Kind of a small hole in the wall but the Food was Fyre! (Pun Intended!) I ordered takeout so I gambled a bit on what traditional flavor was. Turns out it's their original ranch based flavor. Pretty good, but I'm more of a spice person so I'll try one of the spicy options next time! Smash burger a little smaller than I expected but flavor was great! Might try out the chicken sandwich next. Looking forward to my next visit! Service was great. I kind of went when it was a low traffic but the guy at the the front was very helpful and friendly in getting my order quickly! read more

Fyrebird - Fyresmash Burger and Flava Fries (Traditional Flavor) - Chicken Shop Near Me - Gardena, California

where do I start?! first Ive never been here in person I think its important because it speaks even MORE to the quality of this food.. I have door dashed it now my 3rd time and the flavor and consistency deserves a post and kudos! The spicy smash burger was first w fries (didnt see that coming..delish it was!) fresh cut fries I dont play, im a fry snob.. like frozen fries, they are not cold and ready for the trash when they get here.. second time tenders w cali heat/lemon mix.. i will admit I take the heat in all forms but someone went super hard in the paint that day w the heat and i had to eat it in doses and thank god i had the spicy ranch to cool it down.. so this IS a warning if u cant handle heat! so today tenders again only tossed in lemon pepper-heat on the side which they sent the seasoning and not the sauce that I wanted but i was probably better w/o it lol spicy ranch to the rescue again! lets get into it.. im born n raised in LA.. I dont think ive had chicken tenders this good.. the quality of chicken/ size of tenders and batter is not old dirty grease.. its crispy seasoned skin but the inside is cooked well still juicy but not undercooked or dry and overcooked.. I enjoyed it so much today..i had to say something AND the food is still hot when delivered that means it went fryer to box and on its way! For never visiting this place and getting hot delish food consistently delivered.. Im a fan! Keep up the great food Fyrebird we're depending on you for longevity in this chicken game.. and try it if you appreciate GOOD fast food (there is a such thing).. enjoy! read more

Was finally able to try this place after seeing it all over my FYP. I ordered the three piece wings with fries in the garlic parmesan flavor, along with the buffalo flava fries with ranch. The fries on their own were very good. They were made from fresh potatoes, well seasoned, and thin cut. I liked that there was a mix of crispy fries and some softer ones, which actually worked really well. The buffalo flava fries were excellent. The buffalo sauce had a nice balance of heat and tang, and the ranch tasted homemade and was very flavorful. The chicken on top of the fries was extremely crispy, and they were generous with both sauces so almost every fry was coated. The garlic parmesan wings had good seasoning, but the wings themselves were a bit fatty. They had a lot of meat, but the skin reminded me more of Korean fried chicken rather than a classic wing. They were still enjoyable, especially dipped in the ranch and buffalo sauce. The wings were well coated and flavorful, although I have had better wings elsewhere. That said, the buffalo fries, sauces, and ranch were so good that I would definitely return. The inside space is small, so it is more of a takeout spot. Service was friendly and efficient, and we only waited about ten minutes for our food. I would definitely come back and try another flavor. read more

Good price, good service, good serving size, and great flavor. I'd definitely come back!

Ordered wings and fries combo. There was way too much grease in the food. The wings needed to be separated. Fries taste just like in and out (hard fries) . I would not go back to this restaurant read more

We live really close to Fyrebird and saw that they had good reviews so decided to check them out! We got their 12 wings and fries for takeout. The sauce we chose were garlic habanero and lemon pepper. We were really hoping to like this place but we were a bit disappointed. The fries were soggy and the wings were soggy as well. The lemon pepper flavor was salty and the garlic habanero was not spicy at all. There wasn't much flavor for the garlic habanero. We were confused. We thought there was going to be some heat to it since it was listed as the second hottest but there was no kick. Maybe you need to eat the foods at the restaurant when it's really fresh? Doing takeout was not the way to go read more

The service here is excellent! They go above andbeyond to please. The chicken was absolutely fantastic, generous portions, and fair prices. They have a very nice outside seating area, but the food is also packaged well to go. They put a lot of care and attention to detail into their food. The fries and a homemade dipping sauces were also outstanding. You simply can't go wrong with anything here. Wonderful family run business worth supporting. Highly recommended if you are looking for a delicious and flavorful meal in the area! read more

Surprisingly Great Chicken Sandwich... Definitely Worth a Visit This place catered lunch at my office, and they brought a solid selection of chicken strips and chicken sandwiches. I went with the sandwich, and it was really good. The chicken was crispy and flavorful, and the mayo added a nice balance to the sandy. They also asked if I wanted to dip the chicken in anything, so I went with barbecue sauce... great choice. Everything was super tasty and honestly rivaled some of the best fast food chicken sandwiches I've had. I hadn't heard of this place before today, but I'm told they have a brick-and-mortar shop, and now I'm definitely interested in checking it out in person. Solid lunch! read more

