It's not too often in life where you stumble onto a special place where everything from the venue itself, the food and the service all turn out to be a flawless experience.

Mother Cluckers Chicken may not be in the most ideal spot in Gurnee but it boasts possibly the best tasting chicken & biscuits you'll ever have, YES they're THAT good!!

When you look at their high ratings and rave reviews, believe the hype. This isn't your typical chicken joint where you'll see a great big pile of chicken behind the counter on a heater, no everything's made to order.

Food comes out pipin' hot & fresh at fair prices still, dining room is kept ultra clean, service is down-to-earth friendly and there's a bar so you can have a drink while getting your game on with the slots.

Relatively short menu but not the typical menu anyone would expect plus besides the phenomenal chicken and heavenly biscuits, you can even get livers & gizzards.

I just pray that this place will stay open for decades to come, the location attached to a Shell station on US 41 a few seconds north of Stearns School rd is away from the busy Grand Ave business district of Gurnee and needs more recognition.

The chicken & biscuits reign supreme over any other chicken I've ever eaten in my entire life and I hope for continued success and prosperity for the owner of this local favorite who's a very...

The owner and staff were incredibly friendly, and their passion for food was evident in every dish that came out of the kitchen. I ordered the moms spicy bbq wings, mashed potatoes, fried chicken, chicken tenders, dirty rice, biscuits, onion rings, and a mint julep. The fried chicken was simply amazing. It had a perfect crispy exterior, while the meat inside was tender and juicy. The seasoning was on point, with just the right amount of flavor. It was clear that the chicken was carefully prepared and cooked to perfection. While the fried chicken was outstanding, the garlic mashed potatoes were truly the star of the show. They were creamy and rich, with a bold garlic flavor that was simply irresistible. The potatoes were clearly fresh and high-quality, and they were whipped to perfection. I could not get enough of them. The mint julep, which was the perfect choice for a summer day. The drink was refreshing and cooling! Honestly everything I tried was amazing. I was thoroughly impressed. It was clear that the owner had put his heart and soul into the restaurant. From the warm and welcoming atmosphere to the carefully crafted dishes, every detail had been considered and executed with care. I could not have asked for a better dining experience. I live 40 minutes away, but I will be back...

If you blink cruising down highway 41, you'll miss this place. Just keep your eyes peeled for the Shell truck stop. The owner of mother cluckers, Jimmy, is on to something pretty good. I can't say it's the best chicken I've ever had in my life, because I've eaten a lot of chicken down south, and also drink a lot of sweet tea and eating a lot of mashed potatoes and corn on the cob. But, up here, this is absolutely the best fried chicken, because it's actually fried chicken, not broasted chicken, not pressure cooked chicken, it's fried! Not overly spiced, not dipped in a bucket of salt, not cooked to the point of shoe leather, huge pieces, kind of like baby turkeys, lol! And if you're just picking up to go, they're shrimp is delicious and so were there mushrooms and Italian beef. The bar area is well stocked, and they have video gaming there which really makes it a tight fit on busy nights. They are going to cater for us on a repast. About 500 pieces of chicken, enough beef to serve 400 people, it's fresh and delicious. Drop in and see Jimmy and his one of a kind chicken. He actually grew up in an area of Chicago that I did, right on Devon and Sheridan. A lot of African restaurants around that area. Be glad he relocated up this way.
