50 Best Chicken Restaurants near Aspen Hill

“Gio’s chicken is the only place in the DMV that makes me feel like I’m in the homeland with their delicious authentic nicaraguan dishes. Definitely will be coming more often. Service was great, the staff is very friendly and took their time to explain all my questions. Definitely worth the money.“

“Ordered tacos. Cashier mistakenly rang us for something else. But they ended up fixing it for us. Very helpful. And the food was AMAZING! The pollo was tender and the sauce with onions and cilantro made it even better. Would definitely recommend!“

“The crispy mushroom sandwich was one of the best sandwiches I’ve ever. So crispy and full of flavor. Mac n cheese was pretty top shelf as well. Fast and friendly service.“

“The food is absolutely amazing 👏!“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Crisp & Juicy delivers exactly what its name promises—perfectly cooked Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken that’s both mouthwateringly juicy on the inside and satisfyingly crisp on the outside. The chicken is marinated in traditional Peruvian spices, slow-roasted, and served with a smoky, addictive flavor that’s hard to replicate. Their signature green and yellow sauces take everything to the next level—whether you’re dipping the chicken, fries, or even just spooning it straight. It’s simple, flavorful, and consistently well-executed.

Beyond the chicken, the sides round out the experience: yuca fries that are golden and crunchy, flavorful rice, and plantains that add a touch of sweetness. The portions are generous, the service is quick, and the vibe is laid-back—perfect for takeout or a casual meal. Crisp & Juicy doesn’t try to be fancy—it just does one thing really well: comfort food with bold flavor. It’s the kind of place that turns first-timers into loyal regulars“

“Stayed at a local hotel and ordered from Door Dash. SECRET SPICY CHICKEN was great. Pretty much like General Tso's Chinese but a tad spicier. Large pieces of good quality chicken, even the medium order was too much for me. Pair it with steamed white rice, put the rice in the sauce. Very good.“

“I have ate and picked up takeout many times at the Crisp & Juicy on my way home from running errands or after a long bike ride and the food is always good and the service friendly. Today I got the Grill combination platter and the fries were cooked to perfection, nice and crispy. The chicken and sausage were delicious. If you want consistently yummy food at a good price make the crisp and juicy one of your regular spots.“

“Very generous serving size and good quality food- we ordered a gyro and bang bang chicken with plantains and green beans. We ordered the little dolce le leche cookies and yucca fries on the side- omg, everything was so tasty and filling! We grabbed it for the ride back to southern VA and it did not disappoint!“

“Very nicely priced tasty dinners- half chicken with suitably prepared sides- plantains, rice and beans, vegetable rice. Spicy sauces also can kick up the flavor a notch. Pleasant courteous professional staff in a clean well lighted place. I will recommend to come here“

“Today was much busier than usual, but Terril never let the pressure affect the customer experience. He stayed calm, kept the orders moving, and handled both patient and difficult customers with professionalism and respect.
Even with how hectic it was, he made sure everyone was taken care of and left satisfied. I'm not sure what his position is at the Silver Spring location, but he's definitely a huge asset to the team. Great customer service, a great attitude, and hard work like that doesn't go unnoticed. Hats off to Terrill for doing an amazing job. I'Il definitely be coming back!“

“No matter what time of day, this is THE BEST Peruvian Chicken around!“

“The original Rotisserie chicken is season perfectly, I love the corn salad it marinates with the campero rice as well“

“It was so good and loved the spice blend. The portion was huge and took a minute to devour the sando. With the spice and the sweetness of the cabbage was perfection. The fried okra with the dip was good.
The gentleman at the cash register was cute, my eyes also got a treat.“

“Everything was amazing!!! But them Brussel sprouts!!!! Legit on another level! Legit could turn anyone who hates them into fans!! 9 out of 10 for everything!!“

“Excellent customer service, and food was hot and tested good All the people very professional“

“I love the nandos experience....the area is very calming and very easy on the eye..if I ever move to DC that is the area to be in..much respect to Tammy..and the young guy who came to ask if we were good...yes people lets do our part to keep them employed...good job“

“I had such a great experience here last night right before closing. Even that close to the end of the night (9:55pm), the staff was incredibly kind, patient, & welcoming. You would’ve thought they had just opened for the day. The Manager Alexis was so professional & friendly, & Santiago’s heart of kindness & servitude, especially being in his first week, did an amazing job!!! Their positive attitudes & customer service really stood out & made my entire night better. Thank you both for going above & beyond! You rock!!!!🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼“

“Great service and very good food.“

“First trip to this fast food location and I finally understand the hype. We got half spicy and not. The chicken was juicy but spicy. Don’t underestimate the little flags that say spicy on the chicken because the spice level is on point. The adobo rice was dangerously addictive, and the gravy deserves its own fan club. The spaghetti caught me off guard because it was so sweet and had hotdog pieces in it. It’s definitely unique as a fast food option and more on the fun, kid-friendly side than traditional pasta, but for sure if you have a toddler, he or she will enjoy eating it. The Palabok was different because it had a strong shrimp flavor. The guava, lychee, and pineapple drinks were all refreshing and not your typical fast food drink options. Ordering through the app was easy, and pickup was a breeze. Overall, delicious 😋“

