I wrote this part of the review two years ago: I can see a place like this expanding very quickly. The customer service is so noteworthy I came here to write a review, which I seldom do. 9.7/10 The food is phenomenal. If not the best Nashville hot chicken sandwich I've had--it's at least in the top 3 nationwide You can tell the employees here actually care. The cashier literally RAN my order to me, while I stood out in the parking lot "tailgating" Watching the cooks, it's actually interesting to me how noticeable it is that they're invested in the quality of their work. Body language alone shows it. But the execution on this menu is genuinely perfect. If I owned this and was in the green, I'd be so thrilled with my crew. They do their job PERFECTLY. Today, I visited again-- same employee with the same great customer service brought my food out. I tried something new-- the rooster... and although they missed my caramelized onions-- this place provides such a great experience that I don't WANT to complain about it. The sandwich is fire, but I need some oniony balance for my sweet candied jalapeños. Good shit you guys. Please come open up shop down south of the state line. We need better chicken down there! read more

Today I tried the Sunrise Turbo tots. I added fried chicken, nashy style. Holy cow it was delicious! The tots are perfectly crispy and well seasoned. The fried egg was perfectly cooked and the house gravy is tasty. The chicken is crispy and so flavorful. The Nashville (nashy) seasoning has a nice kick to it. Not overwhelmingly spicy but definitely a good kick. I ordered a small which is pretty big. I can't wait to try other menu items. I have a feeling that this place will be come my new favorite spot. The service is quick and friendly. read more

Turbo Chicken - Sunrise Turbo Tots with chicken chicken, nashy style - Chicken Shop Near Me - Portage, Michigan

One of the few places that seems to actually care about GF needs. Very few Kalamazoo places will take extra care so it's one of the few on the list of family-safe eats that actually taste good! read more

Busy when we arrived, busier when we left. We ordered the Chicken Seoul with kitchen slaw, and a regular chicken sando with two chocolate malts....gone in a flash. I think we inhaled the goodness. Small shop, access to parking lot a little awkward, but worth the trip. We will return. read more

Visiting today from out of town. Disappointed the Fruity Pebbles shake wasn't available (or any shakes) but otherwise it was an excellent choice. Greeted by a very friendly counter person! The sandwiches were large and delicious. The totchoes were so good!! Turbo is a solid choice. read more

Turbo Chicken is similar to Chick Fil A, but with a larger chicken piece...cooked to perfection, at the same price range. They are a small LOCAL business, with friendly staff. They are very clean. The menu is posted on the wall, (which was a little confusing, the first time) but the portion size, and the quality of the meal was good. This is a cosy spot, and we will be back. read more

This place has been recommended to me for so long and I've finally caved! The service was great and answered all the questions I had! The chicken they had was amazing, I recommend for sure. I wasn't the biggest fan of the tots, since mine were a bit overdone and didn't have much flavor. But the BBQ sauce and the chicken sandwich were both good! read more

I have been wanting to come here. And I am soooo glad I did! I order the 3 piece tender combo. With Nashville hot on the chicken and tots. The chicken was spectacular, just know the Nashville hot is a sauce, and not in the breading. The tots were great too. The staff was attentive and friendly. The food came out quickly. I will definitely be back! The dining area is nothing special. But clean and sufficient. read more

The tater tot is elevated to a whole new level by Turbo Chicken! Love their online ordering, friendly customer service and the variety of toppings for the tots! Gluten free chicken sandwich was just launched and it was so popular it sold out the first few days but I am sure they will make more. The list of sauces is impressive. The ice cream malts are next level. This chocolate raspberry malt was incredible! read more

This place has the best service, specials, fried chicken, tots, and malts. This photo was for a garlic mash bowl special that was literally one of the best things I've ever had. Wish they would put it on the menu permanently, AMAZING! read more

The tots with spicy garlic ranch was super delicious! The service was crazy fast. The turbo chicken sandwich was decent, fairly thin chicken but not too overly breaded. I'd ask for extra sauce. Small inside so I think meant for more of a to go place. read more

Really great little chicken spot close by Kalamazoo airport! The chicken is crispy the staff is friendly and the tots are to die for. We are a big fan of tots and they had a lot of flavor options. I enjoyed the truffle tots because they were extra crispy and the flavor came through. Plenty of parking but only two tables inside and a little bar seating. read more

We were driving from Chicago to Ann Arbor when we realized just how hungry we were. I opened up Yelp and did a quick search with the word spicy in it. This was one of the spots that came up as close by. It was conveniently located near the highway exit so we decided to check it out. The dining area is small with just a few tables. There is some fun artwork drawn on the wall and the menu is also posted. We we warmly greeted and told them it was our first time. I would highly recommend the totchos. The small was still big enough to share. They were well seasoned and something I would order on every visit. The chicken comes in a variety of preparations. I ordered the Korean style grilled. It was delicious but quite messy. I would order it again though. It has a nice little kick. The only downside is that everything is disposable even when dining in. That is a peeve of mine, especially if it is styrofoam or plastic single use packaging. This place is definitely worth checking out. read more

With all the great reviews, I had high expectations for Turbo Chicken. Sadly, when our order was brought to our table a few minutes later, the tots were not hot at all. My guess is they had been sitting back there for a bit, and lacked the fresh, hot crunch good tots are known for. So this was really disappointing. The chicken sandwich was just okay, nothing to write home about. And quite a bit smaller than photos I've seen in other reviews. I will say that the staff was very nice and friendly, but the food would be much better if it was made fresh to order. Cute interior with a couple tables and nice decorations. Not sure if I would return after the mediocre first time experience. read more

