Reviews for Chicken Shack Astoria in Queens, NY
All sides ordered were terrible. Their flavor, texture, and consistency reminded of left overs, but old left overs. It's as if I... was given a week old container of food that someone put into a microwave and nuked then handed to me and said it was made today.Also, shouldn't mac and cheese have cheese? Edit: Scrolling through the other real reviews, it's hilarious that many of themagree on the mac and cheese. Read more
I went during lunch time since I was in the area the other and I got a italian style chicken sandwhich, the chicken was a bit... dry and the peices in the sandwhich were a bit thin and smaller than I would have liked, plus the tsaziki sauce they had was waytoo thick due to veggies in it that were long strands, the sandwhich all in all was just ok, and for 17$ roughly for just asandwhich and drink I was expecting more.

Let me say this: I've eaten at a lot of chicken places around the world and for some reason, this grilled chicken at Astoria's... Chicken Shack is THE BEST CHICKEN I've eaten. Hands down. No debate. I eat here regularly. I'm talking multiple times a week. Ieat at the restaurant and I order delivery sometimes. It's the best. The chicken is moist and tender. You can see the chef makeit right in front of you on the flame grill so you know IT IS VERY FRESH! It has a delicious flavor to it and the saucescomplement the chicken very well. I always go for the half-chicken on the value menu ($13) because you can't get a meal betterthan it! It is SO HEALTHY! You are given a side salad which is fresh and you are also given another side of your choice. Inaddition to all of that (the chicken, the sauces, the salad, and the side), you are also given pita bread with it! This place issimply the best! I absolutely love the sweet potato fries too! THE SWEET POTATO FRIES ARE SO GOOD!!! You need to try them. Theyare delicious, crispy, and bursting with flavor. The combination of the half-chicken with the sweet potato fries is literallyunbeatable. The price is also amazing. VERY AFFORDABLE. I absolutely love coming here. I also want to say that the manager ofthe shop is a great guy and everyone that works with him is also very helpful and respectful. I feel at home when I'm eating atthis place! I will definitely be coming back! Thank you Chicken Shack! Read more
A year ago this place was great. Recently I have gotten dry chicken, chewy ribs, and sides that have no taste. I don't know how... you mess up mashed potatoes or Mac and Cheese but, each time they had no flavor. The chicken and ribs used to be juicy butagain the past few times dry and chewy. Read more
I got a grilled chicken cutlet meal with fries and I was not impressed. Perhaps I'd have a better luck with Charcoal Broiled... Chicken. This is a grab and go place. They do have a seating area but I'd not eat inside. I went in during summer time and itwas hot in there. Read more
I loved it and it was a decent price for the neighborhood. I got the burrito but it was more like a taco ???? than an actual... burrito. In the end it was a better choice. The red birch beer soda was a great way to wash it down afterwards. Read more
Speedy service. Friendly counter person. I ordered a variety of meals on the menu. I was not pleased. My chicken tenders were... a nice size, but where over cooked and hard. My side salad was fresh and the Italian dressing was delicious. They gave me anice amount of sweet plantains. The sweet potato fries were undercooked. I also ordered arroz con pollo which was a littlesalty. The side of veggies were decent. Read more
