    The Chicken Supply is soooo good. I've gone back multiple times after trying this food truck for…read morethe first time last month and recommended it to my friends! It's located in the Beer Star lot which is pretty small and has limited parking, but parking in the area isn't too bad. It's nice that you can dine in at Beer Star with your Chicken Supply order! And Beer Star is pet friendly! We love seeing all the dogs that come to hang out, and can't wait to bring our dog one of these days. My boyfriend loves their chicken bites, but the thigh is my personal favorite. The wings are really good too, but I think they're too much work compared to the other 2 cuts. All of the chicken is perfectly fried. It's so crispy and light on the outside, while the chicken meat is juicy and flavorful. I wouldn't be surprised if they use MSG because the chicken is very addicting. I've tried a number of their sides but the garlic rice is my favorite. It's very fragrant if you love garlic! The loaded fries were good in the sense that the fries are very crispy and the toppings are very tasty. However, the toppings are sparsely drizzled over the top level of fries, so once you eat through that layer, you're left with regular fries. The collard greens were very tasty but I found them to be too salty to eat on its own or with the chicken; that being said, I think it goes really well with rice! Their pickles are flavored well and pair up so nicely with their fried items. The marinated veggies were okay. They are served cold and were my least favorite out of everything that I've tried. Overall, this is one of my new favorite places and can't wait to be back!

Ordering and payment was a snap though this place is pretty pricey! We ordered the chicken bites, garlic fried rice and the marinated veggies and dined inside Beer Star. It was packed at 5 pm on a Friday. Service was prompt. 5 min wait for piping hot food is not bad. Once inside Beer Star, we found a table. It was surprising to see so many kids running around, family gatherings and being a pet friendly business a lot of them furry friends. Getting to the food, it was truly amazing. The chicken bites was the star of the show. Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Perfectly battered and thoughtfully crafted. Its gluten and celiac free. We got the chicken bites loaded (for a couple of extra bucks) with hot oil and aioli. The garlic fried rice was slightly al-dente and quite oily. It slightly complemented the chicken. imo it could have used a few more ingredients like eggs?. The marinated veggies was fine and mostly eggplant. Next time I would probably stick with the chicken and try their wings with hot honey. Organic ketchup, napkins and spoons are self serve by the food pickup window. Limited hours 4 to 8 pm and yes they do run out of food, so go early. It a small parking lot (7-8 cars) with some street parking mostly taken up by Beer Star patrons.

I opted on the cheddar bay biscuit, got my man the cornbread, got the Oreo for my son, Cinnamon Toast Crunch for my daughter, and my niece also got the Oreo. Each one SLAPPED!!!! The chicken was also generously portioned and well seasoned. They did not disappoint. I enjoyed the art they selected in the building. They also had a couple humorous signs at the entry that make the place feel very chill and laid back. I'm looking forward to going back.

He had the Blueberry waffles and chicken and I had the Southern Cornbread and spicy chicken. The food was good, the chicken was moist and truly spicy!! The service was TERRIBLE! The girl that took our order was not happy to be there AT ALL! We stepped up to the counter to order, forget asking any questions. You could not understand what even her question of dipping sauce or original or spicy was. Not in a language barrier way but she was basically whispering in a way to not engage. It seemed like there was a steady stream of customers so for the owner that is nice, I am glad for that but I wouldn't run back due to the very unfriendly service.

