Delicious Food and Friendly Staff!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! The chicken was absolutely delicious, and the staff was incredibly friendly. They even went the extra mile by asking if we wanted extra sauces. I would definitely recommend this place!

Yummy Chicken, Sweet Service!
My experience was incredibly positive! The spicy fried chicken was so yummy and reminded me of Jollibee, possibly even a bit better. It was definitely worth the price. The guy working there, who was by himself, was exceptionally accommodating and sweet. Even though the chicken was a new batch and we had to wait a bit, he provided us with what he could while we waited and consistently checked in on us. He was honestly such a nice guy. All of the tables were also clean and tidy, contributing to a pleasant atmosphere.

Great Food, Service Needs Support
My experience at this restaurant was primarily positive due to the food, which truly hits the mark. Despite being a two-part establishment, it's not a bad setup. The one guy working there, who we've seen on all three visits, is incredibly nice and does his best to serve everyone. While we missed the Cajun corn last night, we enjoyed some really good fries instead. The issues with the place aren't really with the server who's juggling multiple roles, but rather with the managerial choices of the business. The soda machine is still down with only Sprite working, and the ambience is just okay, though not a major concern for me in the U-District. Overall, the food is great, especially the immaculate chicken sandwich, but I hope the dedicated worker is being compensated appropriately for their extensive duties!

Painful Experience, Severe Let Down
My experience at this restaurant was a painful experience. It’s rare that I’m disappointed by chicken sandwiches and strips, but this was a severe let down. Genuinely so bad. It is cheap though! Do not go here.

Bomb Chickens, Fast Service, Clean Place!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! I had the bomb chickens, which were incredibly crispy and juicy, and perfectly seasoned. The service was fast, and the staff were friendly. The place was very clean, and the prices were affordable. Overall, a great dining experience.

Juicy Chicken and Yummy Fries!
My experience at this restaurant has been consistently good. I've been here a few times and can attest that the chicken is juicy, flavorful, and fresh. The fries were also yummy. The service and atmosphere both received a perfect score of 5, and the food also got a 5-star rating.

Fresh and Juicy Burger Experience
My experience at the restaurant was fantastic! Everything tasted very fresh. The chicken burger was incredibly juicy, and the wings were perfectly crispy. I also enjoyed the popcorn chicken, which had a crispy exterior and a tender interior. The food quality was excellent, and the service and atmosphere were also top-notch.

Best Fried Chicken and Cornbread!
My experience has been solely through Uber delivery, but I can confidently say this is the best fried chicken I've had in ages! The cornbread is also a-ma-zing. My only wish is that they were located closer.

Disappointing Fried Chicken Experience
I have to chuckle at the 5-star reviews calling this the best fried chicken in Seattle; I wonder if they've ever had fried chicken before. My experience with the spicy chicken combo, which included fries and cornbread, was simply bad. I dislike leaving negative reviews and wasting food, but the food was not good, and as others have noted, the service was painfully slow. Even with no one else waiting, my food took fifteen minutes. The staff member at the fryer seemed disengaged, just standing and staring. The fries were soggy and bland, and the fried chicken itself was bland, unappetizing, greasy, and had an off color. Personally, I don't care for dark meat, which was another detractor for me. The so-called cornbread was not cornbread; it lacked any sweetness, was hard, cold, and bland. I managed only about five bites before giving up. Additionally, the lack of ketchup for fries and no option to order sauces on the side was frustrating. While the place looks cute and cozy, the unappetizing taste of the food overshadowed any positive ambiance.
