I had the best time here with friends :) a friendly server named Bennie helped us so much get us some photos with Jollibee! The vibes were so cute too it was an amazing time! The food was so so so good and I loved the guava drink I got plus the ube pie I got it was so good read more

Stopped in for their most recent collaboration with Final Fantasy XIV and I was impressed! The decor was cute and the meal options were priced as expected. We tried to order online for the collab meal however due to the drink issue we were unable to place the order on the kiosk and stood in line. Service was pretty fast, the cashier was quick and efficient getting everyone's orders placed. I guess the drink machine was broken and they just got it working when we got to the front of the line. The meal itself was good! Everything was hot and fresh. I do love jollibee's chicken and this meal box was perfect to try basically everything they offered! The sandwich was filling, the chicken skin on the thigh was perfect, and that peach mango pie is a staple! Was not a fan of the crystal boba in the drink but the drink other wise was also delicious! read more

I had never tried Jollibee before but I had heard great things about it. This location was the closest to my location and my roommate goes probably twice a week. There's lot of parking when you arrive and there's iPads to order online from. They have good deals and good portion sizes. I decided to get the combo meal which comes with 2 pieces of chicken, a side of biscuit and gravy, dessert, and a drink. The chicken was delicious and crispy - paired really well with the gravy. I also loved the pie and tried both the mango and ube one! The restaurant itself was clean and the orders came out pretty fast. There was a woman who cleaned right after everyone left their tables so no complaints with the cleanliness of the restaurant. Overall, I highly recommend read more

I love Jollibee's. I'm a little piggy, so I always end up ordering a whole buffet: the spicy fried chicken, sweet spaghetti, palabok, the angus burger, adobo rice, and some mango peach pies. I love that their chicken is always crispy, flavorful, and super juicy. The service is always good and super polite. read more

Ok so let me set the scene... social media got me here -- specifically YouTube. I watched a travel blogger rave about Jollibee in the Philippines talking about how amazing the chicken was, and since I knew we had two locations here in San Diego (this being the Mira Mesa one), I decided it was finally time to see what the hype was about. I've driven past this place MANY times and it's always packed... revolving door of customers. So today we were finding out -- is it really that good??? We walked in and were immediately greeted by Nicole (who seemed like a manager). I had placed an online order, and she checked on it right away. It was being finished up while waiting on fresh fries, and she personally came over to let me know the status while I sat in the lobby. That level of attentiveness already impressed me. While waiting, I noticed how clean the restaurant was and how friendly the staff were -- everyone smiling, wiping tables, staying busy. Nicole came over and chatted with me since it was our first time. She asked how I heard about Jollibee, and when I said YouTube she laughed and told me we were going to love it. And honestly -- her hospitality was TOP TIER. She even made sure we had plates and utensils packed in the bag just in case. We ended up deciding to stay and eat there with my two sons because the vibe was so chill and welcoming. Now let's talk FOOD We ordered: * Fried chicken * Fries * Pineapple drink BABY... when I tell you that chicken was fresh, crispy, hot, and JUICY -- I mean it. Honestly some of the best fried chicken I've had in San Diego, and it reminded me of home cooking back in the Midwest. The fries were hot and crispy too, and they give you gravy on the side... listen... we poured that gravy over EVERYTHING and it was delicious. We couldn't wait to try dessert: * Ube pie * Peach mango pie Both were around $3 each. The ube reminded me of a mild sweet potato filling in a fried pie shell -- really good. But that peach mango pie??? Surprisingly AMAZING. Sweet, fruity, and crispy. What stood out most to me though was the hospitality. Nicole made me feel completely comfortable and welcomed -- just genuinely kind service in a restaurant full of happy families enjoying their food. It was a really lovely experience from start to finish. Needless to say... I'll definitely be back. If you've been wondering if the hype is real -- it is. read more

Aloha all....so I finally made it to Jollibee. The restaurant was bright and the staff very friendly. I guess I got lucky because I've read other reviews saying that it can get pretty busy during rush hour. I ordered two meals and a drink. They handed me the buzzer and by the time I found a table to sit down, the buzzer went off and my order was ready for pick up.. I ordered the rhe one piece chicken and spaghetti combo. The chicken was light, crispy and juicy. The spaghetti was sweet, delicious and filling. A great comfort meal. I topped it all off with a self serve soft drink. The next time I visit I'm going to get a bucket of chicken with sides. So glad I finally got a chance to try the food here. I'll definitely be returning. read more

