I really love the new honey chili crisp flavor they have going on now. Spicy and sweet with a crispy tenders. The wrap and salad are also amazing with the garlic ginger dressing. I hope they keep this permanently. The staff is super amazing here. Octivia and Josie are so nice. They take good care of the customers and really manage the restaurant well. The restaurant is clean and bathroom is well maintained. The Service is expedient and staff delivers high quality food. read more

Worst location of bad it took like 30 minutes to get my order. I seen people behind me get their order sit down and eat before I got my order. I saw my order sitting in there. I tried to ask the lady she seemed like she was busy sweating over my food. It was sitting there at least 10 minutes by the time I got it and took it and tried to get a bite out, but I couldn't even take a bite out of it. The bread was so hard so cold. I'm about to take it back though. The entire staff need to be fired cause I looked at a lot of other people pay. They didn't like what was going on also mind you I live across the street. read more

Starbird Chicken - Chicken Shop Near Me - Torrance, California

Starbird Chicken started in Sunnyvale, CA in 2016 and now has 19 locations across California and Colorado. The restaurant's concept is "super-premium fast food", offering antibiotic-free chicken, scratch-made sauces, and fresh vegetables. They've also created their own proprietary plant-based chicken substitute ("Garden Bird"). I was going to order a chicken sandwich but decided to try a lunchbox option called "The Star Box" for $10.97. The meal came with two chicken strips, a bowl of "Rainbow Slaw," two churros, and a fountain beverage. I liked the chicken strips because they weren't overly breaded or heavily seasoned. The meat was just right--not too moist and definitely not dry. I think this approach to chicken carries over to their sandwiches. It's a good preparation. The coleslaw has a mix of cabbage, red cabbage, and carrots. It is colorful. The seasoning is light, but the combination has a great taste overall. I'm a fan. The lunch box included two churros, each about the size of a large onion ring. They were served with a chocolate dipping sauce, though I enjoyed them plain. Lightly dusted with sugar, they weren't overly heavy or greasy and had a nice chewy texture. The beverage selection was impressive, featuring a variety of Alameda Soda Company fountain drinks and four types of lemonade / iced tea. I suspect much of the business comes from takeout or food delivery, but there's a pleasant outdoor patio with umbrellas. The indoor dining area is small yet clean and comfortable. This was my first time visiting this store and my first experience with the brand. This store provided a good first impression. read more

I wanna say the prices are good and customer service are good. This is more of a 4.5 rating. I have to knock off a star because it is SOOOOO hot inside the restaurant that it was cooler outside, in August! Caesar salad wrap: so good. We will get this again. Garlic Parmesan chicken wings bone in: better than Wingstop. The starbird dip was interesting and so was their spicy ranch. The wings are good without the dips too. Brussel sprouts: We loved it. A lil too oily but tastes good. Elote street corn: I have no idea what they tried to make. It's not elote street corn. We threw this away after a few bites read more

My friend treated me to lunch here recently. Starbird is located on Hawthorne Blvd where the former Spire's Restaurant was. We were welcomed in on a Saturday afternoon. There is an option to order at the kiosk or counter. We chose to order from the counter since it was our first time. We both went with the Big Star chicken sandwich. My friend opted for no Star sauce and had mine included. Crispy breaded and tasty! I also got fries for my side. Those were good. I like their selection of beverages. They have some refreshing drinks to choose from including sparkling water. Dining area was super clean and service was pleasant. Parking is easy in the plaza shared with other restaurants and the grocery store has since closed permanently. So there are plenty of parking spaces. Overall a great experience. 4 stars. read more

Starbird, you're a star! I love this place for their salads. It's definitely a portion size for 2 meals. I ordered the chopped salad double grilled chicken breast. I saw they added wings.... So yk ya girl had to try some. I ordered an 8pc half buffalo half garlic parm. Garlic parm wings were hitting. They were CRUNCHY! I was like wooooooow. Delicious. Wingstop who?! But then I had the Buffalo... these were more on the soggy side unfortunately. I was sad that they didn't have the same crunch as the garlic parm, so I'm dinging a star off for this. The chopped salad was amazing! No complaints there. I prefer no dressing because I don't like the one it comes with. It was pretty empty when I went so service was fast. Quality is consistent, I love it! read more

