A REPLACEMENT FOR KFC AND DAVE'S HOT CHICKEN? This location used to be KFC. Several months ago I was intrigued when I saw a sign that a new chicken place will be opening at this location. I've eaten at Chikin Drip three times. The first time I came here I ordered the Combo #3, which is two tenders. I'm not into spicy food except for two kinds of food - Thai and fried chicken. For the spicy level I like to ease my way, so I ordered one tender mild and one tender medium. My impression is the chicken isn't moist but isn't it dry either. The fries were a disappointment as despite the crinkly appearance they were soggy. The second time I came here I ordered Combo #2, which is one tender and one slider. For the spice level I ordered the tender medium and the slider hot. The hot slider had some kick as I was sweating a little. The third time I came here was Monday night after USA lost to Belgium in the Round of 16. I came from San Pedro Market Square in San Jose for the World Cup watch party. At the last minute I came to Chikin Drip. I ordered Combo #3, but this time I ordered both tenders extra hot. The cashier also recommended a ranch sauce with a new recipe. He decided to give the ranch sauce on the house. Ranch sauce can sometimes taste tarty, but the ranch sauce at Chikin Drip was smooth. One thing I noticed was the fries this time were crispy. The extra hot was flavorful but not too hot that it wasn't edible. After eating here three times what is my verdict? The meat isn't as moist as I like it. I like the spices on the tenders and sliders. The breading is soggy and not crispy. Overall Chikin Drip is ok. read more

The cashier named Jackson was super friendly and knowledgeable about the food he is selling. Every time we come in, he's always smiling and has the best energy! The first visit we had here, Jackson recommended the loaded Mac & cheese so My husband got the loaded mac n cheese & I got a slider, fries and Cole slaw. My husband said the Mac n cheese was perfectly cheesy, the chicken still crispy and the fries at the bottom was a perfect bed to lay the Mac n cheese on. I got the slider meal, coke with one chicken slider, slaw, fries and the special sauce. The one major critique I have would be that the chicken "patty" is more of an oversized chicken tender and doesn't really fit in the bun, 20% of the sandwich was mostly bread I had to bread off so I would have a mouthful of only bread. I would recommend they switch to a full patty or change the bread they have it. But other than that, the flavor was delicious. The chicken is super crispy, juicy and flavorful! Not as spicy as I thought but very very yummy! The fries come with a special sauce and it compliments the seasonings so well on the fries! Another critique I do have though, is everyone we go in there, it's extremely hot. So if it's an extremely hot day, I would recommend using their outdoor seating. The restaurant itself is a great hangout spot but they need AC for people to really enjoy the inside. Overall, 4/5 stars. If they change the bun or chicken patty & put on the AC, I'd give 5/5 as my experience would be perfect at that point. Thank you to all the staff for making our meals and experience enjoyable, and we will definitely be back! read more

Another chicken sandwich spot, near Dave's so had to try it and compare. Service was quite slow for drive through, despite there were no customers. Not sure how it will handle during lunch hour or busy time. 3.3/5 - Chicken sandwich medium combo 1 - Sadly this was disappointing. Bread was a bit too soft and doughy. The chicken itself was also dry and not breaded enough to be crispy compared to other joints like hotboys or Dave's. Fries were good though crispy and seasoned nicely. The sauce tastes like raising cane sauce in a good way peppery and tangy. 3.5/5 - Loaded Mac and cheese - surprised about fries being in the Mac and cheese. Just tastes like basic Mac and cheese with some tender sliced up and some fries in it. Nothing special wished they use diff cheeses and it tastes straight out of the box. Not a terrible place in general, just there are better spots around the corner and was slightly disappointed that this doesn't give any competition to even Dave's read more

