Great food, excellent service! We had a very last minute late-night craving for the G. Unfortunately, we weren't able to finalize our order until 12:55am. We felt bad since they were about to close but Sameet and his crew were simply fantastic. They prioritized getting our orders done while maintaining a professional and friendly demeanor. We had a nice little chat as we waited for our food. They did not skimp out on any ingredient, and even gave us a few extras. Highly commendable team and good food as always! read more

The staff is amazing! Hands down very friendly and helpful. However I'm not sure about the chicken. I was excited to try this place because the reviews are highly regarded. I tried ordering 1 piece of dark meat just to try it, I end up buying the 4 pcs, because they charge $10 only for one pcs. Yup you heard that right. I asked the cashier if I was hearing that right and he verified. Maybe he was new and did not know what he was doing but I end up spending about $31.00 for 4 pieces with drinks and fry's and also sauces. Definitely a disappointment! The chicken is heavily battered, crispy but bland, chicken has a flavor but it just doesn't taste like a fried chicken should be. I think I should have just had the chicken sandwich which would have been better, if you're coming to this place don't order any bone in chicken, complete waste of money. Just order the tenders and chicken sandwich read more

I guess I built up this fried chicken in my mind too much. Had four pieces of dark with fries. The fries were underdone. The chicken was cooked through and the crunch was very satisfying. I tasted the spicy marinade and liked that. The legs were plump and juicy. Maybe on the overdone side. The thighs were a weird cut. I got one thigh that was majorly cut in half with part of a leg bone still attached. Maybe it was missing a third of the meat. The other thigh was mostly backbone. You can serve thighs that are butchered wrong. Made me sad. My friend had the chicken fingers and thought they were mid. The sauces weren't anything to write home about. I guess the magic is in the sandwiches but at $15 a pop that's kinda pricing me out. So for the price of around $24 for - 4 piece and fries with Texas toast, average sauces and weird thighs, I can't say I will come back. I did like the crunch however thighs should be triangles, not narrow bony rectangles. PS it's not Texas Toast. It's just wonder bread. read more

This is a solid spot if you're craving chicken late night. Parking is a bit limited and the place itself is kind of small, but there is seating both inside and outside, which helps. Portion sizes are definitely a highlight. We ordered the 5 tenders with mac and cheese, bread, and fries, and it was more than enough to split between two people. Good value for how much food you get. The chicken was crispy on the outside and moist on the inside. Fries were alright; my husband and I just wanted it slightly crispier but seasoning was good. Mac and cheese was good. Loved the cheese and pasta was cooked well. Food came out fairly quickly, though the service itself was just okay, nothing standout but not bad either. read more

Just to get some of the not so great things about Chicken G out of the way; it's not a very sanitary place, and it's not at all a fancy place at all. However, if you want a lot of food for ~ 15 bucks, then Chicken G is the place. The chicken is so tender here, and it's a fun place to just hang out after Volleyball. It's deserving of a 5 star rating! Keep up the good food! read more

Came here for a quick takeout order on a Sunday around 2pm and there were a few customers eating inside, but no line! Not a whole lot of seating options inside, so more of a casual quick bite or takeout place! ~the food~ - The Big G (~$15) : HUGE fried chicken sandwich! The fried chicken pieces here are very generous and definitely freshly fried! The chicken was super crispy, juicy, and had great seasoning/flavors! It was a bit oily, but hey it's a fried chicken sandwich lol the sandwiches comes with your choice of a side, and we went with the seasoned fries which was also super hot and fresh! ~parking~ there's a small parking lot behind the shop, but also plenty of street parking around the area! ~overall~ it took about 10-15mins for our food to be ready after we ordered since they cook everything fresh! overall, i think this is a great takeout spot for fried chicken! i will definitely be back to maybe try their fried chicken platter! read more

Chicken G's - Big G with seasoned fries - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

