    Exterior, Sunday 5 November 2023.
    Tanis L.

    Coming to the Ezell's Famous Chicken location on Highway 99 in Edmonds today, Sunday 5 November 2023, I got dinner for myself and my parents, placing my order in-restaurant and getting my items to go. For myself, I got a chicken tender combo, which came with a dinner roll and my choice of side (I went with slow baked BBQ beans) and my choice of sauce (I went with the homemade bleu cheese). For my parents, I got the 4 piece combo, which came with dinner rolls and my choice of two sides (I went with the mashed potatoes and gravy and the creamy slaw). The worker taking/giving the order was warm and calm in demeanor. The interior of the restaurant was clean and homey in ambiance. Parking was a shared lot and surprisingly busy for my time of visit (about 4:15 p.m.). Navigating in and out from Highway 99 was straightforward and the signage was easy to spot from the road. My meal was delicious and my parents said theirs was as well. The meat of the chicken tenders was tender and easily pulled apart as I bit into it. Breading encasing the meat was crisp and flavorful. The slow baked BBQ beans were on the sweeter side and I found the sweetness continued to intensify as I ate them. For the sauce, it contained a fair amount of chunks of bleu cheese and had a good tang/zing to it. The dinner roll was light and fluffy with a refreshing milder sweetness. Everything paired well and was a filling meal.

    A place to get some fresh and delicious fried chicken fast. Staff is friendly, food is nice, restaurant is clean. I had to have the chicken right away in the car when my boyfriend went to Taco Bell to pick up his food because I didn't want to miss the crispiness of the fried chicken skin (that's the best part and I don't want to be friends with anyone who doesn't eat that skin), it would be a crime if I waited until home. I like the chicken here are always juicy, even for the most boring chicken breast, i ate half of the skin on the way home and dipped the rest plain chicken breast with siracha sauce. I was lucky enough to have a fresh roll that day too, it was soft and slightly sweet! Overall, it was a perfect comfort food for a raining Saturday!

    Spicy drums and thighs

    I lOVE THIS EZELLS!!!! The food is spot on every time. My favorite is getting the spicy drums and thighs set, it's not really that hot but in this case I think spices just means more flavor. It's amazing. The chicken is extremely soft and falls off the bone, after you eat the crispy skin of course. Honestly best fried chicken I've ever had. The rolls are freshly baked, and the mac and cheese and potato salad sides are phenomenal. I'll keep coming here always The service is extremely fast and always super friendly. Shoutout Beth, she's the fastest and kindest employee there. It's perfect for grabbing a quick lunch or sitting with friends in the booth style seating. It's super casual so anything in that realm would be great for this. Highly recommend! Fav fast but homemade tasting food

    This place is great. The chicken is so crispy but also tender on the inside. Food was very fresh. I feel like Ezell's famous chicken has a very distinctive taste for fried chicken. Which I enjoyed.

    Entrance near 220th/Hwy 99 (6/14/20)

    I noticed this new Ezell's Famous Chicken in Edmonds because of my visits to Woods Coffee two doors down. Despite my fondness of Heaven Sent over Ezell's, I decided to check it out (6/28/20). Last visit was for my niece's birthday request at the Lynnwood site, plus she favors these rolls. I still recall eating in my car at the original Ezell's on 23rd in Seattle ages ago. Enthusiastic and pleasant counter crew at this Edmonds location. Order was filled relatively fast. Once unpacked at home, huge pieces were arranged on a platter with the four rolls on another saucer. Chicken thigh and drumstick were crispy and still warm. Taste is subjective, for me there was too much breading. However, the chicken itself was moist and juicy. Needed more brining or seasoning though. Not much flavor, maybe next time select spicy instead. Chicken indie chain expands again in the northend. Same chicken favored both by Oprah and Guy Fieri. This corner of 220th and 99 in Edmonds with easy access from 99 or I-5...choices from Dick's burgers/shakes, Asian fare, Woods Coffee, and now Ezell's Famous Chicken!

I literally ate everything on my plate. Then we came back on a Saturday early evening. And the food tasted old. I noticed when I was checking my receipts on Saturday. The guy has said oh you don't have to tip because you're a huge party. When a party of six your tip is automatically included which is the 18%. and I was like oh wow we had six on Tuesday and I left a $25 cash tip. And he said although waiter should've told you it's automatically taken out and the 18% was already taken care of. And I was like no I handed the waitress $25 cash and she never said 18% was taken out and I didn't pay attention to my receipt cause I had children with me but then when I looked back in my car on Saturday night from Tuesday, I realize that she double charged me. So on Tuesday she got over a $50 tip. The waitress on Tuesday she was a Hispanic lady with dark black hair. She robbed me. So please be aware you're going with the party of six or more. They automatically take out 18% gratuity. And I did not like that because she should've told me that you don't have to leave cash. She knew my kids were crying and I was trying to yo leave and not distract the other guest. But on the positive note, the place is nicely decorated. And service is good. I just felt robbed, so for that fact I will never ever be coming back. If you were looking to try this place for the first time come early if you want hot fresh food. If you come later in the evening, the food does taste old.

I ordered PAC SOUTH omelette. No green onions, chose hash browns instead of toast and had side biscuit and gravy. Unfortunately the hash browns were really crackly dry. Maybe I should've had the red potatoes instead. The Omelette was surprisingly good. The sweetness of the pork with the bbq sauce was fascinating and tasty. If I had it again I'd ask to add a squirt of bbq inside or ask for more sauce on top. Hubby ordered the Shrimp and Grits. They were great and better than most places we've had them out. Hubby crumbled his side of bacon on top. They were Creamy, savory, cheesy and served piping hot. Jenny said sometimes people ask to add andouille sausage or catfish on top. Last - OMG that was a THICK biscuit! It was super dense. The gravy was delicious. But the biscuit takes up most the room on the plate. So my gravy to biscuit ratio was off. I still took half my omelet and half my biscuit in a to go box. Left the hash browns. They have BIG portions. Amazing atmosphere and service. If you come in from the front door there is a small counter seating area as well as booths and tables. Beyond that main room there is more space in the back. Keeping this place on the list for sure!!!
