    Fun and simple menu here all about their chicken - and knowing your level of spice you like! (Of the chicken, not in the sauce mind you!). As for how to order it - you can get it in a slider, on toast, or over rice as the 3 main options - else deconstructed and sliced up in a bowl with rice/fries or Mac n cheese! That's about it - some combo of the above and choose your spice level from none (country!?) to Angry. As a reference point the girl behind the counter said ghost peppers enter the equation at Hot so beware people!! I had the medium and it was very good - but didn't feel 1 level away from ghost peppers scary so I might try the hot next time and work my way up...!? Inside was cool and open area with tables on the side. Workers were cool and friendly. Food took maybe 4 minutes so not bad! A fun place to spice it up!

    This was the Angry Mac medium hot and this was of the hook; very delicious.

    Great customer service and great fresh chicken. The chicken is really good and most important this place is very clean. The temperature inside the restaurant is nice and cool. Bathrooms are very clean. I will definitely come back, one of the best Angry Chickz restaurants I have ate in. I really recommend this Angry Chikz.

    Messy, juicy, deliciousness. I came here a couple weeks ago and decided to come back since I enjoyed it and it's near a gym I go to. I got a slider (medium spice) and mac & cheese. My bf got the #1 (2 sliders & fries) The chicken in all the sliders were huge and juicy. The coleslaw in them was yummy but extremely messy. I loved drenching mine in honey for some sweet heat. Pricing is reasonable but on the higher end for a chicken place; the two of us were stuffed for ~$37. I think this place blows Dave's and Cane's out of the water in terms of flavor and quality. I can see myself coming back frequently!

    Mac n cheese

    One of the best fried chicken and fries places in the bay! Perfectly fried chicken with a ton of flavor. The sauce is also really good with the fries or as extra sauce on the sandwich. The seasoning on the fries are also amazing.

    The medium heat level is the perfect spicy. You get the spice and a tasteful flavor. The hot level was too hot couldn't taste the flavor. The slogan is limitless flavor; but I think the limit is "hot" level. Couldn't taste the flavor after eating the hot level. The service is fast and the place was pretty empty when I visited.

    I decided to randomly drop by after hearing it from a co-worker. The store location is isolated in a mini block line of businesses? I ordered #3 which consists of a chicken burger and another tender on bread with fries. I was delighted to discover if you want to get the "spicy" spice level, they would let you taste it first. As this place uses ghost reapers which are pretty damn spicy. As expected, it's hot, to the point where it will hurt your mouth. So I stuck to medium spicyness and enjoyed the meal. I have no qualms against the price, this is high quality chicken specializing in spice levels and taste

    I ordered the #4 it was chicken with butter rice and Cole slaw. The chicken was SO juicy. The restaurant had a fun atmosphere. Service was quick! Definitely recommend.

    Slider and tender combo

    I've gone to this plaza so many times but never tried Angry Chickz till recently. Their options are similar to other chicken places (white bread, tender and slider combo, etc). I opted for their slider and tender combo. I can't handle spice too well and got the country (no spice) and mild. The slaw was good and their sauce is really good. The chicken slider and tender sizing was a good size too. The sauce is like Chik Fil A's but with more spice. The mild tender had a kick to it, it was bearable but I wouldn't get it again. Unless it's drowned in their sauce and I have another bread. Service was quick and the staff was nice. The inside has several dining tables. I'll definitely go back.

    Really wanted to love this place - the chicken was delicious, juicy and succulent. But, I selected medium heat, which basically meant they just put dry chili powder or paprika or some kind of rub on the outside of the chicken which made it totally unenjoyable. Don't breathe by mistake near your chicken or you inhale a huge amount of nasty powder. Quick service and reasonable if spartan setting and everyone else enjoyed the mac & cheese and the fries were excellent. Just can't get over their main offering being so unfortunate this time.

    DO NOT GET THE RICE = 5 stars Call me crazy but the rice bowl was pretty horrible haha. But I'm here often so here we go3 A staple in my lunch rotation when I worked at Guitar Center Santa Clara Angry Mac is our typical go to but anything paired with the sweet tea (except the rice lol) will be a winner. Fast service. Dirty calories.

