Impulsively stopped in for lunch, as this restaurant always seems to be busy. I ordered the Number One chicken slider with fries combo. The chicken slider consists of one piece of chicken on a brioche roll with condiments including pickles and coleslaw. The combo comes with a generous portion of fries and sauces. I ordered the Seasonal Lemonade (Watermelon), which was refreshing and not too sweet. Everything was fresh and tasted just fine. However, $18 for lunch and a drink is a bit pricey for the portion size, which is not uncommon these days. Casual ambiance; you can eat in or take out. Service was helpful and friendly. Small parking lot and street parking available.
Not bad at bad place for chicken tenders, but nothing really stands out to be quite honest. Menu is pretty simple. It's tenders, chicken sandwiches and fries. You can adjust the levels of heat as well, and it goes all the way up to bonfire-in-your-mouth. I got the medium and it had zero heat. I'd recommend anything above that if you like a little spice. The sandwiches are actually sliders with the tenders inside and you can get them with fries. If I come here next time, I'd probably just go with the tenders as they give you more meat for your buck. As for the fries, just basic shoestring. Mine were a bit overcooked, yet didn't have much crisp at all. Came with a spicy mayo dip that they put in the sliders as well. Seats are all outdoor, but at least covered. Probably best to just grab and go. Not sure if I'd come back as there are just too many options out there for fried chicken.
First time back here in about a year. Used to come all the time but moved away. I ordered and showed up at minimum 5-ish minutes later. I didn't expect the food to be ready but when I walked up to the counter no one acknowledged me or even noticed me. Only two workers and the guy at the register was on his phone! I waited then finally had to catch his attention. The other guy came from the back and was like "oh we just got it"... no you didn't. I saw the ticket hanging from the machine. Too busy on your phones not actively working. I looked around and the tables were messy, the chairs were sloppy and the trash was over flowing. If you don't have customers, you should be using the down time to make the restaurant clean for the customers. To make matters worse, they had inventory sitting in boxes in the back parking lot. My partner was sitting in the car waiting for me and she saw MICE running around the boxes and one came out the back door! Geez, what happened to this place? The A can't be correct. This is a far cry from the experiences I used to have here. The food tasted great, the patio was clean, and the workers were always so fast and friendly... what happened? I really hope the quality of the food is the same. We'll see... Update: Food was delicious, as always
Chick Next Door is a local Fried Chicken place nestled on Chevy Chase and Glenoaks in Northeastern Glendale. They offer decent light, spicy hot chicken at a reasonable price. Our family got as takeout a slider, three tenders, and fries. The tenders were decent, lightly battered, juicy, and accompanied by a spicy peppery dipping sauce. Aside from being light they were good but nothing unique nor mind blowing. Following was the slider, a slightly larger tender topped with tangy slaw and sauce on a slightly sweet bun. Again great but not mind blowing. The sauce was a little too spicy for my liking, with the pepper overpowering the other flavors. Better to leave the spice on the chicken so your sauce consumption isn't limited by your spice tolerance. Fries were good and well seasoned, but not exceptional, and the Mac and cheese appropriately al dente with a decent sauce while not overly heavy. Service was reasonably fast (wait time 5 minutes). The outside area was relatively clean but spartan, and not especially inviting. Perhaps it was the time of day, but this place is better served for takeout. Prices were reasonable (see photo) but not exceptional. Chick Next Door promises what its name suggests; local, decent fried chicken. Good if you're in the area and want a relatively light, tasty bite, but not worth a detour. Food: 4/5 Ambiance: 3.5/5 Value: 4/5
Stopped by here since I was in the area and needed to grab a lunch. Parking is hit and miss. Depending on time/day, there is a shared parking lot next door. Otherwise there's some street parking. Order from the window and either get to go or there's a small patio area to eat there. I got a combo 1 - slider and fries. Be aware that these are sliders so one may not be filling. Taste wise the slider was okay. Had decent flavor and crunch but not the best I've had. The fries were pretty good. Good crunch and flavor. The sauce they provide went well with the fries. It had a little bit of a spice. Personally I wouldn't make the trek out here just for the chicken slider, but everyone has their personal preference on how a Nashville chicken sandwiches should be.
Was up in Angeles Crest for a photoshoot and decided to stop by Chick Next Door for some food. Ordered the slider / tender combo and Steve's Fries. Ordered through the website while I was on my way here to save some time and my order was ready about a minute after I arrived. Friendly workers offered extra sauce and utensils, cool little dining/waiting area as well. Parking area extremely small be prepared to park on the street or make your own parking space Unfortunately the spice levels were very inconsistent. If the spice levels were better, this spot can definitely be a 5/5 for me. Slider 3/5 Mild Heat level. Tasted naked but the coleslaw was a nice touch, nice and juicy chicken with crunchy breading, would definitely order again Tender 3/5 Medium heat level. Once again tasted naked, no heat whatsoever. Juicy chicken and crunchy breading though, would definitely order again regardless of it not being spicy Fries 4/5 These fries remind me of rally's fries. Absolutely love the fries here, would definitely recommend plain fries over Steve's fries. Steve's Fries 2.5/5 I personally would stick to their tenders or sliders combos and have plain fries over these fries. Maybe it was due to the lack of heat from the chicken but these fries were just okay.
Pretty solid spot. Excellent customer service, good food, cute location. The spice is NOT spicy enough for me so next time I'll do the don't chicken out option EZPZ. I did the combo 4 and the supreme fries, and while everything was good just expect smaller than typical portions. BUT, it is really good. The chicken was fried to a golden crisp, but the tender was a little small. The components of the actual supreme fries are okay on their own but definitely magic when combined. Anyways, this spot is yum!
WHAT A FIND!!! So decided to try Chick Next Door and BAM!!! Was beyond a pleasant surprise! Chicken tender(s), (bet you can't eat just one!) were in the top 5 in the City! They were moist, breaded perfectly, tender and juicy! That's rare with so many spots doing the same, BUT, these were a step beyond! They comped me a slider which was an 7.5, so I was stoocked with the Tenders! Fries and Tea were top also, TOTALLY HOMEMADE sauces and dips too! Priced right and hours perfect for my lifestyle! Got a new Go-To and highly recommend this clean and pleasant establishment.
Quick and to the point. No crazy menus and they have a good heat meter. My son loved the country style tenders.
Came on a Saturday afternoon and there were a few people there. The parking lot is VERY small so we parked on the street. It was a small place with some seating on the side walk and some seating semi outside. We got the Steve's Fries and I would say it was good but not amazing. The sauce was REALLY good, the chicken and fries paired well. The only thing was that the Mac and cheese lacked flavor.

