“The fried chicken sandwich and tater tot’s are wonderful.

Went here off a recommendation of my son who works close by. What a find. The food is freshly made to order and the chicken patty is deliciously unique. Not a raising canes, not a chick fil a. It’s makes its own name with a seasoned breaded crispy batter that is sliced into strips. Almost like a chicken fried steak.

The chicken goes really well with the mayo and slaw so that is how we ordered it. And would do it again.

Happy hour all day on the weekend so make sure to get a loaded tator tot (nacho cheese, bacon, and green onions on top).

All in a, a fun spot to pop in and get some food. Dining area is limited, but there is also seating out front.“

There’s really only tables for up to 2 people. For reference, I ordered The Original. The KMG sauce makes all the difference. Overall, very positive experience!“

Cali Cluckwich

“Four stars because they clucked up one of the things we ordered. The Cali Cluckwich came with no tempeh bacon or avocado added on, and we didn't have time to get it fixed because we were crunched for time on a work lunch break. Without the cali ingredients added, it was a plain old classic cluckwich. Other than that, taste-wise the food was good. Also, I've always loved the customer service at the San Francisco location, the employees are always so happy and friendly. Hunny Hickory TenderClucks were delicious. I chose all fries, no slaw, and it might have been the largest side of fries I've ever got at a restaurant. Updated from previous review on 2023-08-07“

The brussel sprouts were awesome, however I would have asked to have them put the topping on the side, it was a little much. Overall not bad. The price was right The service was very friendly.“

The standout, however, is the mashed potatoes technically perfect and a must-order. For anyone prioritizing high-performance nutrition and transparent ingredients, this spot is a strategic choice in the neighborhood. Efficient, healthy, and highly recommended.“

Would MORE than recommend this for lunch and dinner!“

“Decent Fried Chicken Sando, dipped in paprika-heavy Nashville Hot Chicken style sauce. Though tasty, the chicken subsequently looses its crunch. Curly Fries are your standard, good for dipping in ranch and buffalo dressing.

Good when in the mood for some stick-to-your-ribs grub in Hayes Valley.“

“In fact, the place is more for takeout. However, there are 3 tables outside where you can stop by and eat there.

The food is very light and tasty. They have a medium version if you think the medium version is too much food.

They also serve chicken broth as a side dish.

It was great for me because I just wanted something light and nutritious.

The girls provided great service since I didn't know all the dishes at the restaurant, so The Marina was a good option.“

“so good! Much better than I imagined! The staff didn't seem to handle it well when it got busy, they were incredibly slow at first, I wasn't thrilled, but it was definitely worth the wait. Very nice people and very good food, although if we're honest I would probably avoid the rice bowls as they are a bit torn. Get the tacos and I'll have to try the BBQ chips, but I think they'll be delicious“
