50 Best Chicken Restaurants near Virginia Gardens

“Quick Service and & Friendly Employees 😀“

“CM Chicken has become one of my go-to spots when I’m craving fried chicken and want something a little different from the usual fast food options.

On this visit, I ordered the garlic soy chicken tenders with sweet potato fries and a Milky. It turned out to be a tasty and satisfying combination. The sweet potato fries were warm, crispy, and the portion size was more than enough. The chicken tenders were also generous and filling. It was my first time trying the garlic soy flavor, and I’m glad I did. The garlic taste was noticeable without being overpowering, which made it easy to enjoy every bite.

The restaurant itself is small, but it’s clean, organized, and welcoming. The staff has always been friendly during my visits. While you wait for your food, they usually have Korean music videos and K-pop playing on the TV, which adds a fun touch to the atmosphere. Service is efficient, and my food has never taken very long to come out.

For parking, I recommend checking the side of the plaza along NE 13th Avenue, next to the liquor store. There’s a colorful musician mural on the wall, and there are a handful of parking spaces there. Somehow, during the three or four times I’ve visited, I’ve always managed to find a spot.

Overall, I recommend CM Chicken. The food is consistently satisfying, the portions are generous, and it’s a reliable place to visit when you’re in the mood for fried chicken or want to try something a little different. 🍗🥤🎵“

“MUY BUENA 👌 ATENCIÓN RÁPIDO Y LIMPIO“

“Highly recommended!I want to congratulate the new manager for doing an amazing job transforming this place into something truly wonderful. You can really feel the difference. I actually come here almost every day during my lunch break because I enjoy it that much.
From the cashier, to the servers, to the cooks, and even the staff who clean the tables—everyone treats me with kindness and respect. They make me feel better than at home. The service is always consistent, warm, and professional.
Top-quality experience every time. Highly recommended!“

“I came with my partner on a busy Friday night and the food and the attention was still great! The person at the register came to check on us and came to give us our food at our table, apologizing for the wait time. We greatly appreciate the attention to detail, the delicious food and for the wonderful staff, we'll definitely be back! P.S. their honey garlic sauce is AMAZING!!!“

“I order food through door dash online and they only gave me part of my order. They don't take calls and their fries are plain and stale. I don't recommend this place and if you do order you need to pick it up and check your bag.“

“The friendly service and great tasting healthy food is AMAZING 😉“

“A mi me gusta mucho Chick-Fil -A gracias para los que comen ahí muy Agradecida“

“It could easily be the best Venezuelan Rotisserie Chicken in town. Flavor will take you back home. Great costumer service. Recommended 100%.“

“It’s been about a week since we first ate at this Dave’s and the only reason I am even writing this review is because my 3 year old daughter won’t stop talking about her friend “Kira” (hope I’m spelling that right). She was so amazing, kind and her patience was beyond words. Our first time there, she gave my daughter 3d glasses to look at the art and had full Convos with her. She is very kind and was cleaning/straightening the store while she had down time. I didn’t see her stand still once. She needs a raise.“

“Marieli and William have outstanding Customer service. The store in clean and the food is delish. I will absolutely be going back.“

“ACTUALLY so delicious. I got the OG sando made spicy. highly recommend!! crunchy, juicy, and pairs perfectly with their drinks. I got the yuzu lemonade which was a little sweet and tart! loved it! I also sampled both slushies and decided the coconut one was my fave. it's the perfect treat! 100% coming back!“

“Well, Chick-fil-A (CFA), IMO, has been the top of the fast food restaurants. Their employees are well trained. They seemed to know what to do in several situations. My orders rarely are wrong. So if I have to eat fast food and one is close by, I would pick CFA.“

“Very disappointed that they have not included one of the most popular sandwiches, chicken salad. It’s a customer favorite at other locations.“

“The food is fresh, flavorful, and generously portioned, especially the rotisserie chicken and lomo saltado. All the staff members are very nice and professional. Isbel is very friendly. I highly recommend this place. I highly recommend this place.“

