★★★★☆ 4.0 John Dean · Nov 2025

Our first trip here. We found the restaurant seating bigger than expected with an open floorplan. You order and pick up your food from a counter wixh was very clean. The menu set up was easy to read and understand. Our order take, Drew, was friendly and helpful. The chicken was cooked perfectly and we both thought tasted good.I had medium heat and thought that was a good discription The fries were also nice and crisp and lightly seasoned. I am sure that we will go back again.

Food was simply just ok. I had a Mac and cheese medium bites. It was $11 and basically it was 80% fries. 15% Mac and cheese and 5 bites of chicken. Just little baby chicken bites. Felt it was a rip off for $11. I did get a sandwich and it was good. The coleslaw with chicken and pickle was decent. Just dry. My dad had 2 chicken tender meal no spice. It was dry. The location is super cool the service was quick. Plenty of parking and the store was clean. Just not worth the $ imo.

I had a decent experience dining here. The chicken tenders were good, but nothing extraordinary. The menu didn’t offer much variety beyond white meat chicken breasts. I wasn’t a fan of the red coloring on the chicken, it got messy and left my fingers stained, plus there were too many crumbs falling off. The fries were tasty, but the combo meals felt a bit pricey, especially since drinks weren’t included.

Love this place I come here every other week and it’s been amazing. One thing that people should look out for is if your planning to get the most spiciest level (Reaper) you have to sign a waiver before you can get your order and I’m still giving them 5 stars in my opinion the spice level no higher than medium is the best

Great place! Staff are always really friendly, service is slower than usual drive thru joints, but the food is worth the wait! It makes sense once you taste it why it took a bit to get out the window. Jordan did awesome!
