    Messy, juicy, deliciousness. I came here a couple weeks ago and decided to come back since I enjoyed it and it's near a gym I go to. I got a slider (medium spice) and mac & cheese. My bf got the #1 (2 sliders & fries) The chicken in all the sliders were huge and juicy. The coleslaw in them was yummy but extremely messy. I loved drenching mine in honey for some sweet heat. Pricing is reasonable but on the higher end for a chicken place; the two of us were stuffed for ~$37. I think this place blows Dave's and Cane's out of the water in terms of flavor and quality. I can see myself coming back frequently!

    One of the best fried chicken and fries places in the bay! Perfectly fried chicken with a ton of flavor. The sauce is also really good with the fries or as extra sauce on the sandwich. The seasoning on the fries are also amazing.

    I decided to randomly drop by after hearing it from a co-worker. The store location is isolated in a mini block line of businesses? I ordered #3 which consists of a chicken burger and another tender on bread with fries. I was delighted to discover if you want to get the "spicy" spice level, they would let you taste it first. As this place uses ghost reapers which are pretty damn spicy. As expected, it's hot, to the point where it will hurt your mouth. So I stuck to medium spicyness and enjoyed the meal. I have no qualms against the price, this is high quality chicken specializing in spice levels and taste

    I ordered the #4 it was chicken with butter rice and Cole slaw. The chicken was SO juicy. The restaurant had a fun atmosphere. Service was quick! Definitely recommend.

    The medium heat level is the perfect spicy. You get the spice and a tasteful flavor. The hot level was too hot couldn't taste the flavor. The slogan is limitless flavor; but I think the limit is "hot" level. Couldn't taste the flavor after eating the hot level. The service is fast and the place was pretty empty when I visited.

    This was the Angry Mac medium hot and this was of the hook; very delicious.

    Great customer service and great fresh chicken. The chicken is really good and most important this place is very clean. The temperature inside the restaurant is nice and cool. Bathrooms are very clean. I will definitely come back, one of the best Angry Chickz restaurants I have ate in. I really recommend this Angry Chikz.

    Slider and tender combo

    I've gone to this plaza so many times but never tried Angry Chickz till recently. Their options are similar to other chicken places (white bread, tender and slider combo, etc). I opted for their slider and tender combo. I can't handle spice too well and got the country (no spice) and mild. The slaw was good and their sauce is really good. The chicken slider and tender sizing was a good size too. The sauce is like Chik Fil A's but with more spice. The mild tender had a kick to it, it was bearable but I wouldn't get it again. Unless it's drowned in their sauce and I have another bread. Service was quick and the staff was nice. The inside has several dining tables. I'll definitely go back.

    #2 medium

    Really wanted to love this place - the chicken was delicious, juicy and succulent. But, I selected medium heat, which basically meant they just put dry chili powder or paprika or some kind of rub on the outside of the chicken which made it totally unenjoyable. Don't breathe by mistake near your chicken or you inhale a huge amount of nasty powder. Quick service and reasonable if spartan setting and everyone else enjoyed the mac & cheese and the fries were excellent. Just can't get over their main offering being so unfortunate this time.

    DO NOT GET THE RICE = 5 stars Call me crazy but the rice bowl was pretty horrible haha. But I'm here often so here we go3 A staple in my lunch rotation when I worked at Guitar Center Santa Clara Angry Mac is our typical go to but anything paired with the sweet tea (except the rice lol) will be a winner. Fast service. Dirty calories.

    I heard about Angry Chickz for a while now. It's going to open in Fremont, which is where I live. Because it's still closed, I decided to go to a nearest location which is in San Jose close to Westfield Valley Fair Mall. I have different takes when it comes to the food here. The fries are totally delicious especially with good seasonings they added to it and how crispy they are. The chicken meat unfortunately tastes like nothing, but you may want to dip it in the sauce to get the taste. The skin with the mild coatings tastes flavorful. The slider also makes up for that taste too. The atmosphere of this place is very similar to other chicken shops and I am quite surprised how fast the service is. I'm looking forward to dining the same establishment in Fremont soon!

    Angry Mac + combo #1
    Jessica V.

