Editorial Review for Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant – by Citysearch Editors
In Short
Back in the '30s, families lined up to sample Cordelia Knott's famed fried bird. Those long waits inspired the family to open the adjoining theme park. The country-style vibe remains intact with paper placemats and waitresses in poofy dresses. The signature fried chicken dinner includes four crispy pieces served with mashed potatoes and gravy. The Knotts are also famous for their boysenberries--a slice of the tart boysenberry pie is a dessert menu staple.

THe food was good. The atmosphere/ cleanliness not as good. Service was good. Loved the biscuits that come with the meal. We didn't care for the sherbert or the cabbage. But Overall the fried chicken and mashed potatoes were fine. They were hot. The line wasn't long at 2pm on a Saturday. The price wasn't value, but it wasn't expensive, either.
Pros: biscuits, chicken
Cons: ambience

Albertson's Chicken was far better than the Knott's brand. I've eaten at the chicken restaurant in the past, and it seems like it has fell off tremendously. However, the biscuits were very good.Not worth the money.
