Ok so I had the miso tenders, the Nashville sandwich and the pepper jack cheese fries. the tenders had a nice consistency and were nice and big. The miso honey is good on its own, no need for sauce. The Nashville sandwich was also quite good but I would say it is slightly hotter than your average Nashville chicken and it was a little saltier than normal...still good though, but you better like spice. The cheese fries were a big let down unfortunately, undercooked, flavorless and all stuck together in one big glob. Perhaps it was an off order but I did not enjoy them in the slightest. Now for everything else... the parking lot is absolutely hit and I can't say it's very pristine inside either judging from a quick glance. The woman working the window had about as much enthusiasm as a tree stump , I don't expect workers to do a dance and entertain me but not responding to you when talking is a bad move. I'm also not sure if I appreciate their gimmick here because as a child of divorce I think it's a little tasteless...just like the fries were. I had to give it a shot regardless but I don't think I'll be back. Dave's hot chicken and Uncle Joe's are both superior restaurants in the local area and you'd be best off going to one of those. Again The chicken was darn good but virtually everything else was a big turn off.

I stopped at the location in Warren on Van Dyke for a quick bite after the sign caught my eye and was I surprised. After ordering shrimp with fries, a chicken sandwich, and the tenders, I ended up waiting 35 minutes at the drive thru window before I got my food. That is after honking my horn to get attention after which I was told that only two people were working and they were busy. Umm, there was only 1 couple inside. While I waited a customer who was already parked outside waiting went inside and cancelled his order.Now to the food, it was the worst fast food I have ever paid $34 for. The chicken was over cooked/almost burnt, the fries were stale and hardbto bite. When I break them the insides are hollow. The shrimp over cooked, almost burnt, and was awful. The chicken sandwich was not too bad, but still not up to my expectations. Seems the tenders and shrimp are just normal tenders and shrimp you can pick up at Walmart on the frozen section. No special seasoning.I would never recommend this place. The name and the tagline is cool and funny but the food and service is awful. The pictures I see in these reviews are nothing to what I got.

Drive through was easy and they made everything fresh, it took about 10 min bit well worth it! It was still hot when I got ot home, the regular was great but I really loved the miso honey glazed.

Great spicy fried chicken. Very simple menu to view and pick. If you want some good wholesome southern style fried chicken is a great place. Everything besides the sleep venue was average about this place. The menu looked nice, and the food was surprisingly very good.

Very good Chicken, super tender and flavorful, unfortunately the fries weren't crinkle cut like the pictures I've seen online, more along the style of Burger King, i got the cajun seasoning on them and Im not kidding, only about 5% of the fries had a tiny bit of cajun sprinkled on them

Great chicken flavor, large pieces. Kinda slow about 20 min to get your order, but worth it if your not in a time crunch!

Food is great. Tenders are very juicy fries are very good too. Friendly people at service. Only complaint is service is a little slow but possibly to make those fresh Tenders. Definitely great place for chicken ! I'll forgive my EX- wives for cheating ! ?

So the decor is super cute - all hot pink, black, and chickens. The sandwiches have a few fun twists on them. One is the Alabama white sauce - a horseradish based sauce. Too bad my sandwich had so little on it, I had to pull my sandwich apart to check. However, that mack-n- cheese (their spelling) is just lovely. Real baked stuff! Worth the 15 minute wait. I suggest ordering ahead or being prepared to take time here. Oh! And being your own headphones. The near silence is deafening.

No one was in the restaurant when we arrived. First we tried drive thru and got no response. Went in and our food took forever to be made and the floors were so sticky everytime you walked it made the loudest sound. After waiting what seemed like 20-25 minutes ( again no one was there but me and my daughter) our food wasn't what we expected. The pictures look so good and our food was just okay. She was supposed to get the Nashville hot chick sandwich minus coleslaw and she said it was more salty than anything. No heat spice or otherwise. Neither one of our sandwiches cheese was even melted .....but it took 20-25 minutes...so confused but I also tried the pepper jack fries. More like swiss cheese fries again no spice. I tried the wild chick and there was four thick onion strips in the middle of a dab of sweet sauce. We were excited to try this restaurant but very disappointed in what we had. Dont get me wrong it wasnt bad just not at all what we expected.

Parking: Lots of parking...again no one was there. That should have told us.

Tenders on par with Chick-fil-A with even better sauces. Plus it's local.

The chicken was SO GOOD! It was fresh and juicy, really tasty. We went with the whole fam and everyone got something different. Nashville hot and lemon pepper tenders were crowd faves, seconded by the bougie chick sandwich. The restaurant was super clean, love the motif and staff was very kind and helpful. We’re definitely going to revisit to try some new combinations!

I saw an ad/story on FB a few months ago and thought "I'm curious." My daughter and I were running Sunday errands and knew we would pass right by. Boy, this place DOESN'T disappoint. We decided to try something small to share. We had a 4 piece honey butter chicken tender combo with fries and 2 Pepsis. It was so good and we will definitely be back. Everyone should give Ex-Wife's Chicken a try at least once..... I think you'll like it.
