The Best Chicken in OC
08.26.15
Crispy, juicy rotisserie chicken, hummus, famous garlic sauce, and freshly baked pita like no other—this is Zankou Chicken. If you haven’t been to Zankou Chicken in Anaheim, you’re missing out on some of the best chicken in Orange County.
With roots in Lebanon, the Los Angeles based fast casual eatery with eight locations mostly in the LA area, is affordable, delicious and committed to high quality standards. They do not serve frozen, canned, microwaved or artificial flavored foods. Its famous chicken is delivered fresh every day, beef is high quality USDA and its pita bread is baked fresh daily, too.
Zankou’s Mediterranean menu is focused on its famous rotisserie chicken roasted in a vertical oven for more than an hour that can be served whole, or on plates with its signature hummus, fresh pita bread, tomatoes, pickled turnips and house-made garlic sauce. Its fresh pita wraps with your choice of meats, tomatoes and garlic spread are popular meals, as are Zankou’s kabob plates. Choose from chicken, tri-tip, or lule (ground beef with minced onion and parsley) served and with basmati rice, spiced onions, pickled turnips, roasted tomato, and hummus.
Sides and salads selections are vegan and include made-to-order falafel with homemade tahini, tabbouleh, tahini salad, basmati rice and mutabbal, a dip of grilled organic eggplant, fresh garlic, and tahini, topped with olive oil and paprika.
One of Zankou’s most popular and best deals is the family meal, that includes one whole chicken, only large side, one small pickles, one pita pack and two garlic sauces.
Zankou Chicken is at 2424 W Ball Road in Anaheim. 714.229.2060.
