The chicken is always crispy on the outside and moist on the inside, just the way great fried chicken should be. All of our sides were good as well and included: Cole Slaw, Potato Salad, Mac and Cheese, and Fries.

I got a regular which was nice size compared to the competition. Service was just okay. I waited a few minutes as the only customer. Three sandwich techs working.

The trainer was helping the trainee. I still ended up with only 7 bucks in change, with one dollar as 4 quarters. ??? Anyway I was in my car before I realized the error. Forget it! Not going back in. They scored a nice 3 dollar tip that they didn't earn. One more note. This location shares with a smoothie king. SK has a drive thru.

No, I'm not talking about White Castle, but all restaurants, regardless of the distance, you have to travel to get that perfect feeling. Plus, I was so hungry I could have eaten twenty Del Tacos. I added the #5 avocado chicken burrito, my all-time favorite, and it was the correct size. Other locations always scaled back, especially a specific Taco John's; read my review of that restaurant. If you're looking for a Del Taco that can set things right, this is the location to hit. They'll offer suggestions and inquire if you have their app to save on your first order. Plus, the entire restaurant was spotless.

But nooooo I picked from her list the original orange chicken and fried rice. I got home and just as I expected...the kids meal portion of chicken was tough and Luke warm like it was sitting underneath a heat lamp. Wasted $10 on some non edible food. This place looks like it's brand new so I expected the service and food quality be top tier. I would appreciate my money back and I never have to try Panda Express again.

Some restaurants dabble in the deep fryer. Champy's Famous Fried Chicken treats it like a…read morecompetitive sport. Walking in, the place feels like it somehow drifted inland from a beach town. Casual, colorful, the kind of spot where you expect someone to walk in wearing flip flops and carrying a fishing pole. Comfortable vibe. Easy place to settle in and see what the fryer can do. First up were the fried green tomatoes. They came out looking like they'd just won a beauty pageant. Crispy outside, tender inside, cooked exactly right. Texture nailed. But flavor-wise they felt like they forgot their gym bag at home. Needed salt. Needed a little personality. A rare moment where the fryer did its job but the seasoning clocked out early. Then the headliner arrived. The fried chicken at Champy's Famous Fried Chicken has a reputation to protect, and thankfully it shows up ready to work. Crisp, flavorful crust. Juicy inside. The kind of chicken that crunches just enough to make everyone at the table look over and get jealous. "If the deep fryer had a Hall of Fame, Champy's chicken is getting a first-ballot vote." And then came the move that sealed the deal. A dip into Champy sauce. Suddenly the flavor level jumped another notch. Salty, tangy, just enough punch to make the crust shine even more. The sleeper hit though? The cole slaw. Creamy, balanced, and actually refreshing next to all the fried goodness. It's the quiet kid in class who ends up acing the exam. Easy to overlook, but absolutely worth ordering. Now for the tiny curveball. I happened to land there on karaoke night. And let's just say... the speakers believed they were performing at an arena concert. Loud enough that conversation required leaning halfway across the table and reading lips. On the flip side, the crowd was clearly having a blast. A few genuinely good singers, a few that were more... enthusiastic than talented, and plenty of people cheering them on. Honestly, respect to anyone with the courage to grab a microphone in a room full of strangers. So no star deductions for that. The people who showed up to sing were having the time of their lives. Bottom line, Champy's Famous Fried Chicken is a fun place with seriously good fried chicken. Order the bird, grab the slaw, lean into the fried side of the menu, and enjoy the show if karaoke happens to be on the schedule. Just maybe bring your singing voice... or your earplugs.

Omgggggg!!!!!!! The WAIT is terrible!!!!!…read more There can be one car ahead of me. And I have to sit in that line for almost 20 minutes. Why???? I've been to many Whataburgers. And have never had to wait that long! So disappointing!!

A Taste of South Texas, With Room to Improve…read more I have loved Whataburger for many years, dating back to nearly a decade of working in South Texas, where Whataburger is practically a way of life. Knowing that it originated in Corpus Christi, Texas, it has always held a special place for me. So when we heard that one was finally coming to the Chattanooga area, we were genuinely excited. When it first opened, we watched the long drive-through lines from afar and waited for things to settle down. Eventually, my wife (a native South Texan) and I visited, and later we returned with my mother. On both visits, the staff were consistently friendly, helpful, and well-staffed. The food, when fresh, tasted exactly as I remembered from Texas locations--hot, flavorful, and satisfying. In that regard, they are doing many things right. However, during our second visit with my mother, the fries were noticeably not fresh. Given the high volume and popularity, that was disappointing. My mother, in particular, was not impressed, and fresh fries are something you expect from a busy location. I also noticed some early signs of maintenance slipping. Although a staff member was attending to the dining area, the drink and napkin station was not well-kept, and the floor already looked unclean for a relatively new restaurant. These small details matter, especially when a restaurant is building its reputation. The interior seating area is smaller than what I am used to from Texas locations, but that is understandable. What matters more is consistency and cleanliness, and I hope management continues to prioritize both. Overall, I truly want this location to succeed. It brings a little piece of South Texas to our area, and when everything is fresh and running well, it is excellent. With better attention to freshness and upkeep, this could easily become one of Chattanooga's best fast-food options.
