General Notes
One of the better fried chicken restaurants that I've been to. It's the perfect combination of spicy, crispy, and insanely juicy. In fact, that's probably what stands out the most about this place -- how juicy the chicken is. I tried the sando, the wings, and the quarter leg and all were good, but the quarter leg was definitely the standout (with the sando being a close second). It's definitely worth a visit, but be warned that it's VERY popular and the line can be quite long. You can choose the spiciness level, I would recommend going no higher than medium (in my opinion, it gets unenjoyably spicy beyond that)
Dishes Tasted
- ★☆☆☆ vinegar coleslaw -- this was quite unpleasant, not the greatest
- ★★★★ fries -- their fries are surprisingly really good
- ★★★☆ sando -- really good, excellent flavor combination, if it was made using thigh it would be even better.
- ★★★☆ wings -- still crispy and good, but they use the whole wing and not quite as juicy as the quarter leg
- ★★★★ quarter leg -- so juicy + crispy