The Service: Octavia was helping us at the counter. So nice to walk into the restaurant and greeted with a smile! She highly recommended their seasonal special new menu, Japanese BBQ lineup. (Japanese BBQ Bird, Tokyo Sesame Crunch, Japanese BBQ Tender Box & Okonomiyaki Fries) The Food: OMG! The pickle ginger & wasabi aioli definitely brought the food to the next level! No more boring ketchup for my fried chicken & fries. When we saw the bonito flakes on the fries, yes~ that is so Japanese! Love that sweet & smoky BBQ sauce too. It's fun to see how creative they bring in Japanese flavors to their menu. "Oishi~" (delicious~) The Parking: Huge plaza parking lot! read more

I really wish we had Starbird in San Diego, this location in Torrance is the closest to me. I have also been to the one in Hermosa Beach before, but the parking is much better here. I really like the Elote chop salad, and it was big enough to feed both of us. I like that you have so many sauce and glaze options for the wings, and I like to use the Thai Herb Aioli as my salad dressing or dip for wings. I also like that there's a big choice in how you can get your chicken: standard wings, boneless wings, tenders, or nuggets. And the glaze choices, and dips. My favorite is strips or boneless wings. The churros were pretty good, but they're not my favorite. They are thinner loops, but I prefer the thicker ones that are a little softer inside the crunch. I probably wouldn't bother ordering them again. Ordering was easy on the kiosk, especially if you want to customize ingredients. You can also order on the app, which would save on the wait time. I was using giftcards, which were a little more complicated to use on the kiosk but not a deal-breaker. Parking was easy because it's in a large shopping center with other businesses. read more

The good: I got the Korean sesame fried chicken salad, a hot chicken sandwich and a kids meal (chicken nuggets and fries). The chicken had a great texture. The crispy batter wasn't too hard. The Korean salad was sweet and had SO much crunch (from radish, cucumbers, fried wonton strips, green lettuce, and chicken). I liked that the cucumber slices were tiny and small. It was cute and fine. Even the drinks were great! I tried the mango (green?) tea and pineapple limeade. I liked the ease of the self-ordering kiosk. The food came out promptly. There was both indoor and outdoor seating. If you're sitting outdoors you can see your name be called on a TV screen and there's an outdoor window for you to get your food. Our food was personally brought out to us by a server. There's plenty of parking. The salad was massive and filling. The bad: I wish it didn't cost an extra dollar to make the chicken extra spicy. The interesting: I've tried their other location in San Jose before and it had a similar modern feel with ample outdoor seating. They're originally from NorCal. read more

Starbird Chicken - Salad. Kids meal. And burger - Chicken Shop Near Me - Torrance, California

The food is VERY tasty, though this is definitely not the place to go if you're even remotely in a hurry. The service was very friendly, but definitely not efficient. After waiting a while, they ended up giving my order to another customer. They immediately said they'd remake my order, but that, of course, took even more time. Once I got my paws on my order of Japanese BBQ tenders, they were almost delicious enough to make me forget the logistical snafu...until I saw them have a similar incident with 2 other customers. Food = 4.5 stars Service = 2 stars So, with an average of 3.25, I'm dishing out 3 stars. read more

Starbird Chicken - Chicken Chop Salad...skimpy portion of chicken for the premium price!!! - Chicken Shop Near Me - Torrance, California

Overall, I'd give it a 3.5, but rounding up to a 4. Decided to give the new chicken place in the area a try. We ordered the Indian Hotbird sandwich and tender box because I usually find standard chicken sandwiches boring and lacking flavor. We also ordered brussel sprouts and fries. The home fries were sad. If I can't eat your fry standalone without dipping it in sauce, leave it off the menu I say. The brussel sprouts on the other hand was full of flavor, enhanced by the saracha aioli sauce. The chicken by itself was your average chicken, but the "Indian" flavoring did enhance the flavor and added a bit of spice. It wasn't as juicy as the picture. The saracha aioli was the star! We ordered using the self service monitor, food was prepared timely, and the person working the front was friendly. read more

