“Chic fil a typically has great customer service but wanted to callout my encounter with Bridget, one of the team members who was stationed at the drive through. She was incredibly sweet during our short exchange and honestly made my day. She deserves a bonus or raise or something@ The food was also good quality compared to the location closer to my house. I'd return here“

The woman working the window remade it with less vanilla and shake base, which was very nice of her! I wish I got her name but I hope her team reads this shout out anyway!“

“Great people. Great food. So far so good. I’ll definitely be back. The cook has good customer service skills and he seems to really care for people and his work. Everything in the kitchen area that you could see looks clean. Even the deep fryers are well kept. The perch was fried to perfection. Crunchy and still moist just how I like it. Fries were fried to perfection as well. Can’t make this stuff up. Thank you!!“

“Love this place - the chicken is always good. BUT if I order wings and ask for “mild sauce on the side” I only want mild sauce. I ordered 8 wings with mild sauce on the side and got 1 cup of mild sauce and 1 cup of hot sauce - I never asked for hot sauce so now I have 8 wings with 1 cup of sauce.“

“The catfish was fresh, hot, cooked to perfection and delicious, great customer service!! 😋 I will be returning.👍🏽
The 5 star reviews drew me to this location. I had to drive a distance, but it was worth the trip. all other shark locations near me are horrible (2 to be exact)“

“I had an awesome experience here! The people were super friendly, the food was great, the best Mexican food in the area. I would definitely recommend to family and friends or anyone in general. It's a lovely experience, and i do want to add that the decorations are beautiful. Really makes you feel safe and comfortable as you're enjoying your meal with some nice coffee.“

“The chicken is always fried and seasoned to perfection. However i have found that even though i order then with lemon pepper when i open the container there's no sign of lemon pepper.

This could be due to the quality of lemon pepper they use but not only do i not see it visually i don't taste it either which sucks bc all you have to say is we don't do that. Because i don't see you forgetting every single time.

I haven't tried anything outside of their chicken and perch and bottled drinks.

Staff are nice nothing exceptional and nothing negative.“

“Grabbed this to go on a whim and really enjoyed what I had. Ordered medium and it was a good spice level, but if you are sensative to spice, I would opt for the mild as it was hotter than I expected. Their portions are great for the price too. Was worried when I saw waffel fries because you usually only get a handful, but their bag was loaded. Will be coming back for sure.“

“I have had literally everything they cook in this store... the food was wonderful very nice customer service from the cooks to the cashier's I highly recommend this location and they have nice deals u can't beat the prices 😀 ❤️“

“First time eating here. It was absolutely delicious. A huge sandwich! Chicken very tender and juicy. Great flavor. I wish there was more coleslaw on the sandwich, but that’s just me. I don’t like potatoes but these fries are great crispy and good flavor. Everything is freshly cooked . Definitely 5 star“

“We ordered 75 pieces of chicken for a holiday event. Priced great! We had nothing but complements all night on how good the chicken was! Delivered on time with a smile. Highly recommend them for your catering needs or just for a great meal!!!“

El dueño es increíblemente servicial, siempre con una sonrisa y una actitud que te hace sentir como en casa. Definitivamente, un lugar al que volveré una y otra vez. Súper recomendado.“

“I have to be honest before they have been good but I made a 2 good 2 go order and by the time I got there they were closed completely. I got off work and thatcwas my dinner now no dinner and a waste of gas out of my way. Again I'm not crapping on them because I understand wanting to go home when they are technically off the clock just sad I missed my dinner. The ppl there have always been professional, respectful 🙏 and always nice so this I no slight against the amazing staff“

“Michael and kadence have been beyond amazing. They have great customer service smiling and very patient. I have been in this location plenty of times and have had terrible service. I'm so happy I chose to give them another chance. I will become a regular again. I'm guessing Michael is the manager he hands down knows what he's doing environment is just ll around positive! He's awesome to his employees and customers stays on top of cleanliness and customers.“

“The older cashier who works in the mornings is outstanding!! She is exactly what this location needs! She is professional and kind to her customers!! The food has been consistently good but she is the face behind this location and one of the reasons I frequent this location. Kudos to her!“

“07-28-26 I was about to order for delivery on DoorDash and it didn’t have options for sauces or anything. So I called the store before ordering because I didn’t want dry chicken! The lady that picked up the phone made sure my order had sauce and it was very delicious when I received it.. thank you bless her heart!“

“I had the BEST experience with Honey's Chicken! I had to place a large order for catfish fillets for my wedding, and the owner actually came out to assist me with the order. He and his staff were very nice and accommodating. Not only were they nice, but the fish was AMAZING! I had to scramble to make sure my husband and I had fish. I'm truly grateful for the service. You guys are a blessing. Much success to you.“

“I didn’t feel like cooking dinner and my family and I had a taste for Popeyes Chicken. We don’t eat Popeyes often and when you get a crave for something you want your tastebuds to be satisfied. I came to this Popeyes location around 4:30 yesterday evening, everything was fresh and pipping hot. The customer service was excellent and the staff were friendly. The inside was clean and quiet. I clipped a coupon deal from the Popeyes app on my phone they honored in store. Overall great experience and I will return to this location even though there are 2 other Popeyes closer to my home.“

“Top-tier service. Working at a fast food restaurant isn't easy, so I really appreciate when someone goes out of their way to be pleasant and attentive. The cashier who helped me was welcoming, pleasant, and efficient, I'll definitely be back because of her.
My only complaint was the food... the wings were quite small, small enough that a few extra could have been added to compensate. Other than that, the service was served up with a smile. Kudos to this KFC.“

“I was pleasantly surprised that I would be given this location such a high score. I wanted to taste the wedges and chicken tenders, and I have to say it was delicious. The food was hot and fresh. There was no wait for the food and the gentleman who took my order so professional and pleasant.“

“omw son its litty like a titty“

“Tried this location on the fly- food was very very tasty! Everything was fresh! But my friend told me they forgot my pepper, but first time here was a hit!!! Loved every bit of my 6 wings with fries!!! Will definitely return, please keep up the good work!“

“I'm not sure if management changed or new owners, but we stopped in today and everything was perfect. The staff were nice, friendly & attentive, chicken was hot & fresh. We haven't had Popeyes in years, but I'll be back soon! If you haven't been there in a while, give them a try. Fully staffed, fresh food & ready quickly!!“
