This was a very interesting experience. We came in for dinner on a Saturday. We chose this place because it was on our way to evening plans we had, and it's on inkind, and I love inkind. So, we arrive and it's in an industrial area and parking lot is empty. There are tables outside, but no chairs. For a moment, we thought it was closed, but the sign says open. So we go in. It's completely empty. There is a counter with 2 screens to order, and 1 cash register. There is no one behind the counter. The sign says cashier is on break, order on tablet. We try, but we couldn't pay with inKind, so we rang the button for service. The person who came out spoke very little English and was there by herself. But we got through the order. The food was EXCELLENT. The veggie plate was huge. So much food. Really tasty and fresh. Food = Amazing Ambiance = odd read more

Wildbird - It looks like they aren't open. Don't be fooled. They are. - Chicken Shop Near Me - El Segundo, California

Bad service! 1. Ordered the Tostada Bowl just for the TOSTADA. Went to pick it up and the female worker said Sorry we're out of shells and we'll be back to normal tomorrow. No offer for substitute until I complained and when she gave me the chips she gave attitude. 2. Gave me the smallest bag of chips. 3. The chicken tinga and chicken breast in the meal still have bones attached. 4. I paid extra to substitute chicken breast instead of chicken tinga but they put both in my order. The meal became inedible for me after a couple bites because I hate chicken tinga. read more

This is my first time at a Wildbird but it def will not be my last. Quick take it is delicious with some unique menu items. We both ordered the 1/4 chicken which comes with 2 sides, salsa & tortillas. First off the grilled chicken is great, nicely cooked with spices that give it a unique (not hot) flavor. The sides are def next level, i had the Spanish Rice & Green Chicken Pozole. Ok this is the best pozole I've ever had in a restaurant! I would get a big bowl of it if I could :) My Son had the Mexican Street Corn & Brocolli, I had a taste of both and YUM!!! The street corn comes off the cob in a cup which def makes it easier to eat! Since we picked it up to go I cant say much about the restaurant except that it was very clean and smelled good. The service was was quick and friendly. I love this place and the sides are so good I could just order a plate of them and be vary happy :) read more

Wildbird is a located in an unassuming area near business parks in El Segundo. There's lots of parking nearby. As other reviewers mentioned, it can seem like no one is there but you can order from the self-serve kiosk and someone from the kitchen will bring it out for you. There's also a call button if you need it. We both ordered chicken plates. Mine was the boneless breast and I got white sauce and pico. My bf got chicken tinga. We both got rice as a side and you get a huge portion of it. I also got broccoli and it was seasoned just right. My boyfriend ended up liking the chicken I got better but the chicken tinga is very flavorful and tender. There weren't any employees outside of the kitchen so you'll probably only see someone when your food is being brought out. It's great to have a healthier fast food option! read more

Wildbird is fire! I got to try this place for lunch, and it is all about bold flavors and spice! For the mains, I got to try their bone-in chicken and their chicken tinga, and for the sides, I had the sweet potatoes and kale slaw. My salsa choices were pico de gallo, salsa verde and charred tomato. Wow! Talk about flavors that deliver! The chicken tinga and their salsas all had that fiery spice. The bold kick was definitely there, but yet so delicious. Overall, everything came together really well. I enjoyed the intense flavors and the tender chicken. Every thing was so satisfying. This is definitely a spot I want to come back to if I'm craving something with heat and lots of flavor. read more

This is truly a hidden gem deep in the industrial & corporate area of El Segundo, east of Sepulveda. If you aren't looking for this place specifically, there's a good chance you won't find it unless you're looking for their flag banner on Utah St. otherwise, no obvious signage. There was only one person working the front, and she was very friendly and helpful with the menu. Also helped ring up our drinks since the drink offerings aren't completely covered on the self order kiosks. I was in a taco mood today so I went with the tacos dorados, which were three fried tacos, covered in slivered red onions, cilantro, lettuce and tomatoes with very juicy, flavorful shredded chicken inside. Also lots of side choices and a good variety of salsas. So delicious, we will definitely be back! read more

what a cute spot tucked away on a small street, lots of seating inside and outside with great natural lighting everywhere. super clean and great service. two kiosks or you can order with an employee tried their superfood ensalada for a healthy option. very worth ~ super filling and great taste, very fresh. ordered it without the jicama out of personal preference though. the corn was nice, roasted, sweet which i loved. perfect balance of each ingredient. the dressing was a little on the spicier side for me but great taste ultimately, so i just didn't use too much. took a bit of time for the food to come out but no complaints really as they got pretty busy at the same time both in store and w online orders due to lunch time rush. would love to come back and try the harvest bowl or actually get some chicken too :) read more

Ordered a quarter chicken meal and 2 extra thighs - Didn't come with any tortillas - look at those extra thighs...one has no skin on it. What is up with that....questionable quality - everything was cold read more

