“Just had the best experience eating at popeyes today with my son. staff was great, food was so fresh and delicious. I don't usually choose popeyes when i come out to eat, but I definitely will be coming back way more often! If you haven't tried their nuggets, do it now!“

“Top notch food and service 👌 5 stars 🌟“

“After a rough couple of weeks, I really needed a win — and Sticky Fingers in Algonquin delivered in a big way. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with genuine Southern hospitality.

We ordered fried shrimp, wings, and fries, and I’m not exaggerating when I say I’ve never seen shrimp or wings this big. The homemade breading was golden perfection — light, crisp, and some of the best I can remember. The sauces were spot-on, adding just the right kick, and the fries nailed that magic balance: crispy outside, fluffy inside.

The little touches here really add to the charm. A bucket of lollipops and a bottle of Frank’s Hot Sauce sit on every table, and the décor gives the whole place a playful, welcoming vibe. Their canned soda selection is a nostalgic throwback — every flavor I loved as a kid — and the staff was so attentive and warm. Big smiles! They truly care about your experience.

Prices are very reasonable, and the daily specials make it even better (Lobster Sundays, anyone?). I even overheard other diners promising to return — and same here. I told the staff to get to know my face, because I’ll be back often!

Four more words: — Banana pudding. Caramel cake. 😮“

“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.“

“The food was actually incredible. That to me is always the most important and I got the chicken legs and thigh with a dry rub, the outside of the chicken was crispy and the inside was juicy.

One important note is for the best experience it's worth eating at the restaurant fresh. When the food comes out hot it's at its best.“

“3--4 Piece chicken fingers“

“Their grilled chicken tenders are the best! Be patient - they take a while if you go through the drive-thru! But it is well worth the wait! They are always fresh and seasoned perfectly. The young men who work in the drive-thru are always so kind and polite.
I have never dined in, so I can't comment on that. And I always just get the tenders so I can't comment on any other food items.“

“The RICE BALLS are to die for!!! Chicken so tender and juicy ;-)“

Great place I drive from Schaumburg“

“I recently visited Chick‑fil‑A and was impressed by the efficiency and warmth of the service—employees were attentive, friendly, and the classic “My pleasure” goes a long way toward making the experience pleasant . The food stood out: their chicken tenders were crispy and well-seasoned, offering great value for the portion , and breakfast options like the Egg White Grill provide a flavorful, protein-rich, on-the-go choice .

Some minor drawbacks emerged: orders can occasionally be inaccurate, especially during peak times, and wait times can stretch longer than expected . A recent recipe change to the waffle fries—adding pea starch for crispiness—has disappointed fans who now find a grainy texture and less flavor .

Overall, Chick-fil-A delivers consistent, tasty chicken and standout customer care. Just be prepared for potential small delays or order mix-ups, and some loyalists might miss the old fries.“

“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! 😘“

“Nice crispy chicken, just the way it should be... If you call ahead they can make it as crispy or less crispy according to your taste. The gentleman serving there is always nice and extremely polite. I go there for my lunch sometimes as it is close to my work... Fast food with fast service is what I get during the short time.“

“yannin said she’d take care of our big order herself. She did amazing with time and reassuring us with the accuracy of the quality of food. Everything was highlighted on the receipt to make sure everything was there. Very satisfied with her service overall with serving with a great big smile“

“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!“

“Wanted to give a huge shoutout to Alyssa today I hope I spelled it right I’m so sorry if I didnt !But she fixed my order when I had came in today and ordered some sandwich’s and got handed with pickles very allergic for me !!! She fixed my meal right away ! Appreciate it so much ! We need more managers like her !!!! Keeps me coming back ! Great staff :)“

“Everything on their menu is good. I like their spicy chicken sandwich and order it occasionally but their southwest salad is my personal favorite. Food is good and their employment are friendly. Occasionally have gotten the wrong sauce or none during rush but it’s not big of a deal since it’s rarer for that to happen now.“

“The staff here is amazing! I came here for my lunch break and accidently ordered the wrong meal. I was looking at the price and said #8 please, all I waned was that picture of the chicken sandwich in my mouth. I was confused why they asked me for white or dark meat on my sandwich but still went with it lol. Its just been a long week and I forgot my head. When I pulled away and saw what I actually ordered, I was horrified because its something id never eat. I have a bad experience eating chicken with bones in. I went back through the drive thru and spoke to the kind gentleman at the window with glasses and a hat. I explained that I totally messed up when ordering. He was so sweet, understanding and said some very kinds words. He made me the correct sandwich and oh boy, was it the best chicken sandwich ever!!! They couldn't take the other chicken back so I donated it to someone else who was hungry. Thank you Carol Stream KFC team!“
