The first time i had this food, it was at a catered event. I thought there was no way the food would be this good in the store. My wife and I stopped in on a Sunday and the food was excellent. Especially the ribs!! This particular store looks like it is in an Old Wendy's so nothing fancy but functional. The staff were nice and they have a lot of options on the menu. So far I have not had anything that was not really good.

Half 1/2 Chicken Yucca Fried Plantains Beans

This spot never fails!! The chicken is always so juicy and tender. I got a half chicken, yuca fries, and beans. I also got a side of fried plantains with a cream sauce for dessert. Good service too!

chicken quesadilla!
Gregory F.

Drive by these spots every day, and finally made my way into one. Was pleasantly surprised! Felt more homey than what I expected - delicious chicken quesadilla, although I wish I went with something more adventurous as someone else at my table got a huge burrito and another got some huge chicken dish that looked delish. Nothing too special on the interior, gives off fast food/fast casual with a twist. Quick service, appreciated the speed in which my food came out because I was in a bit of a hurry!

Whole chicken and ribs - sides were rice and beans, yuca fries, regular fries
Michelle T.

Cheap and flavorful chicken. Would skip the ribs - it was ehhh. We made the mistake of trying different sides and I would say get the yuca fries all the way. Regular fries and rice was not good. Yuca fries stayed crispy after sitting in a bag for 35 minutes. Chicken was very flavorful and such a great value. Can't believe this is considered a fast food joint.

The yucca was yummy, the chicken was yummy. The tres leches is spongy and tastes good. I like the decorations! By Chloe

The chicken is very tender and tasty it's like a bomb of flavor in my mouth...the frozen margarita is a little sweet and not bitter at all...I really liked the yucca they made...I liked it a lot...I like that they also have DoorDash...I also like the tres leches it's very spongey...I like the quality of the seating is pretty good by Marcus

Steak taco loaded from the platter

I'd heard about this place for some time and I vowed to visit on my next trip home. So as I drove from a long day one day I stopped here on the way back to my hotel to get some dinner. The guy in the drive-through was extremely friendly and helpful on suggestions for a weary traveler. I decided on the 3 taco platter, with rice and beans. It also included guacamole, Pico, lettuce and sour cream.. It all tasted great and I only made it through about half the platter before saving the rest for breakfast the next morning. Next time I think I'll try the roast chicken, it smelled heavenly as I waited in the drive thru. Thank guys!

We are home due to COVID-19 but still want to support local restaurants. We've been ordering in a lot, so we wanted something good and economical. Chicken Fiesta fit the bill. We ordered the full chicken, which came with 2 sides. For sides we ordered rice and beans. We also ordered a side of tortillas and extra sauce. I think all in with delivery it was around $30-35...a total bargain for the quality. Sides are small so plan to order extra or supplement with your own salad or other veg. Everything was tasty and I'm a huge fan of the spicy green sauce. So yummy. Order from Chicken Fiesta and keep everyone busy and your tummy happy.

1/2 Rotisserie Chicken + Rice + Beans + Yucca Fries
Giovanna D.

First time ever trying Chicken Fiesta and although I have tried other Mexican food places this one became number 1 in the list even above the more 'fancy' places. Ambience wise isn't much but the service was fast, efficient and staff was friendly which makes up for it big time. My wife ordered the Taco Platter and she said it was delicious, the meat wasn't dry and the sauces and guacamole were flavorful and well spiced. She really enjoyed her yuca fries even making a little happy 'dance' while eating them. I ordered the Combo of 1/2 Rotisserie Chicken that came with a small side salad, rice, beans and fries (I chose the Yuca Fries), it was all delicious, portions were just generous, the chicken had just enough spice and didn't taste dry at all. The salad was pretty basic but the rice and beans were very flavorful and I enjoyed it throughly. I absolutely loved the Yuca fries, crispy yet soft on the inside, it all tasted pretty fresh. To add to it I have a pretty delicate stomach (Kind of IBS) and Mexican food has always made it very upset which is why I was reluctant to try it until now but this was actually the first Mexican food place that hasn't made me feel bloated or in pain. Price was more than fair for the amount and quality of food. I will definitely visit again!

I must say I have neglected Chicken Fiesta for a minute. I had company and they ordered Chicken Fiesta. All of the food was seasoned and prepared exceptionally. Everything was devoured in a matter of seconds. They ordered an entire roasted chicken, fried casava and rice (the rice wasn't great). Everything was so good that I ordered food for myself the day after. I ordered grilled chicken tacos, the grilled chicken breast platter (with rice and red beans which was amazing this time around). I added my own cilantro, but the taco's were very good. I wish they would have allowed me to customize our order in door dash. I would have requested salsa or cilantro, The meat was a little bland, but I still enjoyed my tacos. I can eat many of their dishes for my keto diet, which places them on my protein to go list.

I could not think of other popular chain stores, as they are monotonous, all taste one taste, that is salt. I stopped by the nearest Chicken Salad Chick with a lots os skepticism, but left with fulfillment. It is a place for multi- tasting in one plate. A scoop, some salad, loaded with crackers, and sweet grape salad, and amazing dessert on the house which is much more than cookie. Servers were very energetic and funny.

The food came out pretty quickly and I was happy to see that meal came with a pickle spear and a sugar cookie. The flavor and consistency of the chicken salad was perfect, and the lettuce and tomato were great additions. My only disappointment was the bread, which had the consistency of being grilled on a flattop (it wasn't crispy as you'd expect toasted bread to be). The broccoli salad was tasty, but could have used a bit more dressing. The staff was super friendly and helpful. I will definitely frequent this establishment whenever I'm in the mood for a healthy-ish lunch.

