Danny's is a good enough place for chicken if you are in the area. The food is decent, the service is friendly and the place has a kind of fast-food type ambiance. Overall, this was a decent enough place for lunch. read more

Danny's Southern Cooking - Their menu and prices. - Chicken Shop Near Me - Robertsdale, Alabama

Danny's used to have really good chicken strips. They were thick and cooked perfect. Now you spend $19.60 and get these pencil sized strips, nothing but fried flour, and so overcooked, you cannot chew them. When I got home yesterday, I called the store. The young man who waited on me at the drive-through was very polite. He took down my name and said he would present it to the manager. I put them in the refrigerator to take back today just so management could see the order themselves. However, I'm not wasting my time or my gas to go back. They have lost a very good customer. read more

Danny's Southern Cooking - Supposed to chicken strips. - Chicken Shop Near Me - Robertsdale, Alabama

Food is hit or miss. Some days will be great then most days not so great. Fries are always under cooked. Red beans and rice is not what you expect and very bland. Make sure you speak very loud and clearly on what you want when going through their drive through. I asked for extra sauce and they charged and put extra fries in my bag. Also depending on the day they are either friendly or not so much. read more

Excellent chicken. Love the sides and e is perfect local restaurant for fried chicken. Beats all the chains

Not very good customer service, super rude to my grandfather at the drive thru speaker. Waited over 20 minutes to even pay at the drive thru window. First time coming here and super disappointed. read more

Every time I come into town I get this chicken. I haven't tried anything but the chicken and it is hands down the best!!! I buy about 10 breasts, freeze them and take em home. Top notch in the air fryer. This place is ridiculously good! read more

Went there last weekend and the food and service were top notch. We ordered fried chicken, rice dressing, macaroni and cheese, and fried. Food was hot, fresh and delicious! Very nice hard working people. Inside could use a little updating but that doesn't take away from the food and service. Go there and you won't be disappointed. read more

The food was good BUT they didn't get my order right and the Fried Chicken had a greasy taste to it. Green beans were good as well as the mashed potatoes. Macaroni and cheese was mushy and had very little flavor. Waitress was very nice and the price was reasonable. I'd give it a C plus at best. read more

Got the 8 piece family meal was really good. Had stopped going there a while back because the quality wasn't great. Was very happy the last two times I went. read more

This is usually great chicken. A visit today was extremely disappointing. The three piece snack I always get had gone up 30%. Then three small cold and funky pieces of chicken and a fowl biscuit. Screw Yall! read more

Good food but the facility is not the cleanest. Love their plenti pack, fries, and their fried mushrooms!

This fried chicken is like a cross between KFC original and KFC Krispy. I had dark meat, my husband had a breast. Nothing particularly exciting about it, but it's not bad fried chicken. They do have crinkle fried which I love...they cooked them fresh and hot for me. The menu needs a little zing to really be successful. If they put Popcorn salt on their fries and threw a fried apple fritter in your box (the size of a hush puppy with powdered sugar) they could probably break wide open and go wild! So easy to make since you're already frying everything and know how to do hush puppies! (I'd love to give you the recipe from "Catfish King" a well loved Birmingham institution from the 60's! They brought the crowds with their "All you can eat" chicken, fries and Apple Fritters! read more

Danny's was a childhood favorite of mine. I now live 1000 miles away and it's the first and last place I eat when I go back home. Plenti pack and fried mushrooms all day long for me. Mouth watering. Maybe it's the nostalgia for me, but nothing else has compared. I can taste the special sauce just thinking about it. I don't mind slow service for fresh food and a smile. I'd wait hours. Sure the building could use updating, but in a world full of the newest and greatest, I'll take this place as is any old day. Four stars only because they can't ship it across the country to me read more

I love to stop by Danny's on the way home for the chicken. It's hot, fresh, moist, and tasty. As good as any I have had in the area. I would give it an extra star if they had spicier option. read more

Love Danny's but this one lacks any attitude and or hospitality. The staff is in no rush and you will wait on your food. May be the last time I come in to this location. Not friendly and zero personality. Don't give bad reviews very often and don't like it when I have to but maybe the owners will take note.The food was great as always, staff not so much! read more

Love, love, love the food at Danny's! I've been eating at Danny's since childhood. Lately they seem to close earlier and earlier and even when trying to call in a to go order they take the phone off the hook. They have started leaving super early but have yet to update their hours on their website or anywhere else for that matter. The one time I did get someone on the phone, the young lady on the other end of the line answered the phone with " we're not taking to go orders" no greeting, nothing! Who in the hell answers the phone at a place of business where your job is serving the public like that? I am not someone who ever leaves reviews and I mean NEVER, but this has been going on for quite sometime now, so I'm hoping maybe just maybe someone will read these reviews and do something about it because Danny's is my fave! I will continue to be a Danny's patron regardless but if these few things I've mentioned were amended there would be no stopping Danny's in my humble opinion. Hope springs eternal! read more