It is very rare that I give place open late in Mountain View a rating of less than four stars and it's also rare that I give a place specializing in fried chicken a rating of greater than three stars. Therefore this place was a toss-up in terms of stars when in came to my dining experience here. I know that in today's climate, I may have my citizenship revoked for saying the following but I am not the biggest fan of fried chicken. It's just not my go-to choice when it comes to the American classics. I honestly don't even care for the fried chicken served at Ad Hoc or Wayfare Tavern, which both serve the gold standards for fried chicken according to foodies. With that being said, I do understand what constitutes quality fried chicken and that involves a perfectly seasoned batter and an incredibly tender chicken. Chicken G's delivers on both those aspects. Their fried chicken is some of the best that I've eaten. The sides here are also quite tasty. I got the fries, which were seasoned perfectly and the mac and cheese, which consisted of a béchamel that was incredible. It's been a while since I ordered from a fried chicken eatery that had sides that were great. Chicken G's has all of the qualities that usually result in me loving a place... it's open late, it has a limited menu so as to not to overwhelm you with multiple options, and it delivers on fantastic quality with said limited menu. The "cherry on top" is that this place is located right around the corner from my apartment so it's definitely a go-to for any late night cravings! read more

I got the loaded g fries, which comes with some pieces of chicken. While the flavor was there, the whole thing was too heavy for me so I got full pretty fast. I ended up taking at least half home. The portion is huge - definitely shareable. Most of the chicken pieces I ate felt more like the fried skin, and not the meat itself. The fries were great when freshly made, but not that amazing once it cooled down. I'd suggest sticking with their chicken sandwiches instead. I tried a few bites of my fiancé's sandwich and it was very flavorful, juicy, and huge. read more

Chicken G's - Loaded G fries - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

It was a late night. I didn't have too many places to eat at because everything's closed. Luckily, a place called Chicken G's was open near me. When we got there we noticed it had its own parking lot in the back, bathrooms not in the restauraunt, and about 5 tables of seating. The inside looks like your typical american diner. On walls they put "This isn't fast food, it's fresh", to let us know that it will take time to make our food. We decided to order the naughty sandwich. One thing that really stood out to me was that the cashier wiped our table before we sat down. Really didn't expect that, a nice little touch. When the sandwich came, I was floored. This thing was HUGE. I literally couldn't even fit it in my mouth in 1 bite, I had to chip at it bit by bit. but oh man, it definitely did not disappoint- it was craaaazy juicy, with a nice spicy kick from the serranos. The crispiness and juiciness really blew me away- it's like a tier above other fried chicken (buttermilk style, so don't compare it to nashville). When we asked the cashier for more peppers, he really hooked us up- he gave us a tray of them! I was so amazed because I was just not expecting them to actually fill our outrageous request. The fries were pretty good, but I was so full from the chicken I ended up taking most of them home. I wholeheartedly recommend this place to anyone and I'll for sure be coming back when my fried chicken craving hits again! read more

Chicken G's - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

Usually very consist and very good with good sized chicken strips. My most recent order was terrible. Probably 1-2 oz worth of chicken and the rest was burnt overcooked breading. Unsure if new cook team, but I find it hard to believe they threw this into a box and sent it out purposefully read more

Overall 3.5 stars We have taken this spot to go, and it was okay,I not sure about the hyped reviews as I felt the chicken was missing some flavor and seasoning and it felt a bit bland. To me bland fried chicken isn't worth the calories hence deducted 1.5 stars. My husband said they had excellent customer service read more

I really wanted to like this place. I have friends who come here often, and I currently live nearby. But after a few tries, I think Chicken G's isn't right for me. Starting with the pros. The service is typically fast and friendly. You do get a lot of bang for your buck, as the servings are generous. And, when I taste the chicken, I can tell it's well-seasoned, flavorful, and made-to-order. But, I just think the fried chicken is just way too heavy & oily. The breading is excessive, as my mouth dries before I get to the chicken underneath. The sides, like the fries and coleslaw, are also average. While I appreciate Chicken G's and acknowledge some like what's offered, I feel there are better places for fried chicken, even for halal customers. read more

Chicken G's - Loaded G-Fries - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

The best halal fried chicken in the bay area. The best zinger burger. The bad boy is an all time banger.

