The food here is masarap (delicious.) It reminds me of the Jollibee that I had back in Manila back when I was seven years old, sa bata lang ako. I'm so happy that Jollibee is here and here to stay! My favorite is dipping the chicken into the gravy sauce that they provide. It is so good. Enjoy! read more

We like the Jollibee in Alameda. It closes at 10:00 pm on weekdays. We just arrived at Emeryville to drop off our daughter at college for her junior year. We were craving for fried chicken and found Jollibee to be only 15 minutes away. There was plenty of parking outside and the interior is fully lit and clean. The staff was welcoming and friendly. The cashier at the front was attentive and made sure we had everything we ordered by reviewing all the items on the receipt. We ordered two pieces of chicken Joy with rice and spaghetti. The chicken was crunchy and the meat was tender and juicy. This location did not have palabok noodles though but they do have them in San Diego. Either way, everything we ordered was delicious and completed our meal with A treat of peach pies. read more

Thankful for this Jollibee location in Alameda. Before this location opened, I'd head to the location in Serramonte Mall to get my Jollibee fix. Now it's just a short drive away! My go to is always the 2 piece chicken combo with mashed potatoes and a root beer or pineapple quencher. The chicken is always so tender I question if it's fully cooked but it isn't bloody and perfectly crispy on the outside. Tonight I ordered a deluxe spicy chicken sandwich combo to try something different. My first few bites into the sandwich made me think they gave me an original chicken sandwich. It wasn't until the last few bites that I saw a jalapeño and tasted a little spicy sauce. It would have been nice to have it more uniform throughout the sandwich but it did give me a chance to taste what both the original and spicy sandwiches would taste like. I'll definitely be back and order this again. Thanks Jollibee! read more

Stopped in to try their bacon avocado chicken sandwich ($9 for sammie only and about $14 for the combo with fries). I was pleasantly surprised. The breaded chicken breast was crispy on the outside and not dry inside at all. The bacon was decent, though I wished they gave more than just a thin slather of mashed avocado. Overall still a decent fried chicken sandwich that I would get again. read more

It had been a while since I have been to Jollibee. We were in the mood for fried chicken and choices are very limited and even Gross in the city. Jollibee is something different in a market saturated with Asian food of all kinds. Mind you, the Asian food in the Bay is the best, but sometimes something different is in order. Jollibee has a tasty looking menu with fried chicken, chicken sandwiches, burgers, spaghetti, noodles and more. I thought the chicken was good and far better than some other local offerings. The spaghetti for me would take a little getting used to. Having grown up with an Italian family, the Jollybee spaghetti is definitely not the norm with Italian cooking, but is much more common in Filipino circles. To me it's Ketchupy. Still it adds to the interest of having something different. I should say my kids do like it. Yeah, I'd definitely eat Jollibee again. I've heard the Adobo rice us really good. I'll definitely try that next time! read more

I saw this place advertise that they had the #1 fried chicken so I had to give it a try. You order from the kiosk or have an option to order with a cashier if you have cash. The food was decent. I enjoyed the chicken, peach mango pie and pineapple quencher. The biscuit was hard and cold. It was pretty packed inside so they are pretty popular. read more

Stopped by for lunch after shopping at Target. I got the angus cheeseburger combo. I thought the size of the burger was appropriate. The burger was just made so the cheese was hot and melted over the burger. The beef patty was not too greasy. And the tomatoes and pickles help break down the grease. I did enjoy the fries. It was hot, crispy, and salted well. Much better than other burger places where the fries are soggy. I left with a bucket of fried chicken for the family. read more

Came here two days in a row First day experience - service was poor Food delivery was 20 minutes with no explanation, but the spicy chicken sandwich was on fire Came again with co workers who is their fan Had the kbbq chicken - saucy and good , it's sweet but needs an extra kick. The pineapple quench was a surprise. Not what I expected very fruity and fresh. It redeems itself after all. read more

