    Chappy burg and fries
    Jason V.

    Run by the same guy who operates Wang Gang, this somewhat nostalgic restaurant I found to be a great addition to the strip mall. Service was great, as was the food during my two visits there. The burger was one of the best I've had in a long time. Fries too, even though they were breaded. I've heard that they had the best chicken sandwich but I wasn't blown away by it. I splurged and got one of their specialty milkshakes which was a strawberry one with animal sugar cookies in it. Definitely hit the spot! My only complaint is there's not enough seating. But nothing is perfect I guess. I'll be back

    Went to dinner tonight at Chappy's in Edwardsville (next door to Wang Gang) Love the decorations and route 66 feel of the place. The food was 10/10, and service was even better. We were absolutely blown away by our server, Michelle. She's by far one of the best servers I've had while dining out! We had fried mushrooms to start, and even though they aren't hand breaded, they had tons of flavor! Their ranch is also! The hubby ordered the hamborghini, which is a combination of a Philly cheesesteak and a cheeseburger. I had a plain cheeseburger and fried chicken leg (SUPER CRISPY AND JUICY). She also gave us a sample of the frozen custard, which was amazing as well. We can't wait to go back and try a few of the other menu items!!

    Great service and food. Cute place. I had the fried chicken dinner with mashed potatoes. I give a 5 stars for the chicken and the service. The potatoes and toast were barely warm hence the 4 rating. It looks likes the burgers weee a hot item as most of the others tables ordered that. I will be back if in the area.

    Great service! Burgers are really good and the fries are also quite delicious. If you like a great chicken sandwich, this is also your kind of place. Did I mention shakes? Also very good. We've been here four times now and everything is consistent. If you like a good burger or chicken sandwiches... stop by sometime.

    Chappy's is a small, car-themed, and filled restaurant with some pretty alright typical diner-type food. The jalapeño mac n cheese bites were delicious, but the street corn potato bowl was just alright. The sauce was good, but it was mostly potatoes in the end scheme of things. The service was quick and to the point, but there also weren't a whole lot of people dining at the time either. The milkshake was delicious in the end too. I don't know if I'll be making any more special trips here, but I wouldn't say no to trying it out again in the future.

    Chappy's is a unique restaurant in Edwardsville, IL. It has a Route 66/car theme with the decor and diner-style food. The service is very good and the food is very good. My family and I visited Chappy's twice in a three week span and this review will cover both visits. We are a family of four, with two pre-teen boys. Chappy's seems to be known for their fried chicken and it is very good - more to come on that - but their burgers are excellent as are their french fries. Chappy's burgers are diner style and cooked on a griddle. They are very flavorful and some of the best burgers you can get at this type of restaurant and at this price point. My oldest son declared that this was the best burger he's ever gotten at a restaurant. You can add a second patty to a burger for an additional charge and if you're hungry or want more, I would recommend getting the double. It is a good value to add the additional patty. The french fries are fantastic! They have a type of batter on the fries, a coating that is light and very flavorful. They are some of my favorite french fries that you can get out. For locals, these are the same types of french fries you can get at the Burger Bar in Wood River, IL (also a very good place) or Dairy King in Breese and Trenton, IL. They're very, very good and I recommend you get them as a side. Chappy's fried chicken is very good. It has a unique batter that is their speciality and it is not too spicy but has a good flavor. With two young boys, we eat a lot of chicken tenders and a lot of chicken in general and its often something at least one of the boys orders when we go out to eat. We all thought the chicken was excellent and highly recommend it. We debated where it ranks on our chicken tenders scale. The consensus ended up being that it ranked somewhere beneath Moonlight fried chicken, but on par with the chicken tenders from Raising Canes and slightly above the tenders from Geno's 140 Club in Bethalto, IL. Our meals consisted of burgers, chicken tenders, fries, and toasted ravioli. The ravioli was good, but nothing special and isn't really the speciality of Chappy's. Service was quite good. Our first experience visiting was with exceptional service. On our second visit we did not receive drink refills quite as often, but everyone was friendly and helpful. Very good service. Value/Pricing: Chappy's is on the slightly higher end of pricing for a similar type restaurant that serves a variety of burgers, fries, and fried chicken. I think the chicken is at a common price point, but the burgers are a bit higher than some similar places for arguably similar taste. I recommend you check out Chappy's for a unique experience. The burgers, fries, and chicken and excellent and you won't go wrong ordering any of those three items. With good service and reasonable pricing with a unique atmosphere, Chappy's is a place worth visiting.

