Locally Owned and Operated

“My experience with Chick-fil-A has been so fulfilling over the past few years, and I’m grateful to continue growing with the brand in the place my family and I call home,” said Choe. “We are excited to welcome the community into our new Daly City restaurant, and we look forward to providing them with a remarkable dining experience.”
