My first time here and my last. I really just came because I was hungry after getting my nails done but anyway I told them Fried Hard with mild sauce and lemon pepper and the skin on my chicken came out so weird like they missed an ingredient and it wasn't seasoned it just had mild sauce on it. The chicken was really missing that Harold's taste. The mild sauce is good but the quality of the food is a no for me. My chicken tenders came out looking funny as well I didn't even eat them or feed them to my kids. read more

See all

Ordered wings, fries - delicious! Service is always hit and miss, rude. The mild sauce and their hot sauce is top notch

Great service, friendly staff and good seasoning on the food! Mobile payments are accepted (yay for Samsung Pay points!) and they're good at filling call-in orders in a timely fashion. So glad this location exists! read more

Harold's Chicken - South side chicken shack comes to Dyer... 1/2 white mild and salt and pepper... The fastest and cleanest Harold's I've ever been in... - Chicken Wings Near Me - Dyer, Indiana

Went for lunch, called the order in. It was ready when I arrived. The cashier was a guy very nice. Food was hot and fresh. Thank you. Keep it up read more

The food is normally good but today it was lacking the regular seasoning I asked for hard fried chicken and it was obvious what I wanted didn't matter and prior to the lack luster food I saw the little female cashier with glasses totally disrespect a customer in front of me the way she spoke to this woman I thought I was at Popeyes the professionalism is really lacking they are acting like we are doing them a favor by patronizing this establishment I've been coming to this location for a while and I was shocked maybe time to find another chicken place read more

Horrible. Ordered food on the Uber eats app.. the order came back wrong.. then I had to go back multiple times just to get my order right.. just to get home and the correct food is horrible and super greasy... smallest wings I've ever had.. never again... read more

DON'T DO IT: Horrible service and cold food. This was after I was told it wouldn't take 20 minutes for 4 chicken tenders and fries. Then, the employees made me wait an extra 15 minutes after I arrived 30 minutes after I called in. I would not recommend this place! No Bueno!!! read more

I ordered last night with Uber Eats. I asked that the sauce be on the side on all three items, and everything was coated in sauce. We could not eat the food. It was soaked. read more

I'm leaving this review because I was put on hold now2 time after talking to some one for over 10 mins, how can people run a business like that. Why is there no chicken tenders on their website, it's like one of the main thing people order. In the last year they have gotten much less effective or just don't really care. read more

Very tasty, no complaints there, but no effort at customer service. They closed early despite my online order submitted about an hour before closing time. I showed up 15 minutes before closing to an empty building. And they don't even care. I submitted a complaint about the failed order to the restaurant. No response since, days later. I know places close early, but to never even acknowledge the mistake or reply to a written costumer complaint? Well...that's the only reason why I'm telling y'all. read more

Ordered and paid online because when I called I was left on hold for 5 minutes. It's quicker to order online. When I got to the restaurant the guy at the register is on a call with a guy going over everything on the menu and didn't even ask us to be patient or acknowledge we came in. Guys in the back are just standing around holding a conversation. Upon receiving my order, they left out an item that I didn't notice until I got home even though the item was on the receipt. When I called back to inform them and ask for a refund since it was an inconvenience to go back at the time...I was left on hold for another 10 minutes. Food was ok but I'm not raving about it. read more

Harolds Chicken is wonderful! The mild sauce, which is my favorite, is put on top of the fried chicken, French fries, and slice of bread, is heavenly! Of course, you can get the chicken without the sauce, and they do have a spicy version, too. I can't imagine why anyone would give it a bad review. The price is very reasonable, too! read more

I come to this location often to eat! This is the best Harold's located in the Indiana area. With that being said, this year I decided to celebrate my 31st Birthday next door at the Private Harold's Chicken Venue. & I had such an amazing experience!! Kellie & Sky were awesome, they were very helpful and understanding to my fiance and I needs. The venue was beautiful and the bar tending services were great as well. I give this location all 5 stars. I highly recommend and I will definitely have my next event here. Thanks again Kellie! read more

It's just an average chicken place. Not the best. Not close to the worst. Friendly staff, clean restaurant area, moderate wait time for foods, limited menu choice, over priced. Fries are kinda gross. 3/5 for the reasons above read more

At this location you don't get what you pay for. Make sure you check your bag. Only got 1/2 the order that had paid online

Everyone raves about this place but I was not impressed. My fried chicken strip looked dirty (yes dirty). Fries were cold. I am not impressed and will not be trying this place again. Disappointed. read more

Was there just this past Monday, 6/3/19. Ordered a small gizzard w mild sauce. Gizzards were drenched, drenched!, in sauce. It was ridiculous. My problems didn't end there. The typically sweet sauce had a very peculiar and strong vinegar finish. I've had heartburn for two days. Dog wouldn't even eat leftovers. The place had a constant stream of customers, young, old, black, white. My anticipation was through the roof! Now the only thing through the roof are the flames shooting from my chest. I will not go back. (That is, if I live.) read more

