I came across this spot while on a morning stroll around Las Vegas, and let me just say--it did not disappoint at all! The chicken was so juicy, tender, and packed with flavor, not dry one bit. You can really tell they know what they're doing. The katsu sandwich is also such a great addition to the menu--seriously packed with flavor and just hits the spot. I could honestly eat this for days, it was that good. Definitely a place I'll be coming back to the next time I'm in Vegas! read more

Had the Firebird and hand-cut fries while in Vegas for WrestleMania. Food took a while even for one person so keep wait times in mind but enjoyed the food. The fries were hot and crispy and the sandwich was tasty though I would've liked the chicken cooked just a tad longer - personal preference but was juicy. There are also outdoor tables facing The Strip for a cool view. read more

Neat sports bar connected to the Park MGM. The wife ordered the Little Pecker 3 fire-tossed tenders, 4 biscuits, hand cut fries, honey butter, fountain drink and I ordered the All-American Chick two chicken patties, crispy bacon, griddled mustardy onions, american cheese, b&b pickles, savory sauce, shredded iceberg, potato bun. This is a walk up order sit down when your box goes off you go pick up your order! Serve yourself drinks unless you order from the bar where you pick that up also. So no table service! Food was hot and delicious! I enjoyed the chicken burger Patties that are grilled (not the typical deep fried breaded patty). Lots of TVs and interesting decor! Wasn't a real long wait but it's fast food made to order! Chicken tenders were a little thick with breading! Overall a pleasant experience. read more

This place is fantastic for chicken. The best chicken sandwich I've had. The prices are fair to be on the strip too. I got the firebird sandwich. Not as spicy as I wanted but I understand why. Service was quick and easy. Very nice host/cashier person that explained the whole menu to me because it was my first time. Very relaxing environment with a nice theme. Nice bar too. Hats off to Chef Blais. I understand why you won Next Level Chef over Gordon Ramsay. Ramsay's burger spot was very terrible. The student has become the master. Last note, my gf, who is black, said, "Blais is invited to all my cookouts," after eating the chicken tenders. That is a real compliment. read more

Order-at-the-kiosk setup, no table service. Loud, a little chaotic, but it works--grab your puck and pick up your food when it's ready. Got the Cali Drip and a White Claw. This thing is basically a Cali burrito turned into a panini--pollo asado, fries, bacon, chipotle-bacon mayo, pickled onions, jalapeños, and melted Oaxacan cheese all pressed into a torta roll. It's rich, messy, and seriously good. Couldn't finish it (GLP wins again), but no complaints--what I did eat was worth it. read more

The food there is AMAZING!!! Does not disappoint. I've returned several times when I'm in Vegas, it's my go to lunch spot. The fries alone are probably the best I've ever had :) ANYWHERE. And the biscuits OMG, melt in my mouth. Definitely recommend this place read more

The chicken was juicy and flavorful. Most of the fries were good, but some were over fried where there was no potato left. It was like biting into crispy oil. The cashier was friendly and it took a while for the food to be ready. It's open late with a casual lively atmosphere. It's easy access from the street outside of Park MGM. read more

3.5/5 Casual and quick spot. Stopped in on our trip to Vegas for a quick dinner. Ordering process was a bit confusing - bar versus counter vs machine and happy hour stuff had to be order at counter... anyways ordered food and although it wasn't too busy it took longer than expected to come out. I'm not complaining though! Food was good and very filling. Chicken was tender and flavorful. Like most Vegas establishments, expect to pay a pretty penny. Vibes were good. This is a good place to watch sports. Patio is chill. read more

My sister wanted to try this place out since she knows my love for fried chicken. The staff was great, however, the fried chicken was super crispy, batter is super thick and salty. The thickest I have ever ate, the inside was super hot and juicy. I never reject fried chicken, even if it's from the supermarket or gas station but this was not good at all. The fire sauce was just basic. The fries and biscuit is just okay. There were plenty of space to sit, inside and outside. read more

