    Combo #3 (Two Sando's)

    Food is good, however for the price is not worth it. The service is pretty slow. The place is so clean inside and out, very quiet too.

    Number 1combos with cheese added

    So happy we found this place! Local here in simi and it's def worth it. Delicious food!

    Only took two bites out of each, simply to be fair before I formed an opinion

    Completely empty, worker was sitting down on her phone when I walked in (understandable, it's slow!) but than seemed bothered that I came. Was like a robot, not even responding , after being cordial simply asking how her day has been. Over charged me according to prices listed on physical menu at restaurant, i.e adding cheese 99 cents per they charged me 3 dollars for two. Food seemed to just be sitting under a heat lamp or old and just got reheated? I could be completely wrong but it was very Dry lacked flavor, and the fries tasted like old oil. I've frequented MANY different hot chicken places, and see the similarities and how some places thrive more than others. Overall this place was TRASH. Service, GARBAGE. Worker, well... imma be kind and just say she should find where she's content.

    Rambo's #1 1 Chicken Slider & 1 Chicken Tender W/ Fries

    Rambo's Hot Chicken is absolutely delicious and I would 10/10 come here again! I came here during my lunch break and ordered the chicken slider and tender combo with fries, everything was hot, juicy, and super delicious. The medium spice level was perfect, and the coleslaw was a great touch. Meera, one of the employees, was super nice and told me everything is made fresh to order, and you can really taste that fresh quality. The painted walls and decor are super aesthetic too. Definitely support this awesome small business!

    Was expecting something different......... Unfortunately it did not wow me. Will I come back again. Unfortunately not. 3 total stars for the following: 5 stars for facility Very clean and very well presentation. 4 stars for staff: Very friendly and inviting 3 stars for Food: Good prices. Unfortunately the chicken sandwich was not what I expected. Maybe I was expecting it to be howling rays? The chicken sandwiches were more like chicken strip sandwiches. The taste was good Will I come back again? Dont think so Come and give them a try. Perhaps your experience will be different

    Angry Chickz really lives up to the name, that chicken came out looking like it had just lost full…read morecustody and was taking it out on my taste buds. Walked in thinking, "How bad can medium be?" Bro... first bite and my tongue started filling out HR paperwork. It wasn't, like, call-the-ambulance hot, but it was definitely "question your childhood and your life choices" hot. Spicy but not crazy... just enough to make you sweat a little and pretend you're totally fine while your date watches you die inside. The sandwich is stacked like it's trying to overcompensate for something, thick chicken, slaw, sauce, the whole situation leaning out of the bun like it's yelling, "You sure about this, champ?" Fries were solid, nothing life-changing, more like the supportive friend hyping up the toxic main character (the chicken). Vibe-wise, it's very "we know you're only here because you saw us on TikTok." You stand there in line rethinking everything, but when that bag hits your hand, suddenly you're like, "Yeah, I'd do this again." Overall: 9/10 would let Angry Chickz ruin my mouth and my digestive system one more time.

    Guess I can report that I'm not a fan. The quality of the chicken was quite good - plump, juicy,…read moreand tender. Unfortunately, "Mild" was not so mild for my tastebuds. I ended up with a burning mouth, and a runny nose from the level of spice. It even came down to scraping off the skin and spices to try to manage enjoying the center part of the chicken piece. Dear Hubby and I shared the #3 plate, which was one sandwich and one open-faced piece of chicken on a piece of Texas-style toast with a few pickle slices. It also came with a side of fries. We also added a side of rice (mistake - it was extremely bland and tasteless). Cole slaw might have been a better choice, and would have balanced the heat of the chicken. There were zero fountain beverages that I could enjoy. I don't drink caffeinated drinks, and I try to avoid copious amounts of sugar. I had water, and Dear Hubby got some root beer. The fries were quite delicious, and the amount provided was generous. That was a highlight of the meal, plus the dipping sauce for the chicken. The cashier was very friendly, so that was a plus and a good first impression. The interior restaurant space is really odd. They've laid it out so that two-tops are shoved up against one wall, and four-tops are shoved against the opposite wall, with an excessively large open space in the middle of the room. Seems like wasted space to me, and not visually interesting or welcoming. Farther across the room, away from the ordering stand and the kitchen, are several raised counters with barstools. DH and I ended up sitting at the end of one of those counter spots. We noted that there are other chicken spots very close by - Chick Fil-A, Zankou Chicken, Wing Stop, El Pollo Loco, this Angry Chickz place, and a Raising Cane's is going in to the spot previously occupied by Amy's. It's going to be chicken wars on two blocks of Moorpark Road!

