    I came here with some friends late at night and it was great. They have good prices and some seriously spicy options here. I personally went for a non spicy option and it was perfect for me. I'd highly recommend trying it out if you're at The Plant! Parking: Lots of plaza parking Service: The cashier was very kind.

    So we've been discovering new spots, to get Uber Eats food delivered to us, and this one is definitely one our favorites. Definitely tastes better than Cane's and Chik Fila. I love the tenderness of their chicken and the sauce is smacking! Very simple, but delicious food!

    Came by for lunch on Monday and it was pretty empty. Asked the worker a couple questions about the chicken and she didn't seem to know the answers... We all ordered the combo #1, a slider with fries. I got medium spice and I thought it would be much spicier. However, the chicken was really juicy and fried well. The fries were really good, hot and fresh, and a side of their sauce with it is perfect. The worker had offered me honey, disappeared, and when he finally came back, he seemed to have forgotten I wanted honey. For me, the touch of honey on the sandwich was the perfect addition.

    I thought it was just ok. The restaurant was pretty slow when I came on a weekday. Only 2 workers. The place itself is very spacious and looked new. I wished the team worked with a sense of urgency tho. Probably about 4 people waiting on their order when I was there. Luckily the wait time was about 15 minutes. I got the loaded fries and it was decent. I wouldn't say it was amazing. The loaded fries consists of slaw, sliced pickles, secret sauce, fried chicken, and crinkle cut fries. I do wish the chicken was seasoned a little bit more? I got medium spice but felt it needed more seasoning. Wished the sauce had more flavor. I've had better elsewhere.

    Large interior with tons of seats. Service was quick. No complaints at all The food is alright. I'm already not too impressed with Dave's, and this place is essentially another Dave's. Portion size is good. Spice level at medium isn't too spicy at all. Mac and cheese needed more cheese in my opinion I'd rate it a 5/10. Not much to be said, it's alright. The combo costed around $20

    The interior is so clean and nice. I think this place opened like a few months ago to a year so it's great to see how great of an upkeep they've maintained. Alsooooo!!! Outside they have their own freaking Lambo! A lambo?! Yes, a lambo dripped out in Chikin Drip everything. I thought it was the coolest thing ever. Lol. Chicken was pretty solid. The cashier Luis was pretty kind and took care of us. My BF got the second spicy because he's psycho. He actually just said that he'd come back to try the spiciest one next time. Yeahhh... he's psychotic. Anyway I liked my sandwich. The only thing for me is that I wish the fries were more crispy.

    Huge! The portion on the loaded Mac n cheeese was massive. We shared and still took home leftovers. I didn't get any spices since my kid doesn't like it but I would have- it looks like it would be amazing. High quality chicken. For the tenders. Massive Mac n cheese portion and the fries did taste good even after reheating. Kids friendly but good comfort food. Or after a long night of fun.

    I drove by Chikin Drip and noticed they were open late. The parking isn't that bad. Tons of outside seating and inside also. A lot of windows, so it can get bright during the day. They have house music and two restrooms; one unisex and one women. I ordered the Combo #1 (medium spicy): one slider + slaw, +pickles, secret sauce + fries. No drink included. The bread was soft and absorbed all the slaw and spices. Though, I agree with another reviewer as the spiciness wasn't as spicy as one would imagine. Still the white meat was juicy and tender. Their secret sauce is pretty darn good. It reminds me of a tangy remoulade. The fries were nice, hot (temperature hot), and crispy!

    I really wanted to like this new chicken sando spot, but it fell short on many factors. For starters, tell me why an online order for pick up would take an additional 30 minutes on top of the 15 minutes heads up (ordering while we drove to the spot) and still not be ready? And isn't hot either?! The items were lukewarm. It also felt like the staff couldn't get the timing right for other people as well, since I saw everyone inside was also waiting for their orders... Anyways, after the long wait for food, I left and went straight to eat. I got a mild combo, which consisted of a tender, some fries, and a chicken sando. I understand mild isn't supposed to be spicy, but a little bit of heat. My sandwich, however, tasted sweet!! And no Cajun taste whatsoever. My partner had ordered a medium, and he felt his flavors were very off too... I don't know if I'll come back here. It took forever to get my food, food wasn't hot when I picked it up, and flavors were not there. It's a hard pass to come back and dine at Chikin Drip for now--especially when the Bay Area is littered with plenty of other chicken sando spots. Price point isn't bad, but if the flavors are weird and wait time is forever for an online pickup, I think I'll have to wait until they survive a year or something. A pro is how spacious and how many tables there are inside. Great for dine in! But if you had to wait as long as I did, you might just go elsewhere within The Plant for lunch.

