Chicken Shops near Universal City, CA

“Had a great experience at Cletus’ Chicken Shack at Universal Studios California! We ended up there because I have a very picky kid who pretty much only wants chicken, and it honestly exceeded expectations. The chicken was high quality — crispy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. The portion sizes were also really generous, especially for a theme park meal. It made finding something everyone would actually eat so much easier. Definitely worth stopping by if you’re at the park! You can also pre order your food/drinks using the Universal Studios app.“

“Expensive but my teens enjoyed their food. My son got KFC and my daughter got pizza. From the reviews I expected the pizza to be tiny but it was actually big. Way bigger than Pizza Hut’s usual personal size. Still too much for 1 pie and a drink. Welp, since they liked it, I have no complaints.“

“The chicken and the customer service are so good, I was getting cucked by one of the employees and I made sure to thank him before I left. Will be coming back ?“

“Absolutely amazing! We went on a Thursday of course when they have their $2 chicken strip deal, ordered 25 in all the heat levels (except country) and they are all 🔥🔥🔥FIRE! This is my new favorite Nashville chicken spot they're the best in the game. We will be back soon!“

“I have passed by and I got curious, I ordered through uber eats and their pork got me hooked!!! Now I go here to eat in their restaurant. It is a little bit small so on a busy Saturday lunch you might wait in line, their parking is by Dixie hotel, please make sure to ask the servers a copy of what you need to put in your car so you don't get towed.“

“Must try fried chicken!!!“

“This place might be the only spot in LA that uses rice flour batter for their fried chicken and they’re definitely doing it right! (Not 100% sure, but it’s rare). The wings were lighter, better and crispier. The chicken teriyaki cup bap was good too. Overall exceeded my expectations and the guy there was super friendly. Will definitely be back!“

“Excellent service by Freddie as soon as we walked in- menu is extensive and creative and HALAL. Chili isn’t halal but clearly and respectfully stated- no fear of contamination as it’s stored securely and separated.
Chicken and waffles was amazing- dogs were pretty good- turkey bacon was weak I’d recommend deen brand halal beef bacon as it’s MUCH better especially for hot dogs. Overall would return.“

“Great wings and tallow fries!!! So crispy!!!! Highly recommend the buffalo and lemon pepper wings. The crisp you get with the lemon pepper is no joke. Blue cheese dip was p good (I normally declare it my mortal enemy), but truly ranch is the best for this combo. Parking is super limited, but it’s worth the pain😭“

“Relax atmosphere, awesome service and good food!“

“Delicious! and great customer service!“

“I am 65 years old. We had dinner at Humble Bird Saturday night. I have never, repeat, NEVER had chicken this good. Crisp, juicy (but not dripping like other places), no grease in sight. We got mild, but used the hot honey supplied and what a combination of flavors. We also got potato salad and slaw. Both great additions to an already wonderful meal. The staff was really friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. The place was spotless. I live north of Seattle, but would consider driving down just for more of their chicken...Well, and to visit my kids.“

“Friendly, fairly priced, and DELICIOUS.“

“One of the best chicken sliders I’ve ever had. The honey based sauce is to die for. The food slaps hard. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.“

“We were visiting from Canada and came across Wild Bird while we were looking for a late night supper spot. Upon arriving, Joe greeted us and made the whole experience fantastic! From providing personal recommendations to telling us more about the brand as a whole, Joe provided us with top notch service and we couldn’t be more impressed by how amazing he is at his job! That guy deserves a raise! Was also some of the juiciest and most flavourful chicken that I have ever tried. Definitely a must visit!“

“Everything taste great whether it’s Original or Spicy. Whatever is your flavor, can’t go wrong either way. Good portions at affordable prices.“

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“I ordered half chicken with broccoli & carrots. OMG! Their chicken is so juicy & tender. It is roasted perfectly! They grill the vegetables with garlic oil, extra flavor! I also tried the Southwestern Bowl (wild rice, rotisserie chicken, street corn, sweet potato, tomato, pickled red onion, avocado with chipotle sauce). Super healthy choice!“

“I think a girl named Kelly took my order and she has the best attitude ever like she was so sweet and helpful with my order sliders are fire chili cheese fries with the Dave sauce, incredible and they’re open late! Thank you to the night crew staff you guys are awesome“

