48 Best Chicken Restaurants in Atlanta

“Hattie B's is my favorite go-to for Nashville hot chicken. The service at this location is always great, and the chicken comes out crispy every time. I do miss the cheese grits, but the new waffles are excellent and pair really well with the chicken. Highly recommend it if you're looking for a quick sweet and spicy fix.“

“Absolutely the best fried chicken sandwich in the city 🔥 🔥 ! Friendly service and great portions too !“

“Incredible Food and better service! Home run!“

“Amazing food! Love to eat here when I’m near. You need to bring this OTP!“

“I Was Completely Blown Away At This Restaurant. I Was Sat By A Beautiful Host Which Turn Out To Be My Server. Renisha Was Very Knowledgeable About The Ga Craft Beers. She did an amazing job by explaining each item on the menu. I Gave Her The Opportunity Of Ordering My Food and Beer. Oh Boy She Did Not Disappoint. I had the Blackened Catfish with rice and beans and an Orange Still Diva Beer To Drink. It was her two favorite items and I had no complaints! Renisha service was the best service I have had in years. My water cup was never low and if I had more time I would have had another beer. Renisha Was Very Patient With Me Even Though The Restaurant Was Very Busy. She is also a team player and is willing to pick up the slack from others. As A Restaurant Manager Please Give This Server Her Flowers, She Deserves it !“

“Great chicken tenders and wings! I also love the tacos and tofu! Everything is always fresh and it's the healthier choice! Great staff“

“Beautiful restaurant, fast & friendly service. Will be back! ☺️“

“Rahim Chicken Supreme gave me exactly what I needed from a quick meal stop: good food, convenience, and customer-first service.

I ordered hot honey wings, and the other order was lemon pepper wet with fries made with no seasoning or salt. When I explained the special request, Rahim thanked me for letting him know and made the adjustment exactly as requested.

The order took about 10 to 13 minutes. Since I still had about an hour drive home and I do most of the cooking at home, that worked out perfectly. I was able to grab a freshly cooked meal, pay easily with my debit card, get home, eat, and kick back instead of having to start cooking. That saved time was the dessert for me.

It was hot outside, so Rahim recommended that I wait in the car and said he would let me know when the food was ready. When it was done, he opened the containers and showed me the wings before I left.

I tried half of each flavor, and both the hot honey and lemon pepper wet wings were cooked about as close to perfection as I could ask for in a chicken wing.

Even at the handoff, the service stood out. I told him I did not need a bag, but he made sure the food was packed properly anyway, added napkins and utensils, and asked whether I wanted ranch or blue cheese.

Good food brought the experience together, but Rahim’s attention to the customer is what I will remember most. I would definitely return.“

“IF YOU AINT HAD GUS's, YOU AINT HAD FRIED CHICKEN!!!!!“

“I have been coming here for a few years now and I love this spot. The food always tastes fresh and the employees there are really patient. The portion sizes are really good for the price. And I like trying the new flavors they come out with!“

“Salad dressing was fresh, salad was delicious!“

“1st time here! Great decor and atmosphere. Staff were awesome and helpful amazing Apple lemon slush! 🍏🍋“

“One of our favorite places to grab plates from. The plates are so full it's hard to close so they'll plastic wrap each plate at this location. Great customer service, Awesome delicious food 🤤, always fresh. Love love our lemonade 🍒 icees and that seasoned shaker that goes on everything and yes we all want to know what's in the shaker😆 they have it on a chain, they know we love it✨🤤🫶🏾 #Vibes
We've been to 2 others Jj's, but we now know this is the best 1 so far.“

“I’ve been a fan of Nando’s ever since I first tried over 20 years ago!
I’m excited we have a location at Krog which is literally walking distance from where I live!

The staff was really hospitable and friendly and the chicken was on point- the hot and Zaka sauce paired well but I’m waiting for a blockbuster Ronaldo flavour 😜

Besides grilled chicken is lighter and the healthier chicken choice for those weight watchers ;)“

“The most delicious tenders I have had in a long time! I had the second level of heat and it was perfect! The pickles are yummy and flavorful, just the right crunch. Charles at the Marietta location was most helpful, I'll definitely return soon!“

“Me gusto mucho después de 5 años lo comí de nuevo el sabor del pollo campero es único Gracias por la atención …“

“Came into this location recently and was pleasantly surprised at how friendly the staff was. The cashier Erica was very helpful and recommended me the potato soup, which has become my go-to! Erica and the rest of the staff were polite and welcoming. This location isn’t very close to me but next time I’m in the area I will definitely be back.“

“Peace be upon this location. Just came from a pilgrimage in Ethiopia and was craving ChickFila. So happy i came to this location in Lenox Mall because Avery was so friendly and welcoming even while with another customer yet being attentive to that said customer. His team that evening were also on point especially because it was closing yet he still executed great service. It definitely doesn’t feel like it’s in a mall. Thank you Avery!“

“I would definitely recommend this store. I ordered food from them, and the delivery girl dropped it off in my apartment lobby. Unfortunately, someone stole my order. I messaged the delivery girl about what happened, and instead of just offering a refund, she actually came all the way back to my apartment to resolve the issue because I wanted my food, not the money back. She returned with a fresh order and made sure I received it. Truly appreciate the amazing customer service and kindness!“

“I had an exceptional experience at Chick-fil-A on Peachtree Street, and I especially want to recognize an extraordinary team member named Xel.

