Here's your Yelp review cleaned up and ready to post: (3 stars) The place has a bit of a cozy vibe, but the tables were not clean and didn't seem well maintained. The food is a bit spicy and has a style from another country. It honestly feels like a copy of Raising Cane's, but for the same price the chicken pieces are smaller. I also asked to change my coleslaw, but they told me no, which was disappointing. Overall, it's okay, but there are definitely things they need to improve. read more

Some places are overhyped... and then there are places like The Crispy Chick that quietly overdeliver. Came in curious, left impressed. I started with the tenders, and they immediately set the tone..crispy, golden, and actually seasoned all the way through (not just relying on sauce to save them). Juicy on the inside, crunch that holds, and flavor in every bite. This is what people think they're getting at chain spots, but rarely do. Then came the sandwich & and this is where they really got my attention. Same perfectly fried chicken, layered on a soft, sturdy brioche bun that didn't fall apart halfway through. Balanced, flavorful, and clearly not an afterthought. If you're a sandwich person, don't skip it. The sauces? Worth exploring. They're not just there for decoration & they elevate everything. Now for the honest part: fries were solid, nicely seasoned, but not the highlight. And I wouldn't recommend delivery..this is a "eat it fresh or you're missing the point" kind of place. Service was quick and friendly, and the vibe is simple, no-frills, and focused on doing one thing really well. Final take: Cleveland has a lot of chicken spots, but this one stands out for flavor alone. It's giving underrated gem energy. Pro tip: go in, order both the tenders and the sandwich, grab extra sauce, and don't plan on sharing. Woman owned business as well & they give you a thank you card instructing you to contact the owner directly if there's anything wrong with your order. read more

This is one of my favorite "fast food" spots in the city when I'm craving chicken tenders. Think Canes except everything is seasoned very well. I always get the chicken strip meal with the house sauce and even the sauce is seasoned. Everyone taking orders and at the window are always super nice. If you go inside to order, you'll be impressed by how clean it is. This is a woman owned restaurant. I ordered a chicken wrap the other day and that was really good too. If you're in the area, you should stop by. You won't be disappointed. read more

This hidden gem is an absolute crowd-pleaser and easily one of the best spots in Cleveland for chicken lovers. Crispy Chick is a women- and minority-owned restaurant that delivers bold flavors and comfort food done right. The chicken is always fresh, never frozen, made with wholesome ingredients and absolutely no MSG. What really sets them apart is the attention to detail--every sauce and seasoning is made from scratch in-house, giving each dish a flavor that feels both homemade and elevated. From the crispy chicken to the refreshing house-made lemonade, everything tastes fresh, flavorful, and crafted with care. On top of the food, the staff was super welcoming and friendly, making the whole experience even better. You can tell they take pride not just in the food, but also in creating a warm, inviting atmosphere. Food does take a minute but it's all made fresh so worth the wait! If you're looking for quality comfort food with incredible flavor (and some seriously addictive sauces), this is a spot you won't want to miss. read more

Honestly so good. The staff is friendly and my food was nice and fresh. It's like canes but better and for black folks. Ive heard comments about it being pricey but it's very worth the price. You'll spend just as much going to any other drive thru place. Will return. read more

Ordered the spicy chicken, original chicken sandwich, and the chicken tenders. I would rate all the items average to a little above average. Maybe i came at a bad performance day for the crew there. I had to wait over 30 minutes for my order in the store when i ordered online an hour before. Then when i got the order they forgot my spicy chicken sandwich. Waited another 20 minutes to get that one. read more

Nom nom nom! Soo good! I went inside and purchased the Original Meal which includes a sauce, Cole slaw, Texas toast, 4 tenders, fries and drink. This chicken is SEASONED PERFECTFULLY. Nice touch of pepper. The fries are also seasoned well but not overwhelmingly salty. The Crispy Chick's house sauce is good as well as the honey mustard which both taste in house made. I will definitely be back. S/O to Lashaun for preparing my meal! read more

Stopped by to grab a bite because my boyfriend loves chicken tenders. The store says the tenders are made fresh to order so we had high hopes. The tenders ended up ok; the chicken was fresh but they could have been crispier. The fries were mediocre. The workers also forgot to give us both the sauce and the cole slaw that come with our meal. The best part was the garlic toast; the bread was soft and delicious, so I would recommend trying the chicken sandwich. The facilities/bathroom were also a bit grimy. read more

Got the chicken tenders family meal. Very delicious- family was happy. Although they were very delicious would only wish the chicken tenders were a little more crispy.

