13 Best Chicken Restaurants in Wilmington

“I ordered on doordash, but the food was so hot, fresh, and delicious I had to leave a Google review. My husband and I got the 8 piece dark box, mac and cheese, potato salad, and fries. The only thing I didn't like was the potato salad, but my husband absolutely loved it. Our food got here hot and fresh and we thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely be ordering again!“

“Walt's chicken has been our families favorite since 1997 when we moved to the area. We relocated but still make sure that when we visit, Walt's is a must have. The staff is so kind, with exceptional service. And as I stated, that chicken 😋 delicious!“

“I ordered the new waffle chicken sandwich that everyone has been talking about. Yes it was good. Much better than I expected. I'll order it again. The waffles is much better than their hard hamburger rolls which seem stale most of the time“

“I wish I had Pictures but we were so hungry and ate the food so fast . The chicken tenders were the most tender pieces I ever Had . They were perfectly crunchy and were so well seasoned baseline they didn’t need sauce . The wings - perfect . They were so fresh didn’t give you that weird ick you get sometimes from chicken wings . Wish we got more . The popcorn shrimp - so good and perfectly crisp . Finally the biscuit . That was a buttery biscuit with perfect consistency . No dry biscuits here . The only thing we didn’t love was the beef patty it was ok.“

“I absolutely love this place. This is my new favorite spot for anything chicken. It’s very clean inside and out . I always get the number 2 regular, and mild spice level. The owner is an amazing person. He’s extremely kind , and remembers you after your 2nd time coming. when you call in to order your food, he will have it done before 10 minutes. And that’s a Promise ! Please, if you have never tried it give it a shot. I’m sure you’ll be his next regular customer like I am .“

“My Daughter and I had the BEST lunch today! I would like to Thank Ms. Ashlie and Mr. Bob for the great service they provided us. My Daughter and I were traveling to a Doctors appointment and not from the area. After the Best Lunch we got in the car to head home. We had 2 hours on the road. I looked back at my daughter and she had a little bag of goodies from you all. She was so excited. She played the whole way home. Thank you all so much for taking a ordinarily lunch and turning it in to a super special one! Thank you!“

“The Fried Chicken (duh!) Walt's Chicken is legitimately incredible fried chicken. The Lincoln Street location, Walt's Chicken Express, run by apprentice-turned-master Larry Fletcher, transcended even the original Walt's Flavor Crisp Chicken. After spending a decade learning from the original founder, Harry Sheppard, Larry opened his own Walt's on the West Side of Wilmington. And he took everything that made Walt's legendary, added his own Master Chef expertise, and elevated the chicken to an even higher plane of existence. You will NOT leave Walt's without already craving more of their fried chicken. It's THAT good. If you've had legitimately amazing fried chicken in Texas or Georgia, and can't tolerate the greasy rubber you always get served in the Northeast, take a sigh of a relief . Walt's is the ONLY chicken shop within 200 miles of Delaware that is legitimately *on par* with the best fried chicken joints in Texas or Georgia Get the fried chicken. White or Dark. Breast or wing; thigh or leg. All of the above. (Just remember to bring back 2-3 pieces for each other person in your home. Even if they "weren't hungry" when you left, they'll be furious you didn't pick them up a 3 piece dinner box) Lastly, don't expect anything special from anything else they serve. Sides, fries, fried shrimp, dessert, whatever else. They range from "decently good" to "mediocre at best." You're not there for cornbread.“

“Me and my boyfriend we go all the time they had the best staff very friendly they done and got to know me due to me being a regular customer and the food is amazing. I used to live right down the street so I go once or twice a day all the time But now I’m coming from a different state and still love the food travel just to get it.“

“If you're looking for an amazing dining experience, look no further than Plantiful! The food is absolutely delicious, and the service is top-notch! I can't recommend them enough! Plus, their food packaging is fantastic—it really adds an extra touch to the whole experience! Don't miss out!“
