After craving it the last few years, I had to stop in and finally try the Honey Pepper Pimento Chicken sandwich and yes, it was delicious (but not worth $10). Is it me or has their prices went up and the sizes shrunk? I have not ate here in a while and was not only surprised by the price of the sandwich alone but by how small their chicken sandwich has got. Anyways, I came to also review the team at this location (all so super friendly and quick) and this restaurant ( very VERY clean!)!! read more

I'm going to review this fast food restaurant with an okay. The food is good and orders online are ready. I got the fried chicken without pickles. But it came as a surprise with 2 sour pickles making my friend soggy and nasty. The sandwich was not greasy but not hot either. It was room temperature as if made and laying around the lamp for a while. The soda is okay you can ask for less ice. Didn't enjoy the lukewarm fries at all. Tasteless potatoes shaped like waffles. Restaurant is clean and they give lots of flavored sauces. Order ahead but hope it's hot! I doubt I return to eat in. read more

This review is really for Amina over at Chick-fil-A because baby... she deserves her flowers. Now, if you know me, you know I frequent Chick-fil-A. That's my Georgia side, okay? I may be a born-and-raised New Yorker, but living in Georgia? That'll turn you into a Chick-fil-A girl real quick. So while I've been around this neighborhood forever, I had never really gone into this location on 86th until January when I was in full birthday mode for my son. And listen... planning a kid's birthday? Stressful. You're running around, trying to figure everything out, making sure the kids are fed, happy, entertained -- all of that. So I went in to ask about catering nuggets and fries, just trying to see what my options were. That's when I met Amina. From the moment she spoke to me, her energy was just... calm, warm, genuine. She didn't just answer my questions -- she walked me through everything. Gave suggestions, broke down a better way to do my order, made sure I understood everything. And it wasn't rushed or forced. It felt like she actually cared. And I'm not gonna lie, her spirit? It matched mine. In the middle of all that chaos, she gave me a moment of peace. And that matters. Even the next day when I went to pick everything up -- I was running a little late, because of course I was -- the staff was amazing. No attitude, no stress. They reassured me like, "Don't worry, we're gonna make it fresh for you," and they did just that. Everything was hot, fresh, and ready to go. And every time I've gone back since? Same experience. The place is always clean (which y'all already know is BIG for me), the staff is friendly from top to bottom, and Amina is consistently that same sweet, genuine person. I honestly be happy when I see her because I already know I'm about to have a good interaction. She gives customer service the way it's supposed to be given. Not forced. Not robotic. Real. And I watched her with other customers too -- same kindness, same patience, same warmth. Even with her team, you can tell there's respect there. That's leadership energy, whether the title is there yet or not. So yeah, this is me giving Amina her well-deserved flowers. Y'all got a good one, for real. Keep her, treat her right, because she is the kind of person that keeps people coming back. read more

This location is an express counter/ mostly for Uber Eats and people who work in the surrounding offices. There's no tables but the lobby is always squeaky clean, I always get the best service here and on multiple occasions the manager is handing out samples of their chocolate chip cookies :) Food comes out Faster then fast here read more

Solid chick fila experience. Workers were friendly and efficient in placing my order while I waited on the line. This location is always so busy with take out /uber eats drivers but everyone is polite and patient. I only ordered a peach shake but got it in less than 5 min. It's my first time getting the peach shake and I see why it's so popular. The bits of peach in the shake really give it a nice flavor pop. I just wish the straw was bigger like a boba one so I can have an easier drinking experience. read more

This Chick Fil A is awful! They don't award points. I had to email Chick Fil A customer service about it and they had to manually credit me points. read more

Very nice if you want a quick bite to eat without spending too much money and want a pleasant day out with friends