Dont get the chicken strips! I was craving chicken strips and have had their chicken sandwiches which have been great every single time. They looked deformed and overcooked, and were as hard as a rock. Im not sure if they were severely overcooked or if they were just sitting around for a day and then they reheated it, because thats exactly how they tasted. They were so hard my jaw started to hurt from chewing the first tender. They were also flavorless. For chicken tenders do not go here. Update : I never put in a ticket (i dont even know how), this is my first time complaining about this issue, and I never received a response prior to their lie about a previous ticket. I guess I wont be back for the chicken sandwiches either. read more

Tried this new location recently and tried their chicken nuggets. These nuggets are probably the biggest I've seen at anyplace. I also ordered a couple of dipping sauces to go with them. The chicken was moist and the coating/breading has a nice taste to it. When I visited they took awhile to take my order since it looked like they were doing a lot of on-line orders. There is a big parking lot available so that's no problem. The service when they did finally get to me was good. If I go back I'll probably try one of their salads that looked pretty good. read more

So if you're like Megan and Bruno and you like your chicken Fat Juicy and Wet then this place is your best bet and totally legit! We ordered their Chicken Sandwich and strips along with a couple massive salads. I'm going to say their chicken is definitely juicy and will definitely fill you up! Ok maybe not you but for sure me! LoL! So yeah, their chicken is good so pretty much whatever you order it will most likely be good and that's my opinion since we had four of the items on the menu. The service was great and even though it was packed they didn't miss a beat. The place is kinda small but they do have patio seating available and from my observation it's a popular grab and go. And that's my take on this chicken spot, Peace out... read more

Starbird Chicken - The Set Up - Chicken Shop Near Me - Torrance, California

Stopped by this brand new location to grab some quick bites. I ordered the chicken strips, masala fries and blueberry lemonade. Staff were friendly and welcoming Facility was clean, organized and plenty of seating Ordering was quick, easy and efficient As to food: the blueberry lemonade was phenomenal and definitely a must try. The chicken strips were crispy, seasoned and a decent size. The masala fries while good, were not my cup of tea given it was so many overwhelming flavors and the mint sauce took over the whole flavor component of the fries. (They aren't also a great transport item to take home, the need to be eaten as soon as you get them) All in all I'll definitely return to try their many other menu items like their salads, Brussels sprouts and burgers. read more

This is my second Starbird review. My first began with the utter hassle of trying to use their kiosk to order. Today was even worse. As I said I'm very computer savy. But this was a total exercise in frustration. I made a selection and went back to order a side dish. Doing cancelled out my first selection. I selected the side and went back to select the main dish and, again, th side dish disappeared. I gave up at that point. I noticed other people trying to use the kiosks and they looked flustered and confused and, like me, ordered at the register. Now I have to be really fair when I say Starbird's food of good - but not for everyone. I ordered the plain wings and the Elote Street Corn. I don't like spicy foods and figured the sauces would be more than enough. The wings and the corn were out pretty quick and I sat down to eat. As I said Starbird's food is not for everyone and I guess I'm just mot that one. The wings were breaded and so deep fried that, even with their Star sauce, they were hard to eat. To me they were beyond deep fried and somewhere around distasteful. I only ordered 8 wings, I ate 5 and tossed the rest. I was expecting the Elote Street Corn to leave me with a better feeling but was I wrong. The corn was so heavily spiced it had the wrong sort of "kick" to it. One could barely taste the corn through all the seasoning which might have been great for some and terrible for me. I don't like leaving bad reviews and this is more about my personal enjoyment and not a general dislike for the entire world to read. I've been to many restaurants where the choices are limited but I cannot r call a time when I totally disliked everything I ordered. It's sort of like out of 100 people a few will just wish they had eaten someplace else. The place was clean and looked great. The staff members very friendly. The kiosks are terrible. The parking is excellent and I'll end by saying if you like spicy breaded chicken this is the place to try. Hopefully most people will like it much more than me. read more

Located in a plaza with plenty of parking and across the street from Del Amo mall. We walked in and were immediately greeted by an employee. There was a set of kiosks you can order from, as well as the option to order from an employee. We ordered the Thai spice chicken tenders. It came with a side of fries and 1-2 sauces. We chose the herb aoli and truffle aoli. The chicken tenders were actually really really good. It was glazed with a sweet and savory sauce, and topped with cilantro and dried shallots. It was crispy and juicy, and the they were a large size! The herb aoli sauce paired the best with the tenders. The 4 pc tenders is definitely shareable between 2 hungry people. It was around $15 for this order. The food came out really fast, and the employee was really sweet. I'd definitely come back if I was craving tenders. read more

