13 Best Chicken Restaurants in Cleveland

“So I told y'all I went to thecrispychick_cle and I ordered the Mega Meal since it was our first time there that way me and babe can eat so I get the food and we pull off and start on our way then babe look in the food and sees that there are only four tenders well in the Mega Meal is supposed to be six tenders a french fry two sauces garlic bread and a drink so I busted you turn and went back and explain to the cashier that I ordered a mega and there were only four Tenders in there well she says I'm sorry about that let me let them know and so she says okay they're going to bring you to tenders up I said okay thank you when she comes up to the window she hands me a box and says im so sorry well I opened the box and here is five more Tenders in the Box... no arguments or nothing... no let me see your receipt it was just very pleasant they made a mistake and they corrected it right off of the drib and plus the food was good even for me with no teeth the Fry's (crinkle) has season on it so I didn't need ketchup salt and pepper the chicken was nice and hot out the grease but not greasy the honey mustard sauce was like no other honey mustard sauce that I have tasted the only regret that I have with this $12 purchase is not getting the lemonade Because by the way that chicken taste I know for sure that that lemonade was good as hell but here are the pictures and I did a video but I'm going to put the video on Tik Tok with a little editing and stuff and tag them in it so if you're ever by 55th and Woodland drop by they are really good and they are #blackowned“

“I'm giving them a 5☆ only because the prices fit my budget as far as the fresh meats. The kitchen has changed since I first started eating there. The last couple of times I ordered perch and I got orange roughy which was a little dry a better fish but I had my taste for ocean perch everyone that works there is very friendly always greet you with a smile.“

“Went there yesterday to get tobacco and tubes somehow every time I go go there lately the price of my hot rod tubes go from 2.19/2.49/4.31 yesterday, I’m on a fixed income !! The tobacco hasn’t changed but if the owner/manager isn’t there they charge me what ever they want“

“🔥 Golden Crispy Perfection & Top-Tier Service from Eddie! 🔥

If you’re in Garfield Heights and haven’t stopped by the Sunoco on Turney for their Crispy Country Chicken, you’re seriously missing out! That golden, crunchy outside and juicy flavor inside is next level. It’s the kind of chicken that makes you pull over for a second helping.

What really makes this spot stand out, though, is Eddie. He’s more than just a worker—he’s a real part of the community. Always welcoming, always respectful, and he makes you feel like family every time you walk in. His energy, his service, and the way he looks out for everyone just hit different.

Whether you’re grabbing gas or just chasing that crispy chicken craving, this place deserves your stop—and your respect.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Excellent service. The chicken was phenomenal. We came at 1:30am when it was 0 degrees out and Hakeem took the time to plug in a space heater for us (we didn’t ask him to do this). It’s hard to find good customer service these days but Hakeem exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!“

“Without a doubt one of the best fried chicken (and sides!) I’ve had anywhere in the country. The skin is always flakey and crisp, with the chicken inside hot, moist, and steamy. Do not miss this experience under any circumstance!“

“I don't think anything needs to be said the Stars speak for themselves perfect score

EDIT: admittedly I am very biased about my chicken and some of the other chicken spots within Cleveland aren't exactly in my top 10 the crispy chicken spot in the rapid stop gas station on East 55th and Payne the only other chicken serving restaurant that I'll ever go to besides them is red Walters over near East 85th Street those are the only two chicken restaurants or spots in general in Cleveland that me and my family will go to otherwise we don't go anywhere else we don't touch nobody else chicken if it ain't made within the house or in them two businesses“

“If you’re in the mood for any kind of fried chicken or chicken sandwiches and you care about taste and cleanliness and not in the mood to wait in a long drive thru…. This is the spot I loved everything I ordered and will definitely be visiting more often.“
