We've been here quite a few times for pickup orders, and everything we've tried has been delicious. Some of our regular orders include the juicy rotisserie chicken, wraps, chicken pasta salad, roasted potatoes, and veggie rice. We honestly haven't had a bad item yet. One thing to note: the wraps aren't quite as good the next day because the tortilla gets a little soggy. So if you're ordering a wrap, I'd recommend eating it the same day for the best texture. There's a long bench where you can wait for your order, along with a couple of small tables outside. Even though the person taking orders is outside, they're very efficient and keep everything moving pretty quickly. Great spot for an easy and delicious pickup meal. We'll definitely keep coming back. read more

I have been coming here for a long time. The last two times I picked up my salad I have noticed a SIGNIFICANT DIFFERENCE in the quantity of ingredients. Quality is still good, but the quantity is not. Previously there was about 3/4 cup of chicken and same for the pasta. I actually measured today because it seemed so small. The chicken measured about a HALF cup of chicken and barely HALF cup of pasta. Same price though. Very disappointing! read more

I ordered the Ranch Wrap with white pita. There was no line when we ordered, but the food took awhile to be ready. The place seemed to have a lot of to go orders. The Ranch Wrap was refreshing and filling with the avocado and the sprouts. It was a good portion size. The ranch sauce was nice on the side. The chicken wasn't dry at all. read more

First off - I love the colors of this place. It's so bright and fun! I placed an order online and picked it up. It wasn't ready when I arrived even though it said it was going to be ready when I went to pick it up, but it wasn't a huge deal. They were busy and it was around lunch. I only had to wait for a little bit. I got the Caesar Wrap and overall it was good. The chicken is dry but when you add the Caesar dressing to it, it makes it much tastier. Friendly staff and plenty of parking. read more

I had the 1/4 Rotisserie Chicken Dark & Roasted Potatos. The chicken is very good very moist & flavorful and the potatos were also very good. Not what I expected but better then I expected with a variety of potatos and some onion. What I ended up doing was taking the chicken off the bone and mixing some of it in with the potatos, Excellent combo! There is some outdoor seating none inside. You actually order outside but no complaints. The staff is friendly and the whole area is neat and clean. There is plenty of parking in the large shared parking lot but it can get busy at lunch time. read more

Dare I say this was the best chicken caesar salad wrap I have ever had. It was everything I wanted in more with avocado, pita chip crisps, and a good amount of chicken. I would say to maybe go light on the pita chips as towards the end it made the wrap salty but noted for next time. They only have outdoor seating but plenty of it with very colorful vibes. The staff was also nice and their service was pretty quick considering the amount of customers they had! Will be taking everyone I know back here when I'm back in LA. read more

CCC has always been good. Not sure why they changed their model from eat in to to-go only after Covid. Food still good. Wraps are all good and the rotisserie chicken also really good and juicy. read more

It was my first time trying wraps from Calif Chicken Cafe and I am impressed! I tried their Melrose wrap recently which I heard is one of the most popular. I instantly could tell why this is such a beloved wrap. It's huge in both size and flavor. It's packed with chicken, avocado, white cheddar cheese, greens, onions and tomatoes. It's smothered with mayo inside but it is also accompanied with Italian dressing. With its large size, the wrap easily was enough for two meals! I was full after just eating half. I was definitely happy and content. Flavor-wise everything on point. I loved the tender chicken plus fresh greens and avocado. Calif Chicken Cafe makes some awesome wraps and I can't wait to try their other wraps soon! read more

I've picked up lunch from here and had salads wraps, and I have tried almost all of the sauces. Definitely add a sauce to whatever you order they're all top-tier!! parking is not that easy but they just opened up three spots for pick ups making it easy for people who are just on a quick lunch rush. There's also cute seating for small parties. Must try!! read more

So glad more and more CCCs are opening South of LA. Used to frequent them in West LA, and now there's one closer to me. Randomly driving around El Segundo when we found this CCC location. Easy parking in a nice clean plaza with multiple food options. While there's outside seating, this location feels more like it's intended to be a to-go, quick pick up option. Everything, except the kitchen is basically done outside. Workers take your orders outside and will bring it to you when ready. The food quality is still very good compared to other CCC locations. It's fresh, healthy, and an excellent option any time of day. Our favorite go-to item is the Chinese chicken salad, dressing on the side. They're dressing isn't your typical "Asian" dressing. It's a mix of sweet, nutty, and fresh. Try it for yourself, you won't regret it. Half chicken or all dark meat is great if you just wanted chicken. Juicy and flavorful chicken. The skin can be very salty sometimes, but good with the chicken meat The wraps are good as well, Caesar, Chinese chicken. All are good options. For sides, my two favorites are the pasta salad and the potatoes. The potatoes are well seasoned, and the pasta salad is my "cheat" dish. Pasta, chicken, green onions, tossed in thousand island dressing. Yum! Glad there's one somewhat closer to me now without having to drive up to LA. read more

