Yelpers - what the Hell? Tap the brakes. This is not a 4-5 star place! It's becoming difficult to trust reviews anymore when you guys try to skew the ratings. Let me set it straight. Chicken is overcooked! Both the wings and tenders - I think in old oil. Onion rings are the industrial kind you can get anywhere (little flavor), no soda drinks (only bottles). Any of your run of the mill chicken fast foods can beat the hell all of this - KFC, Popeye's, etc. I actually had to stop on the way home to pick-up some chicken to take home! People are friendly - service good. Throw in some good food and we might have a parade. As it is - I don't believe this place will make it. This used to be a Burgerim - which I also reviewed - https://www.yelp.com/biz/burgerim-plano-2?uid=HDhwkg5y-lPIsLVjzISqhQ&utm_campaign=www_business_share_popup&utm_medium=copy_link&utm_source=(direct) - Same owners, different theme? In any event, I see it going the way of the previous place. Unfortunate, I want small business people to succeed, and these friendly folks probably deserve it. Sorry, you gotta have the food first! This place ain't got it! read more

Chicken is well-flavored and cooked right, better than most of the fried chicken chains! People were very nice and provided good service. Cleanliness is obviously a huge priority for the owners and it shows. Restaurant smells nice ... an odd comment I know, but fried chicken places usually smell horrible :) Food was slow in coming out of the kitchen, which could be improved. But it's hard to argue with steaming hot food delivered to your table! Clearly this is a locally owned restaurant and I'm really rooting for them. If they can improve the speed, add more tables to the restaurant, and stay consistent, they'll be a local favorite in no time! read more

Favorite place for fried Catfish up north! Try the catfish nuggets cooked in the shrimp batter! Awesomeness!

The fried chicken is So Good ! We loved everything about our experience at What's Cluckin . I had the fried chicken livers and 3 wing plate with hush puppies . My wife and kids had the tenders with okra and fries . Everything was cooked to perfection and came out hot and fresh in less than 20 minutes . We can't wait to go back ! read more

the owner was so incredibly rude. the floor was sticky and gross. they ended up leaving off two meals from our order and we had to go back to get what we paid for. no apologies. the fried okra was ok, but the rest was not very good. would never go back! read more

Great fried chicken for the buck. Be prepared to wait as chicken prepared fresh. Outside seating available

This is my next favorite fried chicken place after Popeye's Chicken. The batter is crispy good. The chicken is moist and tender, not overcooked. read more

The chicken was so good, I got the Nashville hot and it was actually kind of spicy and I like spice but overall it was great. My friend and I are both 6'3 and eat a lot of food and the portion was so large that we both ended up taking like half of our food home. I would definitely recommend this spot read more

What’s Cluckin - 3 piece - Chicken Shop Near Me - Fairview, Texas

Saw the good reviews and decided to try this place out. Wait was about 20 mins for the food though about half way through they cook came out to say they were out of fried okra and I had to order something else :/ not a good sign. Food comes out piping hot but... it was ok. I got a 3 piece tender and a 2 piece dark meat combo. The tenders were spiced and salted but I would say they require a sauce like ranch to help keep the saltiness down when you get to the end. Fried chicken was better but nothing I haven't had before at good chain. TLDR; not bad but not outstanding. read more

Good people, crispy chicken and simply delicious. This is a jewel hidden in Plano. Crispy and not greasy with nice people owning and running this fried chicken joint. read more

Great chicken and great service! Food made to order so call ahead if you're in a rush, but it'll be worth it! read more

Really good fried chicken cooked fresh. Crispy and well seasoned. Cozy spot. Next time I'm in town I'm definitely coming back. One suggestion, get some sweet tea or lemonade or both lol read more

New location new menu new product same great taste and customer service! Would be 5 + stars if fries n sides were cheaper were included or at least a dollar cheaper ( 3.39 for fries 7.99 for three wings and piece of catfish ) read more

Update. - Went back yesterday guy took my order was nice. Went back in to pick up order another guy who was sweeping the floor came behind the counter to get my food. My suggestion would be anytime u r going from cleaning to handling food or dealing with customers please wash your hands he was really nice but he needs to make sure everything is being handled sanitary . Otherwise food is still 5 star. read more