My family was visiting from out of town and got into Richmond pretty late, so our dinner options…read morewere a little bit limited. Luckily Lee is open until 9 PM, and I have been meaning to try this place on the recommendation of many friends. When we got there, the drive-through line wrapped around the parking lot, when we walked in, the one inside was equally long. They were so busy that they had to pause orders for a little bit, but the major hold up was with the wings. The way the counter was incredibly nice and helpful. When we told her it was our first time, we ended up deciding to get the chicken tenders and the eight piece family meal. Because we opted to not get the wings since we were hungry, our food came out very quickly. They were kind enough to also include an extra piece in both! The size of the pieces were also very generous, and between the three of us, we had plenty of leftovers. The chicken itself was crispy and delicious, and I loved the wide variety of sauce options that they had. the potato wedges were also great, though I found the mac & cheese and green beans a little bit forgettable. The cashier had told us that the apples were one of her favorite signs, and they were definitely delicious! I would love to come back and try the wings, though I'll know in the future to not order quite as much!

The heat was perfect, the coating crispy, and the wedges were always on point. I couldn't come to Richmond without grabbing spicy wings. So when the owner decided to stop making the spicy wings and convert the fry station to breast strip fryers, that was it for me. That spicy recipe was the reason I came. Without it, this just isn't the same place. I won't be back unless the spicy chicken makes a return.

Boy, were we wrong! We ordered a single smash burger with bacon and onion straws ONLY! There was to be nothing else on it. We ordered a 4-pc chicken combo with waffle fries and cornbread. We also ordered a Honey Butter Buzz chicken sandwich. After waiting 30 minutes, we expected hot food. The fries were cold. The burger had cheese on it that they attempted to scrape off and serve to me! I DO NOT EAT CHEESE!!! The chicken sandwich was devoured by my son. The fried chicken was hot but bland. The cornbread was the best part of my meal - soft and sweet just like I like it. I won't be back personally, but my son may come back. I do not appreciate being given a burger with cheese. If they messed it up, don't try to be slick and scrape it off. Make your customer a brand new one. To prevent me from complaining, my family member just took it to go to eat later himself. Spending over $50, our food should be as ordered. They needed to clean their lobby & the trash attracted gnats and other flying bugs all around the restaurant. Outside of not enjoying my meal, I had to spend my time slapping away bugs. Austin was friendly & there was plenty of parking available. I just wish I had a better experience.

While visiting Richmond, we decided to stop by Dave's Hot Chicken because the boys saw it on TikTok…read moreand had to try it. Of course, they wanted to do the challenge and try the hottest level--the "Reaper." But baby...when I found out it required me to sign a waiver?! Yeah, that was a hard NO for me. So we played it safe--one got the medium, and the other went with the hot (or super hot--whatever is right under that Reaper level). Now for me--I kept it cute and went with the mild slider and fries. I only ordered one slider because I saw how big they were on someone else's plate, and I was right--it was HUGE! And let me tell you, it was actually really good. The chicken was flavorful, crispy, and cooked just right. And listen... I am not a coleslaw person at all, but theirs? Surprisingly good! The pickle added that perfect sweet and tangy kick that pulled everything together. The restaurant itself was clean and had some really cool, colorful artwork that gave it a fun vibe. And the service? Excellent! The cashier was friendly, patient, and really knowledgeable about the different heat levels and flavors, which made ordering super easy. Now, the only downside for me was the price. It felt a little high for what you get, (the meal did not include a drink) so I did take off a star for that. But overall, the food was good, the kids really enjoyed it, and it was a fun stop during our trip. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend checking it out! Rating: 4/5

That said, while it's definitely a strong option, it's not my personal top pick for hot chicken in Richmond. I tend to look for a little more flavor depth alongside the heat. Still worth trying, especially if you're craving something reliably spicy -- it just doesn't quite take the crown for me.

Magical Food…read moreWe got a basket of 10 fried boneless wings tossed in mild buffalo sauce, a small bag of buffalo ranch fries, a drink and a complementary cup of the pickle coleslaw. Everything was fantastic. The chicken was crispy to the last wing, flavor of the sauce was excellent. Fries were crispy with great flavor with the buffalo each rub. We ordered a small and the bag was huge. I don't know if that was a mistake but if it was truly a small there would never be a reason to order the large as it could easily feed 4. Ranch dipping sauce was excellent and the coleslaw was surprisingly great. Service Food came out quickly and the staff was friendly. I was a little taken back that there was no one to take our order only iPads but when I was having trouble someone came over to help and was friendly. Ambiance It is a small place with half a dozen tables. Decor is nothing special but it is clean. Price Our meal was $26 but it easily fed both me and my wife so split between us wasn't bad.

The chicken itself was not dry, it was very good texture and flavor. The sauces that come with it were also all very tasty. (There was a spicy red, a mild green, and a yellow) The green and red were probably my favorite. First time having Yuca Fries, they went well with the sauce! The string beans and steamed veggies were lowkey also really good and went well with the chicken, rice, and black beans. There was also the shrimp ceviche which was definitely different than what I normally get went well, when I wrapped all the stuff in a lettuce leaf(not sure if that's what you're supposed to do). It had shrimp, some kind of sweet potato(which was good!), and Peruvian corn which was super cool. Then there was the Bistec a lo Pobre, which had Carne Asada, with fries and rice and other stuff. Also very good. Then the plantains which were all very good, definitely added a nice sweet addition to the meal. To top it all off, there was a cookie I was not sure the name of but it was good LOL.
