    Very good chicken and Mac. Fries were also good! I definitely would order additional tender for more chicken but regardless, you'll be full

    This is my favorite hot chicken place in the area! The flavoring is so delicious. I love to get the sandwich and tender combo- it is so filling! I also like how you can combine 2 flavors!!! So good, definitely one of my favorite food spots.

    10/6/2024 - Sunday Late Dinner :) Halal!!! Ordered: Shosho's Loaded Fries $12.99 (Fries,Habibi Tender(Chopped Up), Mac and Cheese, and Habibi Sauce) Added an Additional Tender $3.75 Heat Level was Mild. It was pretty hot still for Mild. My kids were coughing uncontrollably lol I thought it wasn't going to be that hot cuz if I had pick no heat it would have been not so flavorful. From the picture looks very little but trust me it was hella lot! My kids loved it but it was just too spicy for them. Both less than 3 yrs. They didn't eat at all. It was just me and my husband. Overall we loved it, the spices mixed in with Mac and cheese and the heat level mixed together was super good and bit desi style to it! Will come again and try their other items on the menu.

    Finally! An amazing hot Chicken place has opened up! The place is very nice and clean inside, first time I seen that location being used that well. The man taking my Oder was very nice and even the cook helped with my questions which was awesome. By far the best hot chicken I've tried around here. Each tender was honestly like a chicken breast. Super super juicy and flavorful. The fries are very well done as well. My picture doesn't do justice. I had already ate one tender and some fries. I believe the portions you get for the price are on point. Usually I feel like hot chicken places are way too pricey but this one wasn't that bad. The previous hot chicken place here was way too pricy and was not good. Please do yourself a favor and go try out this place!

    Finallyyyyyy fried tenders chicken with amazing, delicious seasoning and crusty. The order was not late they are very helpful. The place is cozy and clean. My order was combo 1 which is 2 sandwiches with fries and sauce and 4 pieces meal which is 4 tenders with sauce , fries , toast and coleslaw. The quantity and quality was very good. I love it and i will go again for sure.

    the food already took WHILE to come out and at some point was just sitting on the counter while the guy at the front was busy watching tv, and the cook had to come back and remind him that my food was ready while i was waiting forever, and he continued to hand me my food while looking at the TV without acknowledging me. subpar customer service and the food was okay.

    Not going to lie, drove to Corona to go to Byrds, which is no longer here and was replaced by Habibis. The inside of the restaurant is nice, I like their slogan and thought the establishment was clean. They currently don't have any fountain drinks (the cashier said they opened like 13 days ago, so to be expected when starting out), and have limited bottled drinks (sprite, Fanta and water). The service was fine. It was quiet inside and there were a few people waiting for to-go orders, but the staff was friendly. We ordered the 2 slider combo and the loaded fries, both with mild spice, and it was definitely spiced well. The flavors were good, and the Mac and cheese on the loaded fries was delicious. The chicken was crispy, tender, and flavorful and the fries and sauce were good as well. The loaded fries are definitely big enough to share! The only thing I might do different next time is get the Mac and cheese on the side so the fries stay crispy. Overall we really enjoyed it and would go back if we were in the area.

    Service was so amazing and the place itself is a cute little shop with funny accents. The food was a little over seasoned and salty for my taste. However, the spice is good and everything tastes great. The chicken is tender but crunchy. I tried putting honey on the chicken too but that also wasn't for me. In my opinion, their sauce is better than Cane's. My boyfriend says this place is similar to Dave's style. They also have interesting milkshakes that I want to try next time!

    Nice chicken sandwich with huge piece of chicken. Medium hot was plenty hot for me. The portion was vert genourus. My only comment would be the atmosphere of the inside was not exciting to me and the person taking my order did explain the menu with excitement especially after I told him it was my first time visiting. ...

    this place is off the chain! by far the best hot chicken spot in the riverside/corona area. i always order doordash from them and is always consistent. they never lack on flavor or their portions! thank you to habibi's hot chicken and being able to supply the best hot chicken in corona :)

    Service is really good, and the food is amazing. I don't usually like coleslaw but this place has the best slaw I've ever had. It tastes so good. Everything is very flavorful. Great prices and totally worth it. Portions are also very well.

