17 Best Chicken Restaurants in Chattanooga

“In Chattanooga for a conference and decided to try The Flaming Rooster. Hands down one of the best places to get fried chicken and catfish. The heat and crisp on both were nothing less than perfection. Followed the meal up with lemon pound cake and hubs got the red velvet…nothing but goodness.“

“The best fried chicken! Clients raved about this place and I finally had a chance to visit! We were seated immediately and service by Ann was amazing! She was friendly, attentive, and customer focused! Absolutely delicious fried chicken and frickles! You have to indulge yourself!“

“Quiet environment with friendly service and great portions. We ordered a little much, assuming it would skimp like most other places; however, the food did not disappoint! They have a wide menu to choose from. If there’s anything I would critique, it would be having a more flavorful signature sauce. Aside from that, though, my visit here was great!“

“Edit: the fries have now been consistently good (& fresh!!) so I changed my review from a 1 star to a 5 star. Thank you Chick Fil A (:

Giving a 1 star review in hopes they see this.
They're always super nice and the food is always good, except for the fries!

The fries have tasted nasty the last three times I've gotten them. I've looked at them and they're not burnt, and I don't see a green tint on them, but they taste old and very earthy. I don't know if they just got a bad batch of potatoes in or what but I haven't been able to eat my fries for these past few times“

“Emma L. was our server tonight. We were watching the Bama/ TN game. She was extremely entertaining, along with the staff. She didn't make me feel bad that Bama lost. I give her 5 stars. Sophie H., Allie V., Arissa K., Katelyn G. were also extremely awesome. They make the Lee hwy Champy's a place i look forward to coming to.“

“Big shout out to Summer at the drive thru for spreading good vibes. As I ordered, she complimented a ring I was wearing. I shared with her I had recently lost one of my favorite rings and she said I would probably find it when I least expected to. Well, guess what? Came home and put on gloves for cleaning kitchen and my ring magically appeared inside the glove! Thanks Summer for the good vibes. You made my day!!“

“They have a delicious cheese burger they are huge and taste great the service I’ve seen better.“

“Really great new restaurant!! The chicken was so incredible and there are about 15 other things I want to try when I come back. (Which I definitely will be ) really great lunch spot so if you work around broad or market I highly suggest you stop in.“

“This was my first visit. I was pleasantly surprised. I’ll be back.“

“"A team" Go to Chic filet and you'll see one ❤️. I marvel every time I witness what it is that they do that sets them apart in our everyday world full of chaos. They seem to have the secret sauce when it comes to, well-- everything. No, not their polonisian (but it's good!). Their intentionality, their STANDARD, their people, and their people's commitment to their standard is truly worthy of imitation. But there are few others. It's no surprise to me now WHY their line wraps around their buildings EVERYDAY. But it moves quickly! 🚗💨 Yes, their chicken is good but an "everyday" visit for lunch just doesn't have the same feel at other places -- EVERYday. Chic filet is consistent. Go! You will see agreement IN ACTION between their people and Chic filet's standard that dictates that smooth flow of service for you every time. In contrast, the spirit of our now 'severed world' dictates that people act according to their "rights". But actually "rights" must be rooted in WHAT is RIGHT because RIGHT HAS A STANDARD. Just like at Chick-fil-A a person can't just do whatever he or she FEELS is right (to them) or the flow is sure to be compromised -- for the whole team! 😔 So thank you Chick-fil-A for being such a wonderful example ❤️. Because the real team is HUMANITY which is you and me.“

“My husband brought this home last night, and I was very impressed! Chicken, potato wedges, and rolls were amazing! You should definitely give them a try!“

“This is going to be a very detailed review on my personal experience here at this special location. The morning crew is so wonderful! I have to personally speak on certain people who really brighten up my day! Arielle is a motivated hard worker - she goes above and beyond whether it's meal delivery or being inside at the register, doing drinks or at the window. Her warm smile and eagerness to serve is top tier! Daneriya is another favorite who I enjoy seeing each time I come to dine in! She has such a lovely and beautiful spirit! Very positive and focused when it comes to the early morning rush she goes above and beyond, more than what I expect!!! Jamie is such a hard worker as well! Making sure that everything is in order while also having a true genuine heart and utmost compassion when she speaks to the employees. She has even personally prayed for me when I was going through a hard time. I thank her for that! She really takes the time to talk even if it's just for a second which I admire so very much! I absolutely love seeing Ashton in the mornings, he always has one of the biggest and brightest smiles that you can't help but to smile back even if you aren't a morning person. Lol. Valeria is indeed professional, hardworking and keeps everything in alignment along side with Katherine! They both are excellent with their customer service! I can't forget about David! One of the most important leaders that doesn't just tell people what they need to do but he actually puts in the work and goes out the way to serve the customers with whatever they need. There are other employees I have spoken to that really make this establishment feel like home. They know exactly who they are and their hearts are so beautiful and pure! The atmosphere is pleasant and I definitely feel God whenever I am dining in. Don't hesitate to work here or even sit down to eat with family and friends early mornings on your day off! 10/10 one of the best places to visit or work!!!“

“The gentleman that was working the counter today was so professional and kind. He is a testament pleasant atmosphere of this restaurant. The staff worked well together to get my food quickly and I came at the end of the lunch rush. I had is off to this manager they have definitely put together a good lunch crew.“

“It's a Chic-fil-a! In the mall!!! The last of the restaurants actually in the mall, not on the outskirts.....Food is always good and out to you promptly just like the standalone versions. Service is always with a smile and "my pleasure". Sweet tea will always be my go to with a Number one on a whole wheat bun with Xtra pickles. What do I miss most??? Carrot raisin salad!!!!

Kid-friendliness: Always room for kids

Parking: It's at the mall

Wheelchair accessibility: Easy access, its inside the mall“

“UPDATE: They listened about the food availability during lunch hours and now we're good to go! Great customer service! Original review: Food is good but twice now in the past few visits they are out of chicken strips and most chicken during lunch and dinner prime hours. I hope staff can be told if they see supplies dwindling to fry some more before they run out but they haven't so far. Once done it can sit for a couple of hours under heat lamps so it's not like there's much risk of throwing a bunch of food away. But again the biggest problem is lack of chicken strips being ready.“

“The chicken and biscuits from Raise the Roost inside the 7-Eleven on Newtown Road and Providence are, by far, the worst I've ever had. The chicken was either overcooked and dry, with burnt outsides and —likely due to improper fryer temperatures or incorrect timer settings. The coating was thick and cakey, indicating poor preparation. Even the green beans had no seasoning or taste. I recommend not using salt if you decide to season. To top it off, the bathrooms were in horrible and smelly condition. I would've returned the food if I had time. Thumbs down! I took pictures but you cannot upload“

“Thank you Chick-fil-A Hamilton Place for great employees like Ben N who assisted in carrying gallons of sweet tea & lemonade to my car. He is the epitome of " my pleasure "“
