Wow! The juicy chicken here seriously lives up to its name! Was surprised at how moist and juicy it was, paired with how flavorful it was. Staff were nice, they do get very busy though! Prices are a little higher than I expected, given what you get. Will be back to try more of the menu! Parking and getting into the restaurant's plaza itself may be a bit tricky since it's on a busy intersection. Limited seating inside as well read more

Tried one of the family combos and it was excellent. Koobideh kabob was juicy and well seasoned and the chicken was tender as well. Good amount of food for the money. Would definitely get again when in town read more

Chicken Chick - Combo meal - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Lawndale, California

I was a big fan of the original Chicken Chick restaurant on Crenshaw and Redondo Beach Blvd and lamented the loss of the storefront. While searching for catering for a Noche Buena family gathering, I discovered Chicken Chick operating out of a ghost kitchen for catering. We wasted no time and ordered 3 trays of protein and more trays of salad. We were pleased with the results as the food was the same as before. I hope the find another location and open a brick and mortar again. read more

Juicy chicken is where it's at!! +located on a strip mall on Crenshaw and Redondo beach Blvd (right by el Camino college) limited parking space available. +Order was ready in 15 mins! +I got the juicy chicken with rice and salad. Salad is served with very tangy lemon dressing - salad was very refreshing and tasty but I could probably lose the raw onion next time since I don't like raw onions +Juicy chicken - it's juicy and tasty but I was imagining juicier chicken because of its name. Regardless, their chicken is good and I would order again! +Rice is slightly greasy but very delicious! order comes with full rice +Grilled tomato is good but not the best read more

Famous for there juicy chicken! It's Persian style- so don't complain if the rice is dry. It's the chicken and the meat which is supposed to be juicy and it is no doubt! Service is good. Not a fine dine place. Quality authentic budget food. Inshallah! read more

Chicken Chick - Spicy Juicy Chicken - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Lawndale, California

Chicken Chick is a Torrance gem. This small but excellent Persian restaurant is in a small strip mall. I wanted to give it 5 Stars, the food is worthy but the service drags it down. First the good. The juicy chicken is as advertised. Juicy, flavorful and definitely the specialty here. The plate comes with 1 kabob, which is enough for me, an ample portion of rice, and a side sald. The rice is excellent, pro tip, when they bring out the pita and butter, take a slab of butter and sit on it to soften while you wait for your rice. Then mix it in the rice for added flavor. The salad is nicely seasoned and a perfect complement to the plate. The hummus is a must. I'm not big on hummus but I always get it. Great flavor and texture with a bit of tang from the lemon juice. I only wish the pitas were home made. My buddy was in town and had the koobidah combo. Chicken and beef. Koobidah (sp?) is ground chicken or beef put in a kabob. Juicy and full of flavor. Now the bad. The service. Outside of Marlene, no one seems very friendly. No greeting, they dont check on you, I felt like I should call to ask for a water refill. If they could work on the front of the house, this place would be slammed. As it stands they seem to get a lot of delivery orders. read more

We miss you by the college and have been praying for you. So excited to see a new address and we will check it out. You food is delicious and you are very friendly. read more

The food was great! But never go with 6 or more to dine in!! Never ever!! My daughter recommended this place and we all went to dine in. Nice little place. Nice friendly people. Recommend what to eat (first time there) BUT!!! After we finished eating we got a bill. They charged up 18% for the service fee. So I figured the tip was included. I think it was little over $18 because it was over $100 just for food. So I told my wife that they already included tip because six people. Usually 8 or 10 plus people. Then usually they will charge group fees or service fees. The lady said we have to give tips. That 18% service fee is not the tip. It seems like they are double dipping on groups of six or more. And service fee is usually tip I thought. But not to them. We had to pay for tip plus service fee!! Never go with groups of 6 or more. And you have to tip on top of the service fees!!! read more

If you are being covid cautious this isn't the place to come. I came here a few weeks ago (February 2021) one of the staff wasn't wearing a mask when I entered the facility. Mind you this was before dining in was approved. I just picked up my boyfriends food. AGAIN same guy NO mask. .. serving food, walking around the small restaurant space no mask. You obviously don't care about my safety as a customer. Yet you have a sign to wear a mask. read more

Chicken Chick - NO MASK - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Lawndale, California

Barberry rice with everything with everyting, please!!! You can thank me later... I always order the juicy chicken as well as the koobideh combo which comes with both beef and chicken. The chicken is tender and moist with a great fire grill flavor in every bite. The koobideh bursts with flavor and spices that goes perfect with the amazing barberry rice that can be added to any entree for an extra couple of dollars. Make sure you call in your order because everything is made fresh to order so expect at least a 20 min wait from when you order if they are not busy. Pickup only at the time of this review.. read more

BEST PERSIAN FOOD IN ALL OF SOUTH BAY! Finally authentic Persian food in the area without having to drive to Westwood. Taste home made.