“good production of getting people through drive thru“

“The flavor … oh the flavor. Their cuisine is prestige! We had the Jones n’ Hot Chicken sandwich which was so full of flavor with a kick of just right amount of spice; the jalapeño fries were the bomb and last but definitely not least the sweet potato biscuit is to die for! These biscuits melt in your mouth. So good, I had to bring some back to Houston with me. I highly recommend Chick N’ Jones you won’t be disappointed.“

“Today was my first time trying this restaurant. Upon entry, the restaurant was clean and the staff were pleasant. I order the roasted chicken with plantains. A+. The chicken was seasoned well and juicy. It was so good I had to express to the staff how pleased I was. I will definitely come back again.“

“The service is great, as well as the food. The staff is always kind in explaining what the menu has to offer and what deals they have at the moment. I will definetly recommend to order the grilled chicken over the fried one, you won’t regret it.“

“Great service, different dishes to try out. Love their grill chicken and cilantro sauce as well. Tostones and fried rice is great too. Surprise it was in paper plates and cutting the chicken with plastic utensils was a bit hard. Place is neat. Parking was easy the day I went but it’s limited.“

“This is a great Pollo Tropical …
Have great food and employees
Regla is great always smiling and helping
and Yosie too they are both awesome !
Don’t forget to order flan ! Yum
I come here often …“

“Best place ever , costumer service super good 👌“

“I love this location being close to home but they really need to figure something out with the parking lady out front harassing guests. This chick fil a is legit the only business open in the building on the whole block yet you can’t park for 5 minutes out front to get food. The garage is $8! The city should rezone the parking in front for 15 minutes Max or something. How are business supposed to survive here. They are losing a lot of business. We left today because the parking lady was harassing us. Meanwhile 6 police cars parked out front getting lunch, a city bus parked in the no parking zone to get lunch, 2 usps trucks parked in a no parking zone to get lunch. Are they special? The street is dead! Let the public people get their lunch.“

“I come to Miami 3-4 times a year, and this is one of my favorite restaurants because the food is always seasoned so well and the plantains are delicious. 11/10 recommend you stop by.“

“Excelente!! Para quienes no puedan viajar al exterior este año!!!🤣🤣🤣“

“I'm an unashamed fan of PT.

When I can't think of what I want to eat in S. Florida I remember I can get a delicious grilled half chicken, fluffy white rice, savory black beans, and a nice roll for $11 and I'm looking up the near PT location. They never disappoint.“

“We love Krispy Kruncy Chicken! This location has halal meat (certification displayed!) which is wonderful. We love their chicken tenders and biscuits. The location is not traditional inside a gas station, however it's well worth the fantastic flavorful chicken.“

“I placed an online order for pickup it was my first time at this church chicken and I enjoyed the service very clean and organized the manager on shift was very polite to her workers and the customer I live in Hialeah which is a 17 minute drive but it's worth it and I will definitely be coming back to this location thank you for a wonderful service 🌹😊“

“This was my first time trying Honduran food and I was pleasantly surprised ..I ordered the pollo frito ceibeño ( fried chicken) wow the flavors are amazing and the overall seasoning of the chicken was the right balance of salty and crunchy , also have to mention the Service was top notch I don’t speak Spanish and they were very helpful in the ordering process…. Lastly the price point is definitely affordable for anyone…this will be one of my go too restaurants here in Miami ..5 Stars“

“the food is delicious, I love the fried chicken. Yummmie“

“I love Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen very much and the people here are very nice and I will come back again very soon.“

“The food is good but the people is a different story, I when to purchase a 14 piece meal for my kids and my self. and I was doing a favor for a friend, since I was going for my self, as he asked me to buy for her a 5 piece meal, everything was OK until a lady came to the register ( think it was the manager) I was using a coupon for each of the meals, I explained to her that one was for my home and the other one was for a friend but she kept saying I only can used one, again I explained that it was not for me the small meal why I'm going to get a 5 piece of I already was getting 14 pieces. just make to separate orders, but this small minded woman keep repeating her self that I can't, if my friend was there she still will have to do a second order... So no I will not recommend the location on 54st Northwest between 12th and 11th Avenue. they are rude and unprofessional... The old manager, was a kind an friendly lady. Train your management more than your cashiers... Their title goes over the heads. I'm going to Boston Market... even Popeyes is better...“

