Love this place If u have kids from toddler to teen this is the best place for hangout and the food is good too Restroom clean, table sitting also clean read more

We stopped in 30 minutes before they closed and the place was a mess. We were told we could only order chicken strips so we ordered one order of grilled and one order of spicy. They made two orders of spicy and they told us that it would take too long for grilled strips. It was disappointing because my wife doesn't eat breaded strips but she managed to eat her strips. We were also told to move tables to the front area. They obviously wanted to close. I don't like to write bad reviews but this was a bad experience. read more

I had Chicken Guy at one of the airport and loved their chicken tenders that I was excited when I saw that they have a location in NYC. Upon first look, the front is so covered with billboards that you can easily miss the location. First peek into the window the place was dead around 4pm. Since I recall how good it was, I decided to go in and ordered the chicken tenders. The place was empty and as I'm looking around, one staff came out, did not acknowledge us at all even though there was no one in the restaurant. He was on his phone. A bit taken surprised I decided to let it go and see how the food is. I just ordered the tenders. In less than two minutes they let me know the food is ready which alarmed me since there were no customers. Once we stepped outside I decided to open the box just to make sure everything is going to be ok. The chicken tenders were warm-hot. The chicken was juicy and the batter was tasty with spices. From what I observed if they don't change customer service, the place may close down. I will go just because I do really like the tenders but need to work on service. read more

I came here with my father for lunch in midtown. The restaurant is convenient for professionals in the area. We ordered through a kiosk and the food came out pretty quickly. The dining area was fairly clean for a midtown restaurant and the service was friendly and accommodating. The eggrolls and sandwich were fried well; however, they were a little salty. Something that is probably common for a fast food joint. The fries were crispy and paired well with the chicken sandwich. I would definitely come back here and treat myself to lunch during the weekdays. read more

Located on 42nd St between Times Sq and Bryant Park so very accessible via public transportation. Order at Kiosks by the entrance or in-person at the counter (but 0-1 employee there that time so kiosk was better). There is an app but didn't work for me- after making our choices, it said error during checkout. Anyway, app menu and prices were different from the kiosk menu even when we picked the NYC location. Not sure why. As far as the food, I found it not to be anything special in terms of seasoning; not flavorful so needed the sauces that came with (avocado sauce for me). Large pieces of chicken though. Self-serve for fountain drinks. Ample seating in the middle to rear of the place. Restroom code on the receipt is not the correct one so had to ask an employee anyway. read more

I have heard good things about Guy Fieri's chicken food chain so I had to try it as soon as they opened one by my job. I walked over during lunch one day, took a menu from Mr. Chicken at the entrance and proceeded to order chicken nuggets with bourbon brown sugar bbq sauces. I'm so glad I got two sauces because I slathered it all over my nuggets and it made the tasting experience so much more delightful. I hope they start selling the sauce separately because I would buy a whole bottle. I can't wait to come back and try their sandwiches next. read more

You hear about Flavatown all the time, so when they finally opened an accessible Guy Fieri location that I could try, ya know I had to stop by. I got the Loaded Mac and Cheese with chopped chicken tenders,bacon, and green scallions on top. It was just okay though. The chicken tenders were decently flavored and the bacon and scallions were nice too but the mac and cheese itself was really bland and watery. I understand that you can't have super creamy or thicker mac and cheese in establishments like this because they dry out really easily so they have to go with a more watery consistency but there's not really any flavor to the "cheese" part at all. The service was alright, no complaints there and my meal came out quick, just kind of disappointing that I did not arrive at flavortown. I don't think I reached the halfway point even. read more

Guys so listen I stopped by and had the 3 piece tenders not bad but it's not something I would crave for again the sauces for the tenders were really good the fries as well the chicken was very well done crispy the only issue with me was once you took a bite the inside was glassy not to my liking I also ordered the Korean bbq chicken sandwich with the grilled tenders and I rate that a 6/10 it has a really nice spice, the chopped cheese and chicken egg rolls were a 1/10 they had to much cheese and could not taste nothing the chicken nor the meat it was horrible we also the tried the loaded Mac and cheese bowl horrible a 0 the Mac and cheese was not doing it not sure what it is with his food but I gave it a shot here in New York because in Vegas when I visited it was bad horrible so sorry won't ever visit again sadly read more

