    Deliciousness!  The chicken slider and fries were great!
    Brian K.

    I stopped into Nash & Tender for lunch after reading some positive reviews. Well the reviewers weren't wrong, because the food and service were great. I ordered a #3 combo and a side of ranch for $17.50 before tip and tax. It came with a large slider, another chicken breast on toast, a large serving of crinckle cut fries, and a drink. It was a lot of food and I had leftovers, so I was happy with the size of the portions. The slider had a big, thick, piece of fried chicken breast on it. It was a little spicey, topped with pickles, sauce, cole slaw and served on a nice brioche bun. It was one of the better chicken sandwiches I've had in a while and very satisfying. The chicken breast on toast, was silimar and just as satisfying. The fries were hot, chispy, and lightly seasoned. I enjoyed every one as I dunked them in sauce and munched them down. The staff was nice, and prepared my food quickly. The dining room was basic, but functional, and the drinks were self-serve. I'm happy to give them 5 stars. The food was really good.

    Hot Chicken Slider #1
    Chanarith N.

    Wait time was around 10-15 minutes, which wasn't bad. The employees seemed tired and uninterested though very monotone, no energy, and the chef in the back looked irritated every time someone ordered. And it wasn't even busy, it was just me my wife, and a few other people in line. We got the #1 combo (2 chicken strip sliders + fries) and added a mac and cheese for an extra $5. That part alone already felt pricey. The drink came with the combo, but it was served in a thin plastic cup that literally looked like something you could buy at Walmart. I know the food industry always upcharges drinks, but between the extra charge for the mac and cheese and the cheap cup presentation, it just didn't feel like we were getting our money's worth. First bite of the slider was pretty disappointing. I'd rate the sandwich itself a 2/5. The bun was soft but not toasted, the coleslaw had no flavor and tasted old, and the sauce was just drenched all over the bread. Also only one small chicken strip on the slider for the price they charge, that's not a good value. Fries were actually decent, but honestly they tasted like the frozen Walmart fries you just air fry at home. Mac & cheese was okay but had almost no seasoning, just tasted like melted cheese. The chicken tender wasn't crispy at all. Overall the food looked better than it tasted. I personally wouldn't come back. I'd rather go to Angry Chicken for better flavor and better value.

    Great place to get hot chicken. Quick and friendly service. Clean and open seating. Several people got goo to go while I was there eating in person. My favorite part is they use crinkle cut fries which were crisp and delicious. $12 for lunch, the prices are good especially these days. Definitely a great lunch option when nearby.

    Hair in my fries and Mac n cheese

    horrible first time eating Nash and there was a long hair in my food do NOT eat from here shut this place down and when I went in no staff were wearing head caps and they were rude with attitude very disgusting. Would not recommend

    Pretty mid chicken. It was dry and I had to heavily rely on the sauce, which also wasn't that good. The servers were nice but I'm not sure why I tipped when I ordered because I got my own water, napkins, and everything else during my visit. The ambiance is relatively clean, but the lighting seemed kinda low. I'm not sure if it was just because it was rainy out, but it seemed like the lighting east sufficient, which gave a weird vibe.

    Pros: The food is awesome!!! Good flavor and the portions are fair. At the Lodi location, the service is always good and always seems to be quiet, not a whole lot noise which makes for a relaxed ambiance. Cons: Prices and parking. I'm not a fan of their prices, I mean for chicken tenders??? The parking is also bad as I had to park almost 2 blocks away, this seems to be a thing with this business as the Stockton location is even worse, I parked over 3 blocks away!

    Got #4 meal n Nash + Tender Fries

    The service was good.That I will recommend. I had such high hopes for this place since my co workers can't stop talking about it, yeah i know better now.The food nope I'm good. On the Nash and tender fries, I asked for the mac & cheese on the side the coleslaw on the side and pickles on the side that they did that was perfectly fine. Did this on purpose so I could taste the Mac and coleslaw well they had NO FLAVOR bland, coming home and having to add seasonings to it was not ok, sad when KFC has more flavor All and all WAY WAY over priced definitely will not be returning.

    Nash Tender Fries

    The establishment is clean however we got the tender fries and the nashirito. I was a little disappointed that I had to request ranch which I thought came with a side of ranch and I was shocked they charged me tax for it on top of that I asked for a few additional pickles and was told I also had to buy them. I was shocked honestly. The tender fries were actually very good however the burrito had very little chicken and was a majority of Mac and cheese. Unfortunately we will not be returning to spend almost 40.00 it was not worth it to us.

    Chicken & Waffles medium hot  So good!
    Dana C.

    I really like Nash + Tender! We were going to get the chicken and waffle sandwich but opted to make our or little creations with the chicken and waffle plate (no slaw for us). Everything was perfectly cooked. The chicken portions were huge! The chicken was all white meat, unprocessed chicken breasts perfectly buttered and fried. The waffles were cooked perfectly. Crisp on the outside and soft on the inside with a little chew to them. They were so good. I ordered the medium heat and let me tell you, they pack some heat. Definitely hotter than a usual medium heat. Next time I'll order mild so my taste buds still function by the end. I added a little honey to my hot chicken and it cut the heat a little and was so good. Fast and friendly service, very clean restaurant and really good food. We will definitely be back.

This is the second time we're missing one of the sides like literally it's country fried steak, mashed potatoes, and coleslaw and a biscuit there's a spot for each item. How do you forget one of the items? Also, I order one of the boxes for my husband that comes with two different sauces. We literally got no sauces whatsoever no butter or honey for the biscuits. Nothing the box comes specific with two sauces and nothing. I did call the manager absolutely nothing that he could do for me over the phone, but I wanted to let them know that their employees are getting paid $20 an hour to mess orders up. So don't worry I also already did the survey and I'm gonna talk to corporate. I gave them a slide last week, but seriously your Wednesday crew is definitely lacking. And I know sometimes people might say that's not that big of a deal but it is a big deal. I can't just go back with my autistic child who is already having issues today and the main reason that we go is for their country fried steak deal and if I had the time I would've dug through the bag to make sure everything's there cause I definitely do that at McDonald's. I damn sure make sure I get my barbecue sauce for my kids nuggets before I pull away cause I've done that mistake once before. But when all three boxes are stuffed in a bag and I got him screaming in the background I don't really have time in the drive-through to do that. I just expect these people they get paid $20 an hour to not forget the items that are requirements for the items that are being ordered.

I called the Lodi Wingstop to ask why, and the person who identified themselves as the manager told me that because they were so busy, they weren't accepting promo codes. We were told our options were to either wait an hour between placing our meals or drive to the Stockton location. What made the situation even worse was the manager's attitude. Instead of trying to help or offering any kind of solution, they were rude, dismissive, and acted like we were inconveniencing them just by asking a question. Customer service goes a long way, and this was one of the worst interactions I've had. If you're going to advertise online promotions, they should either be honored or clearly communicated as unavailable before customers place their orders not after. Very disappointing experience. To make matters worse, we ended up going into the store anyway to place my husband's order. Unfortunately, the poor customer service didn't stop there. The same rude attitude continued, not only toward me but toward several other customers while we were there. It was disappointing to watch people simply asking questions or trying to place orders be treated with such disrespect. Being busy is understandable but there's no excuse for treating customers poorly. A little kindness and professionalism go a long way, and sadly, that was completely lacking during our visit.

Also, they got the order correctly even though it was super busy. The wings were made right. Good amount of sauces over the wings. It wasn't too oily or too salty. It was perfect. If only the place was a bit more clean and service a bit more attentive, it would be an amazing experience. I recommend to order online. Who know how long you gotta wait if you order in person Hahh
