Daybird is one of my favorite spots to get a fried chicken sandwich because of the spices they use in the batter. The chicken breast is not only perfectly crunchy and seasoned but it is way bigger than the bun. I joke saying that the bun is a handle for the chicken breast. The spices go great with the sweet Asian slaw. The fries are also very good- perfect crisp. The spot is small. There is only a counter on the wall to eat. Parking is available in the lot as well as their underground parking structure. Service is great. The guys behind the counter were very chill and friendly. read more

I suppose I'll be hunting for other fish sandwiches in LA. Second time here, 0 for 2 on fish. Today we stopped by around 12:30 (they open at noon)... aaaand they're closed? Open on Google, open on Yelp, no notice on any of these platforms or Instagram unless all they did was post a now-expired story which isn't very helpful. There's some vague post saying something to the effect of: great news, they aren't closing and are opening a new location! Is this instead of the Silver Lake one? In addition to? It takes literally less than a minute for the business owner to change Google business hours to CLOSED--I do this for my workplace--which is significantly less than what potential customers spend driving here. Another guy and his family might've come up from Riverside to a closed door. Hopefully they actually live here and weren't in LA just for this! read more

Came to Daybird for lunch on Saturday to try their fish sandwich after seeing it all over TikTok for forever now. As a fan of the filet o fish, I was excited to try an elevated fish sandwich of similar design. The restaurant is a hot chicken place, but the fish sandwich remains on the menu even though it doesn't appear on the website or physical wall menu. The parking situation was a breeze, with loads of underground parking under the building. This was already a huge relief considering the typical experience when dining in LA. The restaurant was close to empty. I opted for the sandwich without caviar ($20), the addition of which would have added $60 to the price. I also got an order of fries. The sandwich was made right away and fried fresh. The fish stood out as incredibly large for a sandwich, and had a thick and very crispy batter. I wasn't aware that their fish can come seasoned like how they do their chicken, and the cashier recommended me mild which is what I did. The flavor of the mild seasoning was light but added a satisfying heat. The crunch was very good on the fish, and the tartar sauce was very flavorful and clearly high quality and made in-house. I will say that considering the size of the fish, the cheese gets somewhat lost flavor wise. The only other complaint I had was that the fish had a slightly fishy aroma even while frying, and the taste came through in the sandwich as well. It wasn't enough to ruin the taste or the texture much, but I'm sure the fish I had that day wasn't the most fresh. I could actually see how the caviar might fit into the sandwich flavor-wise, but for $60 I think it's definitely nowhere near necessary. If you like fish sandwiches, I'd say give it a shot. I thought it was worth the price/visit. read more

Daybird - Hot Fish Sando - Chicken Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My brother and I came here before the Dodger game. I love friend chicken and I love me a good sandwich. No lie- this is THE BEST fried chicken sandwich and fried cod sandwich I've ever had. My brother has been here before- he got the fried chicken sandwich with medium heat. It was the perfect heat for someone who likes spice. The pickles and potato salad were a delicious relief to the heat. I ordered the mild spiced cod sandwich. It was a good sense of heat- I'm glad I didn't go spicier. The service was friendly and quick. You order at the counter. The chicken and fish were FRIED TO PERFECTION. There's no seating or bathroom inside but you can stand and eat at the counter. I live in San Clemente but this will be my go to spot for when I'm headed to LA for a game. read more

I have been seeing Daybird on Tiktok for years and finally got the chance to try it. Ordered it on UberEATS and it came super quick. Went with the Hot Chicken Sandwich, Fish Sandwich, and some fries. The Hot Chicken Sandwich was delicious. It had an asian twist with what tasted like Sichuan peppers which makes it standout from other places that sell hot chicken. The Fish sandwich was probably the best i've ever had. It's basically a gourmet version of a Filet O Fish in the best way possible. Definitely recommend Daybird! read more

Funny enough, we were informed of this place by my vegetarian boss, who was upselling it to our C-Suite, who normally eat healthier, but it was Friday, so they took the recommendation. We ordered via DoorDash, which for an order for one person, I do not recommend; even w/ a corp account, this place wasn't part of DashPass and the overall fees add up; thusly, I would only order via DoorDash if you're doing it for multiple people and the fee prices can be negated. However, if you live/work locally, I'd suggest it as I'd eat here again. It's a higher quality fast service, but served w class and quality. It's nothing too different from other marketplace offerings, but it has a good flavor unto itself. The chicken (nor the packaging) was even remotely greasy, and it was fresh and flavorful (you do get your choice of heat level), but not very moist. The fries were nice and crunchy, but basic. The food was packaged and packed with care and it did travel well. read more

