This place is AMAZING. It is perfect in every way! The food is incredible. The breading on the chicken was so flavorful and portions were large. The dripping potatoes were to die for. I liked the mac & cheese, though it was more similar to buttered noodles for me, and I liked the Brussels sprouts. The chicken sandwich and potatoes really stood out as unique and excellent dishes. Everyone working was extremely friendly and the ambiance was very nice. On a Wednesday evening, there was soft French/jazz music playing that felt comforting and homey, and we did not struggle to chat over the music. The vibes were up. They also seem to have a lot of regulars. I literally texted everyone I know after this meal to discuss how good it was and I can't wait to be back!! read more

Loved this spot for a quick and healthy lunch to go! Was needing something a little lighter, as a visitor, after a previous day of being a tourist with bagels, pizza, etc. Popped in here with a friend and ordered to share - Chicken Combo Plate which comes with 2 sides and a choice of sauce. We got the Cucumber Health Salad (cucumber, cabbage, dill, carrot) and the Sautéed Kale (capers, dill, mustard). And also a smaller side of the Mac and Cheese. Ended up getting two sauces as well, the Salsa Verde and White BBQ. I would get this exact order again. One order was enough food to feed both of us for lunch and then some. The chicken is delicious, with and without sauce. Of the two, I liked the salsa verde especially. Bright and acidic. The two veggie sides really hit the spot! Between the cold crunchy cucumber salad and the hot kale, the combo of flavors and textures was great. They truly stuffed the to go container with mac and cheese as well, and this added an extra fun element to the meal! Not sure the mix of cheeses in this, but it's delicious, and pasta nice and al dente. Excellent lunch! Friendly and attentive counter service, and very fast to get us our food and on our way. Cute interior and would be nice to eat in as well, but perhaps not in larger groups. read more

Food was pretty good. Almost didn't get the Mac and cheese because some reviews said it wasn't that good. I'm so glad I got because it was my favorite thing. Wasn't dry at all and the cheese was yummy. The chicken was kind of dry though and the kale was ok but not my favorite. The cauliflower was spicy and yummy but was too greasy. Would definitely eat the Mac and cheese again. Good amount of food for the price. read more

I was drawn in by the sign outside promoting their Thanksgiving sandwich. I ordered it to go with Brussel sprouts. It's a very cute restaurant inside, fairly small. The sandwich was very good, could've used a bit more chicken though. I didn't love the way the Brussel sprouts were cooked, only pan fried. They needed to be cooked more for me and maybe a bit crispier. read more

My girlfriend and I did a takeout from here. We got chicken vegetable soup, garlic baguette, and beet salad. The soup tasted great and hearty. We dunked the garlic baguette into the soup, and it was great (see my photo)! Their soup not only tastes good but also healthy in that they don't add sugar. Highly recommended read more

What a great new place to add to my rotation on the uws. Great quality chicken, decent size portions, and tons of sides to choose from. I got the mac & cheese, which was really good, and the beet salad. Mac & cheese was cooked perfectly Al dente with perfect choice of cheese. Beats were crisp and refreshing. My only complaint is that the garlic sauce that I ordered wasn't a sauce. It was essentially a thick paste I don't really know what I'm supposed to do with that. Very good and looking forward to having again. read more

Great little spot! We stopped in on a Tuesday and were immediately seated, but we got lucky--a couple parties had to be turned away after. We both got the chicken platter and tried the mac and cheese, brussel sprouts, cauliflower, garlic bread, and potatoes. I thought the potatoes and brussel sprouts could have been crispier, but loved the mac and cheese. The chicken was unreal. Awesome service in this place, totally loved the local vibe and how kind and friendly everyone was. Will absolutely be back! read more

We need to visit. Delivery was excellent. We ordered two chicken sandwiches and two sides. Everything was excellent. If you like chicken, you should either come to or order from Poulet San Tete. 5/5 read more

I stopped by lPoulet San Tête to try their seed oil free rotisserie chicken with a friend and it was amazing. The atmosphere is well curated. The seating and spacing felt more intimate for family or dates but also for solo dining. They also have outdoor dining. You can see the rotisserie chicken cooking behind the counter. My favorites were the chicken baguette and chicken dripping potatoes. I loved how the chicken was tender & juicy. The sandwich came together really well. I don't know what was better because those potatoes hit the spot. Maybe some of the best potatoes I've ever had. The staff were welcoming and helpful. This is definitely a hidden gem in my books. read more

I love this place! The food is delicious all the way around. But the main focus of this review today is going to be the CHICKEN SOUP! When you need GOOD chicken soup..... I mean VERY GOOD chicken soup, this is the place that you will find what you need. The broth is rich and tasty. Great variety of vegetables. And the chicken.... Well, their chicken is superb. (I mean, that's the main point of their business, isn't it?) So if you want chicken soup, this place will not disappoint you. As for other things, the roasted chicken is magnificent. The "dripping potatoes"... Incredibly tasty. Other things, too. Sautéed kale. Mac & cheese. Really, from here, just find your own way forward. On top of that, the staff is great. And they cook everything out in the open, so you can see how clean it is. This is a gem of a place on the upper west side. read more

