    New to the valley as a founder and from all the businesses I've encountered in SF, Valley, etc. this restaurant was the most welcoming & the greatest service. Amazing food as well & good vibes!

    The staff is amazing! Hands down very friendly and helpful. However I'm not sure about the chicken. I was excited to try this place because the reviews are highly regarded. I tried ordering 1 piece of dark meat just to try it, I end up buying the 4 pcs, because they charge $10 only for one pcs. Yup you heard that right. I asked the cashier if I was hearing that right and he verified. Maybe he was new and did not know what he was doing but I end up spending about $31.00 for 4 pieces with drinks and fry's and also sauces. Definitely a disappointment! The chicken is heavily battered, crispy but bland, chicken has a flavor but it just doesn't taste like a fried chicken should be. I think I should have just had the chicken sandwich which would have been better, if you're coming to this place don't order any bone in chicken, complete waste of money. Just order the tenders and chicken sandwich

    This is a solid spot if you're craving chicken late night. Parking is a bit limited and the place itself is kind of small, but there is seating both inside and outside, which helps. Portion sizes are definitely a highlight. We ordered the 5 tenders with mac and cheese, bread, and fries, and it was more than enough to split between two people. Good value for how much food you get. The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Fries were alright; my husband and I just wanted it slightly crispier but seasoning was good. Mac and cheese was good. Loved the cheese and pasta was cooked well. Food came out fairly quickly, though the service itself was just okay, nothing standout but not bad either.

    Just to get some of the not so great things about Chicken G out of the way; it's not a very sanitary place, and it's not at all a fancy place at all. However, if you want a lot of food for ~ 15 bucks, then Chicken G is the place. The chicken is so tender here, and it's a fun place to just hang out after Volleyball. It's deserving of a 5 star rating! Keep up the good food!

    Big G with seasoned fries

    Came here for a quick takeout order on a Sunday around 2pm and there were a few customers eating inside, but no line! Not a whole lot of seating options inside, so more of a casual quick bite or takeout place! ~the food~ - The Big G (~$15) : HUGE fried chicken sandwich! The fried chicken pieces here are very generous and definitely freshly fried! The chicken was super crispy, juicy, and had great seasoning/flavors! It was a bit oily, but hey it's a fried chicken sandwich lol the sandwiches comes with your choice of a side, and we went with the seasoned fries which was also super hot and fresh! ~parking~ there's a small parking lot behind the shop, but also plenty of street parking around the area! ~overall~ it took about 10-15mins for our food to be ready after we ordered since they cook everything fresh! overall, i think this is a great takeout spot for fried chicken! i will definitely be back to maybe try their fried chicken platter!

    Loaded G fries

    I got the loaded g fries, which comes with some pieces of chicken. While the flavor was there, the whole thing was too heavy for me so I got full pretty fast. I ended up taking at least half home. The portion is huge - definitely shareable. Most of the chicken pieces I ate felt more like the fried skin, and not the meat itself. The fries were great when freshly made, but not that amazing once it cooled down. I'd suggest sticking with their chicken sandwiches instead. I tried a few bites of my fiancé's sandwich and it was very flavorful, juicy, and huge.

    It was a late night. I didn't have too many places to eat at because everything's closed. Luckily, a place called Chicken G's was open near me. When we got there we noticed it had its own parking lot in the back, bathrooms not in the restauraunt, and about 5 tables of seating. The inside looks like your typical american diner. On walls they put "This isn't fast food, it's fresh", to let us know that it will take time to make our food. We decided to order the naughty sandwich. One thing that really stood out to me was that the cashier wiped our table before we sat down. Really didn't expect that, a nice little touch. When the sandwich came, I was floored. This thing was HUGE. I literally couldn't even fit it in my mouth in 1 bite, I had to chip at it bit by bit. but oh man, it definitely did not disappoint- it was craaaazy juicy, with a nice spicy kick from the serranos. The crispiness and juiciness really blew me away- it's like a tier above other fried chicken (buttermilk style, so don't compare it to nashville). When we asked the cashier for more peppers, he really hooked us up- he gave us a tray of them! I was so amazed because I was just not expecting them to actually fill our outrageous request. The fries were pretty good, but I was so full from the chicken I ended up taking most of them home. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone and I'll for sure be coming back when my fried chicken craving hits again!

    Loaded G-Fries
    Syed M.

    I really wanted to like this place. I have friends who come here often, and I currently live nearby. But after a few tries, I think Chicken G's isn't right for me. Starting with the pros. The service is typically fast and friendly. You do get a lot of bang for your buck, as the servings are generous. And, when I taste the chicken, I can tell it's well-seasoned, flavorful, and made-to-order. But, I just think the fried chicken is just way too heavy & oily. The breading is excessive, as my mouth dries before I get to the chicken underneath. The sides, like the fries and coleslaw, are also average. While I appreciate Chicken G's and acknowledge some like what's offered, I feel there are better places for fried chicken, even for halal customers.

    The Big G and The G Meal
    Janni Linea B.

    Came here on a Monday afternoon. It wasn't very busy, but the food did take a while to come out. The interior is decent, nothing fancy but it seems like a chill hangout spot, especially since they're open until 1 a.m. We ordered The G Meal, which comes with 4 pieces of chicken (2 thighs, 2 drums), 2 sides, 2 Texas toasts, and house sauces. For our sides, we chose the mac & cheese and fries. Honestly, the sides weren't great. As you can see in the photo, the mac & cheese was clumpy and mushy, and the fries were just okay. The chicken was definitely worth getting tho, super crispy, tender, and juicy. The seasoning was on point you don't even need extra sauce (we didn't even get any house sauces with ours). We also tried The Big G, which is their chicken sandwich with a side. It was so good. My final thoughts: Come here for the chicken and skip the sides.