“Always love getting their grilled chicken, and Carlos always brings a smile to my face whenever he works. Jose got me hooked on their Pollo sauce and I keep begging them to sell the sauce in a jar (lol) love the friendly staff and the Bethesda spot is by far my favorite location“

“Thank you to Clarksville Chick Fil A for supporting the 2021 Alzheimer’s Walk at centennial park! We appreciate all of your support for the community!“

“Yummy“

“Nice neighborhood & foods“

“Great little place! First time here, so did not try their corn dogs. But, wow, probably the best chicken tenders I've ever had! Amazing soft, juicy, intensely flavorful. They had like 5 or 6 dipping sauces, and I got hot so my mouth is now completely on fire. Next time will likely choose medium.“

“Great customer service prices are good as well“

“the friendly atmosphere the food was AWESOME“

“Muy rico 😋 el pollo Popeyes“

“Amazing! I went here this morning, 3/28 around 10am, and the staff was amazzinggg extremely friendly went completely above and beyond. Every last person there was great. They offered to refill my coffee, cleaned our table, took the extra time no other place does to help us with our complicated order. You can’t find customer service like this anymore. A gem 💎“

“Peri Peri chicken and sauce“

“It's always delicious to pass by a campero! In this establishment the cashier was very friendly and attentive! And the table area was clean.

Parking: It has ample parking, you just have to be careful since the drive thru is a few steps from the entrance. It is necessary to be attentive.“

“My neighbor and I just stopped in 9-25-25 on our way home from work. I’ve tried all the chicken spots. This is the best I’ve had!!! The staff… super friendly. The beans and rice... amazing! That chicken was fresh and hot!
We will come back soon!“

“Excellent as always, great food as well the service, Lucy was very kind with us, and obviously we’re coming back next time“

“My family and I enjoy the delicious catfish, pork chop dinners and siders monthly very much. The menu drinks are very good too.“

“During the Quarantine we ordered on the phone and picked up. Delicious whole chicken, mashed potatoes, mixed veggies. $20.00. All the rules of the pandemic were followed to the “T” . Found new place for take-out.“

“They don’t speak a lick of English but DAMN do they know they way around a kitchen and plate.

Pulled up otw home from out the city. I have an hour drive and I do not feel like I’ll have the bandwidth to cook tonight. Got half chicken with two sides and MAAM, Abuela in the back knows how to throw together an amazing dinner.

No excessive wait, efficiency and a good meal. It’s now the go to when I don’t feel like cooking“

“The food was awesome! Atmosphere was beautiful 🤩“

“Food is excellent! Service is good they are quick to serve and friendly. The atmosphere is so so not the best in terms of dining in. I mean, it's ok but not a nice fancy style sit-down restaurant. Bottom line is the food is very good and the price for the food you get is well worth it.“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“LOVE THIS PLACE! The food is delicious and the orange sauce is to die for. My all time favorite ❤️“

“Comida muy rica bien ambiente familiar y buen Costumer servicice❤️“

“I went to Crisp and Juicy on April 23rd, in the evening alone. I hadn't been to the restaurant in a long time, so I was a little indecisive on what I wanted. The young lady that was at the register was as sweet as could be, and I'm sorry I didn't get her name. I wanted to order a platter for 2, and asked what her recommendation was to feed 2 people. So, I ordered what she recommended, and asked for a lot of sauce. The order came up quick, and I thanked her. Bless her. She gave me so much sauce. I just wanted everyone to know how much this impacted my evening, because my oldest daughter Ayanna loved your restaurant! She was murdered in 2020. She was 18 years old. This small act really touched my heart. Thank you! 🥰🥰🥰“

“It's exactly what you'd expect from a Chinese carry out. The food is good, always comes hot, but they aren't great with special instructions. I recommend repeating yourself multiple times if you want then to alter anything. I've asked them not to put lettuce in with my spare ribs many times, and more often than not, they put it in there anyway. I know it's only a garnish, but steamed lettuce smells awful. On the plus side, the food is typically ready quickly, and the vegetables taste fresh. They do have a couple tables, but it's counter service take out.“

“Outstanding , 5 star, best fried chicken !Not oily or greasy, just Great taste and local place, try it out!“

“(Translated by Google) It is a good restaurant serving South American food because almost all the meals are similar, the attention is very good(Original)Es un buen restaurante de comida sud americana pues casi todas las comidas son parecidas la atención muy buena“

“This place is so good!! wedges are top notch taking fries to a whole different level, not to mention how highly addictive the honey butter biscuits!!!! These are the types of places you can’t sleep on. I’m never disappointed, give it try.“

“There’s no words to describe how good the food is. And there’s no words to describe how cool and nice the ppl working there are. And let me repeat, words fail to describe how GOOOD the food is. You can spend 70 dollars at Bethesda for a 32 dollar meal here that can fill you up for up to 3 days. Hands down the best silver spring secret.“