Starbird has been expanding in SoCal! They recently opened their new location in Torrance. It's in the same spot that used to be the old Spires Restaurant, but they constructed a whole new building in its place. You can order at one of the self-serve kiosks or at the register with an employee. They have an electronic boards that lists the status of your order which is helpful! Their menu basically consists of their fried chicken in different forms--tenders, salads, sandwiches, and nuggets. Their chicken is tasty and crispy on the outside, I'm a fan! I enjoy getting their tenders, and I love that they have so many choices of sauces to choose from (no joke, it's 12 sauces!). I also really like their salads! It makes me feel a little healthier getting a salad, but the crispy chicken on top makes me want to keep eating it! I've been enjoying their Avo Cabo Crunch Salad with crispy chicken, romaine/cabbage blend, grape tomato, pickled red onion, tajin jicama, cotija pepitas, cilantro, tajin, avocado mash, and avocado dressing. I tried their Nashville HotBird Sandwich for the first time and was pleasantly surprised by it! I'm not usually a Nashville chicken fan, but this one was good! It comes with classic slaw, dill pickles, Greek yogurt ranch, and mayo. Just be warned, this sandwich is pretty oily and can get messy! read more

Starbird Chicken made an excellent first impression during the grand opening of their Torrance, California location which I had the pleasure of checking out on June 23, 2025. It was a well orchestrated grand opening with plenty of friendly employees. The place was clean, modern, and everyone appeared very excited and happy to be there! I arrived during my designated time slot and noticed most guests were placing their orders via self-serve kiosks. I guess I understand the convenience and speed of the kiosk systems, I'm still a talk-to-a-real-person kind of person, so I opted to wait for a cashier which, in full transparency, did take a bit longer than expected. That said, the woman at the counter was very sweet, friendly, and helpful, and I appreciated her patience. I ordered the Starbird 2.0 Sandwich (crispy chicken fillet) with a side of fries and I'm happy to report that I made the right call. The sandwich was deliciously crispy, flavorful, and not too spicy which was perfect for me because I can't handle a lot of heat. The fries were tasty and dipping them in the roasted garlic aioli made them even better!! OH and a small but meaningful highlight? When I picked up my order, one of the employees offered me a free cookie as part of the opening celebration! It was such a sweet (literally!) and thoughtful gesture that made the experience even more memorable :-D Overall, this was a great first visit though the staff clearly cared about making a good impression. My only real critique is the kiosks...I genuinely miss the warmth and personal touch of human interactions when ordering - and the ability to ask questions! Even so, I will dine at Starbird again and look forward to trying more of the menu. read more

A chicken specialty shop. They have generally big portions so if you're a light eater, ordering the kids menu may be a wiser selection. Despite there being an ordering kiosk where the staff works, when I went, they only allowed kiosk ordering. Despite it being a chicken shop, I ended up getting their okonomiyaki fries lol. One of my friends had told me about their recent feature of the Japanese flavoring. When i heard that, the Japanese in me was thinking sus, but also intrigued. The fries genuinely smelled like okonomiyaki lol. They drench the fries with mayo, their rendition of the otafuku sauce (okonomiyaki sauce), and ginger. The kind of ginger they used was not for okonomiyaki but more for sushi, so I felt that the juice those ginger comes in makes the sauce unnecessarily sweet. I kinda wish they used the red ginger one as it's a bit more spicy in the ginger-kind of way. I wish I asked for the sauce on the side, it was a bit too sweet for my liking so a hint of it would have been better than my fries swimming in them. Regardless, overall it smelled like an ononomiyaki and I enjoyed my fries. They had a fried chicken version of it. My coworker said it was pretty good. They also have house-made drinks like mango green tea, black iced-tea. I had the mango green. It was pretty sweet so it tasted more like juice than tea, but regardless, I enjoyed it. I'm excited to try their other options in the near future. read more