Hello Jollibee, Alameda! I was in the area and exploring the options around me for dinner when I came upon this location ~ I was SO excited because it's not everyday I get to indulge in a little bit of Filipino comfort food. The Vallejo location is a bit far for us, so this was the perfect moment to truly enjoy + also take a few things home for the fam. We went with Chicken Tenders served with the Signature Tender Sauce (FYI this is a great dipping sauce and topper for breakfast eggs too!), the 2pc Chickenjoy with Jolly Spaghetti, the Pineapple Quencher, Peach Mango Pie, side of Baked Cheddar Mac N Cheese, and side of Mashed Potatoes. To be honest, the family loved every moment of it! I'm not sure if Jollibee always had such a wide selection of chicken sandwiches on their menu, but would love to come back another time while I'm in the area to give one a try. Pricing is fair, plenty of street parking and parking within the shopping center, and to note..they don't like to create waste as they near their evening closing, so they make to order! This seems to be the spot to be ~ it was def. poppin with a mix of different aged groups. Fun service, hit the spot! read more

I've been here 3 more times since my first review after the Grand Opening. And I don't get all the bad reviews now. Each time, the chicken is as sublime as ever, always with that irresistibly delicate crunch and a tenderness that permeates every mouthful. It seems most of the down reviews are because of the service. Complaints of slow orders or ones with mistakes. But I've always had great service and perfect orders. Granted, I do come at later hours to avoid the meal time rush. But I think it can be expected if orders take quite a bit longer or more mistake prone if there are longer cues. Which is why I don't visit during those times. Each time I do come, the chicken not only arrives fast, but it's handed over at the pick-up area by a very eager manager or monitor, who is quick to grant any of my special requests: Hot sauce packs and honey packs. Also, the last time, it was the end of the night, and only smaller pieces were left, so they gave me four pieces for my three piece order. That's creative customer service! I always sit down to chow down on a piece even if I had planned to take it home, because the freshly fried, steaming hot bite is too irresistible. And even if it's cooled down some after I take it home, it's still mouth-boggling. I'm already thinking of my next visit. But my waistline warns me to wait for visit number 4. My tummy says why wait when you can simply add it to the list of Thanksgiving and Christmas meals I will promise to work off for my 2026 year resolution? Boy, that tummy can be a sneaky little devil... read more

Just delicious! I am always so jealous of places that have Jollibee... hopefully getting one soon in MA? Haha. We always make it a point to stop by for some chicken from Jollibee whenever we're in CA. We actually had just left a wedding and looking for more food... luckily we were able to order online for pick up, right before closing time! Love, love getting a bucket of their chickjoy chicken, all spicy, w/ mashed potatoes + gravy, and some pies! UBE & peach mango pies are TOO good. It's located in a pretty new & nice looking shopping area in Alameda. This was the best late night snack ;)) I'm not usually even a fan of fried chicken but Jollibee just does it differently, OKAY! read more

Digital ordering kiosk was broken but service was otherwise okay, nothing broken, nothing stand out. I had a chicken sandwich and here I must say, they know their way around a piece of meat at Jollibee. It was shockingly flavorful and juicy and the signature sauce, was signature saucing. While it wasn't the holistic experience that would make me go out of my way to stop by, I definitely wouldn't say no if someone suggested it! read more

I saw in the email that they were serving Korean BBQ fried chicken and decided to give it a try. We also got six pieces of spicy fried chicken in case we didn't like the Korean BBQ flavor. The Korean BBQ flavor was alright; it was flavorful, but did not hit the spot for some reason. Their spicy friend chicken tasted great as always. The only downside was that we ordered two buckets of fried chicken, but they only gave us two napkins in the bag. read more

