Best tender place around. Can't go wrong! Tenders are always juicy and the workers always have a great attitude and are very helpful

Removing stars because the restaurant increases the price if you pay with credit card. Otherwise an okay place. It is not obvious the price is changed until you compare the menu with the bill. They have a tiny sign notifying you of the price increase. read more

Internet says they're open at 10. I show up at 1045 to see the sign says open at 11. Ok, no big deal, I wait in my car 20 minutes until 11:05. The open sign is on, walk up, door is locked. After requesting they open the door they say they need 10 more minutes to "fix things". I love this place but haven't been in 5 years. I'm about to drive back to Tampa. Is it not possible for one employee to fix the things, and the other to take my order and start it?? I don't see the issue in that. So here I sit in Huey Magoo's writing this review, who oh by the way are also fixing things at this moment. read more

Food is always great!! And the serving sizes are enough to take left overs!! I recommend the Philly cheese steak fries!!! read more

Tenders - 10 piece tenders w/garlic bread - American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Delicious BBQ Mac and Cheese!! Seriously, great food, good vibes. I'd definitely recommend.

Tried this place because they always have deals on the app Zupp. Waited 35+ minutes for chicken tenders because they ran out of cheese for the sleezy melt. Got it to go and they forgot the sauce I ordered with it. Terrible place and terrible service read more

So I came here with a friend, and we each got a 15 piece wing meal with the two sides, garlic bread, and a drink. It was like $14. That's a great price. The wings were of good size but they were a little fattier than you want your wings to be, but you still got a great chunk of meat from each of them. I'm giving Tenders five stars for two reasons: the sides and the value. The tots were fresh and crispy, the fried mac and cheese bites were great, and the fried pickles were restaurant worthy. All that, at that wonderful price, is why I'm giving out the five stars. read more

If you're in the mood specifically for a basket chicken tenders, there may not be much separating this place from that other chicken tenders place right down the street. Which isn't to say that this is a problem, because both of them do a great job of making grilled chicken tenders (I've never had the fried variety at either location). It's a good amount of food, too -- 5 tenders with garlic bread and two sides with a drink comes out to around $10, and you'll be stuffed. Most people would probably be fine with the slightly cheaper 3-tender meal. Every side I've had (including garlic bread, regular fries, "cajun" fries, and hush puppies) has been good. There are other things on the menu, though, setting it apart from that other place (I generally don't like to name competitor names in my reviews), and while I haven't tried anything else yet, I'm definitely interested in going back to do so. read more

Tenders is a small fast food located near UCF. It was recommended by a friend and I must say its a really good spot. We ordered some chicken tenders and chicken wings. Both were hot and fresh and seasoned really well. Chicken tenders were just delicious. Serving portions were very generous and a meal could cost as little at $6, which includes chicken tenders, garlic bread, fries/onion rings and a sauce. It's a clean place and pretty busy as they serve great affordable meals. Will definitely go again. read more

Tenders - American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

Dont go by their pictures, their food lacks quality. i am sure pretty the french fries, burgers, tenders, they served us was cooked on a nasty month old oil. After eating i felt sick to my stomach as if i had eaten month old food I would never go back and for a fast food joint its not that cheap . With the same price i can go else where I would not be coming back EVER. read more

"Oh, so they make chicken tenders?" "What am i, eight years old?! I want a MAN MEAL!" "Try one" "Wow, i feel like i'm eight again! These things are amazing!" Probably some of the best tenders i've ever had. And when i found out they have ROTI (trinidad chicken curry with "pita" like bread) i was sold. The roti is awesome too, even after reheating hours later because i was full of delicious Tenders. Other carribean style food also available! If you want chicken done right, get it done Tenders! (trademark slogan pending approval.) read more

This is the ultimate munchies joint. The fried tenders are delicious. For dessert I recommend the fried cookie dough, pb&j or twinkies. The only problem is it's set back in the shopping center so its hard to notice. If my brother wouldn't have recommended it to me I would never have known about it. read more

