The chicken they served was very much delicious and tender. One of the best I have tried from any fast food restaurant.

The service is fast . Always greeted with smiles. Food hot and fresh with minimal wait. Go there each time we're in the area.

Really good experienced, we ordered food 3 minutes before closing and everything was super fresh, highly recommended and the staff is super sweet read more

PDQ Chicken - Crispy Chicken Sandwich - Sandwiches Near Me - Wesley Chapel, Florida

If you're reading this, than this is your fair warning, please find somewhere else to eat. They are a wanna-be chick-fil-a. The service and food is not worth the money! Buyer beware! read more

PDQ has had the best tenders and fries crispy and crunchy. Last night ordered three meals which they changed the boxes from the cardboard type to the plastic containers. The fries were horrible. Soggy and tough to eat. Tenders were also soggy and not crunchy as expected. read more

Food was bad and overpriced. No customer service . They can care less if you eat or bot because your food was bad. We left all the food and never even asked what happen. I wont recommend to visit this restaurant read more

Dinner was on par with expectations. Emily tender/server...Outstanding! Will see you again soon. Have done Holiday meals her for 3 years. Really "on time reservations". And food/ service meets expectations. Thanks for a great experience e over and over again read more

Pretty darn good chicken sandwiches. My husband ordered the limited time BBQ bacon ranch chicken sandwich. He enjoyed it and especially liked the crunch that the slaw added. I ordered the limited time pimento cheese chicken sandwich and it was divine. The chicken was cooked perfectly and was juicy. Their crispy chicken breading is very flavorful. The pimento cheese was full of flavor as well. We got a side of the zucchini fries, and they were alright. Not a lot of flavor here, but better when dipped in creamy garlic sauce. Would try a different side next time. I also wish their lemonade was a little less sweet. Looking forward to our next visit. read more

Great service and tasty chicken. I've also enjoyed the milkshakes! Often find myself going through the drive through when stopping at SAMs for items or getting gas. read more

I've been going to PDQ since before December now. I love the atmosphere and food. I have gotten the tenders tossed in buffalo blue with fries and a drink every time. They are unbelievably good and so satisfying. The employees are always kind and I have never had a problem with PDQ. Great place to eat for cheap with great quality. read more

PDQ Chicken - Chicken tenders and fries - Sandwiches Near Me - Wesley Chapel, Florida

Very delicious food at this restaurant. Spicy chicken tenders are really tasty and fries are a great match. The shakes are absolutely delicious as well, I had the trix shake and it was legendary. All in all very fast service with some great food to go along with it. Thankfully there is a place right by my house :) read more

Walking in, we loved to see the menu on the big new screens. But it changes so fast to advertisements that you can't really read it. Then the counter girl should at least be able to tell us what PDQ sauce is like. Dirty tables everywhere. And the soda machine spit ice all over me, then soda too. So it's been a bit of a disaster. At least the food was good. New spicy nuggets were a win and the 4Rivers sandwich was good too. Love the tater tots. Reviewing in hopes of seeing change. read more

This was my first visit to PDQ. Based on my personal experience with this visit, I am somewhat surprised with all of the favorable reviews here on Yelp?? I really appreciate they have tried to create an atmosphere of quality and 'fine' fast food dining. Stainless steel prep surfaces in an open kitchen style and staff wearing crisp, white chef's coats. My first sensation upon entering the restaurant was the high ambient noise level. The dining room was mostly full of diners. Between table chatter, the lack of acoustic absorbing materials and a man on a microphone announcing orders ready for pick up, it was quite the audio spectacle. My ears were actually begging me for peace and quite after a very short time. I soon felt like I was in a robo-food eatery. All of that gleaming metal. The staff going about their business so methodically. There seemed to be way too many workers stuffed behind the counter, crowded in and banging about. Not a true inter-active, relaxing or personal experience for me. Now, for the food. I ordered the 'Handheld Thanksgiving' style Grilled Turkey Sandwich meal. Overall, it was decent with that hint of cranberrry. But, I felt the meat was just your run of the mill processed fare. It certainly did not remind me of any fresh carved turkey that I have ever had the pleasure to consume. My son ordered the Crispy Chicken Sandwich meal, with just mustard. His sandwich came with mayo, lettuce, tomato and pickle and no mustard. He refused to take it back up and get what he had ordered. I don't blame him, as there was typically a line at the register and we didn't feel like waiting. The fries? Greasy, greasy, greasy! Points deducted immediately for the huge pile of grease leaking out of our fries. Nothing further to be said on these. My overall impression is mediocre, at best. I have highlighted the issues I have with PDQ here in this forum. For my money, I can find a more relaxing and enjoyable dining spot. read more

