Located in Aliso near the movie theater and Barnes and Noble.. lots of choices to eat here. Lots of parking since it's a big center. Clean inside with plenty of seating for 2 or 4. Service is good at least it was for us.. maybe they read the others reviews where other yelpers had poor customer service? Dunno.. for us it was all good. Is it like Dave's? Yes.. but different. Medium spice level is hot for me.. the honey and sauce helped cool it down.. you can get mild, no heat all the way up to OMG it hurts.. your call. I got the two strip plate which comes on a bed of rice that doesn't get enough credit.. that rice is great! Chicken was good as were the French fries.. happy we tried it and I will go back soon. read more

Angry Chickz - French fries are great! - Chicken Shop Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

I tried this place for the first time today, and honestly, it did not disappoint! The food was amazing, fries were super crispy, sandwich was spicy but delicious, and the toast that comes with the tenders is phenomenal. The service was great as well. Workers were very friendly and kind! Definitely will be back :) read more

Angry Chickz - chicken sandwich with a tender and fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

We've visited Angry Chickz more than a dozen times, and there's a pattern that's hard to ignore. Service has consistently felt inattentive and unprofessional, often from younger staff who don't seem properly trained or managed. More concerning, during multiple visits I've experienced what feels like a clear difference in how I'm treated compared to my girlfriend. She is His pan ic and is treated well, while my experience has often been noticeably worse. After living in this area for decades, those kinds of inconsistencies stand out. The environment doesn't help--music from the kitchen is frequently louder than the front, and the overall operation doesn't feel well run. After giving this place plenty of chances, we won't be returning. I hope management takes a serious look at training, consistency, and overall customer experience. read more

Stopped by at this location (been to other location in Hollywood) and it tastes exactly the same. The angry Mac always hits. A good mixture of fries, Mac, and chicken. Friendly workers and fast service. Lots of seating and tv's playing sports by the "bar" area. Angry Mac 5/5 Two chopped tenders with Mac & Cheese under a then crispy seasoned fries under the Mac. Safe heat level in my opinion is Mild or Medium. Not too hot but it is a nice kick. If you're in the area definitely stop by! read more

Super disappointed in the service our Dasher received picking up our order tonight. Apparently Raymond the manager smelled of alcohol and laughed at our dasher when he asked where our order was. Took an hour when it was supposed to take less than 30 minutes. Management needs to check their workers. Done with this place from now on I guess. read more

The food was AMAZING. If you're not a fan of spice it's best to stick with mild because even the medium spice level was very spicy. However I LOVED it! The first time I went I got the tenders and the people I was with got the angry Mac.. I tried it and had to go back the next day to get it because it was SOOOO good. I'm convinced everything on the menu is amazing. This place will be my first stop every time I visit Cali!! read more

This play would be way more popular and get 5 stars out of me if everything on the menu was $1-$2 cheaper. Some of the best tasting fried chicken around and the angry mac is perfect. The regular staff that are there most hours nail it every time, the newer staff tends to be a little hit or miss like chicken that's a little chewy or not enough seasoning or too much/too little cheese. Not a ton of foot traffic, there's always seating and it's generally very clean. Hopefully this place is here to stay and they work a little harder on training their newer staff when they have turnover! read more

Was walking by this place and, despite my better judgement, was tempted to try the Angry-level chicken. The interior of the restaurant was super cool and the music was hip and trendy. Worker Cody had me sign a waiver online before putting in my order: An Angry chicken tender with Mac and Cheese. I got water to prepare for the challenge and waited for my food, which came out quickly. ...Guys, Capsaicin pepper is no joke. One bite and I was DYING. The spice immediately numbed my tongue and made it impossible to speak. Cody saw me struggling and came to the rescue with a cup of milk and some kind words of encouragement. I ordered a regular chicken tender with sauce right after that, which was a pleasantly delicious and refreshing after my near-death experience with the spicy monstrosity they called Angry chicken. That milk saved my life tbh. Thanks so much for the excellent service, Cody!!!!! YOU THE BEST! :) read more

Well, let's put it this way; my son and daughter (ages 8 and 6) love spicy food, and love chicken. They did not like Angry Chickz. Personally I didn't think it was bad, but I didn't think it was great either. read more

Thank you all for your amazing food and keep up the great work yall I hope yall open a place in Nevada soon cause I'll be there every week just like I was in California .

