First time ever at PDQ and I was not disappointed with the chicken sandwich and those famous waffle fries. The sandwich was so tasty that I purchased a second one togo. Parking was easy right in front of the restaurant. The menu was very simple to figure out what I wanted to eat. The staff were friendly and the store was updated and clean. The fountain drink machine offered several liquid options including water if you didn't want to pay for a soda. read more

This place used to be decent, but it's easy to see why they're closing locations. $7.19 for a 3-piece chicken tender is ridiculous. I can get a fresh, much better half sub for the same price at Publix. They've lost me as a customer. read more

The food is below mediocre. The fries are extremely chewy & unsatisfying. The bread is even more chewy & tastes awful. & the chicken tenders are terrible. It's actually kind of shocking that all 3 staple items from this place suck. I very rarely think fast food places actually suck, but this place is one of the worst. Don't believe me? Give it a try! read more

I visited PDQ and overall, it was just okay. The food was alright, but it didn't taste as fresh as I expected. The fries especially were not fresh & hot. This was surprising considering the restaurant had only been open for an hour or so before we arrived. Service was fine and the place was clean, but the food itself didn't wow me. read more

I've been coming to this PQD for over 6 years now. But this experience was WOW. So I order and everything went fine. I pay blah blah blah. The young male at the first window was nice and to be honest my order was simple no substations. I get to the second window. Another male asks me to pull ahead and he'll bring it out. (Btw he only passed me one of my lemonades.) (I kindly remind him I ordered too.) no big deal. 27 minutes later and still no food. 6 cars had gone through the line and left. OOOH AND MY ORDER WAS 2 5 tenders meal, side of broccoli and a jack spicy sandwich. Sooo now I have to park and go inside (which again no problem, but now I have to unbuckle my son from his car seat.) But here's where it all goes south. I walk in, it's a graveyard. Just two old ladies paying with a gift card with the manager, I think, he's saying oh it's not working. Also when I went inside none of the employees acknowledge me. Which all looked miserable as hell. Then I see the young male that took my order and yes I waved him over. (And again I know that waving employees down is rudeeeee because I'm a server but common.) So I say to the guy, "can you see what's up with my order?" His response, " I don't work this area." Are you kidding me....HELLO YOU WORK HERE RIGHT. WOW unbelievable. And yes I did snatch the sauces from the only women employee that was doing her job. My apologies to her. Everyone else yikes. Maybe not work in hospitality, because you obviously don't care. read more

We ordered 2,chicken sandwiches, zucchini fries, and regular fries. We waited 25 minutes for our order and when it was brought out, everything was cold! Nothing was even luke warm! We took it back to the counter, and got a refund. ( We were wondering why we were the ONLY customers in the restaraunt, and it was at 5:45pm!) Will NEVER go back! read more

First time here. What sold me was their mission statement. I'm not a chicken tender person at all. The times I've had it at other places, it's usually dry. PDQ changed that for me. Shared a basket as a light lunch with my bf. Tenders were juicy and tender. Breading had good seasoning. Waffle fries were crisp. Tried the garlic and PDQ sauce and they were great! Washed it down with an Oreo milkshake with a cherry on top. The whip cream was nice and tasted house made-not too sweet. Happy to gulp that-tasted like real ice cream. Will be back many times in the future! Can't wait to try the chicken sandwiches. read more

Good food, fresh food. Decent service, can be worked upon. Chaotic ambiance. Very low options

Excelente comida y atención de parte de todos los trabajadores pero en especial de NDA. Me encanta este lugar lo recomiendo muchísimo.

11/23/19- On Federal Hwy on the West side , before Oakland Park Blvd. Signage When walk in on those big Video boards , plus at register as well . Order at counter. Lots of options with calorie count.

G had the crispy chicken meal which came with also Lettuce and tomato and a pickle on it . Included was FF and a fountain drink only $8.19. . They have sweet and unsweetened tea.

For the gods sake PLEASE CHANGE YOUR FRY OIL!! We were happy to see the nugs were back after the last year or so and we rarely eat here to begin with but it's Sunday.... So yeah, you get it. The lady taking our order was lovely and we even rounded up to your charity, but never again. Drove off with 2 disgusting meals today. The tots were dark brown and tasted abhorrent, this oil must be weeks old, and so I question the overall cleanliness and care of this location. This is our last trip to PDQ and it has been permabanned like so many other places in this area. Our drinks were not full, one of our sauces must of got the last squirt because it was 3/4 empty, and we were given two sauces of the same type by mistake wanted honey mustard and honey bbq but got 2 honey mustards instead. The chicken was also soaked in the old oil so we ended up throwing it away and making a sandwich instead. We couldn't even eat our meals, it was so unpleasant. I cannot recommend this place. It used to be an acceptable alternative as infrequently as we visited, maybe a couple times a year but also the menu keeps changing and my favs have faded over the years, specially the zuch fries and Tom+feta. I guess it's no big loss after all. read more

