don't eat chicken but their fish is amazing. so fresh and tasty. Very affordable, great mom and pop, casual, popular with locals.

Reading through the reviews, we just had to make a stop, since my family LOVES to eat chicken. We went on a Sunday, but it was closed, so we returned the next day. The chicken is INCREDIBLE! Moist, tasty and you get BIG servings, unlike say El Pollo Loco, where you get tiny pieces of chicken. These were monster servings... More

The grilled garlic chicken was great and the ribs were better! The man at the counter was very friendly and made us feel as if we were at a bbq with family. When we got there the place was empty but within minutes people started showing up and he knew them by name. They grill the chicken right in front... More

It's low key, great chicken, friendly service. I'm looking forward to our next visit to try the fish!!

Go for the food. Don't go for the decor, the ambience or the hip factor, because there isn't any. Go for the food. This is my secret place. The food is great, bargain prices, fast and nothing fancy. For 5 cents less than you pay for a sandwich you can get a 4-piece chicken lunch in a white plastic take-out... More

Ibviously I had to try the chicken...It was great! Seasoned to perfection and you could tell it was cared for. Everything seemed fresh and hip. This was my first time going here and I was very impressed. And will be back next year on my next family trip!

Every time i come to visit south orange county,California. The first thing my daughter says is that she wants to go and eat at surfin chicken. When we used to live here her father would always invite us for his lunch break to eat there and would also bring some home for her. she loves the flavor of the chicken.... More

Have been going to Surfin Chicken for many years and it is always the same the same, great! This is by far the best chicken you will ever have, cooked over open flames, basted with garlic and lemon, makes my mouth water just thinking about it. If you are lucky Jose will even come and sit and visit with you... More

Ok, The restaurant has been in the same location for over 25 Years. The owner is the nicest guy. The prices are great. The Chicken and Ribs are the best. I myself have been eating there for over 20 Year. The Bathroom is very clean. Not remodel , but clean.