Way too good not to try! I've had almost everything and always fresh and delicious. The strips live up to all the hype. They are so meaty and tender. Dip in the signature sauce and it's over. The sandwich is a big go! Great customer service and clean restaurant. read more

I highly recommend this place!! The food is fresh and delicious. I was in Cleveland from out of town and can't stop thinking about it. Don't think, just go! You won't be disappointed!! Well worth the drive!! read more

The Crispiest Chick in town has warranted the stars of Yelp, all 5 of them to be exact, so I guess it's time for a review! My first time at The Crispy Chick I tried the signature sandwich. It was comprised of crispy chicken tenders topped with fresh coleslaw. The tenders were resting on a bed of pickles complimented with a nice portion of their amazing house sauce. It was served on a soft, warm and fresh brioche bun to deliver a phenomenal result that would raise the eyebrows of every tastebud. I was impressed that a fast food chicken joint that I never heard of could make the most amazing chicken sandwich I've ever had! They made me forget about my favorite popular chain. Now when I think chicken sandwich, I think Crispy Chick! My second time I had a hard time deciding to try something new but somehow I knew I wouldn't be disappointed...and I wasn't! This time I tried the wrap. The wrap was stuffed with crispy chicken tenders, lettuce, red onions, shredded cheddar cheese and their amazing house sauce. GOTTA HAVE THAT SAUCE! It was then finished off with a warm tortilla wrap to encompass the delicious greatness within. I honestly ordered the wrap to go lighter today but they don't skimp like other wraps! This thing delivers and packs a punch to the gut. I am stuffed, but happy! You will not be disappointed with The Crispy Chick! In fact, you'll probably become her side dude and without saying any names, make your main CHICK FIL A certain way and start to wonder why you haven't visited in awhile! Just saying! Get there!! read more

A friend of mine recommended this joint. He said the chicken and the sauce on the spicy chicken sandwich was awesome. I happened to be in the neighborhood, so I stopped in for a bite. I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich, but they were out of spicy chicken breasts. However, they substituted three spicy chicken tenders for the breast on the sandwich. They put it on a yummy bun, added some iceburg lettuce, and squirted on some zesty sauce. The sandwich was served piping hot, so hot that it burned my mouth. The flavor was amazing! This was the best spicy chicken sandwich that I've ever had. The pickles, sauce, lettuce, and chicken were all perfect. It had a good bit of spice to it. Amazing! I also ordered some spicy chicken tenders and those too were excellent. I couldn't finish them, so I took them home and my son, who normally doesn't like spicy food, polished them off. Next time I'm in this neighborhood, I will be visiting again. read more

Food was delicious! Service was friendly! I had the wrap combo. The fries were seasoned really well. I ordered two sides of sauce (house and honey mustard) because I thought the wrap was going to be bland, but it had a sauce in it and the chicken was seasoned to perfection! I used the drive-thru and had about a 10 minute wait, but it was worth it! I will definitely be back! read more

I love The Crispy Chick they have the best chicken strips in Cleveland period. It's a mainly drive thru restaurant but they do have a dine in area. The staff is always pleasant and provide great service every time I visit. The line can be long at times but what chicken spot isn't when the food is bomb. The restaurant makes all the food to order so it's hot and fresh. The chicken is well seasoned, crispy and tasty. I also love their cole slaw it's packed with flavor and tangy. A must try in Cleveland and once you go your guaranteed to be hooked. read more

Whenever we're on that side of town we pick up the Crispy Chick wrap. Great ingredients/sauce; it's enough for 2 meals for this old guy. Great seasoning on the fries. Now, the beverage (w/the meal) is smaller (12 oz) than most, but I find it ample. Their regular chicken strips are great, but I find the wrap superb. read more

I keep telling my wife how good this place is, so we decided to make a small trip The drive from Avon was well worth it. The sandwiches were as good as I described. The owner even checked on us during our visit. It's great to see these one off restaurants thrive. Go get the best chicken sandwich you could possibly ever have. Get some!! read more

We had heard all about this place and had to try for ourselves. It is way better than the competitor I shall not name. Everything is made from scratch and you can tell by the way it tastes. My husband dug the spicy chicken sandwich. It was juicy and very spicy. You can tell the chicken was freshly made in house. I love that this place is locally minority owned and cares about the community. I love the tenders and the house sauce. Soooo tasty and spiced perfectly. I also love the chicken wrap. It has so much flavor and doesn't taste greasy. Causal vibes. Will be back. read more

I was excited to try this place after seeing all the delicious post on IG. I can see why people compare it to Raising Cane's but The Crispy Chick has more variety. These are the items that Cane's do not have : A spicy chicken sandwich, A signature sandwich with house sauce, coleslaw and pickles sitting inside two brioche buns, chicken wrap, different dipping sauces and cheesecake slices. We got the signature sandwich and 3 piece meal. They're were tasty , well battered and not dry at all. I just love the house sauce. If I had to nitpick it would be the wait time. Other then that it's a great local business. We'll be back soon. read more

I've been here 3 times and love the Crispy Chicken wrap! It is so delicious and love the house sauce. Everything is fresh tasting and and perfectly cooked. If you want spicier, you have to order a different sauce. read more