Came here on a Monday afternoon. It wasn't very busy, but the food did take a while to come out. The interior is decent, nothing fancy but it seems like a chill hangout spot, especially since they're open until 1 a.m. We ordered The G Meal, which comes with 4 pieces of chicken (2 thighs, 2 drums), 2 sides, 2 Texas toasts, and house sauces. For our sides, we chose the mac & cheese and fries. Honestly, the sides weren't great. As you can see in the photo, the mac & cheese was clumpy and mushy, and the fries were just okay. The chicken was definitely worth getting tho, super crispy, tender, and juicy. The seasoning was on point you don't even need extra sauce (we didn't even get any house sauces with ours). We also tried The Big G, which is their chicken sandwich with a side. It was so good. My final thoughts: Come here for the chicken and skip the sides. read more

Food: the classic chicken g burger with side is pure delicious awesomeness!!! The chicken is so juicy and outside is crunchy. I got the coleslaw, yummy but the dressing could be less. The Mac n cheese is also nice and creamy. Definitely fresh made to order. Service: friendly and pretty quick to receive the food! Ambiance: cozy and small. Wish they could turn on ac more during the hot weathers but still bearable. This is our go to place as the quality never disappoints! A safe option! read more

Got here right when they opened and the fryers probably had to reach temperature because the wait was about ~25-30 minutes and I was the second customer of the day. Got the friend's platter and the chicken pieces are nicely seasoned and very meaty. The chicken sandwich is a very large portion, however, the chicken to bun ratio is a little skewed as the chicken doesn't really fill the bun properly, some spots there's lots of chicken and other spots lots of bun. The portion sizes for the sides for the friend's platter are very small, but they are good. Cheese sauce on the Mac was a good consistency and flavor, just the ratio of sauce to pasta was a lot. The coleslaw was refreshing and didn't have too much mayo. I would've liked to have tried the sauces with the chicken, but unfortunately, it was forgotten and didn't make it into the bag. Maybe they're more on top of it later in the day. Service was nice and inside has a decent amount of seating ~25ish seats. The restrooms are outside while there is a prayer room inside. Overall, might come back at a later time to see if this place does better, the chicken is good but everything else was just alright. read more

I stopped by the store around 12:45AM on Friday night after a long day returning from San Francisco. I've visited this location many times late at night, and the staff have always been friendly, taking my order without issue -- I always make sure to show my appreciation with a generous tip. I've been a loyal customer since the San Francisco grand opening (Day1), so I felt it was important to bring tonight's experience to the owner's attention. The cashier, "Justin," who appeared to be of Asian descent, refused to take my order, claiming they had stopped accepting orders at 12:40AM so the team could leave by 1AM (the posted closing time). I only eat Halal food, and this was my only available option that late at night -- unfortunately, I couldn't find any other place open afterward. Since others were still coming in to pick up orders and several customers were seated inside until about 1:25AM, I decided to place an online order through UberEats. My order was supposed to be ready by 1:07AM, but it kept getting delayed, and around 1:17AM it was canceled -- apparently by Justin after calling UberEats support. It was clear he prioritized finding a way to cancel the order rather than simply preparing it. I also noticed him turning away other customers -- a couple and a single man -- before 1AM. This means nearly 45 minutes' worth of potential orders and revenue were lost. As a business owner myself, I know how damaging that can be, both financially and for a brand's reputation. I'm sharing this feedback not to be negative, but because I appreciate what your brand represents -- especially as I believe the ownership is Muslim -- and I think you deserve to know that an employee's attitude and actions may be hurting your business read more

