Iris is the best chicken restaurant in Waterdown. They offer a wide variety of options with delicious sauces. The fries are freshly cut and the sides, such as macaroni salad, coleslaw, gravy, and potato salad, are all great. The chicken is juicy and flavorful, not overcooked. The portions are generous compared to Popeyes and KFC. The staff is very polite and helpful. I highly recommend this place! View all feedback.

What Ray G dislikes about Hello Iris:
The fries were undercooked, which has been a consistent issue. You can feel the freeze crunch when you bite into them. Overall, the flavors were very bland, with the sandwiches and chicken lacking any distinct taste. Everything seemed to blend together without any real distinction. View all feedback.

The food at this restaurant is incredible! The chicken is crispy, juicy, and packed with flavor. The maple chili sauce and macaroni were both delicious. The service from the guy working the counter was excellent. If I ever find myself in Waterdown again, this is where I will be bringing my friends.

This restaurant serves the best and freshest chicken in town. It is super crispy and absolutely delicious. You must try it and you won't want to go anywhere else. Wow!

We dined at this restaurant for the first time and were delighted with our meal. My wife and I plan to eat here more frequently in the future. We highly recommend Hello Iris over the chain chicken restaurants.

Girl on the phone was great. Young lad at the cash was very friendly. Nice experience just for a pick-up, and the chicken is the best friend chicken in the area hands down.

This is definitely the best place in Ontario for chicken sandwiches—there's no contest! You’re really missing out on an incredible culinary experience. Adding cheese and bacon takes it to a whole new level of deliciousness!

My partner and I thoroughly enjoyed our chicken sandwiches. I'm typically a fan of Popeyes for my chicken sandwich, but this was a significant upgrade for the same price. I highly recommend this place solely based on the quality of their chicken sandwich.

BEST CHICKEN PLACE IN WATERDOWN. Hello Iris offers a wide selection of chicken options partnered with many tasty sauces. The fries are fresh cut, and the sides (macaroni salad, coleslaw, gravy, and potato salad) are pretty standard, but great nonetheless. The chicken is not overly breaded, juicy (not dry), and very flavourful. The chicken pieces are generous sizes comparatively to Popeyes and KFC. The employees are also extremely polite and helpful. Would highly recommend this place!

The food was amazing. Ordering was very easy and the food was done quickly. The chicken was tender and juicy and honestly very good on its own but with your order you also get a selection of dipping sauces and while I tried to vary my order and get some more standard sauces I also experimented a little and tried some I might not regularly order but I was impressed with all of them. While I wasn't able to spend much time inside with dine in still not being an option it was very clean and the deco

Incredibly friendly staff! Great variety on the menu, but absolutely love their fried chicken. If you like fried chicken, this is the best place in the Hamilton/waterdown area to go. Will be back many times!

Sit down restaurant portion is closed. There are 5 stools at the window counter. Really good chicken fingers. Not greasy. Long list of dipping sauces. Definitely worth going back again.
