“We wanted a late-night dinner so I ordered ahead on the website for pickup, and receiving my food at the drive thru was very smooth. Simon at the window was super nice and helped check our order was intact. We got the chicken extra crispy and it was so delicious !!!“
“As I was waiting hangrily 45 minutes after I placed my order and 30 minutes after the ETA on my phone this painting soothed me until I ultimately received what I drove over an hour to get. Yes, it's that good. Please order with your phone, not in person. It makes things operate more smoothly for everyone and decreases the wait time for the crack. I mean food. Well I don't know what they put in their chicken, but full disclosure you might start experiencing side effects if you don't get your fix. Consider yourself warned. It can become a pricey habit and there is no rehab to get you off their sauce. Have you twitching like Tyrone Biggums for a "Sando with training wheels".“
“On a whim, my daughter and I stopped here for lunch. We split the regular fried chicken sandwich and, I kid you not, it was the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. The chicken was crispy on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. It was perfectly cooked. Very flavorful in all the components. Very impressed and will definitely be back the next time I'm in SF.“
“Another PHENOMENAL experience! It's Alameda Restaurant week so busier than usual but we got in at 6:30 Sat and were out by 7:10. Ordered the burger and chick sando- both have been on our minds for a while but we always get Trips Triple and it felt like we were cheating but man was it worth it! DELICIOUS! Kind of wish we got the Crab Stew/Cioppino because it's looked amazing but we have no regrets with our sandwiches and the awesome Brussels sprouts.“
“Excellent place to host parties!! Spacious inside and out. Staff was super friendly and easy to work with. Food was excellent! I had my daughter's 5h birthday party here and had a blast! Would definitely consider this place again for large parties! Pizza was hot and crispy with a nice crust! Chock full of fresh ingredients! Potato wedges were huge, piping hot, and super delicious. Best dish of the day: their fried chicken. Sleeper dish, I'm telling you. Don't knock it til you try it! Super crispy outside and insanely moist and tender on the inside. And I'm talking about the breast! Come yell at me if you don't like it. Thumbs up!“
“Second time eating Kokio and still delicious. Spicy wings were not too spicy. I caved and used a glove like they recommended, much better eating experience. Would be nice if the tofu balls were a little smaller, they tend to fall a part, but that hasn't stopped my husband from gorging on them.“
“The Bay Area seems to have nice places to have a good chicken sandwich. This is one of the nice places I've tried. The inside seemed a bit empty but lovely with the 'All you need is hot chicken'. Service was clunky but thorough. Waiting time was fine. I did notice that their fry selection is not too extensive. I went with waffle fries and the regular hot chicken sandwich, I believe medium was the spice level. I can recall there were layers of sweetness. The coleslaw was sweet to me, not sure if it was the pickles as well. The flavour was nice. The spice was potent but not extreme; very comfortable while I watched people pass by. Waffle fries were crispy and fresh. The sauce was more on the sweet side but a good layer of flavour. Water and utensils are self served by the doorway. Right in the middle of downtown Oakland. Easily accessible with public transport.“
“Mikko's Tier List Reviews~ Food - Hard to go wrong with the food! Whoever is cooking is talented but tbh it's hard to mess up this type of food. Price - bit expensive for this type of food, which it was 1-2$ cheaper for all items Ambience/Atmosphere - Casual and quick, not much to say Wait time - None when I went, lots of open seats Individual Dish Ratings - Chopped Cheese - Solid overall, flavors were great Tier Verdict - S+ Tier (out of SS, normie grade is 90/100)“
“Relaxed setting to get their famous fried chicken sandwich with a chicken claw in it! The official menu item is the Claude the Claw. If you go frequently, they give you a card where after you order 10 sandwiches and get the next one free!“
“Oh my the place resembles a true image of a "hole in the wall", but Oh!, don't let the location nor look fool you. The food is absolutely amazing! The chicken will have you thinking, "This reminds me of home!" The sides were delicious too and lastly, the counter staff were very polite and respectful. When I'm in the area, I'm most definitely going to return to, Gus' World Famous Fried Chicken!!!“
