★★★★★ 5.0 Yousef Alnajar · Oct 2025

First time trying this place and wow! The chicken is amazing! I only eat halal, and this definitely hit the spot. The breading is perfect and actually stays on the chicken, plus it’s super crispy and full of flavor. The crinkle-cut fries, house ranch, and Kick’n sauce are all top-tier. If you’re a chicken lover, this is hands down the best spot to check out!

Superb food, service, and atmosphere! Truly my favorite place for a chicken sandwich — plus their Mac & cheese is just as delightful! Some reviewers might try to compare this place to Dave’s Hot Chicken though like the saying goes, you can't compete where you don't compare. Five Star Chicken serves hand slaughtered chicken! Talk about respect & care for health safety.

I’m here more than I should be. The food doesn’t miss, top tier for sure. Thanks Five Star Would recommend the five star combo if you’re looking for a reliable chicken sandwich , kick n chicken combo (personal fav) if you want something more flavorful and savory since it has coleslaw, or the hot honey chicken combo if you want some spice. The buffalo chicken sandwich is also pretty good. Genuinely can’t complain, the milkshakes are really great too, they’re on the thicker side, so if that’s what you prefer this is the spot to be.

Stopped by 5 Star Chicken and had a really good experience. The food came out hot and tasted great, and the place was clean. The best part was the service though. Karla, the cashier, was really nice and easy to talk to. She took her time, made sure my order was right, and had a good attitude the whole time. You can tell she actually cares about customers. Overall, it was a smooth, pleasant visit. I’d definitely come back again.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Matt Gomez · Sep 2025

Short and too point, I describe this place best as ehh! Or as my wife says, 3 steps down from Dave's hot chicken, thus not worth the return. Now for the details; walking in as a new customer with a clearly puzzled and confused expression on my face I wasnt greeted or spoken to or asked if I needed help. Instead after a moment of just standing there with no acknowledgement from the guy behind counter, made my luck with the self order kiosk. From order to receiving the food was a solid 15min wait, during a very slow time even. Both of these, as well as the fly buzzing around the dinning area, could easily been overlooked with some awesome food.. The breading for the chicken is to clearly too much flour you can taste it, the seasoning is bland and theres just no wow factor at all. The breadi