I'm giving this place 5 stars simply because it's a black owned business (YUP) Next because the chicken was fresh, hot, crispy and had great flavor. The place had a cool vibe and was clean. I had their 1 piece of catfish with 2 wings. Catfish was good, a little on the salty side which could have been just a piece that the chef was heavy handed on. Only thing I didn't like were the prices. Charging an extra almost $2.50 for plain shoestring fries is a bit much. Fries are cheap and should come with the meals. But, they do have daily specials so I guess I can't complain too much. I'll be back to support for sure. read more

I love fried gizzards! Very difficult to find in North Dallas. When I was in Chicago, I'd go to Harold's or Brown's Chicken for my fix. Once I saw this place, I had to give it a try. Delicious gizzards, not too hard and seasoned well. Like the aforementioned places, food is made fresh, so be prepared to wait 10-15 minutes. It's worth it for piping hot food. I'll definitely check them out again and try some other items next time. read more

Like, I just drove 1 hour and 15 minutes to experience my heritage the Chi-Town way! While trying to understand the menu the cashier got a bad disposition! I mean frowns on her face and all. She even stated." Where she was from and who she was affiliated with. " I had just spent $20, was about to buy my Sister and Niece and order as well! This lady was mean and very condescending! Clearly, she's rich and don't need my money! Because I kindly walked next door to Qdoba and spent $60.00. I will never come back here and if I are from Chicago this isn't the vibe I'm use to! read more

There's nothing impressive about the food here. I ordered the "whole wing" 5 piece with "Chicago mild" sauce on the side and hush puppies as a side. I'm happy I ordered the sauce on the side b/c Chicago mild sauce is basically ketchup! Seasoned with some other spice(s). It was more ketchup than anything else. Very unappetizing. The fried chicken itself is solid, nothing good or bad to say. I didn't care for the hush puppies. Lacking flavor. The chicken also came with two slices of white bread, it's just bread. Pretty typical. A good thing is, there's plenty of food for the price. Overall. This was a waste of a cheat meal. read more

Came for a late lunch and ordered the 5 wings and fries for $5.99. This was probably the cheapest and yet fulfilling meal I've had yet. The wings were cooked fresh and were crispy. They let me try their dry rub and had it on the side which had a nice flavor to it and I might get that cooked with the chicken next time. They also have their own Chicago mild sauce if I'm remembering the name correctly, but wasn't my favorite. The seating area and bathrooms were clean and staff were great and would be back 100%! read more

My first and certainly not my last visit. When I first got there, I couldn't decide what I wanted. Choices of chicken and catfish or a combo of both. I really showed up wanting wings. I chose a dozen lemon pepper wings which included fries. I got my order to go and when I got home I was more than happy. The size of the wings were much bigger than you'll see and wingstop or the other chains and in addition, they were still nice and hot The fries were ok, not nice and crispy by the time I got home. The seasoning on the wings were perfect. Again, I can normally devour a dozen wings but these were nice and large and filling. I highly recommend. My next trip will be the fried chicken or catfish. read more

Absolute slowest, and unapologetic service I have ever gotten. I called in an order and was given at wait time of 30 minutes... Ok, no big deal. I arrived about 20 minutes later expecting to wait about 10 minutes or so. I've been here an hour now, and after asking where my order was, was told..."it'll be another 10 minutes". I finally got my order an HOUR AND TWENTY MINUTES after placing it. This is poor customer service at its peak. I don't care what the food is like, if the service is this bad, I won't ever come back. read more

The staff is so nice treat you like family food is fresh one of the best spots to get a bite yo eat I highly recomended I live in Southwest Dallas( Oak Cliff) and drove there just for Chicago style chicken will go back again. Angie and Chris are the Best come by support them. Right next to Willow Creek Mall read more

Tried to splash out this week and it is beyond awesome. The chicken was delicious hot, 24, and perfectly spaced and prepared. Aside from that, the service was extraordinarily friendly. Definitely a new favorite place for chicken. read more

