4 Best Chicken Restaurants near Knightdale

“Great food great service“

“Best fried chicken/tenders and service we’ve ever had at a fast food restaurant. Thanks to the cashier who was a lovely lady; she even gave us a sample of hushpuppies since we never had them before. I didn’t get her name but I think Smithfields needs to take pride of having that awesome staff. (October 11, 2026 around 5:00 pm). Since we entered we felt welcome and at home.

The portions are big and for a great price.

PD: the hushpuppies are very similar to Puerto Rican sorullos. You should try making a dipping sauce for them “mayoketchup” mayonnaise + ketchup and a hint of garlic (minced or paste)“

“Thank you to the amazing young guys working yesterday! I was in the drive thru and realized I only had a credit card that wasn’t activated yet.🫣 My son was several vehicles up and on a zoom meeting in the drive thru. I said, “that’s my son up there in the big blue truck he will pay for me!” Thanks for being so nice to my crazy self and allowing my son to pay for me!🤣“

“This is by far the best Popeyes that we’ve been to in Wake County. The order is always correct, food is fresh and hot, the employees are extremely helpful, friendly, and you can tell they work well as a team. They’re always smiling and joking with one another. This location is worth the extra drive.“