I have since had this restaraunt 8 times. All 8 times the restaraunt has impressed me. The chicken was crispy, Plump, and decently juicy. Chick Next Door is a sort of signature flavor they have that's not present in even the best hot chicken restaraunts. While not my favorite chicken restaraunt, I would say out of all of the chicken restaraunts I've had this place probably ranks #3. I take back my previous review calling the chicken dry and flakey. I'm going to assume that the chef at the time maybe just wasn't that good? Because this place has redeemed itself 8 times over. Highly reccomend. If you want an orgasmic concoction of delicious flavor, I highly reccomend Steve's Frys. They also have the best nuggets I've ever had, hands down. read more

I'm sorry I forgot to take more pictures but honestly I got it delivered the and I'm not gonna lie it was good fr their Mac and cheese is fucken good I'm not even gonna lie to you that's what makes the plate great in my opinion its perfect and the fries are perfect for this plate honestly they arent crinkle cut they seemed home made for me personally almost like McDonald's fries but perfect for this dish they weren't stale at all and the chicken was crispy as hell but my only thing was it needs a little more spice just a tad bit not a lot but just a little and the sauce is what threw me off not in a bad way cuz it was pretty good not your usual sauce for chicken sandwich it has like a taste of chile chipotle to it which makes it unique in my opinion but over it's a pretty good spot read more

Came here after seeing it on IG and the food was great. The sliders are smaller than the ones at Dave's Hot Chicken, but I actually prefer that. You could def get the combo with 2 sliders and enjoy it in one seating, vs @ DHC, I find myself reheating food and these sliders aren't really what you're trying to reheat. The sliders- BOMB! Crispy, well seasoned and doesn't fall apart as you're eating it. The fries- BOMB! The perfect amount of crisp! Mac n Cheese- So so. Wasn't anything to rave about but alright. Watermelon Lemonade- Decent. Not too sweet and you could taste the fresh watermelon in it. The atmosphere- cute. Outdoor seating available under shade, however, I could do without the EDM music...which is why I'm giving 4 stars vs 5. Would have been more enjoyable without the ooontz ooontz ooontz music. I'd come back if I were in the area! read more

Came here for takeout Thursday and liked everything. I had a medium hot tender with some fries. The rest of the fam had sliders. The fries were great and we liked the sauce too. Everyone agreed that if you are a chile head, order one or two spice levels higher than you think you want. Portions okay for the price read more

The chicken was not dry , thank god. The breading was nice and thin. I went twice, got all the spice levels and none were spicy to me. They all tasted mild which Is the reason for 50% of the one star. I'm not crazy on spice at all but trust me , you won't be reaching for the honey. The other 50% is the bun size. It is SUPER tiny! (See picture) I also got the Mac and cheese which I didn't like at all. Nothing was wrong with it I just didn't like it so can't really blame them for that. And I got the dulce de leche churro . If I had eaten it when it was hot I think it would've tasted a lot better but nonetheless it was really good.( didn't take picture) read more

