    Jumbo sauce on the chicken
    Keith B.

    The chicken is pretty good... and the waffles are excellent. I got a fruit fountain drink, which was OK too. The service was fast and courteous, but the vibe was brightly lit and strictly fast food. We dined there between 11pm and midnight. By then, there were a few straw wrappers, old receipts, and the like strewn about the floor and tables. The food was good and fairly priced.

    Lamb over rice this place is amazing honestly.

    This place is really good to come by and get food. This is lamb over rice with white sauce and hot sauce.

    I can't believe I haven't done a review here. A very well established Chicken and Waffle spot in the Cheverly/Bladensburg area. Awesome customer service, well maintained facilities, fair prices (and they run a lot of specials). Quality food with flavor. The Chicken wings are crispy and juicy. The Waffle is huge and fluffy. Also the menu is not limited to chicken waffles, they have subs, buffalo wing, fajita platters and more. All the food here is top tier. If you haven't stopped here, I don't know what your waiting on lol ;)

    This was our 1st time trying this place although we drove by it for years because we shop at the Walmart across the street. LoL! Okay, here's my take on this place. My husband and I ordered a few items to try because they had a huge menu. He ordered Chicken and Waffles and I ordered the Chicken Sandwich and French Fries. It wasn't until later that we both spotted the desserts and he had me return to the counter to get a dessert for each of us. I ordered the banana pudding for myself. He had the honey bun cake and our daughter had the oreo cake. The chicken sandwich is really good. It's crispy, the pickles are tangy, and it all goes well with the sauce and potato bun. The fries were fries. The banana pudding was surprisingly good although there wasn't a single slice of fresh banana in it. It was mainly banana cream pudding and soft vanilla wafers. My husband gave me a bite of his cake later that night. The honey bun cake has a lot of cinnamon flavor. It is overpowering. I also took a bite of the oreo cake my daughter had so that I could give an honest review. She enjoyed it because she is a child and kids love chocolate cake especially with oreo cookies. As an adult, to me that cake was nasty. The texture was chewy rather than moist and melt in your mouth. The chocolate didn't taste right either. It left a bit of an aftertaste. The establishment itself is a bit small. There are only a couple of tables to sit down to wait for your food. The older gentleman that served us was very kind. The younger gentleman came out later and mainly stayed on his phone.

    Combination platter over rice. Chicken and lamb for protein with a side salad.

    Ordered Uber eats and was pleasantly surprised. My combo platter over rice with lamb and chicken was absolutely awesome!!

    The hard about going to takeout places like Legends is to know what type of 4 or 5 stars to expect. When looking at the reviews online, I didn't expect it to give me takeout vibes. When I got there I was like, ohhhhh okay this place is like your "I'm hungry after church don't feel like cooking" takeout Chicken and Waffles. The chicken was good... It was seasoned well... But it would've been better if it was like carryout fried chicken. This chicken was that like super battered fried chicken. It was good but I wouldn't really go out my way to get it. Now the waffle was really good! Waffles seem simple but aren't really. These waffles were good! I would prefer to use my own syrup, not that Smucker's brand pancake syrup they give you. My parents loved the fried fish but no one really cared for the fried fish to be in a sub. We're typical like down south fish fry you eat the fish with some white bread and hot sauce. So, now we know. So, I'm going to stick with 4 stars because it was good, but not impressive. It's a good spot if it's in your neighborhood and you want a quick meal or to order a bunch of chicken for your church group dinner. I think the 4 stars would go up to 5 if the chickens was cooked differently and if they didn't use the same batter for the chicken and the fish. I don't care for places that batter all the fried food the same way. And they should have some solid Crystals hot sauce or something. I can't stand those carryout super red hot sauce packets that don't taste like hot sauce.

    Small but really clean restaurant with variety of different selections...you can even mixed 'n match your orders. The staff are really accomodating and friendly. Would definitely recommend. The chicken and fries were really good. I actually have had it before over a friend's house this was my first time actually visiting the location.

    The best steak and cheese and chicken wings ever. I try to go at least 3 times a month. My preferred location is on Annapolis Road.

    Too slow of service. Everyone in front of me got their food first and I had a small order. Mind you, the chicken was already cooked

    So here's what happened...I was researching fried chicken spots, I found one, I went to the spot, I…read moreordered their food, I got the food, I was skeptical, I ate it, and it exceeded my expectations!! Good people when I tell you that the Fried chicken at this establishment is delectable...STAMP THAT!! On my initial review of this place, @janess_backstage_kitchen , I took a bite out of the Halal chicken, and waffle, (pictured-$12) and I gave it the Big Schlim grade of DELICIOUS!! So I finished the review, and started pushing. While pushing, I kept dipping into the container with the chicken in it, taking bites. I did this so much so, that I got viciously honked at while stopped at a green light. I crushed that meal before I arrived at my next destination...and I wasn't even hungry!! That's some good a** chicken my good folks...please believe me...it's officially STAMPED!! So this spot is a licensed, black owned, startup establishment that I decided to give some go too...I'm super happy that I did. With curbside service only, Janess's has a very simple menu that includes shrimp and grits (pictured $12), Belgian Waffles, Halal fried chicken, hand cut Zentachi fries, and a house made mumbo sauce chicken combo that comes with a Belgian waffle. That's it. For now!! I also ordered their shrimp and grits (pictured-$12), that came in a container with enough room to feed 3. It smelled good, but aesthetically it didn't look that great. I took a bite and seemed it DECENT. But once again, I pulled off and I kept dipping!! So this one is officially DELICIOUS!! The more, and more i dipped into these meals, the better they got!! Customer service was excellent (these are some truly kind hearted folks good people), and online ordering is easy. Now In order to perfect your meal, they take their time. So add 30 mins to your pick up time. Online ordering was simple, and parking was available. Good people...trust me on this one...get the chicken, be patient, and enjoy. That's it. #bigschlimsreviews #blackowned #halalfriedchicken #shrimpandgrits #belgianwaffles #housemademumbo #deliciousness #goodeats #stamp #tryit #startup #thatsit
