Based on customer reviews, Side Chick by Ellie Bird serves fried chicken, chicken sandwiches, and whole chicken combos. The fried chicken is a clear highlight, described as absolutely delicious, perfectly crispy on the outside, and cooked just right. The spicy version is absolutely amazing. However, some found the spice negligible and wished for more flavor. The chicken sandwich is good, but the thigh meat can make it soggy to go. Sides receive mixed feedback. The kimchi potato salad is great and has more kick than the spicy chicken. The miso mac and cheese lacked flavor for some, while others said kids devoured it. The cucumbers and slaw are liked. The mashed potatoes with gravy are very runny with an off taste. The cornbread is dry, but the Filipino cornbread (bibingka) is a genius idea. Sauces like the scallion aioli and ranch are good. Portion sizes are noted as weird, with a whole chicken feast having small sides and only two pieces of bread. Packaging is adorable. Some orders had minimal delays or curbside issues. Many customers will return, but some will stick to just the fried chicken.
