My daughter placed an online order here, so I took here to pick up her food. While we were waiting,…read moreI decided to try the Mac and cheese with the first to the last hot sauce/seasoning. It wasn't busy inside and it was clean. I like the hand painted art on the walls. It did have an odd smell in the place that I couldn't tell if it was just from the constant frying of chicken and oil or if there was an exposed sewer line. The food was great! The chicken was crisp, moist, and flavorful. The mac by itself was creamy and perfectly cooked. The hot seasoning actually had some heat to it with a slight sweetness. The bowl came with a cup of creamy sauce, which to me had a weird tangy flavor. I didn't end up using it. The portion was huge! I could've had some for lunch and the rest for dinner, but I ended up splitting it 3 ways with my two little ones. They thought it was spicy, but still ate it. Next time, I'm going to try the plain chicken with mac.

Also, I only found it because of Yelp, so I should pay it forward! The service was incredible. I don't remember the young girls name, but my receipt says "KDS U" as server if that helps. She was so nice and patient with my millions of questions. And she pointed me in the right direction. When I got home and ate my 3 piece tenders with Mac n cheese, I was so happy. It was so tasty. I also got the classic and ranch sauce. She compared the classic sauce to raising canes, which was helpful. But I'll say this, the chicken is great without the sauce (unlike canes). I made sure to take my first bite before any dipping. The ranch is house made and also Delicious. And last, the price was great. I will definitely be back. I wasn't even that hungry and I devoured my food because it was so good! Thank you to the cashier again. She was so pleasant and helpful.

They usually cook the chicken to order to keep it super fresh, but the big Fishing Derby is in the Kern River Valley this weekend so they had some prepared in anticipation of the crowds. I wasn't mad! The food in the case was nicely displayed, the counters were clean. Pretty decent setup for "gas station" food! The chicken is nice and crunchy, and the thighs in the 2pc for $5 box were so moist and flavorful! Reminds me of a he Southern Fried chicken I grew up on (not the Colonel's.. this wasn't squishy). The biscuit they include in the box is tasty, too. The usual guy behind the counter was out to lunch and we were helped by a lady from the gas station side who was filling in and she forgot the butter and honey, but not a big deal. The biscuits were good "as-is". You can also get fried pies for dessert! They're actually fried, and they're shaped like empanadas. Normally $1.49, only $1 each with purchase - you can't beat the deal. The Apple was so good, plenty of cinnamon and just the right amount of sugar. The Strawberry had cream cheese in it and hubby says the strawberry filling reminds him of his Mom's homemade preserves. Delicious! I've heard the potato wedges are also good but we were already full from the "snack boxes". Maybe next time! I also want to try their gizzards. I haven't seen those anywhere since I was a kid! If you're in the area and looking for a tasty meal and a great deal, try Chester's Chicken!

It was so disappointing. I don't eat much fried/fast food anymore but this was pretty bad. We don't have a lot of great food in our rural area. A few decent places but not great. I definitely would not eat at this place. But if you still eat garbage like McDonald's you might think this is good.