“That Thai Chicken Salad slaps hard no cap!“

“The wings is very good but that's rooster not a chicken sum people say a rooster is a chicken but that's no true a rooster is a little tuff when a chicken tast like poultry come on you guys not trying too knock BPW they're good but it's rooster not Chicken service is very good“

“I was first introduced to Nashville-style hot chicken at Hattie B's in Nashville. Although I've never found anything quite like it here in Los Angeles (Hattie B's chicken serves bone-in whole pieces, marinated through), I'm addicted to Dave's, and love the Extra Hot! (I'll stay away from Reaper...I don't need to try something that requires a signed waiver!)

My go-to is the #4, and their fries are great too. The extra pickles they include are a really nice touch, and the sauce is a the perfect alternate to ketchup, and really goes with the chicken.

The staff is always friendly and helpful, and I can order at the counter, at a touch-screen kiosk, or on my app. The app has kind of become the easiest option for me now that I've gotten the hang of reordering my usual. I try to limit my fried, fast-food meals, but Dave's is usually my first thought when I'm in the mood to indulge in that kind of treat. If you like spice, it's a must-try!“

“Great food Great place Definitely will return“

“We were there opening day! It was great! Service was perfect and food was delicious. The gyoza's were the best, not dry, chewy, or doughy. The chicken and beef plate was perfect. Nice. clean interior. Best part? Walking distance from us. Welcome to the neighborhood!“

“It is the best vegan restaurant I’ve ever eaten at. Unfortunately there isn’t one where we live. But anytime I am in CA we always go to the one in Riverside.“

“The family and I decided to stop by and grab Mediterranean food and my husband brought me by his spot he has been going to for 1 yeah or+ years. Upon entering you get greeted by the sweetest owner and staff. The menu is quite extensive and has variety of things from kabob plates to wraps; then burgers and vegetarian options. I ended up getting the lamb and beef kabob plate with hummus and rice. I also got a side of falafel and some fries to share with the family. The hubby got the beef kabob plate and we shared with the girls. Portions were quite filling and more then enough for our family , hummus was so good. Everything is fresh and house made to the sauces that come with it. The garlic being some of my favorite. This family owned place serves really good food and made sure the family was fed and happy. Definitely recommend and absolutely coming back.“

“This place is a gem, in West Hollywood! If I could give them 10 stars, I would!
I stopped in for a late lunch. I was warmly greeted by Daniel. Daniel set the course of my entire dining experience. He offered to answer questions, and really knew the menu. He was friendly, and confident in demeanor. I could tell he enjoys being there! Every restaurant needs a Daniel💙
I had the impossible BBQ burger ( I'm not vegan, it had cheese and bacon!) and it was sprinkled with crispy, french fried onion bits. It had a brioche bun, and the whole burger was fresh and delicious! I seldom eat a whole thing of fries, but these fries, glittered with fresh parsley, were absolutely perfect, fresh and hot.
The location is clean, and they have fresh flowers, which was a beautiful touch. I cannot wait to return! Thank you, Daniel and team! A++++++“

“The food and staff were great. But I had to pay $2 for a small thing of ranch. 🫠 like…. Seriously lol“

“Dave’s Hot Chicken is a great spot for anyone looking for flavorful and satisfying comfort food. The chicken is cooked perfectly, with a crispy outside and a juicy inside that makes every bite enjoyable. The different spice levels allow customers to choose how much heat they want, while the seasoning adds a unique and memorable flavor. The sliders and fries are especially enjoyable because they pair well with the sauces and chicken. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, making it a good place to eat with friends or family. Overall, Dave’s Hot Chicken delivers a delicious experience with high-quality food and bold flavors.“

“Thank you 🙏🏽 for your generosity pollo campero and staff from the laboratory here at Pacifica hospital of the valley!!!“

“The Monty classic cheese burger. Outstanding!“

“I finally had the opportunity to go to Chef Mei Lin’s restaurant creation, daybird! Although she’s stepped away from the day-to-day, I still needed to try and I’m glad I did! The Sichuan Hot Chicken Sando was great!! I got mine as a mild-level spice but even with that there’s still some heat. The fries are a must too and you have to go with the milk tea or the mango lemonade. If I lived here, I’d be back!! Big portions of chicken.“