    I heard about Angry Chickz for a while now. It's going to open in Fremont, which is where I live. Because it's still closed, I decided to go to a nearest location which is in San Jose close to Westfield Valley Fair Mall. I have different takes when it comes to the food here. The fries are totally delicious especially with good seasonings they added to it and how crispy they are. The chicken meat unfortunately tastes like nothing, but you may want to dip it in the sauce to get the taste. The skin with the mild coatings tastes flavorful. The slider also makes up for that taste too. The atmosphere of this place is very similar to other chicken shops and I am quite surprised how fast the service is. I'm looking forward to dining the same establishment in Fremont soon!

    Angry Mac + combo #1

    This is the fast food fried chicken spot #OAT. Canes and chikfila do not even compare.. - seasoning and crunch on fries were perfect - mac&cheese was nothing special, could be richer but fast food is fast food - sliders were solid !! - medium heat is easy to handle for someone with a low spice tolerance such as myself - service was quick, received order in less than 10 mins I think With how expensive takeout is these days I think this meal was worth the money spent :p

    Open faced on white tenders
    Gerald L.

    Solid 4's all around! I had the two open faced chicken tenders on white bread with fries combo meal. I chose mild and in hindsight should have gone hotter cuz it had zero spice at all. Unless they accidentally gave me zero spice ones. But still, the flavor was good. The special sauce is like mayo or thousand island or something. Not spicy. The seasoned fries are what caught my attention. Yes they're battered so obviously more tasty than your average fry, but they were seriously good. And crispy like I like fries! The combo meal and drink was $18 which seems super pricey to me but oh well. Located in a very non-descriptive strip mall in Saratoga Ave. My buddy had the sando and open face combo. But it was spacious and clean and quick.

    Is the breading Gluten Free? Are the fries Gluten free?

    Is the chicken halal?

    Yes it is

    Is the chicken dipped in buttermilk?? Is there any dairy in the chicken?

    Nope

    Is it possible to get a loaded Mac but without the fries? So it would just be the chicken and Mac & cheese?

    Sure, you should be able to ask them to modify the order in any way you need.

    January 2022: Is this place open & if so, can we place an order for pick up?

    It's open but they don't take phone orders unless it's by door dash . You can only place in person orders.

    Is this place even open? Maps through my iPhone says permanently closed. Website and Yelp don't have a phone number listed and website won't allow me to place a pickup order. Don't wanna drive all the way there if it's already shut down. Anyone know?

    They do not take phone orders, so they do not list a phone number. I work in the area and they open around 11 am or so. It's best to go during the week, they get crazy busy on the weekends. They are in the Saratoga Plaza by the 7 Leaves Tea spot.… Read more

    Is the chicken halal?

    Yes, it is

    Is this halal?

    Yes, they confirmed to us they're halal when we went last Friday

    The Sacramento location is halal, is this location halal as well?

    I have been here and have seen no indication of it so far :/. Inshallah they will eventually.

    Hi! Do you use halal chicken?

    Yes it is halal, we got verbal confirmation from the cashier

    I've seen a few photos of a specific Angry Chickz employee not wearing a mask properly. How seriously is this establishment taking COVID-19 precautions because it's quite concerning?

    In my experience, the staff does a fair job of it, but the customers generally do not and there is no enforcement. (Customers without masks, not distancing, etc.)

    Can you preorder online?

    Only for some locations. Not yet for the San Jose one.

    How hot is the angry?

    I LOVE spicy food, but almost KOed with X-HOT so I can't even imagine Angry.

    Can you place an order over the phone?

    There's no phone number

I stumbled upon this place one day while doing my random walk, so you KNOW I had to give this place a try. I had went in upon opening time, so my wait was a little bit, but I was not complaining because you know what they say: "Greatness comes when you build them up one by one." I got their hamburger with the extra cheese, and curly fries. The patty was extra juicy, and the brioche buns were toasted really well. I especially like how they added on the cheese after the patty was marinated on the grill for quite a while, but not too long to the point all of the juice was sucked up. The only down side to the food: the prices. Be prepared to spend quite a bit on lunch if you decide to go to this place, because they do end up charging quite a bit more than what the regular places around Downtown would. But the IPA beers make up for it, so it's also worth a bang for your buck. Hospitality was pretty top-notch -- my order was taken in an orderly fashion, and they even apologized for the wait as well.

And despite it being a breast, they kept it very juicy. * Really loved their fries; I'm not sure if they make them in-house or if they're frozen, but regardless, they're fantastic.
