Asked to see the manager. She went in the back then came back to say she tasted a pieceand it was fine. Even the couple eating next to us went back to ask for salt. Customer service, (or the chicken) has NEVERbeen this bad. After decades of coming here on a weekly basis, I'll be taking our business to Popeye's Chicken.

However, other than the flakey crust top it tasted like it was not cooked enough and watery inside the potpie. Sort of spitty-like and pretty nasty.

Idk how you can mess that up. read more The workers here have a combined IQ total of 7. I ordered a spicy bowl and they managed to give me a chicken sandwich. Idk how you can mess that up.

However, if you’re looking for good food, this isn’t the place. They’re often out of white meat chicken. The manager seems either unable to manage inventory properly or is trying to cut costs by serving dark meat at the same price, yet you still pay the full amount. This isn’t the fault of the friendly young employees—it’s a management problem. I wish her luck, despite the constant unpleasant expression she wears. I recommend going to the McDonald's next door instead; the staff there clearly know what they’re doing.

The dining area has a very unpleasant odor. Please clean the vents and replace the filters. It's quite off-putting. read more The dining area has a very unpleasant odor. Please clean the vents and replace the filters. It's quite off-putting.