If you are craving hot chicken, check this place out! Easy to order online via multiple platforms or directly through their website. Easy parking and pick up for to-go convenience. Steve's Fries were great! Got the "mini" (1.5 lbs vs the full 3 lbs). How can you not like fried chicken, mac & cheese, and seasoned fries all together? If you are hungry, this will definitely fill you up. I'll have to come back for the chicken sandwich on its own next time! read more
I hate to to this but I have to dock a star for service here. I'll start with the food though: honestly a pretty average hot chicken place. Slider was very small, fries were a bit too crunchy. Chicken was good (a bit dry) but had a nice crust. Crust was an order of magnitude less spicy than anticipated - I ordered medium and it tasted like mild does from most places. Cole slaw and pickle were good, bun had a nice toast, and the chipotle Mayo was a nice addition. It was pretty expensive too - $19 for just the combo. Service was honestly just not great though. I ordered online takeout. Got there and the guy at the counter tried to charge me again. Explained I ordered through Yelp and apparently he figured it out. Got home, found out that although I ordered two sliders one of them was missing. Especially given how expensive these were I was honestly fairly upset. I'll admit I probably should've checked the order for accuracy, but given covid I usually won't open my orders until I get home. Not thrilled that a mistake like this occurs, especially given that it wasn't crowded at all. read more
The best Nashville Hot Chicken I have had! We were looking for a place to eat before my son's baseball game and this place popped up on Yelp with great reviews, so we had to try! So glad we did! It's easy to find this restaurant. You walk up, order your food, the outdoor patio is super clean and perfectly decorated. The food is boxed (in this cute box) and hot and ready to eat! I got the combo with a tender and a slider with fries. The crispness of the chicken was perfect, the mild had a bit of spice, but is was perfect. The pieces of chicken were large, meaty and all white meat. The slider was perfectly layered with a tender, sauce, a pickle and coleslaw. It was so delicious I couldn't stop and take a pic! This place is amazing, you won't be disappointed! read more

(Tookout 11/23/20 MO & 11/24/20 TU both @ 4:00pm): This hot chick recently moved in next door to my barber! In the throes of a COVID-19 pandemic, my barbershop was finally able to open which allowed me to get my overgrown mane sheared when a Chick Next Door at the corner caught my eye. The latest in an ever-growing line of Nashville hot fried chicken joints, I grew up and loved fried chicken from Kentucky Fried Chicken, the bagged deal from Albertsons, and good old-fashioned home-cooked chicken with the splattered oil and sticky mess that needed to be cleaned up afterwards. However, it wasn't until six months later when I finally approached her and introduced myself. Was this love at second sight or a fleeting fancy affair!? PURCHASE 2 Sliders & Fries Combo ($12.99 x2): Of the five hot level options, I chose the middle "hot" which barely warmed me up. Volcanic red-colored thick moist pieces of chicken saddled with coleslaw, pickles, and their house-made chick sauce barely held together by a lightly-toasted brioche bun, these were finger-licking sloppily amazing sliders that left me wanting more even though I was stuffed after I inhaled them both https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=EDVdG3KNbhAR054lvVCTIA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! The abundance of seasoned fries had a blissful crispy outside with a steaming moist inside with leftovers that tasted nearly just as good the next day as a snack https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=qqVramTm5EAh4kuXIglKJQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! This was an impressive meal https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=QI7pnubwFjZ-3sDgku4AAA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Mac 'N Cheese ($4.50): One of my all-time favorite dishes, I ordered this whenever and wherever I saw it on the menu. This was one magical elbow pasta mess of cheesiness, gooeyness, and quite filling as a meal on its own. Simplicity that warmed my heart and permanently left a smile on my face with every spoonful https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=q1VYTdy9WgGcSzs8xtYCbw&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Coleslaw ($3.50): Not a big fan of coleslaw because I've eaten some terrible ones over the years which many seemed to be "soupy" that soaked in a pool of liquid mayonnaise. Thankfully, that wasn't the case here! The finely-shredded cabbage mixed with black pepper, red onion, and an extremely light touch of mayonnaise was a joy to eat with its crispness and just enough flavor - a thumbs-up https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=zDVGTM6drdus7r-mePzruA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw! Seasonal Lemonade ($3.50): Extra tart lemonade paired with greasy oily crackling fried chicken was just perfection, so I had to try this. Surprisingly, it actually tasted more like mango (a plus!) with a sediment of purely fine pulp. More sweet than tart, it wasn't the pairing I expected but still enjoyed nonetheless and curious about what the other seasonal options would be https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=cDGNiA4gw5ymiX07Wj2YwA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. SERVICE Greeted by a young male, he quickly took my order as the only customer at the time. Through the window, I watched him carefully craft the sliders. About ten minutes later, my order was packaged and ready to go. Sadly, the two sides weren't included so I returned the next day in hopes of getting this resolved. I spoke with a young female, explained what had happened, she graciously apologized, and gave me a complimentary seasonal lemonade for my troubles along with the missing sides. They did the right thing! PARKING (FREE) They had a couple private parking spots. Otherwise, there was plenty of street parking along the main drags of Chevy Chase Blvd. and Glenoaks Blvd.. - 'nuff said. ATMOSPHERE, DÉCOR, AMBIENCE A shack with separate order and takeout windows https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=mC_WGXT_iiy5UA6Dj53pxg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, there was an easily legible menu https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=coCYWpQzEutTkYUcst5-xg&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw, and a covered outdoor dining patio area with several tables https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=xYdd0aL_j0afJLGQYg-XYA&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw. Plenty of natural lighting obviously while some electric ceiling light filled in the rest. No TVs although I believed I heard background music. https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=QnK1eopu10MjHNG8BRxibQ&userid=8jVT2inwc8GIQ6sH2UG9Vw ATTIRE Totally casual, so I would normally be in a t-shirt, boardshorts, and flip-flops. OVERALL Chick Next Door was a wonderful addition to the neighborhood and would return at the very least to finish the menu which was extremely limited. And, it was always a pleasure to support a mom & pop small business. I found complete value based on the prices, service, and experience noted above (TOTAL paid experience was around $41.00 BEFORE any discounts and/or tip). And, they accepted my credit card of choice... AMEX! 5.0 STARS read more