“The workers there are very nice and the chicken is sooo crispy and amazing I loved the service and how fast my food got ready i took it home and I live 30 minutes away and when I opened the crispy fried chicken it was still the perfect temperature and still so crispy there sunset sauce and ranch is also soo amazing.“

“I love this place; it’s home to me with great food and staff!!!!“

“As a Regular here, I’m surprised I have not reviewed this fine established yet! My family and I literally eat from this location ONCE A WEEK! It’s either via DoorDash or GrubHub who ever offers the most Discount that week ;) unless I’m in the area I’ll pick it up. Personally if it was my wish or hope I would replace them with all of Dave’s. I’m surprised they only have 2 locations. The sandwich burst with flavor and most recently Im addicted to the Burrito. Well done fellas. Absolutely love the flavors the spices and of course your smily faces. Great customer service!“

“It’s slow to get your order, but that’s because it’s made fresh. If your in a hurry, take it to go. Otherwise, the chicken is excellent.“

“Great experience here today. Claudia and the kitchen crew were amazing. There was a bit of a wait because it was the lunch hour, but Claudia more than made up for the wait time with her incredible customer service. Food was delicious as well.“

“I’ve always loved Jollibee because it’s more than fried chicken—it’s a little taste of home. The juicy, crispy Chickenjoy, the familiar flavors, and that warm Filipino hospitality have always taken me straight down memory lane to the Philippines. 🇵🇭❤️ That’s why it’s disappointing to see the San Antonio location slowly lose what makes Jollibee special. Lately, the service feels disorganized and slow, the quality seems inconsistent, and that warm Filipino welcome and atmosphere seem to be disappearing. On my most recent visit, I even received only 5 pieces of chicken when I ordered 6. Jollibee shouldn’t feel like just another busy fast-food chain. The Filipino warmth, hospitality, pride, and quality are part of the brand—and just as important as the Chickenjoy. I’m sharing this not simply to complain, but because we love Jollibee and want this location to do better. Please bring back the quality, organization, and unmistakable Filipino spirit that made us fall in love with Jollibee in the first place. We want our Jollibee back. 🇵🇭🐝❤️“

“Great spot to grab a quick bite. Karaage chicken was super juicy and had the perfect breading to chicken ratio. Our server was super nice and brought out water for our dog totally unprompted. Only thing in this place needs beer! It’s weird having fried chicken without beer.“

“My fiancé and I absolutely love this place! Every time we come in the area we drive 3 1/2 hours and this is our first stop every time! We were recently in town and we ate here twice between two days. The food is always consistent and so flavorful! It may look like a hole in the wall, but it is the best food around!“

“10 out of 10 completely. if you're looking for that chicken that just falls into pieces as you take a bite this is a spot to go to it is amazing and tender“

“happily 😊 surprised. lunch on the run. Good Chicken!“

“Súper rico todo primera vez que lo probamos y súper crujiente el interior súper rico muchísimo queso el sabor 10 de 10 la verdad así me lo imaginé volveré a ir súper rico toda la comida las papitas fritas los aderezos y ami que me encanta lo picoso lo súper recomiendo“

“The waffles and chicken are delicious! It was out to me in record timing! The presentation of the food was spot on. The service was exceptional! I will definitely return for another great experience.“

“muy buen pollo los recomiendo“

“Just Wonderful Place To Eat At“

“I really love the food! Most of the worker are really nice except the blonde girl that working today (on new year) i forgot to tell her we decide to dine in, which i apologize, and she just rude and give me side eye before walking away, sorry to make your life harder ma'am i could've not tip you and not visit on new year but we decide to go anyways and tip you,so why so rude?
Anyways other than that food amazing as always!“

“Great dinning place to eat and the music So lovable ❤️“

“Absolutely hooked on BOX Chicken! It is my go to pick up/To go food spot. I literally think about this place multiple times a week because of the addicting flavors and textures on its chicken. Not sure how the chef pulls this off so consistently every time, but it is absolutely incredible. Big kudos to BOX chicken, keep it up, and HIGHLY recommend!“

“Amazing chicken. Simply delicious.“