I went to the store to pick up my order and the woman at the drive-through payment section was coughing and not wearing a mask on a day when we had over 50,000 cases of Covid in one day. I called to speak to the manager and she said the CDC mandates she come to work even with a cough or Covid and they cannot mandate her to wear a mask. At the next window, the girl that gave me my food said I only get one sauce for a 12 piece nugget order, even though the app indicates 2 sauce. The chicken was also over cooked and barely warm. I am blown away how a store can go downhill so fast. read more

Went here for Mother's Day, online said we can buy an adult meal and get another one free. When we got to the restaurant they told us it had to be a kids meal and then you get the adult meal free, they refused to follow what the promotion said online. Got home and our fries were cold and harder than bricks (we live 10 minutes away). Bit into my sandwich and it was completely raw. Worked at pdq for 2 years while in high school and I was a corporate trainer, definitely will never be back to this location again. read more

PDQ Chicken - Cripsy Chicken Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland Park, Florida

If you are in the mood for a good chicken tender, you've come to the right place. When I am in the mood for a good tender with some good sauces, this is my jam. I swing by, get a 3 piece with waffle fries and a drink and I am set. The tenders are consistent. I really enjoy the crispy ones over the grilled, but my better half enjoys the grilled ones over the crispy. read more

PDQ Chicken - Waffle Fries - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland Park, Florida

I love PDQ! There, I said it. It seems like every freaking Sunday once lunchtime rolls around I ALWAYS want Chic Fil A. Enter PDQ! They are open on Sundays!!!!!!! I can get my fried chicken fixxx... No, but seriously, keeping it real.. PDQ offers an awesome assortment of freshly made sauces to accompany their sandwiches, tenders, and sides! My fav is probably their ranch! It is uniquely PDQ, and extremely tasty. LOVE that they offer broccoli or apple slices with caramel sauce as sides! An even better deviation from fries?- their zucchini sticks! YUM!!!!!!!! Little sticks from heaven. I must emphasize though that their fries are absolutely awesome as well! They're more of the shoe string style- and you can definitely tell they are fresh. Now for the entrees.. love their salads! (Although I can say Chic Fil A offers serious competition here). However, they destroy the competition in the sandwich game! The buffalo blue is my favorite fast food item to eat! Sooooo good. The tenders are so perfect, and the house made blue cheese takes it over the top. So far, this particular PDQ is my favorite location as well. I generally hit them up on Saturdays with the whole family, and the last time we went the cashier actually asked my name because he noticed I was a regular. Little things like that at a fast food chain make a BIG difference. They always carry our food to our table too so that we don't have to get up from the kiddos. I went back and forth between clicking four or five stars. Ultimately, I decided to commit to four, but truthfully it's at least a 4.5er. read more

PDQ Chicken - Sandwiches Near Me - Oakland Park, Florida

This place does chicken strips. Most of their menu items revolve around chicken strips as the main ingredien: chicken strip salads, chicken strip sandwiches, chicken strip baskets - I'm sure you see where this is going. The chicken is usually moist, with a medium batter. The coating is crunchy with pepper and herbs you can see, like a proper fried chicken should have. They have a fairly good variety of sides to go with your order. I lament the passing of their coleslaw. I loved it, not sweet with blueberries. It was different and delicious and not on the menu any more. I have ordered the roasted broccoli side twice because I really like broccoli. I'm not sure why they bother calling it roasted. It is more like lightly steamed broccoli and has never had those lovely, tasty brown tips on the buds like the picture has. I won't order it anymore because it's just steamed broccoli and when I eat out I try to order things I don't make or can't make as well at home. I had hope for the chili-lime corn but it was disappointing as well. It came with tons of paprika and looked like it had potential but the flavor was missing. My favorite side is the zucchini fries. The serving is enough to share between three people, making the upcharge more than worth it. They are seemingly healthy because it's zucchini, right? And lastly, they are a wonderful vehicle for the creamy garlic dipping sauce which is probably the whole reason I keep coming back to PDQ. The creamy garlic dipping sauce is a thing of delight. It's creamy and garlicy and sunshine and puppies and rainbows. It is by far my favorite dipping sauce available anywhere and takes the chicken from good to great. read more

