It was the very last day for this place to be open. You see the entire mall is closing forever. There was a long line as expected. Why? Because it's darn good fried chicken and so are the fresh cut fries. The chicken is brined and double fried making it crispy and delicious and we got the hot honey sauce. It was juicy and perfectly crispy and the tender portions were huge. Easy enough to share with your partner. But hey, good news. Just because the mall is gone doesn't mean they are. Yup, they are relocating to North Portland. I gotta say that I just discovered this place and need to swing the new location when it opens in a few weeks and get more fried chicken. read more

Definitely the best fried chicken and French fries around. The honey hot tenders are awesome along with the drums. The bread at the bottom is king! Service is fast and friendly, and just all around a great experience. It's in the Lloyd Center, but well worth the trip! Definitely gotta eat here! read more

For being located at the Lloyd center which is pretty dead, this place had a line so it must be good! The menu is limited but I think that is a good thing. They had wings or tenders and I did not see any option to only do them ala carte so I assume they all include fries. I had the 3 piece tenders with hot honey but they didn't give me the hot honey, just hot sauce and by the time I noticed I didn't want to go back. But the chicken was good. It was def fresh chicken and it was good, but I really didn't enjoy it without a dip or the hot honey. The fries are fresh cut and I think they might need to be either cooked longer or at a higher heat to give them some crisp. But I don't think people come here for the fries. Oh and there was a surpise piece of white bread sprinkled with some sort of cheese. I don't usually eat white bread but had a few bites and it was pretty tasty. Overall it wasn't a bad place at all. The guys frying the chicken were really friendly when they called your number. I will note that I took photos of the menu and can't believe how food prices have literally DOUBLED in 5 years. Their older menu photos has 3 tenders or 3 wings for $6 snd now they are $12! I will upload the newer prices so other don't think the $6 menu is still going. read more

One of the best fried chicken places in Portland is, surprisingly, in the Lloyd Center food court. This place cooks the chicken to order so it'll be hot and crispy when you get it. The hot honey is a tasty vinegary hot sauce. The mild sauce is a bbq flavor. If you don't mind eating in an empty food court, check this place out. read more

Wings and Tenders spot. Pick a basket with one of those and choose spicy (hot honey) or not. Prices are about $3 per tender. They do baskets here starting off with 3 pieces + fries. Personally, I wish I could just get the chicken without it being a forced combo as I don't always want fries. Price is fair. Flavor is good. Tenders were cooked nice, relatively juicy and the mild was slightly spicy and coated with some spices. Ambience = Lloyd Center food court. It's still kept clean so not any particular issues w that. read more

Wow! Just wow! I was looking for food before getting on the road back to Seattle and found this gem! Service was amazing, spot was clean, and the music had the vibe just right! Make sure you go and try them out. I will be back next time I'm in Portland!!! read more

I almost passed on dining here because of its location--in the center of a dying mall. However once I turned the corner and saw LoRell's Chicken Shack, the reviews truly made sense. Inside of this 15% operating mall is one of THE BEST chicken spot I've had in a while. And they were selling out fast. The hot honey wings are a must-try, and the warmth of the owner, Darrell, really made the visit feel like home. I will always support businesses that give their customers Grade A service. Thank you for allowing to dine here and I wish you much success in the future! read more

LoRell's Chicken Shack - 5/5 We had the wings, tenders, and fries and everything was . The food was fresh, hot, and packed with flavor--clearly made to order. The wings were perfectly seasoned, the tenders were juicy with a great crunch, and the fries hit the spot. While the location isn't the most convenient and I wish they had more drink options, those are small trade-offs for how good the food is. Definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for quality fried chicken. I'll be back for sure! read more

LoRell's has been on my list for a while, so glad we finally got to check it out! These folks have given Lloyd's food court a new vibe, the music was flowing throughout the whole floor; we even brought our dessert up to enjoy. The hot honey was perfectly balanced, not too spicy and the fries were great. The wings were super crispy, can't wait to try the whole chicken next! read more

LoRell's Chicken Shack - Hot honey wings & Fresh Cut Fries - Chicken Wings Near Me - Portland, Oregon

This is the craziest review I've ever written here. LoRell's is, as others have mentioned, one of the few holdouts in a dying mall. We entered at the far end, and we almost gave up before making our way up to what's left of the food court. Then, hearing that LoRell's was blasting music so loud that it was almost impossible to place our order, we almost gave up again. But... I'm glad we persevered. For twenty bucks we got eight hot honey wings and fried with two drinks. The wings and fries were incredible. Super fresh, super hot, and super tasty. A strange experience, but worth the effort! read more

4.5 stars, if I could choose that. it was much better than just GOOD. My wife shared a video about this spot, I think was on the local news. We are happy they shared it. The story was about a dead mall but with great fried chicken. They were right, and it wasn't all dead. It was my first time in the Loyd Center Mall. I was expecting a ghost town. There were a lot of people in there, and shops open too. Anyways, back to the chicken. We were starving, and fading fast... this brought us back to life! And put a smile on our faces. Thanks LoRell's! They have tenders, someone needs to post a current menu. I was worried they only had wings, that is not the case. We got mild tenders with fries. They were really great, flavorful crispy, moist and the best part not greasy at all. I'm not really sure how they did that. It's impressive. They came with BBQ sauce, which was very good. They also have hot honey, which I love and will be getting next time. The cook and the owner (who walked by the seating area and asked if everything was good) were friendly. We will be back, and are glad they seem to be doing well, with many people arriving to order food. One suggestion/request would be ranch sauce. Oh, and I forgot to mention, the fries are fried very dark. They seem to be real fresh cut fries. They were good, a little more crispy would be even better. One last thing to mention, everything was very very hot, in a good way. Nothing sitting under a lamp. I love hot fried chicken. We got some Jamaica to drink next door at the latino shop, a great combo. Come give them some business and keep the small local food businesses alive! Would Nashville hot chicken be an option???? If not, that's ok. I'm not sure where they are from, but I will say they did put the chicken on a piece of white bread. That is so close to some hot chicken, wink wink. Ha Keep up the great food! read more