Chicken sandwich contenders got that drip interior that nobody seems to use as most get their chicken on the fly! Chikin Drip took over the longtime former tenant, KFC, and spiced up the place with some flare in their flooring and lighting. They simplified the counter/register to optimize online order pick ups and kept their menu simple - chicken sandwich or tenders; just decide how many and if they go with fries. We've passed by this place many times and have frequented the strip mall plenty for the other eateries and shops around here, but it took a special deal to get us through the door. Parking was easy and we were almost thwarted to enter seeing a food truck outside with a different name (Fire Bunz). Given that we made an online order, we figured the pickup would be inside the building. As we stepped foot through the double doors, we were met with neon lights glowing against a flamboyantly painted floor and a nearly barren register/counter with a relatively small monitor against the empty wall listing their menu items. There were about two staff members seen working and they were friendly and quick to help. We decided on getting their double slider with fries combo in addition to a couple of tenders. Each chicken item can be smothered in your choice of heat: No spice, Mild, Medium, Hot, X-tra Hot, and Holy Chick. For kids and the spice sensitive, get no spice. I also tried the medium and it was pretty hot so I can only imagine the level of hurt for anything higher. The chicken sliders are decent in size and come with a soft bun, some coleslaw, and sauce. To mitigate the bread from getting soggy, we opted for the sides to be left off separately, The fries were good although nothing too special about them aside from being consistently crispy. The tenders were served on a slice of white bread and like the sliders, were hefty to consume. The double slider combo was definitely big enough for two to share unless you're starving. The price seemed a bit high but given the size and quantity of the sliders, I'd say in today's economy, it was only just a tad more expensive than what I'd consider fair. Overall, Chikin Drip is a solid choice for chicken sandwiches and tenders but with similar shops opening all around, it's going to be tough to stay relevant and competitive. The food truck is a nice option for businesses or late night snackers while the storefront could use some incentives to drive more foot traffic despite online orders seemingly doing well. Catering could be an option, however, this food is best served fresh and crispy. It's no wonder why their online sales are likely a success as for our online order, our items were packaged well and maintained their crisp through the ride home. Definitely worth a visit or an online delivery next time you're craving a good cluck! read more

Husband wanted to try this place. I wasn't to excited cuz I just didn't want to eat another sandwich, however, I actually really enjoyed it. The chicken is moist and flavorful. We ordered combo #2 - $14.99 for the kids. And combo #4 -$17.99 for husband and I. We also added a loaded Mac for $14.99. Each order comes with fries. We upgraded one of the fry order. It was plentiful for a family of 4. There was no wait time for us. You order in the counter and you pick up your order in the counter as well. The establishment is clean and I like the decor as well. They also have a drive-tru if you don't want to eat inside. It only got 4 stars because we had to send 1 of our fries back due to it not being upgraded to what we ordered. They fixed it right away. If we are in the area, we would not mind coming back here again. The kids liked it so that is a plus. read more

Just tried Chikin Crip and I'm honestly so impressed The vibe here is everything, great music, super clean, and just an overall really good energy. My husband and I live right around the block, so we finally decided to come check it out after hearing so many good things from friends and coworkers. I also really appreciate how simple the menu is, it makes ordering so easy. And I have to shout out Blanca, she was AMAZING. So kind, helpful, and made the whole experience even better. We'll definitely be coming back! read more

I love chicken sandwiches, and since I was craving one, my friends and I decided to go to Chikin Drip. We came about 9 pm on a Friday. Parking was easy, and the inside was spacious. The staff was nice, but the service was slow. It took them more than 30 minutes to get our orders ready; they were not too busy that evening. I ordered Combo #2 (one sandwich, one tender, and fries), medium spice. The food wasn't hot anymore when we got it, so it tasted okay. The meat was tender but a bit dry. I liked their secret sauce, though, as it adds flavor to the chicken. I will probably go back again to try their other menu items, but only if I am in the area. read more

Some may say, "why another halal chicken shop?" To that I say "WHY NOT?!" Visited the drive-thru on a Thursday night and they weren't too busy but the wait for our food seemed pretty long. It may have been because we were really hungry, but the wait was worth it and the staff was apologetic. I got the #2 with medium spice. It had a hot Cheetos type heat which was perfect for me. As you can tell from the photo, the first bite was a good one and made me realize how much I needed to write a review. They have a pretty solid menu and are a step above that other hot chicken spot in Union City. read more

Chikin Drip - Drip #2 - Chicken Shop Near Me - Union City, California

My kids have been wanting to try this place so we made the drive over to check it out. Spacious dining area and employees are friendly. Menu was easy to navigate. We ordered the one slider one tender meal. Added a fountain drink and Mac and cheese. Fries were fresh and seasoned. Mac and cheese was creamy. Chicken was good but spice level was a lot hotter than what we ordered. So if we come back we may go one level lower. Chicken was tender and moist. Not as crispy as I hoped but it was good. Overall good meal and would visit again. read more

