Raising Cane's, Chicken finger restaurant in Costa Mesa, US
Raising Cane's is a fast-casual restaurant in Costa Mesa that focuses entirely on chicken fingers served with crinkle-cut fries, buttered toast, coleslaw, and a signature sauce. The menu stays simple and intentionally limited to just a few items, allowing the kitchen to perfect each component.
The brand started in 1996 in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, with a simple philosophy of doing one thing exceptionally well. This location opened in 2015 on Harbor Boulevard as part of the chain's expansion into California.
The restaurant interior incorporates elements of Southern design and references to the brand's Louisiana origins through its decor and presentation.
The restaurant offers both drive-through and dine-in service with extended hours for convenience. Phone orders can be placed ahead at 714-540-1477 to speed up your visit.
Each serving of chicken fingers is freshly marinated and cooked to order rather than prepared in advance. This approach gives the food its distinctive taste and keeps the cooking process surprisingly hands-on for a fast-casual restaurant.