I just came to this location for the first time. They take your order quickly as you are in line and pay. The food is ready very quickly. All the workers are very polite and nice. I took my food upstairs to eat via the elevator. They have steps as well. They had all this seating upstairs. The staff member Brian changed out my ice tea from sweet tea to unsweetened tea within a few minutes. They had workers who cleaned the tables and swept the floors when guests left. It was a very clean eating area. Felt comfortable eating there and reading on my phone. I would come back to this location. read more

The picture will tell you exactly why I'm upset. Why in the world would you think it's ok to send me a salad with some awful spoiled wilted lettuce. Like come on....this was my dinner for the night and now it's late and I don't have that many healthy options near me this late. read more

I don't like the Chick-fil-a brand, but this location (and the mobile one on 79th) are the most reliable work from home breakfast delivery. For days where I can't afford to get more stressed out before I log in, at least I can count on correct and hot orders delivered 100% of the time. I've been ordering for a couple years, so embarrassingly this is based on at least 100 orders. The owner here not only spams my app with free food coupons, but he's managed to hold on to the same half dozen delivery guys - who remember the quirks of getting in my building. As far as the physical location, I finally went the other day and found the upstairs area to have such an interesting layout that even had some armchairs to relax in. It's still fast food - so not spotless - but perfectly fine for kids etc. read more

Hit or miss but the employees here do act like Tesla robots they are very programmed and courteous . The food fell off though, shame on you chic fil a read more

Had some time to kill after spending a few hours at the bronx zoo. I decided to stop in here for an early dinner. Ordered the kids nuggets, fries, half iced tea half lemonade and ice cream. The highlight was surprisingly the Arnold Palmer, which has always been, in my past experience at chick-Fil-a, mediocre. Ordered online for dine in- they bring it right to your table which is awesome. However, upon arrival my nuggets and fries were lukewarm and slightly over salted. Understandably, this place is mad packed all the time so food isn't always going to be prime. Just sad to dine in and get lukewarm food. The ice cream was very good and not too sweet. The staff are very friendly and helpful here. Minus one star for the lukewarm food but overall, a really good option for a quick snack and a nice bathroom. read more

Mac and cheese was warm, creamy and tasty. Bits of cheese with overcooked texture with the gooey cheese was delicious. Worth the 6$ and change. Waffle fries were what you'd expect. Tasty. Basic. Perfect salt on this batch. Then I got the chicken deluxe sandwich. Thin slice of tomato, doesn't taste the freshest but doesn't taste old. Not the BIGGEST fan of tomato, so I'm cool with it being thin. 2 paper thin pieces of lettuce; tasted alright. Slice of cheese, and one pickle (more pickles would have been cool) Nice slightly spicy, crispy chicken. Pretty good. Oks sweet tea, no complaints. Oh, one complaint. I wish they sent chic F la sauce! I didn't have an option to ask for it. The Sandwich and fries are very dry without sauce! read more

The dine in location is open and you can actually find a seat, order with a staff, and the food will come directly to you sealed tight. The sandwich is consistently delicious and one of the best sweet tea in town. I am so happy Chic-fil-A began to open up within the NYC region. read more

Pretty nice servers, and tasty food. It doesn't make you feel tired after eating it. I've only tried this location twice and the food was okay. Crispy chicken sandwich was good, and also the crispy chicken nuggets. They have waffle fries, were tasty--but were even better when you put one of their special sauces on it. The sweet tea was really good! Reminds me of southern sweet tea. read more

Fast food chicken sandwich challenge. This was the third of a few fast food chicken sandwich reviews, and my first time at a Chic fil a. Their chicken and coating were slightly thicker and slightly better than Wendy's in my opinion, but not with all the hype I've heard. I think Popeyes homestyle chicken hands down is the best of the three. The chicken tenders were also good, but not great. My son enjoys them. The organization and storefront at this location are impressive. Orders are taken by a greeter, and they have a system of order taking and pick ups. Very efficient and organized. There is also plenty of seating upstairs, including a couple of big lounge chairs which I've never seen at a fast food restaurant. Everything is clean and sanitary; they even have a no touch garbage can that opens with a sensor. read more