“This is THE spicy chicken sandwich restaurant in the Bay Area. The spice level is perfect, they use dark meat (not white meat), and the rest of the sandwich complements the chicken perfectly. Love this place and would recommend it to all spicy lovers.“
“Four stars because they clucked up one of the things we ordered. The Cali Cluckwich came with no tempeh bacon or avocado added on, and we didn't have time to get it fixed because we were crunched for time on a work lunch break. Without the cali ingredients added, it was a plain old classic cluckwich. Other than that, taste-wise the food was good. Also, I've always loved the customer service at the San Francisco location, the employees are always so happy and friendly. Hunny Hickory TenderClucks were delicious. I chose all fries, no slaw, and it might have been the largest side of fries I've ever got at a restaurant. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-07“
“Had the Farro soup and IT WAS DELICIOUS! This retail boutique take-out meat market bakery space is great! They "tick" so many boxes: Vegetarian - YES Vegan - YES Carnivore - YES Omnivore - YES Sweet-tooth / sugartarian - YES Carbotarian - YES Pescatarian - YES (see canned foods / sardines) Their menu has both staple selections (rotisserie chicken, potatoes...), and a rotating selection of daily sandwiches, soups, empanadas, and more. So going there is always a surprise. And this isn't including the dried, canned, packaged, frozen & refrigerated products available. ...Back to the Farro soup, Last Saturday I went and got it and man was I in heaven! Of course I want everyone to go and patronize this place, but my main objective is to get this soup matriculated onto the daily menu roster! PLEASE. I would buy it daily! And please let us know we can get it in two sizes! I had no idea I could "supersize" when I first bought it.“
“Fiji Fry House is between a Salvadoran bakery at the end of the block and a car repair shop across the street. The shop has an American and Fiji flag at it's side, the only decor visible. The food differs from other Fiji eats i've tasted. The food here has it's distinctness and it's influences from Indian food. Offerings: appetizers, curry tacos, Fiji fried chicken, curry rice box, ala carte, desserts, drinks... Drill: order by phone or at window, pay, food cooked to order. Eats: bhajia (9.75) -similar to pakora. Distinct in having thin flour coating, not a thick batter. 4 pieces of grounded spinach, veggies are moist throughout not dry. Has a chutney dipping sauce. Lamb & potato curry (19.75) -crunchy papadum wafer with flavorful vegetable pulao rice of fresh kachumber, pickled veggies, tumeric to soak up masala gravy. -lamb & potato in tomato and spicy masala gravy adds a spicy kick. Very fulfilling. *couple of tables nearby to dine on. **many entrees have a fusion theme combing Indian & Fiji cooking techniques..da best of 2 cuisines.“
“BEST Korean Fried Chicken!! It even tastes good as leftovers - that's if you can hold back from eating everything in one sitting. 10/10 would recommend! Bookmark this place and you be the judge!* Fried Seaweed Rolls* Jalapeño Poppers* Takoyaki* Signature Three Flavors* Large Honey Butter Garlic* Special Curry Plate* Kimchi Fried Rice“
“I've been meaning to try Dave's Hot Chicken for awhile after seeing their LA and Denver locations! Went to a show at the Paramount Theater and walked over to Dave's. The menu is pretty simple with their different order packages (Sliders/ tenders with sides). Went for the number 2 which comes with 2 sliders and a side of fires. It's cool you can pick two different spice levels for each slider! Got the Mild and Hot to try ($16 total). The Hot is bearable and you won't be dying for water (it's Extra Hot or higher that will get you to that burn feeling!) You can also order some of their sauce and honey to add on to your sliders and it's bomb! The fries are also cooled perfectly (and you can immediately dig right in without it burning your fingers or tongue). I'd definitely come back here!“
“We ordered online and picked up our food. The restaurant is all windows, which makes a nice atmosphere, and it was very clean.It's about time we got a NOT chicken sandwich that's made from cauliflower, for a change! It's sooo good! I loved everything about it - the potato bun, mild spiced cauli NOT chicken, the sauce, even the pickle was as good as everyone raved about! lol(Wheat gluten is what constitutes most fake chicken, and that messes me up.)I'd also like to compliment the online ordering process. We got the 2 NOT chicken sliders and fries, and you can customize the sliders separately!Anyway, we loved it, and we'll be back! #gocauliflower!“
