I don't know...when I looked on Instagram and saw the "commercial", I was so excited. couldn't wait to go and try this chicken sandwich. I looked better than Popeyes. well I finally went and it was just meh. Even my teenage boys were not impressed. It was like a fried chicken sand with hot sauce. I tried to get the fries, but they said they were no longer making for the day. Whattt?? Soooo... you didn't run out..you're just no longer making it for the remainder of the day? Who does this? Nahhhh. I shall not return.

Carry-out hot chicken in Revival Hall is tasty, but so saucy that the breading is falling off. I guess I'm spoiled by the hot crispy Korean chicken we have in Northern Virginia like Wooboi and Chong Man. Busy, but service was quick.

Best hot chicken sando in Chicago! We tried both of them at Revival Food Hall before heading to The Nederlander for a fun musical, and they hit the spot. Both of the glazes, the honey butter and harissa, were amazing. The watermelon sugar drink was the perfect accompaniment. If you like crinkle cut fries, you'll love theirs. I know where to go next time I'm craving hot chicken!

Service was quick. Ordered the Popeye's Ain't Sh*t sandwich at medium heat which was phenomenal. The chicken was a generously portioned, was well-battered & crunchy, and that sauce... I'll be thinking about it over from SF. Was surprised to see the low reviews on this place, but all-in-all this was probably my favorite food stop in Chicago and I only ordered the sandwich to be fair. Will be back for my next visit!

This was the messiest sandwich I have ever eaten. If I ever go back (coworkers love it for some reason unknown to me) I will order it dry. No sauce please.

The best food I had while I was in Chicago. Very spicey, skin was nice and crispy. One of the best Nashville hot chicken spots I've tried. Their fries are also really good. The food court is also really nice.

It's really disappointing when you read good reviews and then you walk for 15 mins and get to the restaurant and that becomes the end of your excitement. The lines were all empty but I still stood there abd waited for the cashier to call me, to my surprise I looked into my eyes and ignored. Another gentleman came from the back kitchen looked at me a again ignored. I tried to initiate the conversation with the first gentleman, again ignored but I guess 3rd time is the charm. So finally he said how can I help you, I asked about the halal food and he saif the sandwiches are halal. So I ordered 2 of their sandwiches he asked me how spicy I want them to be and I said mild. Got my sandwiches from him immediately and then came to my table with my partner. Hahahaha no fries or anything else but a small sandwich in a big box starring at me. I picked it up and took a bite and wow the amount of vinegar in it was outrageous so I thought I should try the seconf one and hahaha again same the amount of vinegar was mind blowing. The chicken was crispy on the top but inside very soggy. The buns were small and thr presentation was below average and they charged me almost $27 for this. This was my first and last visit to this establishment. This is outrageous and disappointing at the same time.

Chicken is so flavorful and it's one of the best deals you can get in revival, where a lot of the places are quite pricey.Vegetarian options: Its all fried chicken.
I was stunned by how delicious this chicken was. I got medium spicy tenders, two large pieces, sauce was amazing..spicy but very complex. The dipping sauce was also incredible. Chicken was so tender and juicy. Shockingly good and worth $13 for two big tenders and a piece of toast.
I first discovered this place at their south side location a couple years ago so one may wonder why I'd write a review for another location with almost the exact same food. Well to be honest this is probably the meal/lunch in the entire loop area & what I discovered about 2 months ago is they even have delivery. Now of course the price skyrockets when getting it delivered but you'd be hard pressed to find something this tasty in the entire area. Again they're heavy handed with the sauce & the fries are the heaviest so much so that the healthiest appetite won't be able to finish them. The fries could also use more time in the fryer but nonetheless this is the best meal/lunch in the loop & best chicken sandwich in Chicago.

Good spot to grab lunch in downtown. I tried their chicken sandwich at their spiciest heat level. The chicken was well breaded and crunchy. It wasn't too spicy, it was more of a slight burn. The fries were fried well and crispy. Overall I enjoyed my meal and would try

I got the PAS sandwich. Food was cold and they forgot the sauce I ordered on the side (did Uber eats). The sandwich was still delicious though. Appropriately named.

Really good hot chicken sandwich. Breading was crunchy. The honey butter is a bit sweeter than I'd like, but that's alright. I'll be back. The crinkle fries were perfectly crispy as well.

I’m in love ? Just came here for the first time and had the tenders (mild). Perfect spice level for me, taste and crunch. Service was lighting fast. My only wish is that it came with a third tender instead of two for the price. Definitely coming back!
