I usually come to Chicken King on West Boulevard because I really like their food, but the customer service SUCKS! I called to ask about menu prices because I only had a certain amount of money to spend and did not have the menu in front of me. After asking about three items, the MAN answering the phone became rude, hung up on me, and when I called back, he said, "I'm not going to go over the menu with you. You can come in. I don't have time for that." I wasn't asking for the entire menu--just a few prices so I could decide what I could afford before making the trip. There was no reason to be disrespectful or hang up on a customer. Good food is important, but good customer service matters too. I hope management addresses this because I've enjoyed coming here in the past, but experiences like this make me think twice about returning. read more

Chicken King - Grilled chicken salad with ranch!!!! Heaven!!! - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

There a a few Chicken King locations in Charlotte, but I happen to feel that this one is the best! There is ample free parking in the front. You walk up to the window and place your order. Tina took my order and she was very helpful with suggestions for my selection. She insisted that I would like the shrimp and she was right! You can go back to your car or you can wait outside for your food to be ready. Tgere us no inside dining. I have to say it was relatively affordable and more food than could eat! The fries were crinkle fries and they had just a little salt, enough to make them tasty. The coleslaw I may not order again, but that's just my personal preference- I love a chunky coleslaw, and this one was finely minced. The oysters were slightly overcooked, but they were lightly breaded and delicious. The Jumbo shrimp, also lightly breaded was what Tina said they would be and I enjoyed them. My flounder was the star of the show! They were bigger pieces than I am used to getting and they were seasoned and cooked perfectly. I had forgotten about this spot, but it is back in rotation! read more

The food is amazing. They are not open on the weekend. Sandwiches worth every penny. Food is flavored and always fresh.

Best food in a 50 mile radius!!! It's tucked away and pickup only... but doesn't matter where you eat it... you'll only remember that you're going back again! Great service, fast, fresh, and the front is glass so you can see how clean it is too! Thank you La Shawn for recommending! read more

Chicken King - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I ordered the chicken tender dinner and it is always delicious. The chicken tenders crunchy and juicy and the fries seasoned to perfection with seasoned salt. The ranch dressing is the bomb to dip your fries and chicken tenders in. I have been to almost all their locations and the food is always great. The employees are always friendly. I have no complaints. read more

Pulled up & it looked closed. Empty. No lights on. 1 blue car parked to the right of the building. Painted on the glass is a message saying call in only (or take out only). I should've taken a picture. I'm at another location. I did actually call while I was still in the parking lot & got a message that the line was busy. If it's call in only or if they're closed, it needs to be made known just as the Bradford Rd location. read more

Chicken King - A PERFECTLY FRIED "2 FISTED" CHICKEN FILET SANDWICH W/ THE WORX!! - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

I've never had a bad meal from Chicken King. I usually go to the West Blvd. location or the one off S. Tryon. I've had the fried chicken, cheesesteak, grilled chicken sandwich, and ribeye sandwich. All have been delicious. Both the ribeye and chicken sandwich come with lettuce and tomato and I believe mayo. The staff is super nice and the West Blvd. location allowed my friend to shoot a music video in their parking lot. The food is always hot, fast, and affordable - there are always daily specials and with a vast menu you'll have no problem finding something great to eat there. read more

If I could give this place a zero fucking star , it would've had it ,I ordered a burger meal or whatever , and it was cold n tasted like fish , I don't eat fish , if I wanted sun fucking fish I would've ordered it , the fries weren't fresh , the food literally stunk , smelled like it was sitting in hotdog water for 6 hours , it was hair on it , it was just horrible , with this location it's a hit or miss , and after that I'm done read more

This location has by far the worst customer service. The one lady running the front is very loud and rude. I wanted a salad with romaine lettuce (who even eats iceberg), and they were arguing back forth with me over the salad. I simply asked for romaine lettuce or a refund. I wasn't paying $12 for an iceberg lettuce salad. The lady told me that my co-worker had to drive up to the restaurant to get a refund since she was the one that placed the order. Why would someone that is at work leave work to come and get a refund, when I was already standing right there? If you want good service and a romaine lettuce salad please visit the location on Nations Ford. My co-worker went to get lunch today, and they refused to service her. I will never go back to this location. read more

