Upfront: I'm a chicken snob. So I have been very hesitant of the chicken places all over Woodside. But I was craving some comfort food a few weeks ago & my bf got a combo deal from here. I have to say; it was really good. Not amazing. Not the best. But really good. The batter on the chicken was nice and rich. The coleslaw was the vinegar based on. Mac & cheese was ooey gooey. It was a hearty meal for $20 or so and lasted me *DAYS*.
Wow, was I impressed by this place!!! I had a major month-end fried chicken craving (LADIES, you know what I mean….) and decided to order takeout from here on Seamless. I got two-piece chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy and mac and cheese (there's a $12 delivery min).
Anyway, when the guy came the chicken was still pipin hot and crispy (I live in Sunnyside, so he must have hauled butt!). I LOVE mashed potatoes and gravy, and this was one of the best I've ever had – def top 3 ever for me. And the mac and cheese was all sorts of intense creaminess. The corn bread is shaped like a French toast stick, and tasted pretty good (although corn bread is not really my thing). The only thing I was confused by is that they gave me a small container of what looked like pickle juice (and I literally hate pickles/have almost a pickle juice phobia – don't ask), so that was weird…. I guess that's their "jalapeno vinegar"?? Are you supposed to dip the chicken in it? I don't know…I put it in the trash….
The only thing I wish they had was a three-piece chicken option. At every other chicken place this is what I always get, and it's the perfect amount for me ( I'm like Goldilocks – two is too little and four is too much!).
But otherwise, I LOVE THIS chicken!!!! I can't wait to order it again with my husband so we can get even more chicken 😀
I was one of the regular customers of Mister chicken To Go while their food is delicious the management of this place has to learn how to treat customers!
I purchased whole chicken and waited for my order to be done there was another customer with whole chicken order as well waiting for his order. I saw how they fulfill his order and supplied 4 pieces of corn bread sticks that come with order of whole chicken. I left the place with my order got home little to find out that they didn't place corn bread sticks with chicken.
Now if you ran out of corn bread wouldn't you tell one of your regular customers " I'm sorry we ran out of corn bread can I offer a side order instead or something else" . I think that's the right thing to do out of courtesy, no?
I called them the guy (manager) that was on the phone said that they ran out of corn bread sticks and told me next time you stop by just remind me I will give them to you.
Did I stop by for order of whole chicken?
Yes I did.
Did I remind him?
Yes I did.
What he answer?
"Oh the reason you didn't get corn bread with your whole chicken is because we no longer give them to customers"…
LIAR!!!!
HOW DO i KNOW THAT HE IS A LIAR?
Two days ago a friend of mine ordered from them and corn bread was in the order for whole chicken!
I told him that day I was there and saw how they supplied corn bread to their customer before me but didn't place any in my order.
Bottom line I don't like LIARS!
I ALSO DON'T LIKE PEOPLE THAT DON'T RUN HONEST BUSINESS Sooooo MISTER CHICKEN TO GO I'm spreading the word! You have poor customer service even though your food is good! Oh I am not coming back & I have told everyone how you handled my order! People were taken back!
Here here…to New Year with one customer less or even more!
NOTE: IF YOU ORDER FROM THEM MAKE SURE YOU GET THE RIGHT ORDER OR YOUR ORDER IS COMPLETE!
This place is great, and open late! It's a blessing and a curse, for me, since there have been plenty of times where I pass by, smell the delicious chicken, and walk right in to pic up food, despite knowing that I have food waiting at home that I should really be eating haha. It's a small takeout place on the corner of Roosevelt and 54st. The chicken strips and the rotisserie chicken are addicting. I used to just get the chicken strips ( honey mustard a must). Then one day they ran out (which happens a lot. Its good stuff I tell ya!) So I got the rotisserie instead. I did not regret that decision. It was really flavorful, and juicy. I even had leftovers for the next day. The chicken is antibiotic free! Which is another reason I love this place. The only gripe is that it's always so hot there! I don't understand how none of them pass out in there. The food is fresh, delicious, and depending on what you're getting, pretty darn healthy. I also love the Kale, potato salad, and Mac and cheese! Give it a try, you'll enjoy it!
really great chicken but the sides are totally meh.
Got the mac and cheese and kale – both really bad.
Highly recommend the boneless chicken strips, they are hugeeegah, but they kinda skimp on sauce for delivery
The cornbread was also top quality.
but watch out of ordering online, they randomly add a $10 DELIVERY FEE
Note: This place is NOT where the current pin location on Yelp indicates it is. A short walk from the Woodside 7 station after work turned into a much longer, unwanted trek through the humidity and upward incline of Queens, but in the end, Mister Chicken was quite worth the hassle.
I knew coming in that I wanted some chicken tenders, which is weird because how often do you actually pick out a place for chicken tenders? They're usually fine and all, but 90-something percent of the time they're exactly what you picture and expect. Just fine. Mister Chicken, on the other hand, is quite more than fine. It's real chicken over here, real chicken.
I ended up with five gigantic pieces of lightly breaded chicken with honey mustard on the side for $9. Considering the going rate for better-than-fast-food-quality fried chicken, that's not bad. The chicken itself is super moist, and most importantly, held its crispiness through the hellish walk back to my home. I was worried that it wouldn't travel well, but came away very impressed. You definitely need some kind of sauce because the chicken's not very strongly seasoned, but that's the whole point of tenders, right?
I will definitely be back because chicken. The rotisserie ones looked good inside, and they were freshly frying chickens to order as I was there. It may be an annoying walk uphill for me, but that's a price I'm willing to pay to revisit Mister Chicken.
Wow I'm very impressed. I ordered here for delivery last week and it was great. I had low expectations but when the food arrived it was amazing. I got chicken fingers deliciously seasoned and tender. I had fried chicken as well it was still crispy when I ate it which is hard to find when you order for delivery. The Mac and cheese and roasted beets again very impressed and I'm rarely impressed with restaurant Mac and cheese. I will order again! Love it!
It's not hipster fried chicken.
The bird won't come cradled in artisanal butcher paper. It isn't served "large format," with a waiting list and an acceptance speech. There is no twee name (unless you count "Mister Chicken" itself, which is so doofy that it COULD be ironic).
Supposedly organic chickens are used, but they don't engage in enough public bragging for me to believe it. Almighty kale makes an appearance on the menu, sauteed with garlic, but just tastes boiled and dull.
(Overall, the sides are mediocre: mac & cheese is chalky, roast potatoes are standard. Your chicken also comes with a rectangular block or two of flavorless fried cornbread.)
Still, the fried chicken is clearly a step above your typical fried-chicken-and-pizza joint's – juicy if not a little plain, and totally unlike the over-battered, dry/gloppy chicken you'd expect from KFC or any neighborhood fried bird shack. The breading is crisp and even a trip on a delivery bike doesn't make it soggy. Their chicken tenders are good too, a far cry from the spongy, flash-frozen matter supplemented with textured wheat protein that we're used to.
For the same reasons, Mister Chicken is not "soul food": Take it as you will, but nothing is very salty or greasy, which is kind of a magical feat. For fried chicken that's a little less fatal, I'm happy that Mister Chicken provides.