Jollibee - Drink! - Fast Food Near Me - San Diego, California

I'm grateful for a Jollibees closer to my area so I'm rounding up to 4 stars although I really feel this places is more around 3.5 stars on most days. Jollibees has the best fried chicken (hands down) add in some gravy and it's game over for every other chicken place. I am sad that they no longer have the full chicken sandwich menu- only spicy and original (they used to have bacon & cheese, and aloha- the pineapple on it was superb). I feel like their serving sizes also shrank (they didn't used to serve side spaghetti in a gravy cup). The staff is usually friendly and I have no complaints about their service. The store is also tidy and clean whenever I've come to pick up my order. I'm also really glad the drive thru line is shorter now-adays. read more

Jollibee - Sad they don't offer those highlighted sandwiches anymore - Fast Food Near Me - San Diego, California

JOLIBEE @ MIRA MESA Parking is available right out front, and we were able to find a spot pretty quickly. There's also a drive-through, which is really convenient. This was my first time trying Jollibee, so I was super excited. The ambiance of the place is really spacious and nice. There were only about two people in front of us, so my friend and I were able to order pretty quickly. We got the six-piece spicy chicken along with a guava drink, and it came with a side of gravy. The food came out incredibly fast, probably because we came on a weekday. I can imagine it being a lot busier on the weekends, so that's definitely a pro tip. The chicken was super crispy and hot. We went with the six-piece spicy, and honestly, it wasn't too spicy, more of a mild kick, which I really liked. You can also do a half-and-half if you want to try both. The gravy was really good and slightly on the sweeter side, but it paired perfectly with the chicken. The guava drink was also really refreshing. I loved the flavor, and it went so well with the chicken and gravy. Overall, I really loved Jollibee. Since this was my first time, I'll definitely be coming back. I was a little sad I didn't get to try their peach mango pie or their spaghetti, but that just gives me a reason to return. The bathroom was very clean, the staff were super friendly, and overall it's a great spot to stop by and try one of the best fast-food fried chicken options out there. read more

First time try out this location when we visited from the Bay Area. We had a group of 4, my daughter wanted to have their pies so we ordered the 6 pcs chickenjoy pie deal. We chose to have 1/2 original & 1/2 spicy. It took approximately 10 minutes to be ready while others behind us already got theirs, could've take longer if we didn't ask. About the taste, 6 pcs bucket: The spicy chicken is awesome, skin was very crunchy, flavorful, tender and very juicy. But when it comes to the original, it was disappointing. The batter was a little thick and feels like it's full of flour... Spaghetti: Their spaghetti is tasty as usual! This is actually my favorite! Pineapple Quench: It taste very good, but I feel if I make with pineapple juice would taste the same. Peach Mango Pie: Pie crust is deep fried, filling is sweet but cannot really tastes the peach nor the mango. It's just okay. Quality of food at this location is just okay, but it's still a good choice when you want fried chicken. Afterall, their fried chicken is above standard. read more

I love JOLLIBEE! When I was a kid visiting the Philippines for the first time we went there and at the time I didn't enjoy the food, but I liked the mascots. Now I very much enjoy this food as an adult. I thought it was pretty cool that Katseye did a collab and I saw too many TikTok's showing this meal so I got excited and I had to try it. Everyone on social media made it look so good. I was a little disappointed, maybe it's because everyone hyped it up that made it disappointing. Don't get me wrong it was good, but it wasn't as good as people make it out to be. Maybe if I had it in wing form it might have been better, but when you put that sauce on whole chicken it taste different and not as crunchy as to my liking. Next time I should just get the sauce on the side if that's possible so the chicken doesn't get soggy. The sandwich was my favorite. Adobo rice is always bomb! The guava quencher was very refreshing. I also got a peach pie and you know that's always great! I'm just saying I did get disappointed driving from vista to Mira mesa for this specific chicken. Not worth it unfortunately for me. I rather have the spicy chicken and gravy, spaghetti, or palabok. read more

