We were taking our granddaughter from out of state so we could all experience it for the first time together as she had this on her "must try" list. We got 2 box combo's. Chicken was super moist, fries on point and 2 of us liked the sauce. My fiancé does not do pepper well, so she had to eat the strips plain. They do not have seasoning on them at all, so she was a tad bummed. Really wish they would offer ranch at the least. Overall it was good for my granddaughter and myself as we enjoyed the sauce. 4 stars for food, but Sanara got the 5th star with her smile and attitude.

A co-worker spoke highly of this chain, so I had been counting the days until its Grand Opening…read more The first weekend, the drive-through line extended into the street, a good sign for the restaurant but not a great sign for getting in and out. Several weeks later, when the crowds died down, I popped in for dinner. The small parking lot was nearly full; I snagged the last spot. Maybe this is more of a to-go place? The menu is very limited. Essentially, there are various combinations of (3, 4, and 6) chicken fingers with fries and sides. There is also a chicken sandwich. I ordered the Box Combo, which includes four chicken fingers, sauce, fries, coleslaw, Texas toast, and a beverage, but I was worried I would still be hungry. The staffer reassured me that it would be more than enough. And she was right. The sizable chicken fingers were juicy and tender with a tasty, crunchy coating. The crinkle-cut fries were a-okay, as was the coleslaw. However, I did not care for the sauce, expecting it to be a bit sweeter, like J. Alexander's, nor did I care for the toast. The team staffing the restaurant was top-notch. They stayed on top of cleaning up the restaurant and replacing the garbage cans while remaining friendly and pleasant to customers.

I am not a huge fried chicken guy... so this place hasn't really been on my hit list…read more My fiancee however is a huge chicken girl, so for dinner one night she took us to Ma Lou's. Let me tell you how sad I was that I had waited this long to try out the place... we were greeted like we had been there many times. We ordered a ton of food to sample. She got the basic chick with bacon and no mayo, because she can't handle spice. The sandwich was HUGE. She couldn't finish it all in one sitting. But she loved every bite. She actually said she would come back JUST for the sweet potato fries, because they were so good. I got the white trash fries to go with my Mac Smasher... the fries were decent. The Mac Smasher though was amazing. I had my whole double while at the table. I even ordered one 2 weeks later when i left the state as my goodbye meal. We tried the mac and cheese and the collard greens. She said that the mac and cheese was the best she had ever had at a restaurant. Collard greens were tasty and had chunks of meat in it. I tried (the next day mind you, because we were stuffed) some of the wings with their medium sauce. Even reheated they were moist and properly cooked.... This was a 5 star experience, and had a 5 star leftover experience. Amazing all the way around.

They are carnival-style fried dough and absolutely evil and delicious. They taste like savory donuts. We came here, driving past our favorite, Pizza Perfect, to try a new place (to us).

The party store gas station is well stocked and fun to browse while you wait.

Saroki's has the best fried chicken ever. It's better than Popeyes and KFC. I can't believe that…read moreall of their locations are at Shell gas stations. They have some chicken that's already fried under heat lamps, but you can also ask them to fry you new pieces. I got the three piece (two wings and a breast) plus biscuit for $7.99. The breast was already fried under a heat lamp and they were out of wings. They told me that it would be twenty minutes if I wanted to wait for the wings. That was fine and I waited. The wings and breast tasted the same even though the breast was under the heat lamp and the wings were freshly fried. It was extra crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside and very well seasoned. Their biscuits are also delicious. It has a crispy honey coating on the top and the inside is very fluffy. Trust me when I tell you that they have the best fried chicken. I eat fried chicken all the time. I need to stop, lol. I tried another location before this and came here just to compare. They were both legit.

I work in the general area of where Saroki's is located and I was craving fried chicken…read more I tried Saroki's since it's close. I have not ever bought a meal from a gas station (there... I said it). I LOVE it!! For $13, I get my choice of 3 chicken parts, a side- the Cole slaw is really good... a little tart, a little sweet. The chicken - even after sitting a bit - is always great, never soggy and with a spicy kick. And a soda. The food & counter area are clean, tidy and well maintained. The staff at the food counter are really nice people and unless you want a pizza, the wait is minimal. You can buy one piece of chicken, or combos, plus they have wonderful looking pizza. And prolly much more. I selected "Ambiance" because the counter and business area are never dirty, the employees are polite, friendly and if it was a "stand alone" establishment, it would reflect the owners's vision. Gas prices are decent, also!!
