Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant - Chicken restaurant in Buena Park - 8039 Beach Blvd, USA

Okay this is the first time I've been here in about 11 years! :-) glad to know that the service and the food were still very good! The wait is a bit long but that's to be expected here in Southern California! The fried chicken is always awesome! And so are the apple pie and the boysenberry pie! We'll come back at sometime in the future! :-)

If you do nothing else on your visit to LA, you must try the fried chicken and boysenberry pie at Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant in Knott's Berry Farm. Fabulous pies, great food and famous fried chicken, this is a must stop on your list of places to visit and eat. The chicken dumpling dinner with rolls was fabulous--not overly doughed, well seasoned and a good portion. The onion rings were large, crispy and onions were fresh. Fried chicken was moist and the breading was perfectly crisped. Had the signature cocktails, boysenberry lemon drop and jalapeno rhubarb raspberry margarita. Definitely recommend both--super tasty lemon drop and the margarita is just spicy enough to be flavorful was surprisingly refreshing. If you like margaritas, you'll love this one. Finally, the dessert--if you've never had boysenberry pie, you gotta try it. Goes great with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

Absolutely Delicious! We had a party of seven and everyone enjoyed their dinner! We ordered chicken pot pies, chicken and waffles, fried chicken dinners. I'd highly recommend. The outdoor mall is quite charming and worth browsing while waiting for your table.

Loved it! We had a splendid dinner at Mrs. Knott’s Chicken Dinner restaurant. The theming of the restaurant is on point and cozy. Their chicken is truly made well and to my surprise (as I am totally usually team dark meat because most white meat I encounter is too dry and tasteless), they served the most tender and juicy white meat that was just as juicy and tasty as dark meat! In fact, in a blindfolded test, I would have assumed their white meat was dark meat! Amazing! We tried the Mrs. Knott’s Classic Fried Chicken dinner and the Chicken and Waffle. Both portions were wonderfully gigantic and we took leftovers home for another meal. If you go for dinner, the meal includes a salad, soup, side, and a slice of pie for dessert which is a great deal! The meal also comes with their complimentary biscuits with boysenberry jam which tastes like scones with jam. They came warm from the oven and were very tasty and fresh. The fried chicken was wonderfully juicy and light in flavour. The white meat was seriously so soft and moist and not stringy or dry at all! The soup I chose was a cold cherry rhubarb which was sweet, tart, and delicious that I used as a substitute for cranberry sauce. The rhubarb in it had a nice pickle like crunch and kinda tasted like cranberries in a good way. The cabbage seasoned with ham was nice because it was not too salty and tasted like healthy, boiled vegetables. The corn was just average kernel corn and the salads were standard salads. The chicken noodle soup was creamy and rich with great flavour. Loved the boysenberry theming. Tried the boysenberry lemonade and it was fruity and refreshing. The boysenberry beer was also light and refreshing. The boysenberry pie at the end was awesome. We were too full so we got it to go and ate it as a snack but it tasted like a cross between blueberry and raspberry pie. Overall, a great experience with great food. The food is not gourmet, but hearty, satisfying, and very well themed. Would highly recommend this experience at least once in a lifetime.

Food was decent tasting, portioned, and priced accordingly with theme park expectations. Service, however, was very subpar, as she never checked on us (only coming by to drop off the bill essentially). Had to chase down the server for drink refills and even a box for nearly a full plate of leftovers. Kitchen staff delivered the food and were polite and courteous. The table immediately next to us was constantly checked on, provided constant refills, and automatically offered boxes by the same server. In between, she was chatting with the bartender and two other servers and was annoyed when we got up to ask for a to-go box. This was after the peak lunch hour when it was only moderately busy. Knott's Berry Farm (the theme park itself is another story in and of itself) and especially Mrs. Knott's Famous Fried Chicken restaurant, used to have impeccable service, but sadly, it seems those days are long gone.

I don't get it. I've been wanting to try this chicken for years, and today, I finally did. I was excited because some of these reviews on here saying it's the best chicken?? Really? It had NO FLAVOR, zip, nada, zilch, no seasoning, the mashed potatoes with gravy was good, the biscuits were mushy inside like they were not cooked all the way, the knotts jelly was not sweet at all and seemed thinner for some watery reason. Soup was ok, The cake dessert WAS good, and we enjoyed the boysenberry tea was good also. The ladies' bathroom stunk sooo bad, really, really bad, ya'll need to put some air fresheners in there cause dayum!

Ok hear me out Knott's Berry Farm, that chicken dinner is far better than it has any right to be. I have eaten many biscuits in my day, I like to think I know my way around a buttermilk or a drop biscuit..... Well I went on a philosophical diatribe to my wife on the quality and perfection of the biscuits alone. With no exaggeration, I bit into one and my eyes actually filled with tears of joy... I wish I was joking...... So, Shame on you, for making all other chicken dinners pale by such a large margin, I would forever now feel uncomfortable calling anything else either chicken, or dinner ever again. I live over 1,100 miles away, and I have to live every day now knowing that there exists gravy that is so perfect it needs not a shake of salt nor pepper. I hope you understand the fundamental change in the fabric of space and time that you have created.....now get out of my sight.. before... I.... eat another chicken dinner.... Don't make me do it, because I will

Overpriced chicken but good if you're starving. It's a 3 course meal for 26+tax but for chicken that's dry and has way too much starch, it leaves a poor taste in my mouth, metaphorically and literally. Excellent service in terms of friendliness (though a little slow due to understaffing) and relatively charming atmosphere, albeit a tad bit barren in places. Plenty of spots to check out once you're in line waiting. The highlight of the meal was the buttermilk biscuits and boysenberry spread. However that's not a good thing as it demonstrates how lacking the main course was. Pretty good pie, ice cream was nice but not terribly distinct. More pie would've been the better choice.