I have been eating at this restaurant back when they first opened over nine years ago. This place used to be very good and the prices were great. Originally it was ran by a mom and her two kids, You can tell they loved the restaurant. However, ever since the new owners took over, this place has been lacking. The taste is essentially gone and the prices are very high. This went from one of my favorite restaurants to a restaurant I hardly ever go to. read more

I called to try and place an order for pickup, immediately put on hold. The call went on for 10 minutes before they decided to hang up on me. Heard the food was good but I guess I'll never know because being hung up on after waiting for 10 minutes does not make me want to call back and try again, it just makes me not want to order from Tenders. But I guess that's what I get for trying to support local businesses. read more

I ordered chicken tenders, garlic bread, cole slaw and a fried twinkie....The tenders werent crispy. The bread was good. Coleslaw was a bit dried...the twinkie reminded me of something you would get at a carnival...it smelled sooo good and was tasty..But I couldnt help but to think...this is screaming " NOT HEALTHY" lol. Overall good lunch option, if you want something quick but not so fast-foodish. read more

I love the good and never have a bad existence except for today. First of all I called at 9-9:15 no answer! I got there at 9:30 knowing they close at 10 but all the TVs were off so I asked if they were closed and the girl working said no we are not closed but order quick. Very rude but whatever. I asked if I could have some popcorn shrimp and she said they probably don't have any. I kept asking for food and she kept saying they may not have it until she finally asked the cook. There were customers after me and she turned them away until they called her out on closing time. She said they were closing early today? I was not happy with her customer service very very rude! read more

I was able to hit this place up for lunch with a couple of co-workers, and I was pleasantly surprised!! The name makes me think of your typical chicken place (tenders, popcorn, etc.), which the place has. BUT, the surprise here is the Roti, which are awesome!!! A pocket/wrap filled with curried chicken, potatoes, and other yummy ingredients. And the size of this Roti ... wow, it can easily feed two moderately hungry people ... or just eat it all and be ready for a nap in the afternoon!! The locale is a bit on the small side, but it is kept clean and when I went there, it was not super crowded, so it doesn't seem like it would fill up to the point on no seating. read more

A must go for the chicken lovers :) They have a pretty deal on Tuesday and Thursday. Tuesday deal has 5 chicken pieces with two sides and a drink, where as Thursday one has 3 chicken pieces with one side and a drink. Food is very delicious over here. Dont forget to try the Tenders Sauce if you are going for Tuesday or Thursday deal. Chicken is very cooked and tastes good. Try their coleslaw which is one their side. I have tried TriniRoti also. It is pretty good with Curry taste. ;) I would give 5 stars as I dint find any negative points over here. Forget to mention they have a wing competition where the guy/girl has to complete 25 hot wings in 5 min i guess. If you win the competition you will get a t shirt :) Anyway its good for the price. Go Chicken Lovers read more

Always out looking for a bomb chicken tender spot no matter how close or far. This place for sure has the best hot, Crispy, seasoned and juicy tenders I have ever had! We did an order of 7 and it was just the right amount we wanted plain to fully experience what the true taste was really like. On the side we had tender sauce which is my fav and hot sauce to do some dipping! They have a whole bunch of stuff on their menus you can add be tenders to a salad, wrap or even get them with cheese and etc. we went before UCF started again so it wasn't packed and our food came out within 10 minutes. They have lots of meal specials which are great for those that are living that student life! Small place but very worth the drive for these tenders and I will definitely be back! read more

I have going to tenders for five years now and I just say this is great food to eat after a long day of exams.

