Buffalo Chicken Fry

I ordered buffalo chicken fries. There was barely any chicken in it (maybe half a chicken strip). And it was DRENCHED in sauce. To the point of not even being enjoyable. The restaurant was a mess and lemonade machines were down but the entire drink counter was soaking wet. Service was also meh. Cashier barely spoke a word. Definitely won't be back. There's a better location in River Park.

Great chicken finger and mac n cheese. First time here. The Jamaican jerk sauce is very good.

Really wanted to like this place. Chicken is super dry for the boneless wings, it's hard to chew. Chicken tenders are also Hard to chew and a bit on the dry side. The side dishes were meh. Overall disappointed. Our first time trying it and wasn't a fan after spending $42 on this.

Wouldn't even give them a star there restrooms where disgusting food was way overpriced the guy in the " pink " shirt was absolutely ridiculous I paid 70 for three meals and a Mac and cheese I also ordered a chicken sandwich and never received it. They then stated what can we " do " about it I clearly paid it and it was on the screen. I got a refund for two Mac and cheese because they didn't have any and this was at 12:00. The girl at the register needs to be trained again and that " manager " needs to learn some manners. No hairnets , no gloves unsanitary. Also had a hair in my food

Chicken 5 Fingers with the Best Creamy Parmesan Dip

Best Place to get Chicken in the Fresno Area. Service is AMAZING and super genuine. Welcoming feeling and the place is clean.

The staff was nice and helpful, but the food has gone down hill. Ordered 12 piece. Super dry. Chicken sandwiches lacked texture. Although there was a price increase, but 2 chicken sandwiches (one was a combo) and a 12 piece costing $40+ is steep. Won't be coming back for awhile.

This place was a beautiful hidden find in Fresno. The buffalo chicken fries were a good balance of crunchiness without the sauce making the fries soggy. The buffalo sauce was also extremely deliciousness. In addition, the fried pickles were super tasty. The batter itself was full of flavor and complimented the pickles beautifully. The crunch of the pickle was perfect to each bite. The chicken tenders was juicy and not overpowered by batter like most other spots. Like the pickles, the batter was well seasoned as well and complimented the chicken. We paired it with the Asian Sesame dipping sauce and it was jam packed with flavor. The chicken sandwich paired with the mango habanero sauce was a great choice, the chicken was juicy, the bun was fresh and it was assembled really well. Overall the food was fantastic and all you chicken lovers out there will NOT be disappointed.

Save yourself the headache and go to the Fulton location. The workers here seem upset, also just hope they answer the phone if you call.

We had gift cards for that specific Chicken Shack. They refused to honor them, saying they had a new owner and they were no longer valid.

I paid $8 for fries to receive a kids portion smh. Every time I order a desert they always forget to place it in the bag. I make sure to order 1 hour ahead because they take sooo long The service is horrible they are always so rude and look like they hate their job pretty sure this isn't a corporation. I rather make a drive to the other locations.

Usually get a boneless chicken combo and upgrade to a bigger size soda cup. Love their Louisiana rub flavor. I like to order atomic as well but noticed it's not as spicy as when I first had it in TX. Garlic parm, lemon pepper and mango habanero is also the other flavors I've tried and enjoyed. I always order online and pick up. Food comes out on time, not late. Chicken is nice, hot & flavorful. I only hate that sometimes the fries get cold fast. The ranch is one of the best ranches I had. I think everyone agrees lol.. love that they have that Coca Cola freestyle machine so u can customize your drinks with different flavors. The staff is usually nice and cheerful or there to help when they see u just standing there they will ask have you been helped yet? Can't say much about the restroom cus I haven't used it and the tables since I don't dine in. The place can get busy so I 'do suggest ordering online and picking up not unless u plan to eat there.

Mid. It's been…read moreyears since my last visit and that last visit, I was very generous with my review. Especially since it was a rare occasion of getting great service. That's kind of why I never really cared to come back. Service was not consistent and the place is unbearably loud (yes, I know it's a sports bar)... very hard to have a decent conversation here without shouting. We sat in the bar area, Saturday, which we only went because someone misinformed him over the phone that they would be showing a boxing fight he was interested in... come to find out, they don't show boxing matches. We had already ordered our food/drinks before we found out so it was too late to go elsewhere. It was packed in there but there were two available tables for us to choose from and they did clean it off for us fairly quickly so we did appreciate that. Our guy got our drink orders right away, received it not too long after. Took a while before he got our food orders and even longer for the food to come out. Once the food did come out, he asked if we needed anything else, my man asked for another beer... apparently he didn't remember asking because he came back probably 15-20mins later asking if we needed anything else. My bf has more patience than me because he just told him another beer again only to wait probably another 10-15 minutes or so before finally getting it. Our wings were good... never had a problem with their wings. We got the Jammin' Jalapeños. The nachos... meh. Looks nice-ish upon receiving but there's really nothing to these Nachos and that was disappointing. A bunch of chips with only toppings/cheese/cream on the top layer. I should've taken a picture of what we didn't finish-- which was a lot. Either their quality went down or my taste just got more advanced. Oh, and my margarita was by far one of my least favorites I've had in a very long while... watered down, not much flavor (for a Strawberry marg), and just didn't taste like a margarita. I've had my fair share of margs, I'm very qualified to judge. Anyway, if it weren't for their wings-- I'd probably never think to come back... I'd be good with settling for getting them to go. If anything, I'd only go for a social gathering but even then-- there are better options. K, bye.

Walked in and took a long time to get helped. I was just there to pick up and order. Tried the…read moresweet bbq wings and they were kinda gross. I would like to try other things but I also don't want to waste the money if they aren't. It was also overly loud inside.
