Love the spicy deluxe chicken sandwich! New Chick-fil-A locations have been popping up throughout NJ and some of the drive-through lines are out the parking lot and onto the highway... cannot sit in those lines in the summer heat so was happy to have found this location in the Paramus Park Mall! It is located on the second floor in the food court and it is BUSY but I imagine it is still faster than the stand alone locations! Also, I get to wait in the luxury of air conditioning. I came on a weekday workday... it was around 12:30-1 and the line was about 20 people long and there were about 20 people waiting to the side for their food. The line moved pretty quickly and it probably took about 20 minutes from the time I got in line to the time I received my food. Wouldn't consider it "fast food" but it was quick and efficient enough and SO WORTH IT. I brought my sandwiches back to work to eat and had to save half of one for dinner... the chicken maintained its crispiness and the bread was still fresh even 6 hours later. read more

Overall 4 stars Food 5 stars Service 5 Stars Value 4 stars Atmosphere: n/a (mall location) will I be back: absolutely! Food: I love chick fil a. Since we don't have one on Long island, I always go out of my way a bit to stop in here when I drive down I80. Food is excellent. Service: Service is great. Both times I've been recently they've had new menu items and they give pretty good recommendations on them. Value: It's a fast food place. Atmosphere: It's in a mall. will I be back? Absolutely. Good thing I don't life close by, or I'd be there weekly. read more

Fried chicken sandwich - this is seriously the best fried chicken sandwich from a fast food restaurant. I had the spicy fried chicken deluxe sandwich - I love the little kick of spice and the pepper jack cheese. The other great thing is the food is really authentic. Normally fast food tastes great but processed but here you actually see chucks of chicken and the waffle fries tasted like potatoes. Love the chik fil a sauce because it's so light and vinegary. Definitely drop by again when I am in the neighborhood. read more

I love me some Chick-fil-A! They make a dam good fried chicken sandwich that I crave on the regular. I'm really happy that this location is in the Paramus Park Mall because it is super convenient for me to get in and out. The staff is always super friendly and never afraid to give you a little extra dipping sauce. My only quam with Chick-fil-A is that all locations are closed on Sunday. read more

I am not very fond of birds dating back to an experience I had as a young man when I witnessed a dove land on the curly mushroom cut of my friend Ricky. They say the evolution of the birds dates back to dinosaurs and I am a strong believer in neurogenesis and at a certain point of poultry consumption the ancient reptilian brain with kick in and we will all be a bunch of dinosaur thinking do-do's. But lord the taste and texture of that chick-Fil-a sandwich is the one evolutionary breach that may flip the script on all the egg head scientists and bring us into a new era of thought and technology.! Great Job team read more

Totally cheated on our local teteboro Chick-fil-A big mistake! We tried the new ownership in paramus this place is a big mess and the staff are confused and lost! The food quality is not good at all. Don't bother coming here go to tereboro. We only came here because it was packed which we normally don't do but it's Monday and it's very hot out. But honestly I'm giving everyone a tip go to tereboro not just for their extremely and friendly staff. The best part is they come to the table and they care. Don't waste your time or money here going to corporate for lack of food quality and customer service. read more

Chick-fil-A - Fast Food Near Me - Paramus, New Jersey

I turned 30 this year. Thanks to my job in marketing consulting, I spent most of my 30th birthday in New Jersey, at a client site. This is not how I pictured my life at 30. What am I babbling about? I had lunch on my 30th birthday here at a Chick-Fil-A, alone at a mall in New Jersey. Two spicy chicken sandwiches, one regular chicken sandwich, waffle fries, and a large Coke. I ate my brains out. But you know what? It's been a good 30 years. I'm happy with where I am, with who I am. And it's only getting better. I posted my meal on facebook and twitter, and was overwhelmed by the birthday wishes that were already up, and the envious comments from friends who also wished they were having Chick-Fil-A. If we're going to be honest, this was probably one of the best birthday lunches I've ever had. read more