I stopped in cause I knew it was Guy's place and I was hungry during the photo walking tour I was giving. I wanted to try it out. Rookie move for sure. The chicken on the sandwich was good, but it stops there. The fries had a sugary seasoning thrown in top and the chocolate shake was not one of my favorites. Service was okay. I love Guy, but was not a huge fan of this place. read more

Chicken Guy! - Grilled chicken with bacon and fries. - Sandwiches Near Me - New York, New York

I came here for the Grand Opening of Chicken Guy! and it was cool to see him in person and see the ribbon cutting and all. Once inside it was a madhouse. I know grand openings can always be crazy but this one seemed like a bit more than usual. I got the 3 piece chicken tender deluxe meal which comes with fries and soda of your choice.'The sauces I got were BBQ and Honey Mustard. Since it was the grand opening they gave you two extra sauces if you wanted. So I opted for the ranch and the special sauce. All I will say is that this chicken is not for me. I don't know what spices they use in the breading but it's deff not for my taste buds. Their fries were nothing to write home about either. The sauces were nothing special. Tasted like regular BBQ and honey mustard. I think if I am not wrong they make the sauces in house... But I could be wrong. They are also known for their crazy good looking shakes. I did not indulge in one this time. But the samples they were handing out to us in line they looked like fun and delicious flavors. There are better chicken fingers options out there in NYC to go to. read more

My family and I were on a trip to New York, and we had a rather aggravating morning and were famished. We were back at our hotel and wanted a quick bite to eat. Next door was Chicken Guy! and so we decided to give it a shot. My brother and I going in got a lot of deja-vu/nostaglia vibes when we walked in. It took us a while to put our finger on why, but eventually we realized it kinda reminded us of the spoof fast food joint in the videogame set in NY called GTAIV. Specifically, it reminded us of Cluckin Bell. Sure, in the game, it was a spoof of Taco Bell and KFC combined... but the colors, how the restaurant was shaped, the chicken, even the mascot... it felt like we were in a Cluckin' Bell. We both laughed out loud hard when we realized this! Outside of this humorous realization, my family did enjoy eating here. The portion size is hearty, hell it almost feels like too much. The chicken is well seasoned, hot and delicious. The fries are perfectly crunchy. The service is way better than what you expect from fast food. We had some laughs, got some grub... it was a great result. read more

Wow...except for 1 good review, all the others were really bad. This is one of those places, you should go decide for yourself. I met my friends here for a quick dinner. The employees were welcoming once I walked right through the door. The self serve kiosks were next to the door entrance though you wouldn't know unless you turn around. There is a brief hallway before your reached the counter with actual employees. I went to look for my friends before I decided what to order. Since I shared my friend's chicken tender (3) with fries (thank you to my friend!), I decided to get a milkshake (treating myself) and fried pickles (another treat). The employee gave me an order number so when my food is ready, another employee brought it to my table. The wait wasn't too long. The chicken tender was a huge chunk of meat. It wasn't so moist or juicy that your fingers get greasy nor dry that you need a beverage to wash down the food. Eating 1 tender was enough for me since it was thick.I wasn't crazy about the fries. The fried pickles were perfect though it much for me to finish (yes, it's good for sharing). When the employee said their milkshake was good. I was skeptical since milkshakes can be thick or liquidity. I decided to the apple cinnamon cereal milkshake. It sounds a bit strange but since this is a treat, I'm going all out. Theirs was thick so it was perfect for me. There are a lot of pictures in the back seating area. If you need the restroom, follow the chicken feet prints. Make sure you get a receipt to get the bathroom code. Go try for yourself and decide. read more

Chicken strip portions are generous. Instead of chunky breading, these pieces have an eating coating along a slab of chicken. Fries were crispy and seasoned well. I wasn't a fan of the sauces I got but there were so many to choose from, so there may be better sauces than what I ordered. Food came out within a minute or two of ordering. The restaurant was a little grimy but had plenty of seating. read more

Tourist trap. The type of chicken that makes you want to get a refund after the first bite. Awkward layout. Order was incomplete. Uncomfortable experience. Fries were enjoyable but they're from out the freezer. Space would be used better for other things besides a chicken spot, especially a bad one. read more

