This is the best place ever! the food was incredibly delicious and the service was just as great if not better! I came a little short on a 3 finger combo and the guy taking my order payed for me. I was extremely grateful for that guy and will 100% consider coming back here, 100% recommend for food and service! read more

We started our visit to The Collection with lunch. There are several restaurants nicely spaced apart, but I suggested we check out The Annex for more options. The husband's mind was made up as soon as we walked in to see the large chicken statue in front of the glowing red storefront of Gordo's Hot Chicken. We looked at all the other food offerings, only to end up back at Gordo's. Ordering was very easy on one of the two kiosks. The team members are also quick to help or answer questions at the register. Our food came out fast! The Sandwich Combo (Regular/Hot) with fries and Mac & Cheese, no slaw for the husband. Gordo Fries Combo (Spicy) for me. We found it all fresh and delicious. The option for two sides (included) is great. We found the chicken moist and tender -- the heat levels were perfect. The Mac & Cheese was a favorite. It was one of the husband's sides and generously piled on my Gordo Fries. There's plenty of clean tables and seating inside The Annex. Orders are packed to-go so you can also enjoy it outside at the park or community areas. read more

I was really excited for this. I loved burnin mouth and was confused that it was replaced with another chicken place - chicken sandwich : it just didn't have flavor. The construction is weird bc it's like in a small hotdog bun. The chicken felt over cooked. While the flavor of the breading is good (can really taste the rosemary), it was wayyy too crunchy and hard. Like my teeth hurt after. Very weird with pineapple slaw, where the pineapple is definitely canned. - Mac and cheese : my husband liked this but I didn't. The texture was great, but it doesn't taste like cheese at all. I can't explain it - sauce : their sauce is almost identical to Chick-fil-A sauce but more Smokey - fried pickles: great texture but literally no flavor - gordo fries: this was the only thing I liked. The chicken was still overcooked but overall the sauce from everything made up for it. Interesting experience but would not return. Food looked better than it tasted unfortunately. read more

My friend and I stopped at Gordos Hot Chicken for lunch which is located in the Annex at the Collection. We both had been eager to try this spot since it opened fairly recently at the annex food court and anyway is an excuse for fried chicken. There was no line so it was meant to be. You order at the electronic monitor in front of the store and it was all pretty easy to navigate. We were also impressed that the food came out pretty quickly yet all tasted super fresh. I ordered the three tender chicken plate with fried pickles and Mac & cheese. My friend ordered their loaded French fries but of course he wouldn't let me take a picture of it...Okay, let me reframe, he started eating BEFORE I could take a picture....men lol. The chicken was definitely juicy and huge pieces of white meat for the tenders. My friends loaded fries plate was gigantic so be prepared to come hungry. I'd say the chicken was really good in terms of portion size and freshness, however I personally like a little crunchier / thicker batter and the seasoning was on the mild side. The Mac and cheese was good for sure and different. I don't think I'd get the fried pickles again, small and crunchy but they don't have homemade ranch here (they just give you the packets - so that didn't seal the deal for me with the pickles). I think next time I'll try the loaded fries plate with chicken and Mac because my friend liked his meal more and a lot of people that messaged me when I posted I was at Gordos earlier recommended the fries :) They have a unique flavor profile and taste which isn't comporable to other fried chicken / hot chicken joints I've tried in the area. If you are a hot chicken connoisseur I'd be curious for your take on this spot. Overall I'm just happy we have some new and creative spots popping up at the Annex which makes this a spot for everyone to come, catering to all tastes and preferences. Always happy to try something new and wishing them much success at their newest location in the 805. read more

Fellow yelpers , I'm from the Inland Empire and picky eater. I had seen this restaurant on instagram and decided to take a drive to Oxnard to check it out. This place did not disappoint. The staff was professional , and friendly. The menu is simple but has something for everyone. Who does not like chicken , fries and Mac n cheese? This place has a Gordos Chicken fries and they are tasty . Hookup with season fries , Mac n cheese, chicken coleslaw with bits of pineapple. It may sound weird but it's tropical and crispy in one bite. The location is nice , you can come with the family, or by your self. The scene is cool . Very nice ambiance to enjoy good food. Will be coming back. You have to check it out your self read more

So Yummy!! Ordered their party pak for a team meeting. It was awesome. Super easy to pick up! Everything was ready and HOT on time! The team loved it!! read more

This spot is mid when it comes to hot chicken. I've had the GOAT aka Howlin' Ray's many times. So obviously tough to compare to that. It pales in comparison to Dave's and similar establishments. This chicken isn't even hot spicy wise and the breading is terrible. I ordered the 3 tender combo and the bottom of the tenders were soggy with no breading or crispiness. The chicken itself was tender and cooked well. That was pretty much the only highlight. The crinkle cut frozen fries are under seasoned. I can do better at home. The Mac and cheese had a decent flavor but overall nothing special. I've given those spot a couple of tries but will definitely never return. Like many Annex restaurants i doubt they will last. Hopefully the food truck survives. read more

Gordos Hot Chicken - Sandwiches Near Me - Oxnard, California

Food here is delicious! It's become mine and my husband's favorite. He loves hot chicken and we've tried other places but this place is better than all the others. The spice is perfect, perfect blend of sweet and spicy. Fries and Mac are delicious too. We will drive 30-40 minutes just to eat here. Definitely worth the drive! read more