This used the be the only tolerable location of this chain. While the chick fil a locations in manhattan and at Garden State Plaza offered mediocre renditions of the food with subpar service, this location used to keep it together. Well, not so much anymore. Tonight, I placed my mobile app order as I walked into the mall, literally a min from the counter for pick up. I waited for 15 min before flagging someone down and asking if mobile order was working; I was seeing people placing counter orders getting their food within 3 min. Well, it turns out that my bag had been sitting in a puddle of lemonade for 15 min and no one ever called my name. My paper bag was dripping wet, almost ripping, and the sandwich at the bottom was in a soggy wet box. I pointed out that my sandwich was in a soggy box, the manager scrolls thru the orders, comes over and tells me "it's wet because it's been ready for 15 min." (1) it has been 15 min because you never called my name (2) my food is now cold because you never called me name (3) sitting around for 15 min does not make food wet. Leaving it in a puddle of lemonade for 15 min makes it wet. They're clearly getting their managers from the other mall. What a jerk. Goodbye chick fil a. This really was the last straw. read more

Never have I EVER been so excited to be going to a MALL....a mall in NJ nonetheless Sprinted out of the car, through the parking lot, to the mall map and up the stairs to the food court. 2 spicy chicken sandwiches 1 8-count nugget and large fry pls when your chick-fil-a trips are few and far between you gotta go all out. i wish i could give this place 10 stars for being the closest chick-fil-a to the city (****cheap impostor in NYU dining hall does not count) read more

I lived down south for quite a while. Became accustomed to having Chick-Fil-a on a regular basis. Now its a little more difficult to have it unless I want to drive 10 miles out of the city for it. I know they have one at NYU, but its not fresh, it sits under a heat lamp all day. This location has it all, except breakfast. Ahh Why is there no stand-alone location?! I love my spicy chicken sandwich deluxe meal with waffle fries and a sweet tea please! read more

Nothing beats getting your hand wet as you reach into a foil bag for a simple and delicious treat. Sure the steam is a good quality indicator, the smell even more incredible, but the taste is to die for. Very simple in construction, bun, chicken, two pickles. That's all it needs!! Sure they have other menu items, but why are you trying them when Chick-Fil-A is known for their sandwiches!! Their waffles fries are delicious and I have tried their nuggets which are also pretty incredible. I sometimes like a little mayo on my chicken sandwiches, but here I take the purist route and I suggest you do the same! Busy during lunch? Sure! Worth it? Absolutely! Don't go anywhere else for your chicken sandwiches!! read more

If you're tired of burgers and pizza then you should definitely check this place out! I have been frequenting this crappy mall since I worked there when I was 18, I assure you it's not for it's awesome stores and commerce but for the rare breed of fast food in this mall, chic fil a. It's been a staple in this food court at least since I worked there and that was almost 16 years ago (now I'm really showing my age). The chicken sandwiches are awesome, signature waffle fries and slammin hand spun shakes (try the cookies and cream). There is some other menu items like sandwiches and their version of chicken nuggets which I've never tried. All in all, it's fast food but exceptional fast food IMO and I can't believe that this Christian predominantly down south chain hasn't branched out more up here after all these years, from what I understand it's very difficult to get a restaurant from their chain. read more

Please do not crucify me about this post. Despite my personal feelings toward the Franchise I decided to see what the big fuss over Chick-fil-a is all about. Honestly, it's a good sandwich. I split both the original deluxe and the grilled chicken sandwich. Both were tasty and made fresh. Will I wait on line for more than 3 minutes..... No.... but at least I tried it. Yay for trying new things. By the way, the servers were super nice and helpful. read more

First off I think Chick-fil-a's homophobia displayed by its CEO is downright disgraceful. That aside, I love there chicken! I usually go for a fried chicken sandwich with those amazing waffle fries! Great shakes, and stripes and nuggets. Its all good eats here! I wish they had more stand alone locations in the area. I hate that I have to go this mall noisy mall when I'm craving there chicken and fries. read more

Yummy! The hands-down best Chicken Sandwich anywhere. The best milk shakes too . . . because they mix actual ice cream with milk. Imagine that. And the waffle fries are a real treat. read more

I love their food. The servers are nice. Grilled chicken is always juicy and their lemonade is spot on! I haven't tried their salads.. But their fries are magnificent!! I love waffle fries! And I love the fact it is in the mall that is only 8 minutes away! This is my go to spot when I don't want to cook dinner!! Haha read more

We stopped in a couple of weeks ago for an early lunch. I've been to other chick-fil- a, and I've never been disappointed. This one was awful, my normal order is the spicy chicken sandwich, my sandwich was on the most stale buns I have ever had, the bread crumbled in my hand. The chicken was cold, i bit into a piece of cartilage, it was awful. What a bad experience. read more