Hello Yelpers! You good?! I hope y'all are. I wanted to talk about the Chick Next Door (loved the name) easy to remember! A friend and I tried out CND thanks to Off the Menu. The chicken slider was bomb! The chicken tender was nice and crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside with a perfectly toasted bun and slaw for the win. The only thing we didn't really like was the fried chicken wings (not pictured) that we ordered in addition the amazing sliders. Our issue was there was batter than chicken the wings were jumbo for sure but there was SO much batter that it came off the wings and with it the flavor. I hope they can fix that mix because I'd like to give them another try. Or at the very least get the sliders again! Quick note: -parking lot on the side and street parking -fun yellow patio read more

Easily one of my favorite hot chicken spots. The batter is thin and the chicken is juicy and flavorful. Fries are seasoned and cooked perfectly. Sliders are with perfect brioche buns. Their sauce is delicious! If you haven't tried it, you definitely should. You can tell they pay attention to the details and did not try to cut costs. Food is great quality. Even the to go bags are customized and great quality. Staff is always friendly and happy. There is a patio dine in area. Parking is usually easy. read more

In comparison to other friend chicken spots, these sandwiches were a lot smaller (came with 2 sliders) for the same price as the other competitors. It's good Bt they ALWAYS mess up the order. I ask for mild they give no spicey, so I thought ok I need more spice they gave another wrong order. It's happened several times and with few of my friends! They need to mark the box as they put it so they won't mess up..it's annoying. Other than that it good read more

I just went there today, with really high expectations but there just weren't meant. They gave me the wrong order twice (they were nice enough to give us the right food when we went back) but honestly it just isn't as good as the hype. The Steve fríes are good, but not amazing, the slider is good but the portion!? The vibe of the place is amazing, I loved it. Over all the Food is okay. I actually liked the churro! read more
FRIES Mmmm...I had no idea these were cajun fries when I first ordered, but they were great! SLIDER I agree with some of the other reviews, I wish the slider had been larger... Even if just the bun was larger it would have helped to keep the whole thing together. ORDERING Super simple, online or in person! PARKING Um...I still don't know the answer, there was no clear parking. PRICING It wasssss a bit steep for the sandwich size. This is my reason for 4 stars instead of 5. read more

Really wanted to love this place but it unfortunately didn't satisfy my hot chicken craving :( The only thing that really threw me off was their sauce, which I know is a personal preference -- so if you like their sauce, you might really like Chick Next Door! The sauce tasted more tomato-y? My boyfriend said it seemed more like a sauce that would be put on salad. The Mini Steve's fries was actually a really large portion, enough for 2 for sure. So if you want to save a few bucks, get the mini instead of the regular size! I enjoyed the fries more than the slider (I think because the mac n cheese overtook the sauce for me). Their mango lemonade is really good! If you check in on Yelp, you get a lemonade or sweet tea for free, which is a really nice deal :) Glad I tried out Chick Next Door even though it didn't exactly live up to my expectations (only because of the sauce!!). But really cute restaurant with unique aesthetic and good service! read more