    Combo 1missing the cheese

    I've never written a bad review and it sucks this is the first. 3 stars is for the food being good. We've seen this place multiple times driving by and were excited to visit. We order the combo 1 and i had noticed there was coleslaw and habibi sauce, which i'm usually not a fan of, so i requested no slaw, no sauce, and add cheese (+$1) TO GO. the younger cashier upfront kept scrunching his face like that was weird but we waited about 5-10 mins, he brought two plates to us, we only ordered one (one had mac and cheese, which we had not ordered), and we told him that wasn't ours. he gave it to the couple behind us and went back, grabbed a to go bag, handed it to another lady, and then went back to the cook and asked him for our order. the cook kept staring at me and it seemed they were going back and forth, until the cashier asked me what we had ordered and they had to remake it. i asked the cashier to make sure he had reminded the cook of my requests so he turned around, told him my requests and said "that's what he said," like it was funny, as the cook was smiling. he also began to tell me he had brought me the plate the first time, like it was my fault we were waiting so long. again, we ordered it to go 1, and 2 it had an additional plate we hadn't ordered. at that point i was frustrated and my girlfriend stated we wouldn't come back. to end, we waited another 5 minutes the food was brought and to put the cherry on top, it was missing the cheese. customer service was definitely disappointing and makes me not want to come back.

    I was in the area to pickup some xmas presents and was looking for dinner before heading back home…read more Found this spot with high ratings and korean fried chicken near me. Many places now are charging like $2/wing so I wanted to see how theirs was priced at $11.99 for 8 wings with an order of fries! I realize I should have paid the upcharge for flavored wings as the basic wings since the original wings were plain. (I guess I should have known, I was expecting more of a house special seasoning of sorts) I was given ranch and ketchup so I wasn't completely up a creek. The fries were actually also very solid, not plain fries but seasoned. When I called it in, I could tell it was legitimate Korean owned by the accent and was greeted by the friendly owner when I went to pick up. Place was really clean but empty on a Wednesday night. GO VISIT THIS PLACE! Totally worth a try. Keep this mom and pop place open to serve the community authentic korean quality eats!

    Late review! Been…read morehere to the new location twice since Chimaek has been open and it's always a rad each time. The family and I have been long time customers since the previous location and we're honestly soo glad Chimaek has their own spot now! The menu is more extensive and haven't been let down yet. Once they've get the okay from the city for the alcohol license, this spot will be poppin'. Still, go anyways. Service is great! I went with the fried wings, I'm surprised I ate the them all! The parents got the tenders and boneless nugs, loved them. My sister loved the bulgogi beef. Music switches between KPOP and KRNB depending on the day you go. KPOP videos play on one screen while sports play on the other. There's also a tiny gacha section when you first walk in. Parking is located behind the building.

I was completely unfamiliar with Halal preparation. I will definitely patronize Al's hot chicken on a weekly basis for a while. Wait, that's another thing. The mac & cheese - the mac & cheese is awesome. Our favorites are the waffles, the chicken strips, the sliders and the macaroni and cheese. That's almost everything on the menu.

    What a gem of a spot in Corona!…read more Service was amazing. Everyone was sweet and helpful. The place feels like a good BBQ spot. Although the air could pump a little harder in this heat. Nothing their sweet tea can't fix. We ended up getting their combo with 3 meat choices and the clear winner is the pork ribs! Tender, great fat ratio, and the bbq sauce is a hit. My son absolutely loved it. Adding this to our list of great eats in the area.

    If only this place wasn't so far from me…read more.. I came here recently to check out this place seeing that it had a ton of great reviews. I met up with a coworker, and we both got their combo platters. I went with the three item with marbled brisket, cheddar, jalapeño sausage, and baby back ribs for my sides. I got their french fries and coleslaw. Each platter also comes with a slice of cornbread. I'll say that the barbecue here was excellent. brisket was nice and soft and just the right amount of inter-muscular fat in each bite. The sausage was good, but what I was most surprised about was the baby back ribs those ribs were actually really good. I've been to a lot of places where the ribs are a tad bit dry but these ones were nice and soft with a nice smoky flavor it was actually one of the better baby back ribs I've had! Apparently, there are a lot of people who know about this place so if you want to die in here during lunchtime, consider coming a little bit earlier because there's definitely a lunch rush. I came here at 11:30 and it wasn't that four but as soon as noon hit the place was packed! Everyone was really nice. The person at the cashier explained the menu because we mention it was my first time there. This is definitely place you want to check out if you're in the area and if you like some good barbecue!