OMG the best chicken ever! No, seriously. We went on a Saturday, ordered a bucket of tenders and some totchos. It was so delicious we tried to go back on Sunday but sadly they were closed. The service was courteous and prompt. They took extra care to ensure the chicken stayed crispy even when packed for takeout and included sauces. The restaurant was clean, bright, and cleverly decorated. Seriously, if you are within 100 miles it is worth the trip. WOW read more

Stopped by because I found out about them after portage rd exit is finally open. Heard good reviews but I can't see why. I ordered chicken fingers with ranch for dipping along with a chocolate malt. The chicken was not fresh, it was not crispy or super hot so that is how I know. The chicken was moist and it was ok. I have had worse and I have had better. I just wished they cooked the strips fresh when I ordered them. The ranch dressing was fairly good tasted homemade. The malt was so so. Not much malt flavor and tasted like it was made with Hershey chocolate syrup. I know some like the taste of Hershey's but I am not a fan. Might be back might not. read more

The best chicken sandwich I have had in a long time. I had is Nashville hot and it was spicy. I also had tater tots and they were good. Service was quick although we ordered and picked up the food. Next time I am in the area, I will be back! read more

I found hair in my chicken I told the manger and just got horrible service!! do not go here the owner is very rude!!

No thanks I just will not be back. Cold food in these times and food prices is high if you or any restaurant don't get it right the first time No Thank You. read more

The food at Turbo is wonderful! It is always homemade and the quality shines through. While it's call Turbo Chicken, do not sleep on their smash burgers! They are outstanding! The weekly specials are always unique and amazing! read more

Bad service, horrible food, and the owners are rude and unprofessional. The chicken was overcooked and dry, and the sides tasted stale. The place seemed very dirty, with sticky tables and a general lack of cleanliness. There was also an odd smell in the restaurant, making the entire experience uncomfortable. The staff seemed uninterested in helping and more focused on chatting amongst themselves. Definitely not worth the visit. I would not recommend this place to anyone. read more

On my quest to find the best chicken sandwich, I had to visit the one and only Turbo Chicken. This place has been highly recommended to me. I ordered one crispy chicken sandwich and one spicy to compare. I highly recommend the spicy crispy chicken sandwich. It was juicy, big piece of meat and crispy. The bread to chicken ratio could be a little bit better because It felt like I had no bread to chicken. For a side I got the pasta salad, which was okay. I give this place 4 stars and would recommend. read more

I have tried mango drink on Indian week. It was so good, creamy and delicious. It tasted like ice cream. There was small pieces of dried mango on the top. Very nice to try. I haven't tried their chicken sandwiches yet but i will come back to try some. The staff were very nice and friendly. The prices are good. read more

Great food! Great establishment! The owners are there working hard every day, and the staff is amazing!

Tried this place a few weeks back and really loved what we got! Husband ordered their kimchi chicken sandwich and their tenders with blue cheese dressing. I ordered the chicken wrap, which was seriously delicious! (I want it again!) Their signage was beautifully designed and eye catching! All protocols were in place, very important. I wish there was somewhere to sit! I understand they're just starting off, so they've got room to grow. I look forward to visiting again! That wrap was truly memorable! read more

Took an hour drive to check this place out and now I'm contemplating selling my home to be closer to Turbo Chicken. Had the Turbo Sandwich - easily the best chicken sammy I've ever had. It was juicy, crispy, peppery and I loved the homemade pickles. The Tennessee Tots were so good they have ruined all other tot experiences, past and future. And then I had a shake. Ice cream is my favorite food group and the Buckeye shake of the week did not disappoint. The real question is ... does Guy Fieri know about this place? If he did I bet he'd be taking down every pylon on Portage Road in his red convertible for Turbo Chicken. Thanks for the treat! read more

Yum! Ordered combo 2, which came with two tenders, tots, choice of sauce, and house gravy. Both tots and tenders are well seasoned, and I was lucky enough to get them right when they came out of the fryer. Both stayed crispy enough until I got home. The tenders are huge! Really hot and juicy inside and goes well with the house gravy, which is a thick white gravy. Kitchen seem to have minor hiccups (didn't get gravy in mine but car snacking has its perks! Went back inside to ask for it), so make sure you check your order. read more

The service here is top notch. We ended up here on accident after a visit to the air zoo with the kids which is only a couple miles away. The chicken sandwich is massive. And oh so delicious, tender inside, crispy outside and super flavorful. Maybe best chicken sandwich ever. Yeah, I think so. Lots of sauce choices. The patience level of the employees blew my mind. I have four kids so sauce choices/drink choices can take a bit. They were friendly, kind and helpful. Also their malted shakes...the Elvis. Yes! If it's an option, your answer should be YES! Unless, you don't like bacon....then I question your humanity . For real though, the banana flavor was ridiculous. And they make everything from scratch in house. I wish I lived closer. read more

The chicken sandwich that they make is one of the best around. I would recommend it to anyone in the Kazoo area. It's better than Chic-Fliet & a lot less ingredients. Owner- Manager really friendly, generous portions, take out only. read more

I wanted this place to hit but it was a miss. Ordered the Nashville tots and they were half cold and the Nashville sauce was more sweet than an heat with overpowering carmelized diced onion. I assumed there would be chopped chicken topping the tots but this spot just loads up the cheese, onion, and bacon bits. I would recommend heading to Taco Bell across the street read more

Insanely good food. Usually friendly people and ordering online for pickup is easy. Love this place!

The chicken was plain nothing special and the sauce was not very good either. If they offered a better sauce, like sweet baby rays, I would be able to maybe eat the chicken. The tots weren't bad. read more

What can I say about Turbo Chicken? Amazing owners, ever better staff, the specials are always a hit, and the food is delicious and never had a problem with food quality or service! If you love hot chicken, this is the place to go as well because they can make it nashy for you! They even got one of the best burgers in Kalamazoo! This is a must stop in Portage/Kalamazoo! read more
