    Look, skin ripped off NOT OKAY
    Susan N.

    Yummmy, tasty and colorful! Food selection is vibrant and plentiful. First time trying this place. I ordered the roasted chicken plate with 2 sides and 2 sauces plus pita bread. The rice is just plain white rice so skipped on that. For sides, got the jalapeño mac and cheese and the cucumber salad. Regretfully, I wish I got different ones. The mac was meh, nothing special. It looks better in photos than it tasted. The cucumber salad was alright. I wouldn't get it again. I was hoping it would be more like a Greek/Mediterranean cucumber salad. Wish they had tabouleh! Anyway, never getting those sides again! What I should have gotten was the potato salad and something else like hummus. Oh well. My friend's roasted chicken was fall off the bones. Mine wasn't so much, I had to tug at it but the chicken is flavorful and worth the order. Upgraded to butter garlic seasoning. Must do the upgrade. Wish it was more garlicky! The dip sauces chosen was chimichirri and garlic spread. Both very yummy. Service was great. Available and easy to get their attention. My biggest complaint is that my half roasted chicken came with a quarter of the chicken skin ripped off. We all know roasted chicken needs to have skin intact because that's where the flavor is concentrated. I felt cheated! I love skin too so it happened to the wrong person - ME! Boooo.

    I would like to start and say the vibes are really cozy and pretty. And the service was nice was very informative and attentive. The food for me personally was very overwhelming . I believe their signature sauce was on everything and that was a lot to digest . Maybe if the sauce came on the side I would like it more. I would give them another try cause the flavor is there; it's just too much. They have a lot of deals ; and huge margaritas options

    the Downey Supper Club met and enjoyed food and service on Tuesday the 10th of March. we were a large group of about 40 people. we were seated on the patio and took up the entire space. there were multiple servers to assist our large group. the service was friendly and efficient. the food was super yummy: i didn't hear a negative thing from anyone in the group. the check out was super easy with their digital terminals, so there was no problem with 15 to 20 separate checks. this was our first time here but we would defiinitely return for the service and yummy food: and so should you

    I absolutely love brunch and this may just become a staple in my book. My friends and I were seeking to try something new and I had been hearing about this place for quite some time. They have bottomless mimosas so I already knew I was going to enjoy myself. I got a chicken quesadilla with fries, one of my friends got chicken sliders , and plantains , another friend got taquitos and chicken wings. Everyone was pleased with their meal. However, I will say if you are a saucy lady like myself , add pico and chimchurri sauce to the quesadilla- it's a little dry without them. I believe our serves name was Maria, she did a fabulous job, and it was her birthday! They played music , loud enough to have conversation and still be able to sing. Overall, we had a great time and will be returning .

    The Service need improving, the waitress brought the drinks before the glasses. She brought the ketchup after we ate. The chicken was super dry, had to send it back. The cauliflower tasted burnt. The Nachos were delicious. The margarita flight was great, a little strong. The amblance was nice and are group had fun.

    Sliders , Al Pastor Taco, Small Chicken Pozole Soup
    Bianka G.

    If you love all things chicken and looking for some fun tasty drinks, this is the place! This is also a good spot for large groups. There's seating indoors with a bar area and outside seating in a "covered" area. They have an extensive menu of items featuring chicken and a lot of it looks really good. The plates that were coming out do the kitchen were loaded. We ordered some fried chicken sliders with their habanero sauce , a small chicken pozole, and a chicken Al pastor taco. The tangy creamy slaw on the slider was a nice balance to the heat of the sauce, chicken also had a nice crunch. The small pozole is plenty and comes with onions cabbage radish on the side. Then u dress it all up with lime and ground red chile paste. Packs serious heat but also flavor! Made that pozole pop. The Al pastor seasoning on the chicken for the taco is good and great pairing with the pineapple (rightfully so) So far so good on the chicken items. We did also order fried but they arrived cold and were pretty bland. Oh the cucumber agua Fresca is refreshing and sweet. Although it was a busy Sunday morning , service did not lack. You can pay your bill at your table with the server, which is quick and convenient. Parking in their small lot can be tricky though.

    Outside seating area

    Came in during a slower time and got seated right away. We chose to sit outside -- the setup and design are beautiful, giving off perfect brunch or date spot vibes. I ordered the Popcorn Chicken appetizer and the Breakfast Sandwich (with fries on the side to share). The food was excellent. The breakfast sandwich was a little messy from the sauce but packed with flavor -- solid 9/10. The popcorn chicken was GREAT, crispy with a nice kick of spice, served with pickles and sauce, and a generous portion size. Our server, Adriana, was amazing -- super friendly, helpful with recommendations, and checked in on us consistently. Service like that really makes a difference. Overall, this place is a 10/10 for me. Great food, great service, and a relaxing atmosphere. Also noticed their bar setup -- big craft drink selection that looks worth coming back for. Definitely will be returning soon!

    Exterior seating area

    3.5 stars. We were greeted and seated right away. The outdoor space is very nice and I'm sure would be very comfortable in a variety of weather as it is screened in. I was surprised and pleased to see a full bar, even though I didn't have a cocktail on this visit. I had the esquites with shredded chicken and my husband had the Grumpy Chicken sandwich. The food had good flavour, although they initially forgot my shredded chicken; and my husband wished his fries were hotter. Other than that, and waiting too long for the check, service was fine. I would definitely come back.