Very good chicken - so that goal was met! All the sides are also very delish ! I'd recommend to offer some different sauces

Absolutely the BEST chicken I have ever ate! Oh my the flavors. I stopped in because it is close to work and others had talked about the food. Man this place did not disappoint. Tons of chicken on a bed of fresh lettuce, tomatoes and cucumbers. Delicious ranch (I recommend getting an extra dressing as you will need it for all that food!). When I took back to work I had staff coming to my office...they said the whole floor smelled so good from the chicken. I recommend you go and get some today! read more

I just moved to the neighborhood, and I there is no fast food with in walking distance of the place i moved to, and I have no car, and one of my neighbors told me they had great food there, Well my family and I being very hungry one night, and not having a way to the grocery store until in the morning, we decided to go here, now I cant say much about there chicken, but we ordered a cheeseburger and large fry, and OMG, it was delicious!! We have been going back there and ordering from them ever since, and it is family ran, and you always see the same nice smiling faces!! read more

Chicken King - a parking lot with cars parked in it - American Near Me - Charlotte, North Carolina

Not a big fan of this place. Pretty hard to screw up chicken but they did a pretty well so I don't think I'll ever go back not sure parking pretty below average read more

I have now been to 3 of these locations and this one is by far my favorite. Although the building is small and the seating is limited the food is amazing and fast. The Philly, made on soft local bread with just a touch of toasting, means you can enjoy your Philly without wearing it. I highly recommend you make them your 'spot' to pick up dinner that you don't want to cook. Be sure to call ahead to avoid a delay. The whole family will be happy. read more

The worst experience ever.. They service was extremely slow and the cashier was so rude to myself and other people around me. The cashier got so mad at someone trying to explain to her what they wanted she called the lady a stupid ass.. I will Never eat from this place again read more

I ordered the flounder dinner. Generous portions.My meal was delicious. It came with the fish, cole slaw, french fries, and hush puppies. The only thing working against them is the appearance of the establishment, it looks a bit tattered but the food makes up for it. Also this is not a sit down establishment like the one in SW Charlotte. Business is family run. read more

A very strange experience. Me and my husbands first time there and the cashier and cook are arguing with a lady. Granted the lady was very very rude and should learn some manners...... that ruined the cashier from there on out, she was very rude and kept making mistakes. Just a really awful experience... it was our first time, and it was our last read more

food is ok....but....their phone service sucks...a lot of time like tonite can't get thru to them....oh well....i gotz to find a better place, smdh read more

Stopped by this location after having a bad experience at a different location. Place was busy. Lots of customers waiting for orders. Take out place. Only a few stools to sit on while you wait. There is one table with chairs, but it was designated "For employees only". Ordered the fried croaker dinner. A ton of food! Two huge pieces of croaker with fries, slaw, hush puppies and tarter sauce. Around 8 dollars and enough food for two people (unless you have a really big appetite). The tarter sauce was okay, a little too onion-y for me, but I like mine sweet. The fries were hot and crispy.They have a big container of seasoned salt to shake onto them. Also, hot sauce, salt and pepper, and ketchup.I say this because you need to open your order and add these things before you leave the restaurant. They don't bother with those fancy little ketchup packets and salt and pepper and whatnot. The hushpuppies were delicious! But the star of the meal was the fried croaker itself. Fried to crispy perfection! It was so hot I couldn't wait to eat it and almost burned my tongue. It tasted fresh and a tad salty, but not too salty. Wish this place was closer to my house! I was just driving through the neighborhood when I spotted and pulled in. On second thought, maybe it's a good thing it's NOT close to my house! I would be tempted to order from there every night! read more
