It’s always delivered fresh and warm and the chicken is amazing the seasonings are fantastic! And the names of the items to order are hilarious also the humor in me makes me laugh at them!“

“Best sharks on the planet hands down!!! Fish and chicken always 8/10 comes out really crispy and flavorful their garlic and lemon pepper is perfection other places the blend isn’t right either to lemony or garlicky but hands down best sharks on planet earth second best sharks is the one in blue island“

“Probamos el pollo a la brasa y estaba espectacular, jugoso y lleno de sabor. Además, el café de olla es simplemente exquisito, el mejor que he probado en mucho tiempo. El dueño es increíblemente servicial, siempre con una sonrisa y una actitud que te hace sentir como en casa. Definitivamente, un lugar al que volveré una y otra vez. Súper recomendado.“

“Before I placed my order. I was told it would be a 25 minute wait. It was well worth the wait. This is some of the best chicken. I've ever had in Chicago. The breading was crispy and the chicken was moist. This was my first time going there I'll be back.“

“First time here! Chicken was flavorful & juicy! Even the chicken with no seasoning had a great taste. Reasonable price, I paid about $48 for two adults & one child. The shake was not too sugary - definitely would come back! Just an fyi mild still has a bit of cayenne for those who don’t like anything spicy, I recommend plain.“

“We do not usually go to this Chick-fil-A. We were meeting family at a halfway point. We had 4 kids with us. The play land was a hit. The one by me does not have one. First of all the staff was great. I ordered a grilled club instead of grilled nuggets.I have a gluten allergy. When I explained what I did they just gave me grilled nuggets at no charge. The customer service by everyone was superb. I love Chick-fil-A. We go often because they treat their customers with kindness.
Thank you for a great experience!“

“Very good chicken! Q pollo rico !“

“Love this place - the chicken is always good. BUT if I order wings and ask for “mild sauce on the side” I only want mild sauce. I ordered 8 wings with mild sauce on the side and got 1 cup of mild sauce and 1 cup of hot sauce - I never asked for hot sauce so now I have 8 wings with 1 cup of sauce.“

“Muy rica la comida excelente servicio ! muy limpio, felicidades“

“This place is the most underrated Chicken spot.Chicken Is absolutely delish falls off the bone tender and crispy.The Mac and cheese combined with mash potatoes is a great combo.and fritters for desert.Great place definitely recommend.Will not be disappointed“

“Excellent coffee and customer service. It's a fast-food place, but the atmosphere is elevated because the people who work here are all really polite, professional, and friendly. They also look just really put-together and stylish (just an aesthetic thing I noticed). It's also really clean with real flowers on each table, and just very pleasant. I was here in the morning and would definitely come back at this time of day. A bright spot in the Ford City area and in this area of the Southwest Side.“

“Yo, I ain’t have the most faith when walking in around closing time but yall turned it around and made me a repeat customer. I got my food mad quick and they even threw in a free biscuit. Good vibes frfr and then they even let one of the homies from the block clean the outside. Respect. I’ll be back with my big back ahh.“

“They go above and beyond! Management is wonderful and they thoroughly train their employees. I noticed this because when I was in the dining room, I overheard and I really like how clean and friendly they are there! The food is great and I just got the grilled chicken egg sandwich this morning, and it was perfect! Manager came out and I was able to get it in less than a minute! They have a great attitude, even for customers like us that are in a hurry, and they go above and beyond! I wish that this business continues to thrive! Will keep coming back!“

“the best thing about this place is the service the food and prices It's so affordable I've been coming here now for my quick meal I literally can't ask for anything more the guy that works, let me tell you he works lol The food is so good i always come here for my special two pizza puffs, mozzarella sticks and fries always the same price 13 dollars i swear anywhere else and you would be paying 10 dollars for each pizza puff. definitely recommend!!!!“

“Eat there whenever I'm in town!!! Food is always fresh, hot and delicious!!!! Friendly staff.“

“I used to eat from years ago, and I stop by today. food is still 🔥🔥🔥“

“Really cool spot I like it better than Harolds chicken. There was a woman in there that was really helpful and kind. I ask for her name I believe she told me Monique. Thank you!! For all your help. A lot of times we talk about the bad and never talk about the good.“

“The older cashier who works in the mornings is outstanding!! She is exactly what this location needs! She is professional and kind to her customers!! The food has been consistently good but she is the face behind this location and one of the reasons I frequent this location. Kudos to her!“

“I don't know who was cooking yesterday but they need to be in the kitchen at all times! The fried chicken was perfect, the mozzarella sticks were perfect, My wife ordered the chicken Philly and let me try it, and I have never had a Chicken Philly that tasted so good in my life! I will be going back today!“

“The only reason I gave a 4 star review is because they forgot my bucket of chicken and I had to travel a distance just to come back to KFC. But the manager guy was so so nice and with no hesitation replaced my whole order. He brought the order to my car and he was very polite and nice. Thank you“

“We normally go to Harold's #88 when in Illinois.. so when they told us they could not make us a big order of chicken I was disappointed...my aunt suggested that we go to this one and they had the best chicken out of any Harlod's Chicken that we ever been to even when it was cold it was still good best chicken ever.... Remember Harold's Chicken not Harold's Chicken shack that's something different... Now this is my fav and when ever we come to Illinois I definitely will be back....Thanks“

“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! 😋👌“

“Harold’s is always the first place i go when i land in the Chi. This past week was no different. My best friend picked me up from the airport and already knew what it was, lol. This particular Harold’s was recommended. I stopped in around 8:30 or so and i gave my spill abt how it’s a tradition each time i come Chicago, Harold’s it’s always the first stop. The lady at the register took my order and asked where i was visiting from. I got wings and a pizza puff with mild and hot sauce, salt/pepper, and ketchup. She recommended i add Lemon Pepper, i obliged. After abt 10 minutes, i got my fresh food with a free bottle of mild sauce. Once i made it to the crib the food was gone in abt 7 mins. Food and customer service 10 out of 10 would highly recommend… I’ll definitely be back.“

“Always fresh and friendly. Best churches experience in Chicagoland“

“Amazing Great Hot Fresh And Good!!!“

“Everything cooked to order I don't mind waiting for fresh cooked food.... it was perfect I ordered chicken tenders, hush puppies and fries..... delicious I kept driving pass this place but never stopped in ,but now I know where to go....“

“Tried this location on the fly- food was very very tasty! Everything was fresh! But my friend told me they forgot my pepper, but first time here was a hit!!! Loved every bit of my 6 wings with fries!!! Will definitely return, please keep up the good work!“

“Shark’s Fish & Chicken is a fantastic spot for comfort food! I tried the fried catfish and it was crispy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked, while the fries were golden and well-seasoned. The portions are generous, making it a great value for the price. The staff were friendly“

“Good .always fresh s d hot“

“I came in last night (03/14/25) before hitting the highway to head home, Food was AMAZING ! The only downside was I purchased the 2 meat + 2 side + an extra side & only received one of my meats. Total was almost $30. Didn’t realize until I was already home 2hrs away eating my meal. I received my jerk chicken, but not my stew meat (I think that’s what it’s called). I was the lady with the baby sitting down. I will say that buddy was back there doing all the work himself and that line kept piling up, so I get it. 😩 I just would've loved to have tasted the other meat & that mean my leftovers (that I’m eating rn) would be bigger 👏🏽🤣 lol“
