Wanted to come here for a while . Very laid back inside - clean - bright . I ordered the three piece with 2 sides Greg got the three chicken tenders with one side . We ordered the chicken spicy and it was just the right heat for us . Juicy and very good . The cashier was very friendly and accommodating. The manager ( I think ) was very nice - checking on us making sure we were enjoying our food . Very nice . read more

I'm genuinely surprised to see such ratings for Indi's Chicken. I went in expecting a simple, no-frills spot serving good old-fashioned fried chicken and classic sides. That sounded great to me. Unfortunately, the food, portions, and pricing were all disappointing. A three-piece chicken meal with two sides runs around $13-$14, and the pieces are small. Two of my three pieces were very small drumsticks. The meal doesn't include a drink, and if you just want water, you have to buy a bottle. The sides also come in very small portions. I ordered the 3 piece spicy chicken with baked beans and potato wedges. The seasoning on the chicken had a decent flavor, but it wasn't spicy at all. The bigger issue was that the chicken was extremely dry. The larger piece of fried chicken was especially bad, there was barely any meat in it. Most of it was over-fried, hardened breading surrounding a lot of empty space. I kept biting into thick, crunchy breading and air while trying to find actual chicken. The baked beans were fine but nothing notable. I did like the potato wedges, which were probably the best part of the meal. You get three as a side, but they are at least fairly large. There are also several extra costs that add up. Sauces are sold separately, the meal doesn't include a drink, and there's an additional 3% charge if you don't pay with cash. All in all, I really don't understand the high ratings. You can get better fried chicken at plenty of fast-food restaurants, or even from Walmart or Publix, for less money, with larger portions and more options. Even if you're specifically looking for a no-frills local chicken spot, this doesn't feel like a good value. You pay more, get less, and, based on my visit, the quality isn't there. I definitely wouldn't recommend it. read more

I D is one of my favorite spots to eat in Clearwater. The restaurant is spotless. The food is always hot, and delicious. Their chicken comes in spicy, or regular and and it is some of the best I have eaten... They serve a chicken breast, the keel, which is the boneless breast with only the one piece of cartilage in the center I have never seen that served before and it was really good. You don't have to pick through the bones if you don't want to like with a normal chicken breast... The owner is very nice, and his restaurant is a welcome addition and change from the normal fast food franchises that you find on Gulf to Bay boulevard... read more

Absolute perfection! The service, location, spicy chicken and house made hot sauce were 10/10. Clean, fresh and delicious! Highly recommend read more

Not really sure if it was actually good or just edible. Let me preface this by saying I ordered through a delivery app, so it took a bit longer to get to me and wasn't as fresh or crispy as advertised. I'll definitely try it again at the restaurant soon because the flavors themselves weren't bad. I love the sweet potatoes! read more

I drive by this place everyday when I go to lunch. I didn't have anything planned for lunch so I stopped in. Odered a 3 piece tender meal to go. You get a roll and 1 side. I opted for mashed potatoes. None of it was good and it was EXPENSIVE. I paid $12.30 for a terrible "meal" The tenders that they "fry fresh" were dry and bland, we're talking ZERO flavor. When i say they were dry, I mean they were hard to swallow. I could tell that they use real potatoes in their mash, but very few. Very runny and the gravy just tasted funky. Hard pass on a return visit from me. read more

This is a unique mom and pop fast chicken restaurant and I like it. I went there for lunch one day because I wanted fried chicken and I wanted it a little spicy. Glad I went here! They have regular and mild but I went with the spicy. I also got the potato wedges, which were yummy! They have a lot of sides that are more southern style or Island style as well. I also like that they had an interesting soda brand with different flavors. Staff was also very nice and went the extra step to bring an older guy his order to his table. I will definitely be back! read more

The chicken was fresh and crisp. The meat was juicy and flavorful. Even had some the next day and the crunch remained would definitely recommend and would go back in a heartbeat. It's a not miss little hole in the wall than everyone should visit! And don't forget the sides that pair perfectly read more

My first experience at Indi's restaurant was absolutely delightful! The restaurant space is bright, airy, and clean - just what you need in a quick take-out or dine-in spot! I ordered a two-piece meal for a midday lunch (dark meat is my preference) which came with a side of green beans and a dinner roll. The best part was getting a chance to sample a spicy chicken wing before deciding to order the regular chicken. I decided the spicy chicken was too spicy for my mouth (unless I'm having wine...if there's wine, we good). I ordered the regular chicken and it was ultimately crispy and finger-licking delicious! The mac n cheese is on point and with a little bit of salt, the green beans are just what the doctor ordered. The best part - teacher/veterans/first responders with appropriate ID get a 10% discount!! I'm a teacher so the discount is mucho appreciated. I wish more businesses offered this!! Love this local Clearwater spot and can't wait to go back! read more