Second South Bay location! Starbird sure has come a long way in the South Bay since I first checked them out back in 2022 for a Yelp Elite experience at their ghost kitchen location in Hawthorne. Shortly after that ghost location stint they opened up their first official South Bay location in Hermosa Beach. Now they have their second official South Bay restaurant right here in Torrance! Starbird Chicken Torrance took over the location that once was housed by Spires. A whole new restaurant facility was built. (Mendocino Farms will be taking the second half of this facility). This new spot is cozy and cute. The employees are super friendly and you can either order up front at the counter or at the computer kiosk. They have a cool screen that shows you the status of your order. For my first visit here; I got to try out their chicken wings and truffle fries. I got Garlic Parmesan Wings and Lemon Pepper Wings along with Truffle Fries. The wings came out hot and fresh. I loved the perfect golden crisp of the chicken wing skin. These wings paired well with the truffle friesx Their tagline is "Positively Delicious Chicken" and I can definitely say the chicken is indeed delicious. I'm very happy there are now two locations in the South Bay! I'll be back for more of this delicious chicken soon. read more

I don't have to trek over to Hermosa Beach anymore for delish (Nashville) fried chicken sandwiches. This is my first grand opening since I've been a Yelp Elite. It was hectic but efficient... met Austin, Digital Marketing Manager, who flew in from San Francisco to promote the grand opening & welcome their VIPs; team members were helping with kiosk orders, expediting food orders, & answering questions, etc. It was a cluckin' awesome kick-off!! Located in Plaza del Amo Center, Starbird sits next door/north of Mendocino Farms with plenty of parking surrounding the restaurant. There's no drive-thru or nearby reserved spots for quick takeout pick-ups. The dining room is small with patio dining available, but not all tables offer shade. There's 2 unisex restrooms in the back that are clean & well-stocked. The only thing I would prefer is a lock that indicates if it's available or occupied. According to Starbird's website, their Crispy Chicken is never treated with antibiotics, always fresh, never frozen, & individually hand breaded in their secret blend of gluten-free flour & spices. I likened Starbird to In & Out, made-to-order freshness for chicken instead of burgers. I walked up the a line out the door & just lined up, figuring that someone inside will inform the VIP guests how to claim their free entree. While waiting, Austin stepped out to welcome the new guests in line & explained the process. I waited 10-mins. & was able to place my order on 1 of 3 kiosks. You can also place your order at the counter with the cashier. While waiting for my lunch, I chitchatted with Austin & traded local favs of Japanese restaurants. My order was ready in 12-mins. with a couple dozen customers ahead of me. That's quick! The salad had some heft to it. It was tasty, light, & refreshing! I didn't feel a food coma coming with so much yummy food. The yuzu sesame dressing was fantabulous! They need to bottle the stuff & sell it as a standalone... I've been on a yuzu craving streak, & this citrusy dressing really hit the spot! The fries were pretty good only because the skin/outer layer wasn't as crisp; they were better in subsequent visits. I came back a few more times to be crowned Yelp Duchess... can't bring myself to order the sandwiches or tenders yet because of my salad addiction. Kids loved the kid's meals: tenders & nuggets, but would have preferred the lemonade fountain over a juice box; older likes the tenders, younger favors the nuggets. The churros had a crisp shell with soft insides, & served with maple syrup; I would prefer if the batter has some spices like cinnamon or nutmeg, or coated with cinnamon sugar after frying. It's the perfect sweet treat to complete their lunch! Right now, there's 2 more seasonal salads: Avo Cabo Crunch & Creamy Tzatziki Chop that are also on my radar once I satisfy my yuzu kick. Their soda fountain is anchored by Alameda Soda Co. (lost island ginger beer, olde fountain creme, mango sparkling water, oaktown root beer, cable car lemon lime, hanger 25 cola, hanger 25 diet cola) with a lemonade (classic & POG: passion fruit, orange guava) & iced tea (classic & strawberry hibiscus) fountain. 5 entree options: sandwiches, nuggets, tenders, salads, & wings, with sides & drinks at moderate prices. Am I a fan of Starbird? Heck yeah! Recommended: Everything I ordered, especially the Sesame Ramen Crunch Salad! Tip: Download Starbird's mobile app, spend $10 or more, & receive $10 off your next visit. read more