Chikin Drip opened 4 months ago where KFC once was. Interior renovated with new paint, murals, signs. Even a wall where patrons can autograph. Hip hop type music in background. Spacious inside with many tables. Drive thru and seating outside too. Lots of parking all around. Ordered at counter where I was serviced quickly & courteously. Food came within 10 minutes. Few patrons came and went during noon. Offerings (halal): chicken combos, loaded fries, salad bowl, loaded Mac, sides. Bites: Combo # 3, medium spicy (13.99) -crinkle cut fries & chicken tenders had a darkish tint, suggestive of overcooking, twice friedness. Outer texture had a hard crunch. -fries semi-dry innards, not flavorful. 2 Tenders moist but dry. 2 dipping sauces added some flava. Spiciness didn't register till hours later via gas & .... Coleslaw lack definition, bland. Overnight? Pickles crunchy, tart. Texas toast didn't disappoint. 3.75 stars: definitely an off day. Quality: off day. Q not up to par. Quantity: reasonable. Doubtful repeat. read more

"Dont judge the book by its cover" is what I was reminded of when I ate here. Hubby wanted to try it... so I yelped it. Lol I am really not a fun of chicken sandwich and most of the pictures I saw were not appetizing- the ones that looked dark and dry. We did still go to satisfy his craving. I ordered the non-spicy and he ordered the medium one. When our order came, I realized the dark color indicates how spicy it is and not how dry and burned the chicken were. Lol The chicken tenders were tender and juicy. And the french fries were delicious. Will go back but might just order the chicken itself and not the whole sandwich. Interior was spacious and decor was vibrant. read more

Delicious fries and juicy chicken!! We drove around for a late night dinner and decided to try this spot with drive through order. Honestly, we had low expectation but were pleasantly surprised by the quality. Price is definitely pricier than other fast food places, but the chicken is not dry and the fries are crispy + lightly seasoned with spice. Very good! We tried the hot level spice, which is quite a slow burn in a good way. But I think for the sake of my stomach, I'll try mild or medium spice next time lol. read more

Will be coming back to try the Xtra Hot and Holy Chick. Decided to start at HOT which already contains ghost pepper. I got the hot tender and I got my wife the medium sandwich. She said that the medium wasn't that spicy (she can handle spicy tho). And for me the hot was a decent heat level and very enjoyable with some honey. I personally wouldn't get the mad again though. Didn't care for the flavor or the sauce texture. Just generic tasting. Looking forward to coming back and trying the Xtra Hot. read more

This place hit the spot! I'd say very very similar to Dave's in terms of ambiance, menu, presentation, interior design, etc. Service was really fast and professional. 100% halal menu, which is great for those with dietary restrictions. I ordered the Combl #3, which was the two tenders with fries. Drink is not a part of the combo, which I find odd. I got medium and hot for the tenders. The hot was HOT. I can eat really spicy, and it was tough to enjoy so I would definitely recommend medium or below. The taste was awesome though, and I would much rather this place than Dave's, so I'll be back again soon. read more

I came here after being in the area. I wanted to try hella chicken spots. The place used to be a KFC, but it's cleaned up nice. I ended up getting tenders, fries, and mac and cheese. The sauce was good and the seasoning was good, not too salty. I think the stand out is the mac, the loaded mac will definitely be the go to next time. The service was good, they were quick, greeted me, and in general were personable. read more

Gooey mac n cheese on the loaded mac-- delicious! Has a kick, but flavorful. Workers were also very friendly. Would come back!

The drive thru line was super fast, and damn that food is fresh! Service is amazing. Only complaint is not coming sooner. Decided to go for combo #1 to keep it simple for my first time. I went with medium spice and was pleasantly surprised that I found myself reaching for my drink and coughing on that spice! Okaaaay I see yall! I will say I'm a weenie and would probably go for mild next time to see the difference. The chicken was incredibly juicy and so crispy and flavorful!! The fries are gorgeous! The spice they put on them makes them so beautiful and they give a real nice portion too! A little side cup of sauce hit so well to round it all together. I was also surprised drink wasn't included for the price but not a big deal. My only down was the side of Mac n cheese. She's pretty tiny and it wasn't as full body flavored as the sandwhich or fries. I would probably try the loaded Mac n cheese next time and maybe the flavor would be a little stronger there. Overall would 100% come back and the hours are amazing I would even come after a concert or a late night grub! read more

First time trying Chickin Drip, and overall it was a good experience. The cashier was friendly and ordering was quick and easy. I ordered the #2 combo with a drink and paid $19.91. The fries were excellent -- crispy, flavorful, and even my son enjoyed them when I brought some home! The chicken was well-seasoned and not too salty, which I liked, though it was a little overcooked. The slider bread got soggy from the slaw, so next time I'll ask for it on the side. If and when I come back, it'll definitely be for the loaded fries -- yes, I'll come back for the fries and I think it's worth it. read more

