First let me say I've never really been a fan of Raising Cane's. I first experienced them in Allen, Texas around 2012. We were eating at the newly opened In n' Out burger and decided to get a few chicken fingers since they were located right next door and our kids didn't want burgers. Coming from the land of Zaxby's Chicken (which I still love), I didn't really find Cane's to be as flavorful, nor their sauce as tasty. However, being the total optimist that I am, when they began expanding to Georgia in 2023, I willingly gave them another try at this location. Grand opening week was extremely crowded and even the drive-thru lines were bananas. So I waited a few weeks for the crowds to lessen and finally, more than a decade after my first time eating their chicken, I discovered I still was not a fan. Fast forward again to June of 2026. I'm totally loving all the TikTok and Facebook videos of foreign visitors during the World Cup trying American foods for the first time in different cities all across the country. The excitement in video after video for Cane's made me want to give them yet another try. So I did! I can't explain it. Maybe it was just a good day, but for whatever reason I really enjoyed my chicken fingers this time and to be honest, I'm still in shock! The tenders actually had flavor outside of being dipped in sauce and were perfectly tender and juicy! Previously I thought the chicken was bland. FINAL THOUGHTS Maybe I've been too critical in the past, maybe the hype of foreign visitors has softened me, or maybe I've been wrong all along... but for the first time ever I'm a fan of Cane's. Hopefully that won't change on future visits now that they will be in my rotation of restaurants. read more

Very efficient and fast service during the lunch hour . Food was fresh and hot and not overly salted like their competitors who are serving 400mg salt bombs but I digress. Restaurant is clean and employees are in point. Juicy chicken served with amazing toasted buttered bread and fries. No salads or wraps . read more

I was headed home today and got off on Hamilton Mill and actually haven't got off there in quite a while, but I was heading to Zaxby'ss. They were closed.! I wasn't happy. I drove two hours planning pick up chicken to take home for me and my son then I saw canes! I have never been here before and didn't really know what they focused on other than chicken so I looked them up on yelp and they had chicken fingers which is what I was craving so I stopped by. It was 830 on a Sunday night. , pretty good double line going, but it wasn't long. Ordered me the cane combo or two of them six piece, with a drink 15 bucks which is par and I was glad I came here!! First , the girls working here are fantastic! They are nice. They are friendly. They are amazing at their job so kudos to the staff.!! I got the food home as I live in Winder . Reheated it in the air fryer and a six piece combo is a boatload of food.!! I always air fry food if I pick it up on the way home cause I like my fries hot but the chicken tenders were, had a nice flavor., I'm not really getting the negative reviews because this place is exactly what I thought it was. It says Good equal or better than Zaxby's and with that kind of customer service. I'm going back for sure. I ate a few of the wings and the coleslaw and fries and my Sprite and I was absolutely stuffed then I made a Chicken sandwich with Boursin cheese, some lettuce tomato, and sauce and have a great lunch Monday. . Just having a drive-through line with super nice friendly faces was so pleasing! I'm a personal chef and I don't eat fast food very much at all but I was tired. Worked 11 hours and this really hit the spot. Good service, good quality, highly recommend !!! read more

We were traveling and my daughter wanted Canes. We don't have one near us but WOW we sure want one now !! We went through the drive thru and everyone was so nice and helpful!! The food was hot and delicious and they were quick!! They even remembered extra napkins. Definitely worth the stop. We will be back next time we visit family. Oh yeah, real Southern Sweet Tea !! Perfection! read more

I like the people and the attention to detail. Even if they get the order wrong, they are nice, smiling, and try to get it right. Unlike Popeyes!!! read more

I wanted to wait for the hype to die down a little bit before trying Raising Canes, but there was still quite a crowd in the drive-thru at lunchtime. Mildly annoyed that the online ordering won't allow for drive-thru pick-up or curbside pick-up. You have to still park and go in to retrieve your order. So I chose to just drive there and join the queue to order what was a seriously underwhelming meal. The gal at the window was very pleasant, and the prices were reasonable, but the quality of the chicken and fries was just so sub-par. If it wasn't for the Canes sauce, I would've wondered if the chicken, its breading and the fries were seasoned at all - it all tasted just very boring, so I guess it's like what people have been saying about all these chicken places - they're the same-ish chicken, but it's the sauces that set them apart from one another. read more

