Pechanga Fried Chicken

The Family Meal for $ 21.95 is a great deal. The quantity is there, but the food quality is not as good as we hoped.
This meal feeds 4 people and includes 8 pcs of chix, 4 biscuits, & 4 sides. I’m not a fan of the batter they use to fry their chicken in. The sides that we tried (mashed potatoes with gravy, mac n cheeese, & corn on the cob) all lacked salt. The only thing that tasted fine was their biscuits (comes with honey n butter).

Pretty darn good chicken. The chicken breast is a little over $ 3 each and is a nicely sized piece. I also had two legs ($ 2 each) and they were ok, drier than the breast. The mac and cheese was very good if you ate it quickly as the taste diminished as it cooled.
Since it’s part of the food court, the lines can get long and the service can be longer but if you time it right, you can get through the line quickly and find an empty table.
Of note on busy days, you’ll probably wind up bussing your own table and also keep an eye out for wet trays. They have a stack of them ready for you to place your order on but if you have any paper with you, don’t put it on the tray.
Hope you have a good experience like we did. Enjoy!

Didn’t have a chance to experience the food, but gave them a 1 star for the rude service received.
I was in line for about 10 minutes, once I was the next one up the girl at the register turned off the screens, and said «we’re closed». I said «seriously without a heads up» and she said «yes».
Will not be coming here again thats for sure.

Pechanga fried chicken is located in the food court. I tried the chicken again for the second time. It had been awhile since I had it, so I wanted to see if it was good. Obviously, it wasn’t phenomenal the first time, because it didn’t leave any wild and vivid memories. So, today I bought just a wing and a thigh. I wasn’t starving. I just wanted a little snack. It wasn’t good to me. It just wasn’t…okay, it was o-​k. I think…
The batter was WAY too thick. I had to peel away some of the batter and toss it, so I could get to the chicken. It was kind of bland, too. If you’re gonna have so much batter, at least be tasty! The thigh obviously came from a mutant chicken, because it was huge! I know… exciting, right? You’re thinking that you’re gonna devour the hell out of this poor little chicken. Yeah, uh… no…when you taste it, that excitement turns more into a womp… womp…womp…
Would I get it again? Probably not. I’d rather waste my calories and arterial clog on something that tastes good going down and is worth the blockage. The only thing it had going for itself was that it wasn’t greasy and the pieces were big, but what’s the joy in big pieces if the chicken isn’t good?

F*ck the tables and slots !! The fried chicken should be the main reason why people come to Pechanga !! I’m an old man and have eaten many, many fried chickens in my lifetime. But hold the press. Absolutely the best fried chicken I ever had, hands down. Keep in mind that mine was fresh and hot. Obviously, cold fried chicken from anywhere would suck.
The skin with the crust was amazingly crispy and flavorful. The chicken itself easily fell off the bone and the meat was succulent. Come here during lunch or dinner time, and you will be very impressed.
Beware, this fried chicken will make you want to slap you momma. So if you love your momma, you might not want to eat this chicken.

I didn’t think much if this place when I first saw it but when I tried it I was very impressed. There is always a long line here so make sure you get in line asap. I’ve never had cold chicken here and the sides are pretty decent. I usually get the mac and cheese but they have others as well. I’m surprised that this place isn’t open ²⁴⁄₇ because the food is very good in my opinion. The only problem is that they close around 10 or 11 also they don’t have any desserts like pecan pie or sweet potato pie.

Holy @$#*!
This place sucks so bad! I tried it once and the chicken was cold and hard. 3 months later. It was colder and harder… wtf! The reason why people eat there is cuz they dont know better. Its probably there first time.

There is a new fried chicken place at Temptation Food Walk (Pechanga Casino) right next to Pronto Italiano.
Ordered 4 pcs meal for $ 9.95.
It comes with breast, leg, thigh, wing, 1 side dish and 1 freshly baked buttermilk biscuit.
The chickens are HUGE and they gave us 5 pcs instead of 4 pcs. They are just okay; nothing special. My macaroni & cheese is not that good. The buttermilk biscuit is the only thing I like there.
3 stars!
Pechanga Fried Chicken is not too yummylicious!