Good and easy take out option! The medium wasn't spicy though so if you actually want spicy do hot--they said medium was comparable to hot at Dave's but I personally disagree. It was fast enough service, the fries were crispy and the Mac was good! Overall try it! read more

Usually one of our favorite hot chicken spots but this time was a let down. The mac and cheese was all clumped together in one large clump. The fries were cold and soggy. Not much spice when we ordered hot - and there were maybe 5 little chicken chunks on our dish. We did a pickup order pretty late, around 830pm but this still shouldn't be an excuse as to why the food wasn't good. My husband ordered two chicken sandwiches, which he said were good flavor wise but could have been hotter temp wise. It also wasn't busy at all so we probably just got food that has been sitting there all night. A little disappointing, it's usually one of our favs. read more

Got the angry chicks bowl, 2 for 30.. at that point that's somewhat of a sit down restaurant. Felt like they were rationing the fries/mac. Bowl felt light ngl. It was good but. Not $30 for cafeteria portions read more

If your in the mood for a good spicy chicken sandwich this is the place... I heard about this place and decided to stop by I ordered a #1 with heat level angry but the guy taking my order talked me out of it he said I had to sign a waiver..lol so I was like ok let me just try the X-hot and that was my biggest mistake lol when I tell you it was hot this sandwich was hot first bite it was good juicy and not dry like some places but then it hit me I was sweating and my mouth was on fire..lol but I did finally finish it I will never get that heat level again but over all it was a good sandwich and there Angry Mac is so good I had to take that to good and eat it at home cause my mouth and lips was on fire from the sandwich I was so hungry I forgot to take pictures of my food but I will definitely be back it's worth the pain...lol read more

Love this place!! Great staff and food is so delicious ! I am a repeat and this place is 5 stars :)

I know people come for the mac and cheese but it's just ok. They use a Velveeta-like cheese. Not shredded or melted block cheese like the kind in casserole dishes. We got the Hot, and for people who like spicy, it still burned our butts. I think a bowl could be shared with a partner. It's loaded. Refillable fountain drinks. Open late. I still prefer Hattie's. read more

Hot chicken places have been opening all over Orange County in the past couple of years, and Angry Chickz is a new contender to the market with its first OC location. The menu tends to be fairly consistent at these places, all variations of chicken on or not on bread, but Angry Chickz changes it up with their various bowls, which add a bit of variety. Had the chance to try their Hangry Fix, which is really just a great combination of all their sides in a bowl, and I'd have to say taste wise it's delicious and heat wise it's no slouch. I really appreciate all the different options on the menu, as it does give some great options to balance the heat. If you're at all a hot chicken enthusiast, this is definitely a welcome new addition that's worth checking out. read more

Wasn't a fan of their seasoning blend on the chicken. Of the 12 or so hot chix places I've tried, I'd put them close to the bottom. Both times I've been here the chicken wasn't crispy and the breading was soggy. I dined in and ate it right away. The fries were okay, nothing special. The Mac could have been hotter (temp) The sauce was okay. I knew I wasn't getting Howlin Rays but for my money in the OC, Daves does each thing a tier above Angry Chickz read more

Customer service - 2.5/5 : mediocre. I don't expect much from a fast food but the lady at the front could careless about anything. Food : 3.5/5 : I got the #1 combo and I will say it's a good amount of food for at least two people. The sliders are big and the fries are delicious. The sliders were far too spicy for medium! It was almost inedible. I had to dust off the spice powder before I could even take a second bite. read more

Angry Chickz - Chicken Shop Near Me - Aliso Viejo, California

Chicken was good quality and both it and fries were well-prepared. We don't love the powdered spice so opted for 'country' (no spice). We tried sliders, and two bowls with chopped chicken and mac and cheese, one with rice/coleslaw and the other with fries. Rice and Mac were glutinous and under seasoned, but with enough 'secret' sauce and ketchup, bowls were pretty tasty. Sandwich good but poor structural integrity--practically explodes when you try to take a bite. Guy behind the counter was helpful if not chatty, but the food took an inexplicably long time to come out. Like 15 minutes even though there were few other patrons. A few pet peeves: Similarly, given how messy food is, they were a bit stingy with their napkins. Then you go into the bathroom to wash your hands and find no paper towels, only hand driers, and an unavoidable door handle to deal with on the way out. Ugh. Floors also felt a bit greasy underfoot. Lastly, anyplace whose menu is 75% French fries that offers only little packets of ketchup is crap. Do better. Fried food saved the third star. read more

Im only giving 3 stars because of the amazing reception I got from the cashier. My order which was the Angry Mac (mild) left me feeling disappointed. I expected some flavorful Mac and cheese with the chicken tenders and fries. Ended up with watered down Mac worse than Kraft. Maybe if I was on a bender everything would taste better. Otherwise, A+ customer service from the current staff. read more

My husband loves how truly spicy the chicken is a Angry Chicks. I can't pin point exactly why I don't love their chicken but I haven't been satisfied even after trying it a second time. Personally, I enjoy the chicken at Crimson Coward much more. Honestly I would still recommend people try it out. Everyone else in my household likes it so this seems to be a preference issue with me. I did enjoy the fries and Mac n cheese sides. FYI: They only do carry-out pre orders via door dash read more

