The fish tasted like it had been sitting there for hours. 4 Shrimps was very hard fried. Okra tastes horrible. All of the food I ordered was cold at pickup before leaving the parking lot. The cost is expensive for poor food quality.When you in line just gave your order, then to first window to pay, lastly go to the window to pick up. When your food is waiting on you, that food has been cooked for a bit. Fish and shrimp are different from chicken to have it sitting there to purchase. Will not come back for any food there in this area of Golden Chick. The commercial is a lie about how good the fish and shrimp are at Golden Chick. I had a horrible experience besides paying $13 for the meal I could not eat.

If you are a fan of spicy foods, get the spicy chicken tenders or wicked wings. You will not be disappointed. This location has always made the food hot and fresh.

The young lady at the counter was super helpful! The online order system messed up. When I called, she fixed everything quickly. When I got there to pick up my order- she seemed like she was the boss! She was handling multiple orders at once, opening ovens, guiding others to the stuff they needed in the kitchen with a smile on her face. If she's not the manager, she should be!

They didn't get my drink right despite repeating it twice l, I went back around the gave me a medium instead of a large. And honestly I get more flavor from a KFC biscuit. Found Zero seasoning was on anything so go here if you wanna taste some chicken and it's grease soaked into the soggy breading. Didn't even have time to go around a third time cuz they screwed up my whole lunch break. So definitely go here to get disappointed.Vegetarian options: None because it's all fried in the same grease. Your corn nuggets will taste like the tenders

Went through the drive through for family dinner, waitress was extremely impatient while ordering and then rolled her eyes at us when we asked for napkins, food was missing

The cashiers in drive way were super kind and fast. This location is by far the best one I've been to. Also their bread is the best at this location, soft and warm 10/10.

The the chicken was cold they were not chicken tenders. They were chicken bites. They were so tiny that my 16 piece dinner did not feed five people so we had to add food to it because we live too far from you. That was really the most pathetic looking chicken I’ve ever seen the rolls however we’re good mashed potatoes were good. Your green beans were cold. Not sure what seasoning was in them. They did not taste good. No one ate them, but bottom line is the chicken was very cold. It was too small. They were not chicken tenders, so I was not happy with the food at all. Thank you have a good day. No

I love the food here. I've been frequenting the chain for years. I just recently spent some time in the hospital as will happen when you get older. I have 4 doctors now and I have to eat healthier every day but you want to be able to have a real treat every now and then. I have been pouring over nutrition facts of dozens of restaurants and fast food places to see if there was anything I could possibly eat and there ain't much. I was so surprised when looking at Golden Chicks nutrition facts online that the chicken strips here are a lot healthier than chicken strips at other places with regard to sodium, saturated fat, etc...The staff at this location is super nice. After eating salads day in and day out getting an order of Golden tenders is one of my few options to treat myself with a little comfort food that stays within my dietary limitations. I just have to be careful about the sides and stick to the chicken strips or catfish. lol Oh yeah and lest I forget, Golden Chick has the best ICE. They have that wonderful small pebble ice that so nice and crunchy in their drinks. Their brewed ice tea is pretty good as well.Dietary restrictions: I am type 2 diabetic and a heart patient so I have to limit sodium, carbs, sugar, saturated fat and I keep my daily calories under 2000 per day. 3 fried chicken tenders are only 261 calories, 2.4 g of saturated fat, 324 g of sodium and 15.9 net carbs after deducting the fiber. You would think the grilled tenders would be better but they have over double the sodium vs the fried tenders so I opt for the fried which I prefer anyway though fried is higher in carbs. Sodium is harder to limit than carbs since it is in literally everything.
