Chicken Shops near Iselin, NJ

“Visited tonight for a late-night craving and had a great experience. The staff was very warm and welcoming, even at a late hour.

I ordered the Chicken Karachi Naan and Chicken Seekh Kebabs—everything was excellent. I can confidently say these are some of the best chicken seekh kebabs in the Northeast. They were served hot, juicy, and perfectly seasoned with a great blend of spices. Honestly, you could easily enjoy two or three just with raita—no naan needed.

As big foodies who’ve tried just about every spot out there, this place really stands out. The atmosphere is clean and inviting, the staff is friendly, and even the restrooms are spotless.

If there were six stars, I’d give it without hesitation.“

“The best chicken 🍗 ever, ever“

“A place filled with warmth and hospitality!

David, the manager, along with the entire front desk team on duty at 7:00 PM on Friday, December 19, 2025, surpassed all expectations through their exceptional professionalism and attentiveness. The availability of halal dining options was particularly commendable, allowing my children the freedom to dine according to their preferences. I extend my sincere appreciation to corporate leadership for their thoughtful inclusion of the Muslim community. Additionally, the hot chicken prepared by David was outstanding and greatly enjoyed.“

“Highly recommend! Food is delicious and portions are shareable depending on hunger level! Everything was nice and crispy! Ordered french fries, onion rings, and small orders of sweet and spicy wings (10), crispy chicken drumsticks (5) and hot and spicy boneless chicken (about 12 pieces or so). Will definitely be coming back!“

“Their pizza is really good - especially the Marguerita and buffalo chicken. I hope more people start going there so they will be able to remain open. Try it! You’ll like it!“

“Love it hot and spicy nice“

“DOES NOT RECOMMEND! U.S. Military Veterans, Do NOT go to Chick-Fil-A in South Plainfield on Veterans Day. They refused to give me the promotional free Original Chicken Sandwhich today, on Veterans Day, after showing my Veterans ID/Dept of Veterans Affairs ID Card. A 14-year Army Veteran, I am deeply disappointed.“

“The food was delicious and the atmosphere A+. This little spot in the heart of Linden is the place to go when you want some delicious and comforting food.“

“The Philly cheese steak is delicious. Tried some fried chicken too…also very tasty. I will be eating here again.“

“This is my placed to get breakfast, I get the roll with eggs, cheese,bacon, they make it very well, you don't need to order lunch . I tried their burgers very good and their cheese fries are the best. Need to come more often to try others. Lol“

“Amazing chicken! Verified Halal with certificates from a halal distributor!

The service unfortunately was not the best, the male server was very rude and had a poor attitude!

But amazing halal chicken wings and quality everytime“

“We use La Rosa food for our kids party ...it was just amazing ...it s help a lot to be a successful party ...thank you so much to La Rosa Berkeley heights“

“when I call this spot, I don’t even gotta explain. They hear my voice and be like “Yup, that’s him…hit him with the usual, he ’bout to tear this cheesesteak up.” The dude up front chill as hell I think his name Muhammad or something like that but I call him ocky. Best cheesesteaks in linden and I been to all of them.“

“so delicious good chicken #1“

“Cashier was polite and super friendly. Made me feel like I wanted to buy more than I wanted lol. I took my order to go but the place was very clean. Not a bad experience. Food came out fast and the food was good. I'm not use to these prices but all in all it was a good experience.“

“While it’s Americanized Chinese food, you can still taste the authentic flavors in dishes like the mapo tofu and chow fun. It’s a great spot when you’re craving comfort food with a Chinese twist. Clean dining area and fast service, too!“

“Basic takeout experience. I wish they had better vegetable options; my kids and I hate coleslaw, so we have to make a veggie side in order to have a well rounded meal.

There's no seating inside, which is fine because we were bringing it to family, but I wish they had a drive-thru window so I wouldn't have to unbuckle my kids every time I pick up food there.“

“Lutong bahay style, pagkain panlasang pinoy must try. Babalikan ninyo ang sarap 👍👍👍“

“This is a fantastic place to get delicious. Fast food. Chick-fil-A beats out the others. The value can't be beat. Get the number one meal and ask for mayo and Chick-fil-A sauce. Put a packet of mayo on your Chick-fil-A sandwich and bring the Chick-fil-A sauce home to improve whatever it is. You eat at home. The baffle fries need nothing. Get a lemonade if you can handle the sugar“

“The most genuine experience of the Choco people, their culture, and the food is absolutely phenomenal. the seafood and the portions are just like you're on the coast of Buena Ventura- They prepare the meals fresh so be patient, listen to music and have a beer- you will not regret the meal. :0“

“The place was busy however I was a walk-in and didn’t take long at all. I opted for the chicken sandwich however, didn’t ask for deluxe so without lettuce or pickles. Then I tried the grilled chicken nuggets. Not crazy about them, I should have opted for fried. Hardly any taste on the grilled nuggets. Live and learn. Next time back to regular nuggets.“