My partner and I love Jolibee as it happens to be the predominant Filipino fast food chain in the world it seems. From some of the best fried chicken you can get at a fast food establishment, to Filipino comfort foods like palabok and the signature sweet spaghetti, Jollibee covers a fast food niche that other joints don't offer. However, when it comes to the Bay Area, there has been a large area encompassing Richmond, Berkeley, Oakland, San Leandro and even Walnut Creek that has not been blessed with the presence of ChickenJoy wafting through the air - until this past year when Jollibee opened up in Alameda. We have come multiple times since it opened, the first being the grand opening where we just missed out on some free merch - partially because the instagram post was pretty confusing about how many people would get the free merch and the instructions on what one would have to do to be eligible for it through the app (which still to this day doesn't work 50% of the time). The chicken and jolly spaghetti is always pretty good - same as other locations. Recently also tried the Katseye KBBQ collab and while it was a good chicken sandwich, the sauce is... interesting to say the least. Very sweet, and gives some hints of that gochujang flavor but is definitely not on par with any Korean Fried Chicken places. The sauce also cancels out the best part of the Jollibee experience which is the crunch of the chicken! One last thing thing that is a massive disappointment is that this location has a limited menu, with no items such as my personal favorite, hamburger steak with mushrooms. For such a prime location in Alameda, it sucks that one must still venture out to Vallejo or Hayward or San Francisco just to try their full menu offerings. read more

I just tried the angus deluxe burger here and it was delicious. Nice melted cheese and good flavor. It was so much better than McDonalds. The fries were made crispy and warm. I really wish there was a Jollibee branch closer to where I lived. read more

Stopped by for a late night munch with my bf last week! We wanted to try their cheeseburgers, which I think they call 'Yumburger'. It's a decent size & less than $8 each! The buns are more yellow in color than a traditional burger bun, perhaps an egg bun. It's so soft & slightly sweet which goes great with the fresh veggies and juicy patty. This Jollibee location is always very clean and feels very spacious compared to other locations. The tables are spread out slightly further from each other than other locations I've been to. They also have a patio seating area so you can dine with your dogs! Of course we got a bucket of chicken to share as well. Spicy, which is the best way to order it! It was crunchy, not too oily, and just the right amount of spice. This location does not offer palabok or halo halo yet. They were also sold out of the Mac and cheese. I have yet to try the Mac and cheese since they have been sold out every time I've visited here. Maybe next time! read more

Jollibee is my favorite place for fried chicken and I always order the spicy chicken with palabok. I was really disappointed that this location doesn't even offer palabok. I've never been to a Jollibee that didn't have it. The service was also a letdown. This was my first time here and unlike other locations that are usually packed, there was no line when I came at noon and no one waiting for food. I stood at the register while a girl was there doing something but she never acknowledged me. After about two minutes, someone finally came out from the back to take my order. The kitchen had plenty of people working but no one up front helping customers. Between not having palabok and the poor service, I don't plan on coming back. I'll stick with the Hayward and Union City locations. read more

The dark meat chicken was especially delicious, crispy and juicy with a fresh taste. We also appreciated the option to upgrade to pineapple juice for just 50 cents more. The place was clean, the staff had everything ready to go, and the whole experience felt warm and welcoming. A perfect stop after a morning out. read more

Came on a Sunday night with the kids for some fast food. The service always very fast and the food was hot. Got the spicy kbbq chicken, angus burger, and chicken strips and Mac n cheese for the kids. And of course a mango peach pie! Everything was good - though the crunch of the chicken is a bit lost with all the kbbq sauce. The Mac n cheese is so cheesy I always think you could add another cup of Mac and still have it be creamy and cheesy. The pineapple drink is tasty as always. If you miss the comfort of crunchy chicken, I would pick this over KFC now given the cost for everything is up. read more

Jollibee - Chicken Shop Near Me - Alameda, California

Cut and pasted from their website: "Jollibee is a Filipino restaurant best known for its fried chicken, burgers & pies." Quality/Quantity - This is not the "same" Jollibee I remember from back in the day in Daly City?!?! I do not remember the menu being so chicken focused. And because it was almost all deep fried chicken, I decided to skip my lunch here and only get the chicken for my daughter. Which she liked. Two piece chicken with spaghetti. Atmosphere - Good size location, both indoor and outdoor seating. Clean bathrooms, not sure if all the dispensers were working...? Soap, paper towel, etc. Plenty of mall parking. Open 7 days a week from 9am or 10am to 10pm. Service - Good. Events, fundraisers; see website. Price - $13.20; in my opinion expensive for what she got. Owner Comment - Congrats on your success since 1978 with your 103 stores in North America and 1700+ stores worldwide. read more

