Chicken Shops near College Park, MD

“I went in and was kindly greeted by the front desk worker! The service was speedy and superb and the food was delicious. I got the jumbo slice combo with the free fountain drink and enjoyed every bite. Nice atmosphere with plenty to watch on the TV’s.“

“Always a reliable go-to for quick, tasty food and genuinely friendly service. The staff is consistently polite and efficient, and the food comes out fresh every time. I usually get the classic chicken strips and chicken sandwiches- both are crispy, juicy, and just really satisfying. The waffle fries are a must, they are actually the only fries I will eat (I love the half Toto have waffle ones) and their sauces are some of the best out there. Great place when you want fast food that has a lot of protein, always crispy, and you know is reliably good!“

“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.“

“Been to his old location in Arlington and frequent his current location. Not only a great person, provides great food and hospitality!“

“Awesome“

“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!“

“Stop by there with one of my great nephews to grab a bite (he's always raving about the food there! Me, I love the ice cream) to eat. The cashier was friendly and atmosphere was good!
The one thing that really touch me was the people working there didn't throw out the one woman asking food for her and another woman to share. 💖 She wasn't being aggressive or anything just sitting at a table with the other woman. I bought them some food and drinks. But, that experience also taught me that any kind of circumstances can happen to anyone to cause you to fall into that same situation, you never know. I felt grateful walking out of there. ☺️🙏 I guess that's why I forgot my cookie! 😂 But I felt great! ♥️“

“Had a good experience at Peri Peri. I got the Peri Chicken Wrap. It was tasty. Some of the chicken was a little chewy but all in all it had good flavor and for the most part the chicken was tender. I got the mango and lime with the hot sauce. It was really tasty. I also got the Peri fries. They were really good as well. The white sauce they gave is really good with the fries. I am not sure if that sauce was intended to eat with the wraps or not. The wraps were messy but that is when food tastes the best. I will definitely be returning to try other items.

The service was also really good. The cashier took her time with us and was very patient as my family decided what they wanted to order. They also got a delivery during our visit and the manager/owner (guessing) offered him a free water/drink. I thought that was really nice.“

“love there perinaise sauce its amazing on fried fish and fries and makes a killer blt“

“Great Food!!! Need one in Ann Arundle county🥰“

“EASILY one of THE BEST burgers I’ve ever had! And I LOOOOVE burgers! It’s seasoned to perfection! The hun is soft and buttery with a light toast to it! And It digest so well! Quality is A+++++++++++ Never had bad service! I love it here!! 😃🤤“

“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!“

“Chicken and Mac was 🔥 🔥 🔥“

“Passing through Maryland we were hungry and wanted seafood drove 20 minutes out of our way to try a place in the same strip mall.
We were so glad to stumble.on this place
.its been over 10 years since I've had Korean food. It didnt disappoint. So much FLAVOR so fresh!!! If we lived in the area this would be a weekly stop! I had the Bimbimbap.iy was outstanding. My husband had the BBQ chicken and said he has never had chicken so tender!!“

“Great place to grab a chicken and cheese sub. Plenty of chicken for another sandwich…lol. Love this spot.“

“Astro Doughnuts in D.C. absolutely delivered. I tried the classic glazed and the maple bacon, and both were genuinely mouth‑watering. The glaze had that perfect light sweetness and soft texture, while the maple bacon struck the ideal balance of salty, smoky, and sweet without being overwhelming.

If you’re craving doughnuts that feel indulgent but thoughtfully crafted, Astro is a must‑visit. I’ll definitely be back to explore more of their flavors.“

“we LOVE Chick-fil-A anywhere, but this new on in DC is Amaaaaaaazing!!! Clean and neat! The staff is SO friendly! The owner is awesome and helps the community.“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!“

“Both the service and food were outstanding 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟The spicy miso soup was delicious, and the noodles were incredibly chewy. I loved it!“

“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“

“Best chicken!! Hope they will open a store in FL“

“I had an amazing experience at Dave’s Hot Chicken, and a big part of that was thanks to Terrill. From the moment I walked in, he was welcoming, professional, and genuinely friendly. He took the time to make sure my order was exactly right and even gave great recommendations.

What really stood out was his attitude—he was patient, upbeat, and clearly cares about giving customers a great experience. Even when it got busy, he stayed calm and kept everything moving smoothly without making anyone feel rushed.

It’s not every day you come across someone who goes above and beyond like that. Terrill definitely made my visit better, and because of him, I’ll be coming back for sure. Dave’s Hot Chicken is lucky to have him!“

“🌶❤️🌶 We love the delicious chicken at Nando’s! They have awesome vegetarian items as well! Get the warm pastels de Natas for dessert. Life changing!!“

“Best Peruvian chicken, everything else is just charbroil chicken. Nothing compares to the flavor. The only dislike I have is that the beans count as a side, and rice counts as another side. Rice and bean should be a single side, in my opinion. What do guys think? Other than that, it would've been a 5 star rating.“

“Everything was really good, we got wings and red snapper (I ordered catfish but didn’t understand me) the wings were fresh and crispy, I got lemon pepper wet and the fried rice was great. There’s a bit of a language barrier, they mostly speak Spanish, but other than that 10/10“

“The food was excellent. I have never had South African cuisine before, and it made me wish I had access to it at home.“

“fast service, great food, and the best Peruvian-style chicken in Columbia Heights.“

“The food is really good the Mac and cheese was my favorite probably because it was unexpected from a restaurant but it really is homemade (like Thanksgiving homemade)!

