Ali's Chicken & Waffles offers a flavorful and unique experience. The chicken is tender, seasoned, and crunchy, with some reviewers calling it the best chicken they’ve ever had. The waffles are fluffy and served with light coconut syrup that many say takes the dish to a whole new level. The menu includes the popular Combo #1, which features 2 pieces of chicken and a waffle, though some find the waffle slightly soggy. The restaurant shares space with a donut shop, making it a small shop with limited seating, so many customers opt for takeout. The staff is friendly, and the food is cooked to order, making it a good spot for those who appreciate local restaurants that prioritize quality. The seasoned fries are also highly recommended and are said to top any fast food restaurant. Despite parking being a bit challenging due to its busy location, visitors suggest calling ahead if in a rush. Overall, Ali's Chicken & Waffles is a must-visit for fans of flavorful chicken and fluffy waffles, with some noting it as a hidden gem in the city.
