In need of a quick bite to eat but not willing to sacrifice quality? We got you!

Fast-food restaurants are not hard to come by in Florida, let alone the U.S. as a whole. But just because this cuisine is served at an optimal pace, doesn't mean the quality should suffer.

While there are many convenient spots to stop for a quick bite to eat across the state, only one ranked higher than the rest, not only for how fast they serve their food, but how delicious it tastes! If you've been looking for an exceptional place to order a quick meal, look no further than the best fast-food restaurant in all of Florida!

According to a list compiled by LoveFood, the best place to grab a quick bite in Florida is at PDQ Chicken located across the state! This fast-food joint was praised for their signature sauces among other desirable menu options.

Here's what LoveFood had to say about the best fast-food restaurant in the entire state:

"Founded in Tampa in 2011, PDQ (People Dedicated to Quality) quickly took the fried chicken world by storm, gaining a fanbase for its hand-breaded tenders and nuggets, loaded sandwiches and milkshakes. Must-order dishes include the Honey Butter Chicken Sandwich and crispy waffle fries, while signature sauces – in flavours like creamy garlic and sweet sriracha – are irresistible. These days the regional chain has more than 60 locations in Florida, North Carolina, New Jersey and New York."
