All chicken at this location is halal, but be wary of the beans because it contains pork. The staff was very nice and patient when explaining this all to me, which I appreciated a lot.
Overall, this place is a steal with the amount of food and the quality you get, all for a great price. However, I would not call it the best fried chicken I have ever had. All of the food, the chicken and the sides, are exactly what you would expect at a nice sit down restaurant, yet they are available at this fast casual place. Tried almost all of the sides and they were cooked very well, with definitely quality ingredients used. The chicken itself was consistently moist and cooked very well, not under or overcooked at all. It's really the consistency in high quality that amazed me here. Taste wise? Unfortunately, when it comes to fried chicken, I like a bit of dankness (more oily or greasy) and this was the opposite of that. The sauces could have made up for it, but I was really not a fan of any of them, they were not up to par with Ricky's Comeback sauce or Cane's sauce. The meal missed that extra oomph I wanted, but don't get me wrong, still very very solid, and I will for sure be back.
A lot of people say the spicy tenders are the best, and they were good, but I think I liked the plain, non spicy, fried chicken the most. Best sides imo are the corn and fries. Hope they open a location closer to the Fort Worth side one day!

I have gone to this location a few times and each time the chicken was good until last Saturday 08/02/25. I noticed it was new people in there, but I thought nothing of it until I tasted the chicken and green beans. The chicken was absolutely awful and the green bean were not that great either!! The chicken had an awful flavor. It taste like it had too much Thyme on it which made it taste horrible and the green beans were bland as heck. I was very disappointed with the food this time.

Let me begin by saying the food its good, but the service its not great and the atmosphere it’s loud its not clean you have to clean your own table the trash cans are full. If this place its always full I don’t understand why they don’t have enough people working. I will not drive 25 min for the service of this place.
Really good chicken tenders. Spicy tenders were perfect!

yummy food, clean place. Served us quickly with a smile. Definitely recommend.
Super excited to go to this place after seeing the reviews, but I was quickly disappointed. My food came fast, but it took nearly 20 minutes for my friend to get his food, so I had to eat my food first, which was awkward. I got the 3-piece with mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. It was supposed to be $12 for a 3 piece, but the mac and cheese and mashed potatoes were an additional $1 for some reason. The mashed potatoes were good, but I wish they had told me it came with gravy on it because I don't like mashed potatoes with gravy. The mac and cheese was extremely mediocre and tasted like the Kraft mac and cheese from the box. It was super runny, and it was room temperature, which was gross. The spicy fried chicken did have actually had a kick to it, which was nice, but it was extremely greasy. The honey mustard was okay. The mikes sauce was good, but it's basically just Cane's sauce.

Delicious! Service was reasonably quick given the high number of people in the restaurant. Some of the best fried chicken tenders I've had. The fries and mac & cheese were tasty as well. Overall a great casual place to eat with friends or groups.

The chicken tenders are made with the perfect amount of spices. The service is good, preparation is fast and the sides also taste great! The only reason I gave it 4 stars is because the cost does not match the value of the meal. This meal here is $20. It’s great chicken just not great enough to pay $20 for it.

I really hate to leave a subpar review but it is better to tell the truth in an effort to help them improve.
The service was great, the atmosphere was busy but appropriate. The food wasn't what I expected. The execution was second to none. Chicken was juicy and crispy, possibly the best in the area, but they failed in the seasoning department. If they could season (Salt, Pepper, etc...) a little better, I would consider this the best chicken in Texas. Until then, they are just another Chicken catastrophe.
Almost forgot....the fries were amazing...best in the area.
