    Chicken wrap
    Alan B.

    This place wasn't bad, never had it before, I got a chicken wrap by itself and 6 piece tenders with tots, and 3 sauces. It was quite a long wait for the food, and when I grabbed it I brought to my truck and double checked and seen they gave me the wrong order. Went back in to exchange the wrong order for my wrap. I'm thinking they just put those tenders in my wrap. The chicken was "ok" the wrap was decent. The sauce cups were extremely tiny! 2 sauce cups for 6 tenders and 1 cup for the wrap... nothing really stood out here except the long wait and wrong order.

    Just discovered Sneaky Bird in Surprise and... yeah, this one's officially in our regular rotation. This is very much a mom-and-pop, Phoenix-local spot, and they commit to their lane: baked chicken, not fried. And it works. Big flavor, zero grease, no food coma afterward. They offer a great selection of dry rubs and sauces, and you get to pick one of each, which is a fun way to customize your order. We went with one of their featured combos, SMOKY & SASSY: Lemon Pepper rub + "The Q" (Citrus Chipotle BBQ). Sweet, smoky, citrusy, with just the right amount of heat. Balanced and bold without being overpowering. We ordered the chicken tenders, and they were excellent--juicy, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. My only nitpick: I wouldn't have been mad at a little more sauce. My wife and I shared the four-piece, and while it was satisfying, we both agreed we probably could've ordered a bit more. Rookie mistake. Won't happen again. Sides matter, and Sneaky Bird delivers. The tots are a must--crispy, golden, and dangerous in the best way. The side veggies were a nice accoutrement (yes, I meant to use that word), fresh and a great contrast to the chicken. Now let's talk dessert. Get the salted maple cookie. Non-negotiable. Warm, rich, perfectly sweet with that salty finish--it's the kind of cookie you think about later. Absolute must-get. One caveat: there is some spice here. It's not wild, but if you don't like heat at all, keep that in mind. If you do, you'll find this quite nice. Yes... I meant to rhyme. Bottom line: great food, reasonable prices, not greasy, and full of flavor. Sneaky Bird just earned a permanent spot on our "where should we eat again?" list. We'll be back. Soon.

    Hubby was over the moon with the sliders. They came with tots. I will agree - so good! Super moist and yummy. Because I am a crazy person and won't eat anything breaded I ordered the "bare" chicken wrap and it definitely wasn't as delish as the hubs. I ordered the sweet potato tots - they do have maple tots but I'm sure you can figure out - if I'm not eating a breaded piece of chicken- I'm not ordered maple tots So the bare chicken - they season it with salt and pepper if you do not get a rub. Too much pepper for me and wasn't as moist as the hubbies breaded chicken. Now the beautiful thing - nothing is fried! They have a bunch of rub options and sauces. My husband had the habanero - it was fruity and had a great flavor. I ordered the buffalo and it was perfect. The guy brought us over - other sauces to try and they were all great! Their ranch is on point! My husband said "this will be a go to" I think I will go breaded next time as the juiciness of the chicken was perfect.

    I am a huge fried chicken fan, so I was thrilled that Sneakybird delivered incredible crispiness and juiciness without the deep-fryer! This truly is excellent non-fried chicken--it absolutely does not disappoint. I didn't even have to ask, but I'm willing to bet those tater tots are baked, too. It felt great to enjoy such a delicious, guilt-free meal! The flavor options were fantastic, and the accompanying sauces provided the perfect added kick. I thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience and will definitely be back for more.

    We ordered takeout from here for the first time. Easy to place order online. Pickup was easy. The order was ready on time. We ordered the chicken tenders + tots. One battered (home style) and one naked. Home style with regular tots 4.5/5 with jalapeño garlic ranch rub 4.5/5 southwest ranch 4/5 and habanero mango 4.5/5 sauces. Naked tenders 4/5 + sweet potato tots 4/5, garlic butter Parmesan rub 2/5, and Thai sauce 4/5.

    Amazing Chicken tenders with sweet potato tots. Smoky honey peach sauce w mango habanero. Excellent service friendly staff!! Play music as well during lunch In surprise,Arizona. See photo !