This Spot is a MIss & Miss my 2nd and last time supporting this location. I WILL NEVER RETURN To this location AFTER THIS INTERACTION my orders were not Cooked fully you could smell to RAW smell . I immediately called and explained to the young lady that I don't live close to this Location to come back and return I was frustrated and they were near closing anyway. I explained I could-take a picture of the food in garbage with garbage on top ! The young lady no need and explained to another worker my frustration and they agreed that they would put my name down as a one time replacement and they would replace my order and I could pick it up... call 1st - On pick up day which was within that week I called Harold and story changed to no record of my name or issue . I ask to speak with the manager "she was out getting Pop's", said worker ... and said call back again everything should be ok. Finally call back talk to Manager her name was D! ALSO everybody name was D !even when I asked for last name it was D! Finally call back to explain for like the 5th time the issue but now speaking with Manager D thinking that it was going to be a simple yes come pick up order . the Manager said no and that she would have to speak to the Owner ":WOW " Me - this was just a 20.00 order and the food was not cooked I would like to keep coming to this location, I own my own business as well. I work in corporate service and sales and I have integrity and understand how people try to get over this is not the case . Manger D- yeah well ...... I have to still talk to Owner . I said I will do you one better than that ... Since this has become a debacle I will dispute the charge with my bank all I wanted was cooked food that I Paid for ... and Look for my review on Yelp! and she said ":Okay that's fine in a laughing manner. To the owner this is how we fail , this is how you treat customers , if the manager you hired can't make a sensible 20.00 decision to make a customer happy and take ownership.... you will forever have business struggles . So I hope that your Ok just like your manger thought it was okay ! with that said I leave you this review . And my bank has already refunded my charge as I typed The worst part is I host weekly workshops with companies and its near your area as well .. I would have liked to do more business in Bulk which would have benefited both parties .... sorry I hope that you hire better workers that can make better decisions within reason for good customer . I will share my experience with my colleagues as well. You staff was ignorant and lackadaisical. Costing a ZERO REVIEW, PISSED CUSTOMER/ Business OWNER / And a Reversed charge . Sadly the workers were very Ignorant As hard as it is struggle for Black Business to continue to thrive and stay productive this could have been handle. read more

The fish is on point, who would have thought the fish is better than the chicken! Very well seasoned, I would have preferred fried hard but it is very mouth watering. A must stop! #monalisastampofapproval. read more

Best Harold's that I have been to in years. Was there on a busy Tuesday night. Friendly staff was well organized getting customers in and out. Chicken was fried and seasoned perfectly, reminding me just how good Harold's tasted back in the 80's. read more

This chicken is terrible with no flavor! I have given them 3 chances and nothing has changed. It all starts when you step into the place. When you call your in hold for ever. Stay far away read more

This is the worst food ever. The wings are on steroids and bigger than Turkey wings, they were undercooked and cold. The sauce I ordered was missing and the one with sauce on the side had extra sauce all over it. The fries were half cooked. I will never order from or recommend this location ever again. read more

I did an online order from the Harold's in Dyer. I ordered a large catfish dinner and a large perch fish dinner. On line it states that you get 4 pieces of perch in the large. When I got home, there were 3 very little pieces of perch. The catfish filets were small as well. When I called the store, the employee Hannah told me that it's only 3 pieces in the large and that's what it is. I told her that what is online should match what the customer gets. I told her that I would like to speak to the manager, but she told me that the manager was cooking. I told her I would call back the next day, which I did. I spoke to the manager and she told me basically the same thing. I told her the quality is not there and she told me that they take whatever is sent to them by the vendor. I will NOT be patronizing this store again. It costs me $21.00 for little pieces of fish that were not that good. When I expressed my disappointment, she was not apologetic. As I'm writing this review, the manager called me back with a different tone. She did credit my account and made the corrections on their website to reflect the correct amount of pieces in the price. I am glad they at least made an effort to take care of this. I hope they look into the quality of their fish. Their chicken is very good. Maybe they should just stick to chicken!!!

I was surprised this location is pretty good. I walked in and ordered a chicken and liver dinner with mild sauce. They made it fresh and the wait was about 10 minutes. I didn't mind at all. Chicken was delicious and the livers we breaded well and not over cooked. My only complaint is they barely put any mild sauce on my food. I would have paid extra for more if I would have known. Maybe I'm just used to how much sauce 87th uses though. Will definitely order again. read more

I'm so disappointed..I usually order from them once a week for my parents..this is the second time in a month that I've been overlooked..I'm conflicted at how hard it is to tell a customer to give us a minute someone will be with you shortly..they used to have the sweetest help there but not so much now.. today I went to pick up my parents food & I waited patiently after they called me to tell me that my order was ready..I go in and there are 2 ppl in front of me..they order & then it's my turn..the young lady at the register goes to the back & then she returns..a young lady comes from the back looks over me and ask the ppl behind me did they call in an order..ummm excuse me yes I did.. I walk up to the counter & say I'm confused why every time I come I I'm not acknowledged..the girl from the register goes back to repeat exactly what I said & they discuss it instead of apologizing..WTH?? Still no apology...where did they get these ppl..this is customer service, maybe it's not for u..i Wong be getting my parents Harold's anymore..sad thing is they love it but these are trying times & being polite at your business should be important..how sad.. read more

great service and the food it great .the chicken tastes so yummy and delicious,its a must try restaurant