Small storefront chicken restaurant in Clearwater right on Gulf to Bay (us. 60). Greeted by very friendly employees, who were able to help this first timer with suggestions for a filling lunch of Fried Chicken, fried Okra and mashed potatoes an gravey. The food was brought out to us on trays, and it was very good. Fresh, crispy not greasy fried chicken, and delicious side orders. Not fancy, but a good place to find fried chicken of the old style with real bones inside. Highly recommend it! read more

Delicious catfish and mixed greens. I plan on another visit to try more items. My spouse raved about the BBQ brisket.

I love spicy food and I grew up with Indi's in Louisville for a good snack try wedges and hot bbq sauce If don't like spicy food this is not the place for you. Peach cobbler always good. And wash it down with a Big Red read more

The food is always good. However, Sydney needs to learn active listening skills a 10 piece family meal from a 18 piece is wild. Instead of making googly eyes pay attention. I let it go and just passed some out but sheesh.. then no napkins or silverware for a family meal is crazy work. read more

Fantastic chicken at a great price. Service was great. Really enjoyed it. Will certainly be back often. Highly recommend

I can see why they're the #1 chicken spot in Clearwater! They are serving up some tasty and crunchy chicken with a large variety of side options! Staff was super friendly and it was really big and clean inside! read more

I was in the mood for wings and saw Indi's on Yelp. Note to drivers, turn at the first street after Arby's! One of the first things I noticed when I entered Indi's is it didn't smell like fried food and everything was so clean and bright. The staff was super friendly and patient in me taking my time to order as this was my first visit. I ordered the 16-pc spicy wings and it was everything I was craving. The wings were crunchy, not greasy or salty or heavily breaded, and had the right spice to it. The price is affordable and the wings were fresh. I'll be back. If you haven't tried Indi's, what are you waiting for? read more

Delicious catfish. Good corn meal batter. Crunchy moist chicken. We had the following sides: greens, Mac n Cheese, and baked beans. All really good. They also have a section on the menu called extras. We ordered fried okra. Fresh lightly battered. Family owned business that was started in Kentucky. So good. Give it a try. read more

Very good fried chicken. I wanted one breast and one thigh, but they did not have any spicy breasts so I got two thighs. I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed the two thighs. Nicely spiced, not too mild and not too hot! Nice greeting with a big smile by the young woman handling the orders. This was my first time and I will be back! read more

My wife saw this new place on a facebook page and wanted to go check it out. I like some good fried chicken so off we went. Walked in on a weekeday evening and checked out the menu. Its your typical fried chicken menu with a choice of spicy or regular. They have some unique sides like sweet potatos like you would eat during Thanksgiving. Their fries are large wedges that are breaded with the same stuff as the chicken. Very good fries. Their chicken is super moist on the inside with a crispy notable crunchy skin. The spicy chicken actually was made with hot sauce. You can see the orange color when you pull the skin apart. Way better than popeyes spicy. The people working there were super nice and helpful. I know where ill be going whenever i want fried chicken. This place is the best fried chicken ive had in a while. This place shouod get super popular once people find out about it and try it. I love supporting a small business vs a corporate chicken company and especially when the food slaps! (Slaps means its awesome. I learned this term from some kids. Lol) read more

I saw an ad for 10 drums/thighs for $10 on TUESDAYS at this newer place, so I went to their website to check it out. I was a little skeptical when it said "spicy" chicken, but read on to see that they also offered "mild", which is more to my taste. I gave them a call to pre order, but their line was consistently busy, so I went back to their page for contact info. I emailed them on the chance that there might be someone on the ball checking it and placed my order with contact information. Rob (owner/manager) called me back within 10 minutes to confirm and I drove over to pick up my order. The order was fresh out of the fryer and still very hot by the time I got home 15 minutes later. The chicken was juicy, crispy, and perfectly seasoned, with just enough coating. Big, meaty pieces! They also offer sides, but I was just interested in the chicken. I will be checking it out again to try some sides. Highly recommend. read more

