50 Best Chicken Restaurants near Palisades Park

“This is our usual fried chicken spot and it stays consistent every single time. We normally do takeout, but today we dined in and the experience was actually really pleasant — calm, clean, and easy.

The food was amazing. The chicken was perfectly crunchy (the kind that actually stays crunchy), and the flavors were on point. The sweet and spicy sauce was delish — just the right balance — and the soy garlic was packed with flavor without being overpowering. The radish was fresh and refreshing, and the shrimp tempura was also really good — light, crispy, and not greasy.

Whether you’re grabbing takeout or sitting down, this place knows what it’s doing. Reliable, flavorful, and always satisfying. We’ll definitely keep coming back.“

“I frequently order from The BBQ location in Palisades Park after my morning gym session. There are many choices for good Korean style fried chicken but i find BBQ’s to have the perfect blend of crispy/flaky on the outside and tender and juicy on the inside. My personal favorite chicken place-ordering online 20 min before my gym session ends ensures a ready to go pick up with no wait time. Easy and convenient.“

“Dave’s Hot Chicken is a great place if you love spicy food. The Reaper hot burger is insanely hot but full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The chicken is juicy, crispy, and fresh every time. Portions are good and the taste really stands out. Not for the faint-hearted, but a must-try for anyone who enjoys serious heat and bold flavours.“

“Loved their wings and appys“

“Chicken and french toast brunch is amazing“

“Amazing elevated chicken. It's not just chicken, however. Oysters were superb. Salads (the scallion salad is an absolute delight) and all the sides are just superior. Little touches that seem whimsical but are just spot on - try the 24 carat nugget with caviar. Excellent star-studded champagne list; why not? Staff were just exceptional. Special shout out to the sommelier who came by and spent time even though we didn't buy a killer bottle of bubbly. We will return.“

“In todays economy, 15 bucks for half of a delicious roasted chicken, a side and a drink kind of feels like a steal. Fast and good service and very much appreciate the gloves they give you. The chicken is literally fall of the bone good. Highly recommend!“

“you think your grandma is in the kitchen. you really won't believe hiw good all the food is.“

“Great food!! Went there for the first time!“

“We’ve been obsessed with this place for the past couple months, the food is amazing I highly recommend it! The salito fries, cheesesteak and the mixed platters are my forever go to! If you’re ever close to this place please check it out!! ❤️“

“I’m visiting NJ (lived here for a long time) and wanted to eat some of my favorite foods. I ordered dinner from port of peri peri and it was perfectly cooked but missing my fries. I let that be known to the restaurant and received a small refund. Next night, I ordered dinner again and I received a large order of fries on the house as well as a discount card for 5% for dine in orders valid for one more week. Amazing customer service. If I were in NJ longer, I would surely order again! The food is absolutely delicious 😋“

“I went to Dave’s hot chicken I ordered my food didn’t look at it until I got home and got someone else order but I wouldn’t go back because it was a 30 minute drive was upset bout not getting what I paid for.“

“Mmmm 🤪Good..............🤨“

“Delicious food and friendly service. Top notch!“

“Really enjoyed the food from Bloom Chicken.

The small boneless chicken was honestly huge and the chicken was super crispy. The spicy rice cakes were way better than I expected — especially since I don’t usually like rice cakes.

The only thing keeping this from a 5-star review is that it came with no radish, no dipping sauce, nothing on the side.

For $14 for a small order, I’d expect at least some radish, I’d also give up a few pieces of chicken for radish.

Also, it’s definitely more of a take-out spot — the covered patio is nice but not heated, therefore I ate my food in the car since it was cold.

Overall though, really solid food and an easy 4-star meal.“

“Love this place! The owner is super cool and the food is delicious! 10/10 taste and customer service every single time!“

“YoYo Chicken is 🔥! The chicken is super tasty, the smash burger is insane, and the portions are big and satisfying. Definitely hitting different.“

“The spicy chicken biscuit omg toooooo die for so my husband and I saw many people entering this spot plus it was our first time. We heard mac and cheese, greens, and fried chicken. So we got a bucket of mixed chicken, two sides of Mac and cheese, and some collard greens (they make them with black eyed peas and tomatoes; totally different from any kind of greens I ever had and I definitely was left craving more. Nice little spot and such friendly people. Heading back very soon“

