Jay Bird's Chicken

Are the sandwiches dairy free?

It’s not dairy free.

Are there any vegan/vegetarian options?

Sides - fries, potato salad, mac n cheese, coleslaw

There was a cashier to wear a proper fitting mask when I went to go eat there, which I believe is out of compliance of the Health Department and could result in serious action. How is Jay Bird's handling public safety as an establishment?

We will address this with the team right away. Thank you for the feedback.

Is it open on New Year's Day?

Yes we are open regular hours today.

Do you use the actual reaper pepper?

Yes we do have reaper pepper. It’s dried and in powder form. We don’t serve the whole fresh pepper. Thank you

Are there any non-breaded options for gluten-sensitive individuals?

No. All of the chicken is battered.

***UPDATE FOLLOWING DIANA M'S *EDITED* RESPONSE***…read more After deleting her prior response to this review, she is now just focusing on the complaint about the online service fee. I never suggested that it was a "hidden fee", I just pointed out that it is a very high fee for ordering online. As pointed out before, ordering online directly from a restaurant does not usually incur a fee, let alone a $6 fee. If Diana feels that ordering online is so onerous, then maybe she should deactivate that feature and encourage her customers to phone in their orders. Diana should also consider not badgering customers that did not have a good experience with her restaurant and consider taking some classes in Customer Service 101. It's not a good way to run a business and the fastest way to lose customers. ***UPDATE FOLLOWING DIANA M's RESPONSE*** It's unfortunate that the owner responded with excuses and condescension. A simple "Hey, sorry for the mishap, we will make sure it won't happen again" would have sufficed. At least that way, she likely would have had a returning customer since the food is good. But now, no way Jose. And the $5.00 online service fee is egregious. I order quite a bit online and always try to order directly through the restaurants website to avoid fees. I don't know if any other restaurants that charge fees to order online unless there is a delivery involved. --------------------------- Well, not sure what to say. We put in an online order last night, which went through with a $4.95 service fee. (We ordered through their direct site rather than a third party sight to save on fees) If that wasn't bad enough, I showed up at the designated pick up time, and the place was closed. WTF? About an hour later, we were refunded our money, but why is the website taking orders and collecting payments when you're not even open? Talk about inconvenience. And clearly their posted operating hours are inconsistent.

The service was good and the rotisserie chicken was solid, but the sides were not. The PCH here is quite busy with cars, so good that there is a small dedicated parking lot. One orders and pay from the window, and there are 4 cafeteria style tables indoors. It took about 5 minutes for the order to be prepared, and was well wrapped for carry out. The mini-pak ($22.99) consists of one whole, chopped up chicken with sides of beans, potato salad, and chicken rice. It comes with tortillas and salsa. The one outstanding thing about the meal was the well crisped and flavorful chicken skin. As for the meat, the dark thigh meat was really good, the white meat OK, but the drumstick meat was dry/gummy/mealy. And the chicken size was about the one that comes from a regular grocery store (not Costco). I liked the potato salad, as the potato pieces were chopped pretty fine, and the chicken rice did have chicken pieces in it, but wasn't particularly flavorful. The beans were bland, and the tortillas even more so. There is a more famous grilled chicken chain, that is closer, cheaper, and somewhat better tasting for me. Always good to try new places though.

The hot sauce is over power of vignette so a it too sour for me but not enough spicy. The fish, however is perfectly cooked and coded. Juicy inside and perfectly thin crusty outside. The tartar sauce is abit off for me but eating by itself is just fine for me. Fries are good but I'm not into it so..but perfectly cooked and crunchy and pipping hot. For me, the fish here is WAY much better than the chicken from the size, the taste and the favor...so good. Also, if you want dessert after the meal, they do have donuts so perfect place for the whole meal for sure.

Parking is a bit of a game of chance thanks to the tiny lot, so plan accordingly. Once you're inside though, the restaurant is super clean, modern, and the service is fast and attentive. We started with the papaya salad. It was just okay--I'm still trying to figure out why there was a blanket of romaine lettuce casually lounging on top. I ordered medium spice, which turned out to be "medium if you breathe fire for fun." The papaya was also a little more raw than I personally like. The tom kha soup was decent, but the real MVP was the drunken noodles with beef. Those noodles were absolutely swimming in savory goodness and perfectly soft. I would've happily ordered a second plate and called it "dessert." Overall, I'd definitely come back--mostly because those drunken noodles are already living rent-free in my head.

