The food was great and full of flavor. The service was very professional and pleasant. The establishment was small, but very neat and tidy. This is a Hillside NJ best kept secret. read more

Food and Services are Excellent seasoned Well Vegtables crunchy .My Second time ordering ,a great Experience

One of the hidden gems in Hillside Township. Grilled Chicken Palace offers some of the best comfort & soul food. They put their own spin on a number of standard dishes, such as fried chicken, or shrimp w/pasta, but there's way more to their menu. Their cakes are AMAZING! Their cornbread....AMAZING-ER! A small spot very easy to overlook, but this small location packs a big punch. If you like Soul Food, &/or Comfort Food, add this place to your list. FYI- They do NOT accept credit/debit. They accept cash & have an ATM on site, CashApp, or Zelle, & their menu items can be a bit pricey depending on what you get. read more

This place continues to wow me I'm surprised I didn't review it before. I've never ordered anything from here that wasn't good. Now I will say that the ordering process is different due to Covid you have to find their daily menu on the owners Facebook page which was a little annoying because I kept seeing older menus that weren't available for the day. I ordered the wrong thing twice that was not being made for the day. My friend had difficulties ordering as well I think they need a website to make it easier. Other than that the food is delicious and the prices are reasonable. They used to make this pasta with lobster and shrimp and salmon it was phenomenal hope they bring it back. read more

Positives: ordered delivery and it was delivered timely and packaged well. Negatives: spent quite a bit on food here and we only ate the pasta and shrimp. Chicken looked horrid and bland, rice okay and veggies over cooked. This spot missed the mark in terms of favor profiles. I would not recommend this place. Save your money and try somewhere else or better yet, cook your own food. read more

Absolutely delicious, quick delivery and the grilled vegetables and chicken were awesome

My food is always fresh, tasty and hot. The portions are adequate and I just love their special sauce. read more

I was doing a pick up for Uber eats when I came across this business. The food smelled and looked so good! I had to try it. The owner was kind enough to give me a sample & I purchased right away! Definitely going to be ordering more! read more

Grilled Chicken Paradise always hit the spot! I have tried everything over the years. The Sexy 1 (substitute Tilapia with Salmon) and Sexy 2 dishes are my favorite. The Jerk Chicken and Apples over rice is also very delicious. read more

I was devastated when this business decided to close during quarantine. About a month in they decided to do pop-up openings with a predetermined menu. I've never been more grateful for local delicious foods. Then they offered a family platter with the most amazing lobster tails I've ever had in life. It was $60 for the platter and was enough food to feed my family of four (although there were only two lobster tails, there was ample shrimp included). It's hands down the best dish but I've never had anything that wasn't delicious. read more

First time coming here. I'll definitely be back!!!! Delicious!!! Cajun Shrimp and Crab Alfredo. read more

I was in the area visiting family @ my best raved about this place, the service was quick and portions were large. The food was too heavy and greasy for my taste. read more

Very good food, and welcoming staff! If this were a full blown restaurant... I know where id spend my Saturday evenings.

The place looks a bit worn down but the service was nice. They don't accept cards but they do have a cash app option. Cool. The lady offered me free samples but seemed to be rushing me since it was close to closing time. I ordered the salmon and noodles, it was good, just needed some Old Bay. They also have really good potatoes stuffed with meat or seafood. read more

Been meaning to check out the place for the longest and finally found the opportunity today before I start eating clean again. This was definitely the perfect cheat meal. FYI, the restaurant is best suited for takeout. I would like to begin my review my saying the service here was great! Upon entering the first thing they asked was if it was my first time there and then proceeded to give me multiple samples that got my taste buds jumping. Based on the samples alone the potato salad, pineapple jerk and pink lemonade are not to slept on. I was more so looking to try their seafood dishes and the server recommended pretty much all the ones they had but at end said the Sexy I & II were the way to go on the first round. I went with the Sexy I which was a tilapia, shrimp and scallop white sauce pasta dish and cornbread. The pasta was very tasteful.. a little disappointed the linguine was broken up so much. Overall, my experience here was great and will be back. read more

