48 Best Chicken Restaurants near Reston

“It’s the best broiled chicken I’m was eat !!! The atmosphere was very friendly“

“Very tasty Nando’s has a very great creative menu you can choose from with different sauces.“

“Just swung by the Chick-fil-A at North Point Village Center, and it lived up to the hype! The chicken sandwich was, as always, perfectly cooked and flavorful, and those waffle fries? Still the best in the game. The service was also super friendly and efficient, even during what looked like a busy time. While I didn't do delivery, I overheard a couple of folks mentioning some recent order issues, so maybe dine-in is the safer bet for now. Overall though, still a solid and satisfying fast-food experience.“

“I stopped by this Chick fil A while in uniform and was really impressed with the level of care and customer service. The manager on shift went out of his way to make sure everything was taken care of and treated me with genuine kindness and respect. You can tell the team here takes pride in what they do. The service was fast, the staff was friendly, and the atmosphere felt welcoming from the moment I walked in. Truly one of the best Chick fil A experiences I’ve had. Highly recommend this location.“

“I stopped here for an ubereats order and had to come back after delivering it. You could smell the chicken wafting into the parking lot when you walk up. I got the Pollo saltado if I remember correctly, with yuca and beans and rice. Absolutely bomb chicken with a whole lotta flavor. Its a good meal for your buck which I appreciate in this economy. I also got a Tamarind drink that lasted me the rest of the afternoon. I think I sipped it slowly because I was scared of finishing it, it was so good.
The atmosphere wasn't really my vibe, and that's okay. I didn't get the name of the guy that served me, bald guy, but he was funny and kindly communicative. There were also a few lads watching a soccer match in the lobby, but other than them there was nobody. If I have one regret after visiting here, it's that I didn't sit inside and watch that game while I ate.
Overall, coming from someone who's usually too scared to try new restaurants, I'm glad I tried this one. Will definetly be stopping here again to try the rest of the menu and see if I can't learn a thing or two about sports 👍“

“Caveat on this review: I don't eat the food, just order it for the fam. The online ordering interface is fabulous: easy to navigate, doesn't require you to confirm choices multiple times, offers great customizations. And the animations are clever and charming.“

“Went to the opening of Sheffield store was nice and clean food was excellent staff were friendly especially Matty ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“LOVED Madina Pollo Reina! We got the chicken kabobs and they were soooo delicious! All of our sides were really tasty, too! We also got vegetable samosas which were perfectly fried! The spicy green sauce with the samosas was great! Definitely ordering from there again!!!! 😋“

“We have worked with Charity, at the Fair Lakes Chick-fil-A, many times for our Waples Mill Elementary PTA and can’t be more complementary! They have supported countless events, we’ve made purchases from this store for our families, and today they donated 2boxed of coffee with all of the accoutrements for our PTA Board meeting. We are just incredibly thankful for their community, outreach and generosity! Thank you so much, you are a wonderful!! Sincerely, The Waples Mill PTA Family“

“TL;DR: Good Korean Fried Chicken, but has lots of other dishes/options

I haven't been to Chi Mc for over 10 years, but we tried the newer Centreville location over the summer. Interior is very cute - dark lighting, string lights, etc. They have plenty of tables, but also a bar area with TVs to enjoy a game.

Service is always friendly, but at times they can be understaffed, so be patient. Food comes out quickly, except the fried chicken which they preface will take about 20 minutes, since it's made to order.

FOOD:
~Fries (5/5): nice and crispy; very well seasoned. Comes with ketchup and spicy mayo

~Fried Chicken (5/5): 2 Flavors: Soy Garlic or Spicy - both flavorful;
~~2 types: wings (typically wings/drumettes) or drums (giant drumstick)
~~We like the wings (the drums are too large and doesn't absorb as much flavor). It is so crispy and has a good amount of meat on it

~Tteokbokki (4.5/5): One of my favorite tteokbokkis in the area. Comes with dumplings and gimmari (but they get soggy fast). I add ramen noodles too. The sauce is usually a good consistency, but at times it is a little watery

~Maneul dakddongjip (2/5): chicken gizzards. It was just okay. Gizzards are meant to be chewy, but these were a little too much/kind of burnt. The flavor was a little lacking, and the dish was overall very greasy

~Chicken katsu with cream udon (5/5): The katsu was surprisingly really good, though non-traditional. Reminded me of country fried steak breading. The cream udon was very good. Udon was cooked nicely with great chew. The sauce had a lot of garlic flavor and wasn't too rich from all the cream. Nicely balanced.