Picked up lunch from this place and it was a huge hit with the group! I got the chicken kabobs and the juicy chicken. You pay just a $1 more to get rice AND a salad. Their basmalti rice was good! Salad was good, but the dressing was a bit too much on the tart/sour side for my husband's liking. So I think next time I"m gong to skip the salad and just get the rice. The owner(?)/young lady behind the register, I didn't get her name, was very sweet, promised me that it should be around 20 minutes, she was done around 15. I'm going to have to come back and order again because I forgot to take photos! But get these things if you've never been here before. Chicken Kabobs : 5/5 Juicy Chicken: 5/5 Order the Cherry Rice if you want to try something different!! I really liked it! Will be back!! Cheers! read more

Disgusting customer service, horrible employees. We have been coming here for years and rarely had any issues. Today I order 2 family meals and the beef koobideh was completely RAW on the inside. She refused to refund me and insisted I take the food bad so she can replace it. I will never be coming back here again. DON'T waste your time and money on people who don't care about you as a returning customer and only care about your money. read more

Chicken Chick - RAW meat, completely soft and not cooked. - Persian/Iranian Near Me - Lawndale, California

How in the world does this place have a rating over 4 stars? First time here and last time too. The worst Mediterranean/Persian food I've ever had. The chicken kebab so dry I almost choked. The beef koobideh and chicken koobideh both dry and lacked flavor. The rice, also dry. The salad, strange mix of spring mix, spinach, iceberg, tomato, cucumber, and white onions? The veggie skewers really threw me off because I've never had a anything super spicy from a Mediterranean/Persian restaurant, but they had Roma tomatoes, white onions which is normal but where still on the raw side, and what I thought was slices of green bell pepper but were actually Serrano chiles!! The eggplant dish also dry and super bitter, nothing appetizing about it. The falafel, also very dense and dry and the strange dipping sauce which is usually tahini really threw it off. I'd say the BEST thing going for them is the hummus, also the cheapest thing I ordered. Go for the hummus and nothing else! As far as service and ambiance, it's a good kitchen, take out or delivery only so if you want my opinion, it's still one star. read more

A delightful visit! I originally deducted some stars two years ago because of slow service issues. Although, we waited a bit for our bill and needed to flag our server down at the end, their service had markedly improved. They still have fresh and delicious food here. I am enjoying their vegetarian options as I had the veggie plate, salad, and rice. On a week night, there were plenty of tables to choose from as we were the only customers there. They seemed to be busy with delivery orders though. I had a taste of the homemade lemonade and it was spot on. Pleased that they didn't add any sugar to it. My better half describes Chicken Chick to be a hidden gem. We will be back! read more

For the older folks among us (of which I am one) ordering from ghost kitchens can be confusing. I am speaking from experience. Order online, or you can order using the tablet at the location, but if you do that you'll have to wait while your food is prepared. The public access to the location is a small waiting area with bare minimum service (you might find someone to help at the counter, but don't bet on it. Ghost kitchens are not intended to have much, if any, service.) When your order is ready, you'll receive a text message with a link and a locker number. Click the link and tap a button on the web page and your locker will open so you can retrieve your food. It's actually really easy once you know what to expect. Now, the food.... I heard about Chicken Chick from a coworker who lives near the old location, which she loved, and we decided to try the new place. I got the juicy chicken and the Persian salad. The chicken includes Persian rice and a grilled tomato. Everything was absolutely delicious and piping hot when I received it. The chicken is very tender, juicy (as advertised), and very well seasoned. For me the plate is enough for three meals (literally. I ate it for lunch two days and also dinner on the second day.) The Persian salad (which I ate for dinner the first day) is very fresh and exactly what you would expect in a Persian salad, refreshing and light. I highly recommend this place. We've already been back and next time will bring another coworker. He's Persian and really wants to try the food. read more

