    Fried chicken sandwiches are good, I think they could use a rad more salt to help bring out the flavors more. The sauces are good, especially the herb mayo I believe, I know it was herb something. Batter is light and crispy. If you like tomatoes, I suggest the chicken sandwiches with tomato in it as it helps balance against the fried element of the chicken. It’s not oily. I personally think they could add more sauce in the sandwich, but that’s not going to be everyone’s cup of tea, but the sauce really helped round out the sandwich more by giving it the flavor it needed. Again, I do think it could use a touch more salt, but I do believe others may find it just right. Of course you can purchase sauce on the side as well. They need a sign by the toilet that says to press and hold to flush, I found it wasn’t flushed and it was a man who walked out, which, I’m sorry, but I anticipated to find something if using the bathroom after a man. He did not flush at all…. I appreciate this new location as the original one is in an area that isn’t ideal for some, especially if you’re a woman, it could feel a bit unsafe. The interior isn’t too bad, it’s missing something to elevate the vibe more, but I wasn’t too fixated on that detail. Cashier appeared friendly and communicative, I could see the lady making the food working hard too.

    Best chicken sandwich in town. We got the grilled chicken sandwich, spicy sandwich and quesadilla. The Ali sauce is great for dipping your quesadilla

    The location is a little hole in the wall, its not particularly inviting. However, the food, the service and the workers are excellent! Takeout orders recommended.
