We ordered a variety of spice levels, and even the mild had plenty of flavor despite not being very spicy. If the food was this good after delivery, I can only imagine how amazing it is fresh. I'll definitely be coming back to try it in person the next time I'm in New York! Get the fries!! Wish I got more pictures of the food but I was too hungry !!

Ok, I am not going to lie -- I have been wanting to try their chicken for the longest time but at…read morethe same time, in my opinion, they did not have the best visually esthetic chicken and so every time my colleague and I contemplated on getting it, we turned away. This time, we did not turn away. We finally made a good decision. We ordered the chili chicken leg and the salted egg yolk tenders. I personally preferred the leg over the tenders but it was not bad at all. I loved how rich the flavors were and how they were able to keep the crispiness despite having gotten it as takeout. We ordered it for delivery. Was kind of sad how long the delivery itself took but thankfully the food was still good. Although the cost was a little hefty in my opinion, the portion size was also very big. We were both stuffed. It's not a place I can go often since it's a very heavy meal, on both my wallet and my tummy. Next up, we are going to try their sandwiches!

I had the Claude sandwich with the chicken claw, and it was amazing. The claw doesn't have much meat, but it's super Instagrammable and a fun touch. The sandwiches themselves are fat, juicy, and insanely crispy--exactly what you want from fried chicken. Only downside? The sauces are $1 extra, and the portion is pretty small, which felt a bit steep. But if you do get one, make it the Money Sauce--a sweet honey drizzle that seriously elevates the sandwich. Would I order again? Absolutely. Just be ready to eat with napkins nearby--this is messy, indulgent goodness.

I've been wanting to check out Birdbox for a while for the claw attached to your chicken sando. If…read moreyou're coming here, you've probably seen it and here for that too. I was surprised to find that it's a ghost kitchen. You walk behind the coffee shop and order from a kiosk with many other restaurants to order from as well. My order took 15 minutes and within the estimated time frame that they gave you. Once my order was ready, I clicked to open via text and the locker popped open with my bag --viola! I ordered the Claude the Claw ($18.99) with medium spicy sauce on the side. The sandwich is pretty huge. I like how they wrapped the sandwich around the claw sticking out from the bottom. I did take it out of the wrapper for the picture, but suggest you keep the wrapper on as it gets messy to eat. The spices and flavor is delicious and the chicken is crispy and tender. It's a great Nashville hot chicken sandwich overall. While the claw is insta-worthy, it's not quite worth the extra $4 (plus you can't really even eat it, so it's all for show). I'd suggest getting the claw for your first time, but I'd get the regular sandwich in the future for the lower price.

The meat, sauce, and pickles were all to my liking. The bread was just ok, it started crumbling at some point, so in the future I'd consider chicken without the bread. I got the mac and cheese and I just thought it was ok - kind of grainy, which surprised me because others on yelp spoke highly of it. Maybe it was just an off night. I'd return but I'd switch up my order.

I ordered the chicken tenders & fries which came with cole slaw and pickle slices. The chicken really was battered & fried to fluffy perfection!! It had a soft & unique texture I don't recall ever tasting before. The sides were also fantastic; fries were crispy hot, cole slaw was not too wet or too dry with excellent flavor and the pickle slices were refreshing after a bite of the medium-spice level chicken. And don't get me started on that sauce!! It was perfect for both the chicken & fries, I loved it! Definitely check this place out if you're a fried chicken connoisseur! :)

The space is very small, I don't know if there was a bathroom but expect a wait or tightness with seating. I still felt comfortable in the space though. I got the half chicken and shared sides.

My friend and I shared the full chicken with cucumber salad and fried pork dumplings on the side, and everything complemented each other well. The standout was the chicken itself tender to the point of falling apart, truly falling off the bone. What elevated it further was the Chinese spice blend, which carried deep, balanced flavor throughout every bite. At around $35 for a shared meal in Manhattan, it feels like strong value for the quality and portion size. Simple, satisfying, and confidently seasoned.

I ordered a takeout of chicken tenders, with medium spicy dry rub. The order was freshly made and it took less than 10 minutes to get my order.

Orders are made at the register as soon as you walk in, even for dine-in orders. I ordered grilled chicken with yellow rice and red beans and a side of sweet plaintains. The chicken was those flat, paper thin strips with grill marks all over. It was tender but not very flavorful. The yellow rice was good and the beans were fine. The sweet plaintains were the best part of my meal. They were cooked nice and brown and they weren't mushy at all. I asked for hot sauce. I was given a cold bottle of hot sauce from the fridge. The dipping sauce helped to give the chicken a little zing. Chicken Stop is a narrowly built restaurant with decent seating, dim lighting and fake grass walls. There was a large, flat-screen TV hanging from the fake grass wall, showing the news. The satellite music was an awful mix of soft rock and country/western. Menu prices are reasonable.