    This is the fast food fried chicken spot #OAT. Canes and chikfila do not even compare.. - seasoning and crunch on fries were perfect - mac&cheese was nothing special, could be richer but fast food is fast food - sliders were solid !! - medium heat is easy to handle for someone with a low spice tolerance such as myself - service was quick, received order in less than 10 mins I think With how expensive takeout is these days I think this meal was worth the money spent :p

    Open faced on white tenders
    Gerald L.

    Solid 4's all around! I had the two open faced chicken tenders on white bread with fries combo meal. I chose mild and in hindsight should have gone hotter cuz it had zero spice at all. Unless they accidentally gave me zero spice ones. But still, the flavor was good. The special sauce is like mayo or thousand island or something. Not spicy. The seasoned fries are what caught my attention. Yes they're battered so obviously more tasty than your average fry, but they were seriously good. And crispy like I like fries! The combo meal and drink was $18 which seems super pricey to me but oh well. Located in a very non-descriptive strip mall in Saratoga Ave. My buddy had the sando and open face combo. But it was spacious and clean and quick.

    Ask the Community - Angry Chickz

    Is the breading Gluten Free? Are the fries Gluten free?

    Is the chicken halal?

    Yes it is

    Is the chicken dipped in buttermilk?? Is there any dairy in the chicken?

    Nope

    Is it possible to get a loaded Mac but without the fries? So it would just be the chicken and Mac & cheese?

    Sure, you should be able to ask them to modify the order in any way you need.

    January 2022: Is this place open & if so, can we place an order for pick up?

    It's open but they don't take phone orders unless it's by door dash . You can only place in person orders.

    Is this place even open? Maps through my iPhone says permanently closed. Website and Yelp don't have a phone number listed and website won't allow me to place a pickup order. Don't wanna drive all the way there if it's already shut down. Anyone know?

    They do not take phone orders, so they do not list a phone number. I work in the area and they open around 11 am or so. It's best to go during the week, they get crazy busy on the weekends. They are in the Saratoga Plaza by the 7 Leaves Tea spot.… 

    Is the chicken halal?

    Yes, it is

    Is this halal?

    Yes, they confirmed to us they're halal when we went last Friday

    The Sacramento location is halal, is this location halal as well?

    I have been here and have seen no indication of it so far :/. Inshallah they will eventually.

    Hi! Do you use halal chicken?

    Yes it is halal, we got verbal confirmation from the cashier

    I've seen a few photos of a specific Angry Chickz employee not wearing a mask properly. How seriously is this establishment taking COVID-19 precautions because it's quite concerning?

    In my experience, the staff does a fair job of it, but the customers generally do not and there is no enforcement. (Customers without masks, not distancing, etc.)

    Can you preorder online?

    Only for some locations. Not yet for the San Jose one.

    How hot is the angry?

    I LOVE spicy food, but almost KOed with X-HOT so I can't even imagine Angry.

    Can you place an order over the phone?

    There's no phone number

The portions are serious, the chicken is juicy, and the breading has a great crunch. What really sets them apart for me is the spice. I've had levels 3, 4, and 5, and they're not simply the same seasoning with progressively more heat. Each level actually has a different pepper profile and flavor. Level 3 brings cayenne and Thai chili, level 4 moves into Thai chili and habanero, and level 5 adds habanero and ghost pepper. You can taste the difference, not just feel more burn. The seasoned fries are great too and they definitely don't skimp on the portions. It is a little pricey for a chicken sandwich and fries, but when you see the size and quality of what you're getting, I think it's worth it. Scratch is easily one of my favorite hot chicken spots.

The only star off was for the spice-level calibration. Great food and portions, and we'll definitely be back!

This time, at one of their brick and mortar locations, there were many pros and cons. For one, I love that they actually put the "hot" in nashville hot chicken. Their medium packs a small punch unlike similar spots which are overly mild. Second, the fries and sauce here are amazing!!! The thick crinkle cut fries are not my favorite style usually, but here they make em so crispy with a soft pillowy center. Also so well-seasoned. I also like the seasoning on the hot chicken- it's less salty than most places and more of a real chili pepper flavor to it. Now for what wasn't my favorite: the chicken was a tad bit on the dryer side and the batter was an in-between of crispy and stale. The loaded mac came with both fries and mac n cheese.