FRIED MAC N CHEESE BITES, Fabulous Fountain Drinks and very quick service. I was greeted with enthusiasm and when i was not sure of what to order she told me her fav and Fried MAC n CHEESE it is!!!! read more

Tenders - American Near Me - Orlando, Florida

The location of this establishment is close to the UCF campus and many of my friends recommended me to try out the food, nonetheless, I made time to go and was not disappointed. The food was very good for the price and the wait time wasn't too long. What could be better about this place is the cleanliness; The tables were not properly wiped down and over the couple times that I have went, there were fruit flies flying around which made it very unpleasant. read more

Bacon Ranch Mac Chicken Bowl is amazing and the loaded fries are also a great choice but for a name like tenders, the tenders aren't exactly the first choice I would go with. read more

what i got to-go (buffalo chicken mac n cheese) didn't look like any of the pictures i saw and definitely was not worth how much i paid for it. wouldn't recommend just because it's so expensive. the employee was really nice though read more

Absolutely love their tenders here! If I had to give a piece of advice..NEVER attempt their wing challenge. It's deadly, like seriously. My friend tried it thinking 10 wings in 5 mins was no big deal. But when it actually came out, the wings weren't regular sized wings....each wing was a big as a KFC drumstick and wing drenched in a crazy fire sauce with ghost chilis and a bunch of other peppers the chef could find in the back. Just touching the wing burnt my finger. But other then that, I freaking love their food and meals! Especially their popcorn chicken! So delicious! read more

I was so hungry and the food was so appetizing I forgot to take a picture! But I had the crispy tenders with a salad. Pretty amazing stuff! The tenders were so satisfying. Definitely visiting again. (Next time I promise I'll take a picture ) read more

Fried chicken is a staple of my diet and this is the last of many I have tried that specialize in chicken tenders. I would have to say I had hoped for more from Tenders. The choices of different ways they can present chicken tenders, sauces, and additional dessert choices make me give them 3 stars, but the quality of the chicken brought them down from a higher potential rating. The chicken was good enough, but I personally like Huey Magoo's the most, followed by Zaxby's. I will have to try them again to make sure I just didn't get a below average batch, but they were not very flavorful or "tender" as the name should suggest. Their saving grace is the option of adding decadence on top of an already terribly unhealthy meal. This comes in the form of a deep fried dessert of your choice. I am a huge fan of deep fried candy bars and cookie dough, but I tried the deep fried twix because I have never seen that offered before. I was happy with my choice. I will say that teh high price is well worth it because they give you a dessert that could be split among two or three people. I could only eat half of it, but was very surprised at how well they microwaved a few days later. They still turned out greasy, hot, and almost crispy after being reheated. Overall I say it is pretty decent. Nice college atmosphere, good food choices, and unique dessert choices. I just wished the chicken blew my mind and I would be coming back weekly. read more

I absolutely love the tenders at this joint! Tender, juicy, tasty - it's the best! I made the mistake of asking for coleslaw, it is dry and has a weird taste, so intead I ask for an extra tender. The Tenders sauce is awesome. The only thing I notice is that sometimes the workers look at me funny but hey I'm not there to do anything wrong, just to get full! read more

Not bad. I had the 5pc chicken tenders with fries and onion rings. The portions are really big and total came to $10.85 with a cola out of the mini fridge. Tenders were tasty, though a tad oily. I had the fried chicken. Maybe try grilled if you're looking for a healthier alternative. Service was pretty basic, the atmosphere somewhat like a Chipotle or Subway. read more

The food in general was just OK. After eating the Baconese Melt my stomach started feeling weird and began getting a headache. I took medicine for both symptoms and it helped but later began feeling nauseous. Service was awkward, the store itself was sketchy looking. I looked over the counter in the back kitchen and the appliances were dirty.. I should have realized this wasn't a good place to eat. I only went because of the reviews online but will never return. read more