This location has opened in Union City, which is the closest so far from my home. I went to the one in San Jose close to the airport and haven't been there for a while. When I arrived, they have its drive thru, but it's closed until next week. Honestly, I support this because it brings less traffic inside the lobby, but even without it, there wasn't gonna be many people until I arrived during peak hours. This is also my first time seeing a drive thru in this kinda restaurant. Perhaps, I should order through that next time I come by. Just like other Nashville-style chicken restaurant I believe, they have like really aesthetic and colorful designs inside the restaurant. If you go to restaurants like this, you'll know what I'm talking about. Really brings the vibes of Bay Area due to its multiculturalism. I like the food here since portion size is right and that I wasn't too full after finishing the combo (maybe because I didn't get 2 sliders). I usually like slider and tender since it's different of how the chicken is eaten and tasted. Usually get mild (not "no spice" due to lack of taste and medium or spicier because I can't tolerate that kinda spice). read more

I'm going to be straight to the point, this chicken sandwich shop is where's at. Huge parking lot and plenty of seating inside. 1. Opens late past midnight. We came at around 10 and it's still very lively. 2. Excellent service and food came out fast. The workers were all very friendly and food came out within 10 minutes even though it was pretty busy at the time we came. 3. The actual sandwich is delicious. The chicken is very tendered, well seasoned, and well cooked. 4. The price is very fair compared to their competitors. Lower price and higher quality. read more

Good food, good portions, quick service, open late and really friendly workers! Will definitely be back :)

Chicken drips been one of my go tos when it comes to Halal chicken. The inside of the building is stunning and well lit, they also have really nice outside seating with nice lights at night time. Not to mention the staff is nothing but kind, friendly, helpful and amazing. Three staff members that were very notable were G, Blanca, and Jackson. Blanca always has a smile on her face and always makes the visits enjoyable. She always makes sure my friends and I have everything before we leave and one thing that's very notable is the fact that she doesn't treat anyone differently. She gives that same courtesy to every customer and that's rare in food service. Jackson is really chill and helpful, he's very professional but also has a side to him that makes him feel like a homeboy. He's always been kind and respectful to everyone, and always has patience with everyone. Lastly, I remember meeting G since the establishment opened, from day one he's been nothing but nice and kind and honestly had so much patience with me when I didn't know what I wanted. G to me is someone who has immense respect for everyone and doesn't hesitate to make sure it's known. I would 100% recommend chicken drip to all my friends and family. read more

Amazing food at an amazing price. Ive had almost the whole menu, and cant recommend enough the loaded mac. Its not extremely spicy, but i would play it safe with a mild or medium before jumping up the spice. The signature sauce is amazing, douse that chicken! read more

Ordered for pickup through Uber Eats gave them 25 mins to prepare order and pickup. When I arrived I sat in the drive through for another 10 minutes and I was told to pull around the front where I sat for another 15 minutes. Overall prep time 45-50 mins for a 4 sandwich 2 Mac order. Noticed the prices in store are less than Uber Eats so keep that in mind when ordering the in store price will be less. Now to get to the actual food. Chicken Sando's were ordered mild and Mac was ordered medium. Chicken sando's and fries were pretty good. The Mac and cheese was a little bland but not terrible. Medium was considerably spicier. read more

Tried them for the first time today. It was empty and I got worried wondering why. The young lady at the register was very nice and helpful with suggestions. We ate there and was pleasantly pleased. The food was ready quick maybe because we were the only ones there. I would for sure go back again! read more

I had a sudden craving for fried chicken sandwich and thought I'll try a new place. I walked in around 11:30am on a week day and I was the only customer. I ordered #1 for to go. After I placed my order, the food was ready within minutes. In terms of flavor, I thought the food was good but it wasn't memorable. The slaw that was inside the sandwich and the sauce that was placed on the side, lacked tartness.

Tried the new Chikin Drip location in Union City after hearing good things about their San Jose spot, and it didn't disappoint. The chicken sandwiches are a solid size, juicy, and packed with great seasoning. They offer five spice levels -- we went up to level 4, and it definitely brings the heat. My niece and I agreed we'll come back for round two and brave level 5 once our tongues recover. The restaurant is clean and well-kept, and the staff have a great attitude -- friendly, helpful, and quick with service. The menu is simple and limited, but that's part of the charm. They focus on doing a few things really well -- and it shows in the quality and flavor of the food. Overall, great flavor, solid customer service, and a fun spot for anyone who loves bold, crispy chicken sandwiches. read more
