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!“

“I’ve been here several times already and I always come back. The food is delicious and generous with the amount. My favorite sauce is their signature tiger sauce! It’s my go-to chicken spot now, I don’t even go to the fast food chicken places now because I love supporting a small, family-owned business even more. While the service could be slow at busy times, please remember that it’s only a handful of workers there alongside with the owners. The owners are probably the reason why I come back, they are the friendliest pair I’ve even met in a restaurant business. You can really feel the care and love they pour into their business in their food.“

“Recently went to the Daddy Daughter Date night they set up. IT WAS ABOVE AND BEYOND AMAZING! I thought it was going to be a nice little reserved set up so we could eat and have some fun but they did what chick-fil-a does and made it INCREDIBLE. They had actual Unicorns, fairies and mascots there and activities for the kids. (they ran it very efficiently as well) As always, the service and the food was great too. Very happy with the night and I will absolutely sign up again.“

“I ended up at Chick-fil-A after getting frustrated with other fast food places taking forever to get my order. Even though there was a line here too, the drive-thru moved way faster than at other spots I had tried. The service was just what you’d expect from Chick-fil-A—polite and efficient. They really know how to keep things moving without sacrificing quality customer service.

The food was solid, as always, but the only hiccup was that they gave me the wrong sauce. It wasn’t a big deal for me, but if you’re particular about your sauce, you might want to double-check before driving off. Overall, it’s a great spot if you’re looking for quick food with consistently good service, even when they’re busy.“

“I came in on a Monday afternoon, kind of a rush hour but food came to me quickly hot and delicious. Workers had there shirts tucked in which in my opinion was kind of gay but professional. When I was ordering the food there was this kind white male with black hair and was really respectful. But I went in the men’s bathroom and found a used condom which was disgusting, wouldn’t recommend using the bathroom.“

“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.“

“Some people might roll their eyes at quick stop fast food. I’m don’t. Around the country there are a lot of good restaurants in service stations.

KKC just opened on Lake and I heard good buzz so I stopped in. The kitchen area is very clean. No doubt; it’s new! The chicken tenders I got were very thick in size and covered with a crunchy, peppery coat. I ordered the box of three with fries and sure I could’ve finished it, but two strips probably would have been enough!

The original sauce is like a sweet garlic lemon flavor. Honey mustard was good too.

The fries are thick, cut steak type that could’ve been cooked a little longer. I got the original biscuit side, which wasn’t super impressive; very sweet. I’ll try some of the other options next time.

The counter staff is friendly enough. If I’m on the run and looking for quick and tasty fried chicken, I’ll stop back! (No indoor seating.)“

“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.“

“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.“