This place is tiny and easy to miss, as there is only a chicken symbol on the billboard. It feels more like a fast-food joint because there are fewer than four seats, and most customers order to-go. In my opinion, they have the best Sichuan chicken sandwich; however, it is on the pricier side at $16 for the sandwich alone, without fries. I also tried the hot cod sandwich for $20, and the fish was fresh and packed with flavor, though I still prefer the chicken sandwich. The chicken is moist and juicy and the szechuan seasoning is flavorful. I wish they were open longer, as their hours are limited to 11 a.m.-4 p.m., and they are also closed on Tuesdays. If they extended their hours and lowered the price slightly, I would probably get this sandwich weekly. The seasoning in the chicken batter is addictive--I still crave it from time to time. read more

One of my favorite chicken sandwich places. The Szechuan style fried chicken is juicy and tender and flavorful with the sauce and the buns, veggies and all are excellent. It has a nice kick to it depending on the spice level you try. There's also a caviar addon that my friends enjoyed last time. The fries are also very good. The staff is nice and chill. Seating is a bit limited with standing room to eat. read more

We came all the way to LA to have the sandwiches from Daybird. It was delicious. Definitely. Must try the chicken sando. And we also got the fish sandwiches. The prices are on the high side and parking is tight. Especially when it's busy. It's tough to get in and out of the parking lot. It's a place where you buy to go rather than stay and eat. There's no where to really sit due to the limited space. If it isn't busy then you can stand at the counter area to eat for a bit. It is delicious though. Must try. If we're in the area we'll be back for the sandwiches again read more

My friend and I came here before an event to grab a meal. First thing to note, parking lot is a little bit small but there's a downstairs lot that's kind of hidden. Second thing to note, there's barely any seating in here, but there are counters if you don't mind standing with your food. Third thing to note, this place serves extremely super spicy chicken. They offer no spice, mild, hot, extra hot. We ordered mild and it made us cry; way too spicy. Yes, it was delicious, but it was nearly inedible. Their sauces were good. Fries were decent. Employees not the friendliest. read more

So good. I'm always down for fried chicken. We came here instead of a *popular competitor* because the wait there was crazy long. The parking lot here is small, but we found a spot easily right in front of the door. Minutes later, we already ordered. Our food came out in about 10 minutes and it was piping hot. The interior is simple and there is nowhere to sit, it's more of a to-go spot. There's a counter where you can stand in front of to enjoy your meal. My boyfriend ordered the szechuan chicken sandwich and I just ordered tenders because I wasn't that hungry. Both were nicely seasoned and so tender. I highly recommend this spot to all fried chicken lovers! read more

Daybird - Szechuan Chicken Sando and Hot Cod Sando - Chicken Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I saw an Instagram reel claiming this place had the best chicken sandwiches in LA, so I had to try it for myself. The shop is small -- more of a grab-and-go type spot -- but it was clean and organized, with a steady flow of customers picking up food. Service was good and efficient. Nothing particularly notable, but everything ran smoothly, and my order came out pretty quickly. I ordered the Szechuan Hot Chicken Sando and a Hong Kong milk tea. The sandwich was honestly amazing -- crispy, flavorful, and perfectly balanced with just the right amount of heat. Definitely one of the better chicken sandwiches I've had in the area. The milk tea, on the other hand, was pretty standard and not particularly memorable, but it paired well with the food. Overall, I'd definitely come back to try more items on the menu. It's a little pricey, but for the quality and taste, I'd say it's worth it if you're in the mood for a flavorful, spicy chicken sandwich that lives up to the hype. read more

I kept seeing Daybird go viral for their fish sandwich and finally gave in... now I'm a grown 30-year-old dad going out of my way just to grab one whenever I can. That should tell you something. The only time I used to eat fish sandwiches was when I was basically forced to during Lent on Fridays -- it was never something I actually wanted. Daybird completely changed that. This isn't just a good fish sandwich... this is one of the best sandwiches, period. The fish is perfectly crispy with real heat, and that yuzu sauce brings this bright citrus tang that balances everything so well. It cuts through the spice in the best way. Then the potato bun just cradles the whole sandwich perfectly -- soft but holds up, no soggy mess. And the fries? Always crispy. I'm usually a ketchup-with-fries guy, but not here. You HAVE to get a side of their sandwich sauce for dipping. Game changer. I want to call it the best fish sandwich ever, but honestly it's bigger than that -- it's one of the best sandwiches I've had in my life. Viral for a reason. read more