I have been curious about this place for a long time. I don't usually eat fast food but I got off work late and wasn't super hungry so I decided to stop in. It was around 9pm on a Friday and it was super busy so that seemed like a good sign. I decided to get the Korean bbq chicken sandwich. It didn't say what was on it but when I took my first bite it was bursting with flavor! It had a nice balance of sweet/spicy bbq flavor. It came with cilantro, red onions and cucumber. It was totally delicious!!! Messy but so worth it!!! read more

I've been having my meal delivered uber eats and not satisfied with the service. I was nearby and dined in. It was 1:30pm and not too many guests in line or seated. Everyone of the staff were hustling, however the service was slow. After I ordered I unstood why. There were so many pick up orders ahead of mine. Despite the wait, it was well worth it. My chicken was hot and delicious. Crispy outside and oh so moist with every bite. I'll always dine in. The store is well kept. And the meal was fabulous! read more

I had never been to a Jollibee, and I'm even Asian. But the reality is the stateside expansion of this popular Filipino-based chain has been fairly recent. I only paid attention when l noticed several young YouTube vloggers were getting overly excited about the fried chicken here in their relentless quest for more subscribers. Not that the Colonel and I are on intimate terms, at least since my self-indulgent youth, but the prospect of their so-called Chickenjoy appealed to me. The Alameda location was kinda on the way back from an errand I had to make in Oakland, so I thought I'd surprise Jamie W with dinner in a bag. I was early enough to avoid what I presume are the constant queues here. I ordered the $19.99 6-Piece Chickenjoy Bucket Meal Deal with Two Sides, Jolly Spaghetti and Jolly Crispy Fries. Shades of KFC! First off, a word to the wise...don't bother ordering fries to go (photo: https://yelp.to/6sKw3y1kni). They were stone cold by the time I got them home. However, the Fried Chicken held up just fine. I was thrilled when I asked for dark meat and was told that's all they serve. No dried out breast for me. Just three thighs and three drumsticks in an actual bucket (photo: https://yelp.to/mKrIHR5JMw). I just went for the original crispy, and we thought it was delicious, especially with the thick gravy which made dipping inevitable. The Jolly Spaghetti was rather intriguing. It was pasta noodles with melted cheese and a rather sweet red sauce leavened by the presence of sliced hot dogs (photo: https://yelp.to/g7BCHVp20c). Honestly it reminded me of Franco-American Spaghetti-O's out of a can, but sue me, I used to like Spaghetti-O's. Still, the sweetness of the sauce didn't do much for me. I got a couple of the $2.99 Peach Mango Pies. They were similar to the fried ones you can get at Mickey D's only the tropical fruit flavor was more refreshing (photo : https://yelp.to/BzrjHhea35). So even though it was takeout, our first experience with Jollibee was largely a positive one. We may need our Chickenjoy again soon. FOOD - 4 stars...the Chickenjoy is joyful, the spaghetti is more an acquired taste AMBIANCE - 3.5 stars...fairly spacious place in Alameda Landing SERVICE - 4 stars...smiling and quick TOTAL - 4 stars...dark meat fried chicken makes me jolly RELATED - Exploring Alameda?

I went up to visit some rellies in Alameda, and we all agreed upon Jollibee for takeout. I have been to many Jollibees in the US and the one in Rome, and the food is amazingly consistent. We enjoyed chicken, mashed potatoes & gravy, fries, their sig spaghetti, and peach mango pies. Palabok and halo halo were surprisingly absent from the menu of this location. My nephew said Jollibee chicken is the best of all the chains, and I agree. It was moist inside, and the batter outside was nicely seasoned and crispy. Likewise, the fries were GBD and the gravy flavor was the same as all other locations I have been to. Thirdly, the spaghetti hit the spot as far as Flip spaghetti goes. If you have had the latter version you know the sauce is sweet, and there are small pieces of Flip hot dog. Lastly, after the feeding frenzy we enjoyed the pies in small pieces to savor the flavor. My nephew picked up the food and said the staff was nice, and the place was busy on a Sat around 1 pm. This location is fairly new and in a cool shopping center. I'm sure there is a lot of buzz about the place. Jollibee does an excellent job of maintaining their consistency around the globe. I can't wait to go to the Philippines and try their standard items, as well as some unique items to the PI. read more