On my search for the best halal fried i finally stumbled across Chicken Gs. My order- 2 Naughty Chicks meals with seasoned fries and Mac n cheese. One order of bone in fried chicken (#1) and one 5pc chicken strip. Along with 5 extra sauces. PROS The Naughty chicken sandwiches were great! Large. Hot and crispy. Definitely a great chicken sando. Chicken strips- great size served hot n fresh. Bone in fried chicken. My 9yr old son hated them. Its because they incorporate middle eastern seasoning. Definitely not kid friendly. CONS The fries- hot lamp fries served luke warm. Fries need to be served right out the fryer. It only takes 4 minutes to make. Mac n cheese, honestly great, creamy and noodles were cooked perfectly. Only problem it was served at room temp. Food needs to be served hot. Ne exceptions. Sauces. @50 cents a pc we received all of our sauce cups a 1/4 full? WHY??? Lack of customer appreciation. Give me what I paid for. Service. Definitely mismanagement. Why is the cashier stopping to take orders to prep the food? Shes leaving some food unattended to grab stuff from the back and thats how we are being served cold food. At $80 for our meal with consistent foot traffic. There should be no reason a customer has to wait close to 30 minutes for cold food. Absolutely unacceptable read more

Chicken G's - Sauce cups 1/4 full. - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

I would describe this place as wasted potential. The chicken, just the chicken, is well seasoned and crispy and delicious and generous. But then they put that delicious piece of chicken in between a cold bun with the texture of wonder bread....then they skimp out on the sauce making the burger dry. (If you ask for more sauce you have to pay for it). The Mac and cheese has initial good flavor but it's so soupy and after a while you get sick of it. The fries are not seasoned evenly and also unevenly fried. I think this used to be a really good place but I think they just stopped...caring. The guy working at the time was either in a bad mood or just didn't care at all. Barely spoke to us and just...grunted? It was so dirty everywhere. All the tables and chairs had not been wiped down (there was nobody inside), there was trash on the floor, the self service station was dirty and sticky with ketchup sprayed everywhere. The same hands that handled the register touched the food... A pretty disappointing experience overall. read more

Chicken G's - The G Meal with barely any sauce and the Mac and cheese "soup" in the back - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

My husband has been wanting to try this place for the longest time and we finally made our way here last week with the kids. We got a Friends Meal (4 thighs + 4 drums) with 3 toasts & 3 sides (mac + cheese / fries / coleslaw). The chicken is definitely VERY freshly fried and the coleslaw is one of the best I have had in a long time! The mac + cheese, though, is weirdly goopy... The person at the counter was initially very un-friendly/awkward and later another person took over and he was much more friendly and helpful. The parking lot is extremely small & there is a small restroom outside behind the back. Overall, their friend chicken is really good - will definitely want to go again to try the sandwiches next time! read more

The best fried chicken sandwich I've had in the Bay! The chicken is fresh, juicy, crispy, and piping hot when served. The bun is warm and buttery, the sauce is just right balanced with the lettuce, tomato, and cheese. I was not tired of the sandwich even after the first bite, and was hooked until the end of the sandwich which left me wanting more even though I was full! Definitely a large and filling sandwich. The side of mac and cheese was also delicious! Will Definitely come back again! The service was fast and people were friendly. There's only a few parking spots in the back but there are street parking in the front. There's a few tables inside to dine in and some outside as well. read more

Great chicken, crispy, moist and well cooked. Th e coleslaw was really good. The Mac and cheese side was just ok, the sauce was too thick and I disliked the breading thrown on the top. The only thing I didn't like were the thick, mayo-based sauces, both the house sauce and the garlic one. Ordered via DoorDash so I have comment on ambiance or service read more

My friend and I did a best friend chicken sandwiches of the Bay taste test, and we were happy to stumble upon Chicken G's in our neighborhood. When I lived nearby 2022/2023, this was one of our go-to spots. We happened upon their soft opening and were impressed by the quantity and quality. I don't know that I've seen a piece of fried chicken that size in any sandwich. The staff have been fast and friendly, and we enjoy sitting outside and people watching on El Camino. read more

Fantastic fried chicken individually made to order. Service is good and make sure to order in person as ordering online most items are about 30% higher priced even if there are no fees listed. Ambiance is decent, no better or worse than your typical Popeyes. I found their fries to be quite meh, so I usually only stick to the chicken. read more