I don't usually write reviews, but this place deserves MORE than 5 stars--honestly 6 stars !! Best wings I've ever had and the fries are just as amazing. Everything is always fresh, hot, and full of flavor every single time I order. You can tell they really care about the quality of their food. On top of that, the customer service is incredible--super welcoming and the service is FAST. It just makes the whole experience even better. And the prices? Perfect for what you're getting. Highly recommend this spot if you want some of the tastiest wings out there. Definitely check them read more

A very cramped setup with no seating inside to speak of. There is an open air patio on the back but no place to wash your hands which when eating chicken wings is a must. Chicken was pretty good, crisply and piping hot which adds to the already long wait time of preparation and cooldown time before you can actually eat. My suggestion would be to call ahead then take your food home to given time to reach edible temperatures. That said, their homemade ice cream is really really good. read more

Wings were great, their ranch is awesome, I'd buy a liter of it! Fries were beyond salty, will not be ordering those ever.

Deeeeelicious! Every now and then I just want wings and I'm so happy Fryebird exists. I love the crispiness of wings and tenders and they have the perfect bite every time. These are the lemon pepper and it's a perfect blend of salty and citrus. Bonus points for having fried pickles! Service is friendly, efficient, and the wait time is perfect because you know you're getting food made to order. The outdoor patio area is clean, cozy, very welcoming. I'm already looking forward to going back! read more

Fyrebird - Fried pickles and lemon pepper bone in wings with fries - Chicken Shop Near Me - Gardena, California

I'm not a fried chicken connoisseur by any means but I tasted nothing unique, just fried chicken. A solid 3.5, but rounding up to a 4 because the chicken was cooked perfectly, it tasted fresh and juicy. I wanted to taste a variety of their sauces and spice level and ordered 4 sliders. I was surprised by the size of the sliders, larger than expected and generous use of chicken. I was disappointed with the heat. Cali Heat, which is their hottest, hardly had any heat to it, just a hint. The fries were very boring and cried out for some special seasoning. I just can't figure out what fried chicken sandwiches have against cheese and tomato. Those additions would take things to the next level. read more

Wings were really good. I did wish that the buffalo could've been fried harder, but I did call them and I spoke to someone really nice named destiny and she told me that it's not a problem to have them do that anymore. My personal preference is when I go to wing places at the wings are on the crispy side so they don't get too soggy when they're drowned in sauce and dressing All the sauces were good. The ranch was my favorite. For reference, I got the lemon pepper, garlic, Parmesan and buffalo Next time I wanna try the honey chipotle and the chicken sandwich I would definitely recommend and support black businesses read more

Small hole in the wall location that serves some great fried chicken and great French fries! Great service as well!

This is probably one of the saddest reviews I'd have to make. I have always seen this spot but never tried. We were excited to try it. Today I tried it, and unfortunately will not be back. The size of the so-called tenders is ridiculous. We ordered plant-based. Extremely pricey for the little pieces of nuggets. They're not "tenders". They were measly pieces of nuggets you get from the frozen section at the grocery stores. I buy the same stuff. You can get these plant-based options at your local grocery store. Some are tenders and some come as nuggets. These were advertised as tenders--but they're actually nuggets. It wasn't even a decent size. I would've been fine with it. There were no photos online because most people don't buy plant-based. $12 for a few pieces of nuggets was a joke. The entire presentation looked very sad. Just pieces thrown into plastic boxes. Even a five-year old would have plated it nicer. The only thing that made sense were the fries. Everything else did not taste good. The back patio was the only upside. My advice to the owners--just stick to real meat. Plant-based isn't your area. One other issue is that we tipped in advanced. We told them we were dining in "for here" and they never brought it out to us. This place has no service. At some places even if you order at the register, they bring out the food but they paged us to come get it instead. They were too lazy to bring it to their back patio. I guess since they already got the tip they didn't bother to make a first impression. They knew it was our first time there since we had a lot of questions and specific requests. First and last time. Don't recommend. The skimpy portion for the price is absurd and unacceptable. read more

I was skeptical about trying this spot however I'm glad I did because I was pleasantly surprised. Order came out pretty quick. The wings were crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The fries were also great! I will be coming back! read more

Loved this place! My burger slapped as did my wife's chicken sandwich -fries on point too - think we found our new neighborhood burger/chicken sandwich spot! read more

Ambiance: Not a big place at all... maybe 3 stools to sit at the counter. 2 benches outside to wait. Though it's small, it's easy to navigate.. you're in and out. Service: Guy taking order was patient, friendly, and helpful. I was able to mix flavors, he helped me decide on my order, and they have the option to text you when your order is ready so you're not just waiting around the already small location. Order took about 30 minutes to get. Food: My tenders were nice and hot, not crispy, but were juicy. The flavors of the sauces were strong. I'll definitely be back to try the other flavors /sauces. Fries were ok, needed more seasoning (the lemon pepper would've been good), and kind of soft, but they weren't terrible. I went on a Friday after work, and the parking was pretty easy. read more