A Comfort-Food Classic at Jollibee The Jollibee spaghetti with chicken combo is pure happiness in a box! The sweet-savory spaghetti sauce is perfectly balanced--rich tomato flavor with just the right touch of sweetness, loaded with tender slices of hotdog and topped with a generous sprinkle of cheese that melts beautifully into every bite. The fried chicken is golden and crispy on the outside while staying juicy and flavorful inside, creating the ultimate pairing with the spaghetti. Served hot and fresh with friendly service and a clean, welcoming atmosphere, this meal delivers comfort and satisfaction every time. Whether you're craving Filipino-style spaghetti or the best crunchy fried chicken around, Jollibee hits the spot! read more

We came in here for their fried chicken for a late lunch. There was a short line even then. I ordered the two piece chicken meal. It came with a biscuit and one side option. I choose fries. They were ok and will choose something else next time. The chicken pieces were juicy but I do wish it could be a little spicier. There was hardly any heat to it. There was gravy that was served with the meal for you to dip your chicken in. read more

This is a review for the whole establishment itself. I have always hated Jollibee bc their spaghetti is immensely gross and the chicken left and after taste. I am not sure why all the craze about this chicken? Currently Jollibee gets a 1 star bc let's face it, they are so expensive you think it's made out of gold. 6 pieces for 17$. This is the definition of price gouging. The fact kfc and Popeyes and churchs chicken tastes a whole lot better. At kfc right now you get an 8 piece bucket free with purchase of 15$. Thats getting a whole order free with a lot of chicken! In Tuesdays, kfc has 15$ bucket deal, 8 pieces NOT 6! Popeyes even has deals that garner points and you can get something free more frequently. Jollibee is so snooty. The mashed potatoes and gravy is excellent here and the fries are pretty good but I cannot get over the weird tasting chicken. Outside is crispy and nice texture, but taste awful. This location was not bad in service. The kid at the counter was nice but didn't seem to understand a question I was asking him. Its a good size inside but not packed ever like an in n out n out would be. This Jollibee had a drive thru. It really isn't busy here at all. The only reason 2 stars bc THIS location is fine. Its clean, spacious and the workers are OK. Otherwise itd be ONE star for sure. Never again! read more

First Impressions: I was visiting from Tucson, AZ on vacation with my significant other and I have to say I've been looking forward to Jollibee for a few years as I keep seeing TikToks and YouTube videos of everyone raving about it. The hype was real and I'm glad I went! Interactions: I did had this delivered to the beach house I was staying at on vacation, but the interaction was friendly and quick. Service: As mentioned above I had the food delivered, but in terms of service, I can't comment to much on this portion. Food: Let me just say this, the hype and the talk about this place is REAL! Thank you so much (social media) for pushing me to try this. I had this delivered and it took 45-60 mins and the food was so fresh and EXTREMELY crispy. How do they do it?!!!!. The chicken is the truth and my god that gravy is just gold. I can't believe how good it is. Borderline criminal good. The adobo rice is so good and I couldn't stop eating it alongside the joy spaghettis! The ube and mango pie hit the sweet tooth, and I couldn't be more happier that I tried a little bit of everything here, but the CHICKEN! with the gravy was just SPECTACULAR. Value: The food in California is expensive, but more particularly this whole meal came out to be a be roughly $47.60 (which isn't to bad) considering how much food you get. I did go a little overboard as I was eating for myself, gf and her sister. I think the value is there if your buying the bucket meals. Recommendation: Out of this world good! If you like fried chicken, and never been here, I HIGHLY recommend you try this place out and be sure to try the chicken with the gravy. If you can tolerate a bit spice go spicy chicken. I will be back, and I hope you guys build one in Tucson, AZ! This place would be a huge hit! Thank you Jollibee read more

Hands down, the best fried chicken in the world! If you haven't tried Jollibee, you should. I suggest ordering the spicy chicken; it's so much better than the original. It is spicy, the skin is very crunchy, dipped in gravy - it's the best! The burger steak is also really delicious. The spaghetti is yummy, but FYI, it is sweet! It's not the same as traditional spaghetti; Filipino spaghetti is sweet and savory with hotdogs, banana ketchup, melted cheese, and sugar; it's not for everyone, but lots of people like it. I love it. Lately, I've been ordering the 1 or 2-piece chicken spicy, 2-piece burger steak combo with soda. Plus, for an extra $1.50, you can upgrade to spaghetti as your side. For a total of $18-$20, you get to taste a lot of everything in one order. It's the best combo meal for me. They have other things too, like burgers, palabok, tenders, and little snack desserts, but the combo was my favorite. They also have chicken bucket meals and party platters for big family dinners. There are two locations in San Diego, one in Miramesa and the other one in National City! I highly recommend Miramesa location tho especially ordering drive thru. Jollibee drive thru in National City is frustrating, and the customer service is not the best. read more

Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The perfect combo! read more

Jollibee - Katseye kbbq 6 piece bucket - Fast Food Near Me - San Diego, California

I love jollibee. The chicken and gravy, Filipino spaghetti, peach mango pies, ect. I'm only giving three stars for the amount of time you have to wait during a lunch or dinner rush. I don't mind waiting 15-20 minutes when it's busy. But I waited for about 45 minutes for one meal. I ordered the two piece combo with spaghetti and a drink. They told me they ran out of chicken and it would take a little longer but 45 minutes for one meal is pretty crazy. I'm not saying you shouldn't come here, but you should know what you're getting into if you're coming here during peak hours. read more

Solid fast food fried chicken; I would say better than KFC and maybe on par with Popeyes - but this is all subjective. I had a $5 off coupon for signing up for their rewards program and got the 6 piece chickenjoy bucket for $16.99 (as of March 2025). I think their regular price is quite pricey for just 6 pieces, but I only paid $12-13 with my coupon. Chicken was crispy, juicy, and well-seasoned. It comes with a generous portion of gravy to dip your chicken in. Ketchup is available upon request but other sauces like bbq are extra charge. Parking lot available. Restrooms require a code. read more

Haven't been here in decades but my son asked to try it...OMG! The original fried chicken was hot, fresh, tasty and filling! Add the gravy and it was amazing. Biscuits were the best I've ever had...crunchy on the outside, soft on the inside and seasoned perfectly! Dipped that in the gravy too. Prices were higher than expected...$15 for a premium combo with 2 sides and a soda. Super fast service...barely sat down and our food was ready. Crazy busy on a Saturday night just like In & Out with the drive thru 20 deep and the inside packed. Will definitely be back. read more

Jollibee - Dark meat only chicken, adobo rice, fries, biscuits, gravy and drink! - Fast Food Near Me - San Diego, California

We had: Bucket B consisting of A bucket of fried chicken A platter of spaghetti 4 peach mango pies Add in an order of 4 cheesy yum burgers Is it authentically similar to the Philippines Jollibee? No. Is it close? Sort of. The chicken is consistently crispy. Just ensure to remove the cover so it doesn't steam in the bucket and plastic bag. There is a charge for extra gravy. The spaghetti is sugary. Yes Filipino style spaghetti is supposed to be sweet. A hint of sweetness is different than overly sugary. There is very little sauce for the platter so we paid for extra sauce. The peach mango pies come closest to how it is back in the PI. The yum burgers are farthest from the taste profile of the original. The meat patties are tiny. You'll have to take a few bites of the buns before you end up finding the patties. There is always a long wait at this drive through and you'll be asked to park to eventually receive your order. read more

Besides that, the food was bomb as always!! The kitchen staff had it locked down. Thanks again Mira Mesa Jollibee, can't wait to be be back! read more

Online order April 18 1:45 Pm, no straw on drink, no napkins what service is that? Nothing more to say disappointed

Solid spot for some tasty fried chicken! The spicy chicken had a nice kick but wish it packed a bit more heat, but still satisfying. The gravy was definitely the standout rich, savory, and perfect for dipping. The interior was clean and the service was standard, not bad, not amazing. The sides were a bit of a letdown. The mac n cheese was watery and had a powdery flavor that just didn't hit the mark, it was fake mac n cheese. Don't waste your money on it. Adobo rice was decent, and the mashed potatoes reminded me of KFC's, which isn't a bad thing if that's what you're into. Now for the real star: the peach mango pie. The filling was sweet and fruity, and the crust was crispy perfection, like a little dessert pocket. I could easily crush two of those in one sitting. Would come back for the chicken and pie alone! read more

One day I will try it, till then the chicken will have to do, which I definitely don't mind. read more
