I'm not much of a chicken guy , but Anna definitely convinced me to get the loaded mac medium , she said it was her favorite and it was great , perfect some would say ah read more

I've been a huge fan of Chikin Drip since they were a food truck! (: I'm happy to see that they have expanded into restaurants. They are underrated in my opinion and deserve more attention. I decided on the combo two with medium spice and it was perfect. The chicken was moist and seasoned well. They have always been super consistent and never left disappointed with the quality. I will come back on my cheat days! read more

Unseasoned hot chicken. The chicken needs to be seasoned well. Not just fried and sprinkled with spices. It was a very "meh" meal. All the hot chicken places have the same menus for the most part so the food should be well executed. This wasn't. The best things were the bun and my diet coke. It was edible but I won't return. read more

The coleslaw bowl was something. I saw on yelp this Nashville chicken eatery had a bowl with the chicken on top, that set it apart from other chicken places. Sure we've had chicken fries, chicken nachos, and even chicken on cauliflower. But coleslaw sounded different. The ordering experience was fine. Looks like there was training going on but hey everyone needs love customers to train on right? It did take a while to get the food. So we know it's fresh? Keeping an eye out that door dashers didn't take my bowl! When the food finally came they just put it on the counter, they didn't call out the numbers. So don't get lost I your phone or you may miss your window of hit chicken. Restaurant was moderately clean. Bathrooms needed attention. And the fixtures had this, shall we say, odd configuration. I was a little hesitant to wash the grease off my hands in that sink. Would I be back? Maybe, if I'm in that area. But probably wouldn't make a special trip here. The dry slaw wasn't worth going out of my way. read more

Everything was well seasoned and their sauce had a nice tanginess to it, but the chicken in the sandwich was ever so slightly on the drier side. I'm not greattt with spice so I got mild, but it wasn't giving any spice at all so I definitely could've leveled up. Nothing to write home about imo, but still a decent spot for spicy halal chicken. read more

This place was good but not much to be memorable. I am forsure biased because i like angry chicks better. This place has decent food but not much in terms of flavor. The spices shine through hut besides that, i couldnt really figure out why i would want to come back. That being said, i think people should give this place a try and let me know if i am being too harsh read more

First time I went to Chikin Drip tonight, and I was not let down. There was one big issue, but the food and service were so good, I'm still going to give them 5 stars. Upon entering, I was greeted by a lovely woman who gave me and my wife detailed info regarding the spice levels. The menu reminded me of a few other chicken places I frequent, but tasted better in more ways than one. The restaurant was very clean, and the members of staff were all great. As we ate, we were discussing the food, and wondering if the woman who first greeted us was the owner. She took our order while wearing a purse, and walked out right after, so we assumed she was in a position of authority. About 5 minutes after she left, the most obnoxious song began playing on the speakers at full volume. We could no longer hear each other speak. We assumed the employees were enjoying some music since the owner/manager is gone now. I have nothing against that, they have a tough job and 1 song is no big deal. Then another obnoxious song, followed by another, and another. By the time they played the 5th obnoxious song in the same genre at full volume, we decided to leave. All I can say is that whoever created that playlist may need to explore some other genres of music. Every song sounded like somebody banging on a trash can while under the influence of bath salts or suffering from withdrawals of bath salts. I'm still giving the restaurant 5 stars, but I want the owner to know what's going on behind their back. It seems like the employees do what they want once they're left alone. That's a recipe for disaster and can affect other aspects of your business. It shouldn't be overlooked that they all gave great service, irregardless of the abuse they put me and my wife through with their music. read more

Combos don't come with a drink, that costs extra. If you want more than one small cup of sauce, that costs extra too. You end up feeling like they're nickel and dime-ing you left and right. Let's be honest, there are a lot of hot chicken places. Many options to choose from. This spot ranks so where in upper part of the mid tier. It's not top tier for sure. Service is ok, nothing specific to complain about. The restaurant is clean and there is a good amount of seating. Portions are pretty inconsistent. It's not uncommon for a hot chicken place to toss in an extra piece if the pieces are small. This place seems to operate on some other logic. I've eaten here three times, and twice the portions have been good, with two pieces of chicken on the sandwich. The other time I got one piece, and it was smaller than the pieces when I got two. Who decided this was ok? Instead of being pleasantly surprised to receive a little more than I expected, I felt ripped off. Half the sandwich had no chicken on it. read more