About a year ago, I stopped eating at Chick-fil-a. PDQ fills my fried chicken sandwich cravings. I love the Buffalo Chicken Sandwich. If it was socially acceptable to hug a sandwich, I would embrace this sandwich tightly. Lord knows, my thighs like holding onto it for weeks. My kids love the create your own Coca Cola machine. PDQ is a great fast food alternative to the usual suspects. Eet mor Chikin...at PDQ. read more

I pulled up to the drive thru 20 min prior to closing. Not my usual habit but I had quite a day and this was when I could finally get home and eat dinner. Fully expected to get some attitude from employees for coming that late like most places. I found the exact opposite with Jaire and Frank!! They were not just normal friendly but completely genuine and impressed me so much I had to write a review just about them! Give these great young people a high five (maybe virtually :) when you see them because they a definitely stand outs for service! Thank you JAIRE & FRANK for turning my day around, may good karma follow you in return!! read more

Seriously what isn't their to love about good quality food? I mean it's fresh, it's amazing, its pride and quality. The sauces you can seriously pour them in a tub and swim in them they are so good. Don't bother reading these posts go for yourself. Oh side not it's chicken tenders and chicken tender sandwiches but everyone loves chicken. Sorry fil-a but this place rocks!!! read more

**Update 06/23/2018: Was contacted very shortly after writing my review- they said that the Operations Director would reach out to me to discuss our experience. Still waiting to hear. They don't set any limits with clientele! Ate here on 06/08 in the afternoon. A man and woman came in with a large black dog. The dog was leashed, but what we saw them do was nothing we had ever seen before in terms of animal etiquette for even service animals-- The couple were allowed to let the dog eat PDQ food from an open PDQ wrapper off the floor. It's one thing to allow service dogs- But the management allowing a dog to be fed PDQ food indoors from an open wrapper off the floor was disgusting. We have to think twice about returning to this location, because as good as the food is it for sure cannot be sanitary. The people should have been told to feed their dog elsewhere- even outside on the patio. If the manager wants to challenge the occurrence, check your video. read more

I love PDQ's chicken tenders, but I certainly don't love finding a large chunk of walnut in my chocolate milkshake, especially considering I have a severe nut allergy. Eat the tenders, avoid the shakes. Like how does that even happen anyways? It's a chocolate milkshake. read more

PDQ Chicken - Found a nut in my chocolate milkshake... - Sandwiches Near Me - Wesley Chapel, Florida

Love, love, love this place!!!! So my first time here I wasn't impressed and I actually was embarrassed when they called my name out on the microphone! Im so glad I gave them another try. I go here at least twice a month or more. I not only eat but I do work there sometimes. I like it because of the big tables and the food. One of my favorite features, is the hand wash area outside of the bathrooms. I like this because of convenience. I'm one of those people, who use paper towels just to open the bathroom door after washing their hands. Their food is always fresh. I love the sweet Siracha sauce. They have hand cut zucchini fries that are OUTSTANDING!!! read more

PDQ Chicken - My new addiction!!!! - Sandwiches Near Me - Wesley Chapel, Florida

Awful. A "family meal" costs $40. The only thing my whole family got to eat was lukewarm chicken strips that tasted like they had been reheated numerous times. The family size sides are a joke. What family shares 2 regular size fries and one portion of corn? Not to mention, the sauces for the meal were thrown into the bag and three of them broke open, getting sauce all over everything. Never again read more

Update - Now that the dinning room is open we tried again. I'm sad to say after coming here for years & finding it to be fantastic all that is left is the friendly staff. They are understaffed, so overall service slow. The chicken is obviously not fresh ie it has been sitting around getting cold & greasy. The menu has been reduced The price is simply not worth the quality they are serving. We will try again in few months, but for now don't waste your money. read more