“I come to Miami 3-4 times a year, and this is one of my favorite restaurants because the food is always seasoned so well and the plantains are delicious. 11/10 recommend you stop by.“

“If you’re vacationing in the tourist section of Calle Ocho in Little Havana and want something quick to eat while still having that Caribbean flavor this place is it. It’s fast food so don’t expect too much but it is very good and tasty. It’s going to be a lot cheaper than one of those Cuban motif tourist restaurants in the area and you’ll have more time to sightsee. Service is fast and it’s always very clean. My only issue is they no longer have the fixings bar with all the different sauces so I no longer eat here three or four times a week like I used to pre Pandemic when the sauces were freely available. You can still ask for them but that’s not the same. You can’t be asking for 6 different sauces in massive quantities to drench your Tropi Chop as that would be kind of embarrassing.“

“The Hot Honey Chicken is a hit!!!“

“Its been awhile since we've been to kfc because they fell off hard compared to others, but today i was pleasantly surprised. The chicken strips were seasoned well, the fries were crispy, and i really liked that comeback sauce!! Good job kfc“

“Excelente!! Para quienes no puedan viajar al exterior este año!!!🤣🤣🤣“

“This KFC has friendly employees and the food is made with care. I can't speak to some of the unique items this restaurant has like grilled chicken, chicken fried steak, etc but the core products never feel like they've been sitting around. I am also happy that KFC has brought back wedges and this store always makes them fresh. They taste just like I remember them.“

“This is the best restaurant me and my husband have tried in years . He has a very sensitive estomach so we came and ordered something light a tropichop with their sauce and three packets of sugar . My husband loved it but he is now in the bathroom , we will definitely return“

“I recently visited the KFC in Miami Lakes and had a fantastic experience, thanks to the amazing service provided by Mandy. From the moment I walked in, Mandy greeted me with a warm smile and made sure I felt welcomed and comfortable.Her professionalism and attentiveness were truly noteworthy. Mandy took the time to answer my questions about the menu, ensuring I made the right choices for my meal. She displayed exceptional knowledge about the items, making recommendations that exceeded my expectations.Not only was Mandy efficient and quick in taking my order, but she also made sure I received my food promptly. Her attention to detail ensured that my order was accurate and perfectly prepared. Throughout my visit,“

“My elderly mother got lost going to Miami airport to pick me upand stopped here. Yarimar not only gave her directions but walked her through and stayed on the phone with her until she made it. Another girl was there and im so sorry I can't remember your name but thank you both for everything!
And ofc, can't go wrong with Popeyes 😎

Edited for typos“

“The Pollo Tropical at the FIU campus is one of the best quick food options at school. The grilled chicken is always flavorful, the TropiChop bowls are fresh and filling, and the service is fast even during busy lunch hours. It’s the perfect spot for a quick, tasty meal between classes. Definitely one of my favorite places to eat at!“

“All KFC will give you better service than to the rest of fast food places in my area. This franchise might be the only one where the employees actually listen to the customer, 98% accuracy. So far, good grilled chiken and I love their cole slaw.Decent.“

“I ordered me a half a chicken white rice black beans and was overly satisfied. I had a girl named Alexa who attended me at the front desk and was extremely helpful. She quickly inputted my order and within LITERALLY 3 minutes I got my plate with my desired sauces.. My only complain is that they dont have a pollo like this one closer to where I live because I would go everyday!!! I had to leave a review“

“As most Popeyes the food is good. Always just right and quick. This location is not the easiest to enter on a tight corner but worth the squeeze in. They are helpful with your selection, with fast service.

Parking: Fast drive threw“

“Great just need outside parking. The field that’s to chick fila should be turned in a 15 min parking lot “ talking services they would have more consumers. I just got lucky that day I found parking otherwise I would have kept going.
