“The cook was on point and the man who took our order was super polite Thank you loved it.“

“I had an awesome experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken thanks to Dominick! From the moment I walked in, he was friendly, welcoming, and clearly cared about making sure every customer had a great visit. He helped me pick the perfect spice level and made sure my order came out just right. The food was amazing as always, but Dominick’s positive attitude and great customer service really stood out.“

“Definitely lived up to the hype.“

“Top notch food and service 👌 5 stars 🌟“

“wonderful food and affordable and tasty“

“Tried Hangry Joe’s in Glendale Heights for takeout and everything was delicious. We ordered the Sando burger, chicken fingers, wings, loaded mac & cheese, and fries, medium spicy across the board. The spice level was perfect with unique, flavorful seasoning. The chicken was big, juicy, and cooked perfectly. Kids loved the mac & cheese, fingers, wings, and fries. We went around 3 PM, enjoyed great hospitality, a nice ambience, and even caught a cricket match on their huge screen. Plenty of parking and a great location. With so many fast-food options nearby, Hangry Joe’s really stands out. Will definitely be back, next time going spicier on the Sando! 🌶️🍔“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Excellent food. Sauces were great
I had lost my car keys behind one of the booth, long gone. We asked a worker to help us, and James was extremely helpful by moving multiple booths and grabbed them for us. Super quick with the food, fast service. Highly recommend“

“Thank you Ursula for all you do!“

“The culinary experience was exceptional; however, please be advised that even the mild spice level retains a notable potency. The garlic sauce can effectively mitigate the heat, yet the overall flavor profile remains consistently delightful, regardless of your selection. I wholeheartedly endorse this establishment.“

“I’ve been wanting to come here since Niall Horan (ex-one direction) said this was his favorite restaurant! Very delicious!“

“Had an awesome experience here and definitely coming back.

Everything is fresh and cooked to order, which you can really taste. The chicken came out hot, juicy, and perfectly grilled with that nice char flavor you want from peri-peri. Nothing felt pre-made or sitting around — they clearly make it when you order.

The service was fast and super friendly too. Staff was welcoming, helpful with recommendations, and kept things moving quickly even during busy time.

The real stars though are the sauces:
• 🌶️ Medium spicy peri-peri sauce – perfect heat level with tons of flavor
• 🧄 Garlic sauce – creamy, rich, and absolutely addictive

Get both on the side — trust me, you’ll want extra for dipping everything.

Overall: great food, quick service, and amazing flavor. Highly recommend if you’re craving fresh, flavorful grilled chicken done right.“

“I'll say service is slow but for a good reason. Once younplace your order it's a wait but the food was delicious. The kids got corn dogs and cheese fries they enjoyed. The wife and I got a beef fried rice and garlic honey wings both amazing ... I'd come back definitely.“

“I live in Los Angeles and was in Chicago area for a job. I ordered grilled chicken philly for lunch and it pretty good, ive traveled the country as a Truck driver and have to say this is a top 3 chicken philly in my opinion... highly recommend this place!“

“Awesomely peachy shakes yum“

“Very Exciting News!!!

For the last several years when my daughter and I have gone to visit our family in Georgia they introduced us to this cute little restaurant called Chicken Salad Chick. After the 1st time it quickly became a favorite of ours, so every time we visit our family they know that we will be going to Chicken Salad Chick at least 2-3 times each visit.

Prior to 2021 we never even knew such a place existed.
It’s such a great meal, very light & flavorful, you just can’t go wrong with anything.

My daughter and I live in IL, so I have been checking the website to see if there was any chance that they would be opening any in our area.
I did find a few in Illinois, but they were all pretty far south from where I live, outside of Chicago.

The other day I happened to check the website again & I was thrilled to see that one recently opened in Glen Ellyn, IL.

I contacted my daughter immediately and we went the next day.
Not only was everything delicious as usual, but we had an overall wonderful experience.
The store was exceptionally clean.
Sonia, the general manager on staff, was very kind and welcoming.
The entire staff that was working there were all very friendly.
We love the menu, but the Grape Salad is our absolute favorite 💕

Glen Ellyn is still about a 40-minute drive for us if the traffic cooperates, but absolutely worth it.

