Chicken Shops near Skokie, IL

“excellent food, especially the brussels and pastrami app. delicious and big portions“

“I went for the first time and it blew me away. It was quiet at this time and we were the first orders of the day, but the food came fairly quickly. I ordered the Byrd bomb and it was a very generous portion as I had hoped. The sauce is amazing, and the chicken is flavorful and cooked to perfection. The fries are amazing with the seasoning, and the toast was warm and buttery. Extremely satisfied overall, will come back again!“

“Our first visit to Nando’s was a delicious experience! We’re putting this place into our dining rotation!!“

“Best waffle fries AND Market Salads with Apple Cider vinegarette dressing are a lovely combo!!! Great service and very well run with a strong management team.“

“I had mixed feelings about my visit to Port of Peri Peri. The food was honestly excellent and full of flavor, so I have no complaints about the quality of the meal itself.

However, the customer service really let the experience down. The staff didn't seem friendly or welcoming, and when I asked questions, they either didn't respond properly or didn't seem interested in helping. The dining area also looked like it needed more attention—several tables were greasy and didn't appear to be cleaned promptly, which made eating in feel a bit unhygienic.

If you're planning to try this place, I'd recommend ordering takeout instead of dining in. The food is definitely worth trying, but I think the overall dine-in experience and cleanliness could use significant improvement.This keeps the review balanced by praising the food while clearly describing the issues you experienced.“

“Every fast food restaurants in model themselves after this place. Fresh fast food, I had the chicken 3 piece and a soda. Not only was the chicken perfectly cooked, but there was the friendliest kindest staff you would have thought I was at a 4 star. Well played Jollys, teach us how it's done...PLEASEEEEEEE !!“

“Being from the suburbs traveling downtown can be an experience. This particular experience made our day. Moving our daughter into DePaul we came upon the owner of Red Light chicken who gave us a few pointers in parking near his establishment, after taking the time to help us find a spot he happily welcomed us with a free chicken sandwich which I’m happy to report was delicious. It was nice meeting you tonight and I’ll be certainly stopping by again - Fries are a game changer to!!!“

“I want to give a special shoutout to Nadia at Dave’s Hot Chicken! She is absolutely amazing and always makes the experience better with her kindness, positive energy, and great customer service. You can tell she genuinely cares about the people she interacts with, and that kind of warmth goes a long way. Nadia, thank you for always being so wonderful you are truly appreciated. I love you so much and I hope you know how much your kindness and personality brighten people’s day! ❤“

“love this place! i order from here at least once a week!“

“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“

“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.“

“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!“

“Honestly one of the best fried chicken spots in Niles! The chicken was super crispy from the outside and juicy inside 🔥 The seasoning is on point and the fries are fresh and well-seasoned.

The place is clean, service is fast, and the staff are friendly. Perfect spot if you’re craving comfort food or a quick bite.

Definitely coming back again and highly recommended! 👍🍗🍟“

“We were looking for a late night bite to eat while visiting Chicago and Serena’s was the spot! Service was friendly and food was delicious! Highly recommend. Will definitely be back for our next visit.“

“Chicken is very delicious“

“Definitely lived up to the hype.“

“Came here for some late night munchies with my friends, I have nothing but genuinely great things to say about this location. I enjoy Daves as a whole chain; however, this particular location takes the cake. Absolutely phenomenal accomodation by the staff, even when it's booming with people and busy. Despite all the orders the staff were slammed with, they still were able to give special, attentive care and respect to every customer. I even learned some of the employees names, and they really stuck with me. Elijah, the cashier, despite the business, accomodated to my needs with absolute care. The general manager (forgive my spelling if misspelled), Fritz, really made an impact on me. His fun and bubbly personality, willing to reach out and ask how his customers were doing, showed me how: even when this specific Daves location's team and workers are slammed with orders and busy, they still do an exceptional job with hospitality and care for customers, and that's not easy and I admire that. Another staff, Ciara, stood out to me due to her fun personality. It speaks volumes to me that I got to meet and remember the names of these workers! 🩷 This location truly made my night I love you Daves! 🐥🐔❤“

“Love it all was worth the drive 💗“

“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!!!“

“So came across this place on my walk and love boba tea so I stopped in. I got the chicken sandwich and fries for a great deal ($8) and I must say I’m very impressed. The sandwich taste fresh, I got less spicy spice level and the chicken is nice and juicy. The sandwich has some really good flavor. Not hard at all which I love cause I hate getting sandwiches with hard chicken. I paired with a spicy mayo.

Just earned a new customer. Love the indoor seating as well and they got free wifi!

Thank you!“

“Best chicken sandwich I ever had! The chicken soup was also amazing!“

“I ordered the spicy garlic chicken tenders and oh man were they delicious. The portion is large, definitely enough for 2. The tenders themselves are on the smaller side which makes for a perfect ratio of chicken to crisp to flavor. I also ordered curly fries which came out super hot and crispy. Those were delicious but the price was a little high.