“My husband and I went to Forefeathers tonight for dinner, it was excellent. The chicken tenders were delicious, the pink dipping sauce was very good. The chicken sandwich that my husband had to amazing! Coleslaw was delicious, plenty of sauce and pickles. Fries were excellent….definitely will go back.“

“Chick's deluxe sandwich is the GOAT chicken burger in NYC!
Great place to grab one, fast and welcoming staff. Guy Josh was specifically helpful! The man take the work responsibly and needs a raise 👏
Definitely, my first go to place for Chick-fil-A in a city“

“I had one of biggest experiences in this Chik-fil-A. I lost my wallet and send message on instagram. The employee was so nice, found it. I live in Brazil, im in Flórida and i Will return tomorrow. They send me my wallet by UPS and offered to pay the value of transportation. Thank you for the person who found and for employees from Chick-fil-A! 10000 stars“

“Love it hot and spicy nice“

“Very friendly staff and excellent food“

“Delicious! Dine in was awesome!“

“Dave’s Hot Chicken is always on point. crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The sliders are the best thing on the menu, hands down.

Shoutout to Pat for the great service. friendly, fast, and made the whole experience better.“

“Got this as takeout and was impressed. The chicken and corn were the stars of the show. One piece of feedback for the restaurant is that the salsa verde is labeled incorrectly on the menu. After trying the time I realized it’s not salsa verde, it’s Chimichurri.“

“Tada — Chinatown, NYC

Tada is an easygoing spot in Chinatown that does casual Korean comfort food with a clean, modern touch. The room is simple and relaxed, making it a comfortable choice for an unfussy meal that still feels thoughtfully put together.

The food is straightforward and well executed. The HSBC Army Stew stands out as the most satisfying dish—rich, spicy, and comforting, with enough depth and portion to truly anchor the meal. It’s the kind of dish you come back craving.

The fried chicken, which Tada is best known for, delivers as expected. Crisp, well-seasoned, and juicy, it’s done with confidence and is an easy crowd-pleaser.

Portions across the menu lean modest, and at this price point, a few more side dishes or something like a steamed egg or soft tofu would make the meal feel more complete. Still, for casual dining, Tada gets the fundamentals right: good flavors, reliable execution, and a laid-back atmosphere that works well for a low-key Chinatown stop.“

“Went to the opening of Sheffield store was nice and clean food was excellent staff were friendly especially Matty ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“There’s a reason Jollibee is known for having the best fried chicken in America — it’s perfectly crispy, juicy, and full of flavor every time. I even tried their new spicy chicken sandwich, and it was excellent as well. The food is always fresh, the service is friendly, and the experience is consistently great. Absolutely worth the stop.“

“Excelente servicio muy cómodo lo maximoo“

“Been going there for the past 30 years“

“😃Great food, The chicken is delish“

“My favorite chicken in New York City great spin on Indian Street food and the spice level can go off the chart on that big rowdy sandwich! What are you waiting for get your butt down here and have some of those delicious chicken!“

“The guy working the counter seemed sooooo detached, uninterested. Not rude, just really detached. The chicken was delicious though, not dry, crispy, juicy, flavorful and the slaw, pickle and sauce completed it. I would like to go back if I lived closer.“

“Counter service spot serving up fried chicken. They have wings, tenders or chicken sandwiches with a good selection of dry rubs and sauces to choose from. The food was delicious and the staff were attentive and helpful. Best part was it didn't break the bank. I highly recommend this spot for lunch or a simple dinner.“

“I was in the Penn Station area today and had a craving for fried chicken. Initially, I was thinking about going to a certain Filipino fried chicken chain, but after checking the ratings, Pollo Camino came out on top. They’ve recently opened a new branch near Penn Station, but I ended up visiting their 8th Ave location instead — a small, single-storefront shop with a simple interior.

I ordered the fried chicken set for $9.99, which came with two pieces of chicken, a piece of bread, one side, and a drink for an extra $1.
• Drink: I went with their Horchata, made with peanuts and vanilla ,milk, without the cinnamon and rice I’m used to. It had a nice aroma, refreshing, and a bit different — in a good way.
• Side: I chose yuca fries, served in large sticks. The inside was dense than potato, with a lightly crisp exterior. Personally, I wasn’t a fan — I’d say skip this and go for another side.
• Fried Chicken: Lightly battered with a noticeable blend of spices and herbs. The meat was tender, while the skin wasn’t the super-crispy kind you’d get from those well-known Louisiana or Kentucky-style chains. Flavor was solid, but here’s an important tip — just like with many fried chicken places, don’t let it sit too long. Once it cools, the saltiness becomes much more pronounced.

