Don't freak out if you went by the Chicken Box and seen a dirt lot. They moved around the corner on Harbor, it's behind the Winchells donut store. The whole shopping center is getting a face lift. New Owners same GREAT CHICKEN and lumpy Mashed potatoes just like my Ex-wife used to make! read more

The food is absolutely to die for! I never loved ribs so much. The service is great and I love enjoying my food in the restaurant, kind owner/server. I highly recommend for on a daily basis and for parties. #1 top fav! read more

Very good chicken and friendly service. Takes a little while because they cook when ordered which is great as far as I am concerned read more

Chicken is excellent. However, when calling in the order, absolutely no mention was made that the parking lot was completely closed due to repaving and re-striping. This forced us to find parking on a very crowded street. If my handicapped husband had come by himself (like he normally does) he would not have been able to get our order to his car without help. Good customer service would have been to give all callers a heads up about the parking situation. read more

They moved from Whittier Blvd to Harbor Blvd behind Winchells donuts. They have a little more space to dine in and as always it's best to call ahead. read more

I think I just found my new favorite fried chicken place. I'm pretty sensitive when it comes to fried food especially that greasy oil smell, but everything here tasted clean and fresh. You can tell they take good care of their oil. The seasoning was really well-balanced. Not too salty, which made it super easy to keep eating without getting tired of the flavor. We ordered the family meal and the portion size was more than enough. The sides were honestly amazing. The coleslaw and macaroni salad were creamy and flavorful, way better than I expected. They even included Hawaiian rolls, so we made little chicken sandwiches such a fun and delicious bonus :) Definitely a solid 5-star experience for me. Great food, generous portions, and attention to detail in every part of the meal. read more

I would frequent the previous location when they were on Whittier blvd next to Marie Callender's - yesterday while working in the area I decided to stop by 1 min before closing and I was greeted with kindness! I asked if it was too late because they of the closing time. A nice lady said we're still taking orders welcome! This is their new location on harbor blvd behind winchells - chicken is as delicious as always- the gravy on the mashed potatoes was missing something- tasted a bit bland but was still read more

Some of the best fried chicken I've eaten in a long time and it's not greasy! My family has been eating here for the last 10 years. We were worried when they closed on Whittier Blvd but they reopened on Harbor Blvd. read more

Updated my review from a rating of 4 stars to 1 star. The chicken pieces were perfectly golden brown and appeared crispy. However, upon 1st bite, you will be hit by the smell of meat at its early stage of decay. Had they used fresh chicken, theirs will definitely be able to outrank 99% of the chicken places in the area. We are tired of the hype for Korean fried chicken. I am very sad that Chicken Box had declined significantly since an owner-change. read more

Moist fried chciken. The texture is perfect, and the chicken tastes gives you the best of both worlds, fried and broiled.

Visited for the first time at the new location. They did a nice job setting up the place. Plenty of parking at the new spot on Harbor Blvd. The food was tasty, as usual. Everything seemed just about the same as before they moved, except for the price. It's not surprising they'd raise prices, I'm sure their rent is higher at the new location. Still a great option for tasty chicken and potato wedges. I've never been a fan of the macaroni salad and wish they'd change up the recipe. We usually get the family meal and don't want to get two potato sides and not fans of coleslaw. I'm glad they are open again. read more

The Chicken Box recently reopened in it's new location in La Habra and I was excited to give it a try. My girlfriend and I were hungry and wanted something new and we haven't had chicken in awhile so we were so down. I ordered the chicken sandwich and she ordered the chicken strips, we also ordered 6 potato wedges. The menu is not huge but it offers enough to satisfy your needs. The Chicken tasted great and those potato wedges were so delicious. I could probably just eat those for a meal to tell you the truth. The restaurant itself isn't big inside but it's not too small either. The cashier was really nice and it was really busy that evening I went in. So what I'm saying is there might be a line but it's worth it. I'll give it another go soon, that's a sure thing. read more

Well, I can report that Chicken Box is alive and well in its new(er) location. It's actually located just around the bend from its old Whittier Blvd. spot, and now on the west side of Harbor. But for the time being, it's in the middle of a construction quagmire and all but invisible on first (and even second) glance. But the tender and tasty rack of ribs, the fresh salads and delicately crispy chicken, fish filets and broasted potatoes were all winners. Ditto the shrimp and deep-fried Oreos (yes, you heard me right!). I had a monumental box of goodies for the bargain price of just over $150, and it all fed a crowd of hangry folks handsomely. The perky clerk and one of the customers even helped me out with the mega-order. My only fear is that customers won't be as intrepid as I was in hunting down the place. I'm just happy we were reunited at long last. read more

Love this place! The chicken here is so delicious! The potato wedges are the best. Very old school in La Habra, but what isn't! You will not be disappointed in the broasted chicken. read more

The chicken is very bland. NO FLAVOR!!! They dont have sauces to go with it also. I can honestly say I would rather go to KFC unfortunately.

Not the same Chicken Box it used to be. We were pretty regular customers from Whittier and were sad when it moved. We've been to the new location twice and it's just not the same. Coke slaw tasted soggy and the chicken wasn't as crispy or juicy as before. We might try it one more time being that they're still working on their location issues. Am I the only one that feels this way? read more

The chicken and potatoes were delicious! Pleasantly surprised. Will order from Chicken Box again.