“The fish sandwich special for $4 is ? so delicious!! It definitely ain't your average McDonald's fish sandwich!!The 8 piece catfish with a side is what I got and the fish was so good!! Their yams YESSSS! The Mac and cheese got a little kick, tastes like they used gouda! Very good I'll be back soon... they close early which sucks! Yall should be open til 10!!“
“I stumbled upon this place after having a few drinks at bamboo bar, and I was glad that I did! I ordered the sucio, and a side of potato salad . The chicken sandwich was made perfectly, and it was juicy! It just needed extra sauce, which came at an additional cost of $1.25, for a small container (insert sad broke face) . The potato salad needed a bit more flavor too. The service was really chill, and even offered to let me charge my phone while I was waiting! Over all I would most definitely stop by, and try my sandwich with another side.“
“Still great years later. Very flavorful sandwich with nice crispy tofu. Limited choices but what they make they do well. Good design inside with more room for seating than I expected. Large, open room with tall tables at back and window seating up front.“
“My first visit to Pollo Campero was last night. I am not often in this part of SF. I made a special trip to taste and see. No regrets.I ordered a three piece grilled chicken meal online. There is a quick, painless system set up for retrieving the to go order.I was allowed to eat at a table, even though they were in closing mode, wiping down surfaces. I came in shortly before the doors were locked. It’s advisable to not do this.The grilled chicken was pretty good, well cooked, but was not served piping hot. It is marinated, coated with lime/seasonings. I might like the fried chicken better. Next time.I’m thinking, the sides are where Pollo Campero shines the most. I was glad to discover the distinction of the fare served here being Guatemalan. It matters to me.The one side included with the meal was my selection of plantains. Outstanding! Sautéed expertly, bursting with bright flavor. Caramelized/crunchy, deeply seared, soft/fluffy inside. I’d return just to get them.They included a many corn tortillas to take home. I got the roll. One comes with the meal, you get a choice of tortilla or bread.My drink was average. I love agua fresca, and jamaica does not usually call for extra sweetness. Splenda made it tastier.Overall, nothing too much for complaints. I'll return to sample different items on the menu. Lots of goodness there to choose from.“
“Amazing food. Really good, polite service. I was with a group of 2 and we got the Ravioli and a Pepperoni sausage pizza to share. They misheard our order, and gave us a pepperocini sausage pizza instead, but we tried it and it was very high quality. It tasted really good and we got to try something we wouldn’t have otherwise. The Ravioli is really good. The plating was excellent and the fried ravioli was arranged so the sauce wouldn’t get it soggy. The Alfredo sauce tasted like it was made in house, and the chicken paired really well with it. I ordered bacon on top, and they gave me more than I was expecting, which was a pleasant surprise. Overall the meal felt very satisfying, the staff was pleasant, and it had a great atmosphere.“
“Split burger: yummy, has bits of fried onions!Split fries: also yummy - it was a bit soggy/not as fresh as id likeI went around 4PM and it wasn’t busy. You order at the front and find a place to sit and they serve it to you.This location has 2 washrooms which was nice and convenient!“
“My bf and I made a pit stop here during date night in Temescal. The surrounding area is a very fun place to walk around and Burma is right next to North Star; they have a joint patio area right outside which makes it perfect for casual dining. We got the Platha & Dip which tasted amazing. The chicken was soft and tender and the Platha has such a unique texture that went great with the curry dip. The service was very quick.“
“Lunch at The Roost is one of our favorites in SF. As a pescatarian, this is actually the ONLY chicken I eat, anywhere - and it is delicious. The adobo seasoning is fabulous. Cole slaw has a unique flavor that I wish I could replicate at home. Do try the sweet potato croquettes, but leave room for their brown butter cookies!“
“The food here is amazing I always grab their fries and fried chicken as it's extremely crispy and juicy. They have amazing service all the time and the ambiance of the location is just great with amazing decor for pictures. Sadly it's located further away from all the other food locations so it isn't very popular.“