The chicken is very tasty. It's crispy in a unique way. It was very flavourful and didn't need a sauce. However I did get the donkey sauce and that was good too. The fries were very bad. They were chewy and limp. They had little potato in them and were not fresh. The restaurant is clean and is a fast food decor. They're are seats in the back. Workers were friendly. The chicken tenders came out quickly but the sandwich took a long time. One thing to note is the workers spend a long time in the bathroom. I think yhe bathroom is the escape and break room. Both my friend and I waited over ten minutes to wash our hands and it was the workers in the bathrooms. I recommend a separate hand-wash area or a breakroom for the workers. The workers were fine but since the restaurant is an open concept and customers can see how the workers work there should be an awareness of what they talk about and handle the front station. Would come back here but bring your own handwipes. read more

Guy Fieri is a Scary Guy, but you won't want any of his menu items where you get a dump of chicken in this chicken dump. No, actually his chicken is pretty good, but I'm really tired of being forced to use a kiosk to order my food. There were 2 kiosks and neither one of them worked for me, and NOBODY came over to help me. I turned around and walked out. Note to Guy: FRIENDLY SERVICE is what brings a customer back. You oughta know that. And I won't be going back to your 42nd Ave. store. There are simply too many other eateries in New York to waste time at a dud. read more

Ordered: The O.G. Sandwich (~$8): with pickles & Special Sauce Three Tenders Combo (~$13): with fries, fountain drink (Diet Coke), and 2 sauces (Special Sauce & Donkey Sauce) 2 Additional Sauces: Chipotle Ranch & Nashville Hot Honey (complimentary on grand opening day) Aya's take: Chicken Guy officially had their grand opening on February 26 where Guy Fieri himself came for the ribbon cutting! I wasn't there then but still had a chance to see Guy Fieri at the Kelly Clarkson Show (airing on February 28). After the show, we decided to check out the Chicken Guy to see if it was any good. These tenders are unlike most other chains; they're flatter, crispier, and heavily seasoned. Despite being heavily seasoned, the sauces add so much more flavor and depth to every bite. Of the 4 sauces we tried, the Special Sauce and Chipotle Ranch were my favorite! The Special Sauce is a mix of ketchup, mayo, mustard, and pickle juice. The Donkey Sauce is similar to a garlic aioli but had a bit too much mayo for my liking. The Nashville Hot Honey was pretty forgettable. There's 10 sauces to choose from so grab a few to complement your meal! The O.G. Sandwich was actually so satisfying because they butter the bun so well and the special sauce seeps into the bun and chicken tenders. The Three Tenders Combo is a solid option but you definitely need the sauces for that added flavor profile. The fries are nicely crisp and fully coated with seasonings. I'm actually surprised to see so many bad reviews; it's decent and filling but it was a good one time try for me. read more

Recently opened so no knock for slow-ish service. One dimensional menu that features prices from 2018. Totally fine for tourists. Chicken quality below Chick-fil-A. Batter has so much stuff in it that it actually has a grittiness. Overpowering yet dry. Aftertaste is like you just shoveled the powder from the bottom of a bag of Doritos into your mouth. read more

Let me start by saying the staff are very nice! One guy seemed to be doing double duty taking orders in the front and then going to the kitchen to help out there. The decor is cute. That and that it's a celeb chef spot in the middle of Times Square made me question why it was so empty when we went on a beautiful Sunday afternoon. My daughter had chicken tenders and I had the Bourbn BBQ combo. The burger's appearance was impressive. Stacked high. What else can I say about the meal? It was edible. It was ok. Mid, as the kids say. I had high hopes for that burger but, yeah, mid is all I can give it. Fries were good. That about sums it up. read more

This place is across the street from my office, I was bound to wander in eventually and I'm glad I did. It was pretty empty for 11:30AM on a weekday which is ideal so I could quickly grab my lunch and head back to work. Walking in there are self-service kiosks at the front but I opted to order with the cashier standing in front of a wall of merch. The place is spotless but that might be the lack of customers. I ordered a chopped chicken Caesar salad with hot grilled chicken and waited maybe 15 minutes which is a bit of a long time...but I got my order and skipped back to work. They give you 2 to-go ramekins of dressing which is more than enough and the salad is a great size for lunch. The total came out to $10.88 with tax, you can't find any good lunch around here for that price unless you head to a truck and the good trucks rotate. The salad was great. I mean, it's a Caesar salad. Lettuce, cheese, chicken, croutons, & dressing. I'll try the other salad next and report back, because let's be honest...who else is gonna get a salad at a fried chicken spot?! Cheers. read more