I love their chicken, it's my favorite. I typically get wings. My friend got a thigh and it was quite small. Another friend got their fish and it was small too. Their mashed potatoes and gravy have no flavor. The coleslaw is good. I do wish the staff had more personality. They hardly smile or speak, not very welcoming. read more

I have gone to original location for decades. Patrick said that the new location on Harbor would open at the end of February. However, I went by the new location today and the entire strip mall is vacated. I suggest the owner put a new voicemail to reassure his longtime customers. read more

Fast friendly service, food is delicious and hot. Potatoes changed a little bit, but they are scrumptious.

Simply the best broasted / fried chicken around.. not greasy, decent sized pieces of chicken.. love the family pack.. potato wedge and Mac salad.. I added Cole slaw also.. A+! read more

Be going to chicken box throughout the years once they got to the new location decided to try them today. I ordered the chicken strip combo and paid nine dollars for a chicken strip. That wasn't even the size of my finger. It was hard dried and curled up. Would not recommend waste of my money tried calling to let them know and they were extremely rude hung up and didn't want to fix the issue. basically they tried to say that they have nothing but great reviews. I was extremely disappointed, especially with the money. I spent hoping this was gonna be the place that used to be. Portions are extremely small prices went up and overall quality went down. Wondering if this is even the original owner at this point. Would not recommend waste of your money. read more

Chicken Box - 3 piece chicken - Seafood Near Me - La Habra, California

First of all I heard good reviews about this place I just moved to the area and decided to give it a try. I chose the 3 pieces with 2 sides which was potatoes wedges and Mac salad. The chicken isn't seasoned. I got 3 measly wedges and they even put the Mac salad in the hot box and if you know Mac salad should be served cold. I asked for hot sauce and got 3 packets. I'm a cook and this wasn't cook with any love! Not going back good luck oh and the lady with the lip fillers and blonde hair should work on customer service. I'm sorry but you're Better off going to Popeyes and the Mac salad is store bought shame. read more

Giving a neutral 3 stars because I haven't been able to try the food. We went by last night to find it closed with a sign on the door that they moved. So we drove to the new location and there's nothing there. Sure wish they'd update their sign with a date to save people the runaround. Hope it returns soon. read more

First time trying this place and we are pleasantly impressed! Grandma's Chicken used to be our go-to spot back then until they closed down. We had a random craving for those broasted chicken for old times' sake, so we were happy when we stumbled across this one. Went with 0 expectations, but now we are regulars! The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. I felt that their thighs were actually more moist than Grandma's Chicken. Their hot sauce had a funky, bright red color, but I love any louisana sauce, so I'm not complaining. I'm not sure if their macaroni salad and their dinner rolls are store-bought or made in-house, but they were delicious with each other. Potato wedges were unremarkable, but I did appreciate that they were cooked through and soft (some of these giant wedges tend to be a little under at times). 1 star docked because they would not pick up their phone for the life of me (they were not even that busy when we got there). We live 25 minutes away, so a phone order placed prior to getting there with 2 cranky babies would've helped. We drove 25 minutes to get there, only for the cashier to let us know that our order will take another 25 minutes. Mind you, she told us this after she had already charged us. Would appreciate it if they can pick up their phone next time to take togo orders. read more

Our favorite fried chicken and ribs. They have great sides too and always the Hawaiian rolls. Hoping they relocate and not close permanently. read more

This establishment is under new owners that claim that they bought the business including the original recipe for the chicken. This must be a lie because the so called food we received was c**p! The chicken coating was this and not at all like it was under original owners. The meat smelled rancid, the broasted potatoes were almost bare skinned. Awful food. We went right before closing so couldn't take it back. Be warned. This is not the chicken box that served fresh delicious chicken. So very sad. Stay clear! read more

Gave 4 stars because they forgot our wedges even thou we told them order three times

Best chicken!! My son loves the ribs. We've been going to Chicken Box for many years.

Very good broasted chicken, tastes like the kind I grew up with in the 60's. The sides are very good as well. All the vintage decorations are interesting to look at while your lunch is cooking. I usually place a phone order, and pickup 20 minutes or so later. I hope they reopen in a new location in Whittier or La Habra as I hear thru the grapevine. read more

I've been eating at Chicken box since 1997 & EVERYTHING on their menu was BOMB but through the yrs it's lost consistency mostly on the sides. The fried chicken is usually good but we've gone a few times in the last few mths & I'm happy to let u know the chicken is BOMB AGAIN! The mac salad taste like hawaiin style, which I love. The rolls are good- nothing exciting & the big fat fried potatoes are BOMB too. The mashed potatoes are not good, at least that's my opinion. But fried chicken is SCRUMPTOUSLY FRESH & crispy read more

Chicken was well seasoned and crispy. Haven't been to new location but I'm sure it's just as tasty.

New location is clean and Chicken still tasty. Would be nice if they serve drinks from a fountain with ice instead of cans like the old place. But overall it's still good. One of the tables was very flimsy and kept on buckling. Would be nice if they bring back more homey decorations to keep the classic look. Air condition very nice. Come back and try it again ! read more

The chicken is prepared to order and served hot and juicy. I also love the cole slaw which resembles the KFC slaw that I really like. Definitely call ahead with your order as it takes at least 15 minutes to get your order. Chicken Box has a few tables but it primarily serves the takeout crowd. Service is friendly. read more