Sorry but Philip C. is not alone. I definitely got food poisoning as a result of eating at this place. Such a shame too because everything tasted fine during my dining. I came to the soft opening on Saturday, and the staff was great. While waiting for my friends to arrive, I overheard one of the brand's managers telling patrons about their dedication to quality and fresh ingredients (PDQ = People Dedicated to Quality). He said they make everything on-site, so nothing is frozen. The menu is simple - lots of chicken options. Not sure if it's supposed to be a Chik-Fil-A competitor. Anyhow, I ordered the chicken tenders meal and the blueberry coleslaw. with a lemonade. They have an apple pie shake which I wanted to try but decided against it. I was a fan until getting sick. I've eaten at my fair share of restaurants (5 year Yelper) so I'd say my stomach can take quite a beating, but I would suggest customers be wary because this was the first time I've had food poisoning in almost 7 years. read more

Food is (usually) okay but overpriced for what it is, people are friendly, management of staff seems lacking. We were in a long/unmoving line at the drive through exasperated by the fact that there were four staff members visible for an extended period of time chatting in a group laughing over something on one of their phones (if the line was so long, couldn't a few of them have been expediting or somehow moving the process along?) and when we finally got to the window they had ALL disappeared there was no one there to take our order. Lemon salad dressing on Greek salad at first sampling was delicious but I quickly realized after pouring it over my salad that they had used basically the whole bottle of lemon juice. Ingredients are somewhat sparse for the price, but I took it home and added avocado, etc. Chicken is always good, but it would be pretty inexcusable if it wasn't. Their one saving grace is their milkshakes - especially the monthly special ones - and their milkshake "happy hour" where shakes are half priced! read more

We ordered take out a few weeks ago and the tenders were over cooked and dry. We have been customers for years and for that reason we tried again today!

Flat out, I really don't like chains. They look chainy, feel chainy, have a chainy taste about them and come with a "one size fits all" type of food and service. Individuality is lost in an atmosphere of sterilized blandness and for me the disturbing look of similar acting similar looking paper hated underpaid unqualified part time service help. Most of them I usually never go to, don't rate or if I do only manage a sympathetic Two Stars, however, I found PDQ a rather refreshing change from the normality of the chain. The help staff was really some of the best, most cheerful, pleasant and polite I've ever encountered and I actually marvel in how well trained, organized and efficient they are particularly considering that PDQ has only recently opened. The structure and interior consitutes a huge space that is architecturally pleasing with a bright refreshing super clean décor about it with ample parking offering spaces that, refreshingly enough, haven't been scrimped upon or minimized in size. As for the food, the menu and offerings are basic and seemingly rather abbreviated in what it encompasses. I went for what they hold out as being the "signature" chicken tenders along with a Buffalo blue sauce and blue berry coleslaw. I was surprised to find the tenders tasty, nicely prepared, far better than what one might find at a KFC but as far as their Buffalo blue sauce, only OK, with my suggestion that they might best go back to the drawing board taking some hints from the Buffalo Wing creator, Theresa Bellissimo. As for the blue berry coleslaw, the coleslaw itself was pretty darn good, but my question would be does topping a rather ordinary coleslaw with 7 (yes, I counted them) skimpy insignificant blue berries an honest, real to life blue berry coleslaw make? I would say not. Now how to rate PDQ? As a restaurant, no, because it is but it isn't since it's really a fast food chain. So, as a fast food chain store and though I can't really say that I'm a fan but maybe more a person of generous heart, I'm giving them Four since they really do seem to me better than the KFC's, McDonald's and the like. read more

This place is right across from the movie theater, so I figured why not grab a quick dinner? The food came fast, right after I washed my hands with lavender soap just next to the cash register and not having to enter the bathroom. Cool concept! I grabbed my unsweetened green tea (ok, I added Splenda this time.) to go along with my grilled chicken sandwich and blueberry coleslaw (not mayonnaise-y, win-win!) Expect someone with a mic calling out your name with the order... You'd think they were about to do a karaoke... Then, an employee named Devon wanted to take away our tray with finished meals. I didn't expect it because I was going to do that myself. So nice to see that kind of service. I appreciate it! As we left, we saw a board with bean bags and of course hubby throws the bean bag at me by accident.. Too silly. Overall, I felt good and happy to go to the movies after this quick dining experience. Thank you, PDQ! read more