    Margarita pitcher, taco sampler, loaded, nachos, side, chick Sliders

    Came here on a Sunday and it was excellent! The outdoor seating was really nice and made for a better vibe than I expected. I have had chicken koop plenty of times before and it's very good. I'd recommend anything on the menu. My personal favorite is the loaded nachos sub for pastor style chicken. SO GOOD! Also got the hibiscus margarita pitcher, it's definitely a good bang for your buck. Very yummy and not overly sweet. My only critique is the service could've been better, I asked for extra napkins I never received. But overall, 100000% would recommend you come here ESPECIALLY DURING HAPPY HOUR.

    Understaffed on a promoted taco Tuesday. Food was not good at all. Waste of time. Would not recommend.

    Love the service ,workers are great and fun .. food was very good chicken was seasoned extremely well love this place..

    Cuban Style Plate! ( ^_^)b
    Kevin M.

    We dropped in to the Chicken Koop for a late night dinner a few weeks back after shopping at the outlets. The Chicken Koop had a lively vibe with music playing and steady flow of customers. The location has a nice bar centrally located with inside and outdoor dining around it. There are plenty of TV playing local sports games as well. Service was ok during our experience. We were seated quickly and attended too periodically. We ordered the Cuban Style Chicken plate and the Curry Chicken Wrap. Both dished were very good and can be shared easily. The portions are good and match up to the prices. The dipping sauces as well are bomb! We got some Chimichurri and green sauce and wow! They were addicting and elevate the dishes to another level. Overall, our experience was adequate and we'd return for another visit in the future.

    is this a club bathroom area?
    Keith K.

    Nice spot, looks more like a nighttime type bar, but closes at 10 pm. If you like chicken this is the place, they offer just about everything with chicken. For example, I was in the mood for eggs and waffles, and that comes with the waffle stuffed with chicken! They will put it on the side if that's not your thing. There is a generous outdoor patio area with fans and street noise, but on a hot day, you're better off going for an indoor table with their lovely air conditioning. A full service bar with lots of seating around the bar area, just like a real bar, the kind that stay open till 2 am. Even the bathrooms reminded me of the sort of thing you might find at The Standard or similar, individual private booths (tiny rooms?) with a central hand washing trough for all. The staff was great and there were lots of them. The parking lot is off street behind the restaurant with lots of spots for all. As for the food, overall it was fine, nothing fantastic, but good fare with a helpful and generally happy staff. More like 4 and 1/2 stars.

The ex and I popped in on a Sunday evening to see the Dodgers play. The 2024 World Series Champions **poppin' collar**. This is what we had - we shared. 1. Boneless Dream Wings served with veggie sticks and chips - those chips are fiyah! The boneless wings were good as well. I prefer bone-in but the ex doesn't, so, I compromised. I recommend Stealth and Aviator seasoning/flavor. 2. Street Tacos - you have the option to choose from chicken, shrimp, and carne asada (they will allow you two pick two different types of meats). The tacos are served with a side of chips and guacamole. The tacos were good, they are street tacos, they are small but pack a punch of flavor. I don't know prices - ex paid. He didn't complain so it must of been reasonable. Pros 1. Clean environment. 2. Service was great. 3. Multiple TVs - can see from any angle inside. 4. Food is good - traditional bar food, but still tasty. 5. Free parking but not many parking spots direct in front of bar. However, Flights is located in a larger shopping area that offers plenty of parking. 6. Large beer selection. Cons 1. Seating is close, so, you may be closer to people you don't know. It's not horrible just in arms proximity in most areas. #tightsqueeze I recommend Flights. It's a hidden gem to catch sports, vibe with others, eat some tasty bites, and drink beer (is that's your thing). I say, pull up neighbors.

Every screen was on and there were folks at the bar and in the center dining area. We took advantage of the buy one get one free burger deal only available on Mondays. The caveat to that was that we also had to order an appetizer. For the appetizer, we got the pork ribs and they fell right off the bone!!! The flavor was great and the meat was so tender. For the burgers, boyfriend got the smashed burger with onion rings and I got the ABC burger with sweet potato fries. My boyfriend inhaled his burger and onion rings while I savored mine. The burger was cooked perfectly and juicy! I ordered medium rare. Would 10/10 get it again. The only thing that I would subtract a star for is the walk to the restroom. Since this place is a sports bar and super busy on any type of game or event night, the floors to the restroom catch the brunt of it. The stairs up to the second floor just smell awful

Right away, the vibe was giving outdoor patio but with cozy indoor energy. Super clean inside and out, and the staff was really friendly. Our waitress this morning--her name was "B"--was the sweetest. Super kind, always checking in on us and making sure we were good. If you're like me and super indecisive, I usually stalk the menu the night before. But this menu was HUGE--pages and pages. I flipped straight to the brunch section in the back (three full pages!) and landed on the Supreme Skillet: potatoes, over-easy eggs, bell peppers, ham, and sausage. It came with three tortillas of your choice--I picked corn. Taste-wise, it was good, but I wish there were bigger and more pieces of meat. Compared to other skillets I've had, this one was a little light on the protein. It was $17.99. I'd rate it a 6.5/10, but with the refried beans on the side, it bumped up to a 6.9/10. My bestie ordered the Combo Benedict with French toast sticks, and honestly...the French toast sticks were the star. Super crispy, fluffy inside, and perfect with syrup. We also got the mimosa flight--mango, strawberry, and peach. All were tasty, super cute, and very Instagram-worthy. I can totally see this place popping at night with music and drinks. That said, even in the morning with only one other couple next to us, the music was pretty loud--it was kinda hard to talk during our brunch, literally had to look at besties lips to know what she's saying. I can't even imagine nighttime volume, lol. Overall: Ambience: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Food: 3.5/5 Definitely a fun spot to try, especially if it's your first time! But def plenty better brunch food out there! Happy eats!
