Get to this place! The food is amazing! Eli has such a passion for food!
If you are looking for a quick little meal this is it. Pimpin Chkn has some pretty tasty snacks. The chicken is crispy and very flavorful.
I’ve been waiting to try pimpin chicken for a while. I’m always working or something is coming up. I hit up their spot at the Oakland Farmers Market today. I got the three piece chicken tenders with slaw and the mash balls. Best fried chicken I’ve had since moving to the Bay Area a few months ago. Crispy . Tender . Seasoned . Sauce . Sides . That’s the best way I’ve got to do a *chefs kiss* emoji. Do not miss it. They are in a cool loft location on Friday nights. Where they do drinks etc. The food is perfection And they say the vibe is good. Add them on Instagram. Oakland/Bay Area local business. Don’t miss it!
Like gramma used to make! Perfectly tender on the inside, perfectly seasoned and crispy on the outside. Falls apart and melts in your mouth. We had the chicken tenders combo with kale salad. The kale salad was not what you might think, just try it. Hands down, my new favorite fried chicken and kale salad. Beautiful presentation and you can tell the team is very meticulous and proud of making excellent food. Thank you!!
We love PIMPIN CHKN! Eli has a real passion for his food and you can taste it in every bite!
This is the absolute best fried chicken I’ve ever had. I’m definitely coming back for more!!
I've had a lot of fried chicken in my day, but Pimpin Chkn is something else. Every ingredient, short of raising the chickens, is made from scratch. Homemade buns, saw, breading, it's all stellar. Incredible crunch, super moist chicken, and just a perfect combination of textures and flavors. Plus that hot sauce is to die for. Don't sleep on this one.
I am staunchly skeptical of new chicken sandwich pop ups and the recent trend of them existing - not because I don’t like them, quite the opposite - because I love them. I was in Oakland running errands and saw that Pimpn Chicken would be available, so I thought I’d give it a try. YOU GUYS. I never do google reviews but I just had to because I am telling you - the breading on this chicken is other worldly. To so accurately dial in the perfect combo of sauce, impeccably prepared chicken, slaw-crunch and an excellent bun...I do not have the words. This may be the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever eaten. Do whatever you need to do you some. I live in Sacramento and I will definitely be making frequent excuses to travel to Oakland just for more.
Best fried chicken sandwich in town! Everything is home made!!! Sells out quick, be sure to pre order! Fried pic-kels on Friday’s!???? My new favorite
