Chicken is good! Even the medium is spicy, be careful. Food came out fast and friendly. There are only 4 tables, but plenty of fun signage to entertain you while you're there.
The chicken tender platter with French fries was very good. I asked for mild and it had a nice little kick to it; very good sauce. I also got the house sauce for dipping & it was very good. This is counter service with booth style seating. The order process was fast & correct. Friendly staff. Good lunch!
Came here on Saturday afternoon with 8 teenage girls. 3 of them chose not to eat because they weren't hungry, and the other 5 all ordered something different than each other. Now if you know anything about teenagers, they are picky eaters. I can say that everyone of them was absolutely amazed with the food. They thanked us so much for getting them to try something other than McDonald's and other places. I had the specialty chicken sandwich. Medium. And it had the perfect amount of kick to it. A touch less than Popeyes spicy chicken sandwich and more than the other guys who don't open on Sunday. The fries, onion rings, wings, and fried chicken, were all reportedly amazing and "wayyyy better than uncle Remus". The ambiance was perfect. Small enough to be cozy. But large enough to hold about 15 guests. I imagine most ppl take their food to go. And here is what puts them above and beyond. The three girls who weren't hungry...the employees brought out a tray of food for them out of the kindness of their hearts. They were very appreciative and told me they ate it even though they didn't have to room for it. The girls were absolutely humbled by their generosity. Amazing food. Amazing employees. What more could you ask for?
Delicious! I ordered the 3 tender combo, which comes with the tenders, which you can get spicy or not, fries, and a roll. I took my food to go, but there was limited space to eat, although the place was completely empty. I easily could've gotten the 2 chicken tender combo, since I couldn't even finish the meal with 3. The roll just seemed like a roll from a bag, but it definitely helped me cool off my mouth! Overall, yummy chicken and hopefully I'll be back soon!
Underrated, delicious, reasonable prices!! Friendly staff. Recommend anything on the menu. Nice seasoning and stayed crispy even on a drive home. The a la carte menu is great if you don't like sandwiches.
