    20936 Mission Blvd Hayward, CA 94541 Vons Chicken in Hayward is serving up sizzling hot and tasty chicken! I was at this location at the Creekside Center on a Friday night around 8pm. This Vons restaurant is actually very small, and has only two tables in their dining area. This Vons is run by the same people who previously ran the Castro Valley location. In fact, some of the old reviews and photos are included in this Yelp listing. I ordered a Half Order of Fried Chicken w/ Garlic Soy Glaze, Medium Spicy, and a Combo of Drums and Wings. Also, an order of Onion Rings and a soda. My order was ready in 15-minutes, and I was thanked by the staff for coming to their new location. I was encouraged to eat my fried chicken there, to fully enjoy it's freshness. OMG, that chicken was sizzling HOT. Too hot to eat! The Onion Rings were crispy and crunchy. The chicken was super crispy and juicy. Vons is fried food heaven if you love fried chicken! Yes, I agree with Vons, to fully enjoy your food you must get your food fresh from the kitchen. Sizzling hot and fresh! That's the way it's intended to be enjoyed. So get down to Creekside Center and get some fried chicken! It's on Mission Blvd near Mattox Rd. Near I-238 and I-580 freeways, and down the hill from Castro Valley. Lots of free parking. Support local business!

    One of the best fried chickens in the biz! Authentic korean flavor, crispy, and addicting! The honey butter crisp is definitely one of my top favorites. Hopefully, I'll try their other flavors soon. They do catering!

    So good and so dangerous being right down the street... The honey butter dusted fried chicken is like if Crispy Crunchy and farmer's market kettle corn had a beautiful baby. Do yourself a favor and get some spicy kimchi rice with your chicken for that hot sauce style heat on the side. Bomb!

    10/10 chicken wings in size, flavor, and crunch BUT very pricey! Great for takeout & large crowds.

    Crispy Fried with Honey- half order
    Yvonne C.

    Fried Chicken was a hit with my family. Placed a phone order and ready within 15 mins. Plenty of parking and conveniently located in a shopping center close to freeway off ramps. Ordered the crispy honey chicken and yangnyum. The pieces were just wings or drumsticks. My confusion or assumption was when it says "half or full," I thought it was half or whole chicken cut up because in LA it is done that way. Price-wise is on average with wingstop but the proportion is tastier and bigger. Definitely more money's worth in comparison. Half order comes with a large cup of pickled radish and full comes with two. Will try other options in the future.

    Soy sauce fried chicken half order with wings

    It's been awhile since I ordered Vons Chicken. Maybe a bad day but their soy chicken fried chicken used to be very crispy and had enough flavors BUT today, it was not the same. Their soy is more salty than sweet. Fried chicken wings: the soy glazed was salty and not as crispy Sweet potato fries with cheddar: probably need to fry it a bit longer. It was soggy and not enough cheddar (extra cost for cheddar) You know the location is not the greatest when you see police security cameras all over the parking lot but there's plenty of parking spots.

    I ordered crispy chicken garlic wings

    I am not one to really write a review. But when I do its a WOW for me... First timer and definitely won't be my last. Order a 10piece chicken wings Delicious, flavorful, juicy, fresh and definitely crispy!

    soy garlic boneless chicken half order 10 pc

    I haven't been here since they moved from Castro Valley and I have to say, I was very disappointed. I used to visit frequently. I did a full order of boneless chicken to go, half soy garlic and half yangnyum, and WOW was it dry and somewhat flavorless. There was a sign on the register that said 50 cents for extra sauce but really? There was barely on the chicken to begin with - only one side of most of the chicken had sauce on it. I didn't think I needed to ask for it to be coated on both sides. It used to come drenched in sauce. I made it home within 10 minutes and the chicken wasn't *super* crispy like it used to be (even after it sitting out a while). The boneless pieces seem to be smaller than what they used to be while the prices went up...inflation is understandable but I noticed I was charged more than what the website posted as well as the to-go menu that I received in the bag. Please update your pricing. The customer service was pleasant but that doesn't save the chicken. I'm sorry to have to say I probably won't be back. If I do, it'll be at a different location - hopefully the recipes haven't changed everywhere. Like a previous reviewer said, the soy garlic was salty and did not have any sweet notes (like it used to). $36 after tax for 20 subpar fried chicken tenders...I could get a better meal elsewhere. Sorry :(

    As always looking on Yelp for some wingssssss !!! Located this place which I was excited to find.. cook to order not an issue at all !! Juicy and tender inside!!! Great customer service clean !! Order and go !! Definitely would go back to try different types of wings !!

    All I can say is "WOW" !!!! This is definitely my new Go To for chicken wings!!!! The place was clean and very quiet. The man who took me and my mom's order was nice. The wait time was 10-15 and it was worth the wait! The food is cooked to order! FRESH AND EVERY BITE HAD A NICE CRUNCH TO IT, just how I love it! I had the half order of the Crispy Yang Nyum which comes in 10 pieces and you can order the Yang Nyum in regular, mild or spicy. I ordered spicy! It had a sweet to spicy taste and it wasn't drowned in the sauce. It was perfect! My mom order the HONEY BUTTER CHICKEN!! That flavor is soooooo good! Thats a much try. I've never even heard of honey butter as a flavor for chicken wings before and if you haven't heard of it either, this is the place to try it at! 10/10!!!!!!!!!!!

