Chicken Shops in Austin, TX

“The OG sandwich was amazing! My wife said her hot nuggets were the bomb. This will be our go to for spicy chicken!“

“I was born and raised in Louisiana and today I was REALLY missing home, especially the food. I found this spot and the reviews don’t do it justice, this is THE best soul food anywhere around. I was transported back to my childhood and it was emotional. I went from being a little sad and homesick to being on cloud nine. I didn’t know what to choose, so I got a sample platter with pork chop, fried fish and a chicken wing. And I got candied yams, grits, cornbread and sweet tea and it was EVERYTHING. I can’t wait to go back and I rarely take pictures of my food, but I had to take one to share.“

“One likely reason a takeout-only spot like Pollo Regio at 6615 Berkman Dr in Austin boasts an impressive 4.8‑star rating from over 3,000 reviews is the sheer consistency and quality of its core offering: grilled (pollo asado) chicken. A glowing review on MapQuest mentions “pleasant staff, short ticket times, good food,” and specifically praises the grilled‑chicken baked potato . Another review highlights that their food “is ALWAYS on point… very delicious” .

Beyond the chicken itself, the sides and accoutrements clearly leave a strong impression. As far back as 2003, the Austin Chronicle noted the “scrumptious green avocado salsa… fiery and creamy all at once,” along with fresh homemade sides and charred grilled onions—elements that elevate a simple take‑home experience into something memorable .

Moreover, friendly and efficient service powerfully enhances customer satisfaction. Patrons have described the staff as “professional, friendly, and loads of fun,” and appreciated the speed and reliability—even when ordering delivery .

All these factors—delicious, consistent food; standout, handmade sides and sauces; and positive, fast service—combine to create a gratifying, repeatable experience that yields high ratings. For many customers, Pollo Regio’s takeout is not mere convenience—it’s a go‑to solution for quality, flavor, and satisfaction.“

“Plant based OG was amazing, but the come back sauce makes you wanna holler” I’m coming back for mo and mo!!!!!!!“

“Alright came in for the bomb chicken. Ended up with even better company and conversation! CJ doin big things in this place definitely kept a smile on my face. Oh one more thing pecan pie with the vanilla scoop on top set it off for the end.“

“Great chicken! Street corn as very tasty.“

“Great crispy batter, great fries, great sauces and great coleslaw. Food is always hot and fresh. Never had a bad experience.“

“We discovered this place by walking by at Mueller. What a gem!! The Peri Peri chicken was delicious and I love all the different sauces that you can put on it, as well as ordering your preferred spice level. We got the french fries, which were really tasty, the coleslaw, which was had a good tan flavor and the skin on mashed potatoes. All were excellent. The food guy here really fast and everyone was really friendly and helpful. You scan a code and order at your table or you can order at the cash register. We sat outside on a beautiful sunny fall day. It was perfect.“

“Overall a great place for food when you are in a hurry or on the go. I've had the breakfast tacos (picadillo and beef fajita). Also, the hamburger meal and onion rings. The food is really good and reasonably priced. The tacos were pretty small but good. The tortillas are very thin but also really good. They also have a really good mango drink with lots of pulp right next to the register it's super good. They did get a couple minor things mixed up on 2 of the orders but nothing horrible.

It's located inside Weird convenience store, which I love! Staff is friendly and store is very clean and uncluttered. And I'm very impressed with the cleanliness of the bathrooms as well.“

“Delicious! Staff was nice and variety of food options“

“Great quality, fast service and the management team is outstanding.“

“This is the best food truck in that plaza. I highly recommend this restaurant everything on the menu is delicious, I’ve ordered numerous times and the food always comes fresh cooked to order. All the food items tastes incredible im happy with my food every time i order from them. Amazing restaurant i love them.“

“Excellent 1/2 chicken with excellent onion, usual sides. I missed living in the neighborhood near the #2 North Lamar location. I stopped by at a slow time of day, polite staff and great food. Took to go, but the place was clean and ready for business later on in the day. Grabbed a couple neighborhood newspapers as I left.“

“I got the chicken bites with the red velvet waffle in Washington today 10/10 definitely recommend😍“

“Very quick and friendly service“

“Best place to grab a tasty bite. Much cleaner than any other fast food restaurants. The quality of ingredients are very good too. I wish they had a spicier burger sauce like KFC has.
People are very nice and kind, and the service is quick.“

“came in for take-out for two tonight and this location did really well. everything was clean and spotless. this store is really cozy. arianna took our order with zero problems while being really friendly and caring. arianna had great customer service. food came out fast and was more fresh than other locations. would come again.“

“Pollo Campero is inside a mini mart so the atmosphere is not the point. It's comfort food fried chicken and sides with a delicious flavor. Nice and crispy, great seasoning. Great for days when you want a comfort food meal at a good price.

