Chicken Restaurants near Universal City

“We were visiting the Universal Studios during the 4th of July weekend holidays and everything was crowded and packed. The staff where you ordered seemed tried, bored and not bothered about you or anything in the world. We ordered the chicken sandwich and the chicken and waffle sandwich meals. Took around 15+ mins for the food to be ready owing to the packed holiday crowd. The food was good, quite tasty and succulent chicken pieces. We were intrigued with the chicken and waffle sandwich, it was an interesting combination and good to eat. Overall a good joint to eat in Universal Studios.“

“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 ?“

“No doubt this is among the best fried chicken in LA!!“

“Must try fried chicken!!!“

“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.“

“the chicken slaps! got the 3 tender combo, and these are by far some of the biggest tenders i’ve ever had (def should’ve got the 2 count). I ordered them with the “spark” seasoning and imo hits the perfect spicy but not too hot level. also ordered the cheese curds which were great as well! plenty of parking which is rarity in LA. 9/10 experience!“

“😉😉really friendly good portions must try“

“Im not from the pay and order on a tablet generation. Nope

Wack service, but to be fair the workers probably figure there’s no need because of the tablet. Who knows?

Great relatively low cal burritos! Big burritos! Great music! WeHo music!

They validate!“

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

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

“I worked t Pioneer Chicken #1 on Echo Park as a cook, prep, and last as a manager for 13 years . I never got tired of eating Pioneer Chicken. I always go to Soto and Whittier location“

“We stopped in to find something affordable for the family after a day at Universal Studios. We looked online and saw Blazing Hot Chicken had decent reviews and wasn't far from our destination and decided to give it a try. We were not disappointed and Martin the manager took care of us. The kids had the chicken tenders and we had a Mild and Hot chicken sandwich. Martin also let us try to Blazing Hot 🔥 which lit up my mouth and taste buds 🥵. Don't try that if you're not up for a challenge. It had me on fire for a quick minute and I was glad that I didn't get that as my sandwich because my body would have hated me. Flavors were good all around and pleased with the amount of food that we got.

Thanks again Martin and we will come see you on our next visit.“

“Dave’s hot chicken tenders are great. I love spicy food and the spice level of Dave’s is perfect. I had the ‘Extra Hot’ so far. Next time I’m trying the ‘Reaper’. Thanks

Update: tried the ‘Reaper’. Almost burned a hole in my stomach. This doesn’t feel like a real spice. I think it’s just some potent Capsaicin mixed it. I’m sticking to ‘Extra Hot’.“

“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.“

“At the Shertz TX location they changed me $7 for about 6oz of ranch dressing. Blew my mind. Lol drove an hour for the mozzarella sticks and they were out. 😢😢😢 Chicken was good though. Mac and cheese was good as well.“

“It’s hard to describe how great of a experience it is when you have Nashville Hot Chicken after a long day of work. Do yourself a favor and get the tenders and enjoy the sauce that comes with it. And if you leave a review they give you a cookie. Go there now and enjoy the spicy goodness each tender will give your tastebuds.“

“Great customer service. Great food. Employees doing really good job.

I feel bad for employees because they have to deal with some really rude customers sometimes.

I have daveshot chicken app too. And sometimes eat there everyday.“

“Great for bringing the family together around a real roast chicken with light and crispy fries, stop and enjoy, you will not be disappointed, well done to the smiling and fast team, very clean, perfect establishment

Kid-friendliness: Yes

Wheelchair accessibility: Super practical“

“My friends and I came down to LA from the bay area and we stopped by for lunch. The man at the counter was really chill and hospitable and gave us recommendations on the menu. I got the chicken tenders with mac. The mac and cheese was so good, super cheesy. The tenders were super crunchy and seasoned well. My friend really liked the chipotle ranch. Portions were huge, especially the loaded mac buffalo chicken bowl. Would come again!“

“Came for the codfish Sando which is available in limited quantity daily. Staff are really friendly and will help you along with your order should you need any help with your order. The fish burger is really good and the tartare sauce they put on it is amazing. Can also order a side of the daybird sauce that they have and it has a really good umami flavor that goes very well with the fries. Would be back again to try the chicken Sando too.“

“I loved it!! Everything.. I work a block away and need something that's affordable, that's abundant and actually yummy / decent quality and better pound wings did it. They delivered to me for free, the shrimp garlic spaghetti was delicious, abundant and good quality.. it was my first time and am excited to have found a spot I can go to daily if I wanted too .. drinks could be bigger for the prices but other than that I am in love 💕“

