Crispy Chick

Don’t forget about Crispy Chick!!! We were in search of a good chicken spot… We found a great one. Crispy Chick is an awesome spot for real good fried chicken. It’s painted orange walls have a 70s flair😇 There a several seats around the counter if you wanted to eat there. Walked in and there were several customers waiting for their order. THIS IS A GOOD SIGN THAT THE FOOD IS FRESH!!! placed a variety of items; Owner/ operator came and introduced himself- very friendly. Apologized for the wait- which was not necessary but very kind. The chicken was great: Tenders were juicy- not dry Biscuits- slightly sweet that’s addictive 2 piece chicken dark meat- hit and juicy 6 piece wings- the wings were not skimpy; Came with thick ranch; Bbq sauce was great as well. Whenever I’m in Boston, I’ll be sure to stop by.

My new go-to spot for old school fried chicken. Been ordering from this place at least twice a month whenever I’m craving for fried chicken. Cambridge and Somerville don’t have many great casual fried chicken options, and this is easily the best I’ve found so far, plus the prices are excellent. Like KFC, they use a pressure fryer, which means juicier meat and skin that’s crispy without being overly greasy. The breading has just the right thickness, and their mayo-based sauces are perfect. They season more lightly than KFC (which I prefer), and my go-to pieces are the drumsticks and thighs. The wings and breasts aren’t bad, but they’re not on par with the other cuts. The only thing I didn’t like was the rice bowl with tenders. I ordered it for delivery, so it might not be a fair comparison, but the tenders arrived a bit soggy and the coleslaw was bland. Potato wedges were amazing though. Still, I haven’t seen better chicken meal deals in the area in a long time. Highly recommend giving them a try.

Absolutely amazing food, and the people were so nice. They just made you want to stay, or come back tomorrow. The prices were fantastic, with the chicken and fries still being some of the best I've had. Awesome place!

I ordered two rice and chicken bowls. The Mac and cheese was weird, the cheese sauce was grainy like if they had put a couple spoons of their mashed potatoes the cheese sauce. Chicken was super dry and not crispy despite the name- I can ignore the crispy part since it did take some time to get home but it was pretty tough and flavorless, definitely no seasoning. The mashed potato’s gravy just tastes like salt. The bbq sauce tastes just like sweet baby rays. I like jays, just thought I’d mention what it tastes like. The coleslaw is alright, slightly sweet, nice crunch. The pico de gallo is spicy. I did not know that. It tastes like it was made with a salt water brine. It was, in fact, not cool, crunchy, and refreshing. I will say it is tangy though. I’m kinda mixed on this- I’ll just say it’s not bad, just not what the menu says. Overall the food was pretty mediocre, I’ll give the benefit of doubt for the incredible dry sawdust-in-your-mouth chicken and say it’s because it took a while to reach me But everything else was basically frozen tv dinner quality. Except frozen food doesn’t make you wait over an hour.

Best Chicken in Somerville and surrounding area! The owners were so kind and the food is amazing! Thank you Marue for your kindness and the GREAT chicken my son said he would have given 10 stars if he could!

I've been living in Winter Hill only for the past year but have become familiar with the nearby food options. Things are delicious but I never had a go-to spot for something quick and good. Now with Crispy Chick, I have that! Their chicken is as advertised, made fresh, and delicious. Quantities are generous and prices are very reasonable. Plus, the owner's nephew, Maru, works hard, usually by himself I've noticed, to make sure you get exactly what you want and have a good experience. If you're looking for a local, all around good meal, with competitive prices and pleasant service, please give Crispy Chick a try. You won't be disappointed. I live here and I still haven't been🍗🤤😊

Everything about this place was amazing. The service was genuinely so nice and the worker ensured the best possible service. AMAZING food for such a great price. Chicken so crispy and juicey the fried and wedges were IMMACULATE. Great price too!! Would recommend and will return for more food soon.

Ordered on Uber eats late night. Great food, made fresh.

The chicken looks exactly like the picture on the menu. My Cousin and I were skeptical when we first ordered from Crispy Chick. They did not disappoint. The fried chicken was delivered hot, fresh and crispy JUST LIKE THE PICTURE ON THE MENU. Prices are great and the chicken is delicious

This is the best fried chicken I have had since I've moved to Boston. I'm a black woman from Detroit, and I know my chicken wings!! These wings are seasoned extremely well, and not greasy. The breading amount is just right, and the meat is fresh. The Mac and cheese reminds me of my own Mac and cheese, baked with real cheddar. Not only would I recommend the food, but the service was phenomenal. The chicken was ready quickly, and the owner was so kind to me. He wanted me to have a good experience since this was my first time in. Please support this small, local business!

Good price, chicken was crispy, flavorful. It was just sitting around to long. Seems like it wasn't very well run, guy taking my order was taking my change from a $20 out of a plastic bag under the counter & his pocket?

Great chicken sandwich smothered in sauce at a reasonable price, fries were solid. Will definitely be returning

Tasty and friendly newcomer to the block. I had regular, on the bone fried chicken. To me, what matters is not just texture but flavor, and this chicken and breading tasted good. House special sauce was a tasty aioli (think tartar sauce without pickles), and I also had the buffalo sauce, which was spot on. Cole slaw was excellent and straight up -- no weird variations. The hit for me was the side of pico de gallo. Mild enough to eat as a light and refreshing side dish, like a chunky gazpacho.
