My sister and I came here a lot, sometimes with friends. They all loved it too. And always friendly service. I've seen many places remain open that honestly weren't all that great.

Expressing my heartfelt thanks to the owner on behalf of myself, my sister, my friends and the rest of the loyal customers. We will all miss Big Chicken!

The others are good but Big Chicken has it's own personality in the ambience which is relaxing, very comfortable to sit for awhile and relax and the food is Amazing!! I had the chicken strip plate with a piece of garlic toast, plus onion rings with sauce that was Soo good! It was all very filling. I washed this meal down with a pineapple cream soda. If people haven't tried it, it's worth trying. I'm scrupulous on prices as a lot of people and for the quality of the food and the place, it was reasonable to me.

Where has this been all my life, and why is it tucked in a small food court in a bowling alley!? I…read moreordered the Wild West Tater and honestly was expecting a fairly satisfying, but ordinary, baked potato with toppings. What I received was an amazing blend of super tender pork in a slightly sweet but tangy BBQ sauce, mac n' cheese, and a perfectly cooked (not hard or dry), very generously sized potato (big enough for two). On a chilly day, when you're hungry, this absolutely fits the bill. Warming and savory, but well balanced, and not greasy. After some bowling or billiards? Perfect. I was thinking this was probably the best flavor, when I saw the rotating ad for....a spaghetti potato pie. Will have to come back and try other varieties. The cashier was very helpful and patient explaining the menu. Checked the website and looks like they update the menu with new options too. They say they're "dedicated to perfecting the art of the baked potato," and they're doing exactly that. Along with it, they're also serving up one of the best craft-style fountain sodas, Stubborn Soda. Don't hesitate to make a little detour (or order delivery) to try this place. TIP: Located inside the HomeGrown Bowl center: from the main entrance, head down the hall to the right past the arcade; also near a side entrance.

We compared Guthrie's vs. Raising Cane's:…read more Guthrie's pros: chicken was great, a little chewy but the seasoning made it a lot better than Raising Cane's chicken fingers which lack much flavor and require salt. Guthrie's cons: the crinkle-cut fries were large and not very crispy. They were soggy, squishy, and a little soft, so that they tasted more like potato strips than fries; the service in the drive thru took about 5-10 mins which wasn't ideal. Overall, Guthrie's had better chicken but otherwise Raising Cane's was probably a better choice (both serve nearly identical menus).

I then asked if they had a soup option. Was told yeah, birra. 10 min later that was ready. Not coming back, now waiting to see if I get a refund for the missing potato. I paid for the soup separately. The service was slow and very apathetic. Like they didn't want to be there. If you decide to try this place, go in person to put in your order. Don't rely on the website for accurate info. Edit: 4 days later and the promised refund of $15 is still not on my catd. Supposedly the put it in and it was cleared by their processor. I still don't see it though. Plus, the manager I talked to was rude and hung up on me. Edit: 14 days later and Order.co and the HPP2 are now playing the pointing games. Bunch of theives. Done with ALL branches of this business.

There are so many tasty-looking choices. We've found them perfect for sharing, and this last time around they also offered us a sample of their homemade potato salad, which tastes like it was made fresh for a picnic right on the spot. We've also appreciated how clean both locations were, and how friendly the service staff was. I think the owner might have been working at the Hot Potato Pie 2 location, because we asked when they'll be coming to Reno and he said soon, coming to Virginia Ave. While stopping for a lunch potato has been a highlight of multiple Carson City trips for us recently, we're very much looking forward to easier access now that they're going to be local to us in Reno :)

Comfort food perfection. Everything tasted fresh and made with care. A couple quirks to know going in: * Beware the green salsa. It is SPICY. Do not mistake it for guacasalsa. It's actually spicier than the red salsa and has some serious kick. * Chips aren't free and only come in one large size, so plan accordingly if you're just looking for a small side. Overall, fantastic food, generous portions, and totally worth the stop. We'll definitely be back next time we're in town.

We ordered a total of 7 tacos and one tacos plate that comes with 2 tacos and rice and beans. Each tacos was $3.99 each. Don't let the price fool you like i did. Their street style tacos are a lot bigger then what we are use to in LA and very generous with the meat. You can definitely make 2 tacos with one. As for the meat we ordered the Asada, Pastor,Lengua, Buche and Cabeza. The pastor was just ok but the rest of the meat was delicious. Their salsa are were fantastic with a kick and they have 4 different types they give you. Ask for extra red salsa. Service was friendly and simple. You order from the outside and they'll call you number when it's done. Overall, food was solid and satisfying.