“Muy buena la atención gracias 😊“

“Family friendly fresh food and amazing customer service. Should out to Angelica who is patient, warm and friendly behind the counter. Just a nice easy healthy choice for a family meal.“

“Delicious! and great customer service!“

“The food is really good! I’ve worked at UCLA for the last 5 years and never stopped by. Decided to come in today because the reviews were good and the chicken reminded me of el pollo loco but better. Not disappointed at all. The employees are extremely nice and let me use the restroom :) Totalyl wish I discovered this spot sooner“

“Small shop inside the mall but the wings is fabulous. The service is excellent, super nice and friendly. This was our first time try the wings there. We love the Yam fry also, fresh and yummy. Wait 10mins for frying and it worth the wait. Definitely will come back. Very satisfied, thanks for the great food and aervice.“

“Excellent customer service, the food was delicious!! Had the #2 combo best tasting flavor sandwich!!! Hands the best“

“I decided to give this place a try after having heard a lot of great things about it. Usually when I want good fried chicken i end up going to Gus's but i figured it was time to try some place new for a change. I ordered take out and the food came out the way I expected it. The chicken had a similar batter as Gus's does just minus the spiciness. It was good but it lacking on flavor in my opinion. Salty but no spice. Sure they gave me hot sauce cups for the chicken to help out but i prefer how they do it at Gus's instead. The mashed potatoes i got were good though, I enjoyed the flavor and the good kick the gravy got too. The fries were okay. I believe they are regular 3/8 of an inch straight cut fries with their own seasoning. So think crinkle cut thickness but straight instead. The biscuits were good though too. Nothing crazy about it but it was more bready than flaky if that makes sense. Something different but it was good. All in all my visit here to Honey's was alright, food was good but it wasn't enough to change my mind about Gus's and I still prefer to go there instead. But I think this place is still worth a try for those who were iffy like I was. It didn't know my socks off but it was still good nonetheless. I might have to come back and try the chicken sandwich or something else on the menu next time.“

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

“best fry chicken in town 👍“

2. Owners are very kind and generous. They truly value their customers
3. If you're an Indian, go for medium spicy or spicy. Dont go for too spicy“

“I had a great experience at Jollibee today! The staff were friendly and welcoming, and my order came out quickly. The Chickenjoy was crispy and juicy, and the Jolly Spaghetti hit the spot as always. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained. Always a pleasure coming here—feels like home!“

“excelente servicio muy Rico Pollo 🐓 campero Bendiciones para todos los que laboran en todos los Restaurantes“

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

“Stopped by Bruxie for takeout breakfast and it did not disappoint.

I ordered the Breakfast Burrito, the Strawberry Palmer, and the Nuttle Waffle — everything was fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned.

The breakfast burrito was packed and perfectly balanced — fluffy eggs, crispy tots, and savory chicken all wrapped in a warm tortilla. It wasn't greasy!

The Strawberry Palmer was super refreshing and not overly sweet. It had a real strawberry flavor and paired perfectly with the meal.

The Nuttle Waffle was definitely the highlight. The waffle itself was light and slightly crispy on the outside, soft inside, and topped with fresh strawberries, bananas, and Nutella. It felt indulgent without being overwhelming.

Would definitely come back!“

“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“

“Their charbroiled garlic chicken over fries drenched in garlic au jus is unique and worth the 15 mile drive from home. I normally go to the Pico Union one but this one has easier parking and more seating. They also have more selection but I've never gotten anything but the chicken. It was hot and fresh and as always addicting.“

“Zankou Chicken in the Valley is absolutely fantastic! I had the beef kebab and it was amazing. Meet was tender, juicy, and packed with flavor. The garlic sauce was addictive, and the portions were generous. The service was quick and friendly, and the food came out fresh. Definitely a must-visit spot for Mediterranean lovers!“

“I’ve enjoyed this restaurant for YEARS. They serve wonderful rotisserie chicken. Delicious wraps. I always order the roasted potatoes as my side and they never disappoint!

But today I got the chewy coconut cookie. The wrapping doesn’t brag about the chocolate chips and macadamia nuts! This is one of the best cookies I’ve ever eaten. So good!

Still reasonably priced too!“

“Delicious food, fried chicken 🐔 the bomb and the pickled veggies are so good. Definitely a place to go in the DTLA area.“
