Krispi Hot Chicken

My review is more based off of the service versus the food so I will be fair and review both.First the good, the fried chicken they serve is quite possibly the best I've tried in a while. My wife's go to spot when she gets hungry and we are in the area. Great quality meat, since its hand slaughtered halal. The fry on the chicken is as they say in their title, "Krispi". I would order here all the time if they offered a delivery service.The bad. The lady in the front with the scarf over head just has a RBF. Complete attitude from the moment we walked in, but we ignored it. Everyone is entitled to those types of days. What made it worse is they close at 9pm. We placed our order at 840pm and the food got ready by 912pm. We asked if we could eat inside since my wife wasn't feeling well and it was freezing cold outside and she in a rude way said you can eat outside but we are closing inside. We understood and respected their closing time. 2 minutes later, 2 guys walk in and are waiting for an order that they possibly placed on the phone. We finished our food by 930ish. Those two guys were still waiting inside for their order. My problem is, what would have been the issue if we just ate inside, while you knew people were coming to pick up their order. It wouldn't have cost you anything and we would have cleaned up after ourselves, if there was a mess of any kind. To the lady in the front, learn to smile when people are walking into your place of business. Kindness costs you nothing.

We came for their two year anniversary and found the hospitality to be really good. Everything on their menu, besides lunch specials, were 50% off. Our bill came out to roughly $50 after discount and tip. Here are my takes on the food:1. Spicy smash burger - the burger was average, 3/5. The meat was okay but the burger did have a kick to it so I found that to be pleasant. 2. Cajun fries - their fries were fresh and the Cajun seasoning hit the spot.3. Chicken tender - I found the chicken to be on the smaller side compared to other chicken tender places but it was seasoned nicely. I only tried a bite out of the original flavor, but with a sauce, it was okay. This is a dry rub.4. Chicken leg and thigh - I did not personally have this, but was told it was good. Less salty than KFC and since you can pick your desired spice level, my party chose hot. I tried just the crumbs and found it to be pretty spicy. For the anniversary sale, the pricing was amazing. To get the amount of food we got for a little over $50 in this market is unheard of. They do serve hand slaughtered halal meat.

I was on a work trip and I was looking for a place to eat dinner. I found Krispi Hot Chicken on yelp. I read reviews and decided to go to this restaurant. I entered the restaurant and was greeted by the staff. I ordered Krispi loaded fries and garlic bread. The fries came with seasoned fries, coleslaw, pickles, fried chicken and their house sauce. The fries were wonderful and the taste was magnificent. The garlic bread was fresh and toasted to perfection. The ambiance is very customer friendly and the wait for the food is not long. A great place to go for chicken sandwich, fries or chicken by itself.

Our go-to fried chicken place! The chicken is crispy, flavorful, and available in different spice levels--all at a good price. Plus, they use Zabihah Halal chicken. When ordering takeout, it's always a good idea to call ahead, as the fried chicken takes about 15 minutes to be ready.

Chicken was great, pick your heat level. Highly recommend the Cajun fries. $10 lunch special is hard to beat.

mayson was such a good worker he helped me out and gave me good service and he should have a raise good worker

I've gotten this three times idk why I don't have any pictures but I love it. It is so so good. The chicken is so Krispy and hot but yet so tender and juicy on inside. I also love the fries, they're seasoned so well and the perfect texture. The onions rings are amazing too and I love the sauce. This place is so yummy

If I have to be honest, a solid fried chicken place. And it's halal too. Owner/worker I met was very nice and hospitable. I wanted a shawarma when I came in but apparently those are seasonal so the menu is ever changing. Best part of this place it's halal chicken. Don't worry about pork here Alhamdulillah. To the food: fried chicken sandwich was again solid. Price, size, all good. Do I wish the chicken to be bigger in the sandwich? Of course but I'm a fatty so I'm glad it isn't. Slaw, sauce and pickles arent missing and absolutely delicious with the HOT chicken. Be careful of the spice level you pick, they are spicy! The fries solid. Battered fries are better imo. He definitely seasons well and there are other options for it too. Crispy and delicious.Out of 10, I'd give the place high 7 to low 8. Definitely beats Dave's for being a smaller mom pop like place.Definitely gotta come back for the shawarma and awesome lunch specials

This place is amazing.Most delicious lemon pepper wings I've ever had. I will say that i had to wait a while, but it was well worth it. Definitely planning on coming back and placing my order ahead of time and making it a large order haha

Was in the Tustin area and hungry for a late lunch. Maps showed several local joints in the area and Krispi Hot Chicken resonated with my hunger pangs.Tucked in the corner of a small strip mall, I walked into a very clean seating area and a pleasant face behind the counter.Ordering was easy from the simple, readable menu board. Chicken tenders, cole slaw, a slice of garlic bread all topped off with a Diet Coke were my selections.Every thing is made to order here, so a brief wait was no issue. Upon arrival, the fragrance of three, steaming hot chicken tenders wafted up at me. On the side sits a generous portion of cole slaw and a toasty slice of garlic bread. So far so good!They aren't kidding with the word "Hot" in their name. Freshly fried tenders were too hot to touch and looked amazing! Though they'll prepare your chicken as spicy hot as you like, I asked for mine plain with no spice added. They even have a Scoville chart at the register to let you know your spicy hot options.A sip of Diet Coke and the first, crispy, crunchy and HOT bite was taken. The batter is light and compliments the juicy chicken tender very well. The second, third and remaining bites all matched the first.This truly is Krispi Hot Chicken!The creamy cole slaw was flavorful and offered a nice cooling effect after the hot chicken tender bites. I do prefer my creamy cole slaw a bit creamier, this really hit the spot. Score!So if you find yourself hungry in Tustin, California, give Krispi Hot Chicken a try! Wings, tenders, legs and thighs! You'll be glad you did! I sure am!