I'm upping the stars to FIVE. Great biscuits. Fixed as you request. I was served by Vernon. He was a great cashier and a joy to talk to briefly. My order came out quickly. I had a seat upstairs and listened to relaxing music while I ate. I could eat their biscuits every day. The texture is fresh and buttery with enough cheese and bacon to satisfy me. Next time I'll try sausage. I could have eaten two. I'm going to enjoy having Chick fil A close to home. I spotted an electric plug near my seat. Looks like I'll be coming after my morning walks. Previous version: Clean and new location. I was so glad to see upstairs seating. Lots of room for lines while waiting to order. Space to wait for pick up. Lots of Managers on hand today for the Grand Opening, I met a few. Employees provided fast friendly service. I'm hoping it remains this way. There's the usual breakfast options for reasonable prices. I took a bunch of menus. My friends in the hood will be so excited. We can meet for lunch! If you're a fan of Chick fil A and live or work in the hood, check it out. Especially while it's clean and new. read more

I don't eat meat or chicken but I had to swing by this new location which opened up on the Upper East Side to see what all the hub bub was about. They were open during the pandemic shutdown for pickup. Their app worked great and my order was waiting for me. Had the large peppermint chip milkshake which was pretty decent, but I felt like I had a diabetes attack after drinking it. I also ordered a side of waffle fries which I wasn't impressed with. The mac and cheese wasn't bad but with it's crispy top was passable for a fast food joint. Honestly, I don't get what the allure is with this place. It's really just high calorie, high fat fast food like all the rest. read more

You can never go wrong with Chil- fil-A, whenever in the City always I always find a location for their chicken strips and chil-fil-a sauce. Sooo good, delicious, fresh and tasty. Due the pandemic the workers are taking orders outside of the store and you then go inside to pay. The lines are ridiculously long, but it's worth the wait. read more

I like this chick fil a spot! It is always crowded and has many double parked cars out front collecting delivery orders, but besides that the customer experience inside is very good! A young man with an iPad walked up and down the line taking customers orders, so that the time you get to the cashier, all you need to do is pay and wait a bit longer for your order. This made the experience way more swift and enjoyable, and felt like i was being cared for even in a fast food restaurant. The sandwich and fries were excellent, and I was very pleased overall. Would come here again! read more

Management does a pretty decent job running this location as far as I can see. Kids do sneak onto the second floor to I guess lounge around, although it is closed due to COVID. The employees don't seem to care or don't notice. I placed my order in my mobile app and you can scan yourself to check in at the front of the door outside to keep the social distancing. My order is accurate and the food tastes great. The store manager personally was handing out the food and made sure it was my order. That's a plus in my books. read more

The ambiance is wonderful because there is seating up stairs with large glass windows that overlook the street. Service is top notch. You go up via stairs or elevators where there are one to two crew members waiting to take your order. The seating area even has leather accent chairs. Food comes out quickly to your table. It isn't too easy to find comfortable, spacious, and open seating like this in NYC. read more

gave my boyfriend food poisoning immediately after drinking their lemonade and having their fries. horrible food.

This location has an awesome staff! There is a manager here that continues to go above and beyond every time, he is so welcoming and i often catch him communicating with customers in the pick up area. I appreciate their quickness and accuracy with each order. There hasn't been a time where I felt badly about the food I received from this location. I continue to go back to this particular location any time that I am in Manhattan, their Honey Chicken Pimento Sandwich was an amazing addition to their menu and I'm hoping they bring it back soon! read more

The chick fil a nuggets here was very underwhelming. It was not crispy and honestly these nuggets were one of the worse I had. Not even the sauce could save it. read more

