    Popcorn, chicken with side chick sauce ( sweet and spicy)
    Vanessa V.

    We wanted to try a new chicken place, chicken coop showed up in Downey. We were pleasantly surprised at how much we enjoyed the food. We ordered popcorn, chicken with sweet and spicy sauce. Chicken Tinga empanadas. The Canadian chicken and Micheladas. Everything was tasty. The Michelada mix was tasty also, visually appealing Service checked on us constantly to make sure we had everything we needed. They had TVs that we were able to watch the soccer game. Overall, it was a great experience and we will return. Tasty food, relaxing area. I could see it being a great hang out with the bar area We went for lunch they had lunch specials, next time I want to try the chicken tostada salad. It looked yummy.

    Fried Chicken Sandwich Garlic Fries
    Chayden B.

    Met up with some friends for dinner and have mixed feelings. I got a fried chicken sandwich with garlic fries which tasted amazing. They have a really nice outdoor seating area with chairs and booths and looks stunning at night. Service was 7/10. Was originally given too few utensils/napkins for the number of people we had (which never changed from when we told them how many). The restaurant itself didn't have any fountain drinks, only canned which was disappointing and then when it came time for dessert a couple of us wanted the deep fried Oreos only for the server to come back saying they were out. I will say tho they were VERY nice and offered us ice cream on the house to make up for it. Would give this place another shot for sure.

    This place changed drastically. The menu is nothing like it used to be just a few weeks ago. No more good prices on margs or food. We can get better priced drinks anywhere nearby. Took out the good food too. Y'all really dropped the ball with this change. This was a place I was planning to frequent, but now I'm mostly likely never going back. Don't try to be something you're not. Especially when your restrooms are as gross as they are and don't fit with the prices you now charge. The food is not worth the new price.

    My server, Mavi (María Victoria) was amazing! She was so funny and she taught me a little spanish (chamagos). The food was amazing and the ambience was fantastic! Great music and an overall marvelous time , 10/10 would recommend! I'll be back soon

    Garlic Chicken Plate

    Great service -Josie is as top level and the Brussel sprouts were giving me life!!!! I also got the Shawarma wrap which was super delicious a little small, but the taste was great

    The Chicken Koop has really good food and the ambience is nice, hence the only reason for three stars. Today we went with some friends and my husband ordered the Chicken & Waffles. When we got the receipt, he noticed his was more expensive than those who got the eggs & bacon added onto to their Chicken & Waffles. We checked the menu and sure enough his meal was supposed to be $20.99 and they had charged him $24.99. We pointed it out to the server and she took off the $4.99. This unfortunately left a bad impression as I'm thinking how many people don't check their receipt and hope that this hasn't happened to other people. Posting this review to say to double check your receipt as this shows dishonesty on the business.

    I haven't stopped by this location in a while but I came today on a Sunday afternoon and Josie was very attentive & her energy was so light and great. I will definitely be adding the chicken coop back to my local stops! & the food was so good!

    Old fashion & two different margs
    Mel D.

    I've seen this place for awhile. Decided to take wifey out. We came in for happy hour. Our waitress disclosed everything as soon as we sat down. Everything we got was good. Margs were good price all other drinks were $2 off. After, we paid I saw some of cocktails were charged reg price and our waitress refunded the difference back. She was nice the whole time. She told us her name at the beginning but I can't remember it at the moment. Inside is a little small, outside might be a little bit bigger.

    Our waiter Josie was amazing! She kept checking in on us despite the 90 degree heat. Thank you Josie see you again soon!

    Our waiter Josie was amazing! Thank you so much. Josie was attentive the food was amazing. Despite the 90 degree heat the ambiance was on point. Thanks Josie see you again soon ?

Jorge came outside multiple times, clearly saw how many people were waiting, and even recorded the crowd on his phone three different times for social media. Knowing the capacity of the restaurant, he could have easily informed everyone that the remaining people in line would likely not get in. Instead, we waited over three hours with no communication. While we were waiting, I repeatedly watched people call Jorge. He would come outside, greet them, and bring them straight inside. I personally saw this happen at least six different times. When it was finally our turn to speak with the host, we were told there were no seats left, that we would have to stand, and that we wouldn't even be able to order food. I confronted Jorge about letting those other groups in ahead of everyone else. His response was that he knew them personally and that they were friends of the restaurant owners. That explanation only made the situation worse. My wife had just finished a 14-hour hospital shift, and we came here hoping to enjoy the game together. Instead, we spent three hours waiting only to be treated as though our time didn't matter. What was most shocking was Jorge's attitude. He literally told me, "They won't do anything to me if you post this. I'm friends with the owner." If that's the mindset of management, it's no surprise customers are treated this way. It truly felt like only friends and family received special treatment while everyone else was left waiting without honesty or respect. I have no issue waiting when things are busy, but I do expect transparency, fairness, and professionalism. Unfortunately, this experience showed none of those qualities.