Vegetarian options: Not a vegetarian place

Dietary restrictions: Not the place if you're watching your diet for health reasons.

Kid-friendliness: It's in a Convenience Store. It is what it is.

Wheelchair accessibility: Not great, but it can be done“

“I ordered the whole chicken and it came with a small container of rice and beans. It also came with a grilled onion, half a lime, several corn tortillas, red salsa and green salsa. Everything was amazing! The chicken was delicious, the rice was good, the beans were great both salsas are great but I prefer the red one. The green one was too spicy for me. The portions of rice and beans are small so if you are ordering for a large group, you should probably order extra rice and beans.“

“My new favorite chicken. Perfectly seasoned white meat falls off the bone. Great sides, friendly service, not expensive.“

“A massive thank you to Chris! His cordiality, sense of humour, and enthusiasm brightened my spirits. In particular, it was clear I wasn't from around these parts and I wasn't sure as to what I should order. Immediately, Chris made some suggestions, was friendly, and demonstrated knowledge of the menu. Thank you to him! :)“

“I'm a huge CFA fan and love visiting different locations. I went to this one last week to grab a quick bite. The staff was friendly and always smiled. I asked for extra paper bags, and they readily gave them to me.

The CFA app is beautifully designed and easy to use, so I always use it to place my orders. The rewards are great, too, and they keep me coming back at least once a week!“

“This is the Chick-fil-A location I stop by the most because its right in the middle of campus, but its almost always super busy so you are in for a wait especially around times people get out of class. Located in the SAC, there is a lot of traffic through the building so it gets pretty loud while you are waiting in line and sometimes it feels like the line isn't moving but the workers here move as quickly as possible. Due to the lengths of the line I cant help but feel like I am going to be waiting forever but I think that I've never really waited over 10-15 minutes max as my longest wait time over the years. I also can't help but feel that the menu here looks a bit smaller than it would at one of the normal chain restaurant Chick-fil-As but they always have what I want so I can't really complain. Also, this Chick-fil-A is a Tapingo partner so I can order my food through an app and just come and pick it up which is super convenient and I have come to rely on this method even though it incurs a small service fee. The seating here is also kind of crazy because its part of a food court in a heavily trafficked area so be prepared to potentially not find seating after getting your food. It's overall never been a bad experience for me to grab a quick meal here so if you have upwards of 15 minutes to spend on getting food then I would just recommend coming here and grabbing it on your way home or to your next class.“

“The team is always so friendly and polite, I felt welcomed from the moment the first employee saw me, I got their spicy chicken sandwich meal and it tasted just as I remembered it, I love that they still do free refills on the lemonades, Chic Fil A for the win!!“

“I came home from work really stressed, in a really bad mood, and I was a bit hungry. I stopped by Chick-fil-A and was lucky enough to run into Fernando. He was so kind, helpful, and attentive. Thank you for having such efficient and capable leaders. Excellent manager! I'm leaving happy and not hungry, lol.“

“This was my first time visiting this establishment. I’m here for a college graduation from Atlanta. I must say, being a chef and a person that serves, the service was immaculate and the food was simply amazing. Service was fast, cashier was very courteous, friendly & patient. The order did not come out correctly, however, the gentleman that waited on us was very quick to correct the order. Wow! What an amazing staff that was behind the counter. Everyone that was behind the counter began to pitch in when the dining room began to fill. I didn’t see anyone in particular instruct the staff to do that. I noticed that saw a need and filled it. Great job & great food. Highly recommend! I will be returning when I come back to Austin.“

“All the staff here are great! Every time I visit this location I am greeted with happy faces and friendly people!! It’s as if they enjoy their job!! 🙏 today it was a guy named Beau that took my order. Very uplifting mood and great attitude!!

As with every chick fil a I have been to, service, food, cleanliness way above your regular fast food place!!“

“This was my first time in to pick up. I always order through Favor I believe, or 1 of the delivery apps. Jordan was there and gave me a great customer experience. His hospitality was incredible....we had a large order and he helped me to the car! Food was amazing as usual... the Jalapeño Fish Salad is a favorite and their Fried Chicken is hands down, best in town. Thank You Jordan and Halal Wings for a great lunch today!“

“Vincent was absolutely amazing in the drive-thru! He was so patient, took the time to explain the points system through the app, and carefully walked me through all my meal options without rushing me at all. Truly great customer service, 10/10, will definitely be back!“
