Quik-It Chicken, located on the Northside of PGH, is truly a hidden culinary treasure! This spot exemplifies the saying “not to judge a book by its cover!” While the front area of the store appears a bit worn down and in need of a deep clean, it is absolutely worth the visit! The kitchen, however, was clean and well-organized. I was pleasantly surprised by the prices, which were lower than I had anticipated! The customer service felt like a warm family gathering for Sunday dinner! The owner expressed his gratitude for the patronage and our appreciation of his craft! The young man who took our order was both polite and welcoming! Now, let’s talk about the food—it was simply delicious! The wings were seasoned just right and fried to a perfect crisp! The ribs were juicy and packed with flavor! There was a wide variety of side dishes available, with the tomato and zucchini and the yams/apples being my personal favorites. To top it all off, the sweet potato or apple pie desserts were a delightful way to conclude our meal!

Where do I start with this…
The service was wonderful.
The gentleman was very polite very hospitable.
He insisted I have the cornbread
LOL
I don’t like cornbread.
He changed my mind.
His cornbread was delicious almost a touch of sweetness to it very very good.
The macaroni and cheese that came on the side was good.
The chicken was very very soft really good just a bit salty for my taste though
Nonetheless it was still really good
The only downfall to this experience that I had today was the inside of the dining area could be A little bit cleaner.
Other than that the food was wonderful, the gentleman was wonderful, the service was wonderful….

Excellent experience coming here for a quick takeout lunch! The guy who helped me was very accomodating and made a great recommendation for lunch. Food was ready quickly, quite fulfilling, and priced well.

This place should have a higher rating. Mr. Thomas serves some of the best chicken, ribs, sides, and cornbread around. Forget the menu, forget delivery, just go in and enjoy what feels like home cooking served by someone who truly cares.
Been here multiple times over the last year or so, never been disappointed. Always friendly, food is always fresh, prices are more than fair.

I had heard the chicken was good, so I stopped in and checked it out. Got a wing plate with greens and yams. The chicken was great and the sides out of this world. The greens had a nice spice I’ve been missing since leaving Louisiana earlier this year. The yams were sweet with apples. The owner was friendly.
Yes, this restaurant is in a gas station. The actual cooking equipment and work areas looked clean. I can’t wait to go back!

“Tastes so good, make you wanna slap yo mama”. The greens and corn bread alone so good it should be illegal.

Missing items from my order that make it really inedible . I ordered 2 chicken and waffles dinners, Came without chicken at all and no syrup. If you don’t want to waste your hard earned money order somewhere else.. YOU WILL BE SALTY IF YOU ORDER HERE!

This is a no-thrills neighborhood fried chicken place who’s biggest seller is the fried whole wings. It’s a place for those who know, know. It’s attached to a gas station, but is it’s own speparate business. I’m pretty sure it’s cash only. Just go in, order some wings and a few sides. You will not be disappointed.