This is a massive chicken sandwich that manages to stay neat, from the tightly packed slaw to the double wrapped bun in a self-standing holder. I got medium heat which was maybe a tad too much since it drowned out the other flavors. But then again what other flavors? Crunch factor was there. The Asian slaw was interesting due to cilantro and an assortment of thai chilis. But chomping through the half chicken hanging out the bun, I felt it lacked salt or something to bring it all together (mind you I did not order sauce on the side). Also for all the awesomeness inside the sandwich, the storebought bun was weak, not enough structure or flavor to keep up. Anywho worth a try but need some tweaks to wow this fried chicken sandwich lover. read more

I've been wanting to try this place for so long and finally had a chance to drive to LA. First - parking could be rough. The parking lot is tiny and there is a small underground parking. And the spaces are soooo tight. Do not drive a big car out here. Luckily there is a security guard that helps you find an open space. Food is definitely fast casual. There's a small standing countertop if you want to eat there. It's not air conditioned so not the best place to enjoy your spicy food but it tasted best fresh. The hot cod sando was very good. And they don't skimp on the portion size. It was so hot and fresh. My son enjoyed his 2 piece tender and fries. We both asked for mild and it felt more like medium heat to us. If I ever come back, I'd probably not get any spice. read more

As a fried chicken sandwich connoisseur, I thought this spot was a solid 3.5/5. Adding another .5 stars because my friends did a takeout order and drove 30 minutes before we ate it and the chicken was still nice and crispy. We ordered the Taiwanese style popcorn chicken sandwich and the schezuen style chicken sandwich with 2 fries. I preferred the Taiwanese style although I will say it wasn't as strong in that flavor per se, it was very mild. The chicken is also more on the thin side compared to other fried chicken sandwiches. Absolutely loved the coleslaw with pickled veggies in the schezuen sandwich as well. Overall, I think I'd be back but it wasn't something Id go out the way for. Definitely a nice spot to try due to their unique flavors and twist on chicken sandwich! read more

4 STARS Daybird serves up some pretty large and juicy Szechuan chicken sandwiches. The sandwich features a Jidori chicken thigh fried in rice bran oil and house-made spicy slaw on a Martin's potato bun. You can choose 5 different spice level options: no heat, mild, medium, hot, or extreme. I went with medium and it had a nice kick, but wasn't overwhelmingly spicy. As chicken sandwiches go, this is a pretty good option. They are $16 per sandwich, which for the size of the sandwich isn't a horribly overpriced sandwich. I got fries on the side and a drink as well. There is a little parking lot in this plaza. Inside of Daybird, there was standing room only on the sides to eat. Other customers come in to pick up and take the sandwiches to go. read more

Parking is sparse here and the intersection is a bit odd but despite this, Daybird is worth the drive down to LA and dealing with the anxiety of parking, praying and hoping the parking gods will be kind to us today. Indeed, it was. If you wanna eat it, expect counter space. It's not fancy and not sure how easy or hard it is to find a space to park yourself inside so you can take a moment to enjoy the deliciousness that Daybird is. Chicken sandwich is solid! But if you're lucky to come when they have their fish sandwiches, geez...you won the lottery. It's the luxurious twin of the filet-o-fish! The cool, crunchy sexy one. Is it worth $20 though? I'm stilk debating this question but worth the $20 to give it a try...not sure I'd spend $20 again for it though. Not because it's not good but at $20 a pop and I'm no trust fund baby, my pockets aren't deep enough like that. For the value, 7/10. If you want an absolutely delicious chicken (or fish if available) sandwich and you're willing to separate with $20+, come to Daybird and gamble with the parking gods. But surely, you know the food won't be a gamble. Solid 10/10! read more

Daybird - Szechuan Hot Chicken Sando, 2 Piece Tender, fries, Daybird Sauce, Habanero Ranch - Chicken Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This small shop served the absolute best Chicken Sandwich I have ever had. It's large, tender on the inside, crisp on the outside, and super flavorful from the Szechuan spices and from the fresh slaw of cabbage and peppers. The bun hold up perfectly with this delicious sandwich. The large chicken thigh sticks pretty far out of the bun, so I started by cutting off a few pieces and dipping them in the Daybird Sauce. The creamy and slightly sour sauce was a perfect compliment to the spicy chicken. The chicken tenders were also amazing. They were large, moist, and crispy on the outside. Once again, the Daybird sauce paired perfectly with the Tenders. However, my friend was not at all impressed with the flavor of the barbecue sauce. The big surprise here was the amazing Fish Sandwich! It's an elevated take on a classic fish sandwich that will remind you of the fish sandwiches you ate as a kid at that place with the yellow arches. But, this one is so much better! First, the cod I filet is large and so juicy. But, be warned, it is served piping hot, so let it rest for a minute or two before eating it. The tartar sauce is really special and they make sure you get enough of it. You have the option of having your fish sandwich with or without cheese. Of course, I had cheese on mine. The same bun is used for both the chicken and the fish sandwiches. The shop is small. There is a 15 foot counter you can eat at, but that fills up fast. So, be prepared to eat outside or in your car. The staff here are very pleasant and they are happy to assist you as you order. You order at the front counter and they bring you your food. It's also fun because you can watch the cook prepare your food and everyone else's. I came here because this is Chef Mei Lin's Chicken Shop and I wasn't sure what to expect. I left feeling so happy and satisfied from one of the very best lunches I've ever eaten. Daybird is wonderful and it is worth making a special trip to visit! read more