Amazing customer service, great staff, mind blowing fooood. Did I mention they're halal? Best part. If you're a foodie like me, this is the place to go. Also, location wise, perfect for UCF students and the central Florida area. I've come here so so many times and I'm never disappointed. Monday - Thursday they have specials that are affordable and delicious. Their tender melts are to die for: fries, chicken tenders and toppings that range from lettuce and tomatoes to buffalo sauce or philly steak. Their food is always tasty and leaves me satisfied and FULL. Service is always quick and the staff is always friendly. Bassim always makes sure customers are happy and satisfied. Their wings and sides are killer! My favorite appetizer there has to be the mozzarella cheese sticks. Don't forget to try the Hollywood melt, it comes with hot cheetos on top, delish. 10/10 would recommend all day every day. read more

Maybe I should stop reviewing these guys. Again four stars. We don't go here to often basically because the prices were a little on the high end. We went this week and they have a new digital menu that is neat. The price options have changed, so if you have more then one serving it takes a few minutes to compute the options. We found the prices better then the last visit. Yet again I did not try the steak sub again and stuck with the chicken. The chicken was good and strips are bigger then Huey's. The fries could have been cooked a minute longer. We liked the food, just takes a minute to decide what you want. they do have a bunch of different sides which is cool. Two things, the crowd is overly loud college students and not much room to stand and order. The second thing is the order taker was on the phone twice during our order, they need someone else answering the phone while shes taking orders up front. The chicken isn't as good as Huey's but is better then Publix and other chicken joints. read more

Delicious and fresh chicken creations that we were very suprised by. One of the most unique choices around UCF for sure. The bread on the sandwiches is amazing! Try the Jerk Chicken with the Jerk Fries - it's outstanding. Cashier was super friendly and nice. He let us know about the menu options and how they are prepared. You can also tell its a family run place, which is great! read more

Tenders is awesome local fast food place with a lot of character and great service. They have a bunch of sauces to try and many sides. I will be going back to try more of the sauces. The best place to relate it to is Zaxby's (which I love) so I will. I would say the Chicken tenders at Tenders is much better than Zaxby's. More tender and juicy than Zaxby's. I only tried there "Tender Sauce" which was not even close to Zaxby's Sauce but Tenders has a lot of other types of sauce that i'm very excited to try. Finally, tenders has much more options to try from with many really good deserts and other options (all being different chicken types). GO TO TENDERS! it is great. read more

Great tenders and fried pickles. The real story here is the service. I placed a to go order for some tenders then saw the fried pickles and placed an additional order for those plus some fries. When I got to my destination I was saddened to see that the fried pickles and fries hadn't been included in the order I was given. I called the location to notify them that I would pick them up on my way back home in a couple hours. They called me back in a few minutes and said they would deliver them to where I was. Absolutely amazing, in my recent memory I can't recall that kind of service. Fantastic, whenever I'm in the Oviedo area, I'll be stopping by! read more

I really liked this place! I've been scared to try it for some reason maybe because I'm pregnant with first trimester nausea. But I got the Zupp $4 meal deal. I think they gave me 5 or 6 tenders even though it was supposed to be 4 and I chose fries as my side which were very good. The garlic bread was also perfect, not too much garlic, soft bread. I really liked the tenders sauce. I'm not Muslim but very cool that meat is halal for people who need that option. I definitely think these compete with Huey magoos or better. read more

The food wasn't terrible, but it wasn't great. The fries are basic and bland, the garlic bread was soggy, and the chicken was dry and over seasoned. We waited for more than 15 minutes for a to go order when it wasn't busy at all. The place didn't have a great customer experience. All of the booths were ripped, and the employees weren't very friendly, so it made the wait not that enjoyable. Wouldn't recommend it. Just about the only plus side is that food is cheap though I still felt like I over paid for sub par food. read more

This place defines the word mediocre. Not horrid, not great, just eh. Fills your stomach.

Super tasty, and not greasy. Their batter is lighter than other chicken tender places, and they have a much larger variety of side items. Fried pickles and Mac and cheese bites are delicious! read more

They have some dang good chicken, and really good sides. The best time to go is on Tuesdays for their deal day, or on Thursdays, but Tuesday is a much better deal overall. The food may take time to cook and get to you, but it's worth it. read more