    This was my first time coming to sneaky bird. One of my friends recommended it to me so i decided to order maple tots, bread, 4 tenders, 2 lemon pepper , and 2 garlic parm. Both of flavors of the chicken tenders are dry rubs. The chicken wasn't greasy or oily, nor fatty. The lemon pepper tenders didn't have much lemon flavor but the pepper taste wasn't overpowering, honestly would have been good if there was a lemon slice on the side. It tasted well with the bread and a pickle. The garlic parm wasn't my favorite it was a little overpowering but it would have tasted perfect if I put it over some Alfredo noodles at home. The pickles. The pickles were so good I asked for a side of them before I left. Which they BLESSED me with. The pickles weren't to salty or loaded with vinegar they were crunchy and perfect. I honestly would go back just to get a bunch of pickles. The maple tots were ok in my opinion. I personally don't like warm sweets so the warm maple tasted off to me, I did finish them cold when I got home I won't lie. They have this coating of sugar in them that doesn't just fall off. The bread was also ok nothing special, it didn't have any butter it was sweet though so it had some flavor. Jojo and Cj welcomed me in with a smile and politely waited for me to look through the entire menu, while asking questions. Than took my order with a genuine smile and attitude. Not like a normal fast food welcome of a "hi hello may I take ur order...ok next" kind of attitude. The stuff made my experience seem like a genuine and sincere. I will be coming back not only for those pickles but to also try new flavors. I would also like to throw in they gave me a cool sticker.

    Chicken Sandwich Meal
    Destiney S.

    Really disappointed on my second visit. The first one was so good that I came back again a week later. On my last visit, the woman taking my order was so friendly and this time, the employee seemed to want to just rush me as I ordered. I was barely able to finish my sentence when she was already asking me the next question. There was literally no one behind me! She rushed me so much that I forgot to order a cookie. She also just walked away from the register when it came to me paying and didn't come back. Guess I didn't need my receipt after all according to her. Just beyond rude and unfriendly. I ordered the garlic butter Parmesan as the rub for my chicken sandwich and I received an unflavored chicken. The chicken sandwich on its own isn't that good to have a missing flavor. Also, I received way less tots than the previous visit and they were undercooked. I waited over 15 minutes to receive this very unsatisfying meal. The only positive was the pepperoni flatbread. This was actually good. I don't know if I would get it often as $8+ seems a bit pricey just for a smallish flatbread pizza but the sauce was good and the cheese did that cheese pull. I received a text to give my opinion on my order which I did (same as above) and just received a generic response so the store doesn't seem to care too much.

    Slider Tots

    We tried the food based on the recommendation from a friend who lives locally. The service was knowledgeable and friendly. The front of the house staff were patient with us and answered all of our questions. The restaurant is modern and has a fun hip vibe. But the food is the real gem. I loved the tater tots! I could eat a bucket of them. The tenders were large and tasty. The chicken had a great rub. My friends had the sandwiches and sliders and they were super pleased. Definitely a great place for lunch or dinner. I can't believe it's not fried! I dove a place where you can choose your own sauces and rubs. Thanks Sneakybird for sneaking into my heart. We will always remember your salted molasses cookies.

    I was craving chicken gizzards and found this place after much internet searching. Based on their…read moremenu, they looked like just the place I needed for my gizzard fix and I did the 45 minute drive to get here. The thing about gizzards is, they need to be properly prepared before frying. The key is to use slow, moist heat. This can be achieved through stewing, braising, or using a slow cooker. Alternatively, you can tenderize gizzards by gently boiling them before frying. They didn't do any of these. What I got was 50% inedible gristle rubber bands. The breading was specs instead of coating. They were served on a sheet of wax paper on a plate that caused each gizzard to become soggy in the drained grease that pooled instead of being absorbed. The single available bottle of hot sauce in the entire place was really good. I think this place has promise with their 'cooked to order' scratch kitchen, but my meal today was disappointing

Feel free to post my full visit from your security footage! My husband, kids, and I stopped in for an early dinner, we had never been but see the reviews online so we wanted to try it out! Getting seated, we didn't want a high top and it was the only thing available. The hostesses couldn't give us an estimate of what the wait time would be for a different table, but I'm realizing after our horrendous experience- they probably weren't trained. We ended up just taking the high top to negate any further confusion with a time estimate. It's crowded inside, and your table is crowded. The energy and atmosphere is tense and overwhelming. It's a sports bar, though- so I feel like that's consistent with any other sports bar you'd pop in to. We decided on the build your own appetizer to start, it came out room temperature. While our server was taking our order for the rest of the food (there was apparently an issue with the table next to ours and their food being taken to the incorrect table, again with poor training) the manager went out to the table next to ours to deliver food and turned to the server at my table, taking my order, and interrupted me to yell at her. He yelled at her about putting the incorrect table on the tickets and the food going to the wrong table, yelled at her the right table numbers( I guess for her to remember next time?), and then stormed off. Leaving our server, to pick up the pieces and apologize for an emotionally triggered man that should have some self control if he's leading a team or part of a company. I was absolutely disgusted with the behavior of the leadership in this establishment and the food was unremarkable. Cold, bland, and stingy is how I would describe the food we were served. There were barely any cheese curds on the Poutine, The Ole Smokey pizza was mediocre and the pasta was bland. I think this restaurant rides the coattails of being on the food network but it does not meet expectations, by far. There is a lack of training all around and that falls on leadership, only. The hostesses couldn't give a wait time, the bartender was over serving customers (I'm reporting that separately to the state), and the servers/runners aren't fully trained for the floor- but instead of teaching, training and finding a resolution- their lead will berate and belittle them to satisfy his ego and ruin your experience. I'm actually grateful the food was as mediocre as it was because I'm happy to never be back.