Long wait! Hot was hot, chicken was ok. Fries were horrible because they were limp and very thin. Livers were just ok and the gizzards were not cooked, they were still hard and flavorless. I drove from Richardson to try "What's Clucking" Never again. read more

Got the mixed dark and white chicken. Sorry to say, the chicken was extremely salty both the crust and the chicken itself, and I thought it was pretty greasy too. The onion rings were greasy as well. Won't be returning. read more

Delicious fried chicken; everything we ordered (2 visits) was good and the staff was very friendly! Take your time as they cook everything fresh to order. The restaurant is clean with a large TV read more

Moved to Plano a year ago and had not found "our" wing place. Tonight we tried What's Cluckin and found our go-to! Wings we delicious and fresh. Great special on Wednesday night - $14.99 for twelve pieces and fries. Oh my... so good. The owners are really nice and attentive for an "order at the counter" joint. We will be back. read more

Seems like a very popular place. I will point out that it's apparently Chicago style, which means no gravy on anything. Texas style is gravy on everything. read more

I actually really enjoyed the wings and the onion rings today. I needed a side to go with my dirty rice and decided to try this new location. It was well seasoned and I could tell the grease was clean. The wings had a nice crunchiness that wasn't over done. I want to go back and try some other items. They were friendly and the location was clean. read more

Have them an extra because it's a black owned business... but the fish is over priced and doesn't have anything extra to offer... no home made tartar sauce or nothing ... maybe it's all about the chicken... not the fish.. then for a large catfish nugget they give you 2 packs !!! Wtf read more

Chicken is hot and fresh. Fries were hot and the seasoning was was delicious. Mild sauce set it all off! We be back for more. read more

What’s Cluckin - Trying it out - Chicken Shop Near Me - Fairview, Texas

Comfortable atmosphere, great artwork, friendly people. We had take out, chicken, fries and gizzards. The food was so hot, (temperature wise) it stayed that way all the way to home. Chicken was still crunchy too, and it was so juicey! Reminded me of home! Everything was really good. My wife can't wait to go back and try out the Catfish! Definitely a great addition to this local! read more

What’s Cluckin - Thought we would try "What's Cluckin". First impression was a good one! Nice Artwork, friendly people, comfortable space! - Chicken Shop Near Me - Fairview, Texas

This place has earned my business. We got take out. All dark chicken, red beans and rice, and greens. I don't eat beans and rice but my husband said it was delicious. I absolutely HATE greens but I tried them, just because. Guess who loves greens as of today? The chicken was crispy, juicy, and piping hot, even after the drive home. Everything was perfect. We will definitely be back. read more

I love good fried wings with our without sauce. I prefer no breading or a light breading and the wings here were good as far as texture, but they were very salty. The service was really slow as well. This was my first time and I'll give them another go and update the next time I order from them. For now 3 stars and hoping I can bring it to 5 on my next go round. read more

Tried this place out for the first time today, not bad. Chicken is really good. I can do without the fries. I love the seasoning they put on the chicken (ask for cluck seasoning) Will definitely go back again .. Hold the fries. read more

What's Cluckin is authentic south side Chicago Polish and fried chicken. My wife and I just enjoyed a Maxwell Street Polish and their fried chicken. It's all good! read more

I've been here 3 times now and each time was yummy. Very crispy chicken and nice fries. The staff has always been friendly. They'll tell me about a 10-15 minute wait with the order, but it's usually done pretty quickly. I don't think ever had to wait the whole 15minutes. read more

Nothing special about this place I tried this place 3 times and still wasn't impressed. The fish taste like chicken and the chicken was inconsistent with the flavor on each visit, and the fries were the worst. read more

Love the wings and livers. I couldn't stop eating them. Big pieces of chicken livers and great crispy wings. Definitely recommend. Prices are reasonable.. read more

Been eyeing this place for a while. I actually had been to a place in the same area and kept seeing a number of people going in and out and that caught my eye. Tried it today and was very impressed with the fried chicken. Rate it a 10 out of 10. You will wait a while for your order but it's well worth it...fried to order!!!! read more