Jollibee has many restaurants throughout the SF Bay Area. The restaurant serves traditional comfort food with a Filipino influence. The Alameda location is in the newer part of town on the West End and is in a growing community of new townhomes, condominiums, and tightly situated upright single family homes. It's a cute area that is close to the old US Naval Air Station and its various breweries, start-ups etc... Well what do they serve? JB serves your American comfort food like fried chicken, mashed potatoes, flavored rice, burgers, sandwiches, spaghetti, a pie similar to McD's apple pie but in Mango. Yeah, somewhat traditional but slightly different to attract people wanting something different but not overly different to scare people away. So what do you mean? Well, the fried chicken is served with a brown gravy which many people dip their chicken into. We ordered a half spicy, half original with the latter being crispy and conducive for gravy dipping. The gravy reminded me of packaged Lawry's brown gravy and needed some spice to it. We had two sides with our fried chicken order - Adobo Rice which was bland and mushy as heck, and Spaghetti which is a sweetened version with a few slices of sausage, the sweet version reminded me of Spaghetti of my Asian youth where parents would use ketchup as flavoring instead of stewing tomatoes or using stewed tomatoes as a base. Not good or bad, but just different. JB is a passable alternative to KFC, Krispy Crunchy, or Korean FC for chicken but I'd prefer a gravy accompaniment with more spice to it, same for the Adobo rice - more spice to it. The spaghetti can stay as it reminded me of my childhood. Overall, I would prefer items with more spice and not toning it down for the Western palette. Also where are the more traditional Filipino foods? read more

2670 5th St Pad A Alameda, CA 94501 (At Alameda Landing) This is a review for the new Jollibee restaurant at the Alameda Landing Shopping Center in Alameda's West End. Jollibee is located across the parking lot from the Target store. I was there on a cloudy Sunday at 12 noon. I met up with fellow Yelp Elite Carol C. for lunch, and to share opinions and thoughts about this Jollibee. As we walked in, there were only two customers ahead of us and a few people behind us. I thought it was nice that it wasn't too busy, and there were plenty of tables available. My cashier/ order taker was very patient and polite. She listened carefully and took my order. Service Grade (5/5). My order taker encouraged me to try more things, but I just ordered: - 2 pc Chicken Joy (Orig) + Jolly Spaghetti - Mango/Peach Pie - Pineapple Quencher ---------------------------------- Total w/ tax= $20.46 Yes, the food was a little pricey. But I wanted to try menu items people seem to be raving about. After you pay, they give you a black device known as a "restaurant pager." When it buzzes and lights up, your food is ready for pickup. I think we waited about 5 mins. By 12:30, a long line formed and the place got busy fast. The inside dining room filled up, with some tables available outside on the patio. How was the food? Fried Chicken, 2 pcs, Leg & Thigh: You can believe the hype, this fried chicken is excellent! OMG! Eat it fresh, don't wait to get it home! Light crispy crust, seasoned just right. The meat is juicy, tender, and well marinated. Grade (5/5) Jolly Spaghetti, Grade (3/5): I have eaten Filipino Spaghetti before, so I knew what to expect. But this spaghetti reminded me of the pasta they used to serve us in our junior high school cafeteria. It was okay, but I won't order it again. Pineapple Quencher is a sweetened pineapple drink. Price $3.49. Mango/Peach pie is a delicious deep fried fruit pie. Price $2.99. Overall, a great first time here. When I return I might try the burgers, or just get a bucket of chicken with biscuits. MISC Notes: - Chicken in meals are all dark meat. - Some parking spots are very close to restaurant. read more

Jollibee -- always delicious! Fast service and clean ambiance. Plenty of seating. This time I had the new Korean fried chicken and the spicy chicken sandwich. The Korean fried chicken is good!

Jollibee opened where Spin! Pizza once was years ago. Inside & outside dining available. Line pre-noon short. Less than 10 serviced by 2 cashiers. Quick service.