    Lina C.

    Food: the classic chicken g burger with side is pure delicious awesomeness!!! The chicken is so juicy and outside is crunchy. I got the coleslaw, yummy but the dressing could be less. The Mac n cheese is also nice and creamy. Definitely fresh made to order. Service: friendly and pretty quick to receive the food! Ambiance: cozy and small. Wish they could turn on ac more during the hot weathers but still bearable. This is our go to place as the quality never disappoints! A safe option!

    Ask the Community - Chicken G's

    What kind of oil do they use to fry the chicken?

    premium Canola oil

    Are the sandwiches chicken breast or dark meat or both?

    Dark meat I believe

    Is milk or other dairy used for the batter, for the lactose intolerant?

    Has anyone tried the mac & cheese? any good?

    It's only "ok", a little grainy. The slaw is killer. Good fries too.

    Is this halal?

    Aslam o alaikum Yes Alhamdulillah it's hand slaughtered

    Do you serve bone-in fried chicken?

    They have it now, and so so so good!

There was plenty of outdoor seating, and the service was speedy. You order on a kiosk, which makes for a streamlined ordering process. The food is always solid - I love all of their thali selections. This location was much more peaceful compared to the Palo Alto location. I stopped by on a Saturday evening, and there were only a couple tables that were occupied. I will say I feel like the portion sizes here are noticeably smaller than those at the Palo Alto location. This might be because all of the orders are packed to-go, so maybe there's less space for food? For instance, the thali from the Palo Alto location includes a side salad, which was not included in my order here. The other sides (pickled salad and daal lentil), along with the entree, were also significantly smaller here. The prices are the same, so I do think the Palo Alto dishes are more worth it.

    This review has been a long time coming…read more The only reason anyone goes back to a restaurant is because of the service, delicious food and atmosphere. This is JUST that place for us. It's always hit all these marks consistently. The service has always been beyond anything you could ask for. I can promise you that your water will NEVER EVER be empty here. My husband and I have been coming here for YEARS. It started with a date night, turned to birthdays, anniversaries and family dinners. This place has been so very special to us, that we even hosted our Wedding Dinner Reception here after our Wedding in SF, which was INCREDIBLE. I have to shout out Jessica and Fera. They were BEYOND kind during the whole planning process for our wedding. They helped create a perfect menu and calmed me with any questions I had weeks leading up to our wedding. Fera was also able to add some of our favorites to our specialized menu. From the warmth of the host greeting you, to the kindness of the waiters, chefs and even the owners... the experience is exceptional. It literally continues with every bite you take of their delicious food!! Just an idea for ya: Ambiance: Arya is luxurious, warm, cozy and elegant. Perfect for a date night or dinner with your loved ones.. The rich warm tones of the restaurant make it SO welcoming and classy. Family favorites: Calamari - Perfect appetizer. Battered perfectly, it pairs good with the sauce. Sambosa -The perfect puff pastry the potato filling is just delicious. Ceaser Salad - HELLA delicious. The Dressing hits all the right spots when you bite into it. I could eat a whole bowl of this. Lamb Rack - This is plated beautifully. Lamb is extremely juicy, tasty and well-seasoned. It pairs perfectly with the roasted potatoes, whole garlic and the fresh herb sauce on the plate is (you might have garlic breath after, I promise it's well worth it.) Boneless Chicken kebab - OMG, this is the most tender, and flavorful chicken you will ever eat. Everything is seasoned to perfection, juicy and just so flavorful. We will be back. God willing for many more celebrations to come.

We…read moreshared our honest feedback and we were genuinely impressed by how the co-owner, Fera, and the Manager, Mehdi, responded. Rather than dismissing our concerns, they took our feedback to heart and extended an invitation to return--one we decided to accept. Last night, we had dinner at Arya and it was the event of the day for my wife and me. From the moment we arrived, the entire team--from the receptionists to our server Serdar and the support staff--treated us as honored guests. Every interaction felt warm and genuine. The food was exceptional. We started with a mezze platter featuring delicious spreads, pastries, and felafel, followed by a mixed green salad that showcased some of the best burrata we've ever had, topped with tiny, sweet berries. Our main courses were equally memorable: a stunning Fesenjoon pomegranate-walnut chicken stew with a perfect balance of slightly sweet and tart, and a side of basmati rice studded with almonds, pistachios, berries, and orange peel. Each dish was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, unique, and delicious. But what truly made the evening special was the service and genuine hospitality. Serdar, our server, was remarkably warm and attentive. We had fascinating conversations with him about his world travels, the uniqueness of Persian cuisine, and his recommendations for authentic Turkish breakfast and dinner spots (he's half Greek and half Turkish, which made his recommendations all the more authentic and personal). Mehdi introduced himself during the meal and checked in on us with a genuine interest in our experience, not just as a manager, but as someone who truly cares. When we mentioned we had no room for dessert, Mehdi surprised us with a beautifully presented pistachio-saffron ice cream served in an ornate bowl made of ice--a perfect final touch that felt like a work of art. This visit demonstrated that Arya is a restaurant that listens, cares, and delivers on its promise to provide not just excellent food, but genuine hospitality. We left feeling valued and delighted.

The chai at the register is also so delicious and free, you should definitely grab some if you can! It's piping hot and perfectly spiced. The chicken tikka masala itself comes with a delicious flaky naan that's similar to Chinese scallion pancake. It pairs perfectly with the dish itself. The crazy curry fries were also so good and saucy. I was so happy that we were splitting this dish six ways, because I would not have any space to try it had I gone individually. My friend got the Tikka Burger, and he was knocked OUT. It looked so amazing and smelled divine. We also got the yogurt dip to share, and it was so savory and creamy. I'd recommend this to anyone in the area who wants to try some amazing Pakistani food.
