-Got the chicken Sandwich and a piece of cornbread.-Chicken quality was terrible but the seasoning and cooking was good. (Maybe I just got a bad batch)-Cornbread was nothing special.-Service was just being ignored.-I waited 45 minutes for some food I was overhyped to eat due to seeing the marketing on social media.-The location it is in is amazing. ?-I won't be coming back unfortunately, there's too many other good places to eat.

That was so good that by the time I ate one piece when I walked across the bridge to the train station. I swear I wanted to turn around and get more even though I had a big box of chicken. I am sitting here fantasizing about eating more right now. Until we meet again Rosemary Chicken until we meet again!!!

This place was highly recommended from some I met ; I went for first dec 10,2023 … the rosemary chicken was so good I cried happy tears . The place is clean and best fried chicken I’ve had in too many years .. Rosemary is a great seasoning … thank you Minnie bell owner… I wish I good eat there daily but I want to keep my slender figure , so every other week you will see me.Charron O.

Expect to wait 40 mins for your order of two chicken legs with a side pickled veggies. If your friends are going to order from other places, Id suggest to have them wait 30mins after you ordered from Minnie Bells. Otherwise your party would have already eaten while you’re still waiting. My brunch is now a normal lunch.

The public market is one of my favorite places to go. I consider it a fancy food court. My husband and I stopped on our way home from a little getaway just to try Minnie's. CRUNCHY, moist chicken is exactly what I was looking for. I did like the Rosemary seasoning but a little less would of been better for me. . My husband thought it was perfect. I was hoping for out of the world mac and cheese, it was just simple but good. Pickled vegetables I enjoyed. I hadn't had kool-aid in years so we had to get some. Took us way back. Writing this review has me craving that crunch !!

Where you go for fried chicken. Food is cafeteria style casual. Service is friendly and fast on the register. Food: fried chicken is what to order. Crust/batter is unique and worth trying once! I ordered fried chicken on Sunday around 3pm. I waited over one hour to get my food. So... bare in mind if you or your child are really hungry, you may not be able to wait that long....

I want to commend the generosity of the owner, fernay. My friend from Alabama and I arrived just as staff were getting ready for a break. I explained to them that my friend was a dear personal friend to fernay's mom, and would be leaving to head home, but wanted to patronize the restaurant. The ladies took away from their break time, prepared our meals, including "red" Kool aid! When we went to pay, the workers informed us there was no charge, at owners request! Would not even take the generous tip being offered. We ate the food, with lots of leftovers and thanked the staff profusely. Fernay, I commend you, your staff, your food and your restaurant!! This is truly a business with heart! Thank you, thank you thank you! Ella Mccoy-Rauls

The service was AMAZING. They were very atentative, nice, friendly, helpful. The service was fast. After I paid, I realized that I wanted some corn bread. So lady helping me gave me the corn bread for free even though I said I would pay for it. The corn bread was moist and tasted like someone great grandma made it. The ambiance was nice. They are located inside of a food market with a lot of different restaurants, but I will go back every time I'm in Emeryville.

I placed the order online to help expedite the order and my time. The gentleman at the counter kind of dismissed me telling me I would get a text when my order was ready. He didn't allow me to explain that I ordered online and come to find out that my order was ready and I was waiting needlessly.Now to the food. The chicken was excellent as usual. The Mac n Cheese and greens were also very good. I bought this for my staff and two 8 piece meals was more than enough food and everything was well received.
