This restaurant is situated on Inland Island Hwy, right by the Shell gas station. It’s conveniently accessible from both directions and has great hours of operation. We’ve visited this place nearly a dozen times over the past two years, and we absolutely love it. While it’s not particularly healthy, that’s to be expected at a fried chicken joint. What I appreciate most about this establishment is the staff and the excellent customer service they provide. Each time I visit, I’m welcomed with a smile and a personal touch. Keep up the great work!

As a first-time customer, I found the Chicken Burger Lunch to be outstanding. The chicken breast was tender and juicy, and the bun was crispy. Unlike many other fast-food chicken burgers, this one featured a whole half chicken breast instead of processed meat. It was quite filling. I would definitely make the drive to enjoy this again!

Let's keep in mind that this place specializes in roasted chicken, and that's why it deserves a 5-star rating. It's absolutely fantastic! The service is fast and friendly, and the food is less greasy than you might expect from a franchise. I really enjoy the crispy, spicy chicken, especially when I arrive with a ravenous hunger after a long mountain biking ride. I recommend getting the 3-piece meal with potatoes—and don't forget the gravy, of course! The portion size for the mashed potatoes is just a bit smaller than I'd like, but the fries are delicious. They've also refreshed the decor, using some of the best Benjamin Moore paints, indicating they're looking to be around for years to come. Overall, this is a great spot to stop for food!

Stopped to get some chicken to bring camping. Got the meal which comes with 3 sides, and choose 3 x potato wedges. It comes with gravy and they threw in a bunch of ketchups vinegar. The chicken was really good and flavorful. The breading almost looked like they were using whole Corn Flakes, and is used on the potato wedges as well. You can order spicy if you want. We had leftover wedges and used them to make camping hash browns the next morning which turned out really good. A nice change from KFC. Actually, we tried to go to KFC, but they must have been operating on holiday hours cause they were still closed after their posted opening time. Their loss as we have found a new spot !!!