My family and I were heading to the Aquarium of the Pacific and wanted to find a good dinner spot…read morenearby afterward. I came across this place on TikTok because of their famous Thai tea popsicle, so naturally I had high hopes. First off, we got incredibly lucky with parking. I can definitely see how parking could be a nightmare since the lot is tiny, so consider finding a spot part of the dining experience. When we arrived, the inside was cute and seemed clean. We were seated outside, which also looked nice at first glance, but I noticed quite a few spider webs around the windows. My boyfriend even felt webs brushing against his arm while we were sitting there, which wasn't exactly the extra ambiance we were expecting. We ordered quite a bit: spicy Pad Thai, Bang Bang Shrimp, Pad See Ew, mango sticky rice, and of course the Thai tea with the popsicle. I'll give credit where it's due. The Bang Bang Shrimp was easily the best thing we ordered and was absolutely delicious. The Thai tea popsicle also lived up to the TikTok hype, although the actual Thai tea itself was on the sweeter side. If you love sugar, you'll probably enjoy it. My biggest complaint with the food was the spicy Pad Thai. The flavor was great, but it came with what felt like a whole chicken farm and a cameo appearance from the noodles. I ordered Pad Thai, not chicken with noodle garnish. The Pad See Ew was also noticeably salty. Now you're probably wondering why I'm giving this place a low rating if most of the food was decent. Unfortunately, the service completely overshadowed the meal. When it was time to pay, my aunt was figuring out how much everyone needed to Zelle her since the restaurant only allows a maximum of two cards for split payments. While we were trying to do the math, our waiter stood over us watching the payment screen like he was supervising a final exam. He was clearly waiting to make sure a tip was entered. My aunt politely asked him to give us a minute, and thankfully he walked away. Maybe when you see a family actively calculating a bill, that's your cue to...actually give them a minute. Keep in mind we also tipped 20% despite all this. Throughout the meal, he did stop by our table, but it rarely felt like he was checking in to make sure everything was okay. If anything I felt rushed. He also gave off that "customer service smile" that disappears the moment you stop looking. The cherry on top for me happened as we were leaving. We had been sitting on the outdoor patio talking for a bit after paying, which is pretty normal for my family. Before leaving, I went inside to ask where the restroom was. The guy and girl behind the bar looked at each other, laughed, and then asked if I was a paying customer. Keep in mind, I was literally holding a to-go bag with leftovers from the restaurant. I responded, "Yeah, I just finished eating," while holding up the bag that made it painfully obvious. Only then did they tell me where the restroom was. Nothing says "valued customer" quite like being interrogated about whether you actually ate there while carrying your leftovers. It's unfortunate because the food had some highlights, and the restaurant itself has a cute atmosphere. But the service made it feel like customers are viewed more as transactions than guests. Between hovering over us during payment and questioning whether I even belonged there after spending money, I left feeling more unwelcomed than satisfied. I'll happily support a restaurant that appreciates my business instead of making me feel like I have to prove I earned the right to use the restroom after paying for dinner.

I showed up around 5pm and sure enough there was already a line forming in front of the restaurant. The restaurant is located around a neighborhood, so you have to find street parking, which can be challenging. I already did my research on what I wanted to order, so my process went fairly smoothly. I imagine some other people were not as prepared and asked a lot of questions at the counter which can make the wait time even longer for other people in line. We ordered caesar salad, pizza focaccia with soppressata, squid ink tonnerelli, and ribeye tagliata. We also ordered some glasses of wine. After ordering, they walked us to our table inside. This location used to be a bbq restaurant- shady grove- before they closed down. And wow I was so impressed by the change of the patio vibe. It looked way nicer now under Due Fuori. I truly believe the vibe of a restaurant is equally important to the quality of the food, and this place nailed it. Also, apparently you can still order more stuff even after you're seated. They don't really have dedicated server for each table but the service was pretty efficient in my opinion. Now the food, everything was delicious, I have no notes! Caesar salad, very good. Pizza, omg amazing. And I'm not a pizza kinda person, so this is really a compliment! It's the thick kind of pizza, and they put some honey on it too which makes it even more delicious to me. Next was the squid ink pasta, another delightful dish. My only complaint is that it's not big enough of a portion, haha! The ribeye tagliata was so good. It was served with some salad that's very refreshing. The server explained to us that the original dish comes with the greens and cherry tomatoes underneath the meat, but they serve it separately to keep the freshness and crunch. The meat has some nice crust on the outside, very flavorful. We ended up taking some of the ribeye home, as we were already really full. It was plenty of food to share between two people. I definitely will come back to try other dishes, especially the other popular pasta dishes. This place has been really popular and I heard the line is still long even after a few months (or maybe it has been a year now?). Definitely recommend this place to anyone who loves Italian food in town. Very hip, vibey place, and delicious food!

