Chicken Restaurants near Wayne

“From the start from when we first walked in, the place smelled heavenly of fried chicken. The restaurant was clean and had no odor except the delicious smell of fried chicken. We were there at 5:30. The service was friendly and my husband and I were even told about the plastic glove that the napkins and fork were wrapped in when the guy behind the counter handed us our food. That glove came in handy when we ate our wings. We ordered sweet & spicy and BBQ. The coating was crispy and delish. Just how I like my wings. Not over sauced and hot! Definitely going back!!“

“So good!!!!!!!!! Must try! My favorite place in town!“

“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 😋“

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

“Surprisingly Fabulous service , the establishment left a bright and impactful impression on my mood. Had a wonderful chat and wait with the charming and cheerful blue haired employee Janalis, she was the highlight. The food service and timing was great and the lemonade is some of the best i’ve ever had“

“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.“

“‎I had a wonderful dining experience here and it exceeded my expectations in many ways. The atmosphere was warm and inviting, striking the right balance between casual comfort and stylish charm. The staff was attentive without being intrusive, always checking in at the perfect time. The menu had a thoughtful variety and every dish felt fresh and carefully crafted. I tried a mix of appetizers and mains and each one was presented beautifully with flavors that complemented each other perfectly. What stood out most was the freshness of the ingredients nothing felt heavy or overdone. The drinks menu was equally impressive, with both creative mocktails and classic options prepared with care. Portion sizes were satisfying, leaving just enough room to enjoy dessert without feeling overwhelmed. The dessert itself was a highlight, rich yet balanced in flavor. Prices felt fair for the quality and experience provided, making it a place worth visiting again. Overall, it’s a spot that works for both casual outings and special celebrations.“

“Chicken is crunchy and delicious! Everything I've tried so far has been good. Glad I finally tried Chicken Galore last month, but, now I'm a little addicted 😉“

“9/27/25

Hubby was looking for something to eat and found Dominican Pica Pollo. Fried chicken with Dominican seasoning, it's so good.

I got the sandwich and hubby got chicken pieces. Have to say I prefer the chicken pieces. The chicken in the sandwich was a little overcooked so it was very dry, even though it is wonderfully seasoned.

Will go back for the chicken pieces yum.“

“So so so good! Amazing quality and delicious flavors! I love that you can order in DeliverZero containers instead of single-use! Everything was so good but I’m most amazed with the tenders! The chicken was juicy and delicious and didn’t seem to be super fried and didn’t have a ton of breading, allowing the chicken to really shine 😍“

“Food was really good, and our server, Jimmy P, was amazing and very friendly. Everything was beyond our expectations! Keep in mind though that the spicy options are really, REALLY spicy! Didn’t ruin the quality of the food whatsoever though!“

“I haven't had a bad experience per day but they did get slammed while I was there and ended up passing my order to someone else because they forgot I was there overall good hot food no complaints there and the ice cream isn't bad. Side note I enjoy the friendly chats the two men seem to have with patrons(I'm not from here but have been a few times always everyone smiling or laughing)“

“First timer since i just moved to Palisades park couple month ago. I got to know the chef and owner by name, the first day i came in. Very nice people, atmosphere and mostly, Food! chicken is seasoned just right, def has southern kick. Love it. Highly recommended.“

“They’re the best of the best. I drive all the way from Wayne, New Jersey just to get my dishes from here! This is the best chicken spot i’ve ever been too, the staff are incredible and the management is above and beyond. You can definitely see they take care of the establishment and the care for the food is the best. Well trusted.“

“This place has been around for decades, and their fried chicken is by far the best I’ve had throughout Passaic county. It has a nice spice to it that separates it from others. Their beef patties are also delicious… and you cannot forget to order a burger!

The only concern is the location. They’re located in a dangerous part of Paterson; fortunately, nothing has happened whenever I visited, but always be on alert.“

“AWESOME food! I love the atmosphere. And I really love the fact that they serve the best falafel in the city.“

“I have bought meals from this store many times ever since they opened in GSP food court. This is one of the most popular restaurants in the mall, sometimes the line wrapping around the stairs. It’s take out only, but of course guests can use the mall’s dining hall for dine-in. The store does a good job of putting associates outside who take customers orders while they are waiting in the line. It speeds up the process and keeps the line short.

The store takes relatively short tike to prepare the orders. I always got my orders within 10 minutes. They always pack the items correctly. Never had any missing from the bag. They are also generous with the sauces. I got more whenever I asked. I love the chicken deluxe sandwich, chicken nuggets, waffle fries, milkshake of Chic Fil A. This store does an excellent job of maintaining the quality, taste and standard, at all times.

The associates are very friendly here. They always greet and smile. They happily fulfill any reasonable requests like extra sauces, napkins or utensils. The rewards account is also valuable as I get points for purchases from this store. I have redeemed points at this also for free sandwiches and desserts. I hope they continue to do well and keep making the guests happy at GSP.“

“Best roasterie chicken in the state I love their food it’s the best I highly recommend the half of chicken with onions and Spanish rice 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿“

“The chicken is perfectly seasoned, insanely crispy on the outside, and unbelievably juicy on the inside, the kind of crunch you hear before you even taste it. Every bite feels fresh, hot, and made with care, not like it’s been sitting under a heat lamp. You can tell they respect their food here.

The flavor is what really separates Jersey Fresh from the rest. It’s not greasy, not bland, and not overpowered, just pure, crave-worthy fried chicken done right. Pair it with their sides and you’ve got a meal that’ll have you planning your next visit before you even finish the first.

Service is fast, friendly, and efficient, and the portions are generous. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or feeding a group, this spot delivers every single time.

Bottom line: Jersey Fresh Fried Chicken is a Paterson gem. If you haven’t been yet, you’re missing out, and if you have, you already know why this place deserves the hype.“

“I love this place. I don't mind having to wait as long as my food is nice and hot! The women who work the counter are extremely friendly and helpful, and they always give top notch service. My grandmother were very satisfied with our order! Been coming here several years, and this is the best experience I've ever had! Keep up the great work!!“

“I needed 100 pieces of chicken for a repast this past weekend. I ordered the food the night before and at 12pm, as requested everything was done to perfection! Everyone loved the chicken and I even took a poll. I asked many people whose chicken is better. Chicken Supreme or Krispy Krunchy? EVERYONE said Krispy Krunchy is MUCH BETTER than Chicken Supreme. Well done gentlemen! Thank you for the amazing food!!!“

“I loved the food, very delicious, the grilled chicken and the jelly, recently, rich and poor in other restaurants, I like this one better, I'm going to continue eating here ... I love the food very yumi better than other restaurants I went to and the service was fast and great food I'm gonna keep eating here ?“

“Dorothy is the best…. Great tasting chicken… get the shrimp dumplings…“

“chicken is delicious string beans potatoes fresh“

“Popeyes never disappoints! Of course, the chicken is crispy, juicy, and full of flavor exactly what you’d expect. But what really surprised me this time was the ranch. Their buttermilk ranch isn’t just any ranch; you can actually taste the creamy, tangy authenticity in every bite. It pairs perfectly with the chicken and sides, balancing out the spices with a smooth richness. You can tell it’s made right, not just a generic dip. Honestly, the ranch alone is worth coming back for… it takes the whole meal up a notch. Popeyes nailed it!“
