    • Q:

      Are all of their chicken dishes spicy? I can't do any spices but their menu sounds like they have tasty chicken.

      A:

      They all come non-spicy but you can request they make any dish spicy. Great flavor both ways!

      That chicken really is kickin, the tea is phenomenal too. The staff was incredibly friendly. The decorum is enjoyable, especially if you're a Disney/marvel fan. 10/10 would chicken again.

      Kickin Chicken is one of my favorite places to eat! The food itself is delicious, well-seasoned, and filling. My favorite two dishes are the chicken sandwich and the chicken katsu. Be warned! These are VERY generous portion sizes. The price may seem expensive, but it is well worth the quality and quantity of food you will receive. Whatever you get, make sure that you get a side of the fried rice as well.

      The food is delicious, but what stands out the most about this place is the customer service. You are always immediately greeted with a smile and hello upon entering. They are attentive to your order and needs. They always bring the food to you at your table and they even come around afterwards with boxes! This place has my patronage for years to come due to how well they treat their customers.

      What a great group of people when you walk in. You're instantly greeted with a smile and a friendly "hello" which could easily brighten your day. The staff here are extremely nice and ready to help.

      We happened to catch them after normal lunch hours so it wasn't really busy. There were about 10 other people eating lunch and a few open tables. I can imagine that their lunch rush fills a lot of the chairs.

      The tenders are big, juicy, and packed full of flavor. Fries were cooked to a good crisp, just the way that I like it. Food took about 10 minutes to come out after we ordered and that's pretty good knowing that everything is made to order here and they bring it to your table.

      Next time I'm in the area, I want to come back and give a few other items on the menu a try. It was the charm and hospitality of the staff that drives me to support this business. Keep doing your thing Kickin Chicken!

      Kickin Chicken was recommended by a friend to try out in the Lakewood area, and as someone who loves fried chicken in all it's forms - I definitely wanted to check this place out! We went on a Thursday around noon, where it wasn't too busy and we were able to get our orders placed immediately.

      To note, parking is quite difficult at the restaurant - spaces are very limited and fill up fast, as Kickin Chicken shares parking spaces with other small business in the area. I personally had some trouble finding a place to park when I visited, and I would try and get there a little bit earlier to find a spot. Ambiance is fast casual, as the restaurant is self-service, you order at the cashier and you can pick any available table to sit at, and you also bus your own table after you are finished.

      I got the chicken kastsu for $13.25, which I thought was an alright deal for the amount of food you get, as I personally would have preferred a bigger portion. I noticed that chicken tenders or the chicken and waffles looked a bit more generous with the same price, so I'll probably give those a try the next time I'm in Lakewood. But otherwise, the flavor is pretty solid! Each of the components of this entree is tasty. The chicken is sauced and seasoned well, and the texture is nice and crispy. The fried rice has a complex flavor, sort of like a garlic and smoked flavor that is pleasing. The corn is soft and the sauce is slightly tangy and provides a nice acidity to the decadent chicken.

      I like that the menu at Kickin Chicken is pretty straightforward and you come to this restaurant knowing exactly what to expect. The flavors are pretty solid and I would try and order a bit more the next time I come around. But I would definitely revisit Kickin Chicken to try their other interesting options!

      So amazing! The 3 tenders were so good we all had to get the same thing, and wow wasn't let down at all.

      We had leftovers too cause the chicken strips are super fulfilling and I loved the value you get for the prices they have. The chicken is all over $11.50 but so worth it for the amazing flavoring and seasoning.

      The employees here are also super kind and friendly and get the food out promptly! Will be coming back and so dangerous that I now live so close to this place, will definitely be gaining weight thanks to this place

      3 tenders!

      I tried this place a couple years ago and then tried again last month. I am kicking myself for not realizing how incredible the chicken tenders are. It's so good! The cashiers are kind and make recommendations as needed! The restaurant was clean and had ample seating. Tons of pick up orders.

      Honestly, I was a little meh about going to "another chicken place" in denver.
      I am grateful my friend gave me the strong arm to go.
      THE BEST WAFFLE I HAVE HAD!
      Crispy, soft, and with bubbles.
      A little spicy, a lot amazing.
      The service was impeccable.
      Street corn... perfect
      Chicken thighs tender and crispy.
      This place is worth it.
      It's not just another chicken place.. it's better.

      I THOUGHT GOOD ASIAN FUSION FOOD WAS A LOST CAUSE IN LAKEWOOD BUT I THOUGHT WRONG. This is a Vietnamese inspired fried chicken sandwich spot that took over that old Sunday. I have to say, their friend chicken and fried chicken sandwiches can compete with the awesome Asian fusion ones found in the California food scene.

      I highly recommend the chicken sandwich and the coleslaw. It's not your average coleslaw, it's way better! This is another small local Asian business that definitely deserves the love.

      Good not great for the price. Lot of different opinions on this spot, some friends love it, others hate it. I would say it wasn't amazing but this was my first time eating there.