The only thing I would love to see is a location open closer to the Schaumburg area!

Thank you to the franchise owners for taking a chance and opening up a couple in IL, we wish you much success and continued growth and expansion.
For anyone that has not been to a Chicken Salad Chick Restaurant, I would highly recommend.
Each chicken salad is so flavorful, they also have unique sides & yummy desserts.
Many gluten free options as well.
I wish I could give more than 5 stars

“Amazingly good chicken strips. A simple lunch special of 3 strips, a side and a Grape Crush. Freshly made, hot, and tasted like chicken. The breading was unobtrusive, letting the chicken do the talking. Mashed potatoes were good, the gravy wasn't salty as some chicken joints are. Biscuit rocked. Plus a gambling area and beer. If they are consistently like this, it's a sure winner.“

“Owner is always there and very nice
His employed is also very friendly
Food is always very good
I only order legs so if I think of it I all a head of time for a heads up but normally I forget but they allay either have enough or they will make it fresh with no issues
Great place I drive from Schaumburg“

“You got try to believe it!! The food is delicious 👍😃“

“Food was great. Always is! The main issue is the cleanliness of the dining area and lack of aesthetic appeal. You guys make a killing. Invest in your diner and get your workers more help. They do as much as they can! Great crew! Paint your walls. Decorate the store. Get better seats. Scared more don’t make no $.“

“The chicken is amazing and I am so happy y’all are out here in the burbs! Thank you for the bombass chicken and the amazing service! 😘“

“I had extraordinary service from this young gentleman today working the cash register. And I was also excited to hear from the manager that the play place may be opening soon.“

“I don’t often leave reviews, but today’s experience truly stood out. Even on a busy Saturday morning, our order was correct and the service was excellent. What made the experience exceptional, though, was one employee in particular—Amy.

While delivering food to another table, Amy noticed a language barrier with the customers and immediately used her bilingual skills to speak Spanish so they could fully understand and enjoy their experience. You might not expect it at first glance, but she spoke Spanish very well. She even shared her story and was incredibly personable, not just with that table but with everyone around her.

Moments like this are exactly why I continue to choose Chick-fil-A. Employees like Amy make a real difference.“

“The chicken tenders were a good size, the breading was yummy and crunchy, and the chicken was juicy. The honey biscuits were good too. We got plenty of food for the price. For three people we got enough for two meals for a total of $50. The people working there were very nice and the food was ready when I got there to pick it up. Easy to order online.“

“Great service was there for a blood drive wished they would have feed the donors“

“I had place an order of boneless wings for an event around 3pm for it to be ready at 9:30pm. They were so kind to accomodate the time. Pretty much had the food ready as I got there. Ali, who attended me, was so kind and provided wonderful service and everyone at the event finished everything and thought it was delicious! I do want to point out that I have been going to Wing Snob for some bonesles wings and I gotta say that the batter at this Brown's Chicken was lighter and didn't make me feel so bloated. Will definitely be coming back. Thank you!“

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

“Very nice and friendly workers. Always some kind of deal on chicken. My favorite deal is cold chicken. You can get eight pieces of cold chicken if they have any for about $5. They are still one of the only chicken places that you can get livers, gizzards and hush puppies. All cooked to perfection and their delicious crunchy breading.“

“The food is always good some of the best chicken we ordered on new years eve and when I went to pick it up everything seemed OK and I did go thru the bag but the French fries we ordered and paid for weren't in the bag could I have go e back yes but that's why should always check the bag no matter what. The chicken and everything else was great however“

“One of my favorite fast food restaurant 😋 They always cook my food the way I request.“

“One of the better Popeye chains around! Right behind Menards, easy parking, good customer service. Made an online order about 5 mins before arriving. By the time we got there, they quality control was finishing up. We ordered 16 tenders but got several extra! We also got extra honey mustard! Definitely a solid Popeyes, enjoy!“