    I've been here a few times to this location to attest that the fried chicken is delicious!…read moreIt's right next to the Tacoma Mall (literally on the corner). Parking is shared with the mall parking lot; easy to find when it's not busy, but can be challenging to maneuver when it does get busy. Seems like there is just one entrance at the front to the store, where the line is set up from the door so it doesn't feel like there is much room, especially if you're ordering takeout and have to wait for your order. I like to order ahead with the Jollibee app since it offers rewards with a points system and also to limit social interactions. My order is usually ready by the time I arrive, so no complaints there. What's great about Jollibee fried chicken is that it's fried perfectly, even when it's not fresh. I'm not going to question the magic behind it, I will just say it tastes crispy and yummy and tastes great with rice or the gravy that it comes with. The portions are fair for the price. My pre-teen son likes their spicy chicken sandwich; for the "spice," it comes with Sriracha mayo and jalapeños but we usually exclude the jalapeños. The chicken tenders taste a bit mediocre and chewy for me, so probably won't order that again. When it comes to sides, the mashed potatoes and the spaghetti is good! The spaghetti is a bit on the sweeter side for me, but I like all the ingredients mixed into it. I can taste some meat (beef or sausage?) and cheese. I tried it for the first time yesterday and might order it again. I haven't tried the fries here since the pics don't look all that impressive to me. You can't go wrong with the dessert pies if you're craving something sweet. They do have the ube pie here and the peach mango pie. Drink options are fairly limited though.. I mean, you have your classic soda options but the only specialty drink they offer is their pineapple quencher drink. I was expecting this location to offer similar drink options compared to the Mack Rd/South Sac location in California (I frequented that location when I lived there but recently moved to Washington). They had a coconut dream freeze and lychee iced tea and other drink options I really enjoyed, but there's nothing like that at this location. Hence the 4 stars since I'm mainly just coming here for the fried chicken. Another reason is because some items appear out of stock. I wad able to order adobo rice for my previous visit a few weeks ago but when I went earlier this week, that option wasn't available on the app (which was why I decided to try out the spaghetti). They currently are doing a limited time collab with Final Fantasy XIV where you can get an exclusive "Eat Chicken" emote with purchase of the FFXIV box meal or 6 pc bucket bundle, but personally, I feel that it's overpriced and you're paying about $7 for the emote. If you haven't had Jollibee before, I'd recommend trying their chicken at least once. Definitely better quality than Popeyes and KFC (with the exception of the chicken tenders).

    Wow. Great tasting chicken, awesome biscuits and excellent choice of sides. Friendly clean and…read moregreat experience all around. We had the 2 piece chicken with side, drink and pie for $14. We had more than enough food for two women. The rice and mashed potatoes were well made and flavorful. The biscuits out of this world and I did not miss the American style butter and jam add. But the chicken! Wonderful! And I usually go to a Korean chicken place but this is now in my to places for the best chicken. Pro tip: Don't want pie? Just say and save a $1 Service: outstanding Cleanliness: great Restrooms: clean gender neutral Myfitnesspal: Yes!

I ordered the spicy chicken tenders combo which came with a roll and I ordered the mashed potatoes and gravy. The chicken tenders were crisp and had a nice heat to it. Not too spicy. The roll is consistently so good. One never feels like enough but I know if I order an extra it wouldn't leave me with that wanting more feel. This time was the first time I've ever tried the mashed potatoes and gravy. I really enjoyed it to the point where it's my new favorite side. The potato was creamy and smooth with the perfect amount of gravy. I thoroughly enjoyed how there was black pepper in the potatoes.

Furthermore, the service has dramatically improved. The service is focused on the needs of the customer. The food is now fresh, tasty, and hot. The fried chicken tasted like it was homemade. Clearly they have devoted themselves to following the original recipes of the founder. The ambiance consists of cleanliness even in the restroom. If you have not been to this location, or if you have not visited for a while, I recommend you do so. The new direction is refreshingly good and the food is too!

    Bestie and I stopped by DND Soul in the middle of running errands on a Saturday, and I have to say…read more from the moment we walked in, the vibe was there. First off, the playlist? Straight cuts back-to-back. Whoever had control of the music understood the assignment. The atmosphere was chill, welcoming, and just had that cool, laid-back energy. The customer service was amazing as well. The lady at the front greeted us with such great energy that it instantly set the tone for our visit. Now let's get to the food. I had the catfish with collard greens, black-eyed peas and rice, plus white bread. My best friend had cod with mac n yams, red beans and rice, and cornbread. The sides actually came out before the entrée, and we were so hungry that we completely forgot about taking pictures of everything. The food was definitely giving comfort-food energy and was top tier overall. The catfish? Whew, so bomb and full of flavor. Oh and let's not forget the homemade tartar sauce. If I had one small critique, some dishes leaned a little more on the salty side for our preference, but not enough to stop us from coming back. We were actually too full to even try dessert, and now it's officially on our to-do list for the next visit. Overall: good food, good vibes, good music, and great customer service. We'll definitely be back.