    This location is only take out only. And it's the first location that I've seen there is a meal Special Going on for $12.99 for any time They are open. Good deal. I got 5 honey butter fried wings with crispy fries and coleslaw. Hubby got the cheddar fried chicken wings with kimchee fried rice and coleslaw. It also came with a drink that you pick out of their fridge. What a deal. Usually when I go to Von's they nickel and dime me on $1 more for Wings. $1 more to to get 1/2 Honey butter and 1/2 Cheddar. At this Von's they don't do That. Once we got our Order the wings were hot and crispy and good size. The fries were really crispy too. The coleslaw had no flavor. The kimchee fried rice was a little stuck together but had a nice little spicy kick to It. Also, this Von's does not have a restroom and it's not located in The best part is the town. If you need to use a restroom, go to the 99 cent store.

    B. Crispy Fried Chicken - Half
    Rebecca B.

    Okay. I am shocked to report how delicious Vons Chicken is!!!!! I have trust issues with food chains because ya never know if the quality can be trusted, but Vons was bussin! Their chicken is $16.99 for a half order. You can choose between three spicy levels as well as four kinds of half orders (10pcs boneless, combo of 3 drums+4wings, 5pcs drumsticks, or 10pcs wings). They even have oven roasted if you don't want fried. On this chicken delivery, we ordered a half order of crispy fried chicken mild, a half order of crispy yangnyum medium spicy, and honey butter french fries. The medium spicy was spicy! You have been warned! Delicious nonetheless! The pickled radish will be your bestie. Drink the liquid that comes with it as well:) I wish we ordered honey butter crispy chicken because it was that addictingly good!

    The crispy fried chicken is the best k-style fried chicken around the area! Stays crispy even when you order for take out.

    Did this restaurant moved from Castro valley to Hayward?

    Yes

    Do they have rice?

    I ordered Kimchi Rice and it was gooood!!! They also have plain steamed rice.

    Are the wings in the fried chicken full size wings? The pictures look like party wings youd get from Wingstop.…

    They are not full size chicken wings. It is the drummette and flat sections only, not the tip.

This location has a very large parking lot, but closer spots can fill up quick, especially in the evening. The place has several televisions throughout the space. Once you enter, behind the registers you can see the monitors with menu items. To the left you can see the expansive chicken wing flavor options. I recommend the combos, but if you come to this location on Wednesdays, they have a bone in Wing Special (minimum order qty of 10pieces in a single flavor). **they now advertise a boneless wings specials everyday (used to be Tuesdays only) The Order: 10pc Dragon wings (bone in) -The chicken was perfectly battered and well seasoned. It was tossed in a sweet soy sauce garlic sauce that is thick like pancake syrup. This one is very reminiscent to Korean soy garlic. Although it is labled with spice, I do not find it spicy (and my spice comfort level maxes out with hot Cheetos) 10pc Peking Wings -Another sweet coating , but even more thick and a vibrant deep red (similar to the color modeling duck). They do a fantastic job at coating the chicken with the sauce. It maintains the crunchy batter and is a must try. 10pc Salt & Pepper wings -This one really emphasizes the great batter they use on their wings. A nice crunch without too thick of batter. The salt & pepper seasoning brings home the dish. Perfect pairing with any of their side dishes and a beer or soda. Restroom: Their restroom requires a code to get in. Once inside there is a single deadbolt to lock the door. The restroom is an individual restroom with only one toilet. It is decently clean with only the essentials and a surprising amount instructions on orange labels everywhere (*see photos). I recommend you add Fire Wings to your list of chicken wings spots. Even their Garlic noodles were tasty!

A graffiti covered food truck and covered tables and benches with mood lights around the perimeter. Lots of effort was put toward the environment but it still isn't what Oakland location is.

Burger was large enough I didnt need them at all. I think for me that is the whole problem with this place - its all too much. Its like why I don't like Black Bear diner.

We came here with his siblings for a Saturday lunch (5 of us in total) and Eli immediately greeted us and gave us the full rundown of the menu and the story of how his mom and him came to own this place. We decided to actually just eat outside to be able to enjoy the food right away. Once Eli saw we were going to eat there, he was super accommodating and brought us a ton of napkins, salads, extra pickled daikon, and even some drinks! He even brought his mom Esther out to chat with us and it was so wholesome to hear their story! Food - 5/5* AMAZING. We ordered the Volcano Island (spicy) chicken, the Mama Seoul's signature chicken, and some pickled radish. We actually preferred the Mama Seoul's signature (his mom's recipe) over the Volcano island (the original store's recipe that they kept since it was a fan favorite), but they were both super crunchy, juicy, and flavorful. We were also lucky enough to try some of their salad. We learned that the radish and salad dressing were all Esther's own recipes and they paired really well with the chicken. The radish had such amazing crunch and freshness, and the salad dressing was light and tangy. We loved it so much, we actually bought a pint of the salad dressing to take home! All in all, Eli and Esther made us feel like we were eating dinner at their house. Looking forward to coming back again from Fremont (with friends!) and trying more of their KFC flavors and all the other dishes they have to offer.

I stay up at night wondering how good the other items are and when will I ever get to try it. I live over 45 minutes away and was hoping the food would be average so I wouldn't have to make a trip out to eat it but it was amazing. Now I need more reasons to come out to Hayward...

I liked the mushroom version better, which came with a mix of onions and bell pepper. The beef empanadas came with no other ingredients except ground beef, even though the staff told us that all of the empanadas come with onions and bell pepper.
