My friend has been visiting this place and I tried it for the first time. They had good and prompt service, very accommodating.We were served to try their new chicken tacos (mild spicy) and the sauce complimented well with the overall taste and texture of the chicken. I also tried their fries madness which was so filling, they gave lots of sauce and the serving was a lot too. Definitely would go back again!

I love a good fried chicken sandwich so I stopped by forefeathers. I ordered the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, however this was not one. It has a chipotle sauce that happens to be very tasty with Cole slaw and pickles. It was definitely delicious, but it just wasn’t a Nashville hot. Either way, I enjoyed the sandwich & my seasoned fries. Would definitely come back to try more next time I’m in the area and need a fast casual meal.

I recently visited this new halal fried chicken spot, and I have to say, the chicken was fantastic! Crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with just the right amount of seasoning. It's clear they take pride in their food, and I really hope they maintain this high quality as they grow. The flavors were spot on, and it's definitely a place I’ll be coming back to. If you're in the area, definitely give it a try!

This was the most horrible food I've ever ordered. The order was not ready when I arrived despite 20 minutes order time. I waited while one guy in the place started making the food. Should have realized based on the condition and lack of cleaning that this was not gonna be good, but I waited. I ordered 2 double patty burgers that cost $12 each. I received 2 single patty burgers that had the literal thinnest slice of beef that I've ever seen. How this place could charge money for that is beyond me. It was about the thickness of a slice of lunch meat. So the order was wrong and WAY OVERPRICED! The fries tasted like they were cooked in grease that was months old...like a fish taste. The coleslaw was dripping with liquid and smelled foul. The entire order went straight to the trash. No thanks to food poisoning...so $40 of food straight to the trash. I contacted the restaurant and seamless. The restaurant offered to remake the food but seriously what would be the point? It's not gonna change the value, taste or smell. Seamless offered a $7 credit but that is also pointless considering the meal cost $40 and was completely inedible. Lesson learned. Do NOT order from this place. The reviews are not accurate. This place is disgusting and they are cheap thieves for not refunding the order. Never using seamless again either! Uber Eats would have taken care of that without question.

Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or sitting down with friends, Forefeathers Chicken Madness hits the spot every single time. If you love chicken, you have to try this place. It’s easily one of the best chicken joints around.
