Reviews
For the service, I think it’s kind of like self-service.
I tried the Chiko’s at DuPont and loved it! I had the lamb there, among other dishes, and it was delicious. I tried the same dish here and had a very different experience. There was very little lamb in the bowl and the sauce was good, but not as flavorable. I don’t know what the discrepancy is, but I would not recommend this location. Chicko’s? Yes; this location? No.
Luckily my homeboy and I stumbled upon this spot and really enjoyed it. If you’re looking for fine dining then this is not the place for you.
It’s got a fun chill vibe, the food/drinks are in fact very tasty and the manager Jesus was very kind and accommodating as well.
He made awesome recommendations for us to try on our first visit. I am looking forward to coming back to that location specifically.
We placed an order via DoorDash about 30 minutes before arriving. From the moment we walked in, the staff was rude and unprofessional toward my daughter. We know the menu well, but what we received wasn’t what we normally pay for. The menu online shows whole chicken wings, but instead we were given tiny “party wings” smothered in orange chicken sauce when we had actually ordered spicy soy glaze. On top of that, they tried to overcharge us $2 for “spicy sauce,” a charge that doesn’t exist on the menu. It really felt like someone was just making up prices to pocket extra money.
The rice portion was insultingly small, barely enough for a toddler, and the food quality did not reflect the prices being charged. The chicken smelled burnt, was overcooked, stuck together, and tasted charred even though I never requested charbroiled wings, in fact, I didn’t request party wings at all. Bland, nasty, and already smelling off, I couldn’t even finish one bite before throwing it away. To make it worse, it came in a heavy, soggy container that made the whole meal even less appetizing. The rice was decent but nowhere near the quality we expect from Chiko.
What really turned this from disappointing to alarming was the behavior of the staff. They were laughing, fooling around, and making inappropriate remarks in Spanish, assuming we wouldn’t understand. My daughter, who is multilingual (including Spanish), understood every word. She is disabled, and the way they joked about her was cruel and degrading. She kept her composure with grace, but no customer should have to experience that.
Even worse, the same employee who smelled as though he hadn’t bathed in years was the one preparing food. He used the same dirty glove to scoop rice into a tiny container. Gloves are supposed to be changed between tasks to prevent cross-contamination and food allergies, basic food safety 101, but that clearly didn’t happen. Based on the smell and how careless he was, I doubt that glove had been changed in hours.
We even had to drive back after they messed up the DoorDash order, only to be met with the same dismissive and unprofessional behavior. Clearly, management does not care, because these aren’t small mistakes, they’re repeated patterns. After coming home, I checked other recent reviews and found reports of food poisoning and diarrhea. Now I’m literally afraid to eat what we brought home.
This location is unsafe, disrespectful, and poorly managed. Overcharging customers, serving the wrong food, ignoring hygiene, and mocking people with disabilities is unacceptable. Management needs to step in immediately before this becomes an even bigger problem.
We will definitely stick to our original Chiko location from now on. This experience is exactly why it’s better to just cook at home, at least then you know the food is safe, clean, and handled with care.
