Chatman's has some of the best fried chicken in town! My drive home is usually about 20-25 minutes and when I get home the chicken is still crunchy. Amazing mac and cheese too! Great service and attitude from the staff! Y'all rock!

I'll start by saying my fiancée and I live in Houston area. My parents live in San Antonio and now every time we visit I told him I NEED me some Chatmans! We got engaged 11/29 and the following day this was still the stop I wanted to make even with him telling me I could have anything I wanted to eat before we head home. The food is amazing, it speaks for itself. But the hospitality!? Oh my, I love coming in for a chat with any of the workers. The owner, his wife and their son walked around checking on every table. They make sure you're good and don't need anything. The customers the times we've went become like family. We chat amongst each other while eating great food, and if you know you know that's what good food does. Brings people from all backgrounds together! Thank you Mr Chatman for a great establishment.

Great service, fabulous food, great prices! We went inside to order a to go order during their lunch rush and everything was on point! Portion sizes were huge and made about 2.5 meals each! We ordered Spicy Strips, lemon pepper strips, okra, Mac n cheese... and had no complaints! Thank you to the staff at Chatman's!

Amazing Chicken we took it home and it was still amazing when I got home!! Great customer service and easy menu gave samples of what else was available.

First timer here! And man I can honestly say the food was delicious and the service was amazing! Can definitely recommend a 10/10 for others to try! I had the five pice tenders in the spicy lemon pepper season. Fries were very well seasoned and the gravy was good! Will be back again.

What an experience San Antonio! I got to try the legendary Chatman's Chicken on the Eastside of San Antonio and I'm just floored by the delicious chicken I tasted! The owner Mr. Chatman is just an incredible human being and after talking with him for 5 minutes, I realized why this restaurant is so beloved. Every Tuesday, they have a $1.99 special for a two piece dark chicken. The Fried Riblets are so damn good and I also loved the Chicken Fried Steak! On top of all of that, they also have delicious sides with homemade Potato salad, Mac & cheese, and Mashed potatoes.

I stopped by today and got GREAT service in the drive thru. The chicken was bomb- fresh, hot and crispy. The kool-aid, just like when I was a kid! The mac was ok, but my least favorite was the sweet potatoes. They were runny and mushy, reminded me of baby food lol. I wanted like pecans and brown sugar in them. I'd still go back tho, can't beat good service. I asked if they had bread, which I got a roll, but I wanted corn bread. Not sure if they have it or not, as I wasn't very specific.

We were invited here by a friend that loves this place. I got a two piece spicy and my boyfriend got a two piece regular. The chicken itself was pretty good though the batter could use a little more seasoning. Even the "spicy" chicken was just regular chicken with Cajun seasoning sprinkled on top. The sides were great. Loved the corn fritters and the collard greens. Staff was friendly. There are no free refills on drinks though.

When I'm out of Austin, I look for any promising-looking fried chicken joint, with a special emphasis on locally-owned non-chain places, and I hit the jackpot with Chatman's. It isn't in the nicest part of town, but in my experience, that is where the Real Deal is usually found. By "real deal," I mean actual bone-in, bona fide fried chicken--and not those dastardly places that just have wings, or everything but breasts! Yes, I am a fried chicken purist. The nice man behind the counter greeted me and immediately asked if I was a first timer. When I said yes, he offered me a sample Fried Riblet--a bite-sized chunk of dangerous deliciousness. I wanted ten more, but I was on a chicken mission. For chicken, they offer three varieties: original, spicy, or lemon pepper. The latter two involves sprinkling seasonings over the original, so for my first taste, I kept it simple. I ordered the 2-piece mixed with fries. The chicken itself was my favorite variety: nice big pieces with a solid well-seasoned crunch and moist meat in breast and leg. The fries were skinny. Not my preferred type, but these were fine, fresh, and hot. The roll was the standard out-of-the bag throwaway. If they had biscuits or cornbread, I'd have died and gone to heaven. As I sat and ate, I just loved the vibe. Some customers were obviously regulars, but everyone was welcomed, and the staff felt like a family. The man who'd taken my order came to check on me, and stayed to chat. He turned out to be Mr Chatman himself. It's clear that he is responsible for all that is good in his restaurant. He spent years learning the business, and serves as manager as well as owner, and he is obviously dedicated not only to great food, but to serving the community. Chatman's feed those who cannot pay, mentor their employees, and give back to their community. Great fried chicken, and a business I can feel good about supporting! Win win win. I'm already planning another visit to San Antonio. This time I'll save room for more of those riblets!