This is a great place to get good, hot, fresh food from. The fish was seasoned to taste really good. Also the chicken & fries were on point.Customer service was good they smiled & had warm greetings. I recommend if you want some good fresh food with good service, go to Harold's Chicken in Dyer, Indiana. Awww don't let me forget the sauce was delicious.. read more

It's the real Harold's. Wait while they make it fresh. Breading is great but the tender chicken underneath is what's fantastic. Lunch specials are very affordable. Hot enough that it won't be cold if you carry out to the office or home. read more

Yesterday was my second time going. I called in my order and it was ready when I got there. The food was hot and fresh. The staff was really nice. I have a Harolds's near my home but this is my new place. Very clean in the front and back. Love Harolds's chicken in Dyer read more

The best fried chicken in our area. It was all made fresh and was perfect. The hot sauce is fantastic and the coleslaw is to die for. The service was great and everyone was very friendly as well. We will definitely be back again! read more

Food used to be good now, nasty, Ask them to fry chicken breast special soft, it was so hard the bone told me that the chicken was old. They don't listen I ask for SOFT!! Sad part I bought the food for a patient in the hospital. read more

I am SO DISAPPOINTED ! Love Harold's and was anxiously anticipating the opening . Was VERY LET DOWN. Both order had barely cooked soggy fries and the chicken coating was under flavored and toasted mire like grease than good chicken coating. I will say the inside flavor of the chicken was good but the rest if the meal went in the garbage read more

I have visited this location on several occasions and all I can say is, the food and customer service do not disappoint!!! Most recently, I placed a large order for chicken last night. Everyone at the party inquired as to where the chicken came from, ranting and ravong over the perfect seasoning and freshness of the chicken. What I love most is that the food is cooked fresh. I also love the customer service. In short, if u are looking for some good food, you will not go wrong here!! read more

My very first time trying this location since they opened. I called to place my order and asked for a 12 wing dinner. The girl on the phone asked me "Do you want the dinner?"... Get home and no fries. I call and the girl apologized and then said (after speaking with someone in the background) the 12 wing dinner doesn't come with fries anymore. Anymore? Are you serious? Maybe you shouldn't refer to it as a dinner and maybe you should inform people that they don't come with fries so they can order some. The chicken was delicious, but that was a horrible first impression! read more

This place was pretty good taste wise,but the service was terrible I went in this morning at 12:00 and I ordered a chicken basket 3 pops and fries.The lady could not hear me (so she ) but then fianally I got my order through.after 15 mins she read off my order and I was on my way I get home open my bag and zero pops! I saw my recipt and it wasnt on it,but they make very good chicken read more

Simple order, 1/2 dark mild. Get home, no sauce on it at all. There chicken sucks without sauce.

We visited a Harolds Chicken around our house in Dolton and it was horrible to say the least. So we were looking online and seen the Harold in Dyer, In was ranked #2 in the Chicagoland area. It's about 15 mins away from us so we took the drive. When we got there the staff greeted us immediately and due to the current covid pandemic the seats were stack to the side to avoid dine-in. We placed our order and the employee took our number to call when the food was ready. After we went shopping at the Dollar Tree next door, we went back to the Harolds to check on the order. The employee stated he was just about to call us and that our food was ready. The smell of mild sauce and freshly fried chicken permeated throughout the car. When we got home the food was still hot. Everything was perfect!! The chicken was freshly fried and seasoned to perfection. The sauce was the perfect amount-hell! Even the coleslaw was slamming. They are #1 to me until I taste otherwise. read more

Today, Sunday, May 22, 2022, I placed an on line order with Harold's Chicken located in Dyer, IN. When the young lady brought the order to me out of the warmer I saw that the 2 pints of Cole slaw were included in the bag. I asked her why the Cole slaws had been placed in the warmer with the chicken. Her response was, "I didn't bag the order". Not, I'm sorry Miss, let me get you some cold ones. I had to tell her that I wanted 2 cold Cole slaws. Then she replied, "We only have one left". I told her to give me that one and take the other one off my card. She walked over to an employee and said something to him . I then asked her how would I know that she took the charge off my card and she never gave me an answer. I left. To make things worse when I got home and tasted the wings they seemed like they had been reheated and had no crunch whatsoever! My Order was 36 wings, pan of fries and 2 pints of Cole slaw, What a waste of money! I was there a couple of months ago and ordered 36 wings and asked them to not put sauce on 10 of the wings. I was told, "We don't do that". Why is it that at many non-black establishments they seem to be able to make accommodations in an attempt to meet the customers needs? Such as, "of course we can do that for you Mam." "I'm so sorry you had to wait. I threw in a pie for your inconvenience" Or, "Would you like a free pop while you wait"? Black businesses want to be patronized but often are either out of products or have poor customer service or both. Needless to say I have deleted this Harold's Chicken's app from my phone. I deserve better! read more

ordered food through grub hub. The orde was entered wrong on harolds end. So when driver arrived they claimed they did not get order. Do not order here. They don't take responsibility. read more