Juicy chicken. JUICY CHICKEN. That's where it's at. Truth in advertising. This is the juciest chicken kabob I have ever had. Very moist...just like Gene Simmons likes it. Saffron rice and shallot yogurt are also very nhhiiicceee. Why the one star deduction? Two issues. The juicy chicken meal portion of rice is bountiful...but the chicken portion could be a bit bigger considering the price. There inconsistency as to whether the juicy chicken meal comes with pita bread. Sometimes it does, sometimes it doesn't, sometimes they make you ask, and sometimes you get attitude for asking if you request pita upon picking up your food. Management, make a decision and be upfront about whether it comes or does not come with the meal. read more

Torrance Food Crawl #360 Chicken Chick is right on the corner of Crenshaw & Redondo Beach Blue, diagonal from El Camino College. When I first saw this place I thought it was a chicken restaurant, like a fancy El Pollo Loco, but that impression was wrong. It's a casual Persian/Mediterranean restaurant with a nice menu with perhaps a slight emphasis on chicken, white tablecloths, and even takeout/delivery if you want. Some Pita Bread and butter (http://bit.ly/2NFQoYB) were provided to start. (3/5) The Persian Salad (http://bit.ly/2JNx49x) appetizer was very good. It was made of chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, parsley, onion, with some olive oil and lemon juice. Cool, fresh, and appetizing. (5/5) Rather than go for the evidently preferred chicken dishes I chose the Filet Mignon Barg (http://bit.ly/2uLuLyX). It came with a marinated and charbroiled piece of filet mignon, basmati rice, and a grilled tomato. The filet mignon was very tender and easily broke apart. There was a very light taste of marinade. Very good. There was a healthy potion of basmati rice. The rice was nicely cooked and I easily finished the whole portion. Personally, I don't really care for grilled tomatoes so it didn't really appeal to me, but that's a personal preference as it was fine otherwise. (4/5) The Lemonade (http://bit.ly/2mCgi3K) was homemade. Interestingly, it was made from limes rather than lemon. So, as a Lemonade it was rather on the tart side, but as a Limeade it was pretty good. (4/5) Service on Saturday afternoon was friendly and prompt. read more

One of my favorite restaurants is back! I was so excited to eat I forgot to take a picture (I don't think anyone really wants to see a half demolished plate of food lol), but it's still the same delicious food as before at the old location. I ordered the beef koobideh and the salmon plate, which is usually way too much food for me, but since it's been so long I needed to have both of my favorites. Absolutely love the beef, and we ordered extra tomato since you can't get enough. The salmon was sooo tender, possibly my favorite preparation, and the sauce that comes with it is always spot on. Thank you for opening up again! I'm so happy to be able to have this place back, it was truly upsetting when they had to close because of that building getting condemned. Hoping for all the best in the future! read more

Got the family package meal of 3 beef and 3 chicken koobideh for &39.99. It came with rice and salad. And it was perfect for 4 people with left overs of meat and rice. Also got the juicy chicken, Persian eggplant, cucumber yogurt and hummus. I wish the meal set would come with hummus and the cucumber yogurt but I guess not everyone one eats it and they were about $3-$5 for each. The meats were all good even the juicy chicken and everyone loved all the sides. The hummus is really good! Better than what you would get pre made. The Persian eggplant was just all right. They do have lunch specials also. I ordered online and it was a breeze to place the order and pick it up especially during this "stay at home" order. read more

Food delicious and servers are so nice (when they had dine in). Portions are great too! My entire family and extended family love eating there. Can't wait for dining to open again! read more

Prices have gone up by A LOT since my last visit, and I am not sure when they stopped including rice and salad along with their koobideh (it was an additional $2.50 ). But overall, the flavours are still strong, the rice and the salad are still fresh, and their proximity to my house will keep me in a chokehold. All of that is worth the (almost) doubling of prices. read more

The furniture is updated and way cute! The staff is friendly, informative, helpful and honest! Including the workers and the owners! PARTIALLY HALAL MENU! The Beef Sheesh Kabob and Beef Barq is NOT HALAL. Just ask the friendly staff what is and isn't halal to double check. The food was delicious! The *beef kabob* is juicy and flavorful, the *chicken breast* is tasty, well cooked! The*beef kabob sandwich* was surprisingly good! The bread is soft and really makes all the difference! This place is clean, the parking lot usually has a spot or two! I'll be back for sure! read more

