Chicken Restaurants near Carpentersville

“Just had the best experience eating at popeyes today with my son. staff was great, food was so fresh and delicious. I don't usually choose popeyes when i come out to eat, but I definitely will be coming back way more often! If you haven't tried their nuggets, do it now!“

“Just left with my brothers and we definitely will be back. Wings fresh never frozen and on top of that the Vegan food was hit!! The sauce was everything.
Check them out for yourself!! The GM and the staff was knowledgeable and definitely cool!!
Don't wait, go get Sticky Fingers!!“

“Good service overall. I notice the chicken is really good specifically when the cook named Raphael in the back cooks it. It’s never too gummy like some other stores. Always nice and tender. Shout out to Rafael and this store. Good service overall. Narda is a kind manager.“

“I just got Dave’s from the drive-thru. I can’t express how much I absolutely adored Morgan who was taking my order and was as sweet as can be! She’s such a hard worker for a young girl. I wish there were more people like her not only in the service industry, but also I wish there were more people like her in this world. Dave’s, if you have an employee of the month, a plaque of some kind, a raise, or a scholarship, Morgan deserves that and more! I work in the service industry myself and it’s not easy, you definitely come across people who are hard to get along with. Even though most of the time people are trying their best. If anyone ever has something negative to say about this store or Morgan, it will be the guests' who is in the wrong, not Morgan’s! I can’t wait to come back and hopefully see her again the next time I order here!“

“Simply the best staff within the Chick Fil A organization!“

“The food was super fresh and the service was friendly! I got the kimchi fried rice and it was the best fried rice I’ve ever had!

Vegetarian options: You can get fried rice with no meat and also the Korean corn dogs you can get cheese only!“

“Always a great experience at the Crystal Lake CFA! Recently placed a catering order - everything was delicious, hot, ready on time and, as always, the staff were wonderful!“

“A good place to eat. Fast friendly service. Good quality food. My only complaint is the waffle fries are always served kind of cool as they naturally cool off quick because of their design, and there never seems to be any salt on them. The Chicken tenders are warm and tender. The Chicken Soup is my favorite thing here.“

“KFC is a good place to eat! Enjoy the side dishes. The chocolate cake is very goo. We love it all! <3“

“Good food as usual. They have these ordering kiosks for self ordering. Not a fan. If I wanted a job at KFC I would apply. To management... You want to keep more 30+ customers, always have a person willing to help to take orders. I did have help but not after I attempted and failed as a faux employee.“

“Popeyes at the Hangover Park location delivers pretty much what you’d expect—a solid chicken experience. The food was decent; not extraordinary, but consistent with Popeyes’ usual quality. It’s the kind of flavor profile you expect when you’re in the mood for fried chicken, satisfying without any major surprises.

On the day I visited, the restaurant was quite busy, with a steady stream of customers coming in and out, many ordering large quantities, likely for gatherings or events. This location does offer catering, and I noticed that when they’re handling big orders, it can create a bit of a delay for those waiting on individual meals. The wait wasn’t unreasonable, but it’s worth noting that if you’re visiting during peak times or when catering orders are in full swing, a little patience may be required.

One minor observation was about the way customers wait. Some people tend to stand in the middle area rather than forming a more orderly line, which can make the space feel a bit crowded or disorganized at times. While this is more about customer behavior than the restaurant itself, it does impact the experience slightly.

Overall, this Popeyes location provides exactly what you’d anticipate. If you’re looking for decent fried chicken and don’t mind a little bustle, it’s a reliable choice.“

“5/13 update. Up from 2 to 4 star. Ordered ahead and the girl on the phone was super nice. I tried ordering online but it was not working some reason with the coupon thing and she said just download the online coupon and show it and they will accept it which was great cus i'll order more often. Not so much with out coupon since it is a little bit out of my way.Ordered 4 piece chickens and 2 sides special today and i specifically asked for 2 drum sticks and 2 thighs to have a quick lunch with my wife and kids. Took 10 mins thru drive thru and what made it worst was when I got home it was 1 drum stick, 1 wing, 1 breast and 1 thigh. It was 10.45am and no one was around except me and cant get a simple order correct is just dissapointing. I guess they fry them for each order rather than some already pre made under heat lamp especially during lunch time.“