Small and cozy spot. The decor was nice, and the service was good. The menu is concise. However, the food was unspectacular. Everything about it just fell flat. I ordered the red beans and rice bowl with a side of mac and cheese and Brussels sprouts. The bowl tasted like pre-packaged quality. It didn't taste bad, but it also didn't taste like restaurant-quality food. read more

This was my first visit, so I can't review comprehensively, but... I came up here from the Village with one objective: to try the Chicken Gobbler. I'd been on a bit of a hunt for Thanksgiving-type sandwiches, and someone on r/FoodNYC enthusiastically recommended this one. Their enthusiasm was justified. This was the best sandwich of its kind that I'd found in the city, beating out other places that I'd thought were excellent, and it didn't even use turkey! What it did have was rotisserie chicken, stuffing, apple cider vinegar onions, and cranberry sauce, on a great baguette. The stuffing was standout--no prepackaged factory stuff here--and the cranberry sauce was given a perfect light application that didn't overtake everything else, as sometimes happens. And the chicken au jus was a very nice touch. They don't have this specific item at the Village location, but hey, it's just a few minutes up on the 1, and so worth it. If you want the top tier of Thanksgiving sandwiches in NYC, come up there. read more

*This review is for delivery* I've been craving what I guess I'll call "Thanksgiving sandwiches" -- that is, some combination of bird, stuffing, cranberry sauce on bread. The Poulet San Tete one is chicken -- that's fine; it's better even. And damn, the sandwich did not disappoint. I also ordered the rotisserie chicken baguette, which was also really great -- loved that it came on garlic bread. It had the perfect ratio of meat to vegetable to cheese -- something that seems easy but so many places get wrong. I'll definitely order from here again (although it's going to be hard to choose something other than a sandwich -- both of these were so good). The chicken itself was excellent. Moist, well cooked and seasoned. Husband found a small bone in his half of the sandwich. Ugh, but also yay for actually cooking and shredding a bird as opposed to places that serve some weird compressed chicken parts, masquerading as breast. Food came quickly. read more

We ordered delivery from this spot for dinner a few nights ago. The delivery was fast -- we live maybe 10 blocks from the restaurant which was good. The online delivery system was easy, there was a built in delivery fee that we were not aware of. We ordered one thing, a whole rotisseries chicken deboned, it was 40$ with the delivery fees etc, normally 27$ and 3$ to be deboned, and 2 $ for a tiny side of salsa verde. The chicken itself was tiny, so small that I in fact called the restaurant inquiring where the other half of it was, and they said that was the entire chicken. definitely NOT worth the price, the chicken was also poorly seasoned, needed salt, and more flavor. It was juicy, however. Extremely fatty if you like that sort of chicken, but there were definitely bones that we ended up having to pick them out. Definitely not worth it and I will not be back, I took the chicken the next day for lunch and it was consistent from the night before, would not recommend. read more

The chicken baguette au jus ($17) is basically a chicken dip sandwich with broccoli rabe, and I liked it. We took one for takeout, and there were globs of melted provolone studded with crunchy, pleasantly bitter broccoli rabe. The garlic baguette had softened, but it still withstood the aggressive dunking into the cup of oniony, savory, chicken dripping dipping sauce. The counter service was nice, and what I saw of the dine-in space looked comfortable. Real silverware and dishes, someone enjoying a proper glass of red wine. I'd want to dine in sometime. read more

The Chicken Bagette au Jus is an elite sandwich. The juiciness--even pre-Jus dunk--is sublime and the bitter broc rabe compliments it perfectly. It calls to mind Philly-style roast pork sandwiches. I know we're having a fried chicken moment right now (I'm not hating, I swear), but sometimes it's nice to eat homey and delicious chicken sandwich without instantly feeling the urge to sprawl out like a beached whale afterwards. As for ambiance/decor, it is sparkling clean and cute inside. My wife initially picked it off of vibes alone before even consulting a menu. read more

Saw the good reviews and am adding another. Fabulous chicken that features a lot of rosemary. Perfectly cooked. One of the best chicken meals ever!

Kinda perfect rotisserie chicken with jus. Tasty seasoning and ridiculously juicy. Pair with fries and a nice salad. Yum.