I have never been to Starbird Chicken but decided to check it out since one opened so close to me. Wow the place was hopping at 1pm on a Wednesday. There are tables with umbrellas outside as well as seating inside. I like the kiosks for ordering and how helpful everyone was for newbies like me. Once your order is ready you will get a text message abs your name will appear on the board. Portions are huge. We order the Big Star chicken sandwich, kids meal and the elite crunch salad. None of us were able to finish our meal in one sitting so definitely worth the cost. The kids meal was a hit with the LO. It comes with chicken tenders, fries, and a kids drink. My elote crunch salad was delicious. I like the dressing on the side so I could dip the salad and chicken in. I really want to try the other salads now Plenty of parking in the lot which it shares with a bunch of other stores. Welcome to the neighborhood ! read more

Just recently opened and ad their Grand Opening yesterday (June 27, 2025)! Welcome to Torrance! This new chicken shop has opened up across the way from Amazon Fresh. It is west of Hawthorne Blvd and easily visible from the road. Next door to it will be Mendocino Farms. We've eaten here twice already. The staff is very helpful with guiding customers to either the kiosks or to a live person at a cash register. After ordering at the kiosk, I kept a lookout at the TV Screen which indicates the status of your order. If you download the Starbird App, you can view the menu and order from there, too! They were rolling out the orders very quickly! We tried a different salad each time. We shared the Elote Chop Salad the first time and the Thai Chicken Salad the second time. They are both good. I appreciate the dressing(s) are packaged in a container and we can add them when we're ready. It's also nice to be able to control the amount. Many places add too much dressing to salads. The one negative we had was that the chicken was super salty on two separate days we went. I wonder if it is in the flour mixture or if it is added afterwards. I will ask next time. I would love to request a light salt level! I enjoyed their Alameda Soda Co. machine with locally crafted beverages. I tried a little of the Root Beer, Cream Soda, and Ginger Beer. Very tasty! My main drink was the POG Lemonade. With it having lemonade, the POG was less sweet and more refreshing! One thing I thought was pretty cool was that you can help fight hunger by donating a meal and it doesn't cost you anything to do it! It is provided through the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank. If you scan the QR Code it will take you to the GiftAMeal App which you are not required to download, and you can follow the steps listed to get that meal donated. How cool is that?!?! On our next visit, we want to try a chicken sandwich. Hope it won't be too salty! read more

The worst Nashville hot sandwich I've ever had. All the oil dripped out the back, leaving, an oily mess on the tray. Since all the chili flavor is in the oil, the sandwich was left with no flavor once the oil dripped out. This place really needs to re-configure their process for better oil retention. Was going to be 1 star, but gave them 2 because fries and churros were well-made. read more

Starbird Chicken is pretty fantastic. Their first week of opening had SO many customers waiting in line to dine there. They have a full service line where you get served by humans and a line for people who want to order on a computer. There's a staff member at the front who will answer your questions and guide you on your experience there. Since I was one of the first to sign up for the free meal for its grand opening--my first Starbird experience was a pro bono one. I ordered the Starbird chicken sandwich and the chicken was thiccc, crispy and hot. The sandwich itself was delicious and tasty. The sauce they use on the sandwich is scrumptious. Everyone there was ordering the salad. The salads look huge and delicious. I will get a salad next time. On their menu, they have sandwiches, salads, wings, nuggets, and tenders. The store itself is pretty and modern. Parking is in the lot, so you won't have a hard time finding parking. Starbird Chicken lives up to the hype! You won't be disappointed. read more

Starbird Chicken - The Starbird - Chicken Shop Near Me - Torrance, California

I had never heard of Starbird Chicken until last week when I got a notification that they were opening a new location in Torrance.. who isn't going to go try fried chicken? Everything is shiny, new and clean. You can order at the counter or you can use a kiosk which are plentiful. Chicken sandwich is good size, crispy, and really, really good. There are lots of choices for sauces so try a few.. I stuck with their original which was great. French fries are nice and crispy with no soggy fries at all. Next visit I want to try the salad I saw another customer with.. slightly jealous now.. Service is good so no problems there. You can sit inside or outside. Definitely give it a try. read more
