Review of Billy's Fried Chicken

This is my favorite restaurant! It’s hard to satisfy a fried chicken craving with celiac’s disease but Billy’s fried chicken is the answer. You would never be able to tell it’s gluten free by the taste and texture. I’ve had their food twice and so far haven’t had any issues with gluten contamination. They are not a dedicated gluten free facility but they only have one single item with gluten (the sandwich buns) and the staff are careful about keeping this separate from everything else and preventing cross contamination. Their truffle fries are really good (like so goddamn good), the sauce is phenomenal, and the fried chicken is just as crispy and way tastier than kfc -with the added bonus that I don’t feel sick after eating at Billy’s. My personal go to is their popcorn chicken, but I also really recommend the Japanese fried chicken. It’s kind of like fried teriyaki chicken and it is mouth watering.

They have entrees for as low as $12 which is simultaneously the cheapest and highest quality gluten free meal in the rogue valley. I am overjoyed to have an option for food that is tasty and celiac safe that I don’t have to cook myself, and that I can take friends to without feeling like they’re sacrificing tastiness of gluten centric kitchens to include me in an evening out. Billy’s is the best and you’re missing out if you don’t try it.
