16 Best Chicken Restaurants in Pittsburgh

“Stopped in last night before and event at the convention center. cool atmosphere, nice selection of food and drinks. Very nice staff. Highly recommend.“

“I ordered the 12 piece wings with mama Gayle’s dry rub seasoning and it was better than expected,better than wing stop or Buffalo Wild Wings. The first bite I took, my mouth watered immediately,so far a 10/10. Can’t forget about licking the seasoning off your fingers.“

“Really spicy but delish sandwich“

“We visited on April 16, 2025 as part of a high school band trip of 60 students, staff, & chaperones coming home from Washington, D.C. We made a huge crowd inside the restaurant. Some of us ordered on the app. We were all served within approx 15min. It was very efficient & good food quality. The restaurant & bathrooms were clean & staff were friendly.“

“I am leaving Pittsburgh so I feel like I am obligated to leave review for this restaurant, which saved myself during my time in Pittsburgh. As Korean, I still believe this restaurant would be very popular if it were in Korea. Their chicken is sooo crispy even with sauces. The portion is amazing too. I never had any issue with the food. My one advice is get a rice bowl if you can and have it together with soy garlic/sweet spicy chicken.“

“Perfect chicken sandwich!“

“The standard Chick-fil-A experience. Polite staff, fast service, and consistent food. One of the only places to grab some gluten free options when out and about. A little higher priced than other places but you know what you are getting. Salads offer a healthier option -just go light on the dressing.“

“While I like the food, this place is usually not clean. No staff is dedicated for cleaning. Costermers need to wipe down tables and chairs. When I visited Chick-fil-A in homestead, an elderly woman keeped the place clean. This place needs to hire somebody to keep this place clean.“

“Great chicken and fries, and lots of options, all from a small business. I recommend the popcorn chicken deal for the best bang for your buck, a large meal is had for $10 after tax and tip (do I even need one? Well I'm doing it for small businesses anyway).“

“I went to Chick-fil-A yesterday to pick up a catering order for work. Let me just tell you, I had the best experience. Our business credit card wasn't really working to pay for the catering order, so I was causing a little hold up, but they were so kind, patient, and helpful to me. The supervisor, David, helped me with everything and even offered me a drink. After we finally got it sorted, I went to sit down and wait for my order. I was looking around during this time and taking note of my surroundings, and I came to notice that all of the workers were just being so kind and actually seemed to be enjoying their job. I know that's the Chick-fil-A standard, but it was just really nice to see. My catering order was done early, and David even gave us a complimentary tray of cookies for my boss and my troubles, and he helped me take my order to my car. All in all, this was a wonderful experience, and Chick-fil-A McKnight has some wonderful workers/staff. Will definitely be going back there!“

“Team member Chris was our cashier today. It was extremely busy and he was kind and polite. Thank you for your good customer service!“

“I've had a few not so good experiences at this location. But today they redeemed their selves! The Mac and Cheese was so good. Black folks good. And the chicken was perfect.“

“Went on a Saturday evening for dinner, and it was practically empty. I guess this is more of a takeaway place than a dine in place. You place your order at the cash register, and then when your food is ready, they bring it out to your table in a paper bag. You can choose to take it away or eat there. I got the deluxe chicken sandwich, which is sort of a breakfast sandwich with bacon and egg, and then a nice fried chicken patty. I also got the coleslaw on the side. The chicken was extremely tender, and the overall was very flavourful. It’s a good chicken sandwich, but it did not blow me away. The coleslaw had a little bit more mayonnaise than I like. Overall, a decent meal.“

“Excellent! I had the small order of chicken fingers and I couldn't finish it! It was the tastiest chicken I've ever had. The fries and slaw were also very good. My husband had the catfish and he enjoyed it very much. Our food was served fast and was still very hot when we got it home. I will definitely be ordering again!“

“I had the 3 pc meal. The chicken was great- the breast was so tender and moist, the red beans & rice were delicious as always and I tried the Mac & cheese and found it great too. Will definitely be back“

“This spot is one of the best locations ever. The employees are hardworking sweethearts too— they even recognize me and remember my name! The food, while certainly not fine dining, is always warm and fresh. Again, it is fast food but the service is fantastic and food is too. Everyone needs to recognize these hard workers. They feed us!!“
