    The bomb fries are a must. Not only will you feel fulfilled, but you will also be satisfied! The servers are diligent and good at explaining what I'm getting, as well as what else is good. I would recommend the chicken sandwich, however it still leaves you wanting more because it isn't as fulfilling as the "fries bomb." The place is spacious and clean an easy spot to have a gathering with friends.

    Always good and consistent with your order. Everything is freshly made and the staff always greets you with a smile! My only problem is....figuring out the kiosks'

    Great service and food :) Been coming here. Always good. I accidentally ordered way too many sauces and they were really reasonable about the refund.

    This was my go to place for chicken tenders until I received a French fry with a metal shard fried in it... Reached out to the restaurant in regards to this but never heard back from management or the owner. Never again...

    They have a delicious crispy fried chicken sandwich here. The chicken sandwich is very large and well seasoned. The brioche bun is nice. The spicy option is also pretty good if you're down for some heat. Ambiance is average with standard casual seating inside and outside.

    It's shame I have to update my review of Zach's chicken. The pain is similar to being a Disney or Nintendo fan and recognizing the greed and lack of respect for their customers as the rose colored glasses fade away. For the last few months Zach's has been on a steady decline all acclimating in my most recent experience on 9/1/2025. As per usual an iPad takes your order. I tried to order at the register before and was redirected to the glowing screen. As per usual it ask for a 20% tip. Whatever I'm here for the food not the service. As long as I get my food I'll be happy..... they forgot my girlfriend's order. She had to come up and ask for her food which was ready they just never called the order. At this point both our sandwiches are less than fresh but I can over look that, the women running the "customer service" i dont know what she does since she doesn't take orders and forgets to call them out when they're ready is behind the counter shooting the shit. I can overlook that too. WHAT I CANNOT OVERLOOK is the god awful, food poisoning this meal gave me and my girlfriend. It's a damn shame I used to like Zach's chicken. But it's obvious that Zach's chicken doesn't give a cluck about you or me.

    Clean inside with good customer service so no worries there.. shared space with Pita Pita so if someone in your group doesn't want chicken maybe Mediterranean is more to their liking? Parking is plentiful and there is outdoor seating. The chicken is good and the French fries are great. I didn't get my drink with my to go order which I blanked on until I was a mile away... arrrggghhhh! So frustrating...

    Stopped for a quick lunch. Ordered a Zach's Original on a brioche bun, at heat 3 (out of 4). I asked if they had coleslaw, said "yes", so I ordered that too. Turned out it's "kaleskaw", not coleslaw. The two tenders on the sandwich were thick, juicy, and tasty; heat level of 3 was actually pretty tame. The mistaken 'slaw turned out to be a good one - the first time I've eaten kale a d actually enjoyed it!

    J&G Fried Chicken is one of the better Taiwanese fried chicken spots in Irvine. The popcorn chicken…read morewas super crispy on the outside while still juicy inside, and the seasoning had that perfect savory Taiwanese flavor. The oyster mushrooms were also surprisingly good -- crispy, light, and addictive. The staff was friendly, service was quick, and the outdoor seating made it a nice casual place to hang out. Portions were solid for the price too. Definitely a great late-night snack spot if you're craving Taiwanese street food vibes. Will be coming back to try more items on the menu!

    good but not great. it comes crispy but if the box comes closed (which it did for me) do be aware…read morethat the steam will soften the crisp if you aren't eating it right away. also remember to grab a utensil into the bag before you leave since they didn't give me any or tell me to get any. it didn't taste like other Taiwanese popcorn chicken i've had, more like a western style especially the sauce. the chicken is super juicy though and it was seasoned okay. for the price, the quantity wasn't much, and it also took pretty long to be ready even for the small box. also even more disappointed to see that they use AI to automate responses to all their yelp reviews and presumably don't take in the feedback...probably this review too...?