Grilled Chicken Palace - Sexy I - $13.95 + taxes - New American Near Me - Hillside, New Jersey

Awesome little takeout joint in the heart of hillside ! I traveled 20 mins to try their chicken and it was so worth it . The staff was very nice and let me sample some of their signature items . I ordered the teriyaki chicken wrap and the sweet / spicy salmon pasta . The wrap was super flavorful and the chicken had an authentic teriyaki sauce . A little messy to eat in the car, but I managed lol. The salmon pasta mini meal was delicious as well . The salmon was cooked perfectly and the sauce was true to its description ., kind of like a sweet and sour style . I will definitely be back ! read more

I have been following on Instagram for a while and finally decided to order. My family who are extremely picky eaters loved their food. I ordered Buffalo wings, fish with greens,yams and mac and cheese, chicken parm and the salmon and shrimp in a cajun sauce. The portions were generous and the packaging was everything.Nothing spilled or leaked. Make sure you order a slice of cake. I got the yellow cake with chocolate icing which is my fav. I ordered 2 one for me and one for my daughter. I didn't tell her about it and ate both. dont judge me lol Definately will order again. read more

My husband loves this place... me, not so much. The food, both platters and plates, are more than generous. The meat is cooked and seasoned well too. I don't know if it's because it's oily, but each time I've eaten here the food was just too "heavy" for my stomach. I've tried different things too! I've had their lobster, shrimp, steak and chicken. My friends rave about this place, that's how I discovered it. I however just can not. My kids will eat it, as mentioned before, my husband loves it too (a part of the reason for the high star) but there's simply something about it that literally doesn't sit well with me. read more

I'm the type of person who doesn't mind traveling far to eat good food, whether it's at a full service restaurant, a grease truck, or a small neighborhood eatery like the Grilled Chicken Palace. Little traveling is needed as this little gem is not that far from me. Palace Chicken Combo (Mango Chicken + Palace Chop Chicken w/ White Sauce + Salad All Over Rice) ($18....) (A-): I never order "sweet entrees," but the mango chicken (with real slices of mango) was one of my favorite items today. It goes well with the yellow rice and isn't too sweet. The grilled chicken with white sauce was a must have for me; the white sauce is light and herby, while the chicken itself was well seasoned. The slaw consisting of squash, cucumber, cabbage, broccoli, and carrots had a peppery kick to it. More importantly, the vegetables were crispy and fresh. We also ordered the special (Grilled Teriyaki Chicken Stirred w/ Vegetables ($8.95)), which was similar but with teriyaki instead. Corn Bread Muffin (A+) ($0.60): Let me say it now...this was--hands down--the best corn bread muffin I've ever had. It's perfectly moist, slightly sweet, and has real corn in each bite! The half that the owner let us try was all I needed to buy two for the road. Service (A+): No amount of stars or a letter grade can show how friendly everyone here is--from the owner to even other customers, this little eatery will make you feel welcomed. It isn't just the many free samples the owner gives out. She's friendly, inviting, and really wants you to try her cooking. The portions were great with the takeout aluminum pan and take out box being filled to the top. It's not fancy, but this places serves a variety of dishes that you would expect to order at a full service restaurant. There are a few stools and a corner bar table for you to eat in, but for the most part, it's a takeout type of place. Even though parking is a bit tough, I'm coming back for more, especially for the seafood dishes. read more

Their food is a real treat, as long as we don't want to accomplish any work at all for the next three hours! I've been stopping in at Palace since Miss J opened her store about 5/6 years ago. I sell Nissans in the area, so sometimes we need to branch out for a more satisfying lunch. We love the sexy 1 and the sexy sea, one is salad based with a great mix of tilapia, shrimp, corn etc... The other is a rich creamy sauced up pasta with a similar ocean blend. The cream sauce drizzled Palace chicken with its rice n beans and homemade slaw with veggies is a fantastic stand by. read more