Service gets a full 5 stars in the fast-food category — no self-service pick-up here, they bring your food right to the table.

Overall, Pollo Camino is worth trying if you’re around Penn Station. The price is fair, the chicken is flavorful, but choose your side wisely and eat it while it’s hot. Next time I’ll try a competitor for comparison, but for now, my top spot still belongs to Louisiana chain.“

“Solid fried chicken sandwich in a classic dive bar. I haven’t actually been in many dive bars, but when you walk into this place, it’s almost pitch black and you can’t see anything. The atmosphere is a little bit grungy, and you have to read some signs to figure out that you need to order out the counter. When we went on a Saturday for lunch, there was no one behind the counter and it turns out the worker was someone who I actually thought was dining at the restaurants since they were eating their hashbrowns next to everyone else. The chicken sandwich is enormous and takes up much more than the surface area of a single bun, but I liked it a lot, especially when you add the different sauces and mayo they provide. Would come back and try some other stuff too. Very cute back patio.“

“Found this recommended as a hidden gem, and I'm glad we added it to our itinerary! We went during happy hour and we were very pleased with the quality and the quantity of food for the price. We got the half and half wings and they were delicious! They were a hearty size compared to most places that serve wings anymore. I plan to return the next time I'm in the city!“

“Alex you were missed . So im visiting from Virginia and the same person who took my order 2 years ago was still here lol. He took it upon himself to help the deaf customers that was in front of me and bring their order to them because he knew they wouldnt hear. He’s so sweet“

“The roasted chicken bowl was tasty, the rice had a good flavor too. The chili lime fries had a wonderful flavor and were nice and crunchy.“

“Chicken was delicious and facility clean“

“perks and discounts....presents a fun atmosphere and a bucket of crispy onion fries etc such as calamari at the beach ...“

“I love coming to this food hall and Bob White greets you as the first choice of food. Although they are mostly fast food and fried, I see why they are still in business. The hand cut fries 🍟 are my go to item, and their tenders are well paired to taste. Not overly seasoned however packing flavor, mistress, because its bribed, and this is real chicken, not processed. So the tenders are also on the menu made into a sandwich or a wrap. I haven't explored that yet, but may try when I am not counting calories. The kale salad with added almonds and quinoa as a side is befitting as a healthier dish with my fries and tenders. I will be returning again because they have so many other sauces to try. They were fast with service although 1 person ordered ahead of me, and 2 were called before I received mine, I was pleased. Oh and even more pleased to know as an MTA worker I received a discount and by taking the receipt I noticed I can get a free Sweet Tea just for making this review. I will update and let everyone know how that goes and after I get a fork for my salad. Later for now!

Update! I got my free sweet tea!! Its refreshing, not to sweet which is great for me, its sweet enough . We don't need liquid diabetes people!!! if you do, then McDonald's has some for you.“

“Stumbled upon Bird and Box by accident and was so thrilled to see it was Seed Oil free! This chicken was probably some of the best we have ever had. So fresh and crisp and the service was amazing from the guy that made the chicken to the woman that prepared the boxes it was a great experience. Will definitely be back!“

“Went in and immediately was greeted by the staff with a warm welcome. Talked to a man named prestige who help me gauge spice levels and what I should get based of my presences. got the Nashville hot and the Korean bbq with fries . needless to say this food was incredible , and the service was the same if not better. If you're around don't hesitate to stop by!!!“

“Chicken is good! Seasoned & flavorful! Fries good too! Mac & Cheese needs to go back to the basics.“

“The classic chicken sandwich is the best 🤤😋👍“

“The owner is so kind and the food is amazing. The chicken so juicy and delicious and the fries too. Definitely recommend’“

“I’ve been going here since 2019 and have never once had a bad experience or felt disappointed with the food. The owners are very humble and down to earth people and treat you like family. The chicken fries are probably my #1 favorite thing on the menu. The quality of the chicken and sandwiches are top tier. If you’ve ever had a bad experience here or didn’t think the food was up to your standards, please talk to the owners. I know they’ll make it right.“