From the moment Xel approached me, her energy, kindness, professionalism, and enthusiasm immediately stood out. She appeared to genuinely enjoy her work and, more importantly, made me feel that providing an excellent experience for each customer was personally important to her.

Having experienced customer service in high-end retail establishments such as Louis Vuitton, Gucci, and Chanel, I recognize when someone possesses the ability to make a customer feel welcomed, valued, and appreciated. Xel demonstrated that same caliber of service. She was engaging, personable, attentive, confident, and incredibly warm. She did not simply take an order—she created a positive customer experience.

What impressed me even more was the leadership potential I observed in her. Although her current position is important to the success of the restaurant, Xel displayed qualities that suggest she is capable of even greater responsibility. She demonstrated initiative, strong communication skills, professionalism, emotional intelligence, and a natural ability to connect with people—all characteristics of an effective salesperson and an exceptional leader.

Employees like Xel are an asset to any organization. I sincerely hope the leadership team at this Chick-fil-A recognizes her talents, continues to invest in her professional growth, and provides her with opportunities to develop as a leader.

Xel, thank you for making an ordinary visit extraordinary. Your exceptional service did not go unnoticed!“

“First time there it’s so good“

“Is there any new news on how Ms.Linda is doing?“

“Got a couple of breakfast sandwiches. First the order was messed up. But the food was cold and not well done. The service at the drive through was good. But the food quality needs to be improved. Maybe the breakfast is the one that needs improvement“

“Awesome experience- the people care the restaurant is clean the food is fresh and we loved that everyone spoke to us! Ty for caring Chick Fil a.“

“​If you are looking for a solid spot to satisfy a seafood craving, SC Chicken & Fish is definitely worth checking out. I recently stopped by and ordered the whiting with a side of fries, and the fish itself was delicious. It was cooked remarkably well crispy on the outside, flaky on the inside, and seasoned with a fantastic lemon pepper kick. The hot fries paired perfectly, especially after switching over to ranch dressing.

The only real letdown was the tartar sauce. Instead of having that classic creamy, tangy balance, it tasted like straight sugar and was way too sweet for fried fish. Beyond that single dip mishap, the quality of the whiting and fries was undeniable. I will definitely be back for the fish, I’ll just be skipping the tartar sauce next time!“

“Food is always good. They have the best drive thru system in all of fast food currently and even a long wait doesn't seem so long when your order is taken in seconds of your arrival and is ready when you get to the window. 60 cars in 6 minutes. Anywhere else you could have 4 cars in the drive thru and it could take 30 minutes to give your order another 20 minutes to get to the window to pay and some places will still ask you to pull down or park so that they can bring the order to the car. Chick-fil-A has the best system going and it is being done properly at every location from MLK WESTEND, NORTHSIDE DR, FORREST PARK, CONYERS, COVINGTON, DULUTH, AND LAWRENCEVILLE.“

“JJ’s Fish & Chicken is definitely a hole in the wall. From the outside, it almost gives fast food and, I’m not gonna lie, it looked a lil ghetto when we pulled up 😂. BUT the drive thru line was literally around the corner, so I already knew they had to be doing something right.

We went inside and Will helped us, and he was extremely helpful and patient with all of our questions and even our last minute changes. Customer service was actually really good.

Now the food? Straight out of somebody’s grandma kitchen 😂. The chicken was DELICIOUS. Like seasoned, hot, crispy and good. The whiting fish was good too. Everything came out fresh and the portions were solid.

There’s also this white dust of something on all the plates. I have no idea what it is, but apparently that’s their thing 😂.

And the lemonade?? THE HIGHLIGHT. It’s more like juice than lemonade, but baby it was GOOD. Definitely hit the spot.

