Sal's Birdland Cicero — Local services in Town of Cicero

Just opened, wait times are long, you'll want to call your order in to avoid standing around. Go easy on the folks behind the counter, they are super busy and doing the best they can to keep up.

Tenders - I like them better than Tully's. The breading is thinner and really crispy, great flavor. The tender is really juicy and moist, I think Tully's are a bit on the dry side.

Wings - Personally I'm not a huge fan of breaded wings but these are good. Same breading as the tenders so they are nice and crispy. Wings are jumbo size so they have plenty of meat on them and they they stay super juicy.

Fried Pickles (wedges) - Really good, nice and crispy, they use a quality pickle so they stay nice and firm after frying. Same breading as the wings and tenders.

Potato wedges - Big wedges, lots of flavor, unfortunately they get a little soft in the box on the way home. 5 minutes at 350° on a baking sheet and your good to go.

Mac n Cheese - Unfortunately, disappointed. Very creamy but lacked flavor. My first guess is they are not salting the pasta water. Second guess is they are not using real cheese as it has a super bright orange...

I believe I was the first customer of the day because it was barely after 11 am. All I ordered was large wedgies because I have been wanting some for the past week. It came to $8 and some change. I handed him a $10 in his hand. I kept my hand out for my change. He placed the change on the counter right. next. to. my. extended hand. Don’t come at me and say “maybe he was having a bad day”. Or “maybe that’s actually a sign of respect”. I was taught “put it in their hand, receive it back in your hand”. Respect goes both ways. I already haven’t been there since opening week because the wings were “meh” at best. But who can mess...

Giving 5 stars 🌟 because I ordered 5 wings and wedges combo with mild sassy sauce that was delicious and came with my combo and I added a blue cheese that was yummy..... I also ordered a small Mac n cheese that was dry and no flavor ...I added salt and pepper and forget about it .... I also ordered a small coleslaw that is very creamy.....they use mayo and vinegar.....not quite sure i like it .... I waited 50 minutes for my order ....place was packed.....next time I'll try the tenders and wedges combo and give the beans and macaroni salad a try...... thank you very much..... I'll...
