My mom and I are something of self-proclaimed spicy chicken sandwich connoisseurs. We make our own sandwich and we have a... tradition of trying every spicy chicken sandwich restaurant we can find. We have tried a few dozen different sandwiches, andwe've been perfecting our recipe for about 4 years. We have never, ever had a spicy chicken sandwich as good as the one we hadhere. It was LEAGUES better than any sandwich we have had before, and much better than the one we made, which was our previouscrowned champ. Not only was the sandwich the best we have ever tasted, but the employees were lovely to talk to. We talked tothe owners son (or he may have been the co-owner), who told us the story of his dad perfecting the chicken sandwich over 20years while he taught culinary arts. If you are into chicken sandwiches, or hot food at all, this is definitely worth a stop. Irecommend the spicy chicken with the level 2 (hot) sause, or level 3 if you really like hot food. For special requests you canask for level 4! Read more

The most crunchy chicken sandwiches I've had so far in the Rochester area. They have a wide selection of sandwich options, like... the local classic Buffalo chicken sandwich to a Banh Mi influenced chicken sandwich. They also have a very cheesy 'Mac & Cheese'side-dish, as well as a side-dish they call the "Nest". Which is their take of 'fries', which you will need to experience. Read more

Incredible chicken sandwich - satisfying crunch, tender meat, biting spice. I got the spicy sandwich, and it easily rivals any... of the hot chicken style I?ve had in Nashville. Friendly staff were the cherry on top. Highly recommend! Read more

So impressed by Chick Magnet! The restaurant itself is quite small but when I visited on a Monday night I was pleasantly... surprised to see 4 people behind the counter working. Our food was cooked very quickly and the quality was amazing. Everyone inmy party loved their food. The chicken was fried to perfection and the flavors paired perfectly. Even the salad with non-friedchicken was full of flavor. Definitely worth the trip if you don't live on Penfield. Read more

We ordered the magnet and the Ripley. They are so good that we immediately wanted more and added the fiesta (May special). They... have very juicy fry chicken breast and good seasoning to go with the sandwich. All are very good. We thought we are taking apicture of the fiesta to write about this good place but we could not wait and was only able to take a photo of half of thefiesta. Definitely coming back! Read more

We flew all the way from the West Coast for this place!* The chicken here is so good! And huge. And hot... Piping hot (be... careful slamming it in your mouth). Loved the Chick Magnet sandwich (I added bacon to mine), the Cali Chick sandwich, 585Finger Plate, and the Loaded Nest! Delicious! And the people here or totally cool and nice. ???? *(Okay, maybe we didn't flyin just for this place. We just found it. But next time we're in town, we're definitely coming back.) Read more

WOW! I am just a few bites into my 585 Finger Plate but it's just that damn good that I had to stop eating so I could post my... review immediately. I have a new favorite chicken restaurant and still plenty of dishes to try! I ordered over the phone andadded a soda and I didn't notice until I got home that I didn't receive it. Food is so good I'll get over it. You must try ithere if you love chicken! Seriously, this 585 Finger Plate is incredibly flavorful and the chicken melts in my mouth! Bravo,Chick Magnet! Read more

Phenomenal taste, generous sized portions, quick and professional service. This is an amazing place that the state of New York... should brag about and be proud of!! We bought the 585 Plate which had two large chicken strips, meat sauce, Mac salad, andfries. It was seasoned with a spicy mayo type sauce. All food is made to order and the wait time is relatively short. You cancall ahead also. Read more
