Chicken G's

This unsuspecting late night spot is INCREDIBLE!!!Fried chicken is CRISPY, flavorful, BIG, and nongreasy!! Loved the sandwich and the loaded fries with fried chicken! The fries are well seasoned! Can't say enough about this spot! Def coming back!! There's also a vegetarian options for sandwich and Mac n Cheese!

The chicken is the star of the show. Crispy-fried without being greasy. Servings are generous- I just finished a sandwich and a side of cole slaw, and I'm not proud of myself [starts jogging in place]. Having tried both, I recommend the fried chicken over the sandwich- that beautiful, crispy chicken gets lost in soggy shredded lettuce and a very uninspired bun. And, since the bun is round and the chicken is a strip, you'll have almost as many chicken-less bites as not. It's a good lunch, though, and good for the price here in the Financial District. And, the cole slaw is quite good (if you're a cole slawer).

Stopped by here when I was in the area on a Saturday evening for a quick bite. No line and plenty of tables to sit at. We thoroughly enjoyed this tender basket and it was quite sizable as well. Crispy, freshly fried chicken with great sauces to go with it (garlic, chili, and curry). The batter was light and the chicken wasn't dry. They also serve free chai tea which is a nice bonus. Would recommend trying!

Here at Chicken G's for the first time. They only serve chicken products. I'd say the bird is expertly fried. Golden and mightily crunchy. Made fresh. I like the pictures of the food items. Makes it easy to select something, since you can see a preview. The prices, steep. I ordered the Loaded Fries, and they were certainly loaded!!With lots of great toppings. With chicken and cheese and their signature sauces. It was enough for two people, for $15. More than I was expecting to pay, but thank goodness it was large/shareable. They close pretty late. Try to come in before ten though. Before they close off the dining area and mandate that all of the orders will be to-go. Customer service left much to be desired. No big deal though. Great place! I will come in again to sample the sides.

When I ate my first few bites of my fried chicken and thought about what I'd write for this review, the word "mid" came to mind. As I kept eating....I decided this is just straight up below average.I ordered the Combo #1 that came with 1 chicken drumstick and 1 larger chicken piece, maybe a breast. It came with a Texas toast, and for my side I chose coleslaw.The fried chicken was dry as hell, and all the fried pieces fell off my chicken. There was some sort of flavor between the chicken meat and the breading that was super strange. It was overall very difficult to eat. I used a knife and nothing was working.The Texas toast was basic, not as good at Raising Cane's. The coleslaw was decent, a bit strong on the creaminess/dressing but probably the best thing I ate there.This is completely below average of any other fried chicken I've had. Jack-in-the-box, Popeye's, are way better. Walk yourself to SOMA to eat The Bird as it is eons better than Chicken G's. Service was slow too! And there were only 3 of us in the restaurant when I went.

My friends and I stumbled upon Chicken G's after the downtown SF event. If we had not done so, I would have never had these delicious fries...

I personally think Chicken G's is pretty good but not my favorite. The services okay. But they have a verity of drinks to choose from. The ambiance is okay they have an upstairs level and a downstairs level. They are open late so if you are craving fried chicken then this is a good option.

Hands down best chicken tenders that I've ever had! Crunchy tenders are my favorite, and this is crunch level 1000 + full of flavor. I love their sauces as well, especially the G sauce. The young guy at the front was also super friendly and gave great service. I've been talking about these tenders nonstop ever since! Definitely a must try!

Emotional damage. This was such a disappointment. Coworker and I stopped by a week or two ago since we've had our eyes on the fried chicken. Emotional damage.Pros:+ Juicy and crispy+ Cashier was kind enough to throw in 3 thighs versus the usual 2Cons:- Overly salty and absolutely lacking in flavorWhat We Ordered:- 4 piece comboThe combo comes with fries and mac and cheese, but I didn't make it to the mac and cheese. Thankfully, the chicken wasn't dry! What a save! They also inject or rub buffalo sauce inside the core of the chicken, which was...interesting. It wasn't seasoned well, so all we really tasted was salt.Everyone has a different idea of what great fried chicken is, so for a better understanding, I am a Vons Korean fried chicken and Capitals in Chinatown kind of fried chicken girl.Much disappoint. Not returning.

I saw the great reviews and knew I had to try this place. I also knew that portions seemed to be large, so I convinced my husband to join for a weekday lunch. There was zero line as downtown SF on weekdays is a dead-zone.We ordered a Big G with mac and cheese. Everything is made to order so it takes a little longer for them to call your number - BUT note there have a delicious chai tea on the back right of the counter - piping hot - help yourself!The sandwich was humungous, and a little messy. The crisp on the chicken was exactly what you want and the chicken was cooked expertly. The mac and cheese was good, but could have been hotter.Even splitting this meal, I was was uncomfortably full. If I go alone - I will opt for a kids chicken finger meal.The workers were very friendly for just a counter place.
