Convenient Food Mart

Best Fried chicken around ....get a 12 pack of jo jos to boot.

Lil Chets is within Convenient Food Mart - but I enjoy both equally. Let's talk about the Chicken! Walk in, go to the back, and order some quick chicken. White, dark, legs, you name it they got it! Plus I love the breaded potato wedges (ho-jos, jo jos) or whatever you call them. Try the broccoli salad too! So good. We get Lil Chet's chicken in Convenient about once a week, for $13 it feeds a family of 5. Try it for a quick dinner!

The prepared food here is incredible, especially the fried chicken.... best I've ever had. And don't even get me started on the banana bread, it changed my life. Although I did buy expired fig newtons here once. I still recommend.

Love this place.Food is always fresh and service friendly and fast. They have great specials on fresh meat and deli. The donuts and coffee is pretty good too!

NOW I GET IT!First and very important, people like to say the next generation doesn't like to work. In all fairness, we can't glom all young people in this category. I walked in Lil' Chet's to witness a young man vacuuming the floor, a very kind, patient and broad smiling young lady named Grace who wore the business brand well and then a taller, young man at the cash register and three other younger associates all busy at their post. I always thank people who are working these days but I'll go as far to say these associates were raised right. Bravo to whoever hired so many good workers. Now the Chicken. I walkTo the back of the store and there it is.....a trove of fried chicken. I can't tell you how many people I know rave about this fried chicken. They say "it's the best around". I have driven past this place so many times, usually with somewhere to go.This time someone took the wheel and steered me straight in their lot. So I go in to see what all the fuss is about.Grace explained the difference of the chicken selection was. Just to sample, I opted for two thighs and one breast for beef and my wife with a side of sweet mustard. Got home to try it....Rats! I should have bought more....The chicken was done right. Crispy, not greasy. In fact, if I had to rush out of the house, I know I could turn the doorknob with out washing the grease off my fingers. Breasts were not dry, thighs were tender, better than average in size and the mustard dip had a familiar taste to it but just enough off to make me consider it wasn't store bought and repackaged. So NOW I GET IT! What all the fuss was about. I'll be back for sure.

I've lived in N. Ridgeville 14 years now and this is the ONLY place I'd get fried chicken. Much better than any other place around, even my own home made!! The various sides are all equally tasty. And you cannot beat the price for the quality you get! People behind the counter are helpful and patient. Now I want to go there and get some!

I can't say enough good things about this place! Fantastic chicken, salads and deli; snacks and beverages; a small produce and dairy section; fresh meats. I've called ahead for a party for 10 and frequently pop in for dinner for one or two. It truly is convenient! Plus, everyone is friendly and helpful.