Gordos Hot Chicken - Sandwiches Near Me - Oxnard, California

The food is good. I'd say a solid 7 out of 10. The customer service is good. The service could be a bit faster but it's not terribly slow. It's a food truck so no place to eat and sit down. It's a park it & spark it type of vibe. The Cole slaw has pineapple, which is controversial but I like it. The Mac and cheese is 10x better than the fries. The fries look well seasoned but they still lack more flavor. The sandwich is over all good, I recommend the try out. read more

Gordos Hot Chicken - 2021 Food Fest - Sandwiches Near Me - Oxnard, California

This place was GOOD before it was changed to Gordos. The chicken was insanely dry and bland. The noodles claimed to be mac and cheese but was actually a tomato cheese sauce and was mushy and over cooked. The fries were decent. They somehow managed to mess up pre-made Kings Hawaiian rolls by soaking them in butter and attempting to make them be like Texas toast. They were soggy and inedible. Gordos ruined this place. read more

Gordos Hot Chicken - Fries, chicken, and the so-called mac and "cheese" - Sandwiches Near Me - Oxnard, California

My coworkers and I ordered food from this place, and unfortunately, it was a big letdown. I got the chicken Gordo burger combo with fries and mac and cheese. The fries were bland, the mac and cheese had no flavor, and the chicken in the burger was tough and stretchy. I started freaking out because I'm pregnant and the texture made me worry about food safety. I didn't finish it and ended up giving the rest to my coworker. I definitely won't be coming back. Customer service was just okay, but we ordered through a kiosk so there wasn't much interaction with the staff anyway. Honestly, I really miss Burnin Mouth. They had the best chicken sandwiches -- super flavorful and always fresh. Does anyone know what happened to them? read more

I'm always excited to try a new hot chicken place. But I left disappointed. Two out of my three tenders were tough, and dry. There was very little flavor. The fries were crispy, but unseasoned. Local competition with hot chicken is very fierce, I have several places in Thousand Oaks and Simi that I love, that have consistent quality, that make me tell my friends about them. (Also, they give me sauce for dipping, which this place did not do.) But unfortunately, the meal I had today was just mid. read more

I'm a long time customer from the first food truck and it's cool to have seen this business grow into a brick and mortar. The food is delicious and the restaurant provides a cool atmosphere where I know that it's always open and the restaurant is really clean and the staff is friendly. It seemed a little busy but I did not wait more than 10 minutes for my food and everything was fresh and crispy. I like that they took over the old restaurant here and they really keep everything nice and clean along with great customer service definitely try them out! read more

Gordos Hot Chicken - I ordered the 3 finger combo with regular spice level - Sandwiches Near Me - Oxnard, California

Idk if it's the service or the food that left the bad taste in my mouth. I feel if you get bad service, everything else will just be as bad. I was there on Tuesday, Girl that works there needs to be sent home when having a bad day. Anyways, I ate stale fries and terrible Mac n cheese. I think food comes out better from their food truck. read more

Finally got to try the Gordo's Killer Hot Chicken. This is really as good as comfort food gets. The killer hot chicken is as hot as it is flavorful. These guys really have the flavors dialed in perfectly. The fries are ok, but all the other sides are simply superb. This is the only fast food place that can satisfy foodies. The massive portions make this place a truly fantastic value. I wish they weren't located in a crummy mall, though. read more

Everything except the fries was mid, and the chicken kinda made me feel nauseous... but the fries were good, and the service was nice though! read more

So I would give 5 stars because their chicken is very well seasoned & flavorful..BUT this is the second time I've ordered their Fried Pickles & they are cut Wayyy too thin! By the time they fry them & give to the customer, it's a hard chip with pickle seasoning.. I hope they can change their recipe & cut their pickles a bit thicker so they are enjoyable just like the rest of their food. read more

It's been a while since I had so bad chicken! It's not easy to make fast food chicken taste like shit !

Bruh they give u like 5 fries the Mac n cheese tastes like tomato sauce not worth $16 the chicken has no flavor Dave's and canes is 1000x better read more

I actually didn't order anything , it's Monday and was looking for something new to try to start up my week. I was very curious and wanted to check this place out. I've heard good things about this place . But that cashier... might as well work at McDonald with that attitude. read more

I've been seeing this place all over my ig and i went for lunch before my tourney yesterday the gordo fries were bomb but the cashier with the chopped bangs was rude asf My friends said the same thing ya'll need to hire nicer cashiers read more

Ordering was very easy on the kiosk but then it came time to pay it made me tip.... I didn't see until my receipt was printed. All the tables were dirty upon arrival. The food was just okay Mac and cheese was weird, fries were soggy and cold, chicken "sandwich" was also cold and left much to be desired. Definitely other places I would go to instead of this place. read more

sorry didn't take a picture! first time there and it was bomb! Not to mention good value for your money considering rising prices. Highly recommend based on Service, Flavor and Value! read more

NOT GOOD!! Chicken was dry and tough, fries were very bland, and the Mac n Cheese tasted like spaghetti o's. If you want good chicken go to Smokin Jays. read more

For starters I went in today Friday 05/9/25 at 2:30 me and group of friend stopped by deciding wether going here or Dave's hot chicken. We were so wrong. Btw I was the one in jorts in a white shirt I will give them that their customer service was pretty good but they looked like they didn't want to be there. Second 5 bucks for a lemonade with no refills is crazy. Second the small portion of fries that deaduzz was like 10-15 fries. The mac n cheese tasted like it came from a can. And the chicken was cold it was mid. I chose medium but it had no seasoning. In the end I spent 23 for some mid food. Good thing I didn't tip. Go to Dave's or even canes. read more
