    6 piece wings and fries

    Overall the food was very good, exceeded my expectations, and the cashier was very welcoming and hospitable. I enjoyed it a lot and it was a good introduction to Harold's without having to drive to the city. The place could use a bit of cleaning, but overall food was great and I would definitely be coming back.

    Chicken Wings with mild sauce. Fast, accurate and still my favorite chicken joint.

    We called in our order. The food was ready at the promised time. Everything was fresh and hot. We were greeted as we walked in. Everyone was friendly.

    Gizzard and wing combo with mild sauce

    I was skeptical about patronizing this particular Harolds location due to several of the comments and reviews left by other Yelp members; however, I'm glad that I gave it a try for myself! I am born and raised in the south of Chicago, so Harolds was pretty much a staple in every neighborhood that I went to. Now living far north, the drive to get to this location took me over 30 minutes - so my expectations were high. I was greeted by the cashier as soon as I walked in, and I ordered a gizzard and wing combo. I waited less than 10 minutes and opted to eat there in the restaurant. The staff checked on me to ensure everything was to my liking and my meal was hot, fresh, and flavorful - with a perfect amount of sauce on top. I will certainly return when I'm craving a little bit of my hometown staple!

    Catfish and Wing Combo
    Kim H.

    I got the catfish and wing combo and I would say it was ok. It was hot and made fresh so that definitely helped but we waited over 30 minutes for food when we were the only ones there. We liked the lemon pepper seasoning but I wasn't a huge fan of the mild sauce or the coleslaw that gets served on the side. If you're looking for good wings I wouldn't say don't go but we've had better.

The owner helped us with moving tables around and her, the team, the chef, and the servers were very nice and thoughtful. Also, the ambiance of the location was so clean. It definitely felt like home. As a Filipino American, missing home, all the decor was cool and the photos with close up details was super cool. Now the food? Holy $h!!! It was soo good! I wouldn't have known fusion wings with Filipino flavors was so good! Also, with our half of the group, we shared the 100 family plan with 8 people. It was super worth the price to divide that with 8! 100 wings, 5 flavors of wings, 4 flavors of fries, 2 rice, 2 veggie sticks, and ranch? If I could give them a 20/5 I would! We can't wait to go back!

    Service was prompt and friendly and the estimated wait time of 15 minutes was right on the money…read more The Fire Wok Stir Fried Rice with 2 Flavors comes with 16-18 pieces of boneless chicken (see photo). I thought both flavors were pretty good - Honey Thai Chili and Soy Garlic. There was extra sauce in the recess of the container for each flavor that I used a spoon to pour over the chicken which was necessary, especially for the Soy Garlic since the pieces were on the dry side otherwise. I didn't care much for the fried rice because there was too much sesame oil. The eggrolls were good and the included dipping sauce container was huge! The parmesan garlic fried corn was good too. Overall would try again but would avoid the rice plates and get the chicken by itself. Visit date: 3/13/26

There's a little bit of a wait, but I get that. Also want to give a shoutout to the solid, ventilated takeout boxes. They don't get soggy, and they keep the crunch of the chicken on the drive back home! Ambiance: I can't speak to that because my husband went to pick up our food from this location, but as for the new HMart location, it's what one would expect from a food court situation except newer and shinier. (be forewarned that seating is somewhat limited in that HMart, especially if you go on a weekend.) Price: Prices are what they are these days, and while it feels a bit pricy for wings, it's definitely comparable to BWW/any other local dive. Plus, the wings are BIG. Overall, my husband has gone to get chicken from bb.q Chicken (which stands for "best of the best quality" chicken, he was told!) twice within 2 weeks, so I think that speaks for itself. Go and enjoy!

    I ordered close to their closing time, so this may have contributed to my experience. I ordered a…read morehalf chicken golden original with a side of rice. My understanding is that the original was NOT spicy. But when I went home to eat it, half was spicy, half was not. Granted, they gave me six pieces instead of four, so kudos for giving me extra chicken. Unfortunately, the golden original was rather bland. They don't brine their chicken, so if you're eating here, select one of their flavored options. On top of that, it took 20 minutes for my order to be ready. So not exactly an ideal place if you are in a time crunch. The staff was at least very friendly. I signed up for the rewards program, but couldn't figure out how to add the points from my order to the rewards app. I asked the staff for help. They couldn't figure it out either.

The first is the chicken sandwiches were both inedible because the chicken breast pieces were hard and undercooked. We ended up replacing the the tenders in the sandwiches and throwing out the chicken. Second the Mac and cheese tasted great a few weeks ago but today the sauce / flavor to macaroni ratio was way too high making the Mac and cheese also inedible. They really need quality control to prevent jn the future. I would have rated 1 star but I know they can do better so hoping they use this review to improve their chicken sandwiches and Mac and cheese. Will be getting only the tenders in the future.

Honestly..these could make an argument for being "World Famous." Although their BBQ sauce is slightly on the sweeter side, it is still quite tasty and the meat falls right off the bone. Others at my table that I shared them with seemed to have a very positive reaction to them as well. Our server was super friendly and he did a good job stopping by on us to make sure our dining experience was overall going well. It's your classic sports bar type of restaurant where they keep the tv volume down pretty low. This leaves room for a more casual dining experience (at least this was the case when I went). Thanks VTG for an overall solid dining experience and I will definitely be back for those ribs!

It was so crispy, fresh, the shrimps were perfectly battered (hate when they hide the shrimp between 10 layers of batter), the lettuce was fresh and surprisingly not wilted by the time I got to my destination. I'm not one for cheese on my po boys, and almost got it without, but im actually really glad I kept the cheese on. -Sauces were all great, the Roumalade is where it's at though.

The tarter was a bit less zesty/tart than what I'm used to, but I ended up putting the hot sauce in it and it was delicious -peach cobbler i have yet to try, but it looks so glossy and creamy, will be eating tonight! The service was really just the cherry on top. Elizabeth, the owner, is the one who greeted me, and she was just a doll. She's a sauce queen, like me, so she made sure I try every single sauce! And gave me the peach cobbler on the house as it's my first time there. She's just the sweetest! You can tell her, her husband, and her son just have so much fun together.

She insisted that I upgrade to the plate instead which included cole slaw and potato salad for a small extra fee so I proceeded to lock it in. Shortly after, her husband Kenny greeted me and we had a friendly talk for a while. They hooked me up with an additional side and drink (they did not have to do that) which I thought was a very kind gesture. My food came out prompt, hot and fresh. I ate a few shrimp and fries while there before hitting the road. Everything was crispy, seasoned well and appetizing. I ate the cole slaw and potato salad later at work and enjoyed each. Overall, this is a business I'd certainly return to in the near future. Cost is very competitive and on par with most places so this is a reason to further recommend them. To the owners, thank you for an excellent first impression. Hope to see you again soon!