They have shuffleboard, beer pong table, and TVs to keep you entertained while you wait for your food. Unfortunately a big group walked in 15 minutes after us and I could see our food was just sitting ready at the kitchen counter after the chef rang the bell to let the worker know it was ready. The worker was busy answering their questions and putting in their orders that our food just sat there until I finally got up to ask him if I could grab it. I heard another woman who was frustrated at pick-up as she was waiting a while for her food. There definitely needs to be more than one person at the front on a Saturday night. Overall, enjoyed most of the food. Would come back for the loaded fries and smash burgers. Didn't love the chef special.

    Tried this for the second time. I still don't understand…read morethe hype and I'm not sure if it was because I hadn't ate all day and was starving but I enjoyed my chicken tenders this time. But they don't stand up to the hype. It was very crowded on Sunday night both inside and the drive thru mostly high school kids. The service seemed nice and attentive. The place inside was a little dirty but nothing crazy. We ordered through the screen and got our order in about 15-20 min so not too bad. The chicken tenders do taste good with quality. They come out warm, soft but still with the crisp. The Cane sauce is good but the chicken tenders honestly don't need it because the chicken is good itself. I had their coleslaw which also taste fresh. Their fries were not as crispy as I'd like them to be but still had enough of the crisp and weren't all soggy. I had a bite of the chicken sandwich and that tasted pretty good but again I don't know if it was because I really hungry. They have a lot of combos to choose from and come off as a little overpriced. I don't mind coming back but really gotta be craving them to spend almost $20 for one meal.

    The wife wanted to give Cane's another go…read more Drive-thru on April 11, 2026 Saturday night at 6:30pm. Two Box combos. Simple and straight-forward. I get home, and guess what? No coleslaw in one box. Instead, 2 slices of the soggy bread-like substance, and I got one. How can you screw this up? We came here when they first opened when the line for the drive-thru was wrapped around the block. Now, it's easy to see why there's never a line. Look at the reviews. Look at my last review. ATTN: Todd G., I tried. Instead of your pathetic attempt at damage control, I'll do it for you: "We never want to disappoint and we regret to learn of your recent experience.

    At first thought, to call an eatery, "Best Damn Chicken", could be considered pompous, if not…read morepresumptuous, at best. So I had to try it out, to see what it was all about, and if their claim was indeed, warranted. Especially, if you think of it, in the context of the vast sea of competing chicken places, in the SFV and LA areas. Can they produce the best chicken that I have ever had? Read on to find out. This establishment is located in Chatsworth, specializing in fried Chicken and fried Catfish. I got the Gran chicken wing four piece combo to go. It comes with coleslaw, and french fries (my choice) or you can have veg sticks (next time). When I was driving home with the package, the aroma was distracting and intoxicating. I wanted to actually stop by the side of the road, to chomp on it, but it took a lot of strength to resist. Instead, I had their fries while driving, which were super. So what about, the main attraction, which was the chicken? It was spectacular. Deep fried, but not oily, and not the usual over battered crispy coating. Instead, this formula used a mix of cornstarch, flour, and something more secret, to deliver a savory and smooth even coating that had a unique crunch and bite. The chicken meat in all the four pieces was tender and succulent. It was truly exceptional. The wings themselves, were not too big not too small just the perfect size to hug the bone and harness flavor. Easily can be, the "best damn chicken" wings I have had. Wow. Thank you for that and for the high class carry out customer service.
