I stopped by Dell Rhea's Chicken Basket after seeing it from the road. It's right off Route 66, but…read morekinda hard to miss, this place feels like one of those spots you stumble on by luck. The place has that classic diner look, a little loud, smells amazing, and everyone seems happy to be there. Including the staff, they were super friendly. I got the fried chicken basket. Half a chicken, four pieces. Looked perfect when it came out.. golden, crispy, hot enough to burn your fingers a little (in a good way). First bite, the crunch hit, then that juicy inside...oh man, that's real fried chicken. Seasoned just right, not salty, not bland, that simple, old-fashioned flavor you can't fake. It's just place that you will find really good chicken. And I'm definitely be coming back for more.

We happened to be in the area and stopped in at 10:53 since the posted opening time is 11:00. The…read moreemployee who walked in right before us said it would be at least another half hour before we could eat. If that's the case, the opening time should probably be listed as 11:30.

This is a new restaurant in Tinley Park near Lou Malnati's. The place is tucked away at the end of…read morethe strip and a little difficult to find. When we entered we were well greeted by two of the staff. Very friendly and professional people. And although the outside of the business is somewhat plain the inside is really nice. Well lit with a nice layout and atmosphere. I nice mural on the wall as well. My wife ordered the 2 pc white chicken and waffle. For some reason they consider a wing as white meat? Anyhow, you get a wing and a huge breast with a waffle. The chicken is fried and the batter has a nice taste to it. The breast was way over cooked and dry however. But overall it was good at a price of $8.99. I had the Spicy Chicken Sandwich. Its served on a regular hamburger bun and the chicken was extremely small. Most of the sandwich was the bun. It was good well and tasted delicious. It comes with a small amount of fries all for $10.99. This item is way over priced and not at all worth the cost. I would value this at $7-$8. Both of our orders were extremely fresh. Cooked to order. It took 30 minutes from order time to get the food which is too long. Neither of us will order these items again but we will return to try other menu items. And the key here is to call in and order ahead.

The food definitely stands out in terms of quality. It is most comparable to places like Canes , with the chicken/fries/toast combo. However they excel in comparison with their dirty sodas and other food offerings. The fries, cheese curds and Texas toast are all delicious snack options. Everything comes out hot and cooked to order. The portions are a good size and it all tastes fresh. The dirty sodas were a fun thing to try out. During my visits, I tried the "Toasty Marshmallow" (Mr Pibb) and the "Float On" (Barqs) . Both are sweet combinations and are fun treats. There's a lot here that makes them stand out from most fast-casual places and overall provide a quality dining experience.

In a category that I feel is saturated with lots of restaurants, and becoming increasingly…read moresaturated -- Minnie Bird stands out for me both in terms of choice and quality. Shops that offer chicken tenders, chicken sandwiches, fries, and similar options have become very commonplace in this area of the Chicago suburbs. Even without considering the quality of food, there's a few features that make this a hit for me. The dining room is fun, yet appropriate. The value here is great both in terms of quantity of food, and overall pricing. The ice cream that changes monthly provides a fun way to customize a periodic visit. While I'm not crazy about the texture and flavor of it, it's still an enjoyable dessert -- particularly on a warm day. The sides such as fried cheese curds and spicy fries are different. The dirty soda options also provide a ton of possibilities for social media posts and different flavor options on each visit. Service is not too slow for how busy the restaurant is, and parking isn't too difficult. The food is very good here, both in terms of flavor and texture -- and generously portioned as well. The tenders rival the best versions I've had from other dedicated chicken restaurants. Crispy with tender chicken that stands well on its own without sauces, but at the same time has a heightened experience with the quality sauces, which each have a distinct flavor profile. I also enjoyed the cole slaw and texas toast considerably, and especially the fries which were crisp and matched very well with the sauces. The same level of food quality is also present in their sandwiches and wraps, which mix the same quality components together for a delicious product.

Our family of six dined in for lunch and shared the following:…read more 1) Chicken bites 2) Leg and thigh, 10 pieces - We did not see this in the in-store menu but we saw it online and was able to order it at the restaurant. 3) Korean chicken nuggets, spicy - This was served with rice and pickles. The chicken nuggets were fine but both of the rice and pickles had a weird texture. The rice had too much moisture and seemed to be over-cooked. 4) Waffle fries and fried okra were pretty standard. 5) Cider slaw was incredibly bland in which we wondered if they forgot to add a dressing to it. This was a good amount of food for us to share but I think some improvements can be done for the side dishes.

I ordered 6 chicken tenders but only received 2, which was disappointing and set the tone for the rest of the meal. As for the sauces, the coop sauce wasn't really my preference--it reminded me a bit of coleslaw in sauce form. The honey mustard was fine, but nothing that stood out or elevated the meal. The chicken itself was very oily and lacked seasoning, to the point where the dominant flavor was just oil. It also didn't taste especially fresh and wasn't as tender as I was expecting from a place known for chicken. Overall, it wasn't a terrible experience, but it didn't meet my expectations given how popular this place is.