We have none in Upstate NY so why do we see so many national ad's with cows promoting chicken? Anyway, the sandwiches are great, so it's good not having one nearby. I would be there too frequently. The mall food court was busy, with the most customers lined up at Chic-fil-A, so my appreciation is not alone! read more

Yeah it's fast food and yeah it's probably not healthy but who doesn't love Chick-fil-a? I hadn't had Chick-Fil-a since we were in CA back in March. I was bitching and complaining the other week about how there aren't any in our area (outside of NYC) A co-worker made me aware of this location in the food court of the Paramus Park Mall. DD and I swung by here on our way home today, she had the 4 piece nugget kids meal and I had the Chick-Fil-a sandwich minus pickles. It's amazing how it actually looks and tastes like real chicken!! Especially when you compare it to other fast food joints. I would drive the 45 minutes or so it takes me to get here just to eat this for lunch. I even picked up a sandwhich for the DW, although it's not as good when it's not fresh. She enjoyed it none the less! read more

This Chick Fil A is the busiest fast food place in the Paramus Park Mall. The line goes fast. However; the young employees that give you your food DO NOT WEAR HAIR PROTECTION. They run back and forth bumping into one another grabbing food and their hair is swinging near the open food bags. One kid kept touching his hair and fixing his hair then grabbing food and then delivering the contaminated bag. They must wear head bands cause it's gross!!! BARF!!! Totally unsanitary when your bag has been delivered with hair DNA, grease, gel, you name it!!!! read more

People rave about this place, but I wasn't too impressed. Ordered a kids meal- the kids chicken nuggets and fries. Each chicken nugget was the size of a quarter. I swear my mouth dropped when I opened the box. The portion size sucked. Yeah, they're for kids, but come on they looked so stingy and tiny. Felt completely ripped off spending this money and getting nothing in return. read more

Chick-fil-a, how i love thee. It's hard to come by one of these establishments. I have been to the one in the Monmouth mall, and this one in the paramus park mall, and both are just food court locations, so for what it is this place is quite alright. The food is always pretty decent, went here about 2 weeks ago with my boyfriend, who happens to be a big chick-fil-a fan, and we were both pleased with our order. the sandwiches were fresh, the fries pretty darn good. Lemonade is delicious. the 2 downfalls: 1) food court location 2) no tray? we had a difficult time eating our food because to take our sandwiches out of the bag we had to take the fries out, which were thrown in on top of the sandwiches. we had no where to put the food down beside the table itself. as we took out the fries, they were falling out of the container onto the table top, which is pretty unsanitary. We tried to find a tray or something to rest the food on, but the search gave us nothing, even after asking the people at the chick-fil-a for something to place the food on, they shrugged. we had to just open up napkins on the table. I was left wondering how others enjoy their food. Anyway still awesome, still delicious, hey, it's chick-fil-a! will def eat again read more

Great place. 1) The chicken burgers and waffle fries was awesome. 2) The service was quick and helpful. 3) For fast food, this place is excellent. 4) Good selection of sauces. read more

Took my kids for lunch and ordered mac and cheese. After waiting 10 minutes they call our name and say they ran out and we would have to wait another 25minutes for it to be made. This has happened 2 weeks in a row and it is ridiculous. Common sense would be to make twice as much each time or keep track when almost running out. I will start going to a different location to hopefully be able to get mac and cheese. read more

Hmmm...what is there to tell you about Chick-fil-A that you don't already know? 1. If you haven't tried the Diet Lemonade, DO NOT FEAR. It is not gross. It doesn't taste like Crystal Light. In fact, I watch them fill my cup, because it tastes so good I always think it's the regular lemonade. 2. These people are seriously nice. I have been there several times 5-10 minutes before closing, and they are just as cheerful as if I were the first customer of the day. I really appreciate not being given dirty looks when I order just before they are about to close up. If Chick-fil-A is not your go-to food court stop at Paramus Park, it should be! I wish they had them more places in North Jersey. read more

Favorite chicken sandwich. Ever. The ingredients are so fresh, it's insane! The crispness of the lettuce is noted every time! The nuggets are great, size appropriate for the little people (my toddler lol). And waffle fries are little golden perfections. I appreciate that the fries are closer to yellow instead of browning. They're super crispy and fried in clean oil. The more brown the fries, the more old, burnt bits are in the oil they fry in. Also thoroughly enjoy their lemonade and shakes! read more

