“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’m so glad Dave’s Hot Chicken brought back the Hot mozz bread! It was a real highlight, and it’s great to see them being creative again. I also love that Dave’s isn’t stingy with their special sauce, setting them apart from so many others. I really hope they keep innovating with fun items like corndogs,keep up the great work!“

“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 loved this place since the day I started ordering it! I order this almost every week or every other week when I’m at work in the evening. 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!“

Love this spot“

“This is one of the best chicken sandwiches you can get in Chicago. The biscuits are exceptional. The service there is fantastic! I only have one issue and it's that have they never have the biscuit batter because it's always sold out. 🤷🏾‍♂. The price on the drinks are also incredibly reasonable for a Roscoe village restaurant. Definitely recommend!“

“The chicken bowls are amazing and a good value. Most of our party were able to take leftovers for the next day. The sauce choices are incredibly flavorful, you can't go wrong. Personally I liked the mild spice, lemon pepper chicken thighs. The server was very helpful and courteous. Overall, a great choice for a meal while in Chicago.“

“the lady at the counter was very nice! we ordered an 8 piece tender meal with three sauces and two drinks, paid $21 ! chicken is so fresh and delicious i love the soft but crispy breading. the fries were a little cold but i still love a shoestring fry. both the BBQ and the ranch was delicious a great way to add to the tender“

“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.“

“Amazing salads and even more amazing people!“

“Came across this gem on our way to Chicago for a concert. Delicious wings and shrimp, generous portions, and most of all the owner was welcoming and engaging. Would definitely make a special trip back!“

“some of the best chicken I have ever eaten love that season and a perch is off the chain I recommend you try best in the West“

“Grabbed this to go on a whim and really enjoyed what I had. Ordered medium and it was a good spice level, but if you are sensative to spice, I would opt for the mild as it was hotter than I expected. Their portions are great for the price too. Was worried when I saw waffel fries because you usually only get a handful, but their bag was loaded. Will be coming back 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!“

“Thank you for all of your services. Good food“

“Hot Chi Chicken is my go-to for fried chicken in the Loop. Stopped in for a late lunch, grabbed the spicy chicken sandwich combo, 6 wings, and fries. The sandwich had that perfect crunch and just enough heat. Wings were juicy, not greasy. Service was quick even with a crowd. Solid downtown chicken spot.“

“I had an awesome experience here! The people were super friendly, the food was great, the best Mexican food in the area. I would definitely recommend to family and friends or anyone in general. It's a lovely experience, and i do want to add that the decorations are beautiful. Really makes you feel safe and comfortable as you're enjoying your meal with some nice coffee.“

“I ordered the chicken tip & wing combo and the Jerk chicken egg rolls 😋 everything was a hit!! 🔥 sauce is delicious can't wait to try something else from the menu💯“

“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.“

“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 🤷“

“I pass by this place every weekend and I stopped by for the first time today and wow the food was amazing the chicken was perfect ! The mash potatoes were great and the mac and cheese was on point !!! I received my food really fast as well! I will be returning !!! Give this place a try !“

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

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

“Tacos tacos and more tacos. Very good tacos! Highly recommended.“