My wife and I were in there yesterday and we had the best customer service our cashier who took our order was very friendly and helpful and professional. The restaurant was very clean and our order was served fast. The only thing I criticize I have is the prices are pretty expensive other than that the food was delicious and our cashier deserves a raise read more

Always hits the spot !! Yet to find anything to rival the Angey Mac . Staff is always friendly as well. Art and layout is pretty neat .

spicy fried chicken sandwiches (gotta have slaw!) are one of my absolute favorite meals so i was filled with anticipation & excitement to try this place, which i had previously seen ads for in LA. so far i've tried the medium & hot & both were amazing! i usually get the sliders. the spice rub is slap-full of flavor. i would describe it as smokey with a touch of sweetness & tang. it's a dry rub & evenly coated for all my visits. i definitely appreciated that the slaw was a valid component of the slider, not sad & forgotten & there was a decent amount. these lil lumps of joy are all about balance. the pickles are 4/5, way better than your average but my personal favorite pickles are bread & butter those but seems more of a niche option. the sauce is pretty standard, creamy with some spices but nothing crazy. i do like it's addition to the slider & it's added in the perfect amount; doesn't make it soggy, complements the chicken, spice & backs up the cooling crunch of the slaw. the bread is soft & the overall size is reasonably bigger than an average slider. i eventually tried the mac & fries.. fries are good, def on the salty side but the mac did not disappoint!! i'm not really biggest fan of mac & cheese but i really like theirs. it's so creamy & has right consistency. my only complaint is that most of the times i've gotten a side it's not servers hot. both times i shared fries w a friend they were room temperature, second time borderline cold. the main attraction (chicken) was served piping hot & fresh & the fries were probably waiting on the chicken so it's forgivable. im not coming for the sides, i'm here for the chicken!! mac is bomb though, i care less about the temperature of that & more about the taste & texture which are on point. the staff was very warm, accommodating & friendly every time i've come. & i love how clean & tidy the place is kept. also the bathrooms are very nice! classy even.. though i did hear some patrons bit off more than they could chew with their spice level & i guess wrecked the men's restroom with spicy poop. poor fellas. i do wish they had a level between medium & spicy because i can easily eat spicy+ at Dave's but i had to take breaks while trying to enjoy their spicy level & i have spoken to other guests who agree. special shout-out to Carla, Brendan & Matt!! now that i've discovered Angry Chickz i must admit i have a problem & i love it. i also appreciate the accessible hours since i have a young child & i have enough time to come get my fix after i put her to bed. nothin but love to this place!! you've got a fan for life! read more

My friend, DC, told me about Angry Chickz the other week. So, I decided to check them out... 'And it was alright. The employee that greeted me & took my order; good job. He was very attentive, helpful and welcomed every person that entered the establishment. As soon as a dine-in customer left, he would clear and clean the table. (Thumbs up) Interior - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=fHs-lTm3h2V-m8-B5dzWRA&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ It was my first time here; decided on the "Angry Mac," medium heat. Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=Zxp68QKRFStN2McUcYwPoA&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ It's a three layer bowl; fries on on the bottom, layered with chicken and topped with a generous amount of mac & cheese. The employee told me that this and the Combo #1 were their most popular items. The Combo #1 comes with two chicken sliders, slaw, pickles, and fries. that would've been my first choice but thought I'd change it up and decided on the "Angry Mac." I went with medium heat... I should've went with the hot; uses ghost pepper. The medium wasn't as spicy as I had hoped. Again, overall it was just alright. Portion wise, a nice size but felt it was lacking with the amount of chicken in the bowl. Fair amount of fries, generous amount of mac & cheese, sparse on the chicken. If I had to break it down percentage wise: Chicken: 10% Fries: 40% Mac & Cheese: 50% - Very little chicken in the bowl. Photo - https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=MoSfTqC4aENAXyzVwnNIXw&userid=O6EBodP3Fgu_n67efSKnBQ The order: Loaded Mac- Medium heat: $13 Fountain Drink- Root beer: $2.50 Total: $17 It wasn't very busy so it was relatively quiet in the mostly empty shop. There were three people in the kitchen and you could hear every word they were saying. The swearing coming from the kitchen was a bit off-putting. Since it wasn't very busy, their voices carried through the entire eatery where the other patrons could hear as well, not very professional... 'Kids will be kids but it should be something they are aware of when they're in the back. Would I return?... That's a "definite maybe" and that would be just to try the chicken sliders that I passed on my initial visit. However, I'm in no rush for a second visit. If I'm in the area to catch a movie, sure... (Shrugs) Angry Chickz isn't horrible, nor was it stellar. It was okay. Maybe my mistake was ordering the "Angry Mac," and not the sliders which people seem to really like. - Big Aloha Overall rating: 3 Stars Food: 3 Ambiance: 3 Service: 3+ Value: 3 read more

