The Chicken Rice - Menu

The restaurant offers lovely outdoor seating to enjoy your meal. I had the green curry with fish sauce, which was delicious, but the vegetarian option was quite spicy overall. The staff was friendly, and the location is very central.

Located inside the 4th street market and sharing a stall with Tuk Tuk. The Hainan chicken was very good with the pickled vegetables and ginger rice. Make sure to get their signature spicy sauce as that was very good as well. Great meal for lunch!

I've been back one other time and I do not like the steamed chicken I think next time I would try the fried chicken however the ginger rice and soup are so good! So good I added a star to my last review. I'm all about second chances I would try the fried chicken some time to see how I really feel about it. View menu

To be honest, this restaurant was quite disappointing. The food lacked spices and flavor, making it very bland. The chicken was dry and tasteless—there was hardly any seasoning, including salt. I ordered chicken over rice and pad see ew, but it felt like the dishes were designed for those who prefer very mild food without any kick.

Located at the 4th Street Market as part of Tuk Tuk Thai food. Personal OC favorite for hainen chicken. Not as dank as savoy, but not bad. Hainen chicken uses dark meat so it be juicy. Ginger scallion sauce has a lot of ginger which I like. Comes with a soup too which is nice. Rice is aight. Crispy chicken is really good and has a beer battered like breading. Can't go wrong with chicken and rice tbh. I personally come by maybe once a month or more for lunch.

This place was hard to find since it was inside a food court, 4th St Lab. I had Hainan chicken, which was moist and tasty. The sauce for it was interesting. I also had Drunken Noodle. It was a bit spicy, but not as spicy as I normally like. Good flavor, and it actually had something that I do not normally see in a Drunken Noodle dish. I don't know what it's called, but it looks like unripened or green pepper. The seating was in the common area. I had to bring my own tray to the trash bins. View menu

This place gets 1 point for being one of the few places in OC that even serves Hainan Chicken Rice, and 4 more for doing it pretty damn well. I got a combo with the Hainan Chicken and Fried Chicken and both were cooked satisfyingly well. Everything from the rice to the soup and sauces were spot on in flavor and made for one compact and delicious meal. This is easily my favorite spot now at 4th Street Market, with that sandwich spot coming in a close second. I know there are some people who just won't be satisfied until they find Hawker stand or Savoy level Hainanese Chicken, but this is OC folks. And for me, this is as good as it gets right now.

Found my new favorite local chicken place! The Chicken Rice is the best deal prices are so affordable for a huge combo portion of chicken, rice, soup, and sauces. So excited for my leftovers! I had never had anything like their seaweed soup: a light and refreshing clear broth with little pieces of seaweed that added just the right amount of texture. Highly recommend the Hat Yai fried chicken; whatever magical combination of herbs and spices used in their marinade would make Colonel Sanders jealous. Dipping the crispy chicken in their signature soybean ginger garlic sauce is the best duo since fries and ketchup. Chicken was also crispy and reheated well for the next meal. Tbh, the Hat Yai chi...

I was really looking forward to this based on all the Yelp reviews but I felt really let down. I ordered the steamed hainan chicken rice (with ginger rice. . Also ordered the Yat Hai fried chicken and their fried hainan chicken. The Yat Hai fried chicken was really tough and dry... like jerky dry. The bone-in pieces were cut into smaller pieces so it's hard to tell what part of the chicken the piece is from, especially since it was all so dark from over-frying. When biting into this, I got a shard of bone which was not enjoyable. Totally unimpressed with this. The fried hainan chicken was good. Not overly breaded. The steamed hainan chicken was all right but seemed a bit on the dryer side. I... View menu