I have been eating at California Chicken Cafe whenever I am near LA area after a return back to LAX or near downtown before a game and forget to post how much we love this place. Excellent rotisserie chicken tender tasty with the side of broccoli pasta and mash with gravy hits the spot! I wish they had these in OC as this would be my go to on dinner nights for something quick yet homemade tasting. read more

The Baseline: For California Chicken Cafe the chicken must be cooked well, taste awesome, the side of roasted potatoes must be savory, the additional items must be fresh, and the service must stand up to expectations. Food: The food at CCC is good. Got the vegetable soup which is tasty. Also the Chinese Chicken salad with dressing on the side. I had to come back to pick up the dressing which was not included in my food order. Service: I came and got my dressing that was left off my order. Travis came out and made it right. Atmosphere: They have tables and chairs out front now. read more

Their food is always good here! It's fresh and mobile ordering just makes it's all much easier. So this review is not about the quality of their food but for their customer service. When the person that's handling the orders approaches my car and asks me for my name, and I give them my name and then proceeds to snap and goes to say, "we have multiple orders with that name! What's your last name?" With the ugliest attitude. How on earth would I know that there are "multiple orders" with my same first name. If they were to ask for first and last name then I will give that to them, but I wasn't asked that so I assume first name will be enough. After I received my meal, I confronted the worker and told them they can be a little nicer and not speak with hostility when dealing with customers, instead of apologizing I was accused of having a bad day and I was taking it out on them. They were cutting me off and not allowing me to speak. And they also said they don't want to speak with me, they are busy with a lot of customers. Disgusting behavior! They proceed to grab the manager Stephen and after telling him what happened, he didn't really do anything but say he'll talk to them. I am shocked by such behavior. Management really needs to do better at training team members on etiquette. Accusing customers and not taking any accountability is insane and very much bad for business. Please do better. This is how you lose customers. read more

I have only tried their Caesar wrap which is delicious! The chicken is always tasty and the croutons add a nice amount of crunch. The Caesar dressing they serve on the side offers a nice tang to the taste. Their broccoli pasta salad is also very good and I loved the Chinese cabbage salad which was simple but clean flavors. The gentleman working the front desk was super friendly and just helpful in general. It's a very casual atmosphere and more of a spot where you pick up your food to-go although they did have some outdoor tables available for dining. Also - prices are great for the quality of the food. Highly recommend. read more

I would like to share my experience because I believe customer service is very important. When I went to place my order, the supervisor Letty who assisted me had a very rude and unwelcoming attitude. I asked for some help understanding the menu, but instead of taking the time to explain it, I felt like she was unwilling to help. I understand that everyone can have a bad day, but as a supervisor, I believe she should maintain a professional and respectful attitude toward customers. I hope this feedback can be taken as an opportunity to improve the customer experience at the restaurant. Apart from all that, the food is always delicious. read more

Holy crapola, I waited almost 30 minutes for ONE WRAP. Had I known it would take this long for a single chicken wrap I would have completely avoided this place and will not be coming back or recommending the place unless you order ahead with enough time to wait. I got the Chinese Wrap and it is tasty and filling. The vegetables tasted fresh and the described crunch is there read more

Food was great , service was excellent and ambience was very pleasant to in . If you want a healthy meal this the place . I will definitely recommend this location here their prompt service and very nice workers are excellent. read more

The Melrose Wrap at California Chicken Cafe is delicious. The chicken is tender. The avocado, mild white cheddar, greens, tomatoes, and the Italian dressing on the side ties everything together. It's a well-balanced wrap that feels hearty without being too heavy. read more

