    Growing up in Hollywood, chicken cafe on Melrose is pretty popular. Happy to see one closer to my parents home. Had to stop by & take a Goddess chicken wrap, half chicken, chicken Chinese salad back home. Marisela was lovely & greeted me with a smile & wished me a beautiful day The gentleman there was also very attentive & kind (didnt get his name) service 10/10 They have a few tables outside if you wish to sit in the patio, as this is a pickup order /& drive thru pick up spot .

    I ordered the rotisserie chicken to go, which I believe was brined beforehand. Unfortunately, it came out very salty, and that overpowered the flavor of the chicken itself. I enjoy seasoned food, but this leaned more toward overly brined than balanced. That said, the Chinese Cabbage was excellent. Fresh, crunchy, and really well done. The roasted potatoes were also very tasty, nicely seasoned and cooked just right. Overall, the sides saved the plate for me. I'd definitely order the coleslaw and potatoes again, but I'd probably skip the rotisserie chicken unless the salt level is adjusted. The service was excellent and the store was clean overall

    Got catering from California Chicken Cafe for an event. Online ordering process was easy and arrived on time. Our box consisted of the melrose wrap, broccoli pasta and a coconut cookie. I liked that their website has a breakdown of all the ingredients for each item on their menu The cookie...was so soft yet chewy, had crispy edges and macadamia nuts with chocolate chips. The Melrose wrap was filled with chicken, avocado, cheese, lettuce and tomato all wrapped with a white pita. I know you can also opt for wheat pita. Wish the ratio of cheese to chicken was better though, a bit too much cheese and barely any chicken. Nothing to exciting about the broccoli pasta salad but overall entire meal was filling

    Great food, healthy choices and amazing service. Lots of outdoor seating so you can dine in the sun on Hollywood Blvd. Karla is the best!!!

    Clean, fresh, healthy, simple, good food! Per my sister, she highly recommended the Green Goddess salad and I added chicken for an additional cost. Sooooo yummy! The salad was huge, enough for two meals. All meals were served in to go boxes, and I really appreciated how the radishes were cut (much easier to eat, I may need to cut them this way lol). The portions of all the vegetables and shredded chicken were generous. The homemade sourdough croutons were tasty and crunchy. To top it off, the green goddess dressing was vegan, even better. Can I have the recipe pls ?! We sat at one of their outdoor tables and enjoyed our food. I hope you can span out to the San Antonio, TX area one day!

    I'm a total fan of California Chicken! We were super excited to see one located on Hollywood Blvd on our way back to Silverlake. Since COVID, all Calif Chickens have become takeout only. This location has tables outside and we were lucky to snag one during the lunch rush. One of my favorite salads is the Green Goddess with added chicken. This is were I fell in love with vegan green goddess dressing. This salad is plentiful and includes lettuce, purple cabbage, sprouts, radishes, cucumbers, a 1/2 avocado, lemon, and the most delicious sourdough croutons. We also ordered the 1/4 rotisserie chicken which comes with the breast and two wings and a mini side of squash. The squash is made with minimal ingredients and includes only the squash itself and water. I pretty much enjoy everything on the menu. The Chinese chicken Salad and wrap are other favorites along with the rice wrap. All dressings come on the side. If you're in a hurry order ahead and pick up at the curb where they have a dedicated staff member. Parking was free in the residential area, but hard to find.

    Welcome to CALIF CHICKEN Café. #hollywoodblvd

    I am just chicken in on you, okay?! :D That being said let's begin this Monday review. Calif Chicken Cafe (est 2024) is a corner Go-To convenient takeout meal that you can enjoy at work, at home or on the run. This spot is located on Hollywood blvd in Los Feliz. They serve rotisserie chicken, salads, wraps and sides with a taste of home cooking. I have walked pass by this spot for a long time but today was D day. I came on a nice slightly warm afternoon, I was greeted by Cristian & Carla, staff. I quickly perused their menu and ordered a chicken rice wrap x lemon juice. The food was bloody goooood! It's fresh, soft and flavorful. So good I momentarily forget my problems. Haha! And the lemon juice was worth the squeeze. They only have outdoor seats for customers. Atmosphere was relaxing. Service was spot on. Napkins were super smooth, light and have great quality material. Plenty of street parking. Prices were judiciously fair. Overall, I had a wonderful experience and enjoyed their food as a first time customer. I highly recommend you visit. So until then Yelp friends. Ciao!

    California Chicken Salad
    Virginia S.

    Ordered my salad recommended by a coworker went with the California chicken salad and it was amazing for my dressing I chose ranch and green goddess. Portion is big can be shareable but I would not share in my opinion lol. It comes with a side of pita chips. It's full of flavor and everything is fresh. The presentation is so aesthetic and it's clean. I chose to eat there and there were plenty of seats and shade. The employees are quick and efficient.

    Melrose wrap
    Laura F.

    Amazing fresh Caesar salad and a Melrose wrap all great & tasty flavors. All the ingredients are fresh. It was such a convenient experience. I ordered online, pull into their drive-up service, upon arrival the order is brought to your car. Great surprise in the bag, the outdoor setup for drive up service was fast & convenient. I'll keep coming back to try something different.

