18 Best Chicken Restaurants in Lexington

“My son had been asking for a knock your socks off amazing chicken sandwich. This place kept popping up. Even better they had a promotion for an adult happy meal (that's the best way I can explain it) with a x men 97 toy. It was a win win for me and I will definitely be going back. The staff was so friendly and the food was great. It's a little hole in a wall place with good food and good people.“

“I was did drank an one ½ sweet ½ unsweet tea and it's was delicious. During my social moment with the kind people on the cash registers, I feel welcomed and honored to dine on Canes DB1.“

“This chain restaurant is doing something different than most. The employees are actually nice and act like they like their job and it shows. The food time and quality blows most fast food places today away. Example McDonald's next door takes twice as long and the employees all act pissed off. This is by far a better choice for lunch when time and peace of mind matters“

“I'm so impressed with the staff that was on duty the evening we came to celebrate my sons birthday. Our group of kids made a mess, but the counter clerk was absolutely the most gracious about it and insisted she take care of the clean up!! They had our tailgate food hot and ready as requested. Thank you Zack King General Manager and your team“

“Been coming here many times for years and haven’t had an issue I recall, at least nothing notable. This recent visit was no exception. Drive thru was relatively quick. I took it back to my office a couple blocks away and was still pretty warm. Tasted great as usual.“

“I love Slim Chicken! Atmosphere was great. Food was FANTASTIC! Ty was very friendly,attentive and served with a smile. I would definitely be back.“

“Awesome place to dine. One of my favorite places to eat.“

“Had the pleasure of trying chicken salad chick for the first time. The whole experience was 10/10. I was overwhelmed with the choices because everything sounded so good. Everyone chose something different so we could try a little bit of everything and it was all phenomenal. I loved how each option came with pickle spear, plenty of crackers and a cookie. The prices were low and quality high.“

“Food is very hot! The sauce selection is almost impossible to choose from. The dessert jars hit every time and i felt comfortable with my children running around at times. The staff was exceptionally kid friendly. We will be back.“

“I walked into Chick Fil A today like a king inspecting one of his lesser kingdoms. The grilled chicken combo was waiting for me like it knew greatness had arrived. I swear the staff smiled so hard you would think I was the CEO doing a surprise inspection.

The sandwich itself? It is fine. Not life changing. Not legendary. Just fine. It is the kind of meal you give your whiny kids when you want them to stop complaining and pretend they are eating something “healthy.” The grilled chicken has that signature Chick Fil A flavor that whispers, “We tried.” The bun is soft enough to impress people who think bread is a personality trait.

The fries? Waffle shaped for no reason other than to distract you from the fact that they are basically edible packing material. But sure, everyone acts like they are divine. People love anything that looks quirky. It is the same reason they think their opinions matter.

The service is the real show. Chick Fil A employees act like they are auditioning for a role in a movie called “Customer Service Heaven.” They hand you your food like it is a sacred artifact. It is adorable. It is dramatic. It is completely unnecessary. But it is also the only reason people pretend the food is elite.

Overall, the grilled chicken combo is perfect for anyone who wants to feel like they made a responsible choice while still eating fast food. It is a great place to butter up your kids, calm down your relatives, and pretend you are living your best life. Meanwhile I sit there knowing I am the most interesting thing in the building.“

“There is nothing on this menu I would not recommend. The grilled chicken is amazing, and of course their fried chicken is very tasty. If you have a specific request to your order they will accommodate whether that is adding or subtracting something. This Chick Fil A is our go to fast food restaurant. The wait is not long to get your order in your hands and it is juicy and delicious. The employees are so friendly and customer oriented. Rare you go somewhere that entire staff appreciate your business. Don’t forget to use your QRC code to get points that add up . I just started using after going here for years and I have already used some for a free meal.“

“this was a first time for me eating at this place and I give it 10 stars if it could go that high. the people who works there are amazing and so respectful to me and everyone else in line. this is diffidently a place to eat. the 6 ounce rib with 2 sides tasted great. I've eat at a lot of different places over the 40 years driving a semi and this place is in my top 5 to go places. if you love good chicken and ribs you got to try this place...“

“Yessss 😍🍗 I am absolutely in love with the deliciousness of fried chicken livers! There’s just something about that crispy outside and tender, flavorful inside that makes me so happy every single time. I swear, I cannot leave Kentucky without getting some fried chicken — it’s basically a requirement at this point! 😂✨

And let me tell you, it just hits differently here. I’m convinced it’s way better than anything you could find in NYC. The flavor, the seasoning, the texture — everything tastes homemade and authentic 🙌💛

You can truly tell they cook with love and pride, and that passion comes through in every bite. It’s not just food, it’s comfort and tradition on a plate 🥰🔥 Kentucky fried chicken will always have my heart!“

“This was my first time ever eating at a Chick-fil-A restaurant and I can honestly say I do wish I'd decided to eat here a long time ago! The food was amazing, the service was awesome & we received our food very quickly. No wait time really at all. Plus it was fresh so that's a huge plus to me. Id highly recommend this restaurant to anyone & I'll definitely be eating here again!“

“This is the best CFA in town!“
