I also grabbed a huge sandwich because I work overnights. Fried Ice Cream ; unfortunately I think I was oversold on this. When I talked to the counter server last time, I told her that I've been disappointed with many places that coats cornflakes on a scoop of ice cream and that I am searching for a place that actually batters ice cream and deep fried. She told me they deep fried their ice cream, and even Sookie herself told me it's fried. I don't know, from my customer POV it doesn't seem like it. I have to clarify that the item was delicious. It's just not what I expected when I ordered it. Asian Cheesesteak ; I ate this several hours later and cold. This was GOOD. Seemed like some sort of charred teriyaki flavor which definitely matches what it looks like. Very satisfied with this and highly recommended.

My friend and I went to Shake n Dog company, not expecting much. However, as soon as we walked into…read morethe store, we were astonished by its beauty and its coziness. After the amazing impression, we decided to take a look at the menu. Once I went to order, the sweetest cashier took my order. The food was served neatly, with such the same retro aesthetic as the restaurant. To be honest, the French fries were a little salty, but they were delicious nonetheless. Also, the lemonades turned out a bit sour, yet we loved them. The sandwiches, the hot dog, everything was tasty and flavorful. And don't let me talk about the coconut shake I had! I haven't had one like that in years. Shakes n Dog Company is indeed an amazing place to grab a bite and hang out with friends and/or family.

When I came to the diner I ordered the sausage and gravy over biscuits. The owner himself served…read morethe food to me and boasted how its $4.75 with coffee. In my mind I was already regretting my decision. He also boasted how he serves about 50 gallons a week to which I questioned if he serves it to pigs. I proceeded to taste only to realize that it tasted like gunk and he makes the environment hostile by angrily saying that hundreds of people eats this every week and it is NOT worth spitting out even though it could make someone sick. Then someone made a mess in the kitchen and said that the women are best are cleaning it as its up their ally. Anyway I came back later in the night for dinner and I request a Greek-Style Crusted Rack of Lamb and LET me tell you how chaotic it was. One chef couldn't repeat back the order, another chef had an an aggresive attitude and wanted to do the meat despite the fact that he was in charge of the salads. The owner then proceeded to throw the rack of the lamb with NOT an ounce of seasoning or sear. 5 of the cooks saw this and rallied behind him to correct sear and season the lamb. When I was served my dish it was a mess. ALL of the lamb was improperly cut with one looking like as if though he took a bite out of it. When I took my dish to explain it I saw at LEAST 10 pounds of LAMB WASTED. I decided to leave as the kitchen was such a mess and when I said my experience was horrible the owner said a horrible comment. He was lucky that he was the OWNER and NOT an EMPLOYEE because I would have ejected him from the kitchen and told him to go upstairs and get his bags packed. - Nordon Samson For anyone reading this, understand that I am referring to a famous moment about the owner. Aside from this the coffee and pancakes were ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND everyone to come here for pankcakes and the breakfast.

Without a doubt, this is the perfect expression of what an extra crispy fried chicken should be…read more Parking is super simple since it's located in the large Market Basket/Ollie's parking lot on John Fitch. The interior is very sparse and clearly modeled for most takeout; there are literally only 4 tables inside; 2 meant for couples and 2 meant for groups of four. None of the decoration stands out but it's clean and that's really all you should want when you spend your hard-earned cash. I've eaten here several times and this place never misses. The crunch on this chicken is out of this world and somehow it stays very delicate and ultra crispy. The meat inside is perfectly cooked and juicy. Even the dang popcorn chicken is juicy perfection. This isn't KFC - the meat and batter are not heavily seasoned and if you're expecting more you better pay 50 cents per sauce cup. I always grab a couple of Yum sauces. Everyone needs to come check this place out - it sets a new benchmark for quality fried chicken. I decided to go pretty crazy with the embedded pictures, but I HAD to show off how crazy crispy the chicken is and how juicy the meat is.

Good ac and bathroom down the long hallway is decent. One person taking orders. 5/5 popcorn chicken one of the best ive had. It was fresh fried so everything is cooked to order. It came out hot and crispy. The breading was solid and retained a lot of flavor. Each chunk of white meat chicken was tender and juicy and full of flavor (definitely marinated before with some tenderizer like yogurt maybe) 4.5 / 5 drumsticks. Like some reviews, super crispy and had to bite a few times before getting to the juicy tender meat in center. Like the popcorn chicken, has good flavor with savory seasonings in the breading and marinated meat. 4.5 / 5 has to do a separate review for the sauce. The sauce is incredible. The Yum Yum sauce is a mix of this tangy mayonnaise garlicky sauce that you sometimes we get on like Halal guys or chicken and rice guys but a slightly tangier flavor. The first small cup of sauce comes free per chicken dish but 50cents for any extra. Well worth it! Have gone twice and will definitely go again.

Lately, I have been more tuned into the Fitchburg and Leominster food scene and I've noticed that…read morethis place has been pretty buzzy lately. Having been a local my entire life, I guess it's kind of embarrassing that I've never checked this place out. Well, as they say, "better late than never!" This place is located on Water Street and parking is as simple as pulling off the side of the road and finding an open spot. There are no parking lines, of course. Walking up to the food truck, you can tell that this place has been a Fitchburg staple for decades. Upon closer inspection of the signage and windows, you can see some modern flourishes driven by the community. A lot of the signage is clearly AI generated but they add fun flavor and color to the aesthetic without feeling like corporate slop. Next to the food truck is a small canopy area and three wooden tables meant to comfortably seat 4-6 people each. Paul was a delight to talk to and I can tell that he is a kind soul who only wants to help the community. If you're a local, it's worth following Janet's Chili Dogs Fitchburg on Facebook for business updates. Anyway onto the food! Chili Dog ; This was great! The chili was very flavorful and surprised me that there was some heat in there. The wiener was interesting - I've never tried one that was a pale color like this. AI tells me it's an uncured hotdog? If so, then I need more of this because I personally don't like hot dogs due how salty they are and this wiener was perfect. I like that there was care to pour a bit of chili in under the wiener before pouring the rest over it. The bun was not soggy at all either. Moms Sloppy Joes on a Toasted Roll ; I was a little disappointed by how small this portion was. I also felt like it could've been a little more saucy or moist. After all "sloppy" joes makes you imagine a messy sandwich. Anyway the flavor was on point but it really just leaves you wanting so much more. Spicy Fries (small) ; I had to double-check this. The fries are super super super lightly seasoned. I'm not even sure if I captured it in my picture. Maybe I'm expecting too much since I had 5 Guys literally a couple of days ago, but this gave me a "are you kidding me?" gut reaction. Well, they're fries and they were nicely crispy. nothing to write home about. Despite my middling opinion on two of the three items, I have to remind myself that I just purchased three menu items and paid less than $14 total. That's a really good price, and because of that I think I should really adjust my expectations. Next time? I'm ordering TWO sloppy joes. The Fitchburger and Leomonster look like fun choices too.