I have never been to this place before. I just thought I was going be another chicken fast food trying to be like the next.. I will say it's not your average chicken nugget/strip. There was sample parking. The place is big and a lot of seating in the dining room. There's some fun art on the wall. They had a really fun sports car out front with their logo on it. We placed an order and the food was made fairly quickly. My son ordered the combo with a sandwich and a tender medium spice with extra sauce and fries. I wanted to taste it so I ordered a chicken tender with mild spice. My son Mukbang it. The chicken tenders are huge. Both meals the seasoning was red was hardly any more spicy than mine. If he likes spice I'd say go more than medium for sure. I think I'll try hot next time to get a little kick. The french fries were yummy and crunchy and seasoned. My side order of the chicken tender came on a piece of like Texas toast or something like that was delicious. It's a little bit like raising Cane's. However- I'd say it's a little bit better than raising Cane's because it has less batter and more spice. If that's your thing then you'll like this place. We will go back to this place. It was good. read more

Located by San Jose Airport, parking is plentiful and easy to find. Seating is also very abundant. The noise level is quiet-average. Combo #4 comes with 2 sliders and fries. Off the bat the fries were so delicious. They were super crispy and flavorful. The sliders were also so yummy too. The buns were crispy without being too dry. The chicken was tender. Tap to pay is accepted. Overall, Chikin Drip is a delicious chicken place. The fries are second to none and service is quick. read more

Yum! If you're craving a hot chicken sandwich, this is a great place. The cashier described the medium spice to be similar to hot cheetos but I think it's a bit spicier. I can eat really spicy and I think medium was the perfect level for me if I don't want to sweat. Their spice also has a bit of sweetness to it which really enhanced the flavor. Also if you add cheese to your sandwich, they don't melt it. There's lots of tables and parking available. Def somewhere I'd come back to. read more

Fries delicious. Had the chicken strips medium and my girl friend the chicken strips mild, both had zero heat. But... the seasoning was blah, maybe over seasoned or the season is not good, either way not much flavor. The second chicken strip we both took the breading off and ate the bare chicken in the sauce, much better. The strawberry watermelon drink was delicious also! read more

The medium spicy is very delicious. They added dry spice to the fries which I didn't like as much. I was looking forward to eating my fries with ketchup but instead the spicy fries went well with the side sauce. Just a preference though. The sauce was really great I enjoyed pouring it over my chicken. The service was fast, plenty of seating and very clean inside. read more

Great cashier! Friendly, and saved me from ordering a too-spicy sandwich by giving me a little of the seasoning on a fry. Chicken was a tad dry and just not...delicious. I'd say dave's hot chicken has the better chicken sandwich, but chikin drip's got better fries and sauce. Did not like that the front door was zip tied open -- it was cold out, so the dining room was freezing. Very clean, tho! I'd come here again. read more

Plenty of parking in this plaza. Nicely air conditioned inside, except for the bathrooms. Service took a little long to order and to receive food despite the restaurant being almost empty. Both the mild and hot chicken seemed spicier than what I am used to. Flavor was okay, but a little too salty to enjoy. Chicken itself was juicy. Fries were decent. The secret sauce tasted too much of mayo. read more

One of the best chicken sandwiches ive ever had. Way better than Chic fil A and Dave'.

I came here on a Friday night, and it was a little busy. The interior was nice and clean, and the bathroom was well-kept. I ordered the Salad Bowl with medium spicy chicken, pickles, and special sauce. I liked everything about this bowl, except the coleslaw was too dry. The chicken was seasoned well and very crispy. I ordered fries on the side, and it was delicious. It's crispy and soft on the inside, and it's good to pair it with the secret sauce. Overall, I like it and will try the sandwich next time and lots of parking space. read more

To preface, I got take out (DoorDash). It was pretty good tbh, but I felt the chicken was less juicy than other places like Dave's or Angry Chicks. By no means was it dry, but it didn't have that juiciness I was looking for. Also, it didn't come with hot honey and there just wasn't any sauce on my combo when I ordered. Maybe I have to ask next time? I don't usually get chikin drip but wanted to try it. These factors combined brings it down for me. read more

I was disappointed by the sauce pricing. When I buy a meal, the sauce costs 50 cents, but when I buy the same sauce separately, they charge $1.50 even though the menu says the sauce is 50 cents. The pricing feels misleading and should be explained more clearly to customers. read more

I got the Combo #4 which came with 2 sliders and fries. Additional sauces cost extra. I thought the chicken was on the stringy side and a little overseasoned and too salty. Fries were pretty good though. I feel like the sauce really helps to get through the sliders. Prices were pretty reasonable for the portion size. Good amount of seating inside and outside. read more