Stopped by for a quick lunch since my office is nearby. Ended up placing an online order for a Harvest Bowl and side of Brussels sprouts. Food was ready ahead of scheduled pickup and everything I tried was great! Harvest bowl is a great healthier option with a variety of flavors and textures that I loved. I added the Wild and House salsa. The Wild salsa definitely has a kick which I loved! The brussels sprouts are amazing as well. Nice sweet kick from the honey with the perfect amount of charred flavor. Overall would recommend this spot if you work or live in the area! I will be back. read more

Unbelievable! The employees do not speak any English and were unable to take my order. I would've loved to have eaten here as the food looks delicious and we drove all the way here, but they really need to hire cashiers that speak English. read more

This location is very close to LAX. We ate before going to the airport. The food was very healthy and I was surprise that healthy food can be made this delicious. The chicken was very tender. All the sides are fresh and delicious. Server was friendly and since the location is new, the vibe is very nice. They also have a parking lot. read more

Food was very good and filling. Would defiantly recommend to others and want to come back to try other food. I got the quarter bird with broccoli and Spanish rice as my two sides. Surprised that broccoli had a little kick of spice, since the menu didn't indicate any. I have a very low tolerance to heat, but managed to eat it. Maybe I will try the brussel sprouts next time instead read more

Not a better bird. Soooo disappointed. The driest chicken breast I have ever eaten. Could not even finish it. Rotisserie chicken is supposed to be fresh and juicy. On the plus side had the chicken been juicy and fresh the taste profile was very good if you like garlic. The brussels and the charo beans were very tasty. The kale salad was good but too spicy for me but others will like it. The sauces were very spicy but again others will love them. I gave it 2 stars because it has potential but a chick shop should have very juicy fresh chicken. Knocking it off my list read more

We came here today after our kids softball game, knowing we are getting a Wildbird close to us soon we wanted to check it out. Food was top notch! We did the half chicken and split it between the 3 of us and 3 premium sides. We loved absolutely everything. There was only one girl behind the counter and she was taking the orders and prepping the food but she killed it. People kept coming in and she did a great job of handling it all. The green sauce was delicious and has a bit of heat! The white sauce is like a ranch. The chicken was perfectly marinated & juicy and the skin was perfectly crispy and tasty. We stripped that bird to the bones! I already know what I wanna try next time ha. The brussels sprouts had a little sweetness to them, but they were cooked to the perfect consistency. The elote mixed with the beans and tomatoes, and whatever else they put in there was excellent as well. Buffalo cauliflower yummy. Next time I'll do sweet potatoes and kale salad and the macaroni salad. My husband and I and my kid all ate this together. It was a wonderful meal. I also want to try the green Agua Fresca. This is a great chain! Highly recommend! read more

I thought this place was closed because no one was here ( for a good reason) the guy behind the counter was actually useless and rude to the point where we didn't even order and left because of the customer service. Prob won't be back here lol read more

Staff is very friendly. Being our first time, he helped us out with selecting popular items. They did NOT disappoint. The chicken tinga is BOMB! Brussels sprouts, to die for, and the beans... delicious. Will definitely be back for more! It's a tad pricy, but the food and the Agua Fresca is fresh! read more

Impressed with the food.Chicken had great flavor and cooked perfectly. The side dishes were amazing. Purchase the large meal box 54$ - whole chicken with premium sides and chips and Guac enough for 4 people. Tortillas included and various salsa. Pictures of inside and large patio. Parking easy- weird spot though nothing else around besides businesses. read more

Not incredibly fair to leave a bad review when we haven't even tasted the food. The experience was beyond odd.... Showed up on a Saturday night. Place was empty (literally speaking), no one inside, no one behind the counter, etc. Struggled with order screen for 10 mins. Still absolutely no one. After maybe 15 mins, someone came from the back. We tried to place our order with him, but literally got a blank stare like we just landed from Pluto. We gave it a good other 5 mins to make it work, but got nowhere and ended up leaving. Sad because the food does actually look good. Maybe it's the type of place better suited for online delivery. read more

I'm a fan of this concept. We've had takeout twice now and I think the chicken Tinga and boneless breast market plates are great. The great definitely benefits from one or multiple of the sauces being applied as it isn't the most flavorful but very juicy. I think the sides are standouts. Mac n cheese, Brussels, buffalo cauliflower, Mac salad and Mexican sweet corn were all fantastic. Nice quick and healthy-ish delivery option here in the South Bay. read more

I was craving some taquitos/dorados and Yelp led me here. It's in the middle of some office complexes and I was worried I got trolled into seeking a ghost kitchen, but there they were and open! I'm not familiar with this chain but I can tell you the chicken dorados tacos are fantastic! Filled with juicy and seasoned meat, topped with fresh and spicy vegetables. The sauces were a perfect addition! Also their broccoli was zingy and had a kick too. Love it, not boring at all. Definitely would come here again! And thanks for the agua fresca~! read more

