  Been meaning to try this popular fried chicken joint for a while, and found my opportunity late Friday night. Thirty minutes to close, but still plenty of people inside.
  
  Standard fast-food menu options, complete with meal deals. Decided on the Two-Piece Meal ($6) - a couple of heavily fried pieces of chicken with a side of your choice (corn for me). Breading is hefty but not as greasy as I thought it would be. Seasoning could be better, as I was needing some sort of sauce towards the end of the meal. Corn is your basic fare - simply steamed and served.
  
  Simple spot to get a good amount of food at a low price.

  As a lover of all chicken fried, I've long awaited trying Jollibee. When it comes to fast food fried chicken, I'm a Popeyes over KFC fan. I'm looking for juicy, meaty chicken, with a crispy, flavorful skin. We got a family meal of 6 pieces, mashed potatoes with gravy, fries, and the pancit noodles. It also came with 3 mango pies. Also got a Halo halo
  
  The pros: I am a typical Asian and only like dark meat which is what they serve here. The skin is crispy and not too oily or heavy. You can't go wrong with gravy. The fries were decent.The servers are super friendly and happy to answer any questions. The mango pie was a nice change from your McD's apple pies.
  
  The cons: The chicken itself did not live up to Popeyes. It wasn't as juicy and the skin wasn't as flavorful. The sides were very mediocre. Nothing I'd crave. The prices were much higher than other chains. The restaurant was super overcrowded and hard to get to seat.
  
  Overall, too expensive for what you get. Popeyes ftw!

  This is a Filipino fast food chains.  I sometimes crave for Jollibee. I love the smell as soon as you get in to this food chain. The smell of chicken and gravy brought me back to my childhood memories.
  It is always packed and you have to know the tricks in saving table and seats. It is clean but very very small place inside both in Queens and Manhattan.
  
  There is just one noticeable about the Jollibee USA. The Chickenjoy looks crispy and well cooked outside but once you started eating, it's inside is still under cooked and raw, which is very dangerous because you can have Salmonella. This didn't happen to me once but many times.  Both Jollibee in Queens and Manhattan location does serves this undercooked chicken.  I stopped eating their chicken here in US.  It is ridiculous and it is unsafe for my health.
  
  The Staff are always nice.  I highly recommend not to order their Chickenjoy but everything else is great and will make you feel like home in Philippines.

  In our opinion, Jollibee is the best fast food restaurant . Their fried chicken was juicy with crispy cover and it was amazingly matched with sweet gravy. Pasta they served looked simple but it was so tasty that you can't stop to have more.
  We recommend to try Pineapple juice which is great for summer.

  And my 300th review goes to the one and only Jollibee! If you're Filipino and haven't stepped foot into one, you're trippin. A famous eatery in the Philippines that brought over their famous chicken joy and mouth watering peach mango pie to the US, this was my favorite fast food chain growing up. We ordered a few items to take back to the hotel, the eatery was quite small to dine in.
  
  A few of my favorites:
  Filipino spaghetti - the delicious sweet sauce with hot dog pieces and cheddar cheese over the noodles, sounds weird but I promise you it's scrumptious!
  Chicken Joy - the batter they use for the chicken is spot on! Crispy and finger licking good, very different from Popeyes, KFC, and Bojangles. It's recommended to use gravy as the dipping sauce.
  Peach Mango Pie - flaky shell crust on the outside and peach mango filling goodness on the inside. Way better than McDonald's apple pie!
  Yummy Burger - simple but delicious! I'm hooked to the sauce they use in the sandwich. This burger brings me back to my childhood.
  
  The closest Jollibee to my area is Virginia Beach. I guess I'll have to make a trip out there this summer and stock up on the peach pies!