The chicken was pretty good, also spice levels are to be respected here. I was going to order "hot", but was warned this came with ghost peppers. Medium (the next level down) hit the spot! Fries are very average, you could get worse from In and Out (next door), but don't come close to Five Guys fries. I ordered to eat in and waited about 10mins for my food, no biggie. Might come back again when in the area. UPDATE: Since eating the food my stomach has experienced some pretty bad indigestion, I'm unlikely to return. read more

This is the worst chicken sandwich place that I ever had. I ordered the salad bowl and Combo #4. Here is what we got: 1. Salad bowl, the menu said that it has coleslaw. I got a bowl of dry shredded cabbage with a little bit of their sauce on top with one piece of tender. What is coleslaw without shredded cabbage without vinaigrette or mayonnaise dressing? 2. Combo #4, chicken is over cooked, cheese isn't melted, basically flapped on the cold chicken, the buns aren't even toasted. Fries are so cold and not fresh at all. It went from a good quality food truck to a shitty quality store. Everything is cold. So disappointed! It was a big mistake to come here instead of Angry chickz. Even DoorDash, when the food from angry chickz gets home, it's still hot. read more

2 tender chicken combo with fries $14.99 Chicken was juicy and fries were crispy. Heard from a friend NOT TO ORDER HOT SPICE as it gave them a tummy ache at the end of the night. So, I ordered MEDIUM spice level. I recommend it. It was delicious and well coated better than Dave's hot. Cole slaw on the sandwich was skimpy and dry. Would ask for extra next time. Ordered sauce on side as I didn't want it drenched in sauce. Soda machine was nothing special. Was expecting to other choices like lemonade or even other beverages to purchase. Plenty of seating inside & plenty of parking outside. read more

More expensive than other fried chicken places in the area but you can chose your spice level. I went with spice level 2 and it was really good. I think even level 3 would have been ok not too crazy spicy. I didn't like that the combo says it comes with coleslaw that was not true, there was like 2 tiny pieces of cabbage under my pickles, I don't think that counts as a side of "coleslaw." The crinkle fries were good. The combo only comes with 2 tenders and the no spice chicken wasn't tasty. read more

Chikin Drip feels like Dave's Hot Chicken 2.0--same menu style, taste, and even similar decor. However, they do offer a few extras that set them apart, like mac & cheese, loaded fries, and a chicken salad bowl (which I don't think Dave's has). I tried the loaded fries and absolutely loved them! The portion was huge--I couldn't even finish it. Definitely worth checking out if you're a fan of hot chicken! read more

A quick place to grab fried chicken! We came for dinner on a Wednesday around 7pm and there was barely anyone there. We got the Combo #1 with 1 slider and the loaded fries with a spicy level of medium. I should've gotten a spicier level. I also wish that the tender fit more of the buns; it was like one long piece and empty areas of the bread so I had to breakup the chicken into separate pieces to fit the bun. The sauce was ok but I personally like Raising Cane's sauce more. The chicken itself was crispy but the flavor was ok. The fries were decent though: lightly seasoned and more potato-to-crispiness ratio. Overall, an ok chicken place. read more

I liked it. The spice was good and I liked how it was fried. I don't think they use a thick breading or maybe none at all and it is crispy, which I like. They use a dry spice mix rather than a lot of sauce which I also like. A bit pricy for fast food read more

I love chicken drip it's one of my favorite chicken places and their mac & cheese is so good. The food is amazing. I love it but there's one problem when I do delivery they go really cheap on the sauces and I have a b big bowl of chicken and mac & cheese and other stuff and I pay $.89 for a sauce and usually they'll give you like two or three sauces with your meal and then if you want more you pay for extra I think it's very unprofessional and wrong for businesses to not give you any sauces with the meal when you're spending that much money and forgetting silverware or straws I think that should be included no matter what you shouldn't forget that if you're ordering to go. I feel like when food from restaurants everywhere not just here when it's food for delivery to go. They don't really put much effort into the sides or food or accessories for the food as if you were eating there not just here. A lot of restaurants need to work on that, but this still is my favorite place. read more

The chicken was oddly sweet. Also, the amount of the spice put on the chicken was way too much. When you bit into the chicken the powder dusted the roof of your mouth and made a paste as you chew. It was not the most pleasant experience. They were busy as hell when we arrived and the food took over 20 minutes to get, no biggie. The cashier was extremely patient and friendly, service only thing going for this place. Would not recommend. read more
