★★★★☆ 4.0 Samara Overvaag · Jan 2026

I am primarily pescatarian, but I really enjoyed this restaurant! I haven’t eaten fried chicken in ages, but this was awesome! I got the medium spice and thought it was just perfect. I think the price to quantity of food is excellent. I paid ~$12 for “The Hen” meal. I will definitely be coming back in the future! The only thing missing is syrup! The waffles are sweet enough though that it doesn’t make that much of a difference. I think normal waffles with syrup over both the chicken and waffles would be great! But it’s okay, you can order hot honey. The wait is also a little long, but it’s very much worth it.

Love everything here!! You can tell the quality is fantastic, and staff is super friendly! I love that everything is fried in beef tallow, flavor is incredible. I ordered the Buffalo chicken wrap and my husband got the Rooster. Portions are huge, and I personally don't mind a little wait if it's going to be freshly made for me. Check this place out, you won't be disappointed

Not worth the money, yea the chicken may be a little bigger than the average breast it was just your average chicken luke warm with zero flavor, cheese was not even melted , they just slapped it in there.... flavorless frozen fries, cole slaw was like pre made slop from their provider.... There is nothing homemade about this place at all, it was dead there and now I know why still took 30 minutes for a simple chicken sandwich. Over priced, a small side of sauce on the side was 75 cents..extra... their fountain soda tasted nasty.. flat... drink not included with meal... The place smelled like the marijuana dispensary next door... We won't be back.

Been here a few times since they opened and it keeps getting better every time. My kids LOVE the HUGE chicken strips and like most kids, they are picky about their chicken strips. Food coming out can be slow at times but it's worth the wait knowing you are getting super fresh chicken and fries every time. Great value for the portions as well which is hard to find these days!

Up charge for everything. For 2 basic sandwiches was gonna be about 40 bucks after up charges.and their connivence fee. I said ohhh there’s a connivence fee well I can just pay cash. Well there’s always a charge doesn’t matter cash or card, wow really. She said ya it’s our system I can go ahead and cancel your order if you like….. you know what ya for that much I’ll go eat at Sake, or nice sit down place.