Love their chicken!!! And that is their specialty of course, and we love it!!! Very juicy inside, crispy outside. The grilled chicken is very good too, and their sandwiches with it are delicious!! 4 stars for the fries as they really need to be improved, not sure where they go wrong with those, but we rarely order them, so doesn't bother us too much. If you can, just stick with the sandwiches or other meals without the fries, which would be enough anyway, good size portions read more

Today was my first experience at a PDQ, and I thought they nailed it. As a fan of authentic Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches I think they got close, maybe the closest to what I've had outside of Buffalo - but it still wasn't perfect. The 4 stars are for the overall experience and the details of what they're doing. Here's a short list of why 4 stars... 1. They toss the chicken in the sauce instead of treating it like another condiment. This is so important to achieving an authentic Buffalo Chicken experience. 2. The blueberry coleslaw was great. I'd get it every time. 3. The fries were great, so yes get both the fries and coleslaw. 4. The chicken was great, I'd take a PDQ sandwich over Chick-fil-A sandwich any day. 5. The service was fast and friendly. Ok, so now my critique about the Buffalo Chicken sandwich... - They combine the hot sauce with the blue cheese ahead of time. Bad idea. I love a stronger taste of each in a traditional Chicken Finger Sub, and combining them mutes them both. - The chicken is a little too thick. The flatness of Buffalo Chicken Fingers are important to achieving the right balance. - The sandwich needed cheese. I just called Jim's in Buffalo and they use a Swiss/American blend. I was def missing that texture. read more

Really good chkn sandwiches, love the waffle fries. Fist time visiting this franchise, would def visit again on the road for a quick meal.

It was ok. Nothing that made me feel like I wanted to go back. Plus is can be on healthy side if you choose right. Open kitchen concept is cool but makes it very noisy. read more

First time coming here and I must say I'm impressed. I loved the chicken and the best waffle fries I have ever tasted. The customer service and the went above and beyond. Nice layout with plenty of tables. We will definitely be back. read more

While out looking for lunch the other day my sister and I decided to stop in and order some PDQ and I am so glad we did. After looking over the menu I ordered the crispy chicken tender salad with honey mustard and my sister ordered the 3 strip chicken tender meal with fries also with honey mustard. The food came out quickly and extra hot (and my salad was chilled just right). I liked how they had already cut up the chicken for my salad and placed it on top. It was a very good meal and the honey mustard was so tasty! My sister's meal was good too-I think their 3 strip meal is just enough to feed 1 person(possibly 2 depending on how hungry you are). The only complaint that we had was that the fries were a little wilted, but nonetheless we still enjoyed them and used the HM sauce as a great condiment to enhance the flavor. PDQ really does a great job with their customer service, efficiency, and food items. Next time I am home visiting I'll be sure to come back and try something else. read more

After picking up my brother at the tuckstop on his Birthday, I wanted to take him for Lunch. Since he'd never been to PDQ, it was my choice to go there. We ordered the 4 strip basket and my usual salad with bacon and almonds added. The food was up quickly and tasted as fresh and delicious as usual. I LOVE PDQ. I really wish there was a location closer to Tarpon Springs. I hate that I have to go to Tampa or Clearwater to enjoy this place. read more

First time here and I loved it! Very similar taste to Raising Cane's chicken and has the same concept of menu. Fries are more like steak 'n shake and they give a lot of them. They have several sauces to pick from and are all very good! Love the set up of having a wash station to wash your hands for before/after eating. Staff was very friendly and fast! Looking forward to eating here again! read more

My son loves this place! It is always his first choice when we are grabbing a meal on the go. I personally am just not a huge fried chicken tender person but I do love their new spicy chicken nuggets and enjoy their Greek salad as well. I find the quality to be consistently good And the food is always hot and fresh. The only time that we had a tiny issue was when we first used the new app and ordered the food for pick up. They forgot to call our name for a bit and it was sitting in the locker. We have used the app several times since and never had an issue. I like that they do send some good deals it can be used on the app. read more

Not giving PDQ 5 stars just because it's considered fast food just is not fair. The chicken fingers here are just amazing and all of their sauces are homemade and really really good. I wish they had more of these around town the inside was very clean, and the employees were very polite. Yes I'm shocked that I gave this place five stars but it is worthy! read more