This is a family favorite at my house when we are craving Persian food and don't want to drive to Raffis in Glendale, it's the best quality in the South Bay and you can't beat their prices. I prefer their chicken kabobs over beef & the rice is perfectly cooked. I love their side of parmesan fries! I think they didn't have ghormeh sabzi for awhile but it's back on the menu (my favorite Persian dish). Very fast & good service. Friendly owners read more

The juicy chicken is actually extremely Moist marinated and very juicy. I recommended a friend got here and he's been a regular for the past four years going more than twice a week sometimes everyone we share this restaurant with falls in love. We wish they would grow as the only location so far is in Torrance California. I recommend you get the cucumber, salad and baba ghanouj and hummus are great. Also, did you see chicken is a must try for first time!! . As far as the ambience, everyone that comes in seems to be well mannered crowd, but the dining area is very very small last visit I saw five Uber eats and DoorDash delivery personnel come in as I think word is getting around about to hidden the gem! read more

Best Persian food in Los Angeles! My wife heard about this place from her Persian coworker and we have been going there for about 2 years. We don't go anywhere else for Persian food. read more

I understand they are in a temporary spot so I cannot speak to the ambiance and service. I will say that the juicy chicken is phenomenal!

Very good food, one of the best I've tried in this area. Will tell my friends and family to try this place because it's so good

Best local delivery for Persian food in the South Bay. Love the ground chicken kabob and the eggplant dish!

If Chicken Chick had a subscription service, our family would be members. We order every week. We usually order the combination #3 platter. And we've never had issues with our order. The veggie Persian eggplant dish and saffron rose ice cream are amazing. read more

Of all the times I've drive by this area, I can't believe that I haven't stopped by here to eat. I finally made the time to eat here, while en route to a Halloween event. We walked in to this small eatery, and we were seated promptly. We munched on bread and hummus while we perused the menu. I went with the filet mignon kebab, with zereshk polo on the side. To drink, I had some iced black tea. The kebab was very tender and delicious. The zerreshk polo was done well, with the right balance of barberries. It was a huge plate, and it hit the spot well without getting me comatose. This is a sign that the food is good quality. The iced tea was a perfect complement to this meal, and gave me a small jolt of energy from the caffeine. My friend's meal was just as good, and we were impressed by our experience here. We will be back in the near future. read more

The Koobideh combo is to die for. The beef and chicken were prepared to perfection and the basmati rice was killer. The only bad thing was the salad on the side. There was a clump of lettuce that left a nasty, bitter taste in my mouth. I don't know if it wasn't washed well or what but that went in the trash post haste. Nobody else complained about theirs so I figured it was just one of those things that happens. Everything else was wonderful. If you happen to be near El Camino College, I highly recommend it. Much better than waiting in an endless line across the street for Chick-fil-A. read more

The chicken is really juicy and tender and the rice was flavorful. But they don't give you as much food as other places. Here you get rice, one grilled tomato and a thing of chicken for their dinner special. Panini kabob grill you get big salad, protein and a carb for their meals. The people are nice and friendly and the food is good though. Just wish the meals were more well rounded and had more grilled veggies or something. read more

With a name like Chicken Chick you assume they must do their chicken well. Food: I ordered the Chicken Koobideh and it came on a huge bed of rice with a charbroiled tomato. The chicken had a beautifully charred orange color. Visually the chicken was nice and it tasted just as good. It was essentially chicken on a kabob stick. Sides: When I order a plate from a Mediterranean spot i typically expect for a small salad, side of hummus and a pita to come included. That was not the case for this spot. So be forewarned when ordering from this spot expect to pay a bit extra for those sides. Overall i did enjoy the chicken and rice. read more

Sadly we had yet another bad experience... the first time was a dine in... rude encounter at the order desk and bad service and the second time was just a simple order with my father. If it were not for my dad I would've never gone back and of course another epic disappointment... read more

It was so delicious yum! My favorite were the fries and rice, also service was super nice and fast.

Rice is always uncooked and portions are small for the price they charge. But chicken kabob tastes good .

I've had meals several times from Chicken Chick, but never been to their location until today. The food is always fresh and delicious. Large portion size and reasonable prices. It's a small restaurant, but surprisingly it has a decent sit down arrangement and looked clean. The customer service is friendly and prompt. Easy parking access considering there's ongoing construction in the plaza. Nice halal joint for takeout in the South Bay Area. read more