My only complaint is that the rice was a little hard and the customer service with the checkout personnel was inattentive I’m big on customer service interactions when I’m spending my money somewhere. (Could be I came 20 mins after opening) They were although kind in greeting and departure

Other than that the oxtails were very tender (fall off the boat melt in your mouth type) and meaty avoiding much fat that’s usually with this meal from other places , and I believe the portion were okay for the price. The gravy was well seasoned.

I had the agave vanilla soda with a splash of root bear, IT WAS SO GOOD! Never had it before.

Overall the atmosphere is good , has lots of seating in an open area with a TV, I watched a basketball game as I ate. Music was ofcourse Caribbean music which I enjoyed also.Food was also really hot and ready to serve no wait! Meal Price ~ 27$
Parking may vary“

“It was my first visit to this restaurant. I wanted wings and they have several options. I chose the Boneless Gangnam Style since I prefer spicy food. My wait was about fifteen minutes for carryout. My food smelled so good that my mouth was watering before I even got back in my car. The wings did not disappoint. They were delicious. I also got the Sweet Potato Fries and they were quite good and not greasy. I will be back.“

“When I lived in Botswana in 2005 I used to go to Nando's all the time... Then I heard they came to DC and started spreading across US. I was finally able to come to one here and I was not disappointed. Awesome service and great chicken. Definitely recommend“

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

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was.

“I recently ordered through Postmates from this location for delivery. I got the spring rolls, mango sticky rice, and curry puffs.

The spring rolls were really good, they had I think glass noodles along with the veggies inside. They are quite small so they give you 4 of them.

The curry puffs are an item I have gotten from multiple restaurants and theirs were on the small size but they give you 3 instead of the usual 2. They were a bunch more spicy compared to others and it was too spicy for my liking. This is the only time I haven't finished an order of curry puffs due to taste. The cucumber-vinegar sauce also wasn't very good. It wasn't vinegary enough, basically tasted watered down and this is a crucial part of the dish, so I was a bit disappointed.

The mango stick rice was incredibly good! The mango was perfectly fresh and ripe! They give you a decent portion of sticky rice with coconut and such on top. If for no other reason I'll be ordering from them again just to get more of this and to try other dishes!

A suggestion: one thing that would improve my experience and enjoyment is if the store had a sweet plum type sauce that wasn't spicy that was made in the restaurant with good natural ingredients. Many of the prepackaged sauces have ingredients I'm unable to eat due to food allergies. I would pay more, and order more often if I really liked the sauce. One example in the market is Chipotle makes their Polynesian sauce that I buy in the large bottles because it's the only sweet and sour type sauce I can eat and use it for all stores nuggets because they make it themselves without all the artificial ingredients. I also order coconut shrimp from red lobster as opposed to other places because I love their pina colada sauce.... just a thought. There are a lot of us who can't eat the artificial stuff. Msg is another one that commonly is a problem for those with migraine and it would be great if you had a good alternative. I think restaurants underestimate the value of a good sauce from scratch.“

“Great atmosphere and amazing hot sauces!!!!! A must if you are in town!!“

“The combination between African and Portuguese is espectacular!“

“A huge menu. Chicken and Waffles! All of the breakfast meat is turkey!“

“I've only been once to this location and only ordered a chicken sandwich which was magnificent 🤤. We have fined in another location out in California on our first time and really enjoyed it. The staff here is very pleasant, friendly, and professional.“

“I was new to the area and just finished a job and was extremely hungry. After scrolling around I found a place that had some food I recognized. Little did I know it would be one of the best plates I’ve had EVER! I had the chicken wings with O.G. Hot Sauce. OMG!!! The crispy breading. The flavor. The tender meat. I couldn’t stop licking my fingers. The waffle fries were well seasoned and fresh. I enjoyed myself thoroughly. I also want to add that the hostess was so patient with me because I didn’t have a clue what I was going to get. Absolutely outstanding. Five stars all around.“

“First time even hearing about peri peri chicken but wanted to be adventurous. Every single item of my order was filled incredible flavor. I’m talking lick you lips and ask for more type flavor. It’s the one place I have revisit once I’m back. 🥰🥰“

“Food was good but they cheap with sauce. You bought 1 order of 1/2chicken w/2sides you get the same amount of sauce for 4 orders of 1/2 chicken. This is in Bowie Md location. I guess I am not coming back there again.“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!“

“Nice neighborhood & foods“

“Great food, I'm so glad one is in Laurel MD now!“

“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!“

“Very good food 🥘 nice place and more“

“I'm not a big fan of chicken tenders, but this place is my exception. They're cooked just right, super tender and seasoned perfectly with just the right amount of crunch. The fries are always fresh and they're not stingy with the portions. They give you your money's worth. The wait may be a bit long, but it's worth it to have cooked to order freshness. The tea or lemonade is nicely sweetened. The staff are friendly and helpful. Overall a nice experience.“

“Atmosphere and food was good, the only complain is that I'm waiting at the pick up area for my food and the cashier turns around and looks at me but doesn't greet or ask me if I need anything. Mind you he doesn't have a single customer waiting to get their order taken, it's just me and 2 other persons waiting for their orders. So in conclusion the cashier and other staff continue talking among themselves and I'm still patiently waiting for my food. Plus I can see my order in the counter all ready, so I just wanted anyone to hand it to me. After like 4 minutes I decide to speak up and ask if someone is helping at the pick up area so then he finally walks over and helps me. I don't like to complain but like come on, just hand me my order and I'll leave. Overall I still plan to go back to this location.“

“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.“

“The food was awesome! Atmosphere was beautiful 🤩“