This was my second time coming to Crack Shack, and its still fire! They've added a lot more items to the menu since my last visit, which is cool but the spicy chicken is definitely the go-to! It's fried in their Fire Sauce and comes out super crispy with just the right amount of heat and flavor. The pickles are also a plus to the meal. The coleslaw salad was also surprisingly good. It's not too heavy or overly creamy like some places -- it's light, balanced, and pairs really well with the chicken. Shoutout to Ken for the great service. He was really helpful, attentive, and made sure everything came out right. The quality of service definitely stood out and made the experience even better. read more

Great experience all around! They have lots of outside seating and inside seating of course. They have a bar inside and they are very courteous. The service was excellent-friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The food was delicious and came out quickly. Chicken is battered thick and flavorful. The inside is moist and crunchy on the outside. You can select from any of the self-serve sauces which is nice. My wife tried their salads and they were delicious, very filling. For the price, they deliver, we were not able to finish our meals, we were more than pleasantly surprised. Also! They have a great soda brand with some good flavors. Love it! This was a pretty solid experience and the food was pretty good. Perfect spot for good eats, good vibes, and catching a big game. We definitely recommend it! read more

Breakfast for 2 came to around $33 total. We had a breakfast burrito and the breakfast sandwich. They were tasty and were delicious. The wait time was 10-15 min. This would be a great place to watch football as they have two big screens which was awesome on Sunday morning. A few problems with this place. They charged $4 for coffee when the sign said $3. Personally, I believe you need to honor the advertised price on your signage until you get new ones with the new price. The cashier told us, but still felt like it should be $3. We didn't argue and paid the extra $1. read more

I was not crazy about the seasoning which is not the places fault or responsibility to cater to each individual. That being said the place is clean, definitely cool and a place that many would love. Atmosphere and food quality was great. The spice was just not for me. read more

Good food and reasonable prices for it being on the Strip, however, beware if you have a larger group as you may have to wait a while to get your food! I recommend the firebird sandwich or their fried chicken! Definitely can't go wrong with those! Their fries are also pretty good too! read more

We tried the chicken oysters, the half bird, mini biscuits, and hand-cut fries and everything was really good. The chicken oysters were perfectly battered and full of flavor, and the half bird was just as tasty it was juicy, well-seasoned, and cooked just right. The standout for me was the mini biscuits with honey butter. The biscuits were soft, buttery, and downright addictive. The hand-cut fries were fresh and crispy, the perfect side to round out the meal. The restaurant itself was clean with a fun, laid back vibe, and the staff was cool, friendly, and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Overall, great food with bold flavors done right. I'd absolutely come back. read more

My first stop when I got to Vegas was The Crack Shack. It was a smart layout with a nice open air view of the strip. The bartender was friendly & attentive. The menu looked great & I think the only mistake I made was ordering the wrong thing of the menu. I wanted a chicken sandwich & saw All American Chicken Burger. It was a chicken burger & not a chicken sandwich which was my mistake. I ate it anyway, it was like a Big Mac version of a chicken burger, not bad, not great but it repeated on me for sometime. I think if I read the menu better & ordered a proper chicken sandwich I'd be a happy customer. I can't give a place 4 stars based on what I ate but I'll give it another try next year! read more