Yum! Finally, an option other than that other chain. Take that Chik-fil-aaaaaa! PDQ's have been popping up around here faster than that ever-so-popular coffee chain. I've driven by a few locations many times and decided to finally give it a go. Let's start off with the name... In my opinion you need to work on your marketing. The name doesn't give you the slightest hint of what kind of restaurant this place actually is. I found out only because a friend told me how much they loved it and that all they serve is chicken tenders and a variety of dishes using chicken tenders (sandwiches, salads, etc). When you first walk into the establishment you'll notice a very open floorplan, view of the kitchen, lightwoods throughout the interior, and plenty of lighting. It's very open and "fresh" feel. The service was great and I ordered the cashier's favorite dish: the buffalo chicken sandwich with fries. Te sangwich comes with two chicken tenders tossed in a pretty tasty buffalo sauce, stacked on a bun with lettuce. The sauce was tangy, but not very spicy... Probably a good thing when serving large amounts of people. They do, however, have hot sauce available of you like to spice things up. Fries are fresh cut style and you have an option of different types of sauces to choose from (for the tenders and fries)... I selected the creamy garlic and chipotle barbecue sauce - both tasty. One bonus to point out... Not only do they have fresh squeezed lemonade as a beverage option, but they have SWEET TEA! Yes, they have delicious southern style sweet tea, which is near impossible to find in South Florida! I thoroughly enjoyed my lunch and will definitely come back. Give it a try! read more

I wonder why this restaurant is only 3 stars on yelp at the time I am writing this review. I had a fantastic experience here my first time ever and definitely plan on coming back in the near future. I had some chicken tenders and the grilled turkey sandwich, both of which were delicious. The fresh cut french fries were fried to perfection. The turkey sandwich is a nice concept as it combines a couple slices of thick roasted turkey and thanksgiving style fixins. Simply amazing. read more

I had not been to PDQ since they first opened. On my first visit I thought the place was pretty average but on this latest visit I was quite pleased with the experience! The interior is very clean and seems a bit more upscale than the average fast food joint. I like the hand washing station. However, what really impresses me are the variety of food selections. Yes, you can still get the standard Chicken Tenders or Chicken Sandwich. I have heard they are excellent! There are also some really nice salads. The Fruit Harvest Salad (with apples, craisins, candied walnuts, & blueberry-ginger vinaigrette) interested me. But what really caught my eye were the "Bowls", Thai Peanut, Queso Crunch, and Saucy. I went with the Saucy Bowl with Grilled Chicken, white rice, roasted broccoli, chlle-lime corn, avocado and black beans. The dish was so flavorful and filling. Definitely more upscale than you would expect from a fast food chicken place! My son loved his Honey Butter Chicken Sandwich and Husband was very impressed with his Grilled Pineapple Chicken Sandwich. I like the variety of sides available besides fries including broccoli, corn, Granny Smith apples, zucchini fries and tater tots. I also enjoyed the iced green tea. Definitely would like to see more locations across Broward County! read more

I understand the long wait to get attended but very unsanitary place. EVERY table was sticky, that means they aren't using new towels or something.

I like the chicken and I ordered a salad on this visit. It's a pretty large dining room and there were plenty of tables but finding one that wasn't dirty was a challenge. There were several staff members but none of them felt like wiping a table. I am including a pic of the drink station. It's really a turn off to eat your meal when the restaurant is so unkempt. I had to repeat my order a few times to the cashier and I had to ask a few times for more salad dressing. This was pretty unpleasant. I had done nasty lettuce in my salad. read more

New chicken in town and I thought I'd try it out. My drive thru experience was efficient, and the menu was simple and nicely laid out. I opted for the 3 piece Fresh Tenders Meal with the blueberry coleslaw and [for an insignificant up charge] a large lemonade. Three little fried chicken strips looked so, yes, insignificant at the bottom of the huge box it was packaged in. I chose the "Sweet Heat" sauce, and was disappointed to try it and find that it was nothing more than a french dressing with a touch of spice.. and it didn't smother the chicken, just sat alongside it in one of those tiny plastic condiment cups. Awe. Sipping on the lemonade, my mouth was struck by a syrupy sweetness and that "from concentrate" taste of lemons. It hit hard, and there wasn't a trace of fruit pulp. Last but not least, the cole slaw: a simple & customary cabbage blend, very light on mayo - almost to the point of being "dry" with a few blueberries tossed in. Not bad, not great, and not special. $8.15 later and I'm still hungry. Maybe I should have opted for a Buffalo Bleu sandwich meal with fries to save a few dollars and allow for some starch to help fill my hungry tummy. I'd sum this up as a good place to treat your kids to an after school snack if you're in the neighborhood; as for the rest of us, well ... read more

This was not my favorite place. I've gotta give it props by saying the place was clean as a whistle and staff was very nice. That's always a plus. It just didn't do it for me. I think going into it I assumed (which does me no good) that there would be more healthier options to choose from. In general, there aren't many menu options at all. I get it, it's a chicken finger place, but no non-breaded items? Not many side items to choose from. Ordering was the most difficult thing to do because I felt the menu was so small. I finally ordered the chicken Cesar because the chicken wasn't fried, however, the dressing was so potent. There is Cesar dressing where you can't tell there are anchovies in it, this was not one of those dressings. Thank god I had chewing gum in the car. I would go again if someone wanted to but I wouldn't seek it out. It really just wasn't for me. read more