Daybird is located in a busy intersection near Koreatown. A rare spot that has a free parking lot and some spaces in front of the store. Wish there was more seats, but it's only a standing bar that can probably comfortably fit 10 people standing. Went with a few friends, so we tried a few of their sandwiches. The Schezhuan hot chicken sando was definitely the best item - juicy chicken, generous coleslaw and fluffy bread. The Daybird sauce is also really yummy. I don't recommend getting the chicken tenders (our mistake for even ordering it in the first place, but we wanted some variety for sharing). Be aware, everything is very spicy here at the medium. We couldn't finish all our food because the spice was so numbing. Numbing, but delicious! read more

Through Postmates, I ordered a fish sandwich, 2 tenders and an order of fries. These culinary geniuses sent a fish sandwich, with no fucking TOP BUN! HOW THE F*CK DO YOU FORGET TO PUT A TOP BUN ON SANDWICH?! I don't even care how it tastes. The complete and utter incompetence ruined my appetite. Imagine if I had've went ahead and ordered the caviar with it. How disrespectful would it have been to have a $90 fish sandwich, with no top bun?! They didn't provide me with the daybird sauce I asked for, for the tenders. Clearly, somebody over there is high or possibly even ret*rded. Or, maybe this is the new business model, do dumb shit that ensures people won't come back a second time. read more

Aight, a little late to the game, but had this bookmarked because of the viral caviar fish sandos. I did not try the caviar (because it is $80) BUT settled for the fried fish sando and the chicken sandwich! BE WARNED, the fish is HOT!!!! Because it it freshly fried! But man, this sandwich was heavenly! Very simple yet well seasoned. The tartar sauce wasn't too overpowering and was just all around great! Chicken sandwich is great too! Didn't think the coleslaw really complimented the best with the chicken, but nevertheless, was fantastic! I would definitely recommend the fish sando first then chicken next, and they DO sell out of the fish sando, so make sure to get there in a timely manner!! read more

Uber Eats review - got the fish sandwich with yuzu tartar sauce. Fish sandwich was epically made - some good quality fish, was fried very well and did not feel oily. Yuzu tartar sauce was awesome as well - but the fried fish filet was the star. The only problem was the price - was tough paying $21 for a fried protein sandwich - was really good though. May order again if I'm feeling to indulge in a high-end sandwich. read more

Today I commuted 40 minutes to try this place out. I ordered Daybird for pickup through DoorDash, so I can't comment on service, but the food was ready impressively fast--about 15 minutes after placing my order. Tried the cod sandwich, which felt like an upscale Filet-O-Fish. The fish was crispy, the bun was soft, and the herbaceous tartar sauce added a nice touch. It was tasty, but at $20, a bit steep for a sandwich. I went with the non-spicy option, though the spicy version sounds interesting. Also had the Sichuan-style chicken sandwich, which was dusted with a savory, warm spiced dry seasoning. The slaw was pleasantly acidic, with pickled chilies and onions adding a nice kick. The Jidori chicken itself was huge. For condiments, I tried the habanero ranch, Daybird sauce, and the tartar sauce. All were solid, but the tartar sauce paired especially well with the cod. I would also recommend the Day bird sauce over the habenaro ranch. The Daybird Sauce is a creamy and umami condiment that pairs well with the chicken sandwich. The milk tea cookies? Incredible. Soft, perfectly textured, and full of milk tea flavor. I highly recommend trying this too! Overall, 4/5 stars. Great flavors and high-quality ingredients, though some items feel a bit pricey. Would definitely order again if I was in the area. read more

