20 Best Chicken Restaurants in Alexandria

“Really good chicken sandwich! A lot like a Philly, but with chicken. Very moist, and had green peppers, onions, tomato, lettuce....but this was a sandwich where the flavor of the chicken stood out. It was really good! They had two sauces, a white sauce and green. The green was guacamole, but the white, I'm not sure...but it was good as well! I also had a flan....great!. The price was reasonable, flavors were great, and the juiciness was perfect. Oh, the bread was good too! Not soggy, and not hard.“

“Absolutely delicious! The best chicken in town!“

“The food like any other Dave’s, but the moment I got to this one the entire team was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and attentive from the moment I walked in. The manager was especially kind and made sure everything was perfect, which really stood out. It's clear that they genuinely care about their customers and providing excellent service.“

“Best fried chicken in the DMV, hands down. Good food at a good price. It’s literally a hole in the wall but who cares, they do what they do and keep the prices low as a result.

SO GLAD something in town hasn’t changed from the old days!“

“Big fan of Wooboi and tried all spice levels they have to offer from classic, no spice at all, to Code Blue, which is their Carolina Reaper sauce. Last one is worth it for spice heads and if you do attempt final spice challenge, Code Blue only, ask to write your name on the wall.“

“The food is absolutely wonderful! I was visiting in the area. I live 5 hours away and I can’t stop thinking about it. I had the wings, mac n cheese, candied yams, and corn bread. The portions are nice. I tried my husband’s seasoned rice and it was great too. The next time I go back, I am going to try the spinach.“

“It was so good that I ate here twice in 24 hours. The Yuca fries and plantains were the best I’ve ever had - not too greasy. The people there were super nice and it’s definitely an amazing stop for authentic South American food!“

“Jollibee in Alexandria was a fun and tasty stop when I wanted something different from the usual chicken places. The fried chicken was crispy, juicy, and had a flavor that stood out, and I liked that the menu also included items like spaghetti, burgers, and unique sides. The location in Plaza at Landmark was easy to find, and the ordering process was simple. It worked well for a quick dine-in meal, but takeaway is convenient too. Overall, it was a satisfying spot for comfort food with a different twist.“

“Sardi's provides surprisingly good food for a mid-tier restaurant that is oriented for take-out more than dining in. The Lomo Saltado (sauteed steak, onions, and tomatoes served over french fries and rice) was extremely tasty and well worth the $23 price. Although we ate in, I also ordered a meal for later. The take away boxes are well-made, so you can have confidence that your meal will not spill. Finally, Cynthia on the staff was very attentive and accommodating.“

“I’ve had more hangry joes since I’ve moved out east than any other restaurant, my family and I *love* it. Biggest caveat, which is one of their strengths, is that the restaurant makes everything fresh… The spice levels have been variable at the five or six different ones I’ve been to! I only get mild, it sometimes the mild is too spicy. Then I’ll ask for “no heat” and it will be completely unseasoned…. If I could just find some consistency in their mild, I’d be good to go. LOL So far my favorite location has been crystal city around the pentagon shops. They always add ranch, and the cook is impeccable!“

“service is excellent, clean and warm environment. situated on King Street food tasty“

“Great food! The menu has a lot more options now as well.“

“Dining at shababi was an absolute delight. I came to celebrate after I finished taking my board exams and I couldn’t have chosen a better place. To start they brought some hummus topped with shredded beef and beat spread, which the former was my favorite. They later brought the roasted chicken which had been marinated for 48 hours plus. Every bite was so flavorful. As this is a pop up I recommend you go soon and get a feel for Palestinian food“

“Bottom line, you want good chicken, look no further. Been here multiple times and it’s always delicious. The dining space is basic, but clean, if a little worn. If soccer isn’t on the screens, it’s NEWSMAX. So, take from that what you will.“

“Excelente servicio lo recomiendo“

“The food was absolutely spectacular the chicken was crispy, juicy and flavorful. Upon entering, the wonderful and kind host saw the Popeyes shrimp I was holding and promptly gave me some of his own at no charge. The shrimp were delicious and textured. The Mac and cheese was cheesy, tasty and full of texture. The chicken was clean and tender. The host was so incredibly kind and provided us with complimentary drinks. The service truly elevated the overall experience and was incredible.“

“By far the best Sopa de Res you can order in the area. The broth is amazing, and the meat tender and seculant (pause). The Peruvian chicken is pretty decent. But it depends on the day you get it how great it is. Staff is friendly and they don’t skimp on the green sauce“

“They had the chicken sandwich that all the Popeye's in my neighborhood were sold out of! Long lines of course, but the employees moved quickly and efficiently and our food was fresh and hot. Win-Win for late Friday night!“

“Went to the store this evening and I was impressed by the speed of service, courtesy of employees and the great tasting tenders. This store is one of my favorites as I can always expect to get fresh food. What's more important is that the restaurant is always clean, regardless of the number of customers they have in the store. I was also impressed with the cashier ensuring the food was fresh and they just didn't just throw anything in our box. I honestly wish more fast-food places would out as much time into making sure the customer was happy with their purchase. I will definitely be back.“

“Best burger in town and fresh food“