Wings were exceptionally GOOOOD! my son loved the Hot Honey chicken sandwich, plain of course. I ordered the Cali Heat expecting sum FYRE.... Nothing. Maybe mild at best. Wanting to feel the burn, but I was disappointed, still a really big juicy piece of chicken though! No Ice in the machine either. read more

Good wings. Closest to the traditional buffalo wings flavor of the various places I've tried. I went for takeout and the trip back home cooled them down. Next time I have to try them freshly done. read more

The wings looked like proper wings, so I had expectation. I only gave this review 4 stars. I ordered and expected buffalo wings. For some reason, it tasted more like red hot sauce wings. Still good but didn't give me the iconic buffalo wing sauce I was craving. The lemon pepper wings were crunchy and thick. A little saltier than what I'm use to but still delicious. I want to give a high-five for that chicken sandwich. It was delicious. Juicy chicken. A good balance of mayo (or whatever sauce that is), and pickles. I love the textural element of the pickles in the sandwich. It was crunchy. Soft bread. Heavenly. Can't comment on ambiance since I got this delivered. Food traveled well. Please go grab that chicken sandwich though! It was the absolute highlight! read more

Anybody who knows me knows how much I love wings, so I'm always looking for a good wing place so that i don't overdose on WingStop. If this place was closer to where I live, it would probably replace WingStop as my go to place. That's how good it was! My explore page on Instagram recommended it, and I'm so glad I went. It's a small place where you order, but they do have a good outdoor dining area with plenty of room around the back. I had the sweet heat and spicy bbq flavors. The sauces were amazing, just sweet enough without overpowering. The wings were big and juicy, and the fries were crispy with just the amount of salt. I will definitely head back there again soon to try all the other flavors they have read more

The food was delightful, and the service was truly excellent; the ambiance was also quite pleasant, and I would certainly recommend it.

Been wanting to try this since I saw them interviewed on a local station. They are tucked away in the corner. The menu is not overwhelming. Chicken and the different spice levels. I couldn't decide which one I wanted, so settled on the sliders. This way could try at least two and not be too overly full. Got the honey hot and buffalo. I also got a side of fried pickles. The sliders were hawaiian rolls which contained the flavors of the tenders I chose. Also had coleslaw, pickles and tomatoes on it. The order of pickles was huge and came with two containers of ranch. You can choose the different flavors. I think the needed to turn the heat up on the oil as they were light in color, flavor was good. All in all I'd return. read more

Fyrebird - Not a bad little snack - Chicken Shop Near Me - Gardena, California

I don't know who was in the kitchen on Sunday but they are awesome. We had the best wings we"ve had from Fyrebird's. There was crispy breading, fried perfectly sauced and tossed and dry rubbed... couldn't stop eating the wings. The fries were perfect too, all golden and crispy. I went back today to see if I was dreaming and I was... my fries came out soggy and mostly blackened and the chicken was just a none breaded fried version half tossed with sauce leaking from the bottom of the bag. You can't set me up like that on Sunday and then let me down so hard on Wednesday, lol. Couldn't really eat the fries but did try to eat most of the wings... it was just so different from Sunday. It was a let down today after craving it again since Sunday. read more

This place is my favorite chicken spot hands down. The portions are large, the seasoning is delicious, the food is fresh, and the service and customer care is stellar. I've only eaten take out and my partner ordered their catering for a party and they have not let us down. I order from here every time I'm nearby. My only complaint is that they haven't added Long Beach (or where my neighborhood is) to their delivery radius. And did I add that the customer service is so attentive? The cashiers are always so helpful and polite, it's makes me happy to support this small business every time I'm there! read more

Excellent fried chicken and a great numbered selection of sauces from mild to blow your mind hot.

I was craving some good chicken strips and they did not disappoint. The chicken strips were so moist and flavorful. The french fries were fresh. I ordered our dinner online through their website. Our food was ready when it said it would be. I even got a text message saying it was ready, which was super cool. I would definitely go back! read more

Ever since moving to the US from Canada, I became obsessed with chicken sandos (thanks to Chick-fil-A). My person and I were craving some yesterday and he had suggested we come here. I. Am. So. Happy. I got the chicken sandwich with hot honey and garlic habanero "flava" and it was BOMB. They mark garlic habanero as second most spiciest, but to me it was just the right amount of heat. I did absolutely love it with hot honey-- it added just the perfect dash of sweetness. The customer service is really friendly and they really make you feel right at home. Inside the establishment, there are a few seats for dine-in, but I think it's mostly meant to be takeout. Can't wait to be back! read more

