We ordered the…read morethree piece chicken special, a chicken breast with water, a two piece chicken special and another separate chicken breast with a salad. Service quick, Chicken excellent (crispy yet moist), Crinkle fries were good and a great cole slaw (Sweet, similar to KFC but different). Always a great experience if you get there before the crowd. Definitely one of the top three chicken places in the Cola and surrounding areas! Probably #1 or #2 in most peoples polls.

I'm not sure what sparked the craving, but as I passed through Columbia at lunchtime, fried chicken…read moresuddenly seemed like the only answer. I asked Yelp for the highest‑rated spot and ended up here. The place was bustling, with most of the parking lot full, yet the ordering process moved quickly. By the time I returned from the restroom, my number was already being called. I had ordered a three‑piece meal with double cole slaw in place of fries and a sweet tea. Settling in at a table, I dug in. The cole slaw leaned too far on the sweet side for my taste, though the texture was crisp and fresh. I skipped the dinner roll and the tea, focusing instead on the chicken. It was thoroughly cooked, meaty, and satisfying. Not especially spicy or bold in flavor, but solidly good. This isn't a fancy establishment. The tables and floor may not be spotless, but the food delivers. Best fried chicken I've ever had? No. Still, it was very good, and worth the stop.

The food looks buffet style but it's not and it's all hot. There's certain dishes that are only there on certain days so I got chicken, corn on the cob, and green beans. All of it was good. The only thing it's lacking is a place to sit and eat. This is more of a takeout spot. Not a big deal.... If I'm back that way I will hit them up.

I love that most things are roasted and full of flavor without being salty. The empanadas were full of chicken and my chicken bowl was well prepared.

Chester's found in lot of truck stops gas stations places like that the Loves ones are ran by loves same with Pilot they're not franchise separately. I came in I really wanted some fried chicken livers but they were out they got cleaned out from the lunch crowd would be about an hour till they had more made. there wasn't even enough for a whole order of potato wedges they would be about another half hour till they were made I was hungry and had to go. the reason for such a long duration staffing help they only have one person working so she not only has to ring up the sales but also has to turn around and return and do all the cooking meaning pull it bread it fry it. so I went with the four chicken strips that they said they just gotten done mashed potatoes and came with the biscuit. Chesters to me are hit and miss touch and go and a crap shoot you never know if you're going to get a decent one with employees that know what they're doing and take pride especially at loves or if it's going to suck. I should have went more with the more recent reviews on Google. they definitely reflect my experience today. Sit down I open up my box and the mashed potatoes were a total let down they were not cooked like mashed potatoes they were gluey. I didn't want any of the gravy because it looked old. for some fresh chicken tenders they were Fair not quite average they were edible but it didn't seem like they were cooked properly like some other chesters can with nice crispy outside. the biscuit seemed like it was getting old too. I also bought a chicken leg cuz I was pretty hungry when I came in that was definitely pretty much at the end of its cycle too. I felt like I didn't get any value for my money but I'm not one to really complain that wasn't going to pitch a fit but it is what it is it wasn't hot but it was warm and that's usually how a lot of Chesters are unfortunately. and why for the most part I don't just wake up saying oh I can't wait to have chesters today tomorrow like what's around now I guess it'll be Chester's over McDonald's or Subway if I've had too much.

Our order was ready promptly and looked delicious. I had the number 4, which was a chicken slider and my side was crispy fries. They offered 5 heat levels, I had the number 2. They have the reaper which you have to sign a waiver. Let me just say the chicken slider and fries were delicious. Daves uses high quality chicken and you can tell by the taste.

This place has me excited when it comes to the "Dave's Not Chicken" menu. I ordered Cauli Dave's #3, which is 1 Cauli Tender & 1 Cauli Slider W/ Fries. This is so delicious! Everything has that perfect crispy and a taste that melts in your mouth. The sauce and honey make it just that much better. An amazing combination. My husband ordered the Saucy Bites W/Fries. He stated the meal was crispy and fulfilling. We also ordered the Small Cauliflower Top Loaded Fries. This was another hit for me! It comes with a cheese sauce, pickles and kale slaw topped with cauli bites and a drizzle of Dave's sauce. It tastes so good! If you have never eaten here or tried the cauli menu, please try it. I highly recommend it. As always great service and clean restaurant.

I get 15-20 wings at any other wing place and crush them all with ease...but not here. Nah, at Carolina Wings, they give you these wings that make you think "if this is the wing, how big was this chicken!?" And the cook on them? Impeccable. Amazing. Perfect. My wife got a burger and she said it was one of the best burgers she's ever had. Talked about it for 2 days. I had a to-go order so I was in and out quickly. However, the service I received was top tier. The setting of the restaurant looked to be your typical sports bar wing place as they had TVs everywhere playing sports channels. Overall, I was very impressed and look forward to future visits!
