Chicken King

Food was good and service was awesome, the ladies at the front taking orders were great and the place appeared to be clean and area wasn't too bad either. I will definitely go by again this is my first time and won't be my last.

Legit dive. Regs only so expect a lot of stares on your first time in. Do get chicken dinner on your first visit. This is what they're known for so it's a good idea to start at the top. The chef salad was selling like hot cakes when I was there for lunch. I think 8 orders went out during my 30-40 minute visit. I prob won't try it but if you're looking for a "healthier" option, then go with that. Parking is tough and large group seating is even tougher. Most customers were just picking up instead of dining in. But I'm about vibes...

Don't let the storefront fool you! The food is good !!!! And I must say, their homemade ranch is some of the best ranch I've ever had!! Well, as the name tells you it's a chicken joint lol but they have more than chicken. They offer burgers, fish, philly cheese steak, gyros, hot dogs, pork chops sandwiches .... I mean if you have a taste for it, they may have it ! Even the fries are seasoned nicely and taste delicious. I have been here multiple times over the years and I have yet to get something I did not enjoy. Definitely try the chicken if you haven't as it bares their name. Other delicious items include the gyros and the chicken sandwich. If you looking for a good priced meal, delicious and fresh food for the family try them out!

So everyone should have their local greasy spoons so this one is mine!Not only do I know the staff but I've been going to the chicken king restaurants since college. They have several location throughout the Charlotte area, and I will admit all the ones that I've been too have been equally as good! Even though their name is chicken king don't be afraid to try their salads which don't disappoint!!!I have to admit I normally get their fried fish sandwich, pork chop sandwich or their cheeseburgers. On this visit I stuck to their name fried chicken ( I also got fries and fried okra) the meal definitely hit the spot! Prices area no more than 15 dollars and they also have fried chicken gizzards for those who eat them!!!

I've been dying to try this place. I'm so disappointed. I ordered a two piece thigh & leg with green beans, mashed potatoes and gravy. The green beans were the best thing on the plate. Even the shell makes way better fried chicken. The mashed potatoes tasted like the potato flakes that come in the box that you add water to.. not even a name brand box for crying out loud. They were watery & I hated them.I took one bite of the chicken & my mouth filled with oil. It's like they took the chicken out the vegetable oil & put it right on the plate without straining off some of it. I can still taste it hours later. I can't stand the taste of vegetable oil. The lemonade was delicious.

I was highly disappointed by the way their BBQ chicken wings were prepared. I thought with a name like "Chicken King" they would be on top of their chicken game, sadly, not so. I ordered 8 BBQ chicken wings and got 8; that is where it went in the wrong direction. In my 60+ years of eating BBQ wings, I have never had the displeasure of eating deep-fried, batter-coated wings with BBQ sauce poured over them and called BBQ wings. Yes, I said poured, not dipped, because if they had dipped the wings, at least there would have been BBQ sauce coating the entire wing - as it was, most of the wing was missing BBQ sauce. This is so wrong on so many levels!I know I will have to go elsewhere to get my BBQ Wing fix as this place does not know how to properly fix BBQ Wings!

Ok so I've been here too many times to count and can't believe I haven't left a review. Maybe I secretly don't want the people to know about this place :) I haven't had a thing here I didn't love. Chicken wings, fried shrimp, chicken pita, gyro, fish, cheeseburgers, FRIES, fried okra, etc. I'm embarrassed to say but you name it I've probably tried it. The portions are always overflowing to the point of the takeout boxes not closing. The ladies at the front are always so nice and seem to remember everyone's names or know what's going on in their patrons lives. It's such a great sense of community. It feels like you're going to pick up food from a family members house. You know, the ones who you trust and will actually eat their food. I haven't eaten inside yet but I will one of these days. I'm sure there will be lots of people watching bc this place stays busy. But in a good way. Oh I almost forgot!! You have to try the cake! Doesn't matter what flavor. Just try the cake!

The food was very fresh, hot and delicious,, ordered the 6 piece chicken wing dinner Philly cheesesteak and fries and the double cheeseburger, in which I only requested burger on this order. Service by staff was very friendly and courteous, will be returning very soon. This was the WT Harris site.

Ordered thru a delivery service. I got the fish platter with french fries, hush puppies and dressing, with both cocktail and tartar sauces. When it arrived everything was so greasy, the hush puppies were burned and sitting in the liquid from the coleslaw . The texture of the fish was mushy and there were bones in both pieces. The coleslaw was warm and nasty. The dressing wasn't delivered at all. The cocktail sauce was a weird kind of chunky, like jello that was smashed with a fork. The fries were greasy and unsalted and no ketchup was provided. This was one of the worst meals I've had in quite a long time. If I could give this "restaurant" minus 2 stars, I absolutely would. Just horrible.

Fish & Shrimp Plate French Fries with hush puppies. Food was fresh service was good. Also had a side salad