It is so great to have a Chick-fil-A so close! Everyone that works there is very nice, and has always gotten the order exactly right. The chicken here is far much better than any other fast food places. Their chicken sandwiches have a great taste, and taste fresh. Check our their lemonade too! Its delish! read more

Well this spot has gone down the drain. I gave my input on a survey but the restaurant closed and I could not redeem my payment of a free sandwich. The deal expired. I called the restaurant to ask if I come all the way down there could I still get what I earned. I was told yes. I get down there in the afternoon on 7/23 with all documentation and e-mails and the manager on duty would not compensate me for my input with the free sandwich. So now, Chik Fil A has my input and paid nothing for it and I wasted time and money on gas to get all the way back down there just to be shut down. read more

The food here is amazing and so is their customer service! The guy behind the register was very friendly and when my boyfriend went back up to where the pick-up section was in order to ask for one of every sauce (since this was our first time here,) the woman complied. This wouldn't happen at McDonald's, I'll tell you that much. So friendly! Will look into stopping by their NY locations as well since I finally see what all the hype is about read more

I give this place 5 stars The staff are extremely pleasant always smiling and love there job the manager Eliana is one of a kind super nice there was a long line and my chicken tenders were taking awhile to cook she apologizes well in advance that I had to wait 5 minutes and gave me a free meal comp for next time . My meal came out very hot and fresh . 100 percent satisfaction read more

Again after that weird review there food is so good Ibdont now why everyone likes the spicy chicken but I like the deleux spicy it has a good favor to it I LOVE it read more

They have some good grilled nuggets, but they just cheated me out my 12 piece, only were 8 in there...

Sooo duh it's Chick-fil-a it's instantly 5 stars... Have you ever been to one? I mean the chicken is insanely good, like addicting, like crack.. Seriously though.. So you have a pretty basic menu, nuggets, chicken sandwiches, waffle fries, coleslaw, salads, chicken tenders... Not much more then that, but that's the glory of it, it doesn't need more then that! The chicken alone keeps me coming back, no need to add or change up the menu... And unfortunately for me, I don't get here too often. Very glad that they are opening up one in my hood at the garden state plaza pretty soon!! All in all this place have been pretty consistent with the quality of their food, so I have been co.ing here for as long as I can remember... read more

After coming back from the pumpkin farm upstate, hubby suggested we drive through NJ and Google the closest chick fil a .....we didn't realize the location was inside the NJ mall. I've had chick fil a before when I was in Dallas and Southern NJ, this is my 3rd time eating there food. Hubby and I ordered the spicy chicken deluxe with a side of waffle fries....only one word can describe this meal which is delicious! The chicken was moist, lightly breaded, and not too spicy. I'm so happy they opened up another establishment in NYC, so now I don't have to cross the bridge when I am feenin for a chicken sandwich! read more

I love this location! They are so kind, always smiling behind the cash wrap. I order delivery to my location and they are so timely!!!!! I have no complaints just compliments to give out. Thank you! read more

The best chicken breast sandwich. Yes, a real, intact chicken breast. I come to Paramus Park specifically for these. Everytime I come there for anything else I try to make it to Chick fil A. Simplicity at it's finest! You have a Fried chicken breast, a pickle, and a bun. Have been coming here forever, since I was in High School. Still the exact same sandwich, always awesome. As an added bonus they have real Lemonade. I could take or leave the fries, usually opting for two sandwiches and a lemonade myself. Also if you are a nugget person, these are not to be missed, actual breast meat diced. read more

Ok I know it's a chain but let's face it they make the most flavorful chicken nuggets anywhere. They offer really great salads that are made fresh every morning. If you're in a rush, at the mall, want to eat quickly, then stop here! read more

I love chick fil a and we don't have one where I live in buffalo so every time I have an opportunity to go I usually do! That being said the food was great as always but the customer service was sub par. I understand it's busy but I felt really rushed through my order and that asking any questions about the menu was bothersome to the workers. The customer service at other chick fil a locations is great, but not at this one. read more

The customer service at this location is completely unacceptable. The staff was rude, especially the manager. We waited on a long line to order and had to wait over 30 minutes for our food. There were barely any fries and the nuggets were cold. Not impressed. read more

"Love this place. The sandwich is very moist and delicious and who doesn't like waffle fries? And oh my goodness the coleslaw is so good. I had a chicken salad sandwich that was very tasty too. Good fast food." read more
