Manager Eddie is the hardest workers and Farouk was the nicest with a great attitude, I normally don't leave reviews but these guys are different and I hope they get compensated well as I recommended a lot of family and friends to come to dizzy bird, Because I knew they would receive the most heartfelt food and best service look forward to coming back soon! read more

Service and food was Amazing! Farouk was great as well. Never disappointed when I eat @Dizzy Bird!

Adam and Parham had amazing service! Got us our food fast and even though we came close to closing they were extremely welcoming and helpful

I work at Irvine Spectrum so I eat at Dizzy once every couple of weeks. The staff here are wonderful! Even at the busiest time they are attentive and always smiling. I particularly like Parham and one of the young cashier (forgot her name). Parham is friendly and quick at his job. Thank you Irvine Dizzy Bird! read more

Good morning party people! It's time for another food adventure, this time over at the Irvine Spectrum! Yeah, we've been around before, but check it out: this time we're coming for some Lebanese rotisserie chicken, except, there's a modern twist! Look at this restaurant, it's got such fun decor, and the crowds were bustling, even on the off-hours! Well, there's gotta be a reason so many people are here, and your top throat journalists are on the case! We grabbed a seat and ordered up. Check it out, some frozen lemonade to start. MMmm: Just the refreshing thing I needed today. Sweet, acidic, and so good. But you're probably here to look at the delectable dishes. We've got their signature wrap, which has that crazy marinated rotisserie chicken, some garlic sauce, pickles, and special sauce, with more on the side for dipping! Where all my dippers at? It's crispy on the outside, and most definitely moist on the inside. It's got me...in a word, Dizzy. Now come check out the bowl too! It's a well-balanced dish that comes with lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, pickled onions, and various dressings! I really like the minty yogurt one. It's got that perfect zing that goes hand in hand with the chicken. Of course, we can't forget about the mac daddy, the 2 thigh plate! We got it with their rice and potatoes, and it also comes with a large pita and some toum: that's the garlic spread that you should crave. It's the perfect representation of the food here. Crispy chicken, flavorful lemony garlic potatoes, and the rice really soaks up all of that sauce and juice. It's truly a sight, smell, and taste to behold! read more

Was at the Irvine Spectrum and saw a line out the door for this place- I love Mediterranean food and I was excited to give it a try regardless of the wait, it took about 30 minutes for the food to come out on a busy day, a little hard to find seating because the store itself is pretty small, but there is plenty of seating outside of the store at the Spectrum. You can see the kitchen preparing the food from the register as well! We ordered the whole chicken which came with two sides and I think this one was my favorite because of how juicy the chicken was when I tore it open. We also ordered the chicken with the salad and a pineapple drink. Overall, I had a great experience and it was so yummy! read more

Dizzy Bird has quickly become one of my fav eats for chicken! I have been wanting to try this hot spot for awhile, so when given an opportunity, I scheduled a lunch date w/ the hubs (since we were already at the Spectrum, dropping off our daughter for a hangout). We stopped by on a late Sunday afternoon (around 2:30ish) and it was poppin'. Even tho there was a line, ordering was fairly quick, since we knew what we wanted & ordered via the kiosk. Seating (both indoors & out) was hot real estate, so you really needed to keep an eye out to grab one before it's gone. Luckily, a fam was finishing up as we finished our ordering. Upon seating down, our name was called at the pick-up counter, so service was efficient. The vibe is chill, but fast-paced/hectic as well. Both the hubs & I ordered a two-thigh plate ~ which comes w/ 2 sides ($19.99/each). We opt'd for just the classic/original, no fancy smansy sauce it up..so we can truly taste the quality. I chose the pesto pasta salad & roasted lemon garlic potatoes for my sides & the hubs got the side salad & baked sweet potato. It was alot of food, for the price point..so it's fair (factoring in, we are dining at the Spectrum too). The food was fresh, chicken was moist & flavorful, and everything was cooked perfectly. The chicken was really juicy w/ a crispy exterior, and the sides complemented the meal well. I loved my pesto pasta salad. It reminded me of a mac salad (which I always get if given the chance), but w/ a pesto taste mixed in. Filling & refreshing. The potatoes were seasoned & grilled well. It had loads of flavor. I really liked my hub's baked sweet potato too. We halfsies the sides, so that we each could try everything. OMG..do yourself a favor and order extra TOUM (it's only like 0.75 cents extra)!!! That Lebanese garlic sauce is BOMB! I dipped it w/ literally EVERYTHING ~ from my pita bread to my chicken, and even my potatoes. YUMSSS.. All in all, great portions for the price & definitely worth a visit, esp. if you're craving fresh and healthy & in the area already. We'll be coming back again. RxFoodie recommend!!! read more