“Delicious 😋 perfect amount of food for two! Definitely will be back!“

“First time eating at this spot, literally 2 minutes walk from where I live it and I’ve always seen people in and out but never stop and try, Not a big fan of Chinese food but I wanted to try something different today and the wings and barbecue sauce was so good.“

“BBQ Chicken in Edison is dangerously crispy in the best way. The chicken was so perfectly crunchy that a little flake fell off, I stepped on it, and it legit felt like stepping on a Lego. That’s how you know the fry game is serious. Juicy inside, shatter-crisp outside — I’d 100% come back.“

“I have been going to KFCs since they started and they have been around for at least 20 years +. And I love the menus. The chicken is outstanding and I love the biskits and the chocolate chip cookies. Prices are reasonable to. I’m disabled now so I’m going to have to get someone to go and use the drive in to pick up my food. I live right down the street at the Senior Tower West building at Plainfield Avenue and W. 7th Street. We are right here at the corner. It’s so easy to get there. It’s the best spot for that KFC cause it’s right on the corner and it’s right in a busy section in that area.“

“Heard about this chicken spot through a family member and came here and ordered the 2 piece with the empanadas as they sell tons of stuff here a regular chicken shop don’t, loved my service and the food was great, definitely one of the best ones in Perth Amboy! Would recommend this place out of the rest.“

“Always good at Chick-fil-A“

“This place is awesome ! It is served very fast and the food is very good , and is priced very fair .
I bought the chicken fingers combo box with extra Texas toast .
Fantastic!
Suggested and recommended to family and friends .“

“I have been going here since it has opened,and the food is good prepared as you like it. The personnel are beautiful people with whom I have seen feed those who may not have the money to eat on several occasions which every community business person should have a heart to do. It is a community-based business which I would not change for anything or anyone!!!“

“This is one of the best chicken PLACES I ever been to and I've been in many, great chicken, very clean, employee's are awesome, and they handle your FOOD in a very sanitized way, one other thing they do it right in front of you, and there pizza is also good all around it's a great place to get your FOOD, I guarantee it, 110%,plus tax“

“Last time I had KFC in the states was 6 years ago, however it was over fried and literally trash. The chicken at the Plainfield KFC was perfect, the restaurant is remodeled and clean. I hope they keep up with the high quality; not like other KFC’s nowadays.“

“This chick-fil-a is amazing. They always go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect and in order. The event they just had for daddy’s and daughters was unreal and adorable. The staff is amazing. Thank you so much for making this our regular place for our family and making it home.“

“I experienced for the first time at Woodbridge center mall the scenic drive through experience of take out reminiscing the fun times we had at the opened mall prior to COVID pat brennan manager at chick filet store ran a cool smooth operation while the line at st George was longer than the people on line at shop rite or the marijuana shop great job guys“

“I love ordering here because the food is very tasty!! It is best to go before noon. Our order was fresh and made to perfection! All of the workers are very friendly and welcoming. You can always find out the prices of the items before you order. I always order multiple lunch platters for my family and it is very filling. I will absolutely order here again!!“

“The food was very disappointing and very slow. My food was so cold and disappointing. I never experience this at this location. I did tell the manager and he didn't say sorry or offer anything. Very disappointed. I guess I need to find another location.“

“I don’t normally take the time to write reviews unless of course the restaurant absolutely deserves it. This is four times now that I’ve had to deal with this establishment and this particular manager, Jose. Every single time I call In and have a request or a question. He’s always there to answer it. He’s always accommodating and does his absolute best to make sure he’s taken care of his customers. Never once have I had to deal with Jose where he had an attitude or wasn’t pleasant. Every single time I’ve dealt with him he is thorough and ensures the order is complete and correct. This is what constantly keeps me coming back to this particular location. I’ve also seen him interact with other customers and he’s always pleasant and kind. I’ve also expressed this with other family members who say other locations aren’t as great and they agree that this particular location is the way it is because of this particular manager. I truly believe that to be true as it starts at the top. Bravo KFC for hiring such a gem.“

“Chicken strips were excellent anything extra crispy and The size were just great“

“Good food and very nice staff. Wish they served hot coffee. Would be cheaper than Starbucks and my husband and I like coffee with our lunch.“

“I remember when it first opened, this was had crazy long lines for even a year afterward. Crazy enough for police presence there to monitor the crowds.

On one of my filipino husband's birthdays, I decided to surprise him with the food of his people. I ordered ahead of time via door dash to order ahead of time with a 530pm pick up time... but the food was prepared an hour early (kinda annoyed that it could have been warmer), so it was more than ready when I arrived.

Their sweet spaghetti is what you'd expect for fast food as well as their loco moco style burger patties... but their chicken (joy) is actually pretty good, even for next day leftovers after a quick toasting. So yes, don't hesitate to go big for the giant family pack. cluck cluck nom nom.

Also don't forget their peach mango pies! Even crispier after a quick air fryer reheat. Husband was happy =)“