It's a sin I haven't reviewed this place yet. Fyrebird is the BEST chicken tenders I've ever had. I'm picky, my husbands vegan, most chicken tastes "off" to me. When I do eat meat, I want it to be quality. Fyrebird is so GOOD! I couldn't decide what flavor/sauces to get for a dinner party I was going to, so got Lemon Pepper, BBQ, Cali Heat, Garlic Parm... & more! They were all so tender & juicy inside, though depending on the coating, most would be saucey on the outside, though at least one was coated in a crispy/dryer outside, which I found perfect for holding & dipping in the sauces with my fingers. (I didn't take notes, so forgetting which were easier to handle & which were the "get dirty & fall in love" flavors. Point is all the different kinda of coating, and dipping sauce were excellent. Person taking my phone order and person who rung me up were incredibly helpful. They can steer u in the right direction if you have questions. I had some (probably annoying) questions and they were just so so helpful.). I loved them ALL! The hardest part is picking the flavor. Another plus was how well this was packaged, & thoughtfully labeled. The party was on a boat, with little room in the galley, so how the order was boxed was impressive & convenient for small places when ur chowing down. Everyone at the party loved the chicken! (It fit right in alongside the more sophisticated food. LOL). I don't live in the area, though have been back a few times. It's so good. read more

I wanted to love this place! I really did. The chicken was tasty, but it did not blow me away like I was hoping it would. My standard is Chick-fil-A, which probably says a lot about me already, but that's my baseline. Fyrebird was above Chick-fil-A in chicken quality, but not close to fries quality. The fries at Fyrebird were not great at all, no taste, no crisp, and soggy, so I would skip them next time. There is also a longer wait time for Fyrebird, which is both good and bad. It's good because that means they are cooking your food fresh, but it's bad if you don't have a lot of time to wait and when you get the fries and see that despite being cooked fresh, they are still not crispy, then my rating goes down a little. This location is really meant for pickup. Not the best ambience or seating inside. The parking lot is a decent size and there is neighborhood street parking if the lot fills up. read more

Good but not great. Would I come back? Maybe if I was in the area but not go out of my way for it. My sister and I split the two sliders (Cali heat & Buffalo), got fries and 6 pc sweet heat chicken wings. First off, fries look exactly like In-N-Out fries but doesn't taste anything like it, it's more rubbery and soggy no sign of crispiness. The fyrebird sauce elevated the fries a little (high key taste like the spread from In-N-Out). The chicken wings were more sweet than spicy, wasn't a fan. The only thing we enjoyed were the sliders. Cali heat and Buffalo were great sauce selections. read more

I never cared much for fried chicken sandwiches... until I came to FYREBIRD. the chicken is JUICY (thigh meat maybe?), that crispy crust they achieve when they fry it is impeccable, and the lemon pepper flavor? YUM, if you love lemony and salty flavors like I do, you'll definitely love that flavor. My go to is the Lemon Pepper Chicken Sandwich by itself and buy 1 Fyrebird sauce separately. Sometimes, I'll get the fries which are soggy skinny fries - I know that's not everybody cup of tea, but I LOVE soggy fries. They taste amazing dipped in the fyrebird sauce too. They also have soda fountain drinks, I'll get the Pepsi which is ok, but sometimes I'd be so extra to go across the street to McDonalds for a really good Coke. I also really love the service, there is always a beautiful girl behind the counter! LOL they are very kind and they have done me a favor and thrown in a Fyrebird sauce for free, because I somehow forget to add it to my order sometimes at the register :') Love them! Parking lot is medium sized, never really had to struggle with parking because this place hasn't attracted the crowds they deserve yet. They also have a large outdoor seating area in the back if you want to come here with with a big group for lunch. :) FYI they are closed on Mondays! read more

PROS: Cali Heat was a pretty good flavor that packs a good amount of heat without killing you. Buffalo was not too tangy, which I liked. Their fyrebird sauce tasted like In N Outs spread but without the pickles in it. CONS: Fries looked like In N Out fries, but tasted very rubberlike. Sweet Heat wings did not have any heat and was too sweet. Although I liked the flavors for the chicken in the sliders, I didn't really like the sliders overall. I would rather get the tenders or wings with those flavors. I would definitely give them another try just in case it was an off day for them if I was in the area. read more

Tried this for the first time since seeing it on KTLA. Ordered Chicken sandwich with fyrebird sauce to go with fries. Came home and they forgot to add the fries. For the sandwich, it tastes like a typical spicy chicken sandwich and the fyrebird sauce tastes like a mild Tabasco. The lettuce looks like In n Out's animal style onions. It's chopped up so small. I'm a bit disappointed. Missing fries, tiny bits of lettuce and Tabasco tasting sauce. read more
