Was up in Syracuse today looking at a potential new customer. We tried this chicken eatery. There are so many chicken eateries I was hoping this place would be possible well, different. The online menu looked very good. In the end, the food was good. The chicken was moist. The flavor was ok, nothing really stood out over similar places. I live an hour away so it will be a bit far to travel. The locals should enjoy it.

A friend of mine raved about this place so we had to give it a try. We ordered pick up. We got the family half chicken tenders and half chicken bites with mashed taters with gravy and fries. The chicken was good, lightly breaded and seasoned to perfection. The chicken bites are big- no small pieces. Our son loved dipping his chicken in the gravy and said it’s the best gravy he’s had. He loves country style gravy. We are a family of four and everyone ate and we still had leftovers. For our family, we feel the portions are great. Their cornbread with the raspberry butter hits different.

This place is delicious! I know that Maddox is part of the fam which I have always loved Maddox, and they have lived up to expectations! KFC has nothing compared to my favorite spicy potato bowls from here.

Ordered from Door Dash, so, can’t comment on atmosphere..but everything was exceptional. We will order again.
I’m picky about chicken tenders..the breading was on point. Perfectly seasoned, not too thick or too thin.. and the tenders were huge. Their honey mustard was great as well as the ranch. Can’t wait to try their sides.

We ordered the chicken sandwich, a few tenders, Mac and cheese, coleslaw and fries. The chicken sandwich was delicious. The seasoning on the chicken is a great blend of spices and really makes this sandwich perfect. They did add Mayo (which I don’t mind) but for people who do, ask for no Mayo. I would say this was better than the Chick-fil-a chicken sandwich so if looking to get away from CFA, I’d highly recommend The Bird. The tenders were good too. They were more like flatter chicken breasts than what i am used to for tenders but that’s was better anyways. I felt like I was getting more for my money. Speaking of which, this place has very competitive pricing too! Mac and cheese wasn’t anything special but if you prefer that over coleslaw or French fries, def try it out! The coleslaw was kind f frozen when I got it so I did let it thaw a bit first before diving too much into it. Ultimately, it ended up being pretty good. Nothing outstanding but this place is made for the chicken not the sides! I also ordered the market salad during a separate visit. It was quite large for the price and had super fresh ingredients. I wish it had more sugar snap peas than it did but I was still satisfied. They also put the mini bites in a separate container so they didn’t mix with the salad before ready to eat. I love that! Overall, I’m very happy to live so close to this place and will be checking them out pretty regularly.

Wish they would bring back the free sauce. With two family style orders, no way was that enough sauce. There’s a reason Chick Filet gives it out for free.

This place is delicious all the way. I love their buffalo sauce and chicken sandwiches. My kids ate all their nuggets and they are picky eaters. Very fresh taste

We decided to try The Bird for the first time on Saturday. Called in our order and it was ready in 15 minutes. We ordered the family feast which comes with choice of 10 tenders or 30 bites, 2 large side and a half dozen cornpones w/ raspberry butter for $25. We went with half tenders/half bites, and chose mashed potatoes and gravy, and Mac n cheese as our two sides.
The chicken was delicious and had great flavor. The mashed potatoes and country gravy were really good, and the potatoes didn’t taste like they were instant so that made me happy. Husband really enjoyed the Mac n cheese. The cornpones were alright and I really liked the raspberry butter. The three sauces we chose were the wing sauce, honey mustard, and fry sauce. Wing sauce had a little sweetness but good kick. Loved the honey mustard. I didn’t try the fry sauce but everyone else liked it. Overall we were really impressed and happy. Definitely recommend and will be returning.

This is TERRIFIC chicken! The chicken sandwich is unbeatable. The nuggets and strips are tender and well seasoned. The pre-seared turkey steaks are “restaurant quality”. The little pies are terrific. Frankly, I’ve never had a bad experience. Yum!

We are 20 minutes from The Bird in Syracuse, but love their food so we get fairly often. I especially like their chicken sandwiches and their salads. The market salad was what I ordered this evening with Bleu Cheese dressing. I did not disappoint. We will be back.
