I had high expectations for this place since it had such a hype but was disappointed. The chicken was mediocre and their sides weren't amazing. The interior is super cute though with a retro vibe to it.

I heard amazing things about this halal fried chicken restaurant, and it did not disappoint. We got the bucket of fried chicken with mashed potatoes and gravy, the cheesiest Mac and cheese and honey butter rolls (that were amazing!). I recommend getting the fried chicken with the spicy dust (it's so dang good!). The sweet tea was different, it was very good with the slightest hint of honey. We sat at the bar area and our server was super friendly. Highly recommend!
Definitely a fried chicken place worth checking out! I tried the signature hot honey dipped fried chicken, along with three of their sides (mashed potatoes, mac and cheese, and cilantro lime slaw). The chicken was super juicy and moist and the breading was crispy, and I'm a sucker for hot honey so I loved the combination of sweet and salty. To be a little nitpicky, it was a bit fatty, as if the chicken hadn't been trimmed thoroughly. As for the sides, they were all pretty good, but didn't blow me away. The mashed potatoes we... read more
I actually love this place- honestly one of my favorites and QUICKLY. This is some of the best fried chicken I've ever had- the sides are fire and the vibes in the establishment itself are really dope. I normally consume them ordering via Uber Eats and the one issue that I've had with them is they have disjointed, intercales hours for delivery. I'm currently "waiting" 13 minutes for them to "open" per the weirdness they have going on. Despite a call to the store and their attempts to figure it out, no solution. The chicken... read more

Hello Kristof, we are glad that you enjoy our fried chicken. We get very busy during the weekend and we sometimes need to shut delivery down to accommodate dine-in and pickup guests.
The restaurant is super cute don't go with a large group because there isn't much seating but great place for a group under 5 ppl. The service was great the servers were so kind and fast with the orders. As soon as i ordered my food was out 10 minutes later. Now let's get into the CHICKEN ohhhhhmmmyyyyygoooddnnnesssss so good! The hot honey sauce was not too hot not too sweet it was just right. The chicken was perfectly fried and the butter biscuits were amazing. The strawberry pineapple lemonade I got with out alcohol but i... read more
Service was good however I do wish it was cleaner inside of the restaurant. Food was good as well.
Pretty solid food. I got the hot honey dipped wings. These were a disappointment in flavor. It was way too sweet and had no spice or heat too it. I had to ask for hot sauce on the side. When I tried the hot sauce by itself it was sweet as well. I love spicy food so I would preferred my chicken that way. The chicken itself was juicy and the skin crispy. If I ever come back I'd get the plain chicken. The sides were good, nothing to write home about but I liked them. Simple and the were pipin hot still.

Hello Lauren, we appreciate your feedback. We don't usually receive notes about our hot honey and habanero sauce not having enough spice/heat so it would be helpful to receive more information about your visit. Please contact us at info@honeymoonchicken.com so we can discuss.
I'm embarrassed to say the first (and last time) I tried HC was 2 years ago and haven't stopped thinking about the chicken and those INSANE rolls. I was back in this area so I decided to grab some chicken - HOWEVER it's gotten SO popular that on a rainy Saturday night the line was out of the door! I ordered my usual chicken with biscuits to go but was easily swayed to try the Brussel sprouts, mac n cheese and mashed potatoes. I have to be honest - mashed potatoes did nothing for me. No flavor at all despite being slathered ... read more
I came here with my family for Iftar. It's set up so that you seat yourself on a first-come first-serve basis. It wasn't clear how to order because none of the waitstaff acknowledged us when we sat. Apparently there was supposed to be a QR code on the table to order but ours didn't have one. We were eventually able to flag someone down to help us. It was about 7 pm on a Sunday night and they were already out of stock of a lot of things, mostly drinks. But we were all able to eventually order everything we wanted. There seeme... read more