Overall, it was a very good ghetto combo 😂. The outside might make you question it for a second, but that line around the corner was telling the truth. I’d definitely go back.“

“Beef Philly - Good price and had plenty of meat and flavor... and way too much GREASE. Entire bottom was soaked through and bun was soggy with grease. A little annoying. 5/10

Egg rolls - cooked perfectly and tasted great. Awesome deal to be able to add to meal for very small upcharge. 9/10

Wings - not as soft as I would like as I specified soft in the directions. Really good flavor and seasoning. Ordered 10, got 13. Very enjoyable overall. 8/10

Drink - Giant size for small upcharge. Listened perfectly to LIGHT ICE and drink was good. 10/10

Google rating - 4/5. Philly needed work but prices and food hit correctly to me. Would gladly return.“

“I did not pay attention to where this location was but came here because of rating. The cashier was super nice and accommodating. I would totally go out of my way to come to the food court mall and get Popeyes because of this experience. Food was good and we got it quick!“

“Titia was amazing and made sure we had everything we needed plus. Great with the children too. I felt very special and treated special too.“

“Very disappointed in the service I've received lately. Last week didn't receive my extra chicken strips. Last night, there was a hole in the bottom of my milkshake and it's spilled all in my car. And then today I wasn't given my waffle fries. I try to call and I get a busy signal.“

“I've never ever had a bad experience at a Chick-fil-A until today. I ordered two of the grilled chicken sandwiches and the rolls were awful. Stale and they literally fell apart when we tried to pick them up. I returned them to the store and. I have to admit, the manager, Dexter, did a spectacular job of correcting the situation. I told him I didn't want another sandwich, just some grilled nuggets and chicken strips. Not only did he exchange the sandwiches for the new items, but he gave us the larger size of both AND gave us a refund. Now that's customer service!“

“I had intentions of visiting the Curb Market and going to a different spot but once I entered, the smell of Fried Chicken hit my nostrils. Complete heaven if you truth be told.

I sat at the table and debated if I wanted Fried Chicken or to go to the place I originally wanted to visit.

Well Curlys won the race especially because I kept seeing so many people place orders here.

I decided on the 2 piece Fish Special for $12. That comes with a side as well. I ordered Catfish (no upcharge) and Fried Okra. It also comes with a slice of white bread on the bottom of the container. I ordered two Fried chicken wings as well which came with a slice of bread.

The fish was fried extra crispy and was piping hot. The okra was enough to feed two people. Actually the whole container was enough for two people. The fish was melt in your mouth good and seasoned as well as the okra. Curlys you have definitely won me over. Thank you also for hipping me to Buddy sauce and your nice hospitality.“

“Trish at Chick-fil-A in Atlanta provided exceptional customer service! She was friendly, professional, and went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience. Her positive attitude and genuine kindness made my visit memorable. Employees like Trish are the reason customers keep coming back. Thank you for the outstanding service“

“They are very nice and patient with you. Cyrah was my server at the front and she was very nice and super understanding. She went above and beyond for me. She did not even complain when I told a long time getting my order together. Me and my friends That went their had the best time because the service from her was really good. I would 100% go here next time I want some Chick-fil-A“

“their chicken tenders and fries are the best. and I like the potato wedges“

“This is surprisingly the best fast food chicken I've ever tasted, not home cook but fast food. To me, it's better than all renowned chicken spot. I've only seen this brand at gas station but don't let that deter you from trying it. It's the real deal.“

“Chicken from a gas station/convenience store doesn't seem like the best place to get a good meal, but this place fries up chicken better than most of the local chicken restaurants and all of the local chicken chains. Matter of fact, if it can be fried they'll drop it in a big ole grease filled fryer and cook it until it's crisp and golden brown. Be sure to pay attention to the menu though. If you rattle off a bunch of stuff you want rather than using the combo wording as on the menu then you'll pay the a-la-cart total rather than the lower combo prices. Stick to the combos and it's a pretty decent deal.“

“Chick-Fil-A sells chicken in the way God Himself intended for us to eat chicken. Chick-Fil-A chicken is, in a word, Heavenly. Skinless, boneless, and with a wonderful blend of the perfect spices to make a naturally good food absolutely awesome. Order from your car, get your order (usually) within minutes. And, their milkshakes are best in town, too. Chick-Fil-A will spoil you with their chicken flavor and you’ll never be able to eat anyone else’s chicken again, not even Grandma’s. I’ve eaten meals in 42 countries around the world, but I’ve never tasted better chicken than l get at Chick-Fil-A. Try it. You’ll love it.“

“I’ve been here twice and the owner is the sweetest man. He’s a small business just working hard and he’s very honest.

8 wings and fries for $10 and the wings are GOOD.

My favorite is the bourbon wings but the garlic Parmesan(pictured) are also really good. This will likely be my wing run on a regular basis.

The strawberry lemonade is really good too.“

“That Egg While Grilled Chicken on a whole grain muffin was DELICIOUS!!! Thank.you so.much for offering healthier options.“

“For some reason they think even though they the biscuits are burnt they should display and sell them anyway. I asked for sub potato fries, Well you know what the answer was to that.Chicken tenders and honey mustard sauce was good.

Parking: It's also a gas stationWe have to wait in line outside for a pump it takes at least 20 min here, frustrating.“