We were staying on the Strip. So nice to be within walking distance to everything. We strolled around looking for breakfast options. We went to Crack Shack in Pacific Beach in San Diego for lunch earlier this year. We loved it there so we came in here with good memories. You can order at the counter or at the kiosk. We ordered on the kiosk. Super easy! It's a fun environment with a huge tv inside. And of course, this being Vegas, there was a bar as well. You sit wherever you'd like and wait for your order to be called. My coffee was ready quickly. No refills, half & half were the small plastic containers in the fridge where I had to ask for them. Only half and half, no low fat milk, not alt milk. Only sweeteners were placed where I can access them. *note that coffee is listed as $3 on the menu in the wall but on the kiosk, it's $4. ‍ We sat down and the food came pretty quickly. I ordered biscuits and gravy - the biscuits weren't very good. They were no better than the canned pillsbury biscuits from the can. The gravy was fine but no trace of maple-chicken sausage. I did see some small crumbles in the gravy but it didn't have any flavor. The egg was perfectly cooked sunny side up! The fresh chives was a nice touch! My husband liked the chicken chorizo burrito. All in all, it was just okay. We were fed for $35. I likely won't return for breakfast. read more

Love me a spicy chicken sandwich and this one was so tasty. Had the firebird and fries. I was snacking on fries while waiting for the food for the rest of my party to come out and they were delicious, that crack spice is amazing whatever it is. Ate the entire chicken sandwich. Perfect bun and chicken. Inside was nice and clean, some large tables in the back with benches. Tried to bus our trays and a server took them from us and thanked us and said she'd clean them which was nice. read more

The Crack Shack - Firebird and large fry - Chicken Shop Near Me - Las Vegas, Nevada

Went for dinner on a Sunday before a show. There were two ways to order: one with a kiosk, another with an actual human. The people in front of us were super confused and held up the line between both. I opted to order through the kiosk. Super straight forward. However, if you order a soda through the kiosk, you either have to ask the clerk at the front (who will most likely be busy taking orders) or wait for your order to be called to get your cup. They keep the lids at the front, so be sure to ask for one on the way out. We waited quite a bit for our food and the place wasn't that busy. The food came out pretty fresh and good. I ordered a side salad and it was enough to be considered an entree. It was a good deal. I also order the chicken fingers combos, and it was delish. Overall, good experience. Lots of TVs around to watch any game you want. And lots of booths and tables to choose from. The wait staff was very attentive and cleared our plates as soon as we were done. The bathrooms are kind of cramped, but it's fine. Thanks! read more

Tasty affordable option on the strip. I had binged on a rich meal the night before and was looking for a casual lunch spot that had salad options and Crack Shack pulled up. It's the last place you'd go to for vegetables but it does have several salad options. However, once I was physically there, I ended up being tempted by the other less healthy items. Service was friendly and helped me decide between all the different things I wanted to try. I ended up with the chicken oysters (basically dark meat chicken nuggets), hand cut fries, and the classic slaw. Everything was tasty. The chicken and fries were nicely fried, but quite salty so I was pretty thirsty after a while. I asked for light mayo on the slaw and it was still a little heavier dressed than I like, but it satisfied the veggie craving. I'd come back the next time I'm on the strip. read more

Address on Yelp was incorrect and it took us a while to find the place. We were walking in circles. The place is located outside of Eataly across from the target and Ross. The a place had a large wall of TV playing the game, bar in the middle, and plenty of seats around. We came here for lunch on Saturday and had no issue with tables. We ordered the firebird burger -not tossed in the fire sauce. The chicken was juicy and sauce was good but the extra fried onions inside made it feel extra heavy. (6.5/10) this was about $15.50? The fries were saucey and not too crispy which is how I like. Flavor was good (7/10) this was about $15 We also got the mini biscuits with miso butter. They were a little dry at the end but good (7/10) this was about $7.50 Overall the restaurant was good but after a few bites the food started feeling too heavy for me. read more

Best french fries I've ever eaten. Let me say again - best french fries I've ever eaten.

I wish I could give a higher rating because the service was great, but unfortunately, the food was a letdown. The fries were oily and tasted old, which was a poor start. Even more bizarre, they apparently do not serve chicken wings on Fridays for some odd, unexplained reason, which really limited my options. The chicken tenders were average at best, nothing special to justify a return visit. With great service, it's a shame the main dishes didn't measure up. I wouldn't recommend it based on the food quality. read more

First stop in Vegas after landing and we were hungry. This viral chicken spot had large chicken sandwiches that were supposed to be some of the best in Sin City and it did not disappoint. The chicken was thick, juicy and crunchy. The heat had just enough kick to bring the heat but also keep it enjoyable. The poutine was also massive and was loaded with chicken and queso. While a bit salty, the food was really good and would love to try some of their other sandwiches!