The staff was courteous and very pleasant to deal with and the food was even better. Great chicken and reasonably price. Will be back

The employees are always nice. The tenders are delicious! I have only gotten the tenders meal or the tenders wrap. The wrap had a too much sauce on it, so next time I will ask for the sauce on the side. read more

Just finished two items from the Crispy Chick - the mega meal which I shared with my wife and a Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Mega Meal is 6 tenders, crinkle fries, texas toast slice, 2 oz container of cole slaw, 2 containers (2 oz size) of House Sauce - kinda like a Cane's sauce) and a drink. The spicy sandwich includes sweet pickles, had 3 tenders on it, their hot sauce (which they do NOT sell as one of their sauces) all served on a brioche bun. Also ordered two Habanero sauces (again, probably a 2 oz container). Excellent. The tenders are good. The highlight to me were the sauces - the original house sauce is fabulous (like I said kinda like a Cane's sauce), the habanero sauce had a wonderful contrast of heat and sweet. The "hot sauce" on the sandwich was superb - it does pick a burst of heat. As the owner explained to me, they do not sell this sauce on the side as it is too expensive to produce as it is a boatload of habanero's. So be warned - the spicy chicken sandwich is hot! Not like all those other fake "spicy" sandwiches out there. The contrast on the sandwich of the heat, along with the sweet pickles, was outstanding. I loved this sandwich and would contend that I liked this even a bit better than the Mega Meal. The place has a little seating inside, along with a take out window. I was there around 1:00 pm on a Thursday and even at that time I would say the business was brisk - both inside and outside in the drive through line. I strongly encourage you to visit. They tout homemade - all sauces homemade and chicken tenders fried fresh. They tout helping employees. They tout helping improve the neighborhood. Great story! read more

We got chicken tenders and fries to go with some yummy sauces. Can't beat this place on quality delicious food at an amazing price!

We finally got to try this place that we've been hearing so many good things about! So glad we did! Perfectly juicy chicken tenders with an amazing flavor! So many sauces to choose from!! We will definitely be back. I love going to a small business and seeing the owner working along side their staff. Friendly and fast! 10/10 recommended! read more

The Crispy Chick - (Salad was not from the restaurant) - Fast Food Near Me - Cleveland, Ohio

The only thing I like more than The Crispy Chick's food is The Crispy Chick's mission/story. Pulled from their website: "The Crispy Chick is a minority female-owned business. Our founder recognized the lack of wholesome and affordable foods available in the community and set out on a mission to change that. It will provide chicken raised without hormones or antibiotics to the community at affordable prices." The Crispy Chick is making a difference in the community, one tasty tender at a time. How can I NOT support this?! I've been getting takeout from there quite a bit during the COVID times, and I've never been disappointed. The food and prices are on point, and my takeout order is always well packed. Kudos to The Crispy Chick. SUPPORT LOCAL! read more

I was one of the first people to taste their chicken and it's good AF. This restaurant is family owned and I had the honor of meeting with the lady she's not bad at all she made sure everything was made fresh and that's how they're supposed to be doing it. You're always welcomed with a friendly staff. And it's spacious on the inside for it to look so small lol. Ambiance is not too bad. read more

I have been here about 5-6x so far, always go thru the drive-thru, and each time it did not disappoint, food is seasoned & delicious, it puts Cane's to shame! Since I tried it, this is my 1st choice when I want fresh chicken tenders. Keep up the good work! read more

Delicious food but subpar service. I went during my lunch break this week and ordered via the drive through. Service was not swift or pleasant, but the food was worth the wait. Please add extra time and don't go if you're in a hurry. The food was served hot and fresh, well seasoned too. The menu is not robust but the simplicity is appreciated. The 3 tenders, fries, and Texas toast was more than filling. I was unable to finish the fries. Their special sauce for the tenders was amazing. Recommend the food but don't expect much in terms of quality service. read more

We stopped in Cleveland to have lunch and was not disappointed in The Crispy Chick! We loved everything about this place. They have a beautiful plaque that explains their story & their mission to hire within the community & provide fresh chicken. We ordered a regular & spicy sandwich. We waited for about 10 minutes as we watched the chefs prepare our meals with fresh chicken battered in deliciousness. We paid 50 cents for their fresh from scratch sauces & they were great! I would definitely recommend to anyone passing through. read more

Stopped here because we wanted to give them a try . Reminded us a lot of Raising Cane's, but if Raising canes actually seasoned their food. Chicken fingers weren't as crispy as Canes, but they were much more flavorful. The one thing I always said when I got the Texas toast at Raising Cane's was they need to put garlic on this toast and Krispy chick does just that. The chicken fingers, however, on the small and thin side probably 1/3 the size of your average chicken finger. They should call him chicken fries for the size that they were . Fries were average could have done without the seasoned salt. Overall food tasted OK not sure if we would return though. read more