Cooked just right. Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Excellent, fresh flavor! As it is prepared to order, expect about a 15 minute wait time for the chicken... but WELL worth that wait, as it turned out. Fries and Onion Rings sides were PERFECT, and tastier than most. Interesting, varied menu, too! Very generous portions... and the chicken pieces were real, actual sized pieces of chicken... not like the canary-sized tidbits served up by today's fried chicken chain outlets! Although the seating area was VERY small (store front operation,) the facilities were bright, clean and well maintained. The staff was welcoming, patient and most helpful as we worked our way through their surprisingly large, and varied menu! Reasonably priced, too! Overall... a happy find... and now one of our go-to favorites! Just wish they had a LOT more locations closer (to us!) Surprise/Sun City areas would benefit from having closer access to Outta Bronx sandwich/hot dog/wings/Krispy Krunchy chicken locations! I think it would catch on in no-time... assuming today's quality, and value, remained the same, of course. I'm, generally, hard to please... but Outta Bronx/Krispy Krunchy chicken seems to hit it on all cylinders! VERY pleased. Mark us down as huge fans!

    Outta Bronx - A Very Disappointing Visit and an Even Worse Follow‑Up…read more We've been customers of this spot for some time, and up until now, the food has always been solid. Unfortunately, our latest experience was far from what we've come to expect. Our order was wrong from the start -- something we caught before leaving -- and we were told our food had been handed to another customer, so it had to be remade. Annoying, but understandable. The real issues showed up once we got home. The mac and cheese tasted stale and simply wasn't edible. The Reuben was another disappointment: barely any meat, what little there was had been overcooked, and the sandwich had almost no sauerkraut. When I flipped it over, I could literally see more toppings through the meat than actual meat. The only thing that resembled their usual quality was the chicken fingers. What pushed this experience from disappointing to unacceptable was the phone call I received from the owner,after I emailed their website to share what happened. My intention was to give them a chance to address the situation privately rather than jumping straight to a negative review. Instead, I spent nearly half an hour listening to the owner defend the food, insist the items we ordered weren't their "best sellers," and tell us to choose different items next time. They claimed nothing could be wrong with the food and that we should have just eaten it. They also said the mac and cheese wasn't their responsibility and told us to complain to Krispy Krunchy Chicken because they "just microwave" what they receive. When asked whether a replacement would resolve the issue, I said yes -- only for the owner to then accuse me of taking money from their family and saying they personally wouldn't complain about food they didn't like. I was told to just eat it and avoid ordering those items again. I have this all recorded. If you're going to ask whether a replacement would make things right, why turn it into an argument afterward? This could have been handled quickly and respectfully. Instead, I was told I was bothering them by emailing on a Friday night, and the entire call felt unnecessary and unprofessional. Calling a customer on a Friday night to argue is not how you keep loyal customers. After enjoying this place for some time, it's disappointing to see how poorly concerns are handled when something goes wrong. Update: I believe the response to this shows what I outlined above. I do not know this owner personally. I met them twice at the restaurant when getting my orders and both were good yet brief experiences. I also do not understand how there is fraud in contacting a restaurant, via their contact us email address, to inform them of issues you had with an order. Their call to me, in response to the email, was not a personal call and entirely business related. This simply shows that this is the type of response one can expect if they have any issues with their order.

    Never left a review before, but this visit was disappointing…read more My wife and I had recently become regulars on Wednesday nights for the wing special -- $0.79 wings with the purchase of a drink. My wife usually drinks water, while I typically order multiple beers. I understand the purpose of the policy and why it exists. Discounted specials can be abused, and that makes sense. However, during our previous visits, my drink purchases had always counted toward qualifying us for the special. This time, we were told that the drink requirement applies specifically to the person ordering the wings, regardless of how much was spent on drinks at the table. The server explained that the manager was firm on enforcing that rule. The frustrating part is the inconsistency. If this had always been the policy, that would be one thing--but allowing it previously and then suddenly enforcing it differently made for a frustrating experience. In the end, it felt like unnecessary rigidity and money left on the table. Because of the experience, we chose not to order anything extra beyond our initial order. Unfortunately, this visit left a bad impression, and we'll most likely be taking our business elsewhere, which is disappointing because we had genuinely been enjoying coming here.