“Hidden takeout spot inside a spacious Dogpatch building. Loved the larb tofu, the flavors, the crispiness. The broccoli was okay, a bit bitter, almost as if the seasoning was slightly burnt. The curry was very oily, but very delicious. Portions are on the small side, but the low prices reflect that. The person we picked up the food from was very friendly. The menu is limited, but if you're looking for some simple Thai food and flavors, some is better than nothing!“
“Absolutely huge and amazing tenders, great service and honestly I love the small town vibe.I came here almost every day in 2018!Vegetarian options: Salads are available!Dietary restrictions: They’re able to accommodate if you ask!Parking: Right out in front is a crosswalk, but there’s street parking and a paid lot nearbyKid-friendliness: Great for kids! People bring them all the time!Wheelchair accessibility: Door opens for wheelchairs! Flat entrance to street.“
“Been here a couple of times and the food is good and consistent. It's never overcrowded and the food is ready fairly quick. I was going to go for the reaper level hot but they wanted me to sign a waiver so I passed. I think I will go for it next time. I usually get the two sliders and fries. The pickles are always crisp and fresh. Good food and service all the way around.“
“Tasty Asian classics. A quick and delicious way to eat a meal at an affordable price. You can’t go wrong with the classic steamed or fried chicken. I ordered delivery on this one and I recommend you do the same. Great deals and a perfect reason to stay home. A definite reorder.“

“All and all it's pretty darn good chicken and potato wedges. I also enjoyed the honey biscuits as well. Another great thing about this location is the soda fountain with a large selection it even has horchota . Great place to grab a bite to eat while you stop to refuel your vehicle.“
“so good! Much better than I imagined! The staff didn't seem to handle it well when it got busy, they were incredibly slow at first, I wasn't thrilled, but it was definitely worth the wait. Very nice people and very good food, although if we're honest I would probably avoid the rice bowls as they are a bit torn. Get the tacos and I'll have to try the BBQ chips, but I think they'll be delicious“
“Everything was so flavorful! I had the chicken sandwich and mashed potato balls. As full as I was because of how big that sandwich was I had to finish it because it was so good lol The staff was also really friendly. It feels nice supporting a local business when it's ran by good people.“
“This is am eating establishment I'll have to go to a few more times. I'd been watching video recipes of Hainanese Chicken Rice and checking Yelp, I was excited to find this eatery close by my employer.can't remember if I first stopped by on a Tuesday or Wednesday and while it showed open, they were I'm facto closed. Decided to try the, on a Friday around noon. With the farmers market in full swing in Old Oakland, I made the 15 minute walk to What the Cluck. I'd ordered ahead and my food, in a bag was waiting for me. Another 15 minutes to get back to work and needless to say the food was no longer warm. Not the fault of What theCluck and I could have heated it an oven or microwave. Opening it, like the dish, worldwide, it's relatively unimpressive looking. Lots of white from the poached chicken to the rice and the light colored broth. Still was the flavor with the price? Overall, it was satisfying, the chicken was moist and flavorful, with a nice fluffed rice with notes of chicken fat. The broth was simple by tasty and accompanied the chicken rice nicely. I did use the chili dipping sauce p, which topped off Friday meal. Would I go back? Yup! I plan on returning for this same dish and a chance to try others.. This was something a bit different from the usual Asians hole the wall places I usually favor in Chinatown.“
“We've gotten food from here a few years ago and weren't that impressed. We tried it again recently and pleasantly discovered it's totally delicious! All of our chicken pieces were large, juicy, and flavorful. They gave us ample salsas and tortillas, all neatly packed. I haven't written a review in years but this place deserves one for turning it around with its attention to food quality, careful packaging, and flavor! We'll be back soon, thank you!“
“I moved to the Bay Area from Atlanta Ga just 6 months ago. In Atlanta CFA was a go to for me as they are on every corner. Since moving to the Bay Area being able to still have my chicken sandwich and soup has been everything to me - a little piece of back home. I am also pregnant with my first child and all I can eat with ease is chick fil a chicken noodle soup.Thank you to the team at Emeryville Chick Fil A for always getting my order out quickly, correct and still piping hot! I love you!!“
