Satisfying!!!! Love the simple but flavorful menu. The lemon pepper wings are straight fire! The chicken sandwich had the right amount of kick; fries also good. Wife loved the pickled radish. My only recommendation is changing the ranch dressing...a bit too sweet for me but other than I would highly recommend this place to everyone read more

How cute is this place and so happy we finally have something new to eat in the promenade the staff is supper sweet and helpful heaven was so nice when I came in and they offered samples I can safely say all 3 flavors are delicious but lemon pepper and soy garlic are my favorite (daughter can't eat the spicy) make sure you get a punch card when you come in this location hasn't even been open a full 7 days and I've been 3 times read more

I came in around 2pm and there was just one other person in the place. I ordered the boneless 6-piece combo with lemon pepper and sweet spicy, upgraded the fries to garlic, and got a free soy garlic. I ended up wishing I had only gotten soy garlic! It's sooo good. The sweet spicy was on a scale of , but I also felt the sweetness to be somewhat light as well (they actually gave me 4 of these instead of 3, which was nice of them! But I only ate 2 and put the other 2 in the fridge). The lemon pepper was very lemony and peppery. Neither flavor was bad, but soy garlic was the most balanced flavor to me. Also, while I love a good garlic fry, and these are garlicky, I also found them too salty. Everyone's tastes are different so I still recommend you try it. For me, if I return it would just be to order a 6-piece soy garlic and leave. The chicken itself is a good size, moist, and flavorful. I believe they're using dark meat. Also, the cashier was nice but as I write this I realize I wasn't offered a stamp card. Guess you really have to ask for it. ‍ read more

Amazing food and service. Shoutout to Kaitlynn for helping me she was incredibly helpful!

I invite you to try this place out. read more

Running Chicks - Downey - Friend lemon pepper chicken and lemon pepper fried. So good - Chicken Wings Near Me - Downey, California

I liked this place a lot when it first opened but now it seems like they're going downhill or just don't care about serving hot food. Their wings are getting smaller and you can't get hot fries to save your life. Even though you wait enough time for your order where you should get fresh hot fries you just get lukewarm or cold fries and seeing that that's the only side dish that they serve you would think they would give it the right attention. The flavor is there with the soy garlic. The lemon pepper is overpowering and after you eat two wings you are reaching for a drink. Nice clean place with friendly people but come on work on your fries and don't serve those skimpy wings, especially three or four of them in a six-piece order. read more

Stopped by here during lunch to try their fries. I ordered the chicken sandwich and upgraded to garlic butter fries which were so good! Definitely coming back! read more

I was a bit hesitant when I first saw this place because there was nobody inside but I took a chance and so glad that I did!! That is my once a month treat... the chicken is fire I don't really care for the fries because they're too salty, so maybe next time I will ask for no salt and the coleslaw is wonderful!! read more

Hands down one of if the the best chicken sandwiches I've ever had in my life & I'm extremely picky when it comes to my sandos. Everything from the extremely soft & fluffy buttered buns to the freshness & crisp of there slaw. Wonderfully prepared. The real star of the show was the chicken. Perfectly crispy & running down your fingers from the juiciness! Seasoned to perfection. I'm definitely coming back tomorrow for another! read more

Tried their chicken sandwich and it is now my go-to! Perfect amount of spicy and sweet! Service is about average depending who is there. Love this place read more

The chicken sandwich was very good and filling! A bit pricey. The combo was approximately $15. I tried the sweet spicy wings and the soy garlic wings but still preferred the sandwich. Wait time was a bit along. read more

See all

The name is Sound Chicken now. It used to be running chick's, the food was much better before. I went to eat here today. But when I went to order I noticed something different, but could not pin point it. I ordered a 9 piece chicken, but my husband usually orders for both, I wasn't sure about the lemon pepper or original. So I ordered half and half. Then I asked for regular fries and was told no fries just chicken. And no drink. And the price was ridiculous $19.99 for 9 party wings, with no drink and fries. I asked did you change the menu. And the lady said no, we are new, that the food is way better than running chick's. Omg it is not worth the price. The original was okay, but myself and my husband both got sick on the lemon pepper. Omg it was so salty, way too much seasoning. I told her I would put this on Yelp. That I would tell her the truth. Believe me, save your money, high price for nasty food. Running chick's was so much better than this food. And cheaper. I even asked a guy in another restaurant near there. He said they are too high, and don't give side of fries. They need to close now. read more

Great customer service, very friendly and helpful. The boneless wings were really good, I would recommend the soy garlic sauce. read more

Really good fried chicken. Tried the fried chicken lunch combo with the soy garlic dipping sauce. Chicken was so good and breading was crunchy and flavorful. Definitely will be back. read more

This place is so good! The employees are super nice when they took our order. The chicken was fried great and the fries too, not soggy at all! THE SERVICE WAS ALSO AMAZING :) The location is pretty clean and neat. I would definitely come here again when I'm craving wings, tenders etc. read more

Great Food!!!! My boyfriend were on the hunt for some food, and saw this place! When we got inside they greeted us very politely, overall great customer service! We got the 15 piece combo and tried all 3 flavors!!! Everything we had was very tasty and flavorful, our personal favorite was the SOY GARLIC. Wings had a great crunch, coleslaw was refreshing, and overall highly recommend! PRICES ARE GREAT TOO! read more