Food was great. Chicken and fries were delicious. Just wish I didn't have to wait 35 min for a chicken sandwich :/

7/23/2024 Chicken G's 1414 W El Camino Real Mountain View, CA 94040 This strip of ECR from this place to Dave's in SV at SSR must be the sweet spot for fried chicken in the area, not necessarily a good thing. This place has a smallish parking lot and lucky on street parking. I got a Chick-licious sandwich with fries for dinner which took a little longer then I expected but they have a lot of take out business. My Chicken was huge with a moist center and crispy, spicy (not really hot) breading. The fries were okay and I saved about half of my meal to take home. It was okay and maybe repeatable but it didn't stand out among the many purveyors in this area. read more

Service is terrible. If you order in person expect to wait 30+ minutes. They over prioritize door dashers to the point where they will forget that you even put in an order since it's not on their tablet. Food is sloppy read more

BEST CRISPY FRIED CHICKEN BATTER I have ever had. It's also got a very unique flavored spice to it unlike any other fried chicken I've had. The coleslaw is also a perfect side dish. It also has a unique flavor to it unlike regular coleslaw but in a very good way. Parking can be difficult, it has like 3 spots behind the restaurant otherwise try street parking. I ordered at the counter and got the food very quick! There's actually a decent amount of seating inside and big table outside as well. Would definitely come back again! read more

Chicken G's - The Big G - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

After seeing this place pop up on my Yelp dozens of times, I finally got to try it for lunch today. I ordered the Big G with sides of fries and mac n cheese. The sandwich was PERFECTION. The portion size was massive and the chicken was juicy and fried to the perfect scraggly-ness. The garlic sauce really tied everything together. It kind of reminded me of a McChicken but way better. No complaints about the sandwich whatsoever. Wow. The fries were delicious too! One thing that I did not care for was the mac n cheese. It was oddly soupy/liquidy but the flavor was alright. I just could not with a soupy mac n cheese. Maybe there are people out there that would like this though. Will definitely be back to try the other sandwiches! read more

Thank you guys everything was perfect so delicious very friendly business definitely I want to come back see you soon

Convenient and opens super late, making it a great place to get a quick bite late at night! I've only tried one of their sandwiches and it is crazy, crazy spicy with the sheer amount of jalapeños they've wedged in. Still, there's the fresh kick to it so I can convince myself it's "healthier" and the price is also difficult to say no to. I've only picked up food from here, so I cannot share much about the service and ambiance inside. read more

Chicken G's - Naughty chick with fries as take out - Halal Near Me - Mountain View, California

Stopped by on a Thursday night as it was quite busy. The place is on a corner street which is pretty busy so it can be hard to find parking. Its super casual and appears to be a grab and go type of restaurant. They have seating but not much. I got the chicken tenders as well as a chicken sandwich. My god, the portions are huge. You definitely get a bang for your buck. Besides the sauce and the portion size, I didn't think the chicken here was all that great. They used plain burger buns and the fries were kind of soggy when we got the order fresh. read more

Super casual spot with several locations in the Bay Area (Fremont, SF, and Mountain View) serving halal fried chicken dishes. While the majority of their business is take out or to go, there are several tables for indoor dining. We opted for both the Naughty Chick (spicy fried chicken sandwich) and the Combo 1 (fried chicken with French fries). Both items are fried to order and the seasoning as well as the batter are fantastic. They serve all entrees with a mayo based dipping sauce that comes in regular and mildly spicy. All, this is a great place for late night, affordable and tasty eats. Limited indoor dining available. Credit cards accepted. read more

We got takeout Naughty Chick chicken sandwiches from here and chose fries as our side. We overall really enjoyed it! Pick up was pretty easy and the portions were large. The chicken seemed good quality and and there were a ton of jalapenos in it, maybe a few too many for me! By the end, my lips were definitely tingling. I definitely which some of the spice was in the chicken itself vs. the serrano peppers but it was still super tasty! Would definitely return if I was craving something like this again! read more
