Ribs are always good, side ok, fries soggy. Prices on menu appear to be pre Covid. Only accept cash.

The ribs are so good. The cheesecake is plain so thta was false advertising. The gyro was ok.

Hey I love this place best grilled chicken with the flat bread. Gyros are very filling especially the lamb.

Ordered 1/4 white meat it comes with two sides and half pita bread. Got corn and potatoes. The potatoes was good corn not so good over cooked. Chicken was really good, a lot of flavor juicy and with the green sauce it's a great meal. Paid 16$ to me it's worth the price read more

They pride themselves in making delicious food. Anytime I tell them that I want "juicy chicken" they make sure to make it perfect and juicy. I love the roast mary potatoes. The customer service is also amazing and I highly recommend. read more

Ribs ok , not great, rice and beans bad.... Chicken taste like something else. Will never go back to this place again, no real BBQ flavor at Att. Prices posted in social media are not real. They say they not able to change prices? Is this a joke? If you get food here get ready to pay double the prices listed. Not anymore..., read more

One of those local neighborhood spots where you just accept them for who they are. Small location, hard to park, not much seating, weird decor, questionable customer service at times, long lines, and you may even witness peculiar food prep once in a while. However, as long as you don't see anything out right gross you disregard it all... You Bless your food and enjoy the reason you even tolerated it all in the first place... the Charcoal Grilled Chicken cooked on the open grill as soon as you entered. Mouthwatering, juicy, flavorful, and tender are some of the great reasons that made you tolerate the hiccups in the first place. I don't eat red meat so I only order their tasty chicken which comes with warm grilled pita bread. I've tried the mashed potatoes and side salad once, they did the job. Anything else on the menu I didn't come here for so I really can't give an opinion. Side note: Always wondered if they had any association with the chirping chickens in the city... probably not bc menus are so different. read more

Chirping Chicken - Charcoal Chicken on the Grill - Barbeque Near Me - Bronx, New York

Their food is really tasty... their bbq chicken is my favorite, the taste never deviates... the salad is amazing... their ribs are really good and tender... the chicken still my fav! Recommend highly! Their prices are reasonable... read more

The grilled chicken was not fresh . The meat was spoiled. I couldn't eat it the snell eliminating from the bag was horrendous!!

The food was OK. It was kind of like eating at a lunch room. There's a lot of meat on the ribs and the chicken was fairly good but for what it is, it is way too expensive. It's just grilled chicken and grilled ribs The mac & cheese flavorless definitely like an instant mac & cheese but I figured it would be cheap for where it is and how crummy it is. I figured it would be a hole in the wall that had good food but affordable price but the food wasvery expensive $75 on a rack of ribs and half a chicken with some salad and instant mac & cheese. I don't mind paying more if the food is delicious and there was a good service the girl working at the front was very sweet and , but it's not a normal restaurant serving situation u just walk up and order which I get but $75 for a rack of ribs and half a chicken is absolutely crazy. I could've gone out to a nicer restaurant and spent that, it's a shame I was really hoping to like this place it being close to my house the way too expensive for what it is read more

I love chirping chicken they also have pork ribs and wow it's delicious. It's cooked grilled style so it has a nice chard taste to it extremely delicious numerous sides to choose from. Definitely recommend! A favorite for me! You walk past it and don't think much but once you walk in the smell the taste of the food it's extremely delicious! read more

Although this place is a "chain" it's pretty good. Not Popeye's good, though. Meals such as a quarter or half chicken meals come with sides and a pita. These are a bargain for lunch. The menu also includes chicken cutlets, chicken fingers, chicken sandwiches, fried shrimps, fish fillets, and hamburgers. You'll also find sides (mash potatoes, corn, stuffing, standard fare) and salads. If you want to buy food for a group, you can buy a whole chicken and bunch of ribs to take home. The baby back ribs are grilled in front of you and brushed a few times with BBQ sauce. Juicy. 12/5/07 UPDATE: I felt lazy and didn't want to cook. I ordered a #3 meal for carry out, which consisted of a whole chicken, full rack of ribs, 3 sides and a few pitas. I chose lemon potatoes, rice & beans and corn. I also asked for a side of large fries. Damn I'm fat. My brother, wife and I enjoyed the grub, along with leftovers. I received a complimentary 2008 (sport tuned Hondas) calendar and magnet.

