Crimson Coward (2nd Visit)…read more Came back for a second visit to Crimson Coward and it definitely confirmed why I wanted to give it another try. Food: This time I kept it simple but strategic. I ordered the smash burger combo (only $4.99 to upgrade--great deal), which came with fries and a drink. The burger was stacked with onion, American cheese, pickles, and their signature crimson sauce on a soft brioche bun. Everything worked together--juicy, flavorful, and not overly greasy. I also tried the Quarter Coward (an off-menu item priced at $5.49), got it mild with honey sauce. The chicken was cooked perfectly--tender inside with a nice crisp on the outside. The honey added just enough sweetness to balance the mild heat without overpowering it. Definitely a hidden gem on the menu. Atmosphere: The space is bright, clean, and inviting. I especially liked the open kitchen concept--it gives transparency and lets you see everything being made fresh. Plenty of tables available if you're dining in. Customer Service: You're greeted when you walk in, which I always appreciate. Ordering is primarily done through kiosks, so interaction is minimal unless you need assistance--but the setup is smooth and efficient. Wait Time: Everything is cooked to order, which I don't mind. I placed my order at 3:16 PM and had my food by 3:30 PM, so about a 14-minute wait--pretty reasonable for fresh food. Overall: Solid second experience. Good quality, fair pricing, and consistent execution. I'll definitely be back to explore more of the menu--especially those off-menu finds

They put it on bread which helps to absorb any extra moisture. The mac & cheese was fine. The boys liked it and it's good enough for a little bit of adult eating. The waffles were quite the hit. I think they might have deep fry them. Might seem like cheating, but oh boy was it really yummy. I suggest you give this a try. Not sure what the end dining scene is like.

3.10.26 My husband…read morewanted me to give this restaurant a try since I'm usually hesitant to eat anywhere that uses a lot of spices and seasoning. I ordered the jerk chicken bowl with potato salad, Old Bay fries, and ranch dressing. My husband got the jerk pork bowl with rice and peas and mac & cheese. I'm not sure whether it was the chicken or the ranch, but one of them was spicy enough to make my nose run. I have zero tolerance for heat, so it definitely caught me off guard. Hubby enjoyed his bowl, though he mentioned they gave him less pork than on previous visits. The staff were friendly and even brought the fries out to us on the patio. I really liked the fries and potato salad, but the chicken (or the sauce) was too spicy for me. I tried a bite of my husband's mac & cheese, and that was also good.

The spicy green salsa that came with my friend's order went wonderfully with it though. Would want to ask for their sauces next time. Friend who got the chicken taco said they were a bit dry (but I never get chicken tacos from anywhere cause they tend to be). Would go again if I wanted pupusas since they're nearby me, but service was pretty slow. Not the best but good enough.

I can't believe I haven't written a review... Maybe I'm trying to keep it to myself…read more Such good fried chicken. It'll surprise you. Their chicken sandwiches are bomb! The honey garlic and the honey butter are both good (a good combo on the sandwich too). Fries are always bomb. I think they would do well with a better bun and toppings but still a really good sandwich. A Laurel favorite and after church go-to. Grilled chicken and fried chicken wraps are also good. Food takes a little long... And service isn't the most friendly. Several tables to sit at and the place is clean but we always just eat in the car. (Who doesn't love a good car meal?)

7.15.25 This is my…read morehusband's and my favorite franchise for fried chicken. He has been saying for years that they need to open a location in Columbia. It was a pleasant surprise when I recently googled fried chicken and this location popped up in my search. It has been open for a few months. My husband called in our order while we were driving as the chicken can take awhile since it is made to order. We purchased half a chicken box which consist of four piece chicken (drumstick, breast, wing, thigh), fries, coleslaw, and a slice of bread. Although it took a little longer than normal, it was worth the wait. The fries and chicken were piping hot and crispy. When I bit into the chicken, it was crackling and so hot I had to blow on it. Aside from fried chicken, they also sell fish, wings, sides, and dessert. It's worth noting that their infamous lemon pepper seasoning, often referred to as crack because it's addictive, is available for purchase. My husband was thrilled to see this as the Glen Burnie location does not sell it. When I started taking pictures, one of the owners, Tiger, saw me and started chatting. My husband and I learned that he, his two brothers and his son are the owners of this franchise and that there are 43 locations. I had no idea there were so many. This location has a few tables and chairs, but patrons predominantly just do carry out. We are ecstatic to have our favorite fried chicken franchise so close to home.
