Bentley Award Winning Fried Chicken

Light Crunch.Big California Soul.

Authentic Bentley Bowl fried chicken

Our chicken is never hidden beneath heavy breading. A lighter coating allows Bentley Bowl's signature seasoning, butcher fresh-cut chicken, and crisp, golden texture to shine in every bite. Crispy outside. Juicy inside. Built for the bowl. That's California Soul Food.

As of

Bentley Bowl is

Rooted in Soul.Raised in California.

We honor Southern traditions while embracing California's fresh ingredients, lighter approach, and bold creativity. Every Red Bowl is made fresh, built your way, and served with a California state of mind.

Fresher. Lighter. Bolder. Our way.

Less heavy, more flavor: signature seasonings, handcrafted sauces and a lighter coating that lets every bite shine.

"We aren't trying to recreate Southern soul food in California. We're defining California Soul Food."