Chirping Chicken - October 2007: these half rack of ribs are good - Barbeque Near Me - Bronx, New York

Wow Move over Dallas BBQ, this is one diamond in the rough, there baby back ribs are to die for. Me and my beloved placed and order and we did not know that it would be mind changing, meat just melt in your mouth, taste and the sweet BBQ sauce was just right not to biter and not to sweet. The corn ,lemon potato and Mac was on the money. I have tried many others but I feel that I have found the holy Grail of, BBQ. Love it. read more

See all

Listen i could eat their food everyday their grilled chicken is seasoned just right flavor on point. And the Greek salad is amazing.

The chicken sandwich was horrible low quality chicken for a ridiculously high price how are the reviews so high? How does this place stay in business ? read more

The side dishes do not seem to appealing not taste it. It looks like they quickly toss them in the back kitchen and place them openly near where cooks talk and pass back and forth They should consider getting a longer awning for buffet to keep from things getting in side dishes. read more

Doesn't look like much from the outside but the chicken is pretty damn good. Fast service decent prices and friendly staff. Great neighborhood spot ! read more

We called and ordered at 8:40 PM for delivery and they accepted out order and told us to expect the food to arrive in half an hour. An hour have passed and the food still did not arrive. We called the place again for 5 times and nobody picked-up. read more

First and last time i will visit this place. 1. They don't take credit cards through the phone. 2. For the quality of their food- overpriced. 3. Lastly, they don't take American Express smh. Such a disappointment read more

Best smell ever when you first walk in. Great prices too. They freshly grill the chicken and ribs in front of you.The mashed potatoes and mac n cheese are exellent as well. I always stop there when visiting the Bronx. read more

A place close to where I live in the Bronx that has excellent BBQ Ribs and Chicken! You can drive up and grab a rack of ribs or a whole chicken to go. While I am not a great fan of their sides - there ribs and chicken are very good. The meat on there pork ribs (especially on there baby back ribs) and chicken is moist and tender. The BBQ sauce is sweet and tangy (and great for dipping your fries in!). If your near the Pelham Bay section of the Bronx stop by the Chirping Chicken to get your BBQ fix on! read more

Thank you for coming to my neighborhood! The chicken a la brasa is great. They still have to figure out the best order/pick up procedure, but they are working the kinks out. Mashed potatoes and gravy are always cold, regardless if you eat it there or take out, so get french fries instead if you crave carbs. But it's all about the chicken at this palce for me. Like other yelpers have said, the sides are all very bland. But the chicken makes up for it. Service is a little slow, but give them time to (hopefully) improve their ordering process. I wouldn't eat in very often, because there's no real separation between dining in and the line for ordering the food, so you don't get any privacy at all. And the tables are unusually large for seating for only 2 people. The decor is outdated, but I understand, the focus is on the chicken. read more

Chicken was a bit dry and I personally felt the portion was not as big as it used to be. Maybe they had someone else cook it. Will give benefit of the doubt and see if it gets better next time. I love Chirping Chicken in general. The wings and chicken fingers I love! They have chains all over NYC! What's your favorite food item here? :) read more

The chicken and ribs are great. I love that they cook it right in front of you. The sides are also tasty. I go here at least twice a month. Prices are definitely reasonable. read more

This review is purely based on their ribs and sauce. If you're in the mood for BBQ and don't want to hump it to Manhattan or Kansas City, then this is it. While it's not the "real deal" southern BBQ, the sauce is fantastic and the ribs are good. It'll definitely satisfy your craving It would be nice if they were on GrubHub. It's 2011 damnit. read more

Surprising to find a Chirping Chicken all the way up in Pelham Bay, given that most are located in midtown.Having tried it before, I knew what I was in for,and knew I wanted some grilled chicken and ribs, it's what they are good at, you can skip the sides, they're ehhh at best, not bad, but not impressive. So after eating a plate and enjoying with an ice-cold Corona I was stuffed, all their combos also come with a Pita that soaked in the meats sauces (A++). Price was about 10 bucks. As for taste, it's not the best, but for a chain restaurant that you can sit at a wobbly table or get home delivery, its good enough. read more

Chirping Chicken - 1/2 Chicken - Barbeque Near Me - Bronx, New York

Ordered the grill chicken Caesar salad the salad was fresh and delish but had to dispose of the chicken it was very dirty as if it was used to clean the grill ..Just could not. They have other items on the menu that looks great if a salad is not your thing you be the judge. read more

