  Horrible. They told me to pull up for 4 minutes and wait for my order to be made. I waited in front of the store once I exited the drive thru, and I waited about 15 minutes and drove around again as I had 2 kids in the back. They told me they gave my order to someone else. Ok so they remade my order and gave it to me. I opened it on the turnpike and they gave me the wrong order!! I cant make this up!

  To describe this place as merely a chicken restaurant is to fundamentally misunderstand what it is trying—and succeeding—to be. This is not processed, uniform, forgettable food meant to be eaten quickly and forgotten just as fast. This is real chicken, prepared with intention, confidence, and an almost reverent attention to detail. From the moment the plate is set down, it is clear that nothing here has been rushed, diluted, or simplified for convenience. The chicken arrives bone-in, substantial, and unapologetically itself. Each piece is enveloped in a beautifully structured crust—crackling, golden, and deeply seasoned—designed not to shatter and disappear, but to hold its own against the richness of the meat beneath. The first bite delivers an audible crunch, followed immediately by an outpouring of flavor that feels earned. The meat is tender without being fragile, juicy without being careless, clinging to the bone in a way that signals careful cooking rather than coincidence. This is chicken that respects its own integrity. The seasoning is layered and confident, penetrating beyond the surface and into the very heart of the meat. There is no bland interior hiding beneath a well-seasoned shell. Instead, each bite carries depth—savory, warm, and richly satisfying. The spices don’t shout; they resonate, lingering on the palate and building gradually, allowing you to fully experience the complexity rather than overwhelming your senses in one aggressive wave. Every meal arrives accompanied by Hawaiian bread, a constant presence that feels almost ceremonial in its reliability. Soft, warm, and gently sweet, it provides the perfect counterbalance to the richness of the chicken. The bread isn’t there to distract—it’s there to support. It soaks up sauces and juices with ease, becoming richer and more indulgent with every swipe across the plate. By the end of the meal, it feels less like a side and more like an essential ritual, one you would miss immediately if it were absent. The sauces elevate the experience into something truly indulgent. They are complex, glossy, and meticulously balanced, each offering its own distinct personality while remaining deeply complementary to the chicken. Some lean into sweetness before yielding to a slow, satisfying heat; others embrace savory depth, clinging to the chicken and enhancing its natural richness. They invite experimentation, encouraging you to mix, match, and discover new combinations, until dipping becomes less of a choice and more of an instinct. And then there is the rice—humble in concept, yet executed with such care that it becomes indispensable. Perfectly cooked, never mushy, never dry, it absorbs the drippings, the spices, and the sauces, quietly transforming into something greater than the sum of its parts. It grounds the meal, offering warmth and balance, providing a moment of calm between bites of boldness. It is comfort in its purest form, and it is treated here with the respect it deserves. What makes this place exceptional is not just the quality of each individual component, but the way they exist together in deliberate harmony. The chicken commands attention, the bread softens the intensity, the sauces deepen the flavor, and the rice anchors the entire experience. Nothing feels excessive. Nothing feels forgotten. Every element has purpose. By the time the meal is finished, you’re left with a profound sense of satisfaction—the kind that settles in slowly, quietly, and completely. This is not food you rush through. This is food that demands you slow down, engage, and appreciate what’s been placed in front of you. It leaves an impression not just on your appetite, but on your standards. This is not a place you casually recommend. This is a place you insist on. Once you’ve eaten chicken like this, everything else feels like a compromise. First bite— oh my god, second bite— oh hi god. Also sally was the best.and I mean the best employee there always greeted me with a smile, I love her.
