Some combination of entering at 2 am with semi-attractive women led to free drinks, mac and cheese, and other sides. The free food just about compensates for the sexist slurs shouted as you leave.

The sauce is Chirping Chicken’s signature- slightly tangy, smoky, and sweet, it is wonderful on the crispy skin of the chicken. The chicken, regardless of whether it’s dark or white meat, is always... Read more

A great no nonsense restaurant where you can get a delicious whole roasted chicken and all the fixings at a very reasonable price! Dinner is served!

This place doesn’t overcook the chicken, gives you a choice between salad and mac and cheese, and serves baked potatoes and sweet potatoes that are soft and hot and wonderfully plain. Read more

The sauce is Chirping Chicken’s signature- slightly tangy, smoky, and sweet, it is wonderful on the crispy skin of the chicken. It's always succulent and well seasoned, never a dry bird here. Read more

Come here after a SoulCycle sesh! Take the guilt out of eating juicy delicious chicken skin. The Greek salad was banging too!

Arroz con pollo is a family favorite but chicken and fries always also a big hit with the kids. Nice baked sweet potato and rice pudding.

Chicken is always fresh and juicy. Always crowded - I call ahead and usually ready for pickup.

Far none one of the best chicken joints in the city. Great that they added a salad to my meal which was a surprise! Got crowded at times though, so off-peak hours is the best times.

Good food for a good price. Basic atmosphere but ordering out is so reasonable. Gyro platter feeds 2 easily!

The Greek salad and rotisserie chicken are my favorites. Service isn't the best but is quick and efficient!

Rotisserie chicken with fresh tomato sauce (it's not marinara). So good.

Get a whole roasted chicken, Mac & cheese, and a Salad.$22.. Last time we went we got mashed potatoes and they were FAKE, NASTY!! Great chicken!!
Melissa NeumannJanuary 12, 2013
Absolutely delish. I highly recommend the chicken finger, French fries, and an extra helping of their honey mustard!

Been eating Chirping Chicken since I was a kid. 1/4 Chicken, 1/4 Ribs, a side, salad, and soda is drug of choice on a lazy weekend watching football.

I'm so picky with my chicken fingers, but Chirping Chicken never disappoints! Try the chicken souvlaki sandwich as well! Om nom nomz!

Mesclun salad with chicken, chicken souvlaki at both great.

Good chicken but place was completely overwhelmed. 1/2 of our order didn't come out and they gave us the wrong number cards so the waitresses had no clue where to bring the food too.

I had the chicken shawarma plate. Very good.

Grilled chicken strips with side, water and soda (if you want it) for about ten bucks. Plenty to eat.

The chicken was definitely not chirping anymore... But the 1/4 chicken 1/4 ribs meal is great for the price!

Ribs are very underrated

Great place, but their idea of a Caesar salad is a normal salad (tomatoes, Italian dressing!) + croutons. Ouch.
Tony TanDecember 31, 2013
Call ahead and order because in house customer service isn't there. Waited until 10 minutes with all cashiers busy taking phone orders
Crystal WarnerJuly 5, 2015
Nice neighborhood

Ordered a cheeseburger and a side salad. Asked for extra pickles and I assumed she knew that meant on the burger. Instead I got a huge salad with extra pickles. I mean seriously, wtf.

This place is the bombdotcom for lunch but it gets soooo crowded. Go on off-hours.
Yan PJune 14, 2014
I pretty much took this place out of my rotation since they added a fee for deliveries. There are too many better options around without said fee.
