30 Best Chicken Restaurants in Cincinnati

“It was great to sit outside on a sunny day. We had the hush puppies which were to die for due to the jalapenos and sauce. I enjoyed a tasty summer salad with pecans and my friend had a tasty grilled cheese with granny smith apples. The prices were reasonable and the service was friendly and efficient.“

“Hands down, my favorite restaurant! I love the large menu and their ranch dressing is the best (made in house and I almost always get a side of it for fries). Lots of beers on tap and a large bar for cocktails. We have had graduation parties, birthday celebrations and many enjoyable conversations here. What I look forward to every year is their support each October for Breast Cancer Awareness and Fundraising. As a survivor, I am grateful for this effort. They do it for other fundraising needs as well. Silver Spring House is a little bit vacation and a lot of bit family!“

“The chicken tenders are very good with the dipping sauce they provide. Service is excellent they seem to have a younger staff but they seem to be well-trained and very very polite management must be doing a good job with training

Kid-friendliness: Very clean restaurant“

“A few regular employees who have taken our order over the years go above and beyond to make sure my son's (who has food allergies) food is prepped as requested. The few times there have even been the slightest question of safety or miscommunication in the kitchen, they have remade his food with no problem. The employees are always so kind, friendly and understanding, and this is so appreciated!“

“Excellent service. The employees were very kind. The cook handed me a gizzard when I asked if they are salty. When I asked for a sweet tea, the other employee asked me how much ice I want in the cup. I bought the 3 strip combo meal with an extra strip, The bonsai sauce, and coleslaw. Bonsai sauce is like no sauce I've ever had. It was good, borderline too swt, but I used it all. The coleslaw was awesome. The sweet tea was pretty good. Thankyou!“

“Just wish there was one closer to me!! Love their chicken salad & the cookies!!“

“Husband and I were in this neck of the woods for lunchtime and did a quick google search for what’s near. The catchy name got our attention so we decided to check them out. Quick service, delicious food, and decent prices. Definitely recommend.“

“The sandwiches are delicious and I especially love the salad with tenders!!“

“Great food good vibes ultra chicken speedy service fun restaurant tasty snacks friendly staff juicy fun! This was epic and fun for all ages races religions nationalities sexualities genders sexes creeds opinions affiliations abilities sizes intelligences and economic classes! And THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKIN’ BOUT SON!“

“Omg the new menu!!! I had kimchi fried rice and fried pickles. I want more. Mapi is the best.“

“Same menu, great new location because there's plenty of seating plus it's near some of the best places to go downtown.

The CityBird Sandwich is my favorite (love the slaw on top of the tenders). The staff was friendly and my food came out fast.“

“My children and I love going to this Chick-fil-A. They are beyond accommodating; especially with my Son's food allergies. They will give grilled chicken nuggets to my Son who has food allergies so that he too can enjoy and I don't have to make multiple food stops. This is beyond appreciated. Highly recommend to all!!“

“The restaurant offers a welcoming atmosphere, enhanced by the thoughtful touch of fresh flowers on each table. The food was excellent, and I appreciated the option to have my fries prepared extra crispy. When I made this request, Grayden, who took my order, was exceptionally polite and accommodating, unlike the often indifferent service found at many fast food establishments. His positive attitude and kindness truly stood out. My family and I always enjoy our visits to Chick-fil-A.“

“very clean and always fresh“

“I ordered a double burger and fries and it was amazing! Like that good, greasy, scrumptious kind of amazing! I haven’t been back for months. I was working nearby and decided to grab a burger again- double with fries and took it back to work. The fries were not good. Kinda stale. Tasted like they were reheated and the burger bun was hard as a rock. Felt more like a hockey puck than a bun. My first experience was good, my second, not so good. It’s hit or miss for me.“

“I found a delicious place for fish. It's carry-out only and so worth it. The pricing was reasonable and the quality and quantity of food is great. Ordered the tilapia. It was deliciously seasoned and cooked. I have enough for another meal. It was still steamy by the time I returned home. Employees were friendly, including the other waiting customer. Pleasant experience! Thanks for making lunch!“

“I had their fried chicken today for the first time at a picnic. It was absolutely wonderful. It wasn’t greasy or soggy It was crunchy and delicious!“

“Big box special. 2 pieces of chicken. I anticipated a pathetic mostly fried skin scrawny wing and drumstick ala KFC. I owe Popeyes an apology! 2 pieces. I asked for 2 breasts expecting a refusal or an upcharge. What I got were 2 big meaty pieces of chicken with no additional cost. Rounded it out with 2 regular sides and a biscuit. So good, so filling. Laissez les bons temps rouler! :)“

“We had lunch delivered to the office...the Classic Chicken Sandwich was the best I've ever had! Plump juicy crispy chicken breast with thick cut bacon topped with easy over egg on grilled bun. Nothing but too big describes this sandwich.“

“Still working to reach manger. Order was missing extra chicken on the salad ordered. No salad dressing for salad. So hard to eat salad w no dressing. Phone number on receipt isn't valid. Goggle has different number and that rings and hangs up.
Called customer service 2x states message will be sent to store and will hear from someone. No time-frame for follow up.“

“The wait time is very quick you don't have to wait that long for your food is cooked to order so everything is hot which is good the only thing I didn't like is that they forgot the utensils

Parking: the parking is pretty tight but there is a car wash not even like one feet over from Lee's Chicken you can park over there and just walk over“
