I was surprised there were only chicken sandwiches and tenders. No fried pieces of chicken! The drive through was very slow. The Chicken had way too much pepper on it. The boy at the window was kind, smiled and said thank you.

Charlottes Kitchen is awesome. I ordered the Crab Rangoon and French fries. Both were great. However, I especially liked the fries. The coating and/or the oil you cook them in is excellent. Is there honey in the coating? So good!

$6.00 for a microwave Mac and cheese is outrageously expensive. Service was terrible. Tried it. Quickly realized this place is not a good choice.

I have tried almost everything on the menu and it never disappoints! Current obsession is the char’s bowl with fries. From friendly staff to great food you really can’t pick a better spot for lunch or dinner. Highly recommend the cheese curds as well. Probably my favorite curds to get anywhere!!

We were in town and met friends here. Clean, friendly atmosphere, and they have games you can play at your table. Ordered Chars bowl, optes for fries as the base. Food came out quickly. It was hot and delicious! Will be back!

Went to this place with my girlfriend yesterday. Had some high hopes because I’ve been to similar establishments in other states. Particularly places that sell the Nashville hot chicken sandwhich.

I ordered Mac and cheese and the Nashville hot

One thing places always struggle with is balance on these sandwiches. I was left with a lot of breading left over. The sandwhich was decent but left some things to be desired. Don’t skimp out on the chicken, it’s in your name. If you’re going to use a bun that’s twice the size of the chicken, you’d better use more chicken to compensate. Or just do the smart thing and use a smaller bun. Then people won’t feel cheated when they spend money and end up with a handful of bread at the end. I should preface that by saying balance is absolutely possible. If you’re ever in the Wisconsin dells area, there’s a place called Rockin Chicken that nails it every time.

The other big thing was the chicken was very, very salty. To the point where you don’t taste chicken in some places, only salt.

My girl ordered the tenders, I tried them, it was especially prevalent on those.

Mac and cheese was kind of mid, I’m not a fan of receiving my food in cheap plastic containers. It makes me nervous that it’s been in a microwave or something, and if it’s warmed up in plastic, that’s actual poison that can leach into your food. Just because we’re going out to a fried chicken place doesn't mean people don’t care what goes into their bodies most of the time. When they eat elsewhere the places they’re eating at don’t serve food like that.

The noodles felt undercooked. I probably only ate 3 bites out of it.

And you’re probably charging a bit too much. 28$ felt a bit steep. That’s like a third of my weekly grocery bill, plus you’re asking for a tip after? Either the food better be perfect, or you lower the price. It’s that simple, and my food was far from perfect. Mind you, I can pay 5$ more for a full service restaurant and my woman counts that as a date night.

I’ll probably be back again, I’m all for second chances, but if it’s the same I probably won’t be after that.