California Chicken Cafe serves flavorful, fresh and delicious food. The El Segundo location has a drivethrough and outdoor seating (no inside seating) Parking is crowded. We circled the lot closest to the Cafe, but every spot was taken. It was a Monday at noon. I dropped off my husband and found parking further out, close to the urgent care. The Cafe shares a parking lot with other restaurants. I chose the one quarter dark chicken and my husband, half a chicken. He remarked that the chickens must be petite, smaller portions than other specialty chicken restaurants we frequent. The chicken was juicy, succulent, and well-seasoned. We both chose the steamed squash as a side dish. Since the servings were generous, we could have ordered only one steamed squash. We brought home leftover squash. I ordered the well seasoned potatoes which are sauteed with bits of onion. My husband and I shared this yummy side order and ate the whole portion. We both ended up with a little leftover chicken. Our food order was taken by a server staffing a podium in front of the café. She was highly efficient and made helpful suggestions. Our food was delivered to our outdoor table by a helpful server, who asked if we needed anything else. She got us more napkins. We were fortunate to find a shaded table, close to the water station. The tables were all occupied when we first arrived. I have been a fan of California Chicken Cafe since one opened in Santa Monica in the 1990's. At that time, they offered generous sized chicken combination plates which included one or two sides, outstanding Chinese chicken salad, and yummy chicken wrap sandwiches. We must return to this location to try their salads and wraps. It would be smart to order in advance for pickup or come dine at a less busy time of the day. I can see why there were lines in front. It is worth trying out and sharing the good food. read more

My friend recommended this place and I decided to go with the California Chicken Salad. I was pleasantly surprised when my friend showed up with this big boy in hand! California Chicken Salad 5/5: The portions are huge and it was a great price. There was a very nice balance of everything; filling and healthy! Sauces were plentiful and brought harmony to the entire salad. Would 100% come back for this! read more

It's taken me a while to stop by for pick up. This is my favorite salad place on the west side, so now that it's here it's a lot easier to go and get. My favorite is the CCC salad - and I get it without the cheese. The rest is spot on, I mix the dressing in and then it's a complete meal that is filling. I still wish that they kept their indoor seating model, but it's ok, I get take out and go home. read more

Delicious food and even better service. We ordered online and they have a whole set-up for pick up that just makes everything so easy! Definitely a good choice during the lunch rush. read more

Upon rediscovering this classic favorite restaurant of my past where I used to go to a location (different than this one) that was convenient for weekday lunches... I was eventually displaced from a CCC that was convenient for me and it became soon tragically forgotten due to the logistics of commuting/traveling to any inconvenient geographic location. This is in the South Bay of El Segundo and serves the Beach Cities well. Parking is easy too! I always go for the Asian/ Chinese Chicken Salad. read more

I wanted to order from this location online but I had a question regarding the SIZE of the side salads. They have side salads in lieu of some of their more popular, full size salads, which is great. From the looks of the full size salads they are quite large. I wanted to order a couple of their side salads along with a few other items. Not being familiar with their salads, not having eaten at CCC for about 20-years and never having dined at this location, I called to inquire about the size of the side salads. The woman who answered the phone doesn't speak clear and concise English. I do. She clearly didn't understand what I was asking, even after I repeated myself multiple times. After being tired of receiving answers to questions I never asked, I asked if she could put someone on the phone who would better understand and actually answer my questions. Then came the attitude/lack of professionalism. "I'm the person who is going to be answering your question, so you can ask again." If you were the person who was going to be answering my question, you would have answered it the first time I asked. I'm not sure who tf people think they are, but I know who I'm not - a customer of this location. I order my fair share of delivery fare, so I want to thank you for saving me time and money, because I hate wasting either. Train your staff properly, or better yet, hire more capable staff, because they're costing you money. I recommend this establishment to absolutely no one. read more

Sadly, this is the 2nd time this month that their Chinese chicken salad makes me violently ill. The first time was on July 8th. I was unsure at first but now it's obvious this place isn't washing their lettuce or cross contaminating. I have been up all night with food poisoning. Such a bummer! read more

I sure do like my CA Chicken Cafe!!!. Everytime I drive by a locations, I grab something to eat on the way because there are no locations in OC!!!! What I love about getting food here is their rotisserie chicken. Super juice, well-seasoned, and reliably good. My favorite is their white-meat quarter chicken. I often get their Chinese Chicken Salad which I've heard is also one of their top-ranked menu items. This salad features white meat chicken, almonds, Mandarin oranges, Chinese noodles, and a side of Chinese dressing -- a fresh-and-crunchy contrast to the warm rotisserie items. I like to get an extra side of dressing as its hard to make at home. I often splurge and get their Chewy Coco-Nut Cookie as a dessert and it taste great! Overall, good experience here. Will be back here next time I am waiting for guest pickup at LAX. read more

