Holy fried chicken! This place knows what they're doing and its worth the trek to Dixon to sample their delights. Their chicken is super crispy and delightful and the breading is not heavy or soggy at all, even when reheated the next day. Try their house made bbq sauce, super unusual, but goes really well in the chicken (but inly the chicken). Plus they really shine with the other menu items. Try the catfish bites (or do they call them tenders?) but the order is enough for two! Loved them with and without hot sauce. Also really liked the fried cauliflower we tried.

The onion rings were lightly battered and delicately crisped yet sturdy. The portion size was generous. Two hearty eaters would be satisfied. BBY Chicken is definitely a n establishment to go out of...
Read moreThis has to be the worst experience ever. The place reeks. Then when we ordered, the obese owner claimed I was being cheap for not ordering more. Then after waiting 25 minutes, they charged me over $12 more than they should have. When I questioned it, they said we were charged $2 for each cup of tap water they gave us even after I told them we had bottled water with us. I said we'll give back the tap water, so they agreed to reduce the price by $3. After I told them that's still not right, a waitress claimed I was acting like a difficult Walmart customer she deals with. That was it, I walked out. ...