I didn't take pics of the food because i just wanted to eat at that point. I went with a friend of mine on a Friday after work since we had been talking about going here for over a month. I was really interested in trying the hot chicken tenders, but I was disappointed. When we got there we ordered at the kiosk which gave options to order combos, sides, kids meals, and drinks but we wanted a non-combo 5 piece hot tenders, and the OG chicken sandwich combo. After figuring it out, we realized there was no option to select only hot chicken tenders, but it only came as a combo (which we didnt want). The hot tender option wasn't even there for us to select, just the regular tender. Once we paid and receipt printed out, it was literally blank with no info so I had to speak with one of the workers to ask how they would know my order. After waiting over 25 mins for our food, it finally came. We got the LTO-Chili Crisp Ranch Chicken Sandwich combo, lemonade, and our hot tenders. The tenders were good, and the sandwich good and messy. The combination of all the sauces and coleslaw made every bite almost fall apart, but it was good. The fries were salted to perfection. I wouldn't think this is fast food, as long as it took to get our order, but all in all it was an experience and I can say I got to try the Chicken Guy! read more

It's a solid Fried Chicken spot, similar to 375 Chicken N' Fries both are good and have great fried chicken. Their Bourbon Brown Sugar BBQ is saucy and the slaw at the bottom cuts through the oil of the chicken. Great blend of flavors. The service was also very quick, walked in to place an order and it was ready within five minutes. Their fries are also one of the better fries I have had. read more

These guys know their chicken! I had the Calabrian combo with a shake and it was great!

Whatever problems this new spot had, I think they've fixed! My chicken tenders were perfectly cooked, my fries were perfectly seasoned and crispy. I liked the special sauce _and loved_ the donkey sauce. I don't hate on Guy or this place. It's actually good. I'm wondering what the spice blend is he's using in the chicken coating and to dust the fries -there's definitely brown sugar added to a poultry seasoning blend, maybe some cinnamon too. read more

According to the other reviews, many others share the same opinion about Chicken Guy's food. The best thing about this restaurant is the decor and the brioche bread used on the sandwiches. There was an excessive amount of seasoning on the fries and the chicken on every sandwich was overcooked and hard. The Mac&Chesse on top of the burger had the consistency of mud and tasted bland and plain. The Egg Rolls were too mushy and did not have a good texture. I found the oreo milkshake to be thin and average. In my kitchen, I have made better milkshakes. Customer service was satisfactory with a pleasant host and staff. In this area of midtown, I can imagine what the rent is like. It is unfortunate that the food here is of such poor quality. Chicken Guy could only remain at this location if the chain owned the building. Good luck, Chicken Guy, if rent has to be paid with such an overpriced selection of basic, unappetizing food. Even if the food were free, I would not return. I would like to offer some advice to the team responsible for the company's menu. The way the chicken is prepared should be changed to reduce some of the seasoning. The shakes should be thickened and french fries should be available with or without seasoning. Until they make some changes to the menu and announce them. The food is not worth your time or money. read more

I just visited the Chicken Guy! on 42nd Street and all I can say is that Guy Fieri must have zero concern about the level of food that his restaurants put out. We ordered at counter, sat down and 1 minute later our food was ready. Of course it takes no time when the chicken and fries have been sitting getting cold for who knows how long. I asked why they would just serve food that is stone cold. They had no answer but gave me another fresh batch in 30 seconds which shows they just replace the cold food sitting around. Incredible. My son's strips and my sandwich lukewarm at best. Do yourself a favor and avoid this place at all costs. read more

Was excited to try it since I work very close by. The food was edible, but when you have a Raising Cane's, Popeyes, Jollibee, Bonchon and every fried chicken fast food chain you can think of within a 5 minute walk, you need to stand out. It wasn't good, the chicken tenders were bricks with seasoning, basic pool/beach snackbars have better tenders. The fries were over-spiced so that took away from enjoying the actual fries. Also, it took a bit of time to get the food when there was a relatively short line. Won't be going back unfortunately. Hopefully the kinks can be worked out because there is way too many competitors out here for them to be serving this level of quality. read more

Recently opened and couldn't wait to finally try it, as I love hot chicken. I ordered the 5 pc hot chicken tenders and for the price, they were really big - so come hungry as the portions are tasty and satisfying.

Super easy order and takeout process, and affordable considering the location. read more
