    Kiki's fries with chicken
    Jennifer S.

    This Kiki's location is just down the street from my doctor's office, so, I've been wanting to try them out for a long time. Thankfully, I recently got the chance. For starters, the customer service was fantastic. The girl who helped me was peppy and perky. I noticed her working hard, fervently wiping things down as I was waiting for my food. I meant to order Kiki's tots with chicken, but accidentally ordered fries instead. It was still pretty good, although I definitely would have preferred the tots. In my opinion, the fries weren't special, but they were good, and they were absolutely loaded with chicken. My to go box definitely seemed to have more chicken in it than fries. It's all about the chicken. There aren't many items on the menu, but, it doesn't matter, because everyone comes for the chicken, anyway. The taste, texture, temperature, breading, etc. are all just perfect. I ordered the medium size box, which was way too much for me. I ended up getting three meals out of it, although, of course, it wasn't as good reheated as it was fresh. [[HIGHLIGHT]]As I filled up my drink, I noticed that the tables and floors were definitely on the dirtier side. Everything just seemed kind of greasy, but, I guess maybe that's to be expected when the entire menu is fried.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, I love Kiki's. It's one of those local places that you just have to try at least once, and then have to go back to at least every once in a while.

    Who doesn't love deep fried chicken wings? Tonight we ordered pick up from the J st location. Our usuals: 2 orders of 20 Chicken wings with 3 sides - Macaroni salad & beans & fries -Kiki's Fries 10/10 [[HIGHLIGHT]]Place is always a vibe[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. Check them out if you haven't already.

    This place is one of my favorite late-night bites. I rarely get to go since I don't live in the area anymore. I always end up getting the Kiki fries each time I visit. The chicken with the cheese and the sauce has so much flavor. It's easily the crowd favorite on the menu. The service is usually fast & efficient.

    Quiet Sunday

    I had to pick up a quick dinner for my boys. Found this Kiki's on my route home located on J St. between 19th & 20th. We had Kiki's many times. Usually the Elk Grove location or food trucks. My first time at this location. It was a quiet Sunday night. Everyone is probably at home or at a bar watching the superbowl. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I kind of mixed up on the orders and she noticed that I wanted to add the chicken to the Kiki's tater tots. The orders were ready within 10 minutes. I'll have to remember to come to this location. It's somewhat more convenient than the EG location. My boys were happy and full. They enjoyed the Kiki's Tater Tots with Chicken and BBQ sauce.

    4 Wings Combo with Straight Cut Fries

    Neighborhood chicken shack serving chicken wings, chicken tenders, chicken sandwiches and more. Food: Fried chicken sandwich - 5/5 - the works plus side sauces Grilled chicken sandwich - 3/5 - definitely not as tasty as the breaded fried version Wings (bone-in & boneless) - 5/5 - can't go wrong with the classics Tenders - 4.5/5 - Despite being call tenders not all the pieces of tenders are tender but that's partly about getting fresh cuts Kiki's loaded fries/tots - 3.5/5 - the meat to fries portion is off; also the portion size gets really filling Regular straight cut fries Shoestring fries Tater tots Sauces & dips - nice variety of sauces and dips Ambience: Fast food/fast casual dining space Service: Fast and friendly

    Their food Absolutely delicious. I recommend this place to anybody? Great food great customer service

    Kikis Fries (with Chicken)
    Alison G.

    I stopped by this Kiki's location for the first time today for lunch. I was really craving the Kiki's fries!! This Kiki's is located in Midtown off of 19th Street and J. It has typical parking like Midtown, with there's curbside parking (which there were none available when I arrived). There's a very small parking lot in the back that is shared with the Starbucks right next door. The woman that helped me up the register was very sweet and very patient taking my order. I ordered six boneless wings, half with honey barbecue sauce, the other half with their signaturesKiki sauce( sweet and spicy!). I alsoordered the Kiki fries and a soda. I was so excited to eat my meal especially the fries. I took my meal to go enjoy at home. The boneless chicken was kind of tough to chew into and hard. I didn't get to finish it all...I took a few bites and threw it away. But, the Kiki fries were on point!! I would have given this location five stars if the chicken wasn't so hard to eat. But, definitely would stop by again for the friendly service when I'm in the area. Thank you Kiki's!!

    3 PC chicken tender combo
    Brian G.

    I've heard a lot of praise for Kiki's so I was excited to try it, but I was a bit disappointed. I got takeout and it smelled fantastic in the box. The chicken strips were perfectly crispy on the outside, but the meat was dry and tough. So it wasn't that enjoyable, even though their sauces (kiki sauce and bold BBQ) tasted fantastic. Garlic fries were bland and had no salt, not enough garlic.

    Two fresh tenders & fries galore (with 5 sauces I ordered)
    Tina D.

    I fully expected Kiki's to be a place that is only good for late night food after libations. Boy, was I wrong. I've now ordered from this location twice for delivery in the last month, both times at about 8:30 pm & have been pleasantly surprised. The chicken tenders are crispy as are the fries and they always get my crazy order of 6 different sauces into the bag. If you order other "fast" food on the grid you know this isn't normal & you will not get your sauce. I'm a Kiki's fan.

    Casaundra J.

    Was told to try this place out if we came to Sacramento. And it did not disappoint! The tenders were extra juicy and their Kiki's sauce was the bomb! I would recommend getting it on top of the chicken. The fries were fresh and went great with their ranch. Definitely want to go back and try the Kiki fries and try their wings with the same sauce on it next time. Service was fast as well we didn't wait long and they brought the food to our table.

