Dixie Lee proudly serves delicious chicken & seafood. Our meals and snacks are prepared with fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Great food; great service!
The most underrated chicken restaurant in town. The chicken is so good, portions are huge and prices are fair. Get out there and support this restaurant, would be a shame if they had to close.
One of the best fried chicken&seafood in the city. Lovely personal and nice and cozy atmosphere ❤️
Love this place. Best clams and fries. Google has the hours incorrect. Fredericton NB location is open until 8 pm!!!
Average looking place, great staff very friendly and the food was good. Chicken was darker than I expected but still tasty. My wife enjoyed the fish and chips.
Good food, good value, great service. Until changing jobs and having my office be on the North side of the city, I had never heard of Dixie Lee before. That was a shame because boy is it tasty. Their chicken is crispy and has a noticeable difference in flavour profile from your standard KFCs and Mary Browns which offered my tastebuds something new and flavourful. Their fish while oily, maintains a suburb, mouth watering crunch. Their seafood offerings are deep fried and delicious. Also, I don't know if all locations are like this, but whether it's a long time employee or new hire, the staff at this location were friendly, informative and just overal nice people to be around for a few minutes at lunch times. As my coworker said, I think they've got me "Dixie Leedicted".
Best Bang for your Buck poutine in fredericton. Good quality/quantity for the price, gravy is salty but good, fries are nice and crispy and the cheese is alright.
First of all, the chicken is not fried but roasted. They don't even put breadcrumbs on it. Secondly, the cheese on the poutine taste not fresh at all. Overall, it was a bad experience for us and not recommended it. It taste not good at all.
This is a home of fried chicken and a bunch of seafood. Options are great with onsite generous parking. The portion is definitely fill you up. Once it locates on riverside, the view is great in the evening.
Great food, the restaurant needs a big update
Best chicken, hands down! Not greasy & slimy like KFC.
Love their coleslaw.
Ordered a breast, leg fries and gravy....got a hip and leg that was basically a bone. I always saw people arguing over what they got ,versus what they paid here... this is why.Gravy was ok tho.
Love the chicken here! And the 2 Econo Dinners deal for $23.25 is pretty sweet!
I mean, its Dixie Lee. Big box of grease at an ok price. Mmm I want some now thinking about it.
It hits the spot every time!
Excellent chicken staff is pleasant and dine in is available
My wife enjoyed the take out 2 piece chicken with fries. It tasted fresh and nicely seasoned with good fries. Portion was adequate.
Staff definitely is not friendly. Chicken they gave was way too small for a whole part. Asked if chicken can be replaced but staff said she cannot do anything for a small chicken part. Its not a small chicken part, its half of a drumstick for crying out loud. If it were only a whole small drumstick, I wouldnt ask.
The fish and chips are wonder. The portions are worth the money. Very reasonable prices.
Way too much grease on chicken. Fries were OK. Generous portions of chicken. Did not like the white pepper or Chipotle on chicken!
Went for curbside pickup. A little late, but good food.
Been going there for decades but like everywhere else the price has gone up to start off the new year and the Econo dinners for two has increased substantially and we sure couldnt figure out why unless the bag of crinkle cut fries that was divided between two Econo dinners was packed on top of the spindly two pieces of chicken buried underneath was the reason.Also had asked for potato salad instead of the half a bag of fries which has been no problem in the past but that didnt happen either.Disappointed to say the least because Dixie Lee has always been our go to restaurant for chicken for many years.
Stopped here before Christmas. Got the 2 piece chicken, fries and coleslaw. The chicken was awesome, not greasy. Ate all my fries...no hard ones. Very impressed with the food. Will be back again. Keep up the great service to your customers.
Staff were very condescending
Chicken poutine for the win! Big ol serving, lots of curds and meat. Very good price for the amount of food. Very clean restaurant. I usually wont eat Dixie lee south of Mirimachi, but this was REALLY good!
All good
Very fresh and tasty products. Some people want immediate service at these types of resturants, but the few minute wait for fresh fries and chicken are way worth it. Ive eaten at alot of Dixie Lees - this one scores towards the top for food quality. The staff are great. Friendly & pleasant. Reasonable pricing. Parking: A bit dicey due to layout.
Great food and great owner and Staff
Was told the restaurant does not take small orders over the phone: makes for difficult pick up on a short lunch.
Best fried chicken in the province. I go every time I am in Fredericton or Moncton.
Mac salad. Nuf said
The best Dixie Lee I have been to besides Chatham (Miramichi). Pasta salad here is a notch above.
Customer service was great. The chicken and fries were fresh and hot ... Best Dixie Lee Ive ever had! Parking: Parking was fine, it was on a corner lot so easy access to roads. Kid-friendliness: Very friendly to my 6 year old grandson.