Place has very good eats. Everything is flavorful. I've never been to a place where they offer you free samples if you're new or if you're tryin Gn something that you are unsure of getting. The only thing that I dislike is that they, like most places, use dark meet for their special chicken items, however try have whole pieces of white meet selection as well. I will cottoned to go to this place for take out as their food is always a delight to eat. read more

Well definitely won't be returning here NEVER!!!!Spoke with the owner some lady who obviously had a problem because I wrote a review, & told me maybe she wld have given me new food if I didn't...I said,ma'am you don't have to you just lost a customer with her smart ass mouth read more

Potato salad and yams were good. The collards were interesting and had a sweetness to it if that's your thing. Fish lack flavor and season. Mac and cheese was very blah and basic. The shrimp was heavily breaded and didn't taste like shrimp at all. The shrimp also has this off putting texture and taste maybe because it wasn't fresh shrimp I'm not sure. read more

So I walked in so excited to try the seafood potato my family raved about .was instantly greeted by an older Queen. I explained the dish. After an hour drive I was sadly informed that the seafood potato was a special once a month. Sadden by this news , well I was sick and discouraged but, the lovely Queen from an island asked if it was my first time and offered me samples. I thought that was a nice touch to the business because most places you have to just pray what you pick is tasty. What she offered me was lit! I ended up ordering the Sweet chili shrimp & tilapia with rice and veggies! I will definitely recommend this place and will be returning again to try their seafood potato ! read more

The food is ok, but this place can be a little pricey depending on what you get. The Haitian lady with the thick eyebrows is a different type of rude and is the reason I will no longer frequent this restaurant. If you decide to eat here just brace yourself first. I recommend the Salmon, rice and peas, with veggies. read more

I wish I had found this place sooner! I'm working in the area, and I always try to find local places to eat. The food is beyond delicious! The portions are more than generous, and the prices are reasonable. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Parking is street parking where you can find it, and they only have 5 seats and a counter, so take out is recommended. Cash or cash app only, but they have an ATM if you need it. Highly recommended! read more

AWWW is all I can say, I had to run on a business errand with my colleague. So passing through Hillside I decided to stop at Chicken Palace as I heard so many complimenting things. I was greeted by a warm smile and asked was this my first time, I explained yes and she gave me a few samples of the special of the day (cajun chicken)my palette started to sing the food was hot and full of flavor. This will be a favorite for me and a frequently visited restaurant. Food really dances in your mouth read more

Grilled Chicken Palace - Yumm - New American Near Me - Hillside, New Jersey

I want to start this off by saying their food is great, BUT don't go to this place following their business hours always call. I tried to eat here twice in one day. Once for lunch, however they pushed their opening time back forcing me to select something else other than their food I was actually craving. No big deal I'll go for dinner, right? Wrong. They were closed a hour and a half before scheduled closing time. If the hours on google were wrong that would be one thing but the same hours are literally posted on their front door. Highly disappointing, if you're going to run a business be reliable at least. read more

I love their food and the customer service is always nice. I am sure through all these negative reviews they have grown and remove the bad to give you the great service they do today. Its the go too restaurant and you dont wait long. Its a little off balance now because they no longer accept cards but thats business and we have to adjust. I am a business man and I dont accept cards either. I would tell each and everyone of you to try them out and see what you think, I think they are excellent. The little corn breads are very good too. read more

Unassuming but warm and welcoming as soon as you arrive. The food is on point and the desserts are wonderful as well. This is a great takeout place and we shall definitely return again! Loved it! read more

This is my"go-too" place when Im indecisive. You are sure to find something to wet your palate. I don't know who bakes there cakes but that coconut pineapple cake was the BOMB!

YO! Listen to this Nupe!!! read more