Everything is fresh, from the chicken to the salads and the drinks, and it's quickly become one of my favorite spots out here. If you're at the Spectrum and craving something tasty and satisfying, hit this place up. read more

I've been meaning to try this place for so long and finally got the chance. It's located in Irvine spectrum, close to the playground. We got there right at opening and they always h a steady stream of customers. Service was efficient. Cashier was very patient explaining items to us newbies! Very casual atmosphere with seats inside and outside. Food came out fresh and hot. The chicken was so so so good-very tender and juicy. Fries were crispy and you can tell they just made them! Pesto pasta was also a nice added touch. I can't wait to come back in the future. read more

Just tried Dizzy Bird for the first time with a coworker for lunch today 3/24/26....sitting back at my desk trying to figure out where to begin. By far, what absolutely made the experience such a joy, was being helped by Tenzin!!! He was so happy to go over the menu and recommend things to us. Dizzy Bird should take notice of him providing amazing customer service! He was so welcoming and kind- it's not always the case and he surpassed my expectations. The food was amazing, not even gonna lie. I need to be back and try their salads. Everything tasted 10/10 !!!! They have a garlic sauce that is AMAZING!! This is a must try if you happen to be in the area or hanging out at the Spectrum. YUM!! I even ordered to go for next day's lunch!! So so good! read more

Got this to go and ordered it online. The food was ready before the estimated time despite it being quite busy at the restaurant. We ordered the quarter leg combo which comes with 2 sides and we chose the corn and fries. It also comes with some lavash, garlic sauce, and pickles. The food was delicious! Chicken was super tender and the garlic sauce has a nice kick to it that balances everything out. I want to go back and try the wraps! read more

Visited Dizzy Bird on Memorial Day, and despite the place being absolutely packed, the staff handled the rush really well and got our order out without any issues. We ordered the half rotisserie chicken with roasted potatoes, corn, and fries, along with the Classic Bird and Hot Bird shawarma wraps. The rotisserie chicken was the best part of the meal. It was incredibly flavorful, juicy, and tender. I've always considered Zankou to be the best rotisserie chicken around, but I have to say.... I think Dizzy Bird takes that crown now. The sides were surprisingly good too, definitely not an afterthought. Me and my husband loved the roasted potatoes and corn. Both were packed with flavor. As for the wraps, they were decent, but I personally don't plile the thicker crunch-wrap style bread they use. It felt a little dry because of the bread to filling ratio. Between the two, I thought the Classic Bird was better than the Hot Bird, though neither stood out as much as the rotisserie chicken. I'll definitely be back for the rotisserie chicken and sides, but will probably skip out on the wraps. The entire menu is halal. Parking at Irvine Spectrum on Memorial Day was incredibly difficult, so plan accordingly depending on when you visit. read more

This is my second time coming to dizzy bird at the spectrum. Both times I got the hot bird wrap. This time we placed our order online to avoid some possible wait time. Both times I've been to the store, the layout and size make it so that it ends up quite cramped and difficult to navigate, and there's no good place to wait to receive your food. The staff were friendly and accommodating, and are generous with sauce or whatever you need. The food seems to be consistently very fresh, and their flavors are strong and on point. I recommend asking for a side of their goddess ranch and hot sauce, both are made in house I believe and have very good flavor. Definitely worth the trip to spectrum just to grab dinner. read more

It was my first time trying this place after hearing so much about it and seeing their ads around Irvine. I honestly loved it! We ordered the 2-piece chicken plate with two sides (pesto pasta was delicious!), the garlic lemon potato which was amazing, and a chicken sandwich with fries. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly cooked. They also have great lemonade with free refills, and the ambiance is casual and family-friendly. Highly recommend if you're craving chicken plates, chicken breast, or a really good sandwich! All the staff are very friendly helpful. read more

Tough one. The chicken is pretty good. Spicy is on the spicier side. The issue isn't the food. Inside is cramped, blasting music and not a lot of seating. They have a counter but that's also where people reach over you to pick up their food. A few tables outside.....but it's five feet in front of the playground. Tons of kids just screaming. It's not a pleasant eating experience either way. Either a to go order or a door dash would be the way to go. read more

I really like this spot! If you're looking for a quick and tasty takeout spot this was a great one. There is seating but it's primarily a takeout style restaurant with condiments to go and a soda bar. I got the silly bird wrap and thought it had great flavor, the rotisserie chicken was cooked perfectly and the DB was the perfect addition of flavor. This will definitely be a new spot on my list! read more

The food was really flavorful. We got the sillybird with fries which has a good amount of chicken to vegetable ratio. The house sauce was good as well a tart flavor that's slightly sweet similar to a chick-fil-a sauce. The service was good the guy at the front was nice and had a good voice. The inside of the restaurant was chill with good amount of seating. I would come back here again. read more