Not big fan on chicken
Love the macaroni salad that comes with the iced tea chicken okay depending on what type you buy
Family and I enjoyed our visit. Good/Fresh food. Good service. Some confusion, menu is a little much to understand but we figured it out.
The best chicken EVER. Id drive great distances for Dixie.
One of my favorites greasy but delicious
Unless your placing a large order to pick up they won t take your order. Never heard of a place that doesn t want to take money for their food
It was a great meal
Best fried chicken in town !!!! I was in.last week and ordered the fried chicken and poutine,and both were so good and also I love what they done to the inside of the place,it looks cute and really nice
Just about THE best option for fried chicken around these parts. Pro-tip, the farther north you go in the province, the better it gets.
Won t go again. Poutine was salty and just a bunch of mush and the chicken nuggets were also mushy and just gross.. through everything out and not worth $15
Chicken was great, fries is fries. Gravy I wouldnt order again. To much spices in it
The food is average, the building is dilapidated and not a plesant atmosphere.
Last summer, I was with my group of summer camp children (about 6 of them) and a couple children had to use the washroom while we went for a nature walk. The closest place was Dixie Lee s so we all went in. I asked if some of my kiddos could use their bathroom, and one of the workers rudely said that if we re not buying anything, then we cannot use their bathroom. Even after telling her that there were no other nearby places, she proceeded to tell me that she did not care. Really rude staff. Do better.
Greasy...
Their chicken is good.
Went here today and ordered the fish and chips dinner. The fish portions were thick and tasty. The box was loaded with fries and came with a small roll and coleslaw. A highly recommended place to stop by. I ll come by again soon for the chicken.
They have good poutines here
Best chicken in the north side. Friendly staff and the owners are great. FYI, North side KFC under new management have been known for cutting their chicken pieces in half in their buckets and calling it 2 pieces
Delicious food
MY CLIENT ISNT GOING TO ORDER AGAIN ,SHE SAID IT QAS A QASTED $20.00
Food was good but you have to search through the fries to find the clams.
I gave 1 star for the girl that took our order since she was very nice. I wouldve given none if not for her. Service was EXTREMELY FAST... I like fast but that was not normal fast... We started eating and my husband ask me if I found the taste weird on the chicken. I said it was a little burned but surely mustve been the oil taste We went there at 2pm on tuesday... We both got sick by 8pm. Am I mean really sick right ... We got poisoned. Big indigestion. I can tell you at one point I thought I was dying. Were 2 days later now and were still not well. Headaches and low energy since we still cant eat much (Just liquids). It was my first time in a Dixie Lee and wanted to try it for a very long time. But let me tell you that I wont even consider going back there ever again in my life. Just wanted to let people know if someone got sick that day and was wondering if anyone else was... Well we did!!
Food is always good here. Price is decent, too
Great, friendly service. Got my food quickly, and in a safe manner. The customers inside were all distanced. Love Dixie Lee chicken!
Chicken was fine but fish was undercooked resulting in a semi slimey batter on the inside.
The whole clam dinner was....sad. It was overpriced for the very small amount of clams. Honestly the best part of the dinner was the can of root beer. My first time at a Dixie Lee and my last, the service wasnt even friendly.
Chicken fillet meal was real good,however the nuggets were made from mechanically processed chicken and not near as good
Chicken was quite greasy and of poor quality, slimy. My wife just could not eat hers. I was disappointed compared to my last visit.
The food is awesome there. And they give you lots to eat in your order. The prices are great to. The service is quick. Its a great place to go for a supper.
A maritime favourite and for good reason - chicken is excellent. Having tried Popeyes, Churchs, KFC, etc, this chicken is right up there with the big chains. Super friendly staff and very clean on the inside.
Good CHICKEN..PERIOD..
Finally gave Dixie Lee a try after all these years. I was very surprised how delicious my meal was. I will definitely be coming back.
Well I thought was going to be better than KFC but I was wrong, not only wasnt good, the prices are outrageous.
Awesome service
For the price. Our expectations were not met. Mary browns or kfc are better choices.
Super tasty and friendly staff. What more can ya ask for?
If you like fried chicken and fries yum yum
Good food a little salty.
Good food and and dining area open.
Batter was undercooked, fish was tiny and not very good and poutine tasted old.
Fried Chicken was to Greasy , they would have to change there Fryer oil more often thats why there Chicken is to Greasy
My boyfriend goes here almost every Friday, for Poutine Friday. I also love their poutine, its very salty but very tasty if you want to treat yourself. I wanted to try the clams, so had those. They tasted fine and were good, just not the types of clams I was expecting. They seem just like frozen small clam bits, rather than strips. Im also used to NS fresh seafood, so my opinion might be a bit harsher! Though, I still give a 4 star and will be returning!
