Mouthwatering Chicken Shop in Austin

Inka Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.3 (864) • $$

"My go-to for roasted chicken. Do not--I repeat-- do not skip the chicken. Typically my family and I order one of the family meals which comes with a whole chicken and your side of choices and corn or flour tortillas. The chicken is roasted perfectly making the skin charred and crispy while the meat remains soft and juicy. My favorite side are the black beans, plantains and yucca frita.Also check out the lomo saltado which has sautéed beef, vegetables, fries, and rice.I've been here quite a few times now and they always seem to get our tortilla order incorrect. We order corn but they always bring flour tortillas! Nevertheless, the family meals provide you with so much food already that I personally don't need the extra side of carbs so it's not a deal breaker."

Whip My Soul

★★★★★ 4.7 (619) • $$

"I finally made it to Whip My Soul, and let me tell y'all--this place is the real deal! From the moment I walked in, the staff welcomed me like family, with warm smiles and genuine hospitality. You can feel the love and care they put into both their food and their service.Now, let's talk about the food--absolute perfection! I had the chicken & waffles, fried gizzards, and a Kool-Aid from their drink station, which was such a nostalgic touch. The chicken was crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and seasoned to perfection. The waffles? Light, fluffy, and the perfect balance of sweet and buttery. And those fried gizzards? Chef's kiss! They were cooked just right--crispy, flavorful, and not too tough.This is true soul food, the kind that reminds you of home. I caught myself doing a little happy dance after the first few bites because it was that good. I'll definitely be back, and if you haven't tried Whip My Soul yet, you're seriously missing out!"

Waffle Love

★★★★☆ 4.2 (386) • $$

"My wife was craving waffles. We couldn't just go to any waffle place. We had to find a place that specialized and made waffles with love. After looking around, we came across waffle love. The name has to say it all.We walked in and felt nice and welcoming. Cashier had so much insight. Let us know what he loved and try the chicken and waffles. Which, by the way, is amazing. We also had the Red Wonder with bananas added to it. This was by far the best waffles I have ever had. So they actually make their waffles with dough and not batter. Which makes them dense and sweet... so good. Never had a genuine Belgium waffle until today. Waffle lo e we will be back ASAP. You can bet!"

Tumble 22

★★★★☆ 4.1 (377) • $$

"Chocolate pie and buttermilk pie were amazing. Definitely one of the best buttermilk pie slices I've ever had - loved that it was kind of citrusy! Chocolate pie was way better than expected, I feel like they're usually super mid but the bitterness from the cocoa powder on top offset the sweetness of the actual pie, and the whipped cream wasn't sweetened much so overall very balanced."

Tumble 22

★★★★☆ 3.6 (329) • $$

"Tumble 22 just killed the fried chicken game. I was with my siblings and we all shared the dirty fries which were UNBELIEVABLE! The best cheesy fries I've had in so long. We all got different kinds of chicken. I love the Korean style option. The chicken was moist and the sauces were a perfect pair. Our server was very helpful and knew exactly how to guide us since it was our first time. I loved the vibe and the friendliness of the staff even with being there the last hour before they closed. We didn't feel rushed and had such an amazing time!Highly recommend."

Pollos Asados El Gallo

★★★★★ 4.6 (121)

"The food here was delicious. Chicken was perfectly cooked. The vibe was just off . The server was very quick and dry with her customer service and help.. the place needed some renovating but if you're looking for a good quick bite to eat! This is the place to try!"

Halal Wings

★★★★☆ 4.1 (139) • $

"Amazing food, best if you order ahead! I read some of the low reviews, seems like people walked in confused, not knowing what they wanted. The 6.99 two thighs two drumsticks is so amazing! The Fries are great!"

Chicknic

★★★★★ 4.6 (62)

"I make a phenomenal brined, roasted chicken so haven't had their roasted chook yet, but I was under the weather and too ill to make my own broth. Making bone broth is ridiculously easy. While I do think this one tastes pretty delicious, I think nine dollars for an 8 ounce little cup of soup is much too expensive. It should be closer to five dollars. That's over $1 and ounce. I realize everything has gotten more expensive, but that is insane. Not to self to keep homemade in the freezer. I can make a 1/2 gallon or more for the same price. They should rename the broth liquid gold since it's so spendy."

Urban Bird Hot Chicken

★★★★☆ 3.6 (82) • $$

"Ordered via Favor. Highly recommended on Favor so decided to try. Got the 2 tenders, Tennessee bbq with extra seasoning on fries. Super fresh. Very moist and cooked to perfection. Could not judge on ambiance but the quality of service in regards to the food is awesome."

Rusty Birds

★★★★★ 5 (39)

"YUM! I visited Ollie Birds for the first time today and it is delicious! We got the half bird (all white meat) and will definitely be back to try the sides, wraps, and salads. The all white half bird is very generous. The breasts were huge, and one of them was plenty for me and my toddler and 1 year old. The service is excellent and super friendly. Don't miss out on this place!!"

Rusty Rooster

★★★★☆ 3.7 (24) • $

"Stopped in on the way back to Austin. Got the gizzards and gravy, drive thru, it took an extra few minutes to get but they were freshly hot. Gravy was good and batter was perfect for gizzards. Not sure about anything else, but would like to try more next time I'm in Luling. Good sweet tea too."

"Definitely worth the 10 mile trek from I-10. The staff was very friendly and they serve the best fried chicken I've had in quite a long time. It was breaded and fried to order, and delivered to our table hot and juicy. Our bill was under $22 for three dark meat combos (2@2 piece and 1@3 piece) with one side and drink each. Highly recommended for both quality and value."

Ninja Chicken

★★★★☆ 4.3 (12)

"Stopped by this food truck park and decided to grab some Colombian food and I'm sure glad I did! The chicken was super flavorful (ask them what they use as a marinade, it's pretty crazy!) and I got to try Malta, a refreshing drink popular in Colombia. I sampled a few other items on the appetizers menu and wasn't disappointed. This truck is a great addition to the 4 Points area and I highly recommend it!"

"As passerby's, we enjoyed the prompt service and good food. I ordered the 3 piece dark chicken which I enjoyed. The mash potatoes were good. Kids shared the chicken strip platter and said "they are really good!" I wish we ordered a dozen of the busquits, so yummy. Now, for the funnel cake fries, it's the taste of a funnel cake without the mess! The only thing is the order is small, one order per person. I assume you have to ask for napkins, spoons, and forks because we didn't receive any which made the drive a little difficult."

Pollo Caliente

★★★★★ 4.5 (4)

"Excellent pollo asado, very reasonably priced. Best in the area by far! The baked potatoes are A+ also."

Flame Bird Hot Chicken - Austin

★★★★☆ 3.5 (4)

"Fries - 8/10 (Well seasoned)Sandwiches- 4/10 (chicken quality was good but the patties were very salt and unique flavors were not good)Other - didn't come with ranch even though ordered and it's a ghost kitchen so not ideal"