Jay Bird's Chicken: Holy Heat, Heavenly Mac & Cheese! Let me tell you, Jay Bird's Chicken ain't for the faint of heart! But if you're a spice adventurer with a love for crispy, juicy chicken, then this is your paradise. The Mac Daddy lives up to its name. The chicken is perfectly cooked, and the mac n' cheese on top is creamy, cheesy heaven. It's the perfect balance of richness and heat. Speaking of heat... The Carolina Reaper Tender deserves a warning label. One bite and I was tearing up, but in a good way! The spice is intense, but it's a slow burn that builds with each delicious mouthful. Just make sure you have a drink handy. Pro tip: Don't skip the blazin' fries. These crinkle-cut beauties are loaded with mac n' cheese and chopped tenders, turning them into a flavor explosion. You won't regret it (unless you have a low spice tolerance, then maybe share them!). But fear not, spice-averse friends! Jay Bird's also offers some amazingly fluffy waffles. They're the perfect sweet counterpart to all that savory goodness. Overall, Jay Bird's Chicken is a must-try for anyone who loves delicious, flavorful chicken. Just be prepared for a fiery adventure (and maybe some napkins)! read more

Ready to embark on a culinary journey that'll leave you craving more? My recent visit to Jay's Bird Chicken was a flavor-packed adventure I can't wait to share. The service at Jay's Bird Chicken was top-notch, ensuring that every moment of our dining experience was truly unforgettable. For the main course, I couldn't resist trying the "Mac Daddy" sandwich, one of their most popular dishes. Juicy, crispy chicken paired with homemade mac n' cheese, drizzled with comeback sauce, all nestled between a perfectly toasted brioche bun. This sandwich was a flavor explosion that I'll remember. To wash it down, I enjoyed a refreshing bottle of Coke. While the experience was enjoyable, I found the value somewhat lacking. The quality of the food didn't quite match the price point. The fries were a bit mushy, and the chicken, although crispy, had a touch of dryness. Personally, I prefer my meat juicier. Despite these minor drawbacks, Jay's Bird Chicken is a place worth trying. If you're in the mood for a delightful comfort food experience, don't miss out on this popular eatery. Your taste buds will thank you! read more

Let's start with the food. I had the sandwich which was as delicious. I had the medium heat and it was as just the right amount of spice for me. I wasn't big on the creamy slaw, sweet pickles or their comeback sauce, but that's just me and the sandwich actually came together really well and it was delicious. The Mac n cheese wasn't my favorite, but Mac n cheese is a polarizing side. The fries are well seasoned and crinkle cut. I didn't love the comeback sauce, but the ketchup they had was fire! The service was good. Even though they were swamped, their crew took time to chat and pushed our orders at a solid pace! One suggestion, especially at a spot like the Hanger, the little pagers May come in useful instead of the number calling. It's great to have a Nashville hot chicken spot in Long Beach. I'm sure these guys will level out in terms of consistency. Keep up the awesome work! Pro tip: if you can, sit at their counter top, the people there are engaging and it's great to watch them work. read more

Came here on 12/27/19 at 11:20am Friday after my flight from Nevada. My cousin and I wanted to try this spot jay birds for our first time asked the cashier for recommendations and she guided us to the most popular items. I ordered the chicken sandwich medium with cole slaw and my cousin got the same with the loaded fries. Sitting at the bar watching the line guys making the food Food came out quick, service was great. Everyone was communicating very well. We was even asked multiple times how was the food and it was fireeee. Asian dude with the stash gifted us a waffle. read more

I've been wanting to try Jay Bird's since the minute it opened. My friend and I went for lunch and we were absolutely disgusted. The 2 men prepping the food were also picking receipts off the ground! Tons of risk for cross contamination. I politely explained to them that what they were doing is unhygienic. Instead of agreeing with me, they gave me a dirty look and tried to justify their actions. We left and won't return. Management: please train your employees to not pick things off the ground and handle food. We don't want to get sick! read more

