Frequently asked questions about Starbird
Starbird Foster City Reviews
Starbird is what happens when fast-food meets Silicon Valley and nature / local forward vibes. It's bright and yellow, almost giving a kindergarten vibes. And then you feel the premiumness of Shake Shack, but again, much more spaced and modern. Mix in a bit of Californian sunshine vibes. And yes, premium chicken. The chicken is definitely not your KFC greasy energy. This is seen from a completely different perspective. The entire experience makes you feel positive. The food is great but not mind blowing. And they definitely take some Asian inspirations like the okonomiyaki fries. Soda fountain features local beverage makers. And again, it feels clean and modern. The price is definitely a bit higher but again, this is a different type of fast-food dare I say. Absolutely try it out and would love to see Starbird expand beyond California.
You have to try the Japanese BBQ Bird and the Tokyo Sesame Crunch. The flavors are authentic and the execution is spot on. It’s great to see Starbird experimenting with these Japanese-inspired flavors. Highly recommended for anyone looking for something unique and delicious! 5 stars.
I love the Thai salad, but decided to try it with grilled chicken instead of the delicious fried chicken. It was great! I actually liked it more. Could taste all the flavors. Nice job! I'll be back!
Great food that came out quickly. Staff was very attentive and fixed the fountain drink machine quickly when one of the drinks was out. Would highly recommend for anyone getting their chicken sandwich fix. The Nashville chicken sandwich is my consistent go to order.
Fresh and delicious food always. Great service. Friendly and polite staff.
Best in class as far as fast food goes. Delicious chicken sandwiches, interesting options for sides, sauces, bev, and desserts. Place was also clean and well run.
We always try to swing by here when working in the area. Good food and excellent service! The sandwiches are hardy and the salads are HUGE! Also nice they have special items on the menu like a single tender. Good beverages too!
Super quick service, and everything came out perfectly. The restaurant was so clean and nice! Love the online ordering system, and that you can order just a single tender. That’s such a great idea. All the sauces are so good, my favorite it the truffle aioli!!
I love Starbird! The chicken is always flavorful, crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside. I've tried the salads, sandwich, and chicken strips, and nuggets and I can't complain about anything. Everything is delicious, so you can't go wrong when ordering. The food always comes out fast and the place is very clean.
A great place for fried chicken. Was our first time - we ordered a mix of kids meals, a Thai tender meal, and a Nashville sandwich. All the food tasted great and the coleslaw was surprisingly good! I took a photo of my meal to donate a meal via the QR on the table but I totally forgot. Would appreciate if someone can do it for me instead until I’m in the store next time :)
Really good chicken sandwiches with bacon. Great customer service with a smile 😊😁. Quick, fresh made, Tastee food. Best fried chicken sandwich I've ever had!
Best kept secret...didn't find this Gem till today thanks to my boss. Best chicken wings in the Bay Area hands down. Love the wings and different options available. I got the Garlic Parmesan bone in with blue cheese dip. Didn't need the dip they tasted amazing just as is. Got a lemonade it was super refreshing. Will come back and try the salads and the other wing flavors
I work close to this starbird location and one time when I was going for Taco Bell I decided to give them a try and I'm glad I did. First time I used their kiosk outside to place my order and it was simple. Once order is ready you'll get a text and go pick it up. You can also order online for pickup or at the cash register by the door (due to pandemic). Staff are friendly and restaurant looks clean and nice. It's right off of highway 92 and super close to 101. I've bad few chicken sandwiches and they were all really delicious and juicy. If you like some spicy food then try their Nashville Hotbird. Also their Nashville fries is pretty fire! So far I've only had their sandwiches but they also have salads, chicken tenders, tacos, and wings. All in all, starbird is one my favorite places to get my chicken fix. Definitely recommended.
Surprisingly good. Went for the Nashville style spicy chicken burger and it did not disappoint. Crispy and spicy on the outside with tender chicken on the inside. Enjoyed the soft and sweeter buns that are used. The drinks bar serves a curated original drinks lineup which was nice.
Solid choice if you like chicken-based meals. Fries and salads are also very good, and if you like spicy, definitely try the Nashville style chicken. Clean interior with friendly service, but the lines can get long during meal hours so plan ahead! Decent sized parking lot.
Great for chicken sandwich or tenders. I recently tried the garden plant based sandwich and was surprisingly tasty! We did quick pick up for dinner. There is outdoor eating area if you prefer.
The food is good quality but the chicken and fries are a little too salty. We had the Nashville Hot tenders and the Korean spicy tacos. They were both pretty good but like I said, a little too salty. I thought the fried, breaded chicken was out of place in the Korean tacos. Maybe grilled chicken is a better choice for that style. We will probably come back for another meal soon.
Reasonably priced, locally sourced, health(ier) choice of fast food. Love the BBQ chicken sandwich. The bread was just right - crispy yet not too dry. The fried chicken was juicy. The sauce was just right and not over-handedly applied. Didn't try their sodas and drink but it looks tempting. It says "Locally crafted, cane sugar sweetened, small batch beverages"...
Got the jumbo chicken nuggets, Nashville heat style. For sauces I picked the tamarind mint raita and blue cheese. The chicken was tough, the breading fell off and the "Nashville hot" was just some kind of powder that they shook on the nuggets. The tamarind sauce wasn't even sweet 😭
Ordered the Nashville hot bird with blazing spice. Tasted fine, not great. Chicken could be a lot crispier. Portion size is tiny. The sandwich is more of a slider than a sandwich. For the same price, you can get two similar sized sliders from Dave’s hot chicken, a lot crispier and tastier.
Ordering kiosk showed an error that led to us re-ordering and paying twice (we didn't know that we paid twice until we after we left). Portion size is very small for the price point. Flavor of the 2.0 is fine but underwhelming. At least, the pineapple limeade and the mango drinks are excellent, and the bathrooms are very clean. Would have scored 4 stars without the ordering incident.
noticed a thin strand of either hair or something unknown. I was about to enjoy my chicken nuggets. Kidd you not, ALWAYS inspect your food before eating or you’ll ingest something your stomach won’t like. Wasted $16 bucks on 10 nuggets.🤮
