The Chicken is a highly praised restaurant that has consistently impressed its customers with its exceptional food and service. The restaurant offers a wide variety of delectable dishes, including chicken sandwiches, wings, chicken and waffles, pizza, and Nashville hot chicken sliders, all of which are praised for their outstanding quality and flavor. According to recent reviews, customers have enjoyed the broasted wing special and cheese curds, which come in large portions. The chicken was great, described as crispy and juicy with good sauce and breading, clearly hand made and not frozen. Recent guests enjoyed the bang bang taco and slider, and noted the Nashville hot chicken sliders had heat but not a lot. The restaurant's staff is commended for their attentiveness and the speed at which they serve the food, contributing to a fun atmosphere. Guests have particularly enjoyed the great selection of local craft beers and the refreshing Iowa mules, noted for being perfectly balanced in strength and flavor. The restaurant has hot fresh food and delicious fried chicken entrees. A nice outdoor patio is available. The only draw back mentioned was way too many flies. Overall, The Chicken is a must-visit establishment for anyone seeking an exceptional dining experience with a focus on juicy, flavorful chicken dishes.