My family tried this place today for the first time. Let me tell you we were all very pleased with their wings and we tried all the 3 flavors. The slaw and garlic fries are just as tasty. We tried deciding which flavor is our favorite and just could not decide after trying them all. The girl who helped me with the pick up was friendly. We will definitely be returning and telling our friends and family about this place. You should check this place out for yourself specially if you are into the wing thing. Oh and we also keep saying how crispy they wings are which most places are not after they get sauced. I noticed when I was picking up my order they have a sign that they are working on a sando (sandwich) and will be available soon. Can't wait to try that as well. read more

Food is great but the cook doesn't wear gloves, mask, or hair net (was wearing a beanie) . They need to take sanitary measures a little more serious. read more

So excited when I saw an Asian fried chicken place was going in here so i had to try it out. I LOVE the soy garlic wings and the garlic butter fries, SO addictive! I bought a larger order than I really wanted so I could have leftovers but I just ended up eating them all!! The staff is super nice and helpful every time I come in. Very friendly and competent. Really great place! read more

The wings and Garlic fries are fire. I would of given 5 stars but the ranch is horrible.

I ordered the small bone-in combo with soy garlic and lemon pepper wings, dine-in. The wait was long with only 1 customer ahead, about 25 min and they gave me my food in a take out bag. The wings were very dry and the lemon pepper wings were so salty, it was inedible! Garlic fries and coleslaw were also really bad. read more

I can't even give this chicken 1 star, to start off it took 23 minutes to get a 3 pc meal to go. The chicken has zero salt or flavor, tasted so gamey so that got tossed. Money wasted! The fries were bad too!!! First & last visit to this place read more

Customer service wasn't good, and the wings did not make up for it. 2/10 Would not go again, should've known when there was not one soul inside on a Sunday night. read more

One of the best Korean fried chicken spots I have tried. This is the family meal included are two sides with it. Chicken was very crispy and freshly made to order also the sauces on the side are delicious. You can have your chicken tossed in the sauce as well. Will definitely be coming to this KFC spot in Downey. read more

Really nice staff, offered to give a sample of there wings. It's really tast would recommend

Gave me a watery chicken that was chewy and visibly soggy once biten into. Took two bites and both were chewy so I don't think it was just fat. read more

The food was really good unfortunately the service today was very bad and unprofessional. The girl working there walked out and I can already tell she was mad with her body language. It was our first time and last time there. She was rolling her eyes and giving us attitude for any question we had. If you can't be a little friendly don't work in fast food. This is how upcoming businesses loose customers because of lazy rude employees. read more

This was my first time at running chicks. The cashier Mia was super helpful and explained everything in regards to the menu in detail. Definitely returning! read more

This place always has the best seasoned, crispy chicken and fast service. The staff is always super nice and friendly. My go to chicken spot at the promenade. read more

Chicken is bomb! Try the lemon pepper- so light and crispy! And best fries ever. They never disappoint very consistent.

Wings are good. Small 6 piece combo is a better value than Wingstop in my opinion. You get 6 wings, fries, a drink, and cole slaw or pickled radish salad, and they give you 2 dips. Bone in, that combo comes out to $14.25. The wings are tasty. I like the soy garlic best. BBQ is good too, and buffalo as well. But, for my liking they use too much sauce so I ask them to go light on the sauce. The Mexican dude who's always working the counter is a very friendly humble man always has a good attitude always says thank you always asks if you need anything extra. Old school manners go a long way for me to choose a place to spend my money at. Also, check in on Yelp or follow them on IG and you get one free wing with your order. read more

Went here for lunch around 1:00 and the food was great! It was my first time! I ordered the wing combo with soy garlic and sweet and spicy. Sooo soo good! Hot, fresh, crispy! My favorite were the soy garlic. I liked the sweet and spicy but it was kinda spicy, the spice came later. I was sad because they did not have pickles radish, but I was still happy with my wings and fries and coleslaw. I will be back! They have a loyalty stamp card too. read more

The food was great and the service was friendly and good. The only reason I didn't give it five stars is that they need to have better seating, but it was well worth sitting on metal stools to get a great sandwich. I'll be back! read more

I was so excited when they opened running chicks, as soon as I went in I was greeted by the friendly cashier. I ordered the group #2 pack and boy it was so much food enough for 4 to 5 people. I got spicy sauce and sweet garlic and it has to be the best flavors. If you like Korean fried chicken you'll like this place!!! The chicken tastes so good with the side of radish. I will be coming back again. read more

Great food! Fast service and friendly customer service! Fried chicken is hot and juicy! Loved it here

My first time trying this place! I enjoyed it the workers were nice, Mia took my order and offered me to try the flavors for the wings! I found my favorite flavor (soy garlic). Def worth a try. read more

I was hesitant at first glance since there's so few reviews, but seeing the elaborate descriptions in the few reviews here, we decided to try it. I would 100% agree with the previously used term of "freakishly delicious"!!! The flavors, though there are few, are like a slap in the face in the best way! I will definitely be back and excited to try the sweet and spicy next time! read more

Service was pleasant, fast and efficient. Food was delicious! Really enjoyed the crunch of my soy garlic chicken and the garlic butter French fries were very tasty. I will definitely be back. read more

Running Chicks has THE best soy garlic sauce I have ever tasted. The food was phenomenal, the service, even better! Cashier Mia, was the nicest most helpful when choosing what exactly to get. The greatest recommendation I could have gotten. Thank you Mia for introducing me to my new favorite chicken spot. Wish I would have taken a picture before I devoured my food. But 15/10!! read more
