Taiwanese popcorn chicken in culver plaza closed.

Thought they were doing good business… apparently not good enough to survive in Irvine. RIP.

Oh nice. It wasn't open yet when we ate at Dizzy Bird next to it last week (another social media trender).

Did you try it?

I tired today - not superior to Taiwanese popcorn chicken… has some flavor and limited menu during soft opening

$9 for 2 pieces of chicken...!

IMO Taiwanese style popcorn chicken & chicken filet is actually better served with rice due to the heavier seasoning. They should consider selling fried chicken bentos.

I tried Dizzy bird last weekend. I was going to the spectrum to take my daughter shopping so i figured i would order something online and pick it up to eat at home. I got the spicy wrap - it was delicious. If there was one at the marketplace I would get takeout there a lot.

Dizzy Bird was pretty good... wasn't worth the line we waited in though... and pricey.

It's funny how they are owned by the place that was there before Falasophy but that didn't do as well.

When I signed up on the dizzy bird website to do the online order I got an email from the parent company - they also own Craft/smoke & fire. Whole the wrap was very good at dizzy bird there is Conway I would wait in line for it. Just order online to go.
