    4 piece dark chicken, fresh bread rolls, mac & cheese, and kernel corns.
    Kelly L.

    Got lunch to go from Ezell's and ordered the 4-piece dark chicken with a fresh-baked bread roll, along with mac and cheese and kernel corn as our sides. Everything was tasty! The chicken was tender, flavorful, and not dry at all. The bread roll was soft and warm, and both sides were solid comfort food staples. Overall, it was a great meal. Nothing overly fancy, but definitely hits the spot when you're craving fried chicken.

    1/2 lb order of tender normally it 6-7 tender

    Always love Ezells chicken tender. This one in Wallingford Seattle rip off customer if they don't give tip more than 20%.. I order 1/2lb chicken tender and only got 4 tender. That's a kid meal. I normally tip $5 or $10 this was test to see how these guys do their service with basic tip of 20%. No longer going to that Ezell. I sticking to Garfield Seattle Ezell for now on. They always take care.

    I have been going to Ezell's in Wallingford for years and I fortunately have never had a bad experience. My family and I love their Spicy Chicken Tenders best which is a perfect match with those fresh-baked rolls. We also think their Cajun Fries are delicious... Whatever mix of seasoning they're using tastes so addictive!!! Their sides and sauces are good, too, especially their blue cheese sauce. Not to mention their yummy Peach Cobbler (not pictured) that Oprah famously once said she is a big fan of, lol. Takeout only at the Wallingford location, which has a convenient parking lot. Support a local small black-owned quality business and go to Ezell's. I hope your experience will be as positive as mine has been all these years.

    I just ordered from Ezell's and I ordered a pound of fried Gizzards and I never had gizzards from them before, BUT don't order this. It is way too chewy and you can't eat it due to that. I had to throw away more than 1/2 of that. I am glad to order a side of corn. Overall all not good lunch from them . Again this was a Lunchdrop.com delivery.

    Three piece tender $20

    Oh my God, so expensive and so terrible. Can I attach the pictures? The coleslaw was soggy. They charged me extra for the ranch dressing. I didn't get any fries. I got a shitty bun's used to be something but it's not anything anymore.

    After living in Seattle over 4 years, I finally tried Ezell's after driving by what seems like a million times. I ordered the 1/2 pound Half and Half Chicken Tenders with Blue Cheese and Coleslaw. I also ordered a side of Potato Salad. The Chicken Tenders were good but overcooked. Especially the original. They were quite chewy and a little rubbery. The original also lacks any kind of seasoning. The Spicy Tenders were slightly over cooked but much better than the original. I would order them again. The Homemade Blue Cheese is the star of the show, It was tangy and delicious 10/10. 4 Star review because of the fabulous Blue Cheese The Coleslaw was good. I would order it again. The roll was decent, nothing special. The Potato Salad was under seasoned and just bland. I would not order that again. While I didn't order it, Any restaurant that serves Pepsi wins me over. The young lady (Angelic) who waited on me was a delight. Over all I give it a 7.2/10. I would try it again in hopes the Tenders aren't overcooked.

    I'm curious what Ezell's chicken is famous for. After trying it out, it might be famous for being bland. I ordered the 2 pounds chicken tenders half original half spicy (about 14 tenders total). The dish comes with 4 rolls shaped like muffins and 2 large sides. The chicken tenders are bland and don't seem to have any seasoning but at least they're crunchy. The spicy isn't spicy at all. The rolls also have no flavor and I would prefer white toast over this. The corn and mashed potatoes were also bland. Skip out on Ezell's as everything is bland.

The fact that this is gluten free (which is fantastic for all GF folks in our family) is even more Amazing how they got everything right with the crunch and flavor. Potato skins and garlic rice were good too, though less garlic would have been better. Could easily make this into a garlic egg fried rice and larger portions. The staff were super attentive and took time to explain everything to first time visitors. Steady stream of take out orders as seating is limited. Would come back to try the other sides too. Happy to report no reaction for gluten free member of our family, top marks for safety.

I've had sandwiches, bowls, tenders, thighs and drums. They're all good. The sandwiches are the high point in my opinion - particular shoutout to the Slawsome and Hot Honey. They're big and messy but tasty. Can't go wrong with them, and I frequently can't help but order one. The bowls are powerful. I've had both kinds on different trips and they're hard to do in a single sitting, whereas sandwich + side is not. Just be warned. The sides are straightforward - what you see is what you get. They tend to be a little more basic, or classic if you will, than the sandwiches. I like this, since they serve as a side/counterpoint. We tend to get the slaw and pot of gold. The fries are the battered style which are very good and combo well with the rest of the menu. Takeout times tend to be accurate and the staff have been working hard but helpful every time we stop in. Most importantly they've been consistently good every time we go - and often during peak busy times, so that speaks well of their kitchen staff. Top marks all around. The move to the new spot didn't slow them down a bit, so make sure you check the address before going if you haven't been in a few months.

We had visited the Ballard location before they had moved to their new home. Stopped by the new location a few weeks ago. The new location is definitely in the sketchy part of Ballard, but it was nice to have a designated parking lot, rather than trying to find a street spot at the old location! My husband and I both ordered 3 tendies, in cayenne heat (level 2 spicy). Didn't seem spicy enough for my liking, so next time I am going to try the level 3! The chicken is delicious! It's crispy, juicy and flavorful. They offer a lot of sauces to choose from too. Although if you ask me, if you order any spicy level, the chicken doesn't need it! My husband is a dipper though and he likes his sauce. His fave is the Honey Mustard. (I opted for a garlic aioli. I love garlic but it was a little much). Since I was feeling like a comfort side, I selected the potatoes and gravy. (I have also had the fries and the macaroni and cheese). They have a good selection of sides. We love Cookie's chicken!

We've tried multiple flavors for the chicken, and all of them have been great! Hot Honey, Snow Onion, and Soy Garlic were great. You can skip the seasoning on the fries since the amount varies everytime. Drinks are canned. The restaurant itself is clean, but like many other restaurants on the ave, you get different service based on who you are. If you're not East Asian, other customers tend to stare at you. Service has also felt cold based on the server, and we noticed other parties, both larger and smaller, who arrived both before and significantly after us, receiving more attention and quicker service than us, even if they ordered more food. Overall the food is great so I'll push past that, but would be wonderful if all tables were treated equally.