Fast-casual spot in Silver Lake. It specializes in Szechuan-style hot fried chicken sandwiches, a fusion twist blending Nashville hot chicken vibes with numbing, tingly Sichuan peppercorns and chile elements. The chicken sandwich is the star item, massive, crispy fried chicken that overflows the potato bun, making it feel like a generous portion. The batter is light yet crunchy, juicy inside, and the Szechuan spice delivers a unique citrusy, mouth-numbing heat rather than just straightforward burn. Levels range from No Heat to Extreme, I'd say medium/hot is the perfect balanced. The pickled chili slaw had great crunch and tang adding more flavor to the sandwich. Pricing is $20+, the spot is small with grab-and-go vibe, limited seating and potential wait times during peak hours. Highly recommended for fried chicken sandwich fans--especially if you like spicy, numbing flavors. read more

Hello Yelpers!! Well I haven't posted anything in a while, but I wanted to say a little something about this place. I trekked my way out to Los Angele after a friend recommended this place, the traffic, the the traffic!!!! I put on my navigator (Waze) and took the trip. It took me a couple of spins around the block to finally find this place despite may navigation telling me I had arrived. If you have never been, Daybird is located in a small and I mean small shopping center in the middle of chaos. There is no sign out spelling out Daybird. Instead you have a neon outline of a chicken head outside the location. It's nestled in next to a very busy barbershop and a spa. I made it and walked in. As soon as you walk in all you see is kitchen. 90 % of the location is kitchen and prep area and 10% is for waiting and stand (counter style) eating. Which there is nothing wrong with that. The smells being produced by this place will have you salivating from the moment you walk in. The menu is very simple and minimal which says a lot about the place. They don't have a multitude of things on the menu and what they do have they make very well. I ordered their chicken sandwich, fish sandwich and fries. The chicken sandwich was spilling out of the bun. I mean the chicken was enough for two buns. Accompanied by a delicious Daybird sauce, slaw and dusting of savory spices. I was in food heaven. I was so out of it I almost forgot about the fish sandwich. The fish sandwich was it's own masterpiece. I can only describe it as a brick of goodness. A 3-4 inch thick piece of golden fried cod seasoned with spices and seasonings. I was done. The fries were seasoned and fried to perfection. I definitely recommend this place. Take that drive. This just through me for a loop. I need to get out of my comfort zone and drive out of my area. So many places I neglect because I don't want to deal with traffic or lack of parking. This little adventure taught me some things are worth it. I hope this was helpful to you, as always Happy Eats Yelpers!!!! read more

Daybird is in an unassuming little plaza that has 30 minute parking spots on the outdoor level and an underground parking as well so keep an eye out on where you park. Upon entrance, the shop has a spicy smell which led me to order the chicken sando at the mild spice level which I was so glad that I did because even the mild spice had enough heat and I do well with spicy food. Ordered some sauce to put with the sandwiches but ended up not needing any. Just make sure to order fries to pair with the sauce since the sandwiches are best without the extra sauces. The sandwiches are seasoned so well, very flavorful! I know I'll be coming here for often in the future when I crave chicken/fish sandwich. The sauces and the veggie fillings of the sandwich can get things messy but that's what makes it fun to eat. Highly recommend! read more

I've had a lot of fried chicken sandwiches in my life and Daybird takes the crown for the best fried chicken sandwich out there. Located inside a strip mall with the narrowest of parking lots, Daybird is a very unassuming chicken shop. Don't let the lack of a line out the door scare you either -- the food speaks for itself. I got the Szechuan hot chicken sandwich -- medium heat, while my wife got the hot cod sandwich -- mild, with cheese and yuzu tartar sauce. Though I enjoy spicy food, I think medium heat was my limit. Anything beyond medium I would probably have a difficult time enjoying. The chicken cutlet is not the only thing spicy in the sandwich: the slaw contains a generous amount of spicy peppers as well. Don't say I didn't warn ya! The chicken cutlet is absolutely massive. Come hungry and plan on doing nothing after eating this sandwich because you'll feel like a potato afterwards. The chicken cutlet overextends the bun by 1.5 times and could easily accommodate another burger bun. The fry on both the chicken cutlet and fish filet is perfect. The crunch you get when you bite into the sandwich is not too dissimilar from taking a bite out of a potato chip. So crunchy! Both proteins were incredibly juicy and tender, especially the cod filet, which flaked apart beautifully. If you dine in, you're eligible for a 10% discount off each item. This was a nice surprise, as its not openly advertised on the menu. I wouldn't recommend eating this sandwich in your car as you will certainly make a huge mess. Taking down this sandwich will take at least 4 to 5 napkins. If you're a fried chicken sandwich connoisseur, you must try out Daybird. It's a perfect 5/5 in my book. read more