    Kids chicken tender meal
    Jim S.

    Tonight was our first time at Chappy's after reading some reviews I had high hopes. I ordered the 4 pc chicken with coke slaw (they were out of the fried mushrooms our waitress recommended) and my daughter ordered the Goat Burger. The fried chicken was good, moist, tender, and good flavor but pieces were very small, I've had Cornish hens about as big. My daughter said her burger was pretty good but I thought the beef patty was a little small. My granddaughter had the kids chicken tender meal, it had lots of fries and 2 small chunks of chicken but it was enough for her. I definitely don't recommend sitting anywhere close to the front door, there is a strong wind the cones tunneling in every time the door opens and it blew things around on our table. Overall not bad and I will probably give it another try.

    This new place popped up in yelp! It has fried chicken...I'm really into fried chicken so we came up here the next day. It's a cute little place with lots of vintage decorations with a fun laidback vibe. Lots of car memorabilia and 45 records on the wall! Our server was super friendly! Hubby got the Vienna sausage and loved it. He said his chocolate shake was good too! I got the chicken breast and two wings. Happy to report the chicken is excellent! It's not spicy ands it's tender and juicy. The fries are just okay, not my favorite kind. Really cute place that has fried chicken...that makes me happy! Welcome Chappy's to Edwardsville! I hope you do well. I know I'll be back! I noticed at the table across from us that the children got to pick out a free hot wheels car! I'll have to bring my little guy back here! Such a clever idea!

    I have been here in Edwardsville a week and been wanting some fried chicken other than National chains and directly across from my room is this establishment. They had fried chicken and it was very well seasoned and fried just right, hot and fresh. I can say I was very satisfied.

    Went with the fam for lunch and had the single cheeseburger. Excellent burger! Toppings, bun and beef were all fresh. Service was friendly and kids loved the Hot Wheels. Definitely a burger spot!

    Best fried chicken I've ever had. So crispy tears right off the bone. And the chicken itself so juicy and seasoned. I get the legs and they are by far the best chicken left I've ever had. Don't get me started on the fries. So crispy and also seasoned these fries are better than most of the bar fries that are popular. I've told many people about this place. I will be continuing to come back I was there Friday I'm going back today which is Monday.

    Way too spicy for us. I ordered a plain grilled chicken breast. Probably won't go back.

    Such a great local staple! This place has such a cozy atmosphere it honestly feels like you're…read moredining in someone's home in the best way possible. The food is consistently fantastic, and the cocktails are always perfectly done. We've been back several times now and have never been disappointed. It's the perfect spot for a Friday night dinner, date night, or celebration with friends. And whatever you do, don't skip the French onion soup it's a must-order every time!

    At my most recent visit, I did two things that I have never done at Moussalli's. First, I sat at…read moretable instead of the bar and second thing is that I did not order a steak. It was a special night, a group of foodie friends got together after not seeing each other for a while. It was a group of 11 and the accommodations and service couldn't have been better. Our server was extremely professional and didn't mind that it was 6 different checks. As our server was telling us the Daily Specials and the Catch of the Day, I immediately knew what I wanted. Whenever I hear, Pan Seared Sea Scallops or anything with Scallops, I'm sold. My scallops (4) were huge and the Risotto that they were served on was moist and flavorful. I also learned that they offer half bottles of wine and one of them is my favorite. I love, Quilt Cabernet Sauvignon. I'm probably going to wine hell because I paired it with my seafood instead of a white wine. Also, I want to give a shout out for their, Crab Stuffed Mushrooms. I've been known to stop by and have them and a Martini and call it a meal. When: February 19, 2026 Why: Meeting up with friends