wow am I disappointed in this location. I don't believe I've ever put a single star review... but this experience just now deserves it... 7pm Friday evening in the pouring rain during so cal atmospheric river and place my order for dark chicken meal, two sides a wrap, and two cookies. Said give them 10-15 min since they're busy. Totally ok. So far so good right...??? They are watching me standing in rain and cold. Now almost 30 min since order and trying to be patient and I ask for a quick time check. Apparently the mobile terminal that they took my order on didn't go through despite them saying everything ok when I completed the order. No "oh my gosh I'm so extremely sorry we didn't catch that" nor "hey can i throw in the cookies for free given the situation"... just very nonchalantly had me repeat the order like we did before and they handed me print out receipt this time...just in case I get charged twice so I could get a refund. Waited another 10 min to get it. So now we are 40 min into this... The kicker is the atmospheric river. Pouring rain and cold and still trying to patronize their location but definitely makes me think twice when treated this way. Sad because been to this location a lot (and others too, but this one quite a bit) and never experienced anything like this. Their food is fantastic and will definitely be back to try over again, but just disappointed in how this all went down. read more

I LOVE calif chicken cafe. Their Cesar chicken wrap is a must with a chocolate chunk cookie for dessert. I would recommend ordering online for pick up as they don't have indoor seating but they do have a bunch of seats outside. read more

Quick, fresh and clean! Despite how busy this storefront is, I was quickly served on a lunch rush. I tried the Ranch Wrap and Chicken Pasta Salad Side. The wrap was large enough for me to eat just half, whereas my colleague ate his entire wrap. Another colleague had their Chinese Chicken Salad which was crunchy and delicious with the wonton crisps. My personal favorite was the Chicken Pasta Salad Side since it had a good balance of protein to pasta! Parking was a bit difficult as the spots are compact and there are multiple companies coming through for lunch. However, service was friendly and fast once you park! read more

Quick service and good food! We ate here before going to the airport and it was perfect

i must put a comment here. first of all food was nice and service prompt and smily. but on top of that that and in a global comment i want to point than i have forgotten my laptop and no one from the guest or the restaurant team has stolen it as it would probably happened to my country. So thank you to the amercian people from El Segundo area and the restaurant team for the kindness and honesty Arnaud read more

Another bug! This time in a salad. Smushed into this piece of lettuce. They're either not washing the lettuce thoroughly - which is concerning given the current outbreak ..... or they have a gnat/fly problem that they need to sort out. Either way it's off putting to find bugs in your food multiple times. After giving them a second chance, I think we're done. Food always tasted good and service was always quick. It's a shame they can't seem to sort out such a minor issue. read more

This a streamlined take-out only healthy option among many very good chain restaurants next door to each other. I ordered a Chinese chicken salad on the spot that came out fairly quickly.

The California Chicken Cafe was recommended to us, and we are glad that it was. I had the Rancho Chicken Wrap and the Vegetable soup. Both were delicious and hearty. I only ate one-half of the wrap as it was filling. My wife had the freshly steamed squash and enjoyed it, although it could have used more spice. Would I go back there for take out? Absolutely. The food was fresh and tasty, if you use the ranch dressing. read more

A colleague mentioned she's heard good things about this place, "especially the wraps." So she suggested comin' through. I wasn't really hungry, so I opted for a couple of pieces of chicken thighs and mashed potatoes and gravy. My friend got a Caesar wrap. We took our orders to go. CHICKEN THIGHS: At first I was disappointed to find 2 small pieces. (It really is just one regular sized thigh cut in 2 pieces.) The flavor, however, was on point! They were cooked through with no hint of dryness. The seasoning is perfect! Its quality certainly made up for its quantity. MASHED POTATOES: Soft and creamy and seasoned so well, I didn't even need the gravy! This might be one of the better mashed potatoes I've had! Yum! FOOD: 4. SERVICE: 3. VALUE: 3. PARKING: Shared with other spots. They've added a lot of businesses here (this one included) so it has gotten crowded. It gets busy during the lunch rush. Shouldn't be a long wait for a spot to open if it comes down to that. OVERALL: 3.25. TIPS: They have outdoor seating only. They only accept cashless payments. My colleague really liked her wrap. I also really liked my food. We already spoke about doing a 2nd (and possibly more) visits. Will update review as needed. read more

This is my new favorite place to get a salad!! This was my second time trying CA chicken cafe. There is plenty of parking in the shared lot. There are other restaurants in the complex. The first time that I went, I ordered there. It took a little while for my order to be ready. There is a stand to place your order and some outdoor seating. Today I ordered ahead of time online, and I got my order right away! I really like the Chinese chicken salad! There's so much food & it's delicious! I also enjoy the broccoli pasta! This will be my go-to salad spot. Would recommend ordering ahead of time online. read more