I wish I could give them ten stars. They serve the freshest hottest most flavorful chicken I have ever had. It's always moist fresh steaming, hot and very enjoyable. The owners of this business are spectacular people.They go above and beyond to make sure that you are happy with your food. It happens to be a little food place in the mall, so the ambiance is depending on the atmosphere of the mall. read more

FIRE. DELICIOUS. AMAZING. SO GOOD. LoRell's Chicken is outstandingly delicious. Great flavor and great crunch! We've been to LoRell's when it was located in a food pod. Now it's located on the 3rd floor of Lloyd's Center (food court area). This chicken is cooked from the soul. So much flavor, juicy and a great crunch! We cannot wait to come back, whenever we are in Portland! The owner is such a good vibe! This place is a must if you are local or even visiting! Cannot recommend LoRell's Chickn shack enough! Go get you some chicken! read more

Came here and got some of the fried chicken. Absolutely amazing, and their fries are good. Huge open space, super friendly customer service.

Let down by this place :( Was excited to try after the raving reviews online, but was disappointed. The chicken and fries came piping hot, but the tenders and wings weren't super crispy, and the insides weren't super moist. We also tried both sauces, but didn't enjoy the mild sauce and the hot honey sauce just tasted like buffalo sauce. Maybe they had an off day, but you can find better tenders and wings elsewhere, and at a better price point as well. read more

Man I can't believe how good this chicken was. Juicy, super flavorful and hot! I really hope they never get shut down and Lloyd center stays afloat for a long time. Make sure you scan the QR code at the front counter to keep Lloyd center alive! I got the hot honey tenders and they were so incredible I will be back to try the wings. Also the fries are good (similar to wingstop or five guys fries but even better) and the prices are great! People working here are wonderful as well. read more

Meh, not sure if quality has declined recently but I don't really get the hype. The chicken wings were decent but nothing different than I'd expect at ur average sports bar. And the hot honey sauce tasted like a store bought buffalo sauce, neither hot nor honey. The fries had the potato skins on which I'm not a fan of and weren't crispy enough. And it is in the dying Lloyd center mall & they have no beer, & I need some beer with my chicken wings of course. Not terrible but no reason for me to go back. read more

Moving from an area in which Canes is commonly found, it's been difficult to adapt to an area that lacks decent chicken tenders. After searching, I found this spot. The only downside, is the location, as they're on the third floor of the Lloyd center. I was anticipating a food truck but I'm not disappointed, just found myself lost initially. Nonetheless, these strips were cooked to perfection with a delicious crunchy shell topped with what seemed to be a citrusy seasoning. I absolutely love it! And not to mention their house sauce that is worth dipping every ounce of this chicken in. The fries are crispy and cooked almost as perfectly as the chicken. I certainly see myself returning ... as I already have... and with friends! I suggest you do the same :) read more

Some of the best fried chicken in the pacific northwest! Crispy, juicy, and sauced to perfection. Go for the Hot Honey. You won't regret it!

Really great chicken... from one of the nicest people you could ever meet! We were going to be driving, so I asked him if the strips were as good as the wings, and he told me "It's all great!" with a huge smile. Well, absolutely then, an order of chicken strips with the honey hot sauce it would be. He assured me that it was hot enough to be tasty, but not so hot as to make you sweat or anything challenging like that. He was right on all counts! I've really never had chicken strips like this... delightfully crispity chrunchity, lightly glazed in a honey hot sauce and then something else, is it cheese, I dunno, sprinkled over it. Oh, this was wonderful, really wonderful and, despite being all white meat, was not dry at all. The flavors all really popped and made this the kind of experience where you are like "what is that? Yum!" But the real 5-star business has to come from the extra generous and loving personality of the owner. My goodness! Most times I am there, he is walking about, checking on customers to make sure they are happy, saying hello to everyone, his customers or not, even giving out hugs to those of us so lucky. He has become something like the ambassador of this cart pod! And, as such, I need to ask you for something, Portland. Good food. Wonderful guy. We WANT to keep this around and here comes Winter and all that weather that can drive a cartster right into the ground. Lorelle's is right by the parking, so you can eat at the covered tables, inside the bar (you don't need to order a drink to sit there), or even in your car. So, please, please, help keep this wonderful business BUSY. He deserves it and we don't want to lose him and his wonderful chicken! read more

Good but, falls short of great. The chicken tenders I got were nice and juicy which was awesome. And that sweet and spicy sauce was awesome. I just wish it was crispier. It was more flakey than crispy. I like to bite into a thick amount of breading and get that crunch. The fries were similar. They were fresh, but weren't very crispy. I wish they were crispy. read more

Question: Could this place be as good as reviews. Answer: YES! An absolute gem of a "Chicken Shack" located in the Food Court at Lloyd Center. I got the 5 Chicken Tenders, Fries and honey sauce, and I don't believe I've ever had better chicken in my life, and the fries were crispy and fresh. Portions sizes are huge, so expect leftovers. The two dudes running the place were very cool, too. They were busy, so we wandered after we ordered. When we came back a few minutes later, they made eye contact from across the food court, pointed at us and then our order, then said "thanks for your business, we appreciate it!" We'll definitely be back to try the wings. read more
