I have a new favorite chicken place. The chicken is prepared so nicely, with so many different heat levels to choose from. It was so tender and juicy, while the sauce and kale slaw adds a perfect touch. The fries were hot and very crispy with a slight kick to them which was also very enjoyable. The customer service and atmosphere was very welcoming and adds to the experience. The only downside was it was expensive for chicken tenders, but other than that, I definitely recommend as a late night dinner place, or a good place t... read more

Very good! Seven flavors to choose from, very good milkshakes and it's very responsibly priced for the amount of food they give you. I will definitely be back!

It was okay. The service was good. The fries were above average. The Mac and cheese was just average. The chicken is pretty good but nothing exceptional. I wasn't impressed with the seasoning. I've had Nashville chicken that was a lot better but this was okay. At the price I'm not sure when I'll be back.

it was disgusting, what a waste of money! The Mac and cheese was very soupy , tenders were dry, the food stank, and everything was just nasty.

Went on vacation, decided I would spend a little extra. The price of the food itself was $15, which is very expensive and isn't worth it. The shake was the real problem, it had the consistency of water and the $2 extra I paid for m and ms was about half a bag poured ontop. All the m and ms just sunk to the bottom and for this terrible experience I had to pay $10.50. Staff was rude when I asked to get it fixed. I would steer clear, nothing makes it unique enough to charge these outrageous prices for poor quality products.

Good food. Horrible service. Took nearly 20 min in drive through. They literally charge for a cup of water. The same price as a fountain drink. That's not ok. I will not be going there again. Overpriced.

This could quite literally be one of the most uncomfortable dining experiences we've ever had. We were one of three dine in customers, and two to go orders. Every single one of the employees were awkward and didn't present the best hygiene. The interior of the restaurant didn't look dirty until you tried to sit down at the tables. We ordered the Dave's Bites and a combo with a tender and sandwich. The Dave's bites tasted like burnt flour, and had a horrible flavor. The tender and sandwich tasted fine, but was definitely lack... read more
