Placed an order by phone for pick up. The order was 20 pcs family meal with 3 large sides. More like small side but you pay for large. $60 + for that 20 PC chicken on the website the cost is $42 that is an outdated amount. That being said, the chicken is worth it. Crunchy, juicy and not overly salted. Mashed potatoes and gravy, coleslaw, macaroni salad all very fresh and delicious. I recommend this establishment but please see for yourself and let us know your review. Friendly staff and great cooks. Cooked the chicken to perfection.

Chicken was good, better than KFC. I don’t know if it tastes like the Pioneer i remember from my childhood, it’s been too long. The orange bang tastes like I remember, and the corn is the same mediocre corn I remember- good memories!
Chicken was still crisp and delicious after a 45 minute drive. If it doesn’t taste like it did in the old days, it’s better.
I only wish we had the old sunset blvd location back now!

This is my first time coming to Pioneer Chicken in a long time more than forty years, I have try their chicken I remember it was golden brown and crispy when taking a bite. They are only two Pioneer chicken restaurant left one of them is Boyle Heights and this one that my wife and I are at is in Bell Garden. When we stepping into Pioneer Chicken you go back to Pioneer Chicken in the 80’s it hasn’t changed it looks the same can I remember.

The menu looks the same but the prices went up it’s not 80’s prices. We were looking at the menu and decided what to order we decided order a three piece meal with two side on the side we ask for potato salad and mashed potatoe and also including a biscuit. Then my wife wanna get a fried fish she remember get them years ago.

We waited for our number to be called then we notice more people were coming in to the restaurant and ordering Pioneer Chicken famous crispy golden brown chicken. They call our number then I went to pick up our meal,the chicken looks golden brown delicious. Took a bite of the chicken one bite I can hear that crunch biting in the chicken it was tender and juicy and batter was crispy and golden brown it was so good.

My wife said the chicken was juicy and tender and that crunch that she remember then my fish took a bite of the fried fish it was gold brown and really good. I took bite of the potato salad it was good and then the mashed potatoe it was so good and I can taste the chicken gravy it was good. The biscuit was good but I add it some of gravy to the biscuit it add more flavor that was mind blowing.

Overall the staff was really friendly and the restaurants always look clean we need to come back again.

Nostalgic but give it up if the fryers are frying chicken LIVERS & GIZZARDS ARE OUT OF BUSSINESS! Forget about the advertised CORN ON THE COB MACHINE SHUT DOWN. They use to carry chocolate & strawberry shortcake, not now.

The memories of my childhood. The chicken was crispy, the meat was tender. We went through the drive-thru, service was good. The employee was talkative and had good energy. We went to the one in Bell Gardens.

Pioneer Chicken is still awesome! I love the batter. This is the only fried chicken that tastes good even cold. There is always a line here since there are only 2 Pioneer Chicken Restaurants left. I drove 35 miles here and wasn’t disappointed.

When I’m in the area I like to pick up some nostalgic chicken. It’s lost some of It’s luster but good. Love the old look still

I enjoyed the warm and nice atmosphere of Pioneer Chicken. The chicken, however, was severely drenched in oil. There was so much grease that it completely masked the seasoning, making it impossible to taste any flavor besides fat. the side dishes were great! They were a definite highlight of the meal.

This was the best fried chicken that I’ve had in a while. It was so crispy and juicy. The biscuits were so soft and melted in your mouth. I was expecting brown gravy for the mash potatoes, but when we received the chicken gravy, it was a wonderful surprise and tasted great as a dipping sauce. Will be back!! Thank you for the great experience