Stopped in for lunch today. The staff is super friendly and even though the line is long it moves extremely fast. We sat upstairs and ate. A lot of teenagers from high school so it can get loud but that's anywhere in the city when school lets out. Keep up the great work at this location you can tell that you have a strong team of staff that work well together!! Also to the young man working upstairs cleaning I just want to highlight his professionalism and kindness. He came over and asked if we were good! Most of the time we overlook kindness but he actually motivated me to leave a review. I love to see it. read more

I knew nothing about this location until I stayed with someone who lives right near here and suggested I redeem a free sandwich at that location. It gets crowded sometimes but I like that they attach your straw to your drink when you pick up an order. Picking up an order or getting one is definitely consistent with my experience with other Chick-fil-A locations in NYC and elsewhere. Customer service is definitely on point here as it is at other locations. I went here more than once when I stayed here and would likely come back if I were in the area. read more

I'm a huge, huge fan of Chick-fil-A and I'm stoked that they've finally moved their way into our neighborhood versus having to head to midtown. Of course, the food is incredible and you're not going to find a fast food option that's better, more consistent than, or quick than CFA! This new space is very nice and comfortable, with seating up to 60 people. That also includes a couple of large tables for groups up to 10 people each. read more

I lived in the South for 4 years, so I was ecstatic that chick fila was coming to UES. I am a little disappointed, the staff did not greet me. The cashier had a flat affect. I am even more disappointed in the chicken. I got chicken fingers and when I got them in the south they were beautiful golden fried whole pieces of chicken. The ones I got here were mangled and looked very unappetizing. They had random strings of chicken protruding. See my picture for more details. At $1.50 per piece of chicken, I expect more. read more

I love the staff, everyone is incredibly friendly here and wait times are not bad if you use the mobile order option. I even became a chick fil a 1 signature member for many years. But I will NEVER eat chick fil a again. My chicken has been nasty too many times. Today my nuggets looked like this and I didn't notice until I was almost done.

Oh man if you're able to get breakfast from these guys it's definitely worth it. Now we all know they just do chicken but the sausage they have for the egg biscuit is flavorful with a touch of spice. It's really good and better than the McDonald's sausage patty. Of course the chicken biscuit was on point all the way. Very good juicy as always. The biscuit again better than McDonald's was soft and buttered well. Definitely if you're able to get the breakfast don't hesitate go for it you will not be sorry. read more

I ordered lunch here and they forgot to put the sauce in the bag. I went back to the front and despite giving them my order info they kept asking me questions and refused to give me sauce. Very confused since the sauce comes free with the meal and I gave them my order info and everything. There was also a customer who was extremely rude to me trying to accuse me of cutting her in line even though she was waiting for a mobile order??? Very weird. Never coming back to this location. read more

Another great experience Norlan was fast and efficient and always friendly. I really appreciate the atmosphere. Especially since my job is so stressful. read more

I love this addition to the UES. Being raised in the south, this was a staple and I was always craving fried chicken... this makes me happy. I love their lemonade, selection of shakes are great and chicken tenders or sandwiches depending on the mood. The set up is wonky when you drop in, but if you get the app it will save you time and patience. Lately, I have it delivered to avoid the weirdness of standing among all the delivery people. read more

Haven't been here for a while but dropped in on the way home from a soccer game with my 2 boys as a treat for them. We got 2 meal deals, nuggets and a plain chicken burger, both with fries and both upgraded to a milkshake. Somehow it ended up being $30, I guess they gave us regular portions instead of kids meals, even so still kind of pricy. The kids were happy so I didn't grumble, but I did eat some of their waffle fries, and was disappointed at how soggy they were. Wanted them more crunchy / crispy. The area outside this location is a complete zoo, normally tons of delivery drivers doing pickup and normally also tons of wrappers and Chick-fil-A garbage. It seems recently they have tried to regulate the traffic somewhat but they need to do more. Anyhow have upgraded them to 4 stars as I know my kids like them and it's obviously popular. Hope they fix the issues their place is causing and clean up the garbage. read more