Update review ,tried one more time after a year ,food can't compare with chick fla but the price is the same .i would rather go for chick fla for their food and service .try mobile order this time ,and app shows no drive thru pick up ,have to be curbside pick up ,so I followed instruction on the phone ,parked at their pick up spot for 10 mins ,no one came out .There was no car on the drive thru ,then I just drove to drive thru lane and told them I have mobile order pick up,I was surprised they told me 'You have to come inside' !i was like what ?there has no one there and that is not called curbside pick up .I was so mad and went inside ,one employee told me your food is there on the shelf .I was like ,are you serious ,why you didn't come out tell me come inside instead of waiting at the curbside spot for 10 mins .Honestly won't go back there no more . read more

Our family stoped by raisin canes. 25 piece tenders for 42 dollars! Nothing else. Add a scoop of nasty flavorless coleslaw and cold bread. 53$ what in the world. And on top of the food costing as much as it did. That food must of been prepared by someone without taste buds. Neighbors it's time to stop throwing our money away read more

I love chicken! And this is good chicken! But it's really the sauce that is the hype! Because there is nothing special about the chicken. It's good though and I definitely will be back! I like the simple menu. read more

First time trying Raising Cane's ever. We came after a friend from church recommended it and we had a good experience. Overall Experience: 4 Food: 4 mostly fresh*, flavorful, crunchy, hot Service: 5 quick, correct order Ambiance: 5 clean, enough places to seat, decor. Drive thru: 3 long lines, confusing to find the entrance Parking: 4 lucky to find a spot When we arrived we were confused trying to find the entrance because one side was blocked. We drove around and got in line. When we got closer to the door we saw that inside didn't have a lot of people so we decided to park and go in. Luckily there was an easy parking spot. We ordered the CANIAC COMBO (6 chicken fingers, crinkle-cut fries, coleslaw, 2 cane's sauces, Texas toast, drink) + EXTRA FRIES and LEMONADE and it was about $20 (hubby and I shared). There wasn't a lot of people there so we were able to easily find a table (it was around 10pm btw). We got our food about 10 minutes after ordering it. Chicken: the first piece of chicken I ate was delicious. It was hot, crunchy, had flavor, and tasted fresh. The second piece I got was a disaster: colder, tasted like it had been seating there for the whole day, had a funny old taste, wasn't crunchy and not fresh (disappointed!). But then I tried another one and it was fine. Unfortunately I got a bad old one :/ Sauce: I love it! It reminds me of Zaxbys sauce. Fries: good as expected Toast: love it! FYI it has sesame seeds Coleslaw: it was ok. I would eat it again but it's nothing special. Lemonade: pretty good! They said it's "fresh squeezed". I didn't ask if it's free refill but the lemonade isn't with the other fountain drinks and teas. read more

Loved my First trip to Raising Canes in Dacula! The parking lot was set up well and in a way where it was very clear where you should go. The interior of the store was clean and had 3 disco balls spinning, adding to the flare of the store. I was greeted when I walked in and I proceeded to order the Caniac Combo (6 Tendies w/ fries, coleslaw, canes sauce, as well as a Large drink. The food was exceptional, and couldn't have been better. Excited that this location is closer to my home than Athens, but I can't wait for expansion into the North Georgia Area. With that said, I can see myself making many More trips to this location. I went in the morning, and it was quick as can be. read more

Really disappointed in the service and this isn't the first time. Got my food at the drive through and it's about a 10-15 min drive, realized the girl didn't give me my card back. I called and they had it. Drove all the way back to get it, had to go in with my pajamas as it was already after 10pm. The guy at the counter said, oh yeah idk what's going on in the drive through but that's been happening. The girl handed me my card, I left and ate my cold chicken when I got home. Didn't even offer a replacement meal for the inconvenience. Terrible. Won't be going back. read more

