15 Best Chicken Restaurants in Dayton

“This review is so late...sorry about that! We alerted the Magoo crew that we would be coming in for a birthday gathering on July 18th. Reservations are not accepted but they let us know that 11 am on a Sunday was a good time to come in. What a terrific time we had! Payton, Riann and Elle provided us with TERRIFIC hospitality and the kitchen sent out INCREDIBLE food! I just cant say enough good things. Thank You!“

“Each year around Thanksgiving, we celebrate our employees with a company-sponsored breakfast. Despite economic challenges and tariffs negatively impacting our bottom line, we wanted to continue this tradition. This year, we provided a continental-style breakfast featuring Chick-fil-A chicken biscuit sandwiches, fresh fruit, and several additional items from a local warehouse store. Chick-fil-A delivered our food promptly, complete with all necessary utensils and serving supplies. A special thank-you to William, our delivery driver, who was exceptionally patient and kind. When I asked about signing the receipt and adding a tip, he explained that Chick-fil-A doesn’t process tips—but his excellent service deserves recognition. We want to express our appreciation to the Washington Township Chick-fil-A, operated by Marla Davis, as well as her Centerville (Cornerstone area) location. As a local Centerville resident, I find both restaurants are consistently efficient, and their employees are always friendly and professional. We highly recommend Marla Davis’s Chick-fil-A locations for any catering needs or any Chic-fil-A craving.“

“Stopped by yesterday for dinner and it was so amazing! Food was so flavorful and hands down had the best seasoned vegetables I’ve ever had. Great service as well!“

“I love everything about Chick-fil-A.“

“Great service Good food“

“The line was long the outside speaker didn't work very well I got soaked trying to place my Order but the food was very good and delicious. I enjoyed my meal yesterday.“

“The food here is amazing, wings, chicken phillys burgers you name it and the staff is always so friendly and welcoming with their warm smiles!“

“Phenomenal service and even better wings. Can’t wait to go back and try their other sauces and items on the menu. I give this place a 6 out of 5 stars“

“I use to go to the Troy St location since I’m only a couple blocks away from that location , However the last several times I’ve went to that location they messed up my order. I’m not one to call & complain so I let it slide but after the last time messing up all 3 orders I said no more & started going to the Linden Ave location & so far my order hasn’t been messed up one time. When they forget the biscuits , get the chicken type wrong all the time that’s it for me . I can’t keep going back each week to get the order I wanted so we end up eating what we were given & on a couple occasions my husband didn’t get to eat because he can’t eat spicy foods & all the orders were spicy & shouldn’t have been. Single sides were put inside with meals instead of being on the side individually like I ordered them . I get the same 3 meals EVERY Wednesday . I may switch sides on 1 of them but thats it . When they forget the biscuits , get the chicken type wrong all the time that’s it for me . Since going to Linden Ave & having an automated thing take your order I haven’t had any problems what so ever & I was skeptical about ordering through that .“

“Yesterday the thighs were small so they did give me a extra thigh. Small portion of mac cheese,“

“Decided on Lee's in Trotwood Ohio for dinner last night, and it was the best meal I've had from there this year. David, the manager? prepared my order just as I requested in the app. The chicken-both tenders and wings-were hot and very fresh. The biscuits were soft and fluffy, and the baked beans were in an actual lidded container. The potato salad and skins were also fresh and delicious. David brought my meal up to the registered packed everything carefully including the apple pie and dipping sauces.

Although the requested butter and honey for the biscuits was left out, I still have to rate them a 5. I couldn't be more.plased with the meal and the service received.“

“I want to give a special shout-out to Manager Sammy at Popeyes on Salem Avenue in Dayton. Every time I come in, Sammy is professional, respectful, and always makes sure customers are taken care of. You can tell he takes pride in his work and works hard to keep things running smoothly. Even when they’re busy, he stays positive and makes sure orders are correct and customers leave satisfied. The food is always fresh, the staff is friendly, and the service is excellent. Managers like Sammy are hard to find, and he is a big reason I keep coming back. Thank you for your outstanding customer service and leadership!“

“Ordered this for the first time via doordash. Excellent chicken and sides! Everything was perfectly cooked and fresh! I don't care how food is seasoned. If it's under or overcooked its terrible. This place cooked the chicken, wedges, biscuits, and mac and chee to perfection!“

“Not all Popeyes locations are equal. I’ve had Popeyes in dozens of locations in the south. This is one of the best from a customer service and quality perspective. The quality of the food is top tier. Served hot and fresh. The staff is first class. This specific location is amazing. If you’ve been disappointed with other Popeyes locations, this one has been a pleasant surprise. Hope they keep it up.“
