    Patio

    Phone definitely did not eat first. Food was pretty good we tried almost all of their tenders, no complaints. Our server Madi was amazing, super sweet & attentive.

    Cole slaw

    Casual restaurant across from the riverfront in Quincy, Il. Most food offerings are fried, chicken being the main focus of many dishes. There are wraps and salads, appetizers. Bar offerings as well. Service friendly and prompt. Fun stop for casual dining.

    Chicken lips salad

    Everything about this place was great. Don't let the outside of the place fool you. There was 8 in our party. Everyone loved what they selected. Never heard of a chicken lip until I ate them here! Fantastic flavor. Service was great too!

    Stuffed Portobello

    We had the stuffed portobello and chicken lips with lip sauce and the Caribbean jerk. Both came with generous portions and absolutely delicious. We'll be back.

    Lips with Jackie D Sauce
    Kelsey S.

    I was so excited to try this place for months and finally got the opportunity to. I have been dying to try this lip sauce everyone has been raving about. It was not very busy when we were here. Our server was attentive. They have a few TVs and have a great location. The menu is kind of limited on chicken and it's not the kind that people usually gravitate to. They only have about 6 or 7 dips that will not appease to everyone's liking, like my boyfriend who does not like Buffalo nor BBQ. But he was willing to try. I noticed the drink menu only shown martinis. For a bar restaurant they didn't even advertise beer. Or different kinds of cocktails. I feel like martinis are more for a nightclub kind of place. Not for a chicken restaurant. I ordered the farmers gold martini and I was not impressed. It was not good. But I hear their other martinis are good. My boyfriend had the lips which he claimed were okay but the Jackie's d sauce which he said wasn't the best. I tried it, it was okay. I had the lip wrap. It was okay, but they didn't even fold the wrap fully together. It was good and I like that they use spinach wraps. I ordered fries which I did not receive. I feel like they should be giving us some type of side considering we're paying $10+ per plate. This was not the place for me.I feel like with this location and space they could be doing better and having more here.

    Smashburger Friday! Had a Smedley Bulter burger and it rocked! Just the right amount of meat, heat,…read moreand sweet! ...and of course it came with their legendary (delicious) fries! Will have to come back and try their other burger combinations!

    If you're in the mood for some solid comfort food, this is the place to go! If I lived closer, I…read morewould definitely visit on the regular. The shop is lowkey with a nice vibe catering to all ages. Folks order at the front, and you can see the cooks frying up chicken from scratch behind the counter. Shout out to whoever was on music duty, because the (mostly) rock tunes playing over the speakers were great! They specialize in fried chicken, and with so many great options it was hard to choose. We opted for the KT's Hot chicken sandwich, the 1848 2.0 shaved steak sandwich, and the Korean loaded fries. The sandwiches are massive and possibly a fork & knife situation. The chicken sandwich was crispy, definitely spicy, and loaded with sauce. By comparison, the steak sandwich paled a bit, as the meat was a bit tough and light on the yummy balsamic sauce. I really enjoyed the fries, which were crispy and very well seasoned. The loaded fries, however, were a show stopper and highly addictive. The ground beef on top was super tender with the most delicious kimchi aioli. The creamy coleslaw was made with a slightly sweet mayo and perfectly complemented the heat. I'm drooling thinking about these! We left full with leftovers for later. Definitely recommend stopping by if you're in the area!
