This is my favorite place for fast food chicken in Charlottesville Va, this location specifically…read more The people who work here are always so nice, welcoming, and always ask about my day. There was one time when my boyfriend and I ordered inside and there was an odd customer bothering us that we didn't know, the manager immediately saw what was happening and asked him to step away, apologized, and threw in a free dessert for what happened. The people here care, and the food tastes like home. I have leftovers from this place at least once a week it seems, and don't even get me started on the house-made ranch, AMAZING!

First timer and was neither impressed nor disappointed…read more I ordered by drive thru as I was in a rush. I wasn't familiar with the menu so I ordered a basic 6 piece chicken nugget/tender box with fries and a biscuit. The chicken was ok. It seemed overcooked. The fries were surprisingly fresh. The biscuit still lags behind Popeyes or McDonald's - gold standards for tasty but extremely unhealthy biscuits. Overall a meh fast food stop. I didn't get sick so that's a plus.

Hands down, the best I've ever had. Everything was fresh, seasoned perfectly, and had that homemade touch that you just don't get everywhere. I told the owner right then and there I'd leave a review because the service was just as good as the food. We ended up talking for close to an hour -- he was genuinely kind, super humble, and clearly cares about both the food he makes and the people who walk through his door. It felt less like a restaurant visit and more like catching up with an old friend. If you're ever in the area, do yourself a favor and stop by. This place is the real deal -- good people, great food, and an experience worth sharing.

Two stars are for the buffet and an extra star is for the employees. We were curious about the…read morebuffet. The promotional picture on the wall makes all of the items look incredible. If those food items went missing and you needed to give a photo to the police, don't use the promotional poster. The items don't look the same. The buffet has fried chicken, biscuits, gravy, mashed potatoes, green beans, baked beans, potato salad, cottage cheese, apple sauce, corn and other items. If you are expecting those potato wedges, you will be disappointed. The biscuits are great if you get them fresh. Sometimes, they will have been sitting out a while. It is better visiting during peak times when the food is restocked and changed more frequently. The chicken is just average. You would have better quality fried chicken if you were ordering from the menu. Now that we have tried the buffet, once is enough. If you work in the area and you wanted a large meal and drink, $8.99 is a good deal. If you want the quality items shown on the promotional picture, look for another restaurant. The employees were friendly. When I asked for plain corn (as pictured in the poster, but not on the buffet), the manager gave me a small container. The corn on the buffet had chicken in it. The restrooms were clean. The parking area was large.

I stopped and purchased an egg and sausage biscuit, at least that is how it was labeled. I dropped…read moreit on the cement curb on the way out. It cracked the curb. That should have been a good reason not to bite it, but I was hungry and prepared to suffer. I did. I'm assuming the yellow part was the egg since it was yellow. But it was plastic, not egg. It was a cruel trick. But I was hungry, so I ate the sausage part along with the bottom part of the of what I think they would identify as the biscuit. But it crumbled so badly, I had to scoop it together to get it in my mouth. Kinda like eating a handful of nuts. But I was hungry. I did feel pretty tough afterward though, like I was a real man who could eat anything - maybe even roadkill. It was an achievement to make it half way through this biscuit. I'm giving them an extra star for making me feel accomplished. I don't think I will go back to this place, even if I am really hungry, or looking for something mean to throw at someone.