I was tired of chicken places that claim to be spicy and have no heat. Jay Bird's uses Carolina Reapers for their Fire heat level, and while it wasn't unbearable it was definitely one of the hotter sandwiches I've eaten. Good pickle/coleslaw combo on top with their house sauce topped it off. Their cashier also came to our table in the middle of the food court to ask me how the sandwich was and how long our wait was today which was only about 10 minutes. Good experience and would definitely come back. read more

As a lover of fried chicken and spicy food, this is a must have whenever I'm in Long Beach. I got the medium fried chicken, and it was delicious; some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. The chicken is nice and juicy, it has a nice kick that lingers, but not to the point of not being able to eat, and the side of Mac n cheese was off the chain. I would recommend this to anyone in the area looking for an affordable and delicious stop that is sure to satisfy. read more

One of the best chicken sandwiches out there, you get a whole chicken breast and the flavor is just spot on every time. I've tried looking for another chicken sandwich spot since moving and nothing compares, so I actually make the 30min drive just for this chicken sandwich. I get it mild spicy, big sexy style, with cheese and cut in half. I get full off of half, I also order their fries well done and it hits the spot every time. You have to try this place. read more

I stopped by this place a few weeks and ago while in town and Im still having cravings. I got the chicken sandwich and fries, the chicken was plump and juicy and the spice (medium) was perfect. Be careful if you get the hot it is defiantly on the hotter side. I would highly recommend this place to others and I just wish I didn't live 3 hours from this place, can't wait to go back tho :P read more

This is such a great restaurant and location! Employees here are very friendly and helped me choose something. Their quality is amazing and it's the best chicken sandwich I've had in a long time. A lot of my favorite places either downsized or changed quality. Not this one. I also love their coleslaw. Come here to be happy about chicken sandwiches again. read more

Chicken's tender enough and the breading with flavor is obvious enough but the entire taste doesn't quite come together. With the initial bite, breading falls apart and the chicken itself looses much of the flavor. And, the waffle part of their chicken and waffle is actually a slice of boring white bread. 3 chicken pieces: $17 after tax and $1 tip. read more

What a rip off!! Almost $50 for 2 people for lunch. It's very pricey just because they need to pay the rent. Their sandwich is just average like most of any other stores like the Habit Grill or In and Out. I asked for a cup of water and they said Ok water and gave me a bottle water for $2. read more

I found this spot because of the yelp community. I am a person who does not eat Red Meat, so finding a good hamburger close to home can be a bit of a task. This little spot (No really it is little) is located on a corner and if your not carefully you will past it. It doesn't look like much but there is always somebody arriving or leaving for this spot. It's a 10/10 recommend. I have taken several people to this spot and they love it. The menu is simple, it giving "Pinky's" vibes but with a better taste, Yep I said it. I believe the gentlemen that is always working is the owner of the restaurant, he told me his name but I have forgotten it, Sorry! He is friendly and is mostly always here. I usually order Number 2 with a veggie patty and grilled onions and everything else including pickles. The fries are always hot and crispy. The pink lemonade is a little too sweet for me so I add a little water and that does the trick, but that's a me issue. I've ever have to wait long. I usually pull up, park in front, jump out and wait about 15 minutes then I'm driving back home with fires in one hand and the other on my steeling wheel with no cares in the world.

Food: I ordered the chorizo breakfast burrito, and it truly stood out. The chorizo was rich, savory, and well balanced with a deep, seasoned flavor profile that was not overpowering. The temperature was spot on, warm throughout without being overly hot or uneven. The cheese was perfectly melted with a smooth, cohesive texture that was evenly distributed in every bite. Each component worked in harmony, creating a burrito that was both satisfying and indulgent. It was filling to the point where I did not want to stop eating it, easily a highlight of their menu. The organic orange juice complemented the meal beautifully. It had a fresh, vibrant citrus profile that tasted like it had been squeezed that same morning. Bright, clean, and refreshing. Environment: The space was clean, busy, and very accommodating when it came to seating. Despite the crowd, everything felt organized and welcoming. The ambiance struck a great balance with low to moderate noise, making it comfortable for conversation while still feeling lively. The lighting and decor were simple and effective. Natural sunlight filled the space since there was no heavy window advertising blocking it out. Clean ceiling fans circulated a fresh, easy breeze that made the environment feel open and comfortable. I could genuinely see this place being used as a film location with its authentic and inviting aesthetic. Cleanliness: Details matter here and it shows. The tables were wiped down thoroughly and paired with sturdy, well maintained booth seating. No cracks or worn out surfaces. All condiments at the table were fully stocked, clean, and easy to use. The floors were tidy and well kept, and even the parking area was clean and easy to navigate. Overall: This is a place that clearly understands its customer base. Families, kids, and hardworking locals all feel at home here, and you can tell it has a strong, loyal following. The combination of quality food, thoughtful service, and attention to detail makes it stand out. I will absolutely be coming back to eat here again.