I've always seen the line for this place and I've wanted to try it but I was like oh the food looks whatever.... so I came today for lunch and there was still a bit of a line but nothing crazy like on the weekends so I ordered the silly bird wrap and I honestly was not expecting too much from this place. I WAS WRONG. Wow was I wrong! First bite I was like OMG FLAVORRRRR the chicken was so flavorful the crunch on the wrap and that soft potato and that sauce!! The price was incredible for Irvine spectrum I will definitely be back!! read more

Recently stopped by this Dizzy Bird for a quick bite while I was at the Irvine Spectrum. I ordered the Cali salad with added chicken breast. It was very good and super fresh. Lettuce was fresh and crisp, chicken was super tender and tasty, chopped sweet potatoes added the perfect light, natural sweetness. Even the sliced jalapeño, it was so good. It had a light sweetness to it and not too sour, yet still spicy. Everything was delicious. Absolutely a must return. read more

Best chicken wrap I've ever tried. Thank God I didn't pass up on trying this place before I left. I ordered the Silly Bird wrap, which comes with their Dizzy Bird sauce. At first, I thought, how good can a three-ingredient wrap really be? It's just chicken, potato, and a pickle -- super simple. But wow, it was honestly life-changing. Everything paired perfectly with the sauce. The potato was cooked just right and added a creamy texture, while the pickle gave it a nice crunch. It was such a good wrap that I'd definitely come back again. I didn't give this place 5 stars, though, because halfway through eating, I found a hair in my wrap. It was probably one of the employees' hair since the place was packed, and they may not have noticed -- but it definitely killed my appetite and made me not want to finish it, lol. Would come again tho. read more

Whoa! This spot was popping at the Spectrum!!! With long lines and good eats, why am I even shocked. Our first time trying this and we got the plate, a wrap, and a bowl. Everything tasted fresh with quality ingredients, the chicken was tender and juicy, and the wrap - maaaann, that was my favorite! I'll come back here for the wrap for sure!!! This spot was so busy but it is right by a playground so that makes sense, there's also indoor and outdoor seating so it makes up for it. read more

WOW. WOW WOW WOW. dont know what to eat at the spectrum? This is it. The food is so amazing and the customer service was top notch. I will have to say since it is busy, it is crowded in there, especially since small, but thats also how you know it's so good! The people in the kitchen going to WORK. They are hustling with how many orders and just how busy. Respect to them. I will be back 1000x over. Got the hippie wrap, just add chicken. Crack. Thank you staff members, everything was phenomenal. read more

This place was a good choice for a hungry morning crave. The food is delicious as the chicken was juicy and flavored with goodness . I would have to try more of the menu later, however the service was really awesome I liked how well the dishes were explained and served with no time wasted. A good tip was given for it and I left the clean place with a satisfied tummy. read more

Came here on a Saturday during lunch rush hour ~12pm. It is small in there so if you plan to come when it will be busy you may want to take it out. The food is good. The chicken is soft rotisserie. We tried the wraps and they are OK, but the chicken plate is really good. It was SUPER CROWDED. Hard to find the trash all the way inside the farthest you can go back. Very chaotic. Overall, we will not be back when it is busy. Good food, but it takes too much effort to eat here. read more

Got the hippy bird wrap and added chicken to it. Was the ultimate wrap for me. The pickled onions and jalapeños, avocado, and sweet potato. Yummmmm. Plus chicken. Came with a sauce to drizzle or dip. Yesss. Also got the 1/4 bird chicken plate which was quite good but nothing amazing. Got it with fries and sweet potato. Both were fine. The fries could've been crispier. The garlic sauce was good. Pita was also okay. Service was pretty fast, I liked ordering at the kiosk. Ambiance was fine, got the food to go to sit outside read more

So this is a fast food restaurant. I don't normally give fast food 5 stars but this one deserves it. I was solo with time to kill so I sat at the counter and saw all the magic happening in front of my eyes. They serve a lot of meals! From the walk-ins to the door dashers, they move a whole lot of food swiftly. The kitchen is small and cramped but they seem to work harmoniously. I ordered the 1/4 chicken plate with my 2 chosen sides of fries and a salad. The chicken was moist and delicious. My fries were nice and crunchy. The salad (with dressing on the side) was refreshing. This was my first time there so I didn't notice it, but they include "garlic sauce" or Lebanese "toum". If you like garlic, toum is the bomb. I believe it's meant to be a spread on say pita or whatever bread you're having but man, you can spread that stuff on anything! I ate it with my fries! It's too bad that Dizzy Bird is only located in Irvine and Mission Viejo. I've already gone home to the Bay Area and I'm thinking about the next thing I'm going to try when I go back! read more