Great ambience with 70's music. Fast and friendly waitstaff. Food is outstanding and fresh. Beans and rice bowl with chicken was epic. Rotisserie spiced cauliflower side dish was full of flavor. Garlic bread thin and crispy. Wow!!!! read more

Poulet SANS Tête, merci bien! The flavors here are heavenly! The rotisserie chicken is juicy and tender, redolent of rosemary, and a tantalizing heat of what? Cayenne? The crunchy Brussels sprouts are perfect - the little strands of orange peel make them rich and sparkling at the same time. The drippings potatoes are a monument to comfort food, what else can I say? Do not go without a sauce. My favorite is the garlic sauce - umami Paradise.! Joseph was sweet and attentive. The playlist can't be beat - eclectic, jaunty, and sophisticated. read more

Poulet Sans Tete - Chicken, Brussels sprouts, potatoes, garlic sauce. Food of the gods. - Chicken Shop Near Me - New York, New York

Been here many times. Food is great but surprisingly the host/waiter on this visit was extremely unwelcoming.

Best roasted chicken and sides on the UWS! The family combo with sauces is our favorite.

This place is a block away from my home. I'm not going to tell you how deliciously homey the chicken and all the sides are, or how beautifully friendly the entire staff is, or how charming it is to sit at the counter and have dinner in an intimate space. The reason I'm not going to tell you any of that is I want to keep it just the way it is. It's a special spot. BUT, I also want all the best for my friends so filter out the irony from what I've written. Just go or order in. It's so good. read more

Outstanding Rotisserie Chicken. Juicy and delicious. The portions are generous. The many sides are also great. I had the spiced cauliflower which was amazing and the Israel quinoa salad was refreshing. My wife had the chicken and vegetable soup that was wonderful. A welcome addition to the UWS for both counter service and take-out. The service is very friendly and helpful. read more

great spot. chicken is incredible and it's impossible to choose sides, which are all great.

I recommend this place for everything but the chicken and broccoli and swiss + jus sandwich on baguette. It's a sloppy mess.

I never leave reviews but was blown away by the customer service that I felt I had to share. Not only is the food awesome, but they are very accommodating to allergies/allergy friendly. I called to ask whether the items I wanted to order in had any allergens I couldn't have, after confirming they didn't and hanging up, the manager called me back to confirm they take this seriously and will ensure the kitchen knows of the allergies. I've never had a restaurant do that before and was impressed. I also felt safe ordering in given the attention to detail. Thank you!!! read more

Wanted to love this place and ordered a whole chicken, fries and cauliflower. But, the abundance of salt was a deal breaker. Unfortunately!!! The good: Great potential. Nice sized portions. Creative. Good presentation. The bad: Super salty. Overly salted. Way too much salt. The chicken was crazy salty. And so were the french fries. Really?! And the cauliflower was way undercooked, nearly raw. The ugly: Frankly it all looked good. Just too much salt!!! I could still love this place. But not anytime soon. ‍ read more

Fast service, great food, kid friendly. The Mac and cheese is very good! The salads and sides are also great

I had high hopes and really wanted to love this place - offering fresh, real food available for lunch and dinner - but I too was overwhelmed with SALT like a previous reviewer. The chicken is nice and tender, but it has to be from all the salt. Thats all I could taste. We got a few sides (brussel sprouts were decent, potatoes were good and the zucchini corn, my favorite - good texture, flavor and cut the salt effect that lingered on my tongue). I was hoping this would be my go to for serving a great lunch for my boss and his family on his private flights, however, all I can say is I'm glad I went and tried it all out first. I don't want to give up on this place, such great potential! Maybe I'll try again in a couple of months and see if there is a new chicken seasoning recipe. read more

Good service. Great tasting food made with quality ingredients and careful attention. I know the star is the chicken, and it is definitely good...but I could come here just for the sides. This casual French bistro vibe that has me planning to come back for more. It's fairly priced and properly portioned. And don't underestimate the sauces..so good! read more

Today I had a craving for chicken and this place hit the spot. The chicken actually tastes like chicken. The roasted potatoes cooked with the chicken juices were tender and savory.

New Yorkers! Stop what you're doing and head to the newly opened Poulet Sans Tête on the UWS's Amsterdam Avenue (there's also one in the Village). The farm-raised rotisserie chickens are excellent, and the sides superb. I started with a whole chicken (nicely priced at $27) and a rotisserie chicken dinner ($26) for my neighbor. It came with two sides, so my friend chose cauliflower and potatoes with drippings. Both were good but the potatoes were sensational. I went back today for the rotisserie chicken lunch ($21), which has somewhat less meat than dinner. I chose two sides--the frites, which were fabulous, and the kale, which was a bit too salty for me. Friends like the ice cream, which I'll try next trip. Seating inside & out, plus delivery options. Love this place! read more

Let me start off by saying that Poulet has fantastic food -- I used to order out from here somewhat regularly and have always been impressed with just how good the chicken & sides are. The reason I'm writing this review is to highlight how expensive Poulet has become. $30 for a quarter rotisserie chicken meal? When Whole Foods sells whole rotisserie chickens for $11? Let's call a spade a spade... it's unreasonably pricy. I can't justify ordering in from a neighborhood spot charging these prices. It's super upsetting given how good Poulet is. I pray for the day in which I can order from here regularly again. Please bring the prices back down to earth. read more