Before arriving, we confirmed that their patio was pet-friendly, which I appreciated. However, I wasn't fond of the service. I felt rushed by the older woman who was helping us, and she even cut me off mid-sentence. I ordered the grilled chicken club, while my boyfriend ordered a small chili cheese fries. I also ordered three sides of thousand island dressing and a burger patty for our fur baby. My fries were stale and seemed to have been refried. The chicken club itself was decent. Unfortunately, I developed a really bad stomachache afterward that lasted for the rest of the day. Between the service, the food quality, and what I suspect may have been food poisoning, I won't be returning.

I listened to orders being placed as she continuously greeted customers. At one time I did hear a couple of customers order a dinner and I heard her ask if they wanted fries, salad or half of each. Their online menu does not indicate the sides available. It was at this time, 9 minutes later hung up. I tried to call back and the line was obviously busy. I placed my order online for burgers and fries and drove to pick my order up. It's not what I wanted but I knew what I was getting. When I arrived at the restaurant i asked her name. She said, Kate. I explained what happened and she indicated she forgot about the call. I told her good customer service would have been for her to come back to the phone if even to say, I hadn't forgot about you and will be with you shortly. She admitted I hadn't forgot a valid point. I ordered 2 burgers, a double cheeseburger and a bacon cheeseburger both with fries. To make matters worse the cheese was not even melted on the burger. Just a cold slice of cheese on both burgers. I had bit into the burger before realizing the cheese was cold and not melted or soft. I'm going to give Poly Burgers a rest. Today's experience was frustrating.

Arriving home, upon opening the to-go box, my husband was disappointed in how the chicken looked like. First off, we ordered chicken wings & turned out it wasn't. You can still see there were feathers on the fried chicken. The flavor of the chicken was very dry, oily & over seasoned. It was very salty after taking a couple of bites. I can't stress how bad this was. This was a huge waste of money. We could've gone someplace else & I want to warn everyone before coming. We will not be returning to this place or any other Legend Hot Chicken location.

I arrived around 8 p.m. and walked into a completely empty restaurant, aside from one person waiting for their food. Service was good, the cashier was patient, polite, and informative while taking my order. I ordered a bacon cheeseburger combo, one small chili cheese fry, and a patty with no salt. My total came out to $26.52, which I initially thought was reasonable until the cashier later mentioned she'd accidentally forgotten to charge me for the patty. I reluctantly paid the additional $4.97. Once I received my full order, I headed to the car so we could eat. My boyfriend mentioned that the chili was bland and that his fries were soggy. When I opened my burger, I honestly couldn't tell if I'd ordered a salad or a burger as it was mostly lettuce. Between the awkward meat-to-veggie ratio and the overall lack of flavor, I felt like I would've been better off making my own burger at home lol. All in all, the prices seemed a bit steep; $26 for one combo and a small chili cheese fry feels excessive. The price doesn't match the quality, and unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this burger joint when there are much better options around. If you're in the area, you're better off heading across the street to Bixby Burger.

The large is enough for 2 people to split or make 2 meals out of if you're not ravenous. All the lettuce, tomatoes, pepperoncini, and onions were very fresh and the roll was nice and soft. The Works sub must be a real monster. Service was great. My sub was done in a snap and I was ready to go. Very friendly staff working the shop. The only let down was being charged for using a credit card. I didn't see any sign but maybe I just missed it. It was only 75 cents so no biggie but it would be nice if they could tell you there's a charge if you'd rather pay cash. Oh well. I'd like to try some other sandwiches the next time I'm in the neighborhood. Thank you OJ's!
