Loved this restaurant. Awesome chicken and pretzels with cheese and Dunkel beer on tap too. Will be going back again soon.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Neight DaGreight · Nov 2025

The chicken texture was A++! Crispy, crunchy. A young kids dream skin! The chicken flavor was a B. It was really good but it wasn't great. I would gladly order it again with no problem though. Macaroni was a solid F-. It was super watery and extremely tasteless. The worst I've ever had. Mashed potatoes was a another solid F-. Extra dry the gravy didn't help, it was falling apart, crumbling into pieces onto my shirt like a powdered donut. Gravy was really dark and repelled the potatoes. It's like it had a protective cover over the gravy like it had skin, again the worst I've ever had. The party wings were an A on the texture and a C on the taste. The sweet chilli sauce was lackluster. The fish and chips were a C+. Two very small pieces of fish and waffle fries for $16 was not worth it at al

I came here one evening thinking it was another chicken joint called “Roosters”. Boy was i shocked to arrive and have it not be Roosters. The chicken out front was misleading, but it might have been the best mistake I’ve ever made. The food was sublime. I got the fish hoagie (a risk i know at a chicken joint but it was great). I also got a bowl of the freshest soup this side of West Virginia. The customer service? It was excellent. Like eating at a fine dining establishment. All i saw were the faces of smiling customers. The only knock was a little burn mark outside the building. That was odd. Other than that, I’m gonna recommend this to my book club. Ronald Larkin JR is a star in the making. Ever hear of Guy Fieri? More like “Wishes he was RonLarkin Fieri” haha. Loved every second.

Known for their fried chicken, this nice family restaurant with lots of other menus choices. Servings were generous and tasty. Large open dining area with lots of memorabilia. Nice bar and outdoor seating. We called and was told we didn’t need reservations for our party of six arriving at 6…. They were wrong. They scrambled to put tables together for us. When the last half of our party arrived they were told it would be 20 minute wait. After being seated service was excellent. Parking could be tricky during peak hours.

Turkey Dinner...not real turkey, it is processed like Stoffer's frozen meals, mashed potatoes were from a box, and stuffing tasted like Stove Top. But the green beans were awesome. Very dissappointed as I thought they were a home-made restaurant. Burger was really good.