Terrible. I got a half rack of bbq ribs with corn and macaroni & cheese as the sides. The ribs had a lot of fat and very little bbq sauce. The corn tasted like it was poured directly from a can. The macaroni & cheese tasted like noodles in water. read more

If you just stick with the meat, it's ok. Their sides are terrible. My boyfriend and I were so turned off by the macaroni and cheese that we actually returned it hahahaha Yes, apparently you can do such a thing! We exchanged it for another side, I don't remember what, and that was gross, too. Chicken and ribs. Seeing as how it's right around the corner from me, and I work upstairs from the one in GCT, I'll probably go back. read more

Ordered from here Friday and Saturday and apart from a so so burger,the wings,chicken ,and the Creme de la Creme the ribs,best ribs ever I live close by..., i love this place.top draw. read more

The food at Chirping Chicken is good. The chicken off the grill has a nice char flavor on the skin and it is flavorful and moist. The pita bread is a plus and the gyros are also tasty. Delivery has taken up to 45 minutes and is cash only. Would rate higher but the customer service is severely lacking. Politeness goes a long way, especially for small businesses. read more

Nothing quite hits the spot like some chicken and ribs from Chirping..the food is always grilled in the front and BBQ'd to perfection..the delivery is terrible so if you want to be truly satisfied go pick it up because the food isn't fast food cheap..The sides are decent (far from spectacular) but your going here for the delicious whole/half chickens and baby back ribs read more

Excellent ribs and chicken. I'm not really crazy about the sides although the salads aren't bad. I really encourage the owners to improve on those side because they really hinder the quality of their ribs and chicken which are very good. I will definitely go back for take out of plain ribs and chicken. read more

CHICKEN!!! My favorite neighborhood chicken place. When I deem it time for a proper animal sacrifice (in this case, chicken) this is the temple I collect from. The reason why it gets three stars (and not 4) is the service. They only do the bare minimum to get the job done. But the preparation and quality of food, value, and convenience makes this a great alternative if you're sick of ordering chinese for the third time this week: WHAT TO EXPECT: - They sometimes do credit card over the phone. In my experience it depends on which girl answers the phone. - If you decide to go there physically, don't hold any expectations regarding fine dining. Though the tables are big enough to hold more than enough food for the four people it sits. - Before you step in, you'll see rotisserie pit of 20+ whole chickens through the window. If that doesn't pique your appetite, go see a doctor. Seriously. - Their menu is similar to ordering from a Mexican version of Boston Market. You have your fraction portions of chicken and sides (mashed potatoes, rice and beans, corn, etc.). They do also have ribs, but I have yet to try them. Chicken is enough of a distraction. - They have Mexican brand beers, Mexican coke (sugar replacing high fructose corn syrup), ...and that's pretty much the beverages sold there. I'd suggest going to the corner deli for a more varied selection. - The service is "whatever". Like I said, it's not fine dining. You're there for the food. read more

The chicken and ribs are tender, juicy and full of grilled flavor. I've never dined in but it's so much better to order delivery from these guys than a pizza joint. Sometimes the delivery can be a wait but that just shows how good they are! read more

It was my first time eating at this restaurant. The prices are a little high, the chicken was good however the stuffing was too soft and soggy. read more

Good chicken and ribs, bad sides except for the stuffing. Great price and huge portions. The ribs have so much meat on them. My wife and I got sick after eating the ribs. We're not sure it was from there, but we think it was. read more

Excellent Ribs and Chicken cooked on a big pit by the window,lots of other options also available,Gyros,grilled chicken ,Steaks(which i keep saying im going to try) but the Ribs are so good they keep me coming back for more.They have plenty of side options always fresh, hot and cold from salads, to potatoes ,mashed or lemon (both good) they have mac and cheese,stuffing ,green beans ,corn etc etc..More of a take out setting but they do have a couple of tables if you choose to eat in,Very busy but the staff is always friendly,I usually call first ,to avoid the lines .Be prepared to double park. read more

Love love this place! Best chicken hands down!!! I go every Sunday after my workouts to indulge on some fresh chicken that taste good and is on the healthy version (I have to remove the skin but still so good and with the skin even better) the pita bread that goes with it compliments it well. It's a bit on the expensive side compared to like a Brisas but the quality is worth it. Can't give the place a whole 5 stars because the sides are not so good. Ribs are equally as good too! read more