If you want a hearty meal that has homestyle fried chicken without a huge price then you have to try this place. We ordered a half bird that included a thigh, wing, drumstick, and a breast cut in half for 5 pieces in total. It was enough for 2 people. We also ordered slaw and biscuits. Everything was fresh, the pieces were large, and the fried chicken was crispy. The service was good and the ambiance is casual. We left full and still had leftovers. read more

For strip food and for the price the food was okay but it could've been better. The fries were the best part. They were crispy but a little soggy and they were actually seasoned! The chicken fingers were too soft. It seemed like they battered them and put them in the oven, and the sweet heat sauce was not heat at all. It was sweet but barely there. The cookies could've been much more tastier, if it weren't for the fact that they were cooked pretty hard. It seems like they need to switch the cooking times of the tenders and cookies lol. I don't think I'd be back but it wasn't too bad of an experience. read more

I was excited to try this place because I've heard so much about it. The service was fantastic and the vibe all around was great however I was extremely disappointed in the food. I ordered the Cali drip and don pastor fries. Cali drip is pollo asado, fries, chipotle-bacon mayo, pickled onions and jalapeños, melty oaxacan queso, crunchy torta. I was not a fan of this sandwich. It was very dry, and it didn't seem like the elements worked well together. The sandwich was panini pressed and since it had pickled onions, they tasted like they were cooked which made them warm pickled onions and I wasn't a fan. The sandwich is missing some kind of saucier element, maybe some kind of cilantro ranch but the bacon chipotle mayo also had a weird flavor that I wasn't a fan of. Don pastor fries: the fried themselves were crispy and the avocado crema and pineapples was also yummy but the pastor sauce just tastes like cooked chili peppers and not very flavorful. My friend got some chicken nuggets and their firebird, I tried both. The breading on nuggets was a little thick and hard to bite into and the sandwich was just spice, no flavor. I unfortunately would not return and can't say that I would recommend this place. read more

It's a little insane that I had one of the best chicken sandwiches of my life at a place on the strip that was not even overpriced. Juicy, bursting with flavor, amazing texture, and ridiculously cheap for what you get. Plenty of seating, you order at the kiosk, and they give you a buzzer. The floor manager was asking everyone around and told me about their brining process, the dry rub and local bread - it's not often you see a fried chicken shop employee passionate about their product. I couldn't get enough of this. read more

I came here twice in one weekend and I'm actually a little torn how to rate this. My first experience was really positive. I came for dinner, ordered the firebird chicken sandwich and a side of fries. Both were delicious - the firebird wasn't overly spicy as I feared it might be, and the fries were super flavorful. Obviously I liked it enough to come back another time and we came back for breakfast. I ordered the chilaquiles and they were awful. Dry, lacking flavor and just overall disappointing. Honestly, they shouldn't even be offered as an option, that's how bad they are. The service was quick and attentive both times I went so I'm rating a little higher because of that (I'd rate a 3.5 if I could because of the second food experience). read more

I stayed at the Park MGM earlier this year and looked into their food options. One that appealed to me was this restaurant. I finally got to try this on the last day of my stay. It was just got breakfast though so I was a little disappointed at the time because they are more known for lunch/dinner type foods. But my disappointment was unfounded because the breakfast was so delicious! I got the bae sandwich and all of the ingredients were exactly what you want in a breakfast sandwich and worked perfectly together. The bun was soft and delicious. My husband got the LV scramble. And I cannot adequately express to you how good this bowl was. Like the Bay sandwich, everything worked perfectly together. The fries were so good. The eggs were cooked perfectly. The bacon was thick and tasty. The cheddar works so well with everything and the green onions are just the perfect finishing touch. I want to make this dish at home, but I don't think I can do it justice. I know it's crazy because the ingredients are so common and simple but they just do such a good job with this. When I go back to Vegas, if at all possible, I will come here again for breakfast and hopefully lunch or dinner this time. read more