~Beers come in a nice frosted mug which is a nice touch

Definitely have enjoyed every visit we have had here.“

“Good food! Fast service, friendly and Courteous staff.“

“A great place to bring the kids, because they have a play area (that is clean). The staff is always friendly and goes the extra mile offering to get drink refills or throw out your trash when you are done eating. The gold standard for fast food dining experiences. The owner/operator is a servant leader and strives to instill this in his employees, leading by example! Tried the diet sunjoy today with a side salad. Good stuff!“

“The food’s great! I think its best hot chicken sandwich we’ve tried in the area. We tried it for the first time last Saturday and went back today again, within a week! Only disappointment today was that the slider’s cole slaw was so little on our to-go order.. it wasnt like this last week when we tried it at the restaurant. Still willing to go back though!“

“I tried their food for the first time yesterday, based on a recommendation of a new employee at my place of work. I was absolutely shocked by how delicious the sandwich was. The chicken was crispy and juicy and the rooster sauce was dynamite! After lunch, I recommended it to another coworker who then also ordered it for lunch and tried it for the first time. She said she had the same experience I had- life changing! If you’re looking for a chicken sandwich, this is the place to go!“

“The service was outstanding! The food was fresh abs hot !! Great place“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“Pollo Peru – Flavorful Simplicity with Top-Notch Service
I went with the rotisserie chicken breast, steamed white rice, and black beans—and it did not disappoint. The chicken was juicy, tender, and packed with that smoky, well-seasoned rotisserie flavor. The rice was fluffy and clean, while the black beans brought a rich, savory punch that tied the whole plate together.

Portions were decent—not over-the-top, but enough to leave you satisfied. What really stood out, though, was the service. Friendly, fast, and genuinely welcoming. They made the whole experience feel easy and enjoyable.

If you're after a fresh, flavorful meal that hits the spot without weighing you down, Pollo Peru is a solid choice.“

“Best customer service I’ve experienced in awhile. Luis was great and kept checking up on us to make sure we were enjoying the food. Will definitely come back. THANKYOU LUIS!!“

“David was at the register and was so helpful and kind. I was worried that I got there too close to closing but he assured me no problem. He walked me through the menu and showed me the to go items as well. I had never been to this restaurant before and now it’s my favorite restaurant! The food is so delicious, healthy, and comforting! Will be back soon! Thanks! This has great keto/low carb options! Also I’m very picky about ranch and your ranch is delicious!“

“Clean, bright, and good vibes all around. A great spot to chill and enjoy some spicy food. Laid-back atmosphere with good music and a welcoming feel. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy—easily some of the best Nashville-style hot chicken I’ve had!“

“I love this location. It is convenient to me and the food quality is also very good. This restaurant feels abundant space, wide and clean. The waiting section is also good.

Price is okay for the amount and quality you pay for. Usually, I order 2~3 items when I visit and eat for 2~3 times.“

“I don’t usually write reviews for fast food restaurants but I was impressed with the service and how friendly everyone was at this Chick-fil-a. I was greeted with smiles even right before I walked into the restaurant. This really makes the customers feel welcome“

“Well, personally i love the environment there. The people there are friendly and welcome the customers with love. Talking about the food i really love it. It’s well cooked, and made freshly as well.. Overall, its just wow… i love the momo’s there a lot ❤️❤️“

“Great late night food option. The chicken fingers tasted fresh and tender. I was actually surprised with the big portion sizes, which is a rare thing these days.

Deduct 1 point because we tried calling and they didn't answer, others have complained about this as well from the reviews.“

“Super Chicken in Sterling is always a win! The rotisserie chicken is juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly every time. The sides are fresh and delicious, and the green sauce is a must. Customer service by Leo is excellent — friendly, attentive, and makes you feel truly welcomed. Definitely one of my favorite spots in the area! 🍗🔥“

“Best Korean fried chicken in DMV period. Lots of great choices but my personal underrated favorite is the Curry Snow Wings. Amazing kick to it. I highly recommend trying this place.“

“Our vehicle broke down in the parking lot. The manager- Dakota came out to help- got us water for the overheated engine. He assured us that we would not be towed by leaving it there until we could get it moved.
He then told us our meals and drinks- for 4 of us was taken care of.
He and the staff went above and beyond to make a very stressful situation, much more pleasant.
We cannot say enough about Chick-fil-A and Dakota's exemplary customer service!
Thank you again!“