Really solid place at the Irvine Spectrum to grab some Mediterranean chicken! They mainly have chicken plates, wraps, or salad. Ordered the Cali-Salad ($13) and added chicken to it ($+3). You also get to choose one of their many sauces (Chose Tzatziki)! This salad was loaded with many toppings! And was delicious with the tzatziki sauce. Wanted to try a plate, but they were out of whole pieces of chicken (Came about 30 mins before closing), so I ordered the Spicy Wrap ($12). Had really good flavor and I did enjoy the flavor of this one, came with jalapeños and their Dizzy sauce (Which tastes like a spicy mayo). The only thing is I wished it came with veggies like lettuce, tomatoes, onions... it would make this wrap perfect! read more

It was a crowded Saturday when we tried the famous Dizzy Bird. There were people everywhere. After reading such positive reviews, we dove in. At first I noticed the layout, a front counter with an overworked, frustrated young lady taking orders. The line was long. It is a very small place, with a few tables in front, some outside, and a few in the back. If I use words like "crowded, confusing, chaos," you can picture the scene in your mind. There was trash on the floor, dirty trays, people standing wall to wall. We pushed our way to the front and ordered on a computer set on a dirty table. I asked the young lady, who was taking orders, to stop what she was doing to clean up the counter, so we could sit down, with only one chair, and eat. I guess I could eat standing up? Literally, there were six workers in the kitchen, two workers handing out food, and one young lady taking orders. None of them worked on the floor cleaning up, emptying trash, helping patrons, refilling supplies or anyway helping customers. I felt dizzy with all the confusion ordering our food and finding a place to sit down and eat. I also felt dizzy trying to find a trash can!! No wonder, this place is such a mess. Their only trash can for hundreds of people in in the back next to the bathroom. I felt dizzy. There are not trash cans in the front, or outside on the patio. There is no way to clean up. I felt dizzy again. And finally, the food came. It was five stars excellent, however, the portions were too small for the price. A whole chicken with two sides is $40.00 Two thighs cost you $23.00 The chicken was excellent. Five stars. The food is delicious, but the experience is not. Dizzy Bird earns three stars. read more

I've been coming to Dizzy Bird at the Irvine Spectrum about twice a week for the last few weeks, and I felt it was time to leave a review. First off, a huge shoutout to Farouk and Homero. These guys absolutely crush it. Every time I walk in, the line is moving fast, the restaurant is spotless, and they're working nonstop to keep everything running smoothly. On my last visit, there was an entire table full of pickup orders, and they had them assembled and out the door in what felt like minutes. They truly have this place dialed in. Now let's talk about the real MVP: the Dizzy Sauce. As someone who loves a good sauce, this is what keeps me coming back. It's packed with flavor and takes an already great meal to the next level. My go-to order is the Classic Bird Wrap with fries and avocado added to the wrap. Absolute chef's kiss. The chicken is flavorful, the ingredients are fresh, and everything comes together perfectly. The value is another reason I keep returning. My meal usually comes out to around $16, and honestly, it's worth every penny. Great portion size, great quality, and consistently delicious. I haven't worked my way through the rest of the menu yet, but judging by the steady stream of customers coming through the doors and ordering just about everything they offer, I'm clearly not the only fan. If you're at the Irvine Spectrum and looking for a quick, flavorful meal with excellent service, Dizzy Bird is definitely worth a visit. I'll be back again soon. read more

Dizzy Bird is located in Irvine Spectrum so parking can be difficult. There's a self order kiosk as well as a person as well. There's some tables inside and outside as well but during busy times, you made need to wait for a little. The chicken is very juicy and delicious. It's marinated and tender. The sides that I chose were potatoes and the pesto salad. The potatoes were cooked thoroughly and soft while the pesto salad was cold and flavorful. As Dizzy Bird is Lebanese, there's a lemon forward flavor for the chicken and potatoes. Overally, Dizzy Bird does a mean chicken and I hope they expand! read more

I'd heard great things about Dizzy Bird, specifically that their rotisserie chicken is the best in OC, and the praise is deserved. The menu offers chicken plates, bowls, wraps, and plenty of vegetarian options. You can also order the chicken à la carte. We ordered the Classic Bird Wrap to share. The chicken is excellent. Not dry at all, incredibly tender, and super juicy. The garlic sauce is delicious and really ties everything together. The wrap itself was smaller than I expected (don't share lol), but it's generously packed with meat. Note: the wrap had pickled vegetables, which surprised me and felt a little out of place. Personally, I'd only want them if there were other veggies too, like lettuce or tomatoes, to balance things out. Also, I was impressed by how evenly the wrap is toasted with grill marks too! It's perfectly crisp without being burnt. No idea how they do it, but it's done really well. And I wanted to say that I love the playful branding. Love, love the bright canary yellow accents. It feels fun and inviting. 4.5; would have to come back and try more read more