Offerings: chicken sandwiches, pies, sides, burgers, chickenjoy combos/buckets, jolly spaghetti, drinks. Eats: 2 piece chickenjoy with side/biscuit (9.49) -order at counter, pd, food ready in 10ish minutes. -lst impression: tastes better than years earlier, no msg tasted. -thin crispy fries lukewarm, not too crispy. Innards not tastable. Didn't travel well. -crispy skin yes, chickenjoy meat tenderness, moist, semi-juicy abid flavor neutral. -gravy light flavor, sodium laden. Guessing this adds flavor to chickenjoy. -biscuit it is. Ok. Seldom eat so no opinion. Peach Mango pie (2.99) -tastes better the McD's apple pie, pricier.

Date: 10/27/2024 Time: 12 PM. 63° Partly sunny Jollibee had its grand opening on October 11, 2024. I chose to wait until the excitement and the long wait in line dwindled down some. Fellow yelper, Steve D, and I agreed to meet here for lunch on a Sunday afternoon (12 PM) to share our views/opinions on food, service and ambiance. Wait time wasn't long.There were two people ahead of us. However, the line was long when we were about halfway through eating. Eats: 2 pc. chicken joy and a side. My choice of side was a biscuit. Unfortunately, they ran out of b-b-b biscuit. I opted for the French fries and a serving of mac 'n cheese ($1.50 extra). A small tub of gravy was included with the meal. Okay, I am not a fried chicken and gravy person. It's nothing like having some syrup with that crispy fried chicken. Yep, I brought in my personal stash of sugar free syrup to enjoy with that c-c-c chicken. LOL (4 star) The French fries were on point - crispy on the outside, texture is soft and tasty on the inside. Best thing on those fries - they are greaseless. Watch out Micky D's, as Jollibee is going to give you a run for the money. I dipped my fries in the gravy, which is not quite the same as poutine or disco fries. (3.5 star) The mac 'n cheese was too cheesy to my liking. It was edible, nothing to write home about it. Smoked gouda cheese would have enhanced the mac 'n cheese. (3 star) I had a few bites of the peach mango pie ($2.99). Wow! The pie is absolutely delicious. It reminds me of the apple pie from Micky D's, but far much better. The peach/mango blend in a pie is bomb-diggity great. (4.5 star) Beverage: Brisk raspberry tea, which I normally have for breakfast elsewhere. Tea is tea. Fellow yelper had the 2 pc. chicken joy with the Jollibee spaghetti. I have to laugh as the spaghetti reminded him of spaghetti served in a school cafeteria. Then there is hot dog in the spaghetti, which is not my cup of tea. Spaghetti also had a sweet taste. Nope, I prefer savory, garlicky and spicy spaghetti. Based on my observation, the texture of the spaghetti looked more al dente than fully cooked. Service was prompt despite the wait in line. The drawback is the amount of space in this fast food restaurant for the number of customers dining indoor. There is outdoor dining in the patio area. Ambiance is casual and comfy and good for family dining. By the exit door are three bins for recycling, compost and landfill. Please bus trays to area by the exit door. Overall rating: 3.5 stars rounded up to 4 stars. read more

I was really excited to try Jollibee near my house. But the items that I was excited for were not here, palabok and the ube pie. I tried their chicken sandwiches and jolli spaghetti. Spaghetti was sweet and with hot dogs which I liked. Mac and cheese was a little overcooked and no texture. Adobo rice was yum in flavour. My favourite was the pineapple drink but just wish it was in a larger cup. The inside is spacious with big tables. There's an exterior seating area as well. The staff service is very nice. 4 rating instead of 3. Now I understand that certain locations habe different things but I got sad with no palabok fiesta...oh and it's a bit pricey. read more

Service is somewhat slow compared to other locations. Loud music, hard to hear the server. Chicken is smaller, way too small. And probably been in the warmer for sometime. Skin isn't that crispy anymore. What can we do, we're hungry. But it's jollibee, so that's that. No ube pie, yet. No palabok, or fiesta noodle. We'll still eat here as it's jollibee, lol. read more
