Terrible, terrible customer service from new owners...this is not original Chix Basket. Avoid at all

Quite simply, this place has gone to hell... the new owner is keeping the name but adding an african menu?No longer have mumbo sauce, the fries and chicken taste like they don't change the grease, the woman at the counter made me feel like I was interrupting her show as I patiently waited to place my order. Felt like I was inconveniencing her... like lady find another job if this is a problemThis is no longer chicken basket... they need to change the name cause this was a miserable experience

Keep in mind all the great reviews are for the old owner. Now that they have new management everything seems to suck. One of there popular items steak & cheese is out which I guess it's ok considering that they didn't taste that great anymore but now also the customer service is terrible. Call no answer or worse a rude lady answers the phone making you not even wave to go in. I miss the old owners for sure the shop was always too cold or too hot but the food and service was always great

I think this place is under new management, and it's not a good change. They were extremely unprofessional when I called in my order to the point that I wasn't even sure they were going to make my food. The service was extremely slow. They didn't have any sauces that the old Chicken Basket famously advertised. And the food itself was definitely lower quality. We will not be returning. We are very disappointed because they used to be so good.

The food is not the same no more.Chicken was salty and it looked like it was old. I learned it’s a new owner.

It wasn't bad but it wasn't fresh. It was store bought pre-bated frozen seafood.

Ive been a Chicken Basket customer since High School in 2007, and I can say that it keeps getting better. The new owner has nailed the classics. The food is tasty, not too greasy, and never over-fried. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that this location also serves West African dishes. I have had a few of these meals which were fabulous. I also appreciate that the West African food is authentic yet made in a way that the spices are not overwhelming and anyone who is not used to the flavor profiles can easily adjust. This restaurant is truly a gem!!

Don't even try it!!! I went in there and noticed the previous owner wasn't there no more and I decided to check the new owner out. I made my order and was told it will be ready in 20 mins nope that didn't happen I waited 45 mins because deep fried take a long time to cook. I worked in the kitchen before um not really. I got my food and left I noticed they put barely any fries and the chicken you can tell was cooked in old oil. When my family tried the steak and cheese is was it's extremely salty I tasted after to confirm , so I decided to call and she told me everyone knows that the steaks for the stubs already come with salt and that they told put salt. I told her well the previous owner who I was a customer for for years since middle school never made is so salty. She continues to say well it's his meat we are using what he had gave us and I hung up because I don't want to waste my time on people who won't take accountability. Don't waste your money forgot to mentioned I understand inflation but my goodness the price smh

Don't I Repeat Don't waste your time ordering this dry chicken, I washighly disappointed with my recent experience. Not only did the owner get my order wrong, when I showed the options they had available on toastab their online ordering site. He then began to tell me they had to raise the price as if that's an excuse. I ordered a spicy chicken sub combo which is listed at 9.50 with fries and soda. He then overcharged me for 13 dollars saying the fries and soda weren't included. I asked for ketchup and hot sauce and received 2 packets each. For all them dry fries, bring out the bottle. Next time, I'll go with a better choice like Kenny's Sub shop. I hope this helps the next person from eating an overpriced dry sandwich.

The food is great, the new management has taken it back to it's original awesome flavor. I drive all the way from Baltimore to get chicken and the onion rings are always fresh!