This had to have been the worst breakfast I've ever had. The wait time was an extra 15 minutes late. The gravy was cold, did not have any sausage in it, watery, and a terrible flavor. The eggs were hardly scrambled, half runny, and luke warm. The biscuit was so dry and tasteless. It seemed more like a hamburger bun they tried to pass off as a biscuit. The entire meal was just awful and unfortunately inedible. The man bringing out the food was nice to customers but frequently complained about working there, loudly. read more

Crack Shack is the place I go to when I'm on the south end of the strip. The service is excellent and the menu has lots of options so you can find something that satisfies your preference. On today's visit, I went with one of my favorite dishes, the Mexican Poutine and a kids meal with chicken nuggets. They were quite busy so the food took awhile to come out but it was fine since we played corn hole on the patio while waiting. The patio had tons of misters so it was a nice area to be in on a hot summer day. The Mexican Poutine is consistently good every time I order it. It's quite filling and a huge portion so I always have leftovers to take home. The kids meal is a good size and the nuggets are huge so it's a filling meal for a kid. It's also served with a giant chocolate chip cookie. I was disappointed to see on this visit that they removed the sauce bar and now only have 4 sauce options. The nuggets came with one sauce and additional sauces are charged to your check. I'll still be back in the future to try more menu items. read more

I've been here twice now and each time is better than the last! I went here recently with my bf, he got the Firebird and I got the Little Pecker. Although we came in during a time when their internet was down, the service and food did not disappoint. The Firebird was the best fried chicken Sandwhich I've ever had; packed full of flavor, crunch, and acidity from the pickles to balance everything out. The Little Pecker was even more amazing! The biscuits were gone within 3 minutes and the tenders even faster. Love everything about this place and can't wait to visit a 3rd time! read more

I normally don't go downtown to eat as some of the restaurants down there have lost their aura. Was walking to grab some quick fast food and saw this place. As a big fan of chicken sandwiches, I had to give there's a try. Glad I did cause my sandwich was amazing! They use real pieces of chicken. My sandwich had dark meat which I loved. They also have lots of different options when it comes to sandwiches and fried chicken. The place has nice vibe with open seating. I could see how it might be hard to find a place to sit when it's busy. There's also a full bar. Would have been 5 stars but the staff wasn't that friendly as to be expected downtown. read more

This is one of my favorite spots to go to when I'm in Vegas. My go to order is the half bird tossed in sweet heat. The flavor is packed with sweet umami and is similar to Korean fried chicken. The chicken is always so tender and juicy, never dry, even the breast meat. Although throughout the years they started to over batter the chicken a bit. The fries are tossed in schmaltz & crack spice and is also a must order. Not vegetarian for you non-meat eaters. Another thing I want to highlight is the chicken Oyster which has a pickle flavor to it and is quite tasty. read more

I'm vacillating between a 3 or a 4. Don't get me wrong, the food and drink were all good, but I probably won't return for "food for the masses". Here's what I ordered: Don Pastor Fries - tasty, but where is the chicken Spicy Chicken Sliders - I envisioned a crunchy outer coating, but this was not the case, served on a biscuit Baja Chopped Salad - not truly chopped as there were some big pieces of lettuce, what makes this special is the marinated red onions of which there are a lot of Las Vegas Lager - lots of flavor Ordering was easy, either keypad or in person. Pick up food at the counter where there are to go boxes and utensils, but I had to wait longer than usual for the food For your viewing pleasure, there are three TVs. The inside and outside dining areas are spacious and good for groups. read more