Mixed bag here, I'd say their overall yelp rating is pretty fair. Pros Seasoning is great - typically have a good tolerance but even the hot was a challenge for me. Finished my 3 tenders but definitely felt the burn. Can't imagine how the x-hot or angry is!! Fries/Mac - really good Rice - so so, didn't taste bad but $4 is steep for a small portion of rice. Sauce - really good Cons Tenders were not crunchy/crispy at all - not sure if an isolated issue or not, but this really hurts their overall score. The combos do not come with any sauce - each 2oz portion is $.35. I get you need to cut costs down and not be wasteful, but not sure why they don't even provide 1 sauce with each combo? Will definitely give them another shot at a different location closer to home. read more

I love Nashville hot chicken and my favorite spot is Howlin' Rays in LA. I was really excited to try Angry Chickz since it opened in my neighborhood last week. So I dragged my husband down the hill to try it for dinner on Friday night. Our cashier looked like he'd rather be doing something other than working there. We checked out the menu and the combos weren't interesting to us. We ordered 2 tenders and mac & cheese each. He went with mild and I went with hot. I ordered to eat at the restaurant but when they called my name, my orders were boxed and bagged. The cashier did warn me that the hot was made with ghost pepper. I said it was fine. I wasn't going to sweat a little ghost pepper. I mean I've had Carolina Reaper. So there's that. We still ate at a table with our packed up food. The tenders we ordered were placed in the same box. Now I'm all for saving containers and lowering costs BUT the spice levels were not labeled and both sets of tenders looked identical. We had to ask someone at the counter which was which because there is a huge difference between mild and hot levels of spice. We were told the mild should be on the right. Honestly, it would have been helpful had the kitchen bothered to label the paper the order was sitting on with mild on one side and hot on the other. Both sets of tenders were served on toast with pickles. We checked the spice levels by taking a small bite of each. The mild was indeed on the right. The chicken was not crispy and it was starting to get soggy. Maybe if the chicken were served on plates or paper bowls instead of packed in a takeaway container, we could have had crispy chicken. Or maybe poke a hole in the lid of the box for steam to escape. I don't know. Just don't serve people boxed food when they ask to dine in. The macaroni and cheese was a watery mess. I expect mac & cheese to have a bit of a cheese pull and the stuff we were served was in a watery cheese soup. It was not good. It was bland. My husband said that Stouffers would have been better. The only saving grace was dipping my chicken tender bits into the mac and cheese to make it palatable. I get that Nashville hot chicken is having its moment with a new spot opening in every corner nowadays, but unless it's actually good with good service, I doubt that this location of Angry Chickz will make it past the first two years in Aliso Viejo. I don't think I will be back. I had high hopes for a place that would keep me from driving to LA for my favorite hot chicken but this place isn't it. read more

I got the mild slider (it's more of a sandwich, not a small sandwich), fries, and mac and cheese. For the fried chicken sandwich, the batter didn't stand out much. The fry needed to be hard to add texture to the soft sandwich. The chicken was juicy and seasoning was mild. The sauce was runny and could've been thicker. The fries were my favorite. Make sure to get the thousand island sauce. Mac and cheese was ok, not great. It's not terrible in terms of a Nashville chicken franchise kind of joint but not a hot place that you would wait an hour in line for like Howling Rays. read more

Got a combo and a Mac, 30 bucks and the wait was 20 minutes (with not a lot of people there... so pretty long). Food was ok! I prefer Dave's, everything just has a sweetness to it. Looks better on Instagram. BUT, 3 stars because of service. They had no more change, a woman came in with cash but couldn't use it for that reason and her card declined. The guy in front went to the back and said cancel the order the card declined and he was laughing about it. How rude! Ok food but won't be coming back. read more

I ordered the hangry fix bowl and it left a lot to be desired. The chicken was okay, as well as the rice. However, the coleslaw could've had a lot more flavor and the Mac and cheese was flavorless.

Today was my first visit to Angry Chickz. I had the Mac n cheese bowl and it was really good! There are pieces of chicken (I had mild) mixed in with the mac n cheese, as well as french fries.

This the old BurgerIM spot. I really wanted to love this place, but I would be lying if I said I did. We came here because it was one of the few options open late in South OC aside from Canes and other fast-food drive-throughs. After figuring out their menu system and what combos included, we found the bill to be significantly high. Normally, when a bill reaches a certain amount, my expectations tend to increase with the premium pricing. I don't mind spending money on premium food, but I do mind paying premium prices for not-so-premium quality and taste. I'm not trying to bash this business because I believe every business deserves a chance, especially when they are committed to staying open. I'm giving this place four stars because it was the only alternative to our usual late-night spots. It's a good option if you're tired of eating the same thing at night. Worst-case scenario, I would return. The staff here was friendly and accommodating, and the service was great. read more