One time I called several times and it stayed busy never would ring. Sat in drive through ordered and then sat there for almost an hour for the food. Nothing discounted... I live the food always good!! But the service is terrible. There is a blonde girl that works front counter that is terribly rude and looks at you like why are you here. She has messed my order up twice and I noticed when the phone is always busy she is the person up front like she takes it off the hook or something. I mentioned it to her and she just shrives her shoulders. She shouldn't be at the front desk to represent anything! read more

Yep. I went here today. The need for crunchy grease was calling and I grew up on Danny's way back in the day. So my order was easy: one thigh, slaw and rice. I took it down the road to snack at one of the parks. The box was hot and everything smelled fresh. Well, they gave me a leg instead of a thigh. The first bite - quit reading now - was raw and there were feather sticks (not sure of how to describe it - that shaft feathers are attached to) fried up in the crust. The slaw was hot - not cool at all fro a mayonnaise product and after the feather gill situation I was feeling ill. The rice was a bit undercooked but helped me settle the belly a bit. It may have been a one-time experience, but there is no way I will risk another bite here under the worse of circumstances. As I rack my brain I cannot think of another time I had feathers in my food. read more

The chicken strips are awesome! The service is horribly slow. Worse than it ever was.

Chicken plenty pack, chicken pieces were so tiny they were almost nothing but crust and hard and dry, not to mention cold. The biscuits were like yesterday's leftovers. Won't be going back. read more

So I need to revise my previous recommendation of this place. Sat at the window waiting for our delish fast Friday eve meal before the craziness of the weekend. I watched a woman touch food, with no gloves on...and her hands were in and out of her mouth!!! After watching for WAY too long, I disgustedly remarked from my car, "Don't let her touch food!! Her hands have been in her mouth!!" Apparently they had her wash her hands, and their apology was giving us extra fries. I was so grossed out that it went straight in the trash when I stopped for a new dinner at Willy T's, on the other end of town. Thought of calling the health department but after that, I'm pretty sure they'll show up on their own..... Never again. Just. Eww. read more

Terrible food and service. Locals used to love this place and now it's well hated. Don't waste your money or time! The chicken is never consistently decent and your order is likely to be wrong. So tired of eating here and will no longer. read more

Danny's is a pile of mediocrity at best. The chicken is bland and unexciting, the sides come in tiny little cups and the mashed potatoes taste a little......gross. The fries are usually dry and inedible. The only redeeming quality is that they have a good sauce that comes with the chicken. read more

We love Danny's! We can always count on good food when we order here. As long as you know before you go that they make your food when you order and you'll have to wait a few minutes. We will keep going back. read more

I visited this restaurant on Saturday Sept. 7th around 8pm,this is 3rd time for me,the 1st time it was awesome, the 2nd time average, this time,we waited in line for at least 45 minutes, because they gave our food mistakenly to the car waiting next to us, then got our orders completely wrong, and to make things even worse, we witnessed either 1 of the cooks or servers,outside at his SUV in back,smoking ,and just doing things in his truck, while wearing his rubber serving gloves! Went rt back in after about 15 minutes with same gloves on,and continued working as if he's sanitized! Had nothing but great things to say about this place at 1st, but now I think I'll pass,and try someone else. Cleanliness is next to Godliness!!! read more

As with all restaurants there are bad days and good days. I have never ever been dissatisfied with the food from Danny's. I love the chicken tenders. Always cut fresh on the spot, dipped and cooked as they are ordered. The onion rings are out of sight.. Oh and the fried okra is yummy. You would never guess it was not fresh, cut, battered and fried right then. Whom ever does the cooking always cooks the okra just the way I like it. The sauce is so gooooood, If I had the recipe I would make it at home but nope no recipe. Place needs updating but they have been around for over 40 yrs, so it shows.. A well loved local favorite read more

Really good chicken tenders. Fried sides are often soggy if you get it to go. The sauce is what brings me back. If I could get the recipe probly would get the chicken somewhere else. Very expensive for fast food. read more

Not sure were all the negative reviews are coming from. Frequently dine at Danny's Fried Chicken and never had a problem. Chicken is always excellent and order is always correct. Have been a customer for the last 4 years and will continue to return. (Robertsdale location) read more

Decent meal. Not sure where all of the bad reviews came from. My experience was much different. The staff was friendly, there were no surly teenage employees, my order was ready quickly and it tasted good. I've had better fried chicken, but this was fine for lunch. No complaints. read more
