"I never eat in. They offer seating at formica booths, similar to a lot of fast food establishments. I'm not fond of the color slaw, or any of the sides or desserts, but the chicken is EXCELLENT!"

"I remember going to this place when I was a teenager and the sons were babies.. the same recipe, excellent fried chicken. And a host of delicious sides I'm sure the parents are . I remember when it opened. That was many trips around the Sun. Very few businesses can boast that.."

"Best chicken, sides and some desserts ever! This great place, is a "historical" and forever food chain in the of all Patersonians. This family owned business has been around since I can remember (1980's plus)and has withstood the tests of time. God bless them!"

"Chicken supreme is the best chicken I’ve ever had. It’s reasonably priced, clean, and the food is divine. It sends me back to simpler times when I chew through the crispy skin into the juicy meat. My cousin would like this joint. He loves good chicken, and he loves having a good time. Chicken supreme has good chicken and good times."

"This place is decently clean (except a few tables) and I appreciate it, ESPECIALLY the bathroom. I bought a 2 piece individual meal with a side of coleslaw. The girl behind the register was patient and accommodating after I asked for a leg instead of a wing. The food was really great - the chicken was well seasoned while not being salty and I thought how rare it is to not crave a sauce for once. I thought the coleslaw had a decent flavor and consistency but a bit too sweet for my liking. If I am ever in town, I will definitely return."