Yum! I would choose this place for chicken every time if there was one near me. We very much enjoyed the freshly made chicken, thinner crinkle fries, the thick, soft bread and especially the slaw that CFA and Zaxby's don't offer. The atmosphere was lively, and the service was excellent! Greenville, SC metro is the perfect market for your next restaurant. read more

For this to be the first day I can't complain. The line wasn't bad at 12 noon. I was in line for the drive-thru and had my food in 20 minutes. The order was correct, fresh, and delicious. Now, I can see it might be more packed this evening, the upcoming weekend. It's very close to my residence, so I will definitely return. read more

Raising Cane's is starting to open stores all over the ATL. We stopped into this one that has only been open a week over at Hamilton Mill. Since they have only been opened a week, the lines were long, seating was limited, and the parking lot was crazy. To their credit, they had police directing traffic, the store was still very clean, and the staff was cranking out orders like a well oiled machine. Not quite Chick-Fil-A level, but it was close. If you've never been, there are several options for eating. You can get chicken tenders, chicken tenders in a salad, or chicken tenders on a bun. But you're getting chicken tenders . We got a few tender combos. The Caniac, which is 6 tenders with fries, coleslaw, and Texas toast. The Box which is a 4 piece with the same, but the kiddos subbed the coleslaw for extra fries, and a three piece which has the same, but without the coleslaw. As for the food, the slaw was good. Not overly sweet and still crunchy. The fries were ok. We added salt to ours as it was lacking, but decent crunch. The Texas toast was also good. The chicken itself is where the issue comes in. The pieces were large, they were very juicy, but they lacked flavor. If you dunk the chicken in the Cane sauce, it was great, but on its own it just didn't taste like much. The breading stayed well and all that, they just need some kind of seasoning that isn't sauce. Essentially, they were "mid" as the kids say. Overall it was a good experience. They are opening one closer to us, so we will likely eat there again, but we won't be rushing back. If you have a choice between this or Huey Magoo's, Magoo's is gonna win every time. read more

I've never seen a restaurant that essentially forces you to buy a combo to get any value for your meal. Yes, you can technically order individual items like tenders and fries, but the pricing makes it cost-prohibitive and almost impractical. It feels like a tactic to upsell customers rather than providing flexible options. Lesson learned--my family and I will be choosing Huey Magoo's moving forward. If Raising Cane's wants to keep customers, they should seriously reconsider their pricing structure to allow more reasonable à la carte options. Until then, this approach feels more like a cash grab than customer care. read more

It is a fast food restaurant. The drive thru is out of the parking lot at times. The wait time for drive thru has improved drastically and there are lull periods where there is no line. The staff are friendly. The chicken tender are juicy and large in size; however the price point is pretty expensive for a fast food joint. The cane sauce is seasoned well and creamy. Definitely without it the chicken tender would not be as tasty. The Texas toast was not toasty at all and lacked garlic and butter. It was bland and too moist to be called a toast. The amount of fries given is generous but too starchy in texture. read more

Located in Dacula this newest location has officially worked out their kinks. It is a popular restaurant and was only allotted standard fast food parking which means the parking lot is always pretty full. The inside is pretty midsized and had fun memorabilia on the walls. The menu is small and concise and I will say the restaurant knows what they do well and sticks to that. I got the 4 piece tenders meal with canes sauce and honey mustard. Everything was cooked well and was delicious. NO SOGGY TENDERS HERE! The main issue I have which has more to do with the company than the franchise is there are only the two sauces to choose from for dipping. I am a saucy girl and need options The service is quick and my husband and I are always in and out. This is the best spot around for chicken tenders! read more

Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers - 4 tender meal - Fast Food Near Me - Dacula, Georgia

I was excited to try the tenders, but the happiness is in the sauce. The lines were long, the service was less than friendly and the food was just ok, the tenders are average tenderloins not much flavor and the fries look like they scrapped the bottom for my order, I would have waited for fresh fries....I probably wouldn't make this trip again read more

