Frequently asked questions about Starbird
Starbird San Francisco Reviews
One of my go-to spots for a tasty salad delivery! Always fresh vegetables and their crispy chicken is so good. I definitely recommend the Green Goddess Cobb Salad, or the Thai Chicken Salad! Their salad dressings never fail. Since this a ghost kitchen, I always do delivery. Keep in mind, there is not indoor dining or real brick & mortar. So it might be a little confusing finding this place. Look for the SoMa Food Pickup on Morris.
I ordered this sandwich for pickup and it was ready 7 minutes later. It was $11.47. I got street parking, walked in, told the guy my name, and was out the door. I requested 2x lettuce and tomatoes, which they delivered on. These sandwiches are killer, the crispiness is perfect, sauce is the right amount, and bun is... Pretty well toasted. You can't go wrong
My new favorite place for salad in sf. They’re a fried chicken store but on doordash they’re called starbird salads. The vegetable tastes very fresh, chicken is flavorful, and the dressing on also pretty well made and tasty. You don’t need as much as they give you.
Salads are big and great value! Love the elote and chopped bowls

Absolutely the best chicken restaurant beats Chick-fil-A hands-down. The chicken is perfect not greasy at all. The staff is amazing. They are so helpful and friendly. They are constantly cleaning tables floors. I am amazed at how on the ball this restaurant is I will definitely be coming here frequently. I highly recommend Starbird in Walnut Creek.
Giving high praise for the manager Manny who jumped in to help out with our lost DoorDash order on a Saturday night when Manny was off duty. A dasher seemed to have grabbed our order then cancelled while on our way to us, leaving our order with future assigned dashers in limbo. Manny called us on the spot after we left a voicemail to a seemingly black hole of a phone number. He followed up multiple times, texted us and made sure we were okay. Incredible service.

Ordered through Postmates food came as ordered. My favorite was the wings Especially the spicy Seoul flavor was good. The chipotle bbq sauce was my favorite, the blue cheese sauce is watery.

The fried chicken was good but the sandwich itself was meh. Did not look like the photo on the site/menu.

If you order through doorcash, expect a lot of problems. I think they only care if you order through them directly. Missing items every single time I order through doordash . Your response is cold inanimate and unwarranted. That's the same response you give to everybody complaining here about the same problem. Just fix it Don't make me do more work
Pretty bad. Chicken was dry, fries were stone-cold. Like, cold to the point where it must've been premade & sitting because the delivery didn't take that long. Coleslaw was good tho. Worst of all was the sauce. Just super sweet & disgusting. That being said, it was affordable. So, uh, points on that I guess?

I was visiting San Francisco with my friend and I saw this place on Google maps. Turned out I couldn't find a way to get inside. The area also looks scary, the delivery guys who were on the motorcycle in the back (pick up) place look at us in a very uncomfortable way. They cover their face and stuff. We wasted 1h just to come here and got nothing, thinking that we could sit like Starbird place in San Jose. It was a disappointing trip.

Every time I have ordered, they have sent me the wrong order. Although the food is good, the preparation is horrible. I want my refund, for all the wrong food you sent. The carrots sent with wings are at least a week old.. It has a foul smell. You add fries inside the platter.. That makes the fries so soggy, it's almost inedible. Idk how you mix your spices on the wings.. One half does not even get any spice and the other half is super spicy. Who is responsible for the quality of food? Do you even have a management?
This food was soo soggy and cold. Hate to say food was not upto its hype at all. I threw all the fries they were very cold . Burger taste good but cold. Don’t do delivery.

We use to order this restaurant on door dash often and the quality has gone totally down. the last three times (different days over the course of a month) at normal hours - they have gotten our order wrong (both take out and delivery) and the quality of the food is sad. the meat of the chicken is butchered really bad and the breading has gotten too thick. i really like this brand but i have to stop giving them second, third, fourth chances when it’s such an easy to go to option. save your money and go to gotts nearby.
I’ve had good experiences in the past but tonight was flat out disappointed. I ordered a 4 piece hot tender box make it blazin style and the chicken was barely seasoned. Additionally, there were nasty pickles all over the chicken. I’ve order many times before and there have been pickles included. Is this new? It doesn’t tell you pickles are included and I absolutely hate pickles. Chicken was soggy as a result of the wet pickles sitting on top of the chicken and I only love a 8 or so min away from the ghost kitchen. Gross.
I’m giving star bird one star because they are part of the problem. I ordered from them through DoorDash, and the person who showed up was not the dasher on the app. As a single woman I have serious concerns about this practice continuing unabated. We have to demand that DoorDash, uber, Lyft, and all the other companies enact stricter controls to keep us safe. I’m also holding the business accountable because you all can also insist that these companies maintain stronger account controls.
This place is horrible. I have tried to support this place over the years after first experiencing it at SFO. However, the SF ghost kitchen is absolutely ridiculous. Almost every time there are delivery issues. What a joke, this is a delivery only location and they can’t get that right. Just ordered tonight and after waiting over an hour, tracking shows the driver on my block. I go out front of my building and no food, no sign of anyone. Check the tracking and it says delivered. Great, now what?!? Absolutely No way to contact the location. Really?!? So not only am I out $$ I now have no dinner. Totally lame, never again!!!
The food is edible. That’s about all there is to say concerning the wings. The lemon pepper had the slightest of fishy taste to them, like someone didn’t fully clean out the fryer when switching from fish to chicken. The buffalo had very little sauce on them. I ordered 12, and 4 of them were basically half-sized wings, so for all intents I only received 10. I ended up throwing half the meal away. The fries were cold. And not like lukewarm because I arrived five minutes after they were ready to pick them up. Like cold cold. Pretty disappointed in the entire meal considering all of the positive reviews. Either this was just an off night, or these poor people giving them 5 stars have never had good wings in their lives.
I’ve ordered delivery from here three times. I liked their fried chicken and sauces but the food safety is questionable. The second time I ate here I noticed the cucumber in my salad was rotten but this last time was worse. I got a bad case of food poisoning after eating their Thai chicken salad. I was vomiting all night. So be aware that the food safety here is lax. I won’t eat here again.
Placed my order early, it was ready for 25 minutes. Was told it was picked up 5 minutes before I arrived. Then had to wait another 25 minutes for a fresh order. Wings and fries came out cold. Wings look like someone squirted bbq sauce on them and not shaken. Didn’t include my carrots and celery. If I could give it zero stars I would. Stay away....
