I really like chicken tenders. We consulted with our listeners, readers, family members and friends and here is our list of some of The Best Chicken Tenders in The Atlantic City Area.

We know that you know this… However, chicken tenders are not chicken wings. These are boneless beauties, that we find absolutely delicious.

Our list is not ranked in any particular order of preference. They’re all really good and worth your visit.

My unwavering standard is that they must be flavorful and not chewy.

When I encounter chewy chicken, it is very disappointing and inedible.

HERE’S OUR LIST:

JULIANO’S PUB & GRILL - EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, NEW JERSEY

The Juliano’s chicken tenders are consistently outstanding. The texture and taste are perfect. They cut easy with your fork.

I have never, ever had a bad chicken dish from Chick-Fil-A.

The flavor and overall tenderness is absolutely wonderful.

Inexplicably, they recently discontinued their longtime chicken tenders. However, their chicken nuggets are, perhaps the best ever made anywhere

Even though this is a hyper technicality, we’re including Chick-Fil-A on our list … because they are that good.

ROBERT’S PLACE - MARGATE, NEW JERSEY

This was a jewel of a restaurant, that was infused with New Orleans flavor.

The menu was great and so are the chicken tenders. as witnessed above.

We’re giving them this honorable mention in honor of their successful past.

Di Orio’s is very well known for Tenders Tuesday and Wings Wednesday.

Attention to detail, highest quality chicken, cooking technique, texture and flavor is the reason at Di Orio’s.

As always, our lists are not complete and we unwittingly omit deserving establishments.