I don't understand the low ratings. Canes does two things: chicken tenders and fries. I made my way to this Canes a second time. I had the Cane's Box with four tenders, fries, toast and slaw. The star of this show is the chicken which actually came out moist and juicy both trips. That is not easy to do with chicken tenders. They often come out dry at other restaurants. The fries were good, although I prefer larger sized fries. These are like a crinkle cut shoestring fry. The sauce for the tenders is excellent. It does not overwhelm the chicken, as some sauces can do. Service was fast and friendly both times. These folks can crank out the grub. So relax, folks. This is fast food, not Bones. And Cane's is one of the better fast food restaurants in Atlanta (ok, way outside Atlanta). read more

I had to try this new place. For $9,00 I don't know what is the hype. I was hungry so as we were out on errands I suggested we try this new spot. Zaxby has better options and the best chicken tenders are at Publix. Publix tenders are bigger and also cheaper by the pound. They make a great topping on a salad and also make great chicken tacos! read more

Not impressed with Canes. Opened the box and the food smelled like fried fish. There is no fish on the menu... Went around 12:30pm, service was not the best, employees didn't seem to love their job. The French fries were good, cole slaw was good. Sauce was good but they don't give you enough sauce for the amount of tenders you get. Hoey's tastes better than Canes. read more

Food is not what I expected! It is tasteless! Never again!! I'm going to chick fil a!!!

Thought this place was pretty solid. I went late night so there was not much of a wait. I got my food piping hot and it was really good. Not sure if ppl are expecting to be treated like kings and queens at the drive thru but I thought the service was decent. read more

Good chicken fingers. Below average cole slaw. Bad drive thru service. May try again.

Noise pollution. Loud rap music inside and out. I paid for 2 extra sauces and didn't get them. Did not get my jug of tea either. Kids running this place with no supervision. Do not go to this location. I just hope the food is cooked ok and am not going to get sick. If it is run like the front service area I don't hold out much hope. read more

Food is always good, but the service and wait time here is horrible. They need to interview Chick Fil a for some tips. I dined in and ordered my normal 4 piece The Box Combo at like 2:46p and still didn't have until like 3:17p. 30 minutes‼ That ain't fast food read more

Quality has always been an issue for us at this location. Stopped going for a few months. Decided to give it another try tonight. We watched them drop a container of our food at the drive through window. The manager picked it up and told us he was replacing it. We watched him, in full view of the drive through window, hand the dirty food to the prep station and then they handed it right back, he re-boxed it, and tried to hand it to us. When my wife confronted him, he panicked and offered to make us new food. If he was willing to do this in front of customers I can only imagine the sanitation issues that occur behind the prep line. Never eating at this place again. read more

This is a subpar Cane's location. Cane's is a restaurant that my family really enjoys and we grew up eating it because there used to be one in our town. Whenever we travel to a city that has Cane's we always go and the quality is usually consistent across the country, until we went to this one. In the last few years we have not lived in places with a Cane's so when one opened up nearby we had to try it. This Cane's did not live up to the quality we are used to. The drive thru was horrible. They gave people their food out of order which caused huge delays. We were first in line to receive our food and 6 cars behind us received their food first and were trapped in the line and couldn't leave because we hadn't gotten our food yet. It made no sense especially considering the menu is very limited and we are all getting essentially the same thing. While we were waiting in the drive thru line I ran inside to use the restroom. It was dirty and there was no toilet paper. Then when we finally got our food after waiting for ~35min, everything was undercooked. The chicken breading was soft and falling off, the fries were barely golden and also soft, and the toast was not very toasted. They obviously rushed the food so they are either understaffed or under trained. The experience was extremely disappointing since Cane's is one of our favorites. We will stick to getting it when we travel to other cities rather than coming back here. read more

This review is solely on the wait. Has nothing to do with the food. This is the second time I've been to RC's since they opened and both times the drive thru wait has been beyond ridiculous. The first time I gave them a pass, because it was the first week they were opened and it was insane here. This time is a different story. I've been in line 28 minutes and just now placed my order. The drive thru line wasn't even that long. Sorry, but you all need to get tips from Chick Fil A. I've been in much longer lines in CFA and have NEVER had to wait even a third of the amount of time that I have been waiting here. read more
