    Bland strips and fried. Not good.
    Dena T.

    Second time trying this place. The first time, the food was just okay and didn't have much seasoning, but we decided to give them another shot. Unfortunately, this visit wasn't any better. We ordered the #5 with the 3-piece tenders, fries, and a 12-piece nugget. We asked if we could make the nuggets a combo and were told no. Then we asked if we could add lemon pepper seasoning to the nuggets and again were told no. However, it could be done for the kids meal? That didn't make any sense to me. We also didn't want the Richie's sauce and asked for barbecue sauce instead, only to be told it was 50 cents extra for each sauce. Charging sauce for nuggets is wild to me! Not everyone wants your house sauce! In the end, every question we asked was met with "no." Similar to the first visit, the food was bland even after asking for extra seasoning. I'm not sure what seasoning blend they use, but you can barely taste it. Between the bland food, poor service experience, and extra charges for condiments for nuggets, this place is a hard NO for me returning.

    2 munchies boxes and 1 kids meal with two tenders
    Mon S.

    We tried the Munchies Box ($13) and it was honestly a great deal for the amount of food you get. The box comes packed with a variety of items, and everything we tried was flavorful and satisfying. The chicken was crispy, well seasoned, and clearly freshly made, the fries were hot and fresh, and the cheese covered tots were the perfect comfort food side. The sauces paired really well with everything too. Another thing that really stood out was the customer service. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made the experience even better. The restaurant was very clean too. What impressed us the most was the portion size. For only $13, the Munchies Box comes with a lot of food definitely enough to share or take some home for later. Overall, great flavor, fresh food, generous portions, excellent customer service, and very fair pricing. If you're hungry and want something satisfying without spending a lot, the Munchies Box is definitely worth trying. We'll definitely come back!

    Richie's Hot Chicken is a new addition to central Bellflower and offers a hot chicken in tenders or wings along with classic sides like Mac n Cheese or Fries. Compared the competition, it is honestly sits somewhere in the middle of the pack. The flavor is straight cayenne with a flat taste but ok kick. In addition to this, the oil needs to be cleaned out more often as it made the fries sub-par. This place gets busy on their "Tender Tuesday" or "Wing Wednesday" but honestly if you are aiming to order fries its better to just purchase the combo. The tenders are a decent deal however. The saving grace here were the wings, they have multiple flavors and they were solid. The wings were a great size and cooked just right.

    Biscuit?

    I came on a Tuesday for $2 tenders. I Was pleasantly surprised there was a drive-through and no line. Wanted to order lemon pepper flavor, but apparently that doesn't count for the deal. I ordered two biscuits with my food and was told it would take 15 minutes, which ended up taking 30 minutes. i waited at the window so long people behind me started driving away. Not sure why they wouldn't just have me parked to the side. Let's get to the food. Tenders are huge and for the price you can't beat that. But they were just ok, nothing special they had a distinct taste, not too sure if it was the seasoning, but I wasn't really a fan. wasn't bad though. The biscuits I waited for were a joke not too sure why it took so long but it just looks like two tops of biscuits and they forgot the bottom. It didn't even look appealing. I didn't even try it so can't tell you how they were. Overall it was solid. I probably wouldn't go back just wasn't for me, but it wasn't bad. Give it a try.

    Good food, at good prices, nice interior and has a drive thru. Everyone's fast and they'll greet you upon arrival

    Combo #1 medium spice
    Justin V.

    Got the chicken sandwich combo medium spice and I have to say for the price and taste it's definitely above the typical fast food quality. A giant sandwich with a mountain of fries and it just so happened to be free milkshake mondays!! Pro tip get the slaw and sauce on the side so your sandwich doesn't get soggy!! Will be going back for sure!!

    Stopped by this new chicken spot and it blew me away. Easily the best hot chicken around. The staff was on point, super friendly. Christian music was playing in the background, and the walls had uplifting faith-based themes that gave the place a warm, positive vibe. I ordered the #5 three-piece tenders with fries and toast, plus an 18-piece wing order and a Fruity Pebble shake to share with a friend. The quality of both the tenders and wings seriously impressed me--great flavor, great portions. I left full and happy. If you're in Bellflower, this place is a must-try. And even if you're not, it's worth the drive. I'm from Whittier and I'll definitely be back.

    Stopped in to try Richie's hot chicken a new hot chicken spot. Bellflower was greeted by a friendly person behind the counter. Told me what the popular flavors are for the wings. Ask me how I'm doing thanked me for visiting trust in God logo on the wall, medium size eating area clean plenty of tables some good music playing . I would count this spot as a trusted hot chicken location.

    Looking up chicken and waffles requested by one of my kids. Didn't feel like paying over $20 ata restaurant for that. So found one of the chicken fast food chains sells it and we landed here at Richies, thanks to Yelp. My kid was so happy that now she wants this Golden Hug meal to be for after school practice dinner. Anyway, onto the place. Easy to find. On the corner of alondra and eucalyptus. Enter the back way for parking and drive thru. Entering we weren't really greeted. But I guess they were busy taking in phone orders. Lucky there was a tablet to order from. what did we get....Chicken and waffles aka Golden Hug, the two tender with fries and drink, and chicken and french toast with added egg aka Sweet Heat. The chicken & waffles were amazing according to my kid. French toast with chicken was actually really good. I had it medium spice but illkick it up a notch next time. The fries and tater tots lacked coz of no salt. But it's ok can always ask for some. Quality and quantity, ftw!!!! Place is clean. Plenty of tables. Restroom located in the back. Lack one star coz not greeting and no salt. Otherwise, we shall be back.

    I got the #5 it's a 3 piece with crinkle cut seasoned fries. The chicken tenders are huge! I got the medium heat, it was spicy enough for me. My granddaughter got the Richie Rich fries, after her first bite she said " this is delicious" My grandson got the chocolate rice crispy shake , he loved it. The prices are affordable and the portions are large. Nice and clean restaurant with a friendly staff. We will definitely be coming back

    Did not expect to loke their chicken wings and chicken sandwich. Chicken wings and chicken sandwich was the bomb.

    My wife and I came here after a hike, on a Saturday afternoon. We were greeted by Henry who was…read moreSUPER friendly and helpful. Hi Henry! Since it was our first time (thanks to tik tok!), Henry went over the menu and shared his personal favorites as well as the most popular among customers. He did tell us they are known for their sandwiches. We went with one breakfast burrito and the granada sandwich, respectfully. We had them cut in half too. We then decided to eat the burrito (she had half and I had half) and save the sandwich for dinner later that day. The breakfast burrito was pretty good. I would say 8/10. It was a good size as well which is why we shared it. Now, when we had the sandwich (shared as well) later for dinner OMG it was delicious!! Every ingredient mixed well together. So much flavor! We got jalapeño aioli as a dipping sauce and man oh man was it good! We will definitely be returning! And honestly, I can't wait! Some notes: If you need to use the restroom, you gotta head over to the movie theater across the way as Monty's does not have a public restroom. Be patient as there is a wait time. It wasn't packed at all, but we believe there aren't many cooks back there. It's okay though, totally worth it in our opinion.

    When we ordered, we told her it was to go. Our food came on a tray. My husband said, It's supposed…read moreto be to go and she handed him a paper bag. My husband ordered the chicken and waffles. Smallest pieces of chicken we've ever seen. I ordered the cheesesteak sandwich, not sure if the steak was cooked all the way through, but with one of the bites, the meat was cold. I stopped eating it after that. Maybe we just went on a bad day. I just know I get one bad experience anywhere, especially with food, and I won't go back.
