Reviews for Jay Bird's Chicken in Orange, CA
The chicken itself was good. Crunchy on the outside, juicy on the inside. The spice levels aren't very spicy for those with... moderate heat tolerance. The medium heat felt more like a mild to me. The comeback sauce is always good. The mac and cheese wasvery liquidy though... it's not quite my style and it's also not very cheesy. The waffle (not pictured), tasted more likepancakes.. in the shape of a waffle. So I suppose they use pancake batter, which is fine but waffle batter typically containsless water. Would maybe go back again for the chicken. But I wouldn't seek this out and would try the other sides since I'm notquite a fan of the sides I've tried so far. Read more
If you like Spicy burgers beware this place will ruin it for you???? and you may not like the other 'spicy burgers' out there. I... tried the hot version of the burgers and they are really good. As I said other burger joints just call it spicy and I was kindof managing with that. But now as I have tasted here, spicy ones at Chicafila or Wendy's etc won't come near. Read more
The chicken was very good and the right amount of spice. Lots of levels of heat to choose from. The sides are good also. ... Service was a little slow, but that seems to be true at many places these days. (Feb. 2022). Still a labor shortage. I'llreserve judgement on that issue for a while. Good outdoor seating shared with other fast food places. Read more
I think I'm in love !!!! I haven't had a fried chicken sandwich this good since I was in New Orleans. Cooked to perfection... variations of spices and sauces to many even try to explain. Just go and try it !!!! Read more
You need to go here - maybe I was just hungry but OMG the Chopped was sooo good. It was plenty for one person. It?s a... combination of slaw, chopped pickles, chopped buffalo chicken tender with choice of heat level. I went with medium and it wasspicy (in a good way). Have your drink ready. Looking forward to trying other items. Price was decent too. Lots of indoor andoutdoor seating. Read more
First time at Jay Bird's was amazing! The staff were very helpful describing the menu options so I could make a decision on what... to try! The chicken was juicy and tender. The spices and breading tasted excellent. I went with the medium heat so I could tasteboth the chicken and the spices. I was definitely impressed and I will be back soon for the next level of heat!

Not a bad choice if you are in the mood for a good piece of chicken with some of that Louisiana flare. The chicken was great... and so were the fries and Mac and cheese. The spicy levels were not really reflective of real spice like howls are but if youdon't fancy yourself a spice enthusiast, this place is a great spot. Also, skip the coleslaw if you don't want a mess on yourhands, literally. Read more
Wow this was good!! Got the sandwich with medium heat and it was pretty spicy. Great flavor tho. Definitely coming back...