    Melrose Wrap
    Lorencia P.

    We had a group of four and the server at the front took our order promptly and efficiently. Our food didn't take long to come out. Their wraps are flavor packed and were very filling. I ordered their Melrose Wrap which had a nice balance of vegetables, texture, creamy avocado, and chicken that paired well with Italian dressing. It was also wrapped in pita instead of a tortilla, which was a plus for me! Their lemonade was pretty good. Perfect amount of sweetness with fresh squeezed lemon taste. The food comes cleanly packaged. One thing is that they only have outside seating and you can enter the building for bathrooms only upon request. Other than this, it was a cute spot to eat a casual lunch!

    Green Goddess Salad
    Jodie F.

    My work had a luncheon & ordered from Calif. I got the Melrose Wrap but was underwhelmed. It was plain & bland. Basically relied on the Italian dressing it came with to add flavor. Their salad was a winner. Beautiful packaging, huge portion & their green goddess dressing was delicious. I wish it came with more of it!! I also tried the mashed potatoes & roasted potatoes. Both were good & nicely seasoned. The whole chicken was decent, reminded me of Costco's.

    My coworkers and I were craving this place today so we all placed online orders and one of my coworkers picked it up! I got a chicken wrap and broccoli and pasta salad. As you can see from the picture it was really good! I will be back

(A lot of thought went into the acoustics & speaker system.) This chic establishment serves up European-inspired small plates, and their cocktail program melds inspiration with a respect for classic structure. The sultry pulsating bass lines that ooze through the speakers set the tone for a chilled vibe, and the tropical motifs provide an escape from reality. It's a great spot to relax and catch a game or hang with friends, which I did. I met some of my favorite Yelp peeps here for Sunday Brunch. We received a warm & friendly welcome from Rasheeda (bartender). She was darling, as was our server, Mason. They were both fantastic. We settled into the cozy couches tucked in the corner and ordered several dishes to share: Hummus, Prosciutto Panino, Eggplant Panino, Mediterranean Eggs, Green Shakshuka, & Fries. Drinks consisted of: Nitro Cold Brew, Bloody Mary, Age of Aquarius, & a Lavender Gimlet. The fries were tossed with rosemary salt and came with garlic aioli & ketchup. They were addicting & delicious. My Lavender Gimlet did not disappoint. Everyone enjoyed their selections, and we had a great time together. This was the perfect meet up spot. I'm looking forward to coming back. *Street parking (can be tricky.) Metered parking across the street. *Happy Hour 2 pm - 6 pm daily & all-day Monday.

We ordered: - Prosciutto Panini - on focaccia with mozzarella, spinach, red onion, olive aioli and pickled veggies on the side. - Eggplant Panini - on focaccia, feta and provolone cheeses, tomatoes, arugula and pickled veggies on the side. - French Fries with dipping sauce - Hummus Plate - with sliced pita bread - Mediterranean eggs - on burrata cheese, topped with secret glaze and garnish. The employees were super friendly and helpful (Mason and Rashida), they really made us feel welcomed. Bookmark this place for a date night, birthday celebration, or cocktails with friends. They have a full bar, the mixologist has a specialty drink list and all your favorites (tequila, rum, vodka, whisky, etc). There is a DJ station for night-time live entertainment. They do not have a parking lot, there is street parking in front and at side streets (next to Starbucks). Sincerely. Rosemary

I probably would have preferred the Mediterranean version, as the tomatoes on this weren't my fave and there was raw red onion mixed into the avo so I wasn't able to pick it out.

I need to reiterate that I don't like breakfast burritos because they're usually greasy and heavy, and one-note.

We arrived midday on a Sunday and we're promptly sat, having been given the option for patio or indoor. We chose the patio, and between the clematis, lantana, and olive trees it is a very lovely setting in which to enjoy a meal. We were promptly brought a bottle of cold water and glasses, and our beverage orders were taken. I had a honey lavender latte with oat milk, and my husband had Lebanese coffee (no milk no sugar.) my latte was fragrant, the perfect temperature, and just the right amount of sweet. The Lebanese coffee was smooth, floral without being perfume, and excellent. We started with the falafel and the batata harra. Both absolutely excellent. For our entrees we selected the shakshuka and the Lebanese egg pie. Both were also excellent. Everything was well cooked, well presented, flavorful without being overwhelmed by any component. We took home a baklava tart, because we simply did not have the ability to eat more at the table. It was tender, moist, not too sweet, the pistachio flavor coming through as nutty and grassy, seriously so good! And it's worth noting, this whole restaurant is gluten free. I would not have realised if I had not known ahead of time. The texture of the pita with the shakshuka was exactly what one would expect, as was the bread of the egg pie. The pastry of the tart was flakey and delicious. And having said all of that, the service is what puts it above and beyond. Everyone was warm and pleasant, and seemed to genuinely appreciate the compliments. Staff seemed like they liked their jobs, which for me is always a good sign.
