    Food was bland, rice was weird and sticky, 90 degrees outside with no AC on. Customer service was ok but just not a good experience overall

    If you want chewy chicken and pasty rice and water down pico de gallo, this is the place for you.

    I didn't think the food was worth the price. The salsa tasted watered down. The beans weren't edible the chicken didn't have flavor.

    I've only been here once and ordered chicken tacos. They were served on a barely warm flour tortilla. It was sure a let down.

    The chicken here tastes amazing and their sides are very tasty, especially their potato salad.

    This place is happening. The music is good, the ambiance is cool, and the whole place feels really…read morelively. It's at Mountain Grove, which already has a fun atmosphere, but inside the restaurant it feels even more energetic. Pro tip: check their Facebook page before you go. They had a post where if you comment on it, you can get free food. They give you four different options and you can redeem each one on separate visits. That's such a great deal. My husband redeemed the large chicken sandwich (you can choose regular or large), and I went with the loaded fries, specifically the buffalo fries. Everything was really good. I personally liked the buffalo fries more than the sandwich, but my husband preferred the chicken sandwich, so it really comes down to taste. The portions are big too. The loaded fries could easily be shared between two or even three people, and the large sandwich is big enough to split between two people. Prices are reasonable, especially considering the portion sizes. Service was quick, friendly, and fun. They even told us we could come back three more times to redeem the other free items, which they didn't have to do, and that definitely went a long way. Five stars all around. Definitely worth stopping by if you're at Mountain Grove.

The chicken is seasoned to perfection and I have no complaints! This was my first time here and they hooked me up with some Ranch dipping sauce. Delicious!

Can't remember if there was or were benches outside either. Either way, I believe they do most of their business by take out. The folks here are as friendly as can be and the fried chicken is crispy, fresh, and delicious. It should be noted that this place is not fast food so allow time in your plans for pick up or a wait, etc. The place itself is pretty chill. I came in and didn't order in advance, but had no issues waiting for my order. I ordered the 6 piece 'snack' with chicken tenders which came with fries and a roll. I really enjoyed my meal when I got home. I hope to come back soon and order one of the 4 or 2 piece chicken meals or even some of the wings. There was enough parking outside, but the lot accommodates a few businesses so it can get tight.

    One beautiful sunny afternoon in Palm Springs, my friend and I wanted to give this place a try…read moresince we heard so many good things about it. We both ordered their Fried Chicken sandwich with French Fries with both ketchup and Ranch dressing on the side. I ordered their house salad which came with lettuce, tomato, shaved Mozzarella cheese, cucumber, asked for light onions and got light onions. Also came with croutons. Portions were very reasonably priced. $20 for each plate. Food was very delicious, hot and full of flavor. We didn't get anything to drink. It has a great patio, bar, and indoor seating. We got great service from few of their employees who were nice, kind, helpful and knowledgeable. They even told us the plates were hot before setting them down on the table. Not all servers warn you! They sure earned their tip. The menu is pretty vast and at first, we wanted to order everything from the menu. That's how it is when you are so HUNGRY! One can only eat so much.. Great restaurant, few parking spaces, we parked outside. Got lucky to find parking in front of the restaurant. Has 2 restrooms, didn't use them. Place was a very cozy, cute restaurant. Also very clean. Highly recommend this place. Had a cute decor here and there. Was very lovely. I am so glad that we tried this place out. Thank you all very much!!