Staff very nice and accommodating. Only a few customers there when we went but we waited a very long time for our food. I got chicken and my husband got a fish sandwich. My chicken was okay but hubby said his fish was not. read more

I finally got a chance to try Indi's Chicken. This place is brightly colored and clean. The staff were super friendly and patient as I had a lot of questions. They serve Halal BBQ Beef Brisket, Fried chicken, fish and shrimp. I got the BBQ Beef Brisket, which was tossed in a delicious tangy Spicy BBQ sauce. It was not spicy for me but was super flavorful. I also got some savory Mac and Cheese. The portions are generous, as well. They also have a Helping Hands wall where people can pay for a meal, for someone in need, and the receipt is taped to the wall to be used by a hungry and needy person, no questions asked. I loved this idea of helping others. I will be back soon, to try their famous fried chicken and fish. This place is one of my new favorites. read more

I went to Indi's Chicken at 7:30 pm on a Saturday night and tried to order a snack box of spicy breast and wing and was told that they only had spicy wings and regular breast. They were unwilling to cook some chicken fresh. This is an hour and a half before they close! I also want to order a keel but was informed they stopped carrying keel at this restaurant. The keel was the reason I went to this restaurant plus the high reviews given by a Facebook blogger. I recommend going somewhere else for chicken as this restaurant does not know what customer service is! read more

The spicy chicken was flavorful, spicy, and hot as in temperature. I didn't understand how the chicken felt like it was fresh out the grease and it was sitting under the light when we walked in. The mashed potato I had were good next time I'll ask for light gravy. Service was great as was. read more

Supposing restaurant. I thought it was going to be a simple chicken restaurant. I was surprised at the chicken meals, strips, seafood and BBQ. The sides were more of a southern offering with greens, bbq bean, Macaroni salad or macaroni cheese and fried okra. All was very good. They make their own sauces. Do get their hot sauce. It really adds to the meal. read more

I tried Indi's because I love spicy chicken. I ordered their 3 piece spicy dinner with 2 sides and a sweet tea. The sides I ordered were mashed potatoes with gravy and green beans. The potatoes were homemade as was the turkey gravy, I liked them both. The green beans were canned but I enjoyed them also, they had onions added. The chicken was awesome and had a great spicy flavor. Hot enough to make my nose run a little but not crazy hot, totally enjoyable. I also tried their homemade hot sauce which was great. I really enjoyed the meal and will be back for more! read more

Disappointed I had enjoyed my first visit to Indi's and looked forward to my return. Unfortunately, the luster is off that bloom. The chicken had a heavier crust and when I pulled it off the underneath part of the crust was barely cooked flour. The mashed potatoes were heavy and bland. And the green beans lost the flavorful brightness that they had before. How sad. read more

Everything would have been perfect; flavor was great but way too much salt was used on the chicken and greens. I really hope they fix that problem because I would love to recommend this place to people I work with. read more

I am happy to see that Indi's is finally open. We wanted to try them as soon as the sign went up. We got the spicy chicken, which had a seasoned great and the spice level wasn't too high. The mash potatoes were creamy and buttery, the coleslaw was delicious. Personally I wasn't a big fan of the gravy, but my husband enjoyed it. I also picked up a small hot BBQ sauce to try and was great. The sauce would be good on some pulled pork and or ribs too. The ladies were friendly and quick and can't wait to go back and try all of the other sides that are offered. They had some good music and Clearwater is lucky to have them. We'll be back! read more

Food is amazing, staff is friendly and location always clean! Love the spicy chicken and the array of veggies.

Tied for absolute BEST fried chicken in Florida. I had the mild chicken and potato log. The chicken was tender and juicy in the middle with an unforgettable crunch on the outside. Best flavored crust ever. Potato logs were crispy on the outside and fluffy tender on the inside. read more

Can't believe it took me so long to find Indi's! Took my Dad in for lunch and we were both blown away by the food, hospitality, and pricing. The spicy chicken was not too spicy and was unbelievably tender with an awesome crispy breading. The best fried chicken we've ever eaten! The mac and cheese was not your usual cheese sauce poured over macaroni, it was the real deal. The greens were tender and very flavorful. The owner/operator, Robert, was extremely nice and took the time to answer questions and tell us their story. He and his sister are related to the founder of Indi's and were excited to open an Indi's in the Tampa Bay area after spending many years as an educator/principal in Hillsborough county. Indi's will be our go to for boat chicken from now on! read more
