    Original chop chop with spicy salsa verde and pico de gallo.
    Maria R.

    I went to Chicken Kitchen on Tuesday at 1 PM for lunch. The place was busy, but the line moved quickly. I had the Original Chop Chop, which was tasty and filling with tender chicken and rice. The service was friendly and fast. Overall, it was a great spot for a quick and delicious meal.

    This chicken kitchen is super close to my home. Today was my first time visiting this restaurant and it was very good. The restaurant was extremely clean, I honestly think the cleanest restaurant I've ever been in. The tables were spaced out. There was 3 employees working and there was NO LINE. I repeat, there was NO LINE. They were fast, efficient & most importantly friendly. The chicken that was in my bowl was fresh off the grill and chopped right infront of me. I will most certainly be visiting at least once a week.

    Like most Chicken Kitchen locations, it's a good place for a quick bite, except when the lines are long. I've been here several times and the employees are usually like robots. They are there to work and that's it. The seating areas are sticky sometimes, but it's fairly clean. The condiment areas can get very messy though. There's a soda fountain machine by the side next to one of the doors. I love the crispy chicken skins, the employee will give you some if they are available. Also, if you show your FIU ID, you get a discount on your order. I suggest always leaving a tip because the employees are people too and they're there to make an income. The service may not be the best, but every little bit helps.

    Bad coleslaw in the garbage

    Just ordered from Uber eats . Had a no carb chop chop and a small order of coleslaw. The chop chop was all salad and like 5 pieces of chicken . Order a large was more like a medium which they don't even offer . The coleslaw was bad had to throw it out . The quality of this place has gone down the tubes in won't be going back .

    Rubber chicken

    Ordered Uber eats, spent $30 for two things. They always forget the pita so much that I just expect it. My issue is with the quality - it's usually mediocre (somewhat dry but manageable) but this time it was like eating rubber. Completely inedible. You bit into it and your teeth sprung back. Something was obviously wrong with it visually and it should've never been sent out the way it was.

    Tiny water cup and miniature sauce container
    Noel A.

    Hadn't came here in a long time due to the restrictive portions on the chicken. They put up signs on all the windows advertising "more Chicken same price", that was false. They're still using those tiny measuring cups for the chicken. 80% rice bowls with a small portion of chicken. I asked for a cup of water and I received what seems to be a large shot glass, maybe 4 ounces, had to refill 3 times. And the tiny containers for sauce were ridiculous. Portion control here obviously take precedent. This is why Chipotle is a way better option and cheaper. Won't be coming back anytime soon.

    Why does the sauce station always look like ass?
    John C.

    I usually go here on either Friday or Saturday mornings right when they open. There's a guy there that if you say hello, good morning and thank you, we'll give you extra beans and chicken. Also the manager's pretty cute I like her. They sure put a ton of rice on the large Cuban chop, sometimes I need to ask for less rice because that's pretty much all I'm getting. I never eat there, I usually get take out however I did need to use the restroom once and it was pretty nasty. Also the sauce station is always a mess. The food is pretty decent nothing to write home about but much better than the nasty Tropichop. If you're hungry it will cure it.

The location was on the sides of two busy roads so if you are walking from one Of the nearby hotels be careful.

    (2/5) -- Great concept, but this visit missed the mark…read more I really wanted to like this Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers location more than I did, because the concept is solid and, generally, Cane's food hits. But this visit? Frustrating from start to finish. First off, the setup is misleading. The inside looked empty, and even the drive-thru appeared manageable--until you actually commit. You have to drive deep into the parking lot just to see how long the line really is, and once you're in, there's no easy way out. So now you're stuck. Not ideal. Then comes the wait. About 10 minutes just to place an order, with aggressive drivers jockeying for position like it's a race. I get it--no one wants to sit in that line--but the flow (or lack of it) makes it worse. For a place with two lanes, the organization just isn't there. Service at the speaker? Rough. I felt rushed the entire time, struggled to hear over the noise, and kept getting hit with "I can't hear you, speak up" in a tone that felt more dismissive than helpful. No upsell, no real engagement--just hurry up and move along. To their credit, the pickup window redeemed things a little. Once I got there, the food was ready, and they even overdelivered on condiments (asked for two ketchups, got four). That part was efficient--but it came after a pretty long wait for only about seven cars ahead of me. Now, the food... This is where things really slipped. * The 4-piece tenders felt noticeably smaller--more like large nuggets than actual tenders * Fries were undercooked and skimpy for the price and I had to ask for ketchup * Sweet tea was mostly ice, barely any drink * Overall portions just didn't match the cost For a brand that usually delivers consistency, this felt off. Like corners were being cut. Final take: Started as a 3-star experience based on the process, but dropped to 2 stars once the food came into play. If I could split it, it'd be a 2.5--but Yelp doesn't do that. This place should be better. The foundation is there. But between the chaotic drive-thru, rushed service, and underwhelming portions, it's just not hitting right now. Hope they tighten things up--because Cane's can be really good when it's done right.

    Fresh, Massive Bowls Right Across from FIU…read more If you are looking for a solid spot near Florida International University that moves beyond the standard fast-casual chain, The Green Chicken is a great find. It's located right across the road from campus, making it an easy win for students or anyone in Sweetwater looking for a reliable, healthy-ish meal. The interior is pretty standard--a nondescript, counter-service setup designed for efficiency. However, the outdoor seating area is where this place really shines. It is well-shaded and shielded from the Florida sun, creating an inviting space whether you're meeting up with friends or need a spot to pop open the laptop and get some work done. The menu is surprisingly expansive, but the best way to describe the experience, at least for what I ordered, is an elevated Chipotle bowl. I went with the Jerk Chicken bowl over black beans (no rice). The Chicken had a nice, clean flavor. It wasn't seasoned to the extreme, so if you're looking for a massive spice kick, you might want to ask for extra sauce, but the quality of the meat was clear. The black beans were cooked perfectly, and all the veggie add-ins were crisp and fresh. The staff here is incredibly friendly and they clearly pride themselves on the "heavy hand"--the portions are huge. You definitely won't leave hungry. It's a great local alternative when you want something fresh, fast, and substantial.

    I ordered via Grubhub, so I can't say anything about the restaurant. I received the food still hot…read morewhich was great! I got the Regular Chicken Lunch Bowl. The portion was big which I liked. The flavors were delicious! The spice es level was perfect! I really loved my bowl and will be ordering again because it also feels fresh. 100% recommended!!
