“If you're a trucker stuck at one of the many yards waiting for your appointment time, and you don't have to worry about your diabetes or high blood pressure; go ahead and walk on down to Dave's Hot Chicken. If you do have to worry about it just take a walk.

I'll tell you, the fries and the Mac is pretty damn good. I went in when everything was freshly made, almost directly after opening. This was my first time trying it. Wonderful first impression. The slider was damn good too. Fried to perfection.... The young lady that served the orders also had excellent customer service. Y'all keep it up now.“

“what a great restaurant. the food was delicious and the staff was very friendly. it was a great way to end our day in Chicago“

“there is a fantastic rock and roll brunch menu. the service is excellent. and I can highly recommend the Long Island Iced Teas.“

“I've been wanting pancakes for the past month and finally went for some this morning. The pancakes were PHENOMENAL! My pancake jonesing was fulfilled by a more delicious pancake than I imagined was possible. They were huge and I could only eat one 🤤 The other reheated perfectly in the microwave - the texture was interior, but the taste was still fantastic. I've been before, but got other things. At this point, I can confidently recommend the breakfast sandwich, beignets, and pancakes. Oh, and get yourself an orange pop for breakfast... Be bad, treat yourself!“

“Chicken is very delicious“

“our friend/landlord brought us to you all and it was so good and fresh and juicy and it was the best food I've ever had in a long time! I really recommend this place!!“

“My first time eating here and I’m impressed. I think the managers name is Ronaldo. He went over the menu items with me. He was very nice and informative. My food was made fresh to order so I did wait a little over ten minutes. If you have time to wait, it’s worth it. I had Nashville hot chicken tenders and fries. The fries could definitely use some salt or some kind of fry seasoning. My chicken tenders were steaming hot and delicious. Flavor was good but not spicy. I would eat here again.“

“Love it all was worth the drive 💗“

“The food this past Friday was amazing. The potato and the lobster could have been warmer but still excellent. Our server, Juanita, went above and beyond to serve all the tables in her section as well as stopping by to check that everyone was taken care of.“

“Great food! Great people! Forget Raising Canes, Chubbies is better in every way. Location is great on a beautiful “Main Street” America type setting. Amazing chicken sandwiches and tenders with generous portions and great prices“

“I just wanna say their bento boxes are sooo good. Like whoever making them back there putting their all into it cause it’s so good and perfect. They are also well accommodating to request. Everything taste so fresh. Staff is also really nice and attentive!!!“

“I was way too excited about my food that I didn’t even realize I didn’t get the extra pickles on my order. 🥲😩 I was half way through before I gave it a thought. I guess you can say it is THAT good 🤣“

“Definitely lived up to the hype.“

“Best hot chicken in Chicago“

“We’ve been here a few times and every time the food is awesome. Super easy and healthy dinner option when don’t want to cook. We love the whole jefe chicken and order with broccoli, Mac and cheese, and fries (the seasoning for the fries is awesome). Service is great and the music they play is always top tier. Love this spot“

“Fantastic crispy chicken tenders. Mac & cheese was incredible as well.. worth every penny. Will be back to try rest of menu no doubt 🔥“

“In the past I was not really a Jerk food type of guy, but I love this place. The food was fresh and seasoned just like I like it. The overall atmosphere was great as well. Super clean sitting area with quiet music and television while you wait for your food. I've been there twice already, and will definitely be going back. It'll be one of my regular spots for lunch or dinner.“

“Great regular and Spicy fried chicken, plus I love that they serve gravy to dip your chicken in“

“Stopped by after a late shift hoping they were still open, and was greeted with a warm welcome from Stan who was cleaning up the place doing a good job! Good food, good drinks, GREAT service!! Thank you Stan, will definitely be stopping by and trying other burgers out!“

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

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Brandon provided absolutely amazing customer service! I loved how he smiled and approached me and my family with such a positive and friendly attitude. He made us feel truly welcomed. The Willowbrook Chick-fil-A location is definitely a number one spot for me — we’ll be coming back again for sure!“

“Henri is so happy with the customer service at #cfamelrosepark #chickfila!! his parents accidentally used my birthday reward and the assistant director gave them three new rewards to make up for it! can't wait to dress up henri for cow appreciation day! #rebeccallawrence thank you!“

“Stopped by Chick-fil-A in the Irving Park/Addison area while passing through Chicago. Like most Chick-fil-A locations, the food itself was good and consistent — the chicken sandwich was fresh, crispy, juicy, and exactly what you expect from the brand. The waffle fries were hot and well seasoned, and the service moved relatively quickly despite the restaurant being quite busy. Staff were polite and professional, which is something Chick-fil-A usually does better than most fast-food chains.

That said, the experience was disappointing overall because the bathroom was closed during our visit. When you’re traveling, especially with kids and family, access to a restroom is not a small issue — it becomes part of the overall customer experience. After driving around the city and stopping specifically to eat and take a break, finding out the washroom was unavailable was frustrating and inconvenient. There didn’t seem to be much communication around it either, which made it even more disappointing.

The restaurant itself appeared fairly clean and organized, and you could tell the staff were trying to keep up with the flow of customers. But for such a high-traffic location, basic amenities really matter. It changes how comfortable and welcoming the experience feels, especially for families, travelers, or anyone stopping in during a long day.

I’ll still say the food quality and customer service were better than many other fast-food places, which is why I’m not giving it a lower rating. But the closed restroom definitely impacted the visit enough to bring the overall experience down.

Overall: good food, decent service, but the lack of restroom access made the stop far less convenient than it should have been.“

“delicious 😋 food & great service......“

“We had a great customer service experience here! My wife ordered a vanilla cream cold brew, but it was a bit sweet for her taste. The woman working the window remade it with less vanilla and shake base, which was very nice of her! I wish I got her name but I hope her team reads this shout out anyway!“

“Chicken hands down but they're gyro cheeseburgers is 🔥 too. They kind of fell off on the Italian beefs. They're chicken gizzards and catfish nuggets fried head is a hit too. Yet, they need to understand that everybody don't like lemon pepper. Put it on the side and let one decide if they want it.“

“Considering how busy the place is can't complain on the quality food tastes good and they even bring you the food. The only real complaint is that you have to ask for the sauces but I would imagine that's a mixed issue with cheapness / customer fault as well from people taking too much 🤷“

“My company moved a block away, and when I strike events I get back at 1-2am, so tonight I tried for first time coming back from downtown I usually stop at goose Island or I stop for a jew town polish Maxwell st, but didn't feel like stopping so I ordered the catfish nugget regular meal and it was incredible, highly recommend service was great the lemon pepper seasoning was fire came with fries and old school 2 pieces of white bread reminded me of getting from harolds chicken , next time I try the Wings. ;)“

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

“me encanta, muy rico pollo y su servicio al cliente es muy bueno, y sobre todo muy buen precio. lo recomiendo, vengan y visiten pollo KFC. Está riquísimo! 😋👌“

“the food is good i like the Talapia fish.“

“I’m greeted immediately almost every time I come. I don’t even trip that there’s no drive thru bcuz the staff is so nice. Service quick, food hot, my order never wrong, Sufficient sauces. Only thing they’re missing is the old school strawberry shortcake lol“
