    Fried chicken cutlet
    Judy T.

    Fried chicken cutlet with sweet potato fries & drink combo ($16.99) All the food is made fresh, the fried chicken is piping hot, tender & juicy, really enjoyed it! I chose plum seasoning for an added sweet, sour flavour, it was delicious! It's a very filling quick meal, would def love to come back!

    Fried Chicken Cutlet With Boss Fries

    Chunky Boss 129 E. 45th. St. New York, NY 10017 Fried Chicken Cutlet with Boss Fries Spicy Chicken Cutlet In the east section of NYC is a Taiwanese chicken joint that shares its lease with a bubble tea shop. The packaging and insignia is the icing on the cake (metaphorically speaking). The appearance of the box and the wax paper really caught my eye. It only gets better when you taste the chicken. It's hot, thick and juicy to the core! You will savor each and every bite. For a small charge, you can order dipping sauces such as sweet chili. The only minor downside is the side dish. When I originally ordered boss fries, I was expecting something unique and out of this world. But, it's basically another fancy term for French fries. It doesn't hurt to choose one of their delicious bubble teas to supplement your meal. If you are on the go and need a quick meal, grab one of these cutlets while you can. But, make sure you arrive between 11:30 AM to 4:30 PM because these cocks are only available during a 5-hour span every day.

    BEST CHICKEN + FRIES + DRINK COMBO - literally you cannot beat $15ish for all 3 and the chicken is huge, bigger than your face but still so juicy and crispy. Fries were average but still good. Plus a tiger sugar drink! Literal go to. Smallest shop and sitting area though.

    This Chunky Boss is a small store that shares it's space with Tiger Sugar. Inside the store there are only few stools to sit and dine. The menu has the cutlets and popcorns, and combos for those come with fries. Some of the flavors I wanted to order were not available at that time. After ordering, it took them about 10-15 minutes cook the chicken. I was so surprised how huge the piece of cutlet was, almost had never seen a piece chicken that large. The chicken had such a pleasant flavor. It was moist and soft inside. Fries tasted average.

    Chicken cutlet with classic pepper flavor

    I can only speak to the chicken because that's the only thing I ordered, but man it's really tasty. I'm impressed with how they're able fry such huge cutlets and still keep them incredibly juicy. If you're a fan of Taiwanese fried chicken, you'll like food here. Recommend: Crispy Chicken Cutlet with Classic Pepper flavor

    Chicken cutlet with fries
    Samantha H.

    My first time in the city and based off recs online we decided to give this place a try. I ordered the chicken cutlet combo and really enjoyed it. The chicken was cooked perfectly- the flavor was great and the crisp was spot on. I also really enjoyed the fries- they were sweet and salty which was def unique but a hit. The boba was good, nothing spectacular. The restaurant is very small with only a few barstools against the wall and got quite crowded while we were waiting for food.

    Note: It's only open for a few hours 11:30-2:30 every day. My friend mentioned this place by Grand Central and it has a whole chicken cutlet. For $16 you get a combo which includes drink (select from the ones with stickers on the menu), chicken cutlet (sandwiches sell out early), and fries. The chicken cutlet with plum powder is larger than my hand. It's sufficient for a meal and truthfully I didn't need the fries with the chicken cutlet and drink. I decided to pick the signature black sugar boba and pearl milk with cream mousse since I didn't have time to examine all the drinks. This is one of the popular drinks and it's one of Tiger Sugar's known drinks. Second time I didn't want black sugar boba and picked lychee black tea with bursting boba. I will try a different powder maybe pepper next time. Give it a try if you are in the neighborhood.

    I had to check this place out as my colleague told me that this is a new up and coming spot to check out. Apparently, it's all over social media, too. The place is right near where we work, so I had to go during lunchtime to get the fried chicken cutlets. It's located inside the iconic tiger sugar place. The sign isn't that large for chunky boss, but when you see the sign for tiger sugar, you can't miss it. I was a bit confused as to where you go to order as there was no one to direct you nor a sign. But there's only one way to order the chicken it's with the register inside. The tablet outside is only for tiger sugar. It's quite busy inside. Everyone is either waiting for their food or on the line to order. The menu is simple to understand. You can either order individually or in a combo. The chicken sandwich combos, from what I understand, get sold out fairly quickly, so if you want that, go when they open. The drink that comes with the combos are the tiger sugar ones. The chicken cutlets itself are huge, and the fried batter isn't too thick. I got the spicy one, and it was just tangy. I wasn't asked about the powder, so I forgot to get one with my order. They do give out ketchup packets, too, if you ask for those. Shared the fries with my coworker, and it comes with cheese sauce. All in all, I would go back to try another chicken cutlet flavor.

    Just casually eating a big piece of fried chicken cutlet down the street is literally my vibe lol! I love the concept of being able to conveniently eat a piece of protein without getting your hands dirty or using any utensils! Crispy chicken cutlet - 8/10 It is literally a chicken nugget but enlarged. It is very juicy and was made to order. Nice thin crispy crust and it was so easy to eat. I got it with the classic pepper powder which was not spicy it was more simply like black or white pepper to give it some flavor. Spicy chicken cutlet - 7/10 I don't like the spicy chicken cutlet that much because the spiciness comes from a sauce on top of the chicken and it makes the paper all wet and not convenient to hold and eat. The spiciness was also classic pepper powder flavor but it was kind of sweet and hot. Not very spicy at all. Golden Chicken Fingers - 8/10 Classic chicken fingers. Its the cutlet but finger form. Same crust and same flavor. Also, service was excellent! They guided us through the menu and advised us on how to order. They also have a window where you can self order if you feel antisocial. The chicken did take a while to get. It took about 10-15 minutes for the chicken to get fried. It is very small in there and there are only high chairs so it is not convenient to eat there unless you are by yourself. Kind of cramped. Overall, I enjoyed this place! I love the concept of the chicken and they were very fresh and juicy. I was so full I could barely finish 1 chicken cutlet. Definitely worth it!

