    What your looking at here is some pretty freaking amazing fried chicken!!! This was our first time in Springfield Ohio and our first (but not last) visit to Lee's. We just happened upon this hidden gem and decided to give it a try! Folks, it tastes as good as it looks! Much better than any KFC we have ever had and we highly recommend it! Follow us in YouTube under "Blue Line RV Adventures" as we travel America giving reviews and advice during our travels!

    When you are craving fried chicken late in the evening and cruising old 70 near Springfield Ohio give lee's a try. The cheapest chicken joint East of the Mississippi. Nothing fancy that's for sure! But the biscuits are warm and tender' the chicken crispy and the gizzards and liver well seasoned. For eleven dollars and change for two you can't go wrong. In and out in a heart beat and back on the road. Give it try....bathrooms are clean and the staff are pleasant...what do you have to lose?

    I eat at Lee's Famous Recipie every year when I visit Springfield OH. There are 3 in town. I think the one on S Limestone is best. I found the employees would talk to me when I talked to them. My order was out quickly. My gizzards were the best I've had in a while. Even better than the Home Ave location. My coleslaw was almost as good as KFC. The one thing I didnt particularly care for was the menu item they called barbeque baked beans. Had they been called pork n beans, I'd have no problem. Nut in my opinion they were neither barbeque or baked. Unless you count the trace of barbeque sauce.. Maybe they did bake them a min or two. At any rate they were not what I expected. I now know one item NEVER to order again.. The gizzards were cooked to perfection. They were battered just right. They were as tender as a gizzard could be. NOT tough as they are in lots of places There gizzard and coleslaw portions were good There wasn't as generous portion on the beans. Over all a pleasant dinning experience I'd reccomend them to anyone that appreciates good gizzards.

    The restaurant was clean and decorated nicely! The service and food could use a little more!…read moreService was like we were disturbing their free time, but they were still courteous. The food was just warm, not hot, but not cold either! Food tasted good , and I would give them another chance.

We were met with pleasant and helpful staff. Immediately when they heard we had never been there before they gave my granddaughter and I different samples of each kind of chicken ( blackened, spicy & bourbon)and their spicy steak fries. I could've just stood there and tried everything. It was so good! We settled on a meal each mine was bourbon chicken with mixed vegetables on the side and the spicy steak fries. I am not sure which chicken my granddaughter got. It was either bourbon or blackened, but it was also good. The large meal was $13 each & came with two sides & the main entrée. It is enough to feed at least three people. Generous portions for sure! Very filling and the flavor was just really great. I'm sure we'll be back again soon! I haven't been eating out as much because the food at a lot of fast food places is not very good but this was definitely good cooking!

    Wife and I went to Krazy Taco 937 tonight with already high hopes because of its great online…read morereviews. To say we were not disappointed is an understatement; we were stunned at how enjoyable the experience was. Everything.. EVERYTHING about this place is wonderful. Service was very attentive, friendly and helpful (and our waitress had only been working there 1 month.) The overall ambiance was stimulating and captivating. Stimulating because the music Powerhouse 60s hits from Ray Charles, Tom Jones, the Beatles and more was a *perfect* choice to enjoy yet not disrupt quiet conversation. Stimulating because the decor was so unique and interesting. And because just the vibe of everyone in there really enjoying themselves was palpable. What about the food you say? Every ingredient of all 4 different taco choices we made was wonderful; fresh, tasty and well prepared and presented. It's not very close to us but we are already excitedly figuring out when we can get back there - and I'm confident we are going to become regulars. It's a small place so going at peak meal hours might risk waiting. They have about 10 tables as well as another 8 or 10 stools at the bar. We did not drink so cannot review that aspect. We were told the place had come under new management in the last few months. As well as that place seemed to be functioning, we would never have guessed that. PS I didn't know until we ordered that they were giving free tacos to veterans, so that's a really cool mark on their patriotism and sense of community. PS 2 Small warning: The bench seats at the east (entrance) wall cut off circulation in my legs.

Got a seat at the bar and ordered a NA mojito and it was delicious, and also at only $5 I appreciated the price- sometimes NA drinks are as much as the full alcohol kind. Great attentive service and friendly chats with the employees. I went with the nachos which were SOOO good. Nachos are one of mh favorite foods, so I know good nachos- especially loved the pickled onions and that there were tons of toppings. My friend got two tacos with beef- can't remember the exact kinds but he enjoyed them. Such a great spot and will be back.

When I got out there was the smell of weed and a kid in a popeyes uniform stuck his head out with his pipe and waving at people in the drive thru. He wasn't even hiding it.

I confess, I also fell victim to the recent "hullaballoooo" over Popeye's chicken sandwich, and decided to see what all the fuss was about. Actually, it's pretty good, but the wait here is terrible. I don't really think it's the fault of this particular location, they were doing the best they could, but I think they have a pretty slow order "prep" process. Like most fast food places, they also seem to attend first to their drive-thru customers, no matter how long the folks in the dining room have been waiting. I don't know if they prepare very small batches of chicken at a time, if they were missing some people, or the success of the chicken sandwich is just more than they can handle, but you CAN'T come here if you're in a rush. I waited nearly 20 minutes at 7pm on a weeknight... The sandwich was pretty good, order was correct, the cashier was apologetic, but unless I really have time to KILL, I probably won't be back any time soon. BUT, generally speaking, this is NOT a terrible choice for a LEISURELY bite to eat on the S. Limestone strip...