Wildbird - TACOS DORADOS - Chicken Shop Near Me - El Segundo, California

The chicken itself is delicious! I've tried two items on the menu, the tortilla bowl and the taquitos and I will say the chicken is the star of the show. The taquitos were nice and crispy, the three it comes with was quite satisfying. They also have a large list of sauces you can choose from to add to your dish. It is quite a hidden spot but the quality is great. read more

The food is good. However, the side portions need work. The chicken is plentiful but the sides are made for children and not adults. I ordered so I didn't visit the location in person. I'm not sure about the service and ambiance. I'm not sure I'll patronize again because of the child like side portions. read more

Wildbird - Chicken, Spanish rice and broccoli. - Chicken Shop Near Me - El Segundo, California

So, the sides were good. The chicken was okay, a bit dry. The service? That's where they fell short. We were never greeted, ordered at the tablet, then saw the one employee in the store who was in her break get up to start making our food about 5 minutes after we paid. It felt like we waited over 15 minutes for the food. All the other reviews say otherwise, that the service and food are outstanding. Not sure what happened when we visited, but the cookie crumbled a little differently for us. read more

Wild Bird is like El Pollo Loco with much better quality and bolder flavors. What really sets it apart isn't the chicken, but the side dishes. Most places, you get the side dishes because they come with it or you're trying to make a complete meal. I look forward to the side dishes at Wild Bird. They are flavorful, some spicy, and none of them bland or forgettable. read more

Mixed up our order, got something that looked soupy. The tostada salad came without lettuce, the Mexican corn had an unsavory smell and the fried tacos were chewy and flavorless. The brussel sprouts were ok if not warm. All in all, not the tasty experience we were hoping for. $44 for lunch no drinks. read more

What a wonderful 1st time experience here. Flor attended to us explaining everything so kindly. The food was good. The chicken breast a little dry, but we'll be back to try the burrito. read more

They provided our school with a generous food donation and EVERYBODY raved about the food. Incredible! Thank you! Burritos, Chicken, Brussell Sprouts, Rice, Chips...everything was to die for. Thank you! read more

I was today years old when I tasted the most flavorful chicken. And were very well traveled . When they talk about better chicken in their slogan, they mean it. Oh, and they also have the best Mexican corn ever.! read more

I tried Wildbird for the first time this week after spotting it on my way back from work on my bike. Honestly, I didn't even realize it was open to the public -- I thought it was for Kite employees only (since the company is right next door). It's nice that they have a bike rack to lock your bike up, which is super convenient. I was recovering from food poisoning and needed something light to reintroduce my gut to food, so I ordered the boneless chicken breast with rice and sweet potatoes. I was honestly surprised by how flavorful and delicious it was, especially considering how cautious I've been with my food choices lately. The service has been excellent each time I've visited, and the ambiance is really welcoming. I'm definitely glad I stopped by, and it's going to be my go-to spot for dinner when I bike home from work. read more

The restaurant had one person working. She was very nice there was a language barrier because she did not speak English. We ordered on the kiosk. Our food was good however it was cold. There was only one other person at the restaurant which should have been a clear indication that we should have left but I wanted to try the food neither pictures were tempting. Again the food was delicious I just wish it was warm and they had someone there to assist the lady she was trying her best. read more

I really love their food. If I could afford I would buy it everyday very fresh and tasty. The chicken taste organic actually .

The chicken tinga with mac salad and broccoli was delicious and the fire roasted salsa was one of the best I've ever had but $20 is too expensive for the portion I wish it was cheaper. read more

DoorDashed the Chicken Tinga plate and was pleasantly surprised by how flavorful the chicken was! I docked off one star only because it was a bit too salty for my liking but I would definitely go back to try other things on their menu. Their Wild Sauce was amazing on the food (spicy so definitely not for those with a low spice tolerance). Seems like another healthy(ish) addition to El Segundo's wide array of eateries so we definitely love that! read more

Really tasty - like if CCC and El Pollo Loco had a baby. Delicious and healthy. The chicken breast and the tacos dorados are great. So is the kale slaw. read more

Very disappointing. Customer service was non existent, and no one was behind the register when we walked in. The food had a strange aftertaste and it was very bland. I ordered the tacos (pictured above) and received a sparse amount of overcooked chicken in fried tortillas with a bunch of garnishment sprinkled on the top. The chicken was old, dry, and not fresh. My mother didn't even finish hers as she began feeling ill after a couple of bites, and I ended up stomach sick after eating my meal. This was our first experience with this chain and we will not be back. read more

I had the half bird with tortillas, street corn and sweet potatoes. Very delicious! The seasoned chips and guacamole were very good too. I was also very impressed with the hibiscus / strawberry aquafresca. The service was very polite, and they worked quickly to serve the food. The day ambiance was nicely modern and incredibly clean, and it seems like the nightly ambiance would be nice too since they have a fire pit. Great new place for latin food around the South Bay! read more
