    Chicken was bomb! Service was nice! We were some of the last customers of the evening and they…read moretreated us no less. Chicken was uniquely seasoned/marinated and hot, fresh and crispy! The dining area was clean and bright as well!

    Pretty stoked this place is finally open. I've been stalking their website and patiently waiting…read morefor a while now. Side note: On the website it's a Canadian concept... ??? Strange. This looks like the first franchise maybe. Need to read up on them. The wait is over now though! It looks just like the other one on the inside with bright colorful logos and beautiful pictures of fried chicken. I've been to the KCC on Stage many times but it's really out of the way for me. I need a reason to be in the area other than fried chicken. I do love fried chicken but an hour round trip drive for lunch is tough. My fish store is around the corner from this place so I now have new Bartlett food options. Yay! I stopped in eager to try their tasty chicken. It did not disappoint! They cooked it to order as it seems they do with every guest. They wait is 15 mins or more but it's so worth it! My chicken was steaming so bad you can see it on video. I love this fried chicken!! It's got a particular spice involved that I am not familiar with and cannot place it. I know that I love it though! It's so crunchy and still light. Great job!! Just lovely I wished the sides were better. They offer several but I haven't had one that I liked yet honestly. The Mac has changed a lot but has never been good. The mashed potatoes are weird with little uniform potato cubes in them. No on the slaw for me. The fries are the safest bet in my opinion. The meals are super cheap though and they all come with a cookie and a drink, so there is that. I usually just throw away the cookie. It's trash. Next time I will tell them to keep it. You get 2, 3, or 4, etc pieces and can name the pieces you want for no charge (I think). If you tried 4 breast they may balk at that, not sure. Solid place that will be on my regular rotation from here on out. I may just start buying the chicken in bulk and just eating it. I think I will be happier that way. '25 - 52/111

    We ate here as a family at 5:30 pm on a Sunday night. The premise of the place is…read morecool-lechón-flavored fried chicken. However, my kids did not appreciate the lechón flavor, and the food took an extremely long time. Overall, it was ok. The best part was probably the casual decor with cool signs on the walls.

    I love this fried chicken! I love all fried chicken, so it's really no surprise that I love this…read morefried chicken! Some fried chicken is better than others. Some fried chicken is not so good. This fried chicken, however, is very good. All fried chicken is good though. I will not hate on any fried chicken other than the fast food sponge type. That shit is gross! I have been to all locations that these folk have. I hope they make it here (more on that in a few). This location seems pretty dead mostly and they are not doing many things to help themselves I am afraid. But then again, I have seen this at the other two as well in the past and they are still growing. They must be doing something right. I'm the dumbass that thought Soul Fish would never make it, so... don't forget Adam. The workers are very pleasant, all seem to be Filipinos in the FOH, maybe since that's the basis of the concept. They are super nice but there can be a small language and cultural barrier when communicating with them. It's pretty low key inside. They have minimal decorations and did not much more than paint the place on the remodel. The chairs are uncomfortable, especially loud when they hit the floor, and oddly light. Why I think they may be in trouble... The front door is permanently closed. The other door had a closed sign on it twice when I have been there. The last visit the staff disappeared into a closet and two people came in and stood there alone. A guy that didn't speak English came up front and the customers asked, "are you open"? Additionally, the one side I found I liked here at the chain is different at this location. The onion rings are terrible here. They are crappy panko versions that get soggy and nasty really fast. The prices have skyrocketed at this location as well. Since last time I was here the 3 pc combo had increased 25% from the prior visit. That's an insane increase! On top of that, the website doesn't work and the pics they posted on Yelp themselves show the old prices still. Hate that mess!! Love this fried chicken but probably done with this location. I do still love the chicken. I'm done with the combos because the sides are all absolute trash, and the cookies suck too! They always have. Never eaten more than a bite of one. Only chicken for me from here on out. '25 - 116/111

    We order online and have our order delivered to the parking lot…read more Tonight, my husband was served a chicken-free chicken sandwich. He didn't discover the discrepancy until a few minutes after the restaurant closed and there was no answer to the phone the many times I called before 10:15 PM. Perhaps, even when the restaurant is closed, if only for a short time, (just in case of a ridiculous, embarrassing screw-up like this), the phones could be answered when people push the 6 button requiring immediate action. Alternatively, perhaps a part-time or late arriving worker should be responsible for that task. Another though: Could the person packing the order not notice a particularly lightweight box? Seriously? Neither the cook NOR the person packing the bag noticed a sandwich weighing one-third what it should? I understand wanting to get home from work quickly as well as anyone. I was also a restaurant employee, both server and supervisor for many years at a hotel owned by the Peabody Hotel Group. Every day we had approximately half the staff we needed, so, far better than anyone at ChickFilA could ever dream of, I needed to be relieved after eight hours. It NEVER happened. I expect horrible fast-food service in Memphis from every other chain which is why ChickFilA gets every one of our fast-food dollars. We expect excellence. ChickFilA offers it. Do better.

    I go to the Summer Ave Chick-fil-A regularly and the service is almost always great and the rare…read moreoccasion where something was wrong, they always have been very gracious and made it right quickly. Staff and managers are all friendly and do a great job of being customer focused. Food is very consistent, and again the rare occasion something was not quite right they immediately took care of it.

    This is the best Pirtles I've ever been to. That unfortunately doesn't say a lot though…read more I occasionally have a hankering for some chicken livers and they have them available all of the time. Half of the time I get them from here they are good. The other half reminds me why I don't come more often. I've had the chicken years ago and it's just meh. It just doesn't compete with any other chicken out there. The little biscuits are strange but tasty when you dunk them in that heart stopping gravy. That's at least worth a try once in your life. They have been in Memphis for 214 years or so. I guess they are a Memphis tradition you just have to throw a little money every once in a while in exchange for a chance of a good greasy meal. I'm cool with that....
