This is literally one of the best chicken sandwiches I’ll ever have. I’m sad I’ll never be able to have it again as the amount of sesame they use triggered my allergy. I love sesame items and usually have no issue with them but it was one of the most severe food allergy reactions I’ve ever had so far. Their matcha flan and yuzu cheesecake are bomb too just wish the portions of both were bigger. I highly recommend this spot to anyone at my place of work. 10/10 highly recommend.

Fried chicken was flavorful with orange sauce and garlic miso powder. It was a bit on the dry side but it tasted good with the salad and its creamy dressing. Love love the green onion oil tofu. Refreshing!

Great little spot with good selection. Chicken was tasty. The sandwich is massive and very unwieldy though. I also wish the slaw had a little more flavor/seasoning. The tots were pretty good.

Everything was delicious and the food came out pretty quick and very fresh. Only issue was that we ordered too much! The chicken is whole skinless boneless thighs so a 4 piece is good for one person unless you’re starving then get an 8 piece. Service Dine in Meal type Dinner Price per person $20–30

This place is indeed a legit fried chicken place. The karaage style fried chicken came in big pieces, so they are crispy from outside and juicy inside. There are many options for sauces and dried seasonings. I forgot what we tried but it was great. The spot is also cool with their own alcohol as well. Cool vibe and great food. I would love to come back and eat again. Service Dine in Meal type Lunch Price per person $10–20

We were in Oakland for a concert at the Fox Theater and needed someplace to grab a quick dinner before the show. As we pulled up to park on our way to a Mexican restaurant, I spotted two dudes eating on a park bench. They highly recommended Aburaya. We tried our original place, but they were backed up! We will be back there at a later date! Aburaya specializes in Japanese Fried Chicken if a high quality that is boneless and taste nothing like the Colonel’s! There are a variety of dishes to choose from, mostly with 3-4 pieces of chicken combined with rice and or veggies. My daughter went with the rice bowl which she enjoyed. I went with the Nanban which was essentially a nice mix of greens with tomatoes slices, pickled veggies and 3 pieces of chicken. It was very tasty and nutritious. I recommend you ask for additional sauce/dressing on the side for additional flavor! We also tried their version of Mexican street corn which was yummy! We will be back!

Excellent selection of Japanese style fried chicken, with many different sauces to choose from. The food was very filling, and the chicken was cooked well done. I would like to try out some more of the sauces over time. We also got steamed Broccoli and that was great too - not too soft, not too hard with a nice delicate sauce on it. In the store they have a superb selection of beers and sake to accompany your take-out order. You can even buy Aburaya themed merchandise as well.

12-30-20: Ordered the tater tots, cauliflower, tofu and fried chicken to go. Everything was super delicious. The tater tots had a delicious BBQ sauce that had a nice kick. The cauliflower was spiced perfectly. The fried tofu hit the spot. Their signature chicken dish met my high expectations! Will definitely be back for more delicious food. I would order everything again because it was so good. But I am dying to try the vegan item (even though I am clearly not vegan). 😀

Came here for dinner last night… and now it’s going to be my go to place!! Everything was absolutely delicious and came out quick and piping hot. We ordered the garlic miso and the shichimi chicken, as well as the fried vegetable hearts, edamame, and jalapeños. I wish the jalapeños had some seasoning or even a different sauce, rather than the miso ranch that comes with the chicken (which was really good! But it’d be nice to have other options). It was really affordable for the quality and quantity of what you get - 4 chicken pieces each were plenty for us. Highly recommend!!

What the reviewers say is true. Aburaya really knows how to make moist tasty chicken. According to my family, the poke bowl was full of texture and fresh soft tuna. The tator tots were fried perfectly, nice and golden brown. Their prices are very reasonable. However, the place is quite small with limited seating. They also have another location 2 blocks away for to-go orders. It may be difficult to find street parking, but I would definitely come back again for more yummy food.