“My family love this place.“

“The best place to eat

Dietary restrictions: The attention to detail, professionalism, and commitment to excellence truly set this apart. Everything exceeded my expectations—from the quality of the product/service to the exceptional customer support.“

“Fabulous food ! Friendly staff! Kid friendly ! Everyone was happy !“

“I lived in Georgia for a long time, and that's where Zaxby's started. Everyone had their favorite spot, some better than others. This is the only one I know of in Virginia. I'm not sure I'd make a special trip, but if I'm in the area, I'll stop by. The food's decent, the place is clean and quiet. The staff was great when I went. It reminds me a little bit of Georgia.

I had buffalo fingers and fries; theirs are seasoned, and I really like them when they're hot. My friend had the chicken sandwich. You can pick your spice level, but it's not super intense like some hot chicken places. There's plenty of food, ours was hot and fresh, and we enjoyed it.“

“A child-friendly, positive, and clean atmosphere with incredible & fast customer service!“

“The food was hot, fresh, and delicious. They were accurate with spicy levels, which has not been my experience at other Hangry Joes. The employees were super nice and helpful. Happy to have them in the community.“

“I had the pleasure of experiencing a taste that brought me back to Korea in the 1990s. The flavor of the chicken here perfectly captured the nostalgic essence of my youth, reminding me of the simpler and happier times of my younger days. The seasoning and texture were exactly how I remembered it—deliciously comforting and full of rich, authentic flavors. It’s not just food; it’s a trip down memory lane. I’m so grateful to have found a place that can recreate such cherished memories through their amazing dishes. Highly recommend it to anyone who’s looking for a taste of nostalgia or simply great food!“

“It is so hot my mouth was on fire if you like hot it is for you“

“Id say in the top 2 of the peruvian style chicken places in VA. We stopped (2 hr travel) almost at closing time after the xmas light show. Genuinely delighted to serve the many customers in the wave. Very flavorful everything. Will come back again and again.“

“I love this food and I definitely recommend this food to your friends and your family. They have the app and is very easy to order. You always get good prices and good discounts so I definitely will come back here with my family like I always do.“

“Absolutely love the Chick-fil-A in Fairfax City. Every visit is positive, but today was especially great. The employee who helped us was incredibly kind, genuinely welcoming, and had such a great sense of humor—it truly made our day. You can tell the staff here actually care about their customers and enjoy what they do. Consistently excellent service, friendly faces, and a great atmosphere. This location sets the standard for customer service.“

“Every time I crave "Chic Fil A" they're closed. Why do they have to be closed on Sundays?“

“Nothing special. It's consist, sometimes the wait is a little longer than it should be, but not bad also not great. I do think the prices are getting to be a little out of hand especially since corporate took away some of the original sides.“

“My first visit here was fantastic. I placed a to go order around 5:45 PM and I was greeted when I came in and the staff is just excellent. Everyone was working very hard and I was treated so well. The food was really yummy and I look forward to coming in again. Bravo!!!“

“you’ve proven once again you have the best customer service around. I was just at your Sugarland Crossing location this morning in Sterling, Virginia, and I picked up a curbside mobile order and upon arriving home, I realized it was missing one part of my order. So I went back and was offered not the exact item that I had ordered for breakfast, but it was a similar item. Your manager offered a cookie or some thing along with that to offer his apologies and really all I wanted was the spicy fillet that I had ordered but he was more than apologetic and was extremely helpful. These are the things that keep me coming back to Chick-fil-A time and time again“

“I have only tried Popeyes a couple of times. The first time was in Raleigh, NC, and it was terrible. With that said, this location is fantastic and defines what Popeye’s should be. The service was excellent and fast. My food was hot and made well. If you want a quick, satisfying lunch or dinner, this location is a must-try.

Parking: There is a free parking lot.“

“I really enjoyed my visit to this branch of Popeye's. I live in the UK and was visiting the area, and a local friend suggested we eat here. The regular non-spicy chicken sandwich that I ordered was truly the best chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. Over the years of visiting the East coast of the US, I have eaten at many Chick-fil-a's, and though I really like their chicken sandwich, I now have a new favourite.“

“I think it's a good one! Better than the one in Greenbriar.“