    3x3 Tender Wing Combo with Shoestring fries.
    Jonathan U.

    Stopped this place for a snack after checking out the Farmer's Market. Got a 3 Tender (Lemon Pepper) and a 3 Wing (Kiki's Sauce) Combo with shoestring fries to share. The lemon pepper was amazing and the Kiki's sauce was decent (sweet chili variant). Cashier was really nice.

    Price range: low and affordable for midtown. To consider: scarce parking spots if you're trying to dine in. Gets surprisingly busy at night. Wait time: -10 minutes at any given moment. Food & drinks details: the food is AMAZING (even more so after a long night of partying). They don't serve alcohol. Shoutout(s): to the short wait time! The short wait is a lifesaver. If you're trying to sober up a bit, this place has all that greasy chicken to even out your system. Location review: moot the best spot to drive to. If you're looking for a chicken place and you're not super close by I would go somewhere else, so you're not stressing about parking. Service: it's amazing. They are always chill. The menu is usually tricky for me (since I'm visual) but the employees are always happy to help. Employees some times bring me my food without warning. That's always a kind gesture. Expectations: I did not expect the food to be this good! I also did not expect it the food to be served as quickly as it did with all the guests inside. Amazing work! Improvements: none other than to put a few logos lower to the windows, so drivers and pedestrians can spot the business better. People don't look up too much these days, so maybe a few promotional banners at eye level would be ok. Last words:

    Menu
    Luv H.

    I order a small Kiki fries without chicken. but I wish they would put more sauce that look more in their adverise picture. So maybe definitely ask for extra cheese and sauce. (Not sure if they charge extra for cheese) It's a cool kind of sma joint to hangout and grab a bite. It's kind get very pack during rush hour lunch.

    First time visiting Mendocino Farms, second time enjoying their food from the Midtown location…read more(which was brought into a lunch meeting a while back). What a bright, fun, airy space in the Ice Blocks! This place was hopping early in the lunchtime hour. Seemed like a mix between eat-in, to-go and pick-up orders. Fast, friendly service and great food. What more can you ask for? I enjoyed their Baja Green Goddess salad with Impossible chorizo (even though I eat meat) and picked up a vegan banh mi and seasonal BLT for some friends. All were tasty and nicely packed to-go. I look forward to returning to try more things and their different locations.

    Well designed, rustic yet modern -- really nice and great light. Patio is lovely with a mix of…read morehigh tops, bench seating, and little tables. Inside, also an eclectic mix of seating with vaulted ceilings, cool/rustic lighting -- very much of a cool warehouse feel. I like. The counter order process is a little messy. First, the menu boards...it's a lot of delicious varieties that's hard to remember the exact names to order once you step up to the cashier. But the staff is wonderful, happy service people...that help you out to correct and clarify. My favorites: ============ * Impossible Taco Salad [5.0 stars] -- my favorite salad. * Mama Chen's Chinese Chicken Salad [5.0 stars] -- omg, the chicken. * Avocado & Quinoa Superfood Ensalada w/Chicken [4.5 stars] * Saved Drake Farm's Salad w/chicken [4.5 stars] Seasonal favorites: ================ * Seasonal: Tuna on wheat (they are huge) [5.0 stars] * Seasonal "The 8 Hour" Smoked BBQ Pulled Pork sandwich [4.0 stars]: Pork was tender, but way too sweet and on grilled panini? Hardly. It was a 6" roll cut in half, and barely toasted or grilled. Plus, it doesn't come with chips, c'mon! That's a necessity in my book! Also: ==== * The Farm Club Sandwich [4.5 stars] * Habanero potato chips by Mama Zuma's...excellent. * Love the soda machine. You won't find Poopsi or Poke here, only Puck's - an all natural, no artificial colors or preservatives (you'll have to bring it from the outside if you want it!). Recommend: The Black Cherry. One peeve: ========== No salt shakers. If you ask, they have to go to the back and bring out a little paper cup worth. Almost making up for it are really nice pepper grinders brought to your table upon request. Location specific: Midtown Sac (R Street) ================================== A super cool newish structure in the new Downtown Sac area

They close at 10pm, but they start locking up all the chairs outside at 8pm even though the sun sets at 8:30 and it doesn't get dark until nearly 9pm in the summer. Why close the patio 2 hours before the restaurant closes? Also, the tables outside are always filthy, covered in bits of other people's meals. It appears that they never clean them. Also, because it's like a factory inside, there's virtually no customer service (recently, they ran out of forks and, once I could get someone's attention, the woman told me they were out. When I asked how I was supposed to eat the salad I just ordered, she begrudgingly went find the manager who immediately produced two forks). They're all so busy making the bowls that it's hard to get their attention for questions about anything. It's clearly designed to be automated to save money, but there's no personal touch. The food is good, but at least at this location, the staff ignores eye contact in virtually all our visits here.

The fries were actually pretty good, an above average standard French fry with salt. The burger however was phenomenal. There was an amazing crust on the outside reminiscent of a backyard bbq. There was ample bacon, lettuce, cheese and sauce to make it a balanced bite. The bun was high end brioche style, they really went all out on quality of ingredients. A standard burger build but done perfectly! Beer was cold, food was great and the ambiance is a perfect local bar. Great spot to go if you don't mind hunting for a parking space.