Been here several times now. The food is always good, their chicken is moist , never dry and the place is clean and well maintained. Staff seem to be on the ball and they have people walking around constantly cleaning tables and asking if you need anything. Its fast food with a restaurant feel. read more

PDQ Chicken - Servers at pdq - Sandwiches Near Me - Wesley Chapel, Florida

PDQ is a hit or miss chain. This location is just okay, as the quality tends to fluctuate. The chicken is steadily on point. The fries have been served up pretty stale, and the salad was a mess. I will say the customer service is excellent. Every cashier I've encountered is very pleasant. The drive-thru line moves fast enough. Location-wise, there's a u-turn involved when I leave but it's pretty low key in the afternoon. There are better, healthier lunch options in the area but this is one of the few drive-thru's, perfect for lazy days. read more

Excellent...excellent...excellent. Great alternative to Chik-fil-A and a bit better too. They are always adding new things to their menus. Everything is freshly made. Mostly chicken based...good strips..good nuggets...good sandwiches...good salads. Shakes are superior and one is always seasonal (get the apple pie shake if they have it...comes with a large straw so the chunks of apple can be add with the scrumptious ice cream). Always quick service and very friendly. Two of the fancy soda dispensers. Also highly recommend everyone of their sauces, although order extra because they've reduced their container size (they are free). Keep up the great work with both your food and your employee's actually caring, something you don't get at a lot of affordable places. read more

I consider PDQ the "answer" to Chick fil a. The food comes out hot and fresh...also tasty! I tried the fries which are thin, crispy and seasoned. I also had the nuggets which are white meat and cooked perfectly. I also tried the honey butter sandwich which is by far my favorite. Oh, and I love anyplace that has a coke freestyle machine! I had to knock off a star for two reasons. First the wait is way too long. While I appreciate the freshness of the food I'm not really sure I'd consider it to be fast food. With only about 4 cars in line it took around 10 min to get my food. When comparing to chick fil a (and I am) this was way too slow...more take out that fast food. Reason number two is that the sauces are just okay...they have a lot but none of them pair with the chicken quite right. Luckily the chicken is good enough to eat all on its own! read more

PDQ Chicken - Sandwiches Near Me - Wesley Chapel, Florida

Totally, Totally, totally disappointed. I ordered a bacon cheese burger with fries. When my meal arrived I noticed both the burger and fries we barely warm. After two bites into my burger I noticed the texture was off for a medium cooked burger. At this point I looked at the burger and discovered what appeared to be a burger that wasn't cooked properly and the middle was raw. After confirming this with my wife we motioned to the server. He took the burger back to the manager, and they remade my meal. The manager didn't even have the decency to come talk to us. This is not acceptable. My first and lat time here at PJ's. read more

Don't eat here if you grew up eating at Chick-Fil-a. The only thing good we ate was the nacho tater tots.

Ordered pdq through uber eats. The food itself was good and so was the milkshake, however, i have an issue paying for 10 chicken tenders and only getting 8 in the box. The box was filled, so maybe they just assumed 10 were in there, but just felt like a shortcut was taken. read more

I cannot say enough good things about this PDQ, or any of them for that matter, but this one in particular! My son has Autism, is an extremely picky eater, and PDQ is his favorite!! We eat there a lot. Jason, one of the managers, always makes us feel welcome, fist bumps with my son, in fact he even saved him a PDQ shirt one time. They are patient and compassionate with people with special needs. The food is fresh, fast, and delicious. They are always offering free samples and once our whole meal was free when their computers malfunctioned. Mike walks around and picks up trays, always with a kind word, and remembers our names. We love this place!! read more

So bad the kids didn't even like the pizza and I decided to leave my first restaurant review ever. We ordered 8-10 dishes, left almost all the food and went to another restaurant. Overpriced and not good at all. Service was ok they brought out 5 dishes first and 3 dishes much later so we didnt eat together (we were waiting but food was getting cold). They charge everyone 20% service-as a european where we dont need to tip because restaurant workers are paid living wages, this seems strange but ok. Due to the food, not worth it! read more