The place is cute and comfortable, very clean. The service was great. The woman working the register and tables was super sweet.“

“The food was excellent! The fried green tomatoes are fantastic, as was everything else! Gabby greeted us beautifully, & Eliza was an amazing server! Thank you so much for a lovely lunch :-)“

“Awesome food here good service and very friendly staff makes you feel welcomed more than any other fast food place“

“Hands down punching the family and not just smacking your mama good chicken tenders that are juicy. Second, highly recommend the fantastic crinkle fries and Texas butter toast. Lastly, the sauces are out of this world 🌎 🌍“

“Definitely lived up to the hype.“

“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“

“Ordered Chicken Thigh Skewers and had a coupon for additional menu item free. Chose 12 wings. Got home opened bag and had 18 wings, no skewers.“

“Best hot chicken in Chicago“

“Excellent food! Excellent service! DON’T MISS THIS PLACE WHEN YOU’RE IN CHICAGO!“

“Chicken was on point! Had the Chili buffalo chicken sandwich and Nashville hot wings. Definitely recommend“

“We used to go to their old location all the time when we lived in the city, so we were excited to check out the new location now that we have kids—and it did not disappoint!

The fried chicken and biscuits were delicious, and the portions were huge. The kids’ play area with books, trucks, Connect 4 and more was an awesome surprise, plus the kids got fun crazy straws! It’s genuinely kid-friendly without sacrificing great food.

And the $2 beers with a meal were an unexpectedly awesome deal. Great food, great prices, and a perfect family spot. We’ll definitely be back! 🍗🍺“

“This place is amazing. Best food & best service around. We we in town for 9 nights and got dinner here 2 of the 9 evenings. You can't beat the service. You can just show up and order take out and they have your order packed and ready to go in minutes. Highly recommend this place.“

“Came in today with our big family and had an amazing experience! The food was delicious, and the management truly cared about making sure we had a great time. We tried just about everything on the menu, and our favorites were the smash burger and the nachos. We even tried their boba tea, and it was delicious! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and served with great hospitality. Highly recommend—we’ll definitely be back!“

“Delicioso! Me encanta 🥰🥰🥰🥰“

“A casual Korean fried chicken spot known for crispy, flavorful wings with a variety of sauces. The food is fresh and popular for takeout or quick dining. Very convenient, located near a train station—especially helpful for those without a car. We especially like the galbi boneless chicken and cheesy fries.“

“Nandos Peri Peri is incredible. I appreciate the kindness of the staff and managers towards me even though I have autism and their food is amazing and really good. GM Austin and Liz is very nice. Amazing lemon chicken. Must come back. 10/10.“

“Got the green onion chicken tenders. They were delicious. Also got the smashed pear drink. It was also great“

“First time the food was very flavorful and reasonably priced. Waiter was very helpful in explaining foods and dishes to try.“

“I'll tell you about the best experience I've ever had at 1 of these places. I don't know how to prescribe it, but it's just I never remember. I don't know if anyone's seen that McDonald's movie, the founder and Michael Keaton, the founder goes up to a McDonald's and orders, a hamburger fries and a Coke. And as he's getting the change and 5 seconds later, he gets the meal. Well, as you know, that has but if you ever go to some of these locations, I'm not talking about every location. But I've experienced this at the let's see it is the Sheridan road. Location north of laola university and oh my God, I ordered the food. Got the change went to the end of the counter with my cup and the food was there before I made it to grab the cup before I made it to the end of the counter 10 steps away to grab my cup. The food was ready before I grabbed my cup to get my they make get your own drinks but yes, that's the only thing it literally got ready. And was there.So if you want to experience fast food, go to a raising canes just before their busy hours.Say ten p m“

“I stopped by Byrd’s Hot Chicken and it definitely delivers on the heat. The space is casual and no-frills, the kind of place you go when you’re craving something bold and messy in the best way.

The Nashville-style hot chicken sandwich was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and packed with flavor. The spice level actually means something here — even the medium has a solid kick, but it’s balanced with just enough sweetness and tang. The fries were perfectly crispy and held up well next to the saucy chicken.

Service was quick and straightforward, which fits the vibe. Overall, Byrd’s Hot Chicken is a solid go-to when you want comfort food with real heat and big flavor, no fuss, just good spicy chicken done right.“

“Fantastic chikfila visit.

“The food here is always good, but I wanted to leave this review because of a young man named Michael. When I came in here with my little two-year-old girl, he helped me so much. Brought our food and made sure she had everything so that we were comfortable. I really appreciate his helpful, friendly demeanor.

When people treat me and my family so well, it makes me want come back again and again“

“Stopped by Hot N' Spicy Chicago on Devon Ave for a late-night bite and was impressed. Grabbed the Chicken Chutney Roll—tender chicken wrapped in a soft paratha with a tangy chutney kick. Also tried the Masala Fries, which were crispy and packed with flavor. The staff was friendly, and the place had a cozy vibe. If you're in the area and craving a flavorful halal meal, this spot is worth checking out. Definitely coming back to try more of their menu.“

“I didn’t dine, but it was decent sized space. The host was very receptive as soon I walked in to pick my order. Very great service from initial experience. The food was delicious especially the fried chicken. The Rose Deokkbokki was really great as well. The Kimchi Fried rice hit the spot for sure. Very genuine Korean tasting food.“