    Pepper chicken combo with fries
    Emily P.

    I was delighted this afternoon to finally see Chunky Boss appear as an option on Ubereats. I took advantage of their availability and finally tried their chicken, french fries, and boba tea combo. $20 for the meal seemed a bit steep, but when I opened the box after it arrived, I understood why. They give you a giant slab of chicken, probably enough for 2 people. But once you take a bite of that juicy, peppery cutlet, you won't want to share with anyone else. The seasoning of the classic pepper cutlet was zesty and slightly sweet. It complemented the tender and crunchy chicken well. The fries also had a sweeter taste to them, probably due to the seasoning rubbing off on them. The fries were good, but the chicken was GREAT. I would definitely have it again. The other amazing perk that comes with your meal is getting to select a medium drink from Tiger Sugar! It's been too long since my last brown sugar boba from them, so I opted for one to have as a nice dessert after my savory meal. My only regret is that I didn't try Chunky Boss sooner!

    Sweet Chili Chicken Cutlet
    Christopher W.

    Chunky Boss sweet chili chicken cutlet is freaking amazing. The cutlet is huge, bigger than my hand and feels heavy. The sweet chili flavor is delicious and saucy, and the breading is very crispy. I went here two days in a row, first time after a 5k with friends and second day after work. The inside is pretty small and only two seats which is ok. Most people pick up and leave. I think the place needs to upgrade their air conditioning though, it was a hot day and felt hot inside.

    Classic Pepper Powder Cutlet
    Bernie A.

    If you're in the mood for massive, juicy chicken cutlets, Chunky Boss is the spot! I ordered the classic pepper powder cutlet on my first visit. The chicken itself? Perfectly cooked, super juicy, and packed with protein--a definite win in my book. However, the classic pepper flavor wasn't really my vibe after a few bites. It's not bad, just not the right choice for my taste buds. That said, I'm definitely coming back to try a different flavor--I have a feeling my banger is still waiting for me on the menu. See you soon, Chunky Boss!

    Came here for the infamous fried chicken patty. We got the spicy version. It came with sauce to make it "spicy". I thought it was going to be in the seasoning but that's my bad. It took 10 min for the chicken to come out. It was piping hot. You could see the steam. Glad i tried this spot out. $9 for the chicken solo.

I brought it back and showed the staff the uncooked pork and the blood/red liquid on the napkin. They simply re-steamed them and brought them back except now there was no soup left inside the dumplings at all. The chicken teriyaki was tough and chewy, almost like jerky, as if it had been overcooked on an extremely hot grill or deep fried too long. The spring rolls were mediocre at best, with vegetables inside that had a mushy, paste-like texture. Very disappointing. Honestly, the best part of the meal was the rice. Do yourself a favor and skip this place.

The burgers are on the smaller side (not White Castle small, but my daughter usually eats two!), but at $6.50 for a single patty cheeseburger, it's a OK value. Don't skip the fries--they are crispy, delicious, and a generous portion for the price. Quick, easy, and fast! The staff was friendly, welcoming, and easygoing. One small snag at this location. My daughter requested, "no pickles." There were pickles in her burger. No biggie. She simply took them out and gave them to me. This location's supervisor overheard us. He apologized. We told him it was ok. No big deal. He didn't accept that. While we appreciated his standards, we felt put on the spot as much as his crew did. We felt bad for the cashier and made sure we told him we were sorry for how things went down. None of it was needed nor justified. Hence, the 4 out of 5 stars! Fast-casual vibe that feels a bit more low-key than standard fast-food joints. At this location there's a few booths, but they are usually occupied. We had to wait a few minutes until people left to get seats. 7th Street always hits!

    Finally made it to the new Rowdy Rooster. Forget everything you know about fried chicken--this is a…read morewhole different beast. ​I tackled the Big Rowdy with dark meat and that Hakka chili heat. It's an absolute unit of a sandwich. Replacing pickles and mayo with red onion and mint chutney? Mental. Chef is a straight-up genius for that one. ​Grabbed the mini samosas on the side and washed the fire down with a Thums Up. That soda hits way harder than a Coke--sharp, spicy, and high voltage. ​Shoutout to Eric for holding it down and helping me navigate the spice. The art is sick and the vibes are high. ​If you're tired of the same old bird, come get punched in the face with some actual flavor. This isn't just lunch; it's a heavyweight bout.

    New York has no shortage of burger joints, but an Indian burger spot? It was a first for me, and…read moreRowdy Rooster made sure it was a memorable one. A classic NYC hole-in-the-wall, this place is almost designed to be missed. Blink, check your phone, or dodge one too many pedestrians, and you've walked right past it. Try not to, it's worth the stop. Pricing sits a little on the higher side for a combo, but let's be honest - this is New York. The burgers are bold, satisfying, and built to impress. I went for the chicken and veggie sandwiches, both dressed with a mango lime sauce that genuinely were very flavorful. The tomato aioli on the side was another win. And the fries? Crispy, golden, and dusted with a Cajun-meets-Indian spice blend that somehow makes complete sense and zero sense at the same time - in the best way. Rowdy Rooster is a must-visit: come ready for real Indian heat and flavor.