Love their chicken
2ps fish meal was the best !
Food is great and very friendly staff. I love a chicken poutine from here .
The service was excellent. Great staff. The chicken was not fresh. Tasted like it was sitting there way past a appropriate time. Which is very unusual for this place. As it was the first of many visits that I was very disappointed.
Great chicken great service
Tables were not very clean.
The BEST chicken in Fredericton!!
Had the 3 piece fish dinner, can with a bun fries coleslaw. Was very filling and well made.
I just love the taste of their chicken
Best chicken in Freddy : ) Visit weekly for the three piece Dixie Dinner. The crinkle fries are awesome as is the coleslaw : ) I wouldnt change a thing. Keep up the good work!
Fast, clean, staff were polite.
Some amazing fried chicken
Delicious food!
Great service
Its not the same cook
Best fish and chips in town
Walk into this location and ask a question about their chicken menu, was rudely responded to by one of their cashiers with what do you mean what kind of chicken do we have, the cashier then proceeded to walk out back and loudly speak and laugh about my question I had just asked.I felt like an idiot for asking a question and immediately didnt want to give my business to Dixie Lee...Maybe some training on customer service is needed
Great food and friendly staff
Always a great feed
Fast service, friendly staff and food cooked just right.
My wife and I just enjoyed the three piece chicken and fries....and it was simply amazing flavors. She couldnt finish hers, and well, I am no quitter. Every bite was perfect, fries were hot and delicious, and the added gravy was nice to see. Cant wait to go back.
Chicken and fries are better than KFC and Mary Browns however the Dixie Lee menu has been reduced due to Covid so I couldnt order what I really wanted.
Always have had great luck with the freshly cooked food and good service.
Every time Ive eaten here Ive been satisfied
Paid extra for all white meat all I got was the regular 3 peice paid more money too o well live and learn
Great service always fresh made .
Great food
Best fried chicken in town
They usually have really good chicken and popcorn chicken. Tonight I decided to try their chicken burger... Big mistake. It wasnt cooked. Had to throw it out... Waste of money.
Got the econo dinner. So many French fries and loved that they allowed me to substitute the roll & the coleslaw for an extra gravy and the potato salad for no extra charge! Great service, in and out in under 7 minutes!!
Best chicken in N.B. just try few them
Beats KFC
Great fried chicken. In summer we enjoy getting take out and eating in the park across the street.
The chicken was delish!
Always delicious.
Chicken is usually pretty good, but the sides are at best mediocre. Service seems a bit low energy at times as well.
Good stuff
Food was great and I found a 4 leaf clover
Great clams and fish
Best chicken ever
Love Dixie Lee. The chicken at this site was not As crispy as others, but it was still delicious.
Great food
Better than KFC... Greasy chicken like KFC, but it tastes better, and they use better quality oil for cooking which comes out in the flavor, and the fact that you cant feel your arteries actively clogging while enjoying your food
Like always. Great
Great fried chicken and seafood. Spotless restraunt!
Good
Had a great meal. Hot and fresh
The fries were old n hard wasnt to pleased n we usually get 2 dinners but wasnt worth the price this time, almost like it was refried
Reminds me of my high school cafeteria. Definitely food, but meh.
My husband, 4 year old and I went here on November 11th. I get a lot of places were closed today and if places were open, workers more than likely didn t want to work, I get it.... But honestly, don t treat paying customers like trash. Our order came to $40 that we could have spent else where; but where we have never ate here before, we wanted to give it a try. When I asked if they sold a certain meal, I was told sharply chicken and fish only ; I m sorry that my 4 year old asked for a cheeseburger. When our order was up, the number 9 was called out sharply, I wasn t told to enjoy my meal, if I needed anything, nothing; in fact the worker turned and walked away out back. Thank you for making our first experience a negative one and thank you for treating us so rudely! We will not advise people to come here nor will we ever be back to be treated so poorly. Keep in mind, I just paid your wage, so thanks a lot!
My favorite fried chicken. Never disappoints.
Server was so so nice and food was made fresh and hot
Service was ok and the food was hot. Had to ask for extra napkins as they were kept behind the counter. When youre eating fried chicken, most people want more than one napkin. The tables could have been cleaner so I gave it a 4 star.
Just bought a 3 piece meal but only got a 1 piece meal !!!!
Im usually very happy but tonight I waited 20 mins and no one told me why. Someone came in after me and got a big order before me and some 9f my food was missing. Like I said usually very good but tonight was an exception