    I ordered to go. I ordered a number three combo. Huge portions and really tasty chicken. I asked for extra pickles because their pickles are really good. I showed up late at night so it was a bit busy and definitely a little rowdy but service was super fast. Definitely a fun spot to go after drinking. I also ordered the Dubai chocolate strawberry cup, and it was really good! Tons of strawberries, tons of chocolate definitely worth it.

    Medium spice #1combo

    They definitely came through with the drip!! Chicken was juicy and the sweet sauce is a great combination with the medium spice rub. The crinkle fries were crispy and spicy in the inside. All fully coated with a sweet and spicy seasoning! Service was great! The person that took my order gave me a fair warning of ghost pepper in the hot flavor. Definitely saved me from heartburn lol. Unfortunately they don't take phone orders.. and parking is limited in the front. But it's worth the little walk.

    Food: 4/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 5/5 First time trying this place on the weekends, no wait. Very nice diner decor. Food was tasty and chicken is very moist, tender and juicier than Raising Cane. It comes in your spicy level of choice. I had the x-spicy and it's very spicy. There's another spicy level higher too, HOLY... The service is fast and friendly. We got the #2 combo and it's enough to share for 2 people. We got the loaded fries for x-spicy too, and it's huge to share. The secret sauce tastes like thousand island dressing. Yummy Dessert! We got the Strawberry Dubai. It's so good! They don't skimp on the strawberries too. Must have!

    This was my 3rd time trying it Drove to a new location at the plant...Wasn't as good as the one by the airport My burger was 2/10 Too much seasoning,salty and my burger look dry.

    This eatery sells Colombian burgers and fast food for pick-up or delivery only, from a building…read moreshared with the Center for Employment Training in downtown SJ. This is their current location, but I don't think it's their permanent place of business. Just for the time being. Google maps will take you to a parking lot entrance that's closed, blocked by a chain, so make sure you enter the parking lot on Locust Street. I ordered online, and the wait time was a bit long (20+ minutes) but not terrible. And once you arrive, there's a sign near the parking lot directing you to walk down an alley-like path. No signs at the door, just a dumpster outside. Yup, that's where you pick up. It feels like you're walking through the back door of a restaurant kitchen. Actually when you step inside, it indeed IS the kitchen which doubles as a pickup spot (no seats, no signs, I just showed the guy my order on my phone and he handed me my food packed neatly in a paper bag). I got the perro loco which comes with fries on the side, and an arepa with cheese. I didn't like that customers can't customize items when ordering online for pick up. Also wasn't a fan of the pineapple sauce, though I think that's one of the things they're known for. But the hot dog was still good, generous with the toppings and certainly unique. The sausage was plump and juicy with a mild flavor. The fries were delicious as well, and didn't taste cheap. And the mini arepa with cheese was buttery and had a nice texture. Altogether it made for a filling meal.

    There is a new food hall in San Jose and it's filled with a lot of new businesses. Colombian…read moreburgers? Yes please! You can order online or at the kiosk. The menu is extensive with a mix of options (including a vegetarian burger). I ordered El Apto which came with a beef patty, bacon, shredded chicken, lettuce, tomato...all between a brioche bun. This came with fries and a side of pineapple sauce and apto sauce. I dipped my fries in the apto sauce and it was so good! The pineapple sauce goes well in the burger and also on the fries. The beef patty was perfectly seasoned and so juicy. All the flavors were amazing and tasted so fresh. I loved the crispy bacon and the shredded chicken. The chicken was well flavored and they put an ample amount on top of the burger. Wow! What a great combo. I also tried the maracuya (passion fruit) drink and it was so good! I like that it wasn't too sweet. It's fresh and refreshing. They are pretty busy because it's their opening so there might be a wait but it's totally worth it. There are tables around for you to sit so it's casual. The owner is so nice and you can tell he is very proud of his food. Highly recommend!!

The hostess was very friendly and showed us to our table. We had a table inside, which was an intimate upscale casual area with a bar. We ordered the stuffed mushrooms for a starter. It was so hard to pick one because everything on the menu sounds so good. Alas, I have a small appetite. The mushrooms were very tasty and a nice start to our meal. For entrees, we had the halibut and prime filet with a side of broccolini. Everything was cooked perfectly and was delicious. Drinks are on the pricey side- I had a Hero Old Fashioned and the Taylor Made, $20 each. They were nicely crafted, so worth the price. They brought out a Carmel Popcorn Sundae for my husband's birthday and even gave him a birthday card which I thought was a nice touch. Service was slow and steady. We had ample time to enjoy our food without feeling rushed, but never felt like our server forgot about us. We spent about 2 hours for dinner. Probably not a place to go if you're in a hurry. I'm eager to return and try some more of the starters. It's the kind of place I'd love to take out of town guests - high quality fine dining in a casual and relaxed environment.
