Chicken Shops near Gaithersburg, MD

“Friendly staff and great food!“

“This place is almost always hopping so we decided to try it for ourselves. The chicken was very flavorful and juicy, the yucca had good flavor but also was very soggy by the time we got home a little less than 10 minutes later. The beans were a bland, but the Peruvian fried rice was top notch.

It won't replace our normal go to spot for pollo a la brasa but it's easy to see why these guys have been in business since the 80s. Would definitely recommend trying this spot out.“

“The wings and everything so far here are so much better then the Clopper Rd. and Rockville locations. Was skeptical because of those 2 places over the years that they have made us not to order from them anymore, but we will absolutely continue to order from here if they continue to serve like they have.“

“Fire! My son and a friend love it. I am starting to warm up to it. We eat there often breakfast, lunch or dinner ! Oh! They have a great system of having people come take your order while you are in line. This is cool! Gives people work and speeds up the service for customers! Congratulations.“

“Yummy“

“Peri Peri chicken and sauce“

“We are so pleased with this amazing restaurant! They are so understanding & so welcoming. We have been here 2 times & planning on going a 3rd time in the next few weeks!😄😄 Great service & food all around!“

“This was my favorite Chick-fil-A. Due to an error on my part, i ordered pickup instead of curbside. When I got to the restaurant I called and they said no problem they would bring it out. 21 minutes later i went inside and got my warm shake and cold sandwich. Shame on me for believing they would correct my mistake ?“

“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.“

“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!“

“A lil customer service goes a long way! I feel like nowadays customer service is nonexisting, so the moment I have a pleasant experience…. off to reviews!!

I was there yesterday and inquired about their sauce and the employee was really sweet about. I appreciated his kind gesture and it made me love this place even more.

The food is always consistent. They give solid portions and the price is more than reasonable. Definitely recommend!“

“🔥 Welcome to Flavortown, King Farm, Rockville edition! Don Chicken is the kind of hidden gem that Guy Fieri dreams about on a cross-country food quest. Tucked away just enough to feel like you’ve discovered something special, this Korean fried chicken joint is serving up the best bird in town, no contest. The soy garlic wings are straight-up crispy dynamite: golden, sticky, and packed with a punch of sweet-savory goodness that’ll have you licking your fingers and asking for round two. It’s a flavor explosion that hits all the right notes.

🐙 And if you’re feeling adventurous, the baby octopus fried bites are little crispy rockets of oceanic joy, perfectly seasoned, perfectly crunchy, and totally addictive. The vibe here is warm and welcoming, thanks to the kind and friendly owners who treat every guest like family. Sure, it’s a bit tucked away, but trust me, it’s worth the hunt. Don Chicken isn’t just a meal, it’s a full-throttle flavor ride. So grab your crew, roll in hungry, and prepare to have your taste buds blown into next week. Highly recommend!“

“We were initially reluctant to try this place because my son is vegetarian. So we were surprised by how much vegetarian options they had, not just sides. My son had the veggie burrito but they also had a veggie platter, veggie quesadillas, veggie empanadas, and taco salad (ask for no chicken). My husband had the salcipapa, which is a Peruvian street snack of sausages and fries. Nice clean sitting area too.“

“Great service and very good food.“

“We really enjoyed our dine-in meal of: Thai green curry with shrimp, Szechuan green beans, Triple delight and pan fried noodles with shrimp. Everything was delicious! The new decor is lovely and the staff are very welcoming. Looking forward to trying the home-made dumplings next time.“

“The last 3 times we used the drive through our order was wrong. Sometimes the sauces were wrong, Sometimes the dressing for the salad and today the milkshake was handed to my husband in such a way that it wound up in his lap. We love your food but your service is in need of improvement.“

“Unlike any place I’ve ever eaten. I’ll be back; the options are endless!“

“The Olney store is clean and comfortable. I especially liked the way the manager, Brian, was observant when two staff members were being unprofessional. Even though they were off the clock, they were still in uniform eating in the dining area. He spoke discreetly with them because they were being loud. He also cleared my tray for me, which is uncommon these days in a fast food restaurant. I'd return to this location again and again. The food is fresh and so yummy!“

“Once again, this location can not get my order correct. Ongoing issue since covid. I'm done with them“

“It's impossible not to compare Don Pollo to other local Peruvian chicken places, like Crisp & Juicy or el Pollo Rico. Because of that there's a high bar set. The chicken is fresh, juicy, and well seasoned, but I'd have preferred a more crispy skin. The black beans and rice lacked flavor, definitely needed salt. The fries were where they lost me. They weren't fresh, weren't seasoned, weren't hot, and worst of all, they were kind of soggy. The sauces were very good. You get a bright green spicy sauce, that seems to be made from fresh peppers, perhaps jalapeño. Then there's a mayo based creamy orange colored sauce. Frankly because the chicken is so well seasoned, I don't think it needs sauce, but it's nice to have the option.“

“Friendly though incredibly busy“

“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!“

“Amazing customer service and food! The employees are friendly and helpful!“
