“ I always love eating at this place. The chicken is amazing. The service is great and the mango sauce is the best sauce for dipping tenders in the world! The staff really goes above and beyond to make sure each guest has fresh food and a smile ”
“ I have wanted to try this place since I saw their cute little mascot! We ordered the 2 piece crispy chicken combo with bbq seasoned fries and the 5 piece chicken tender combo with mashed potatoes and gravy. The crispy chicken breasts were phenomenal with so much meat and the bbq fries had the perfect amount of seasoning for every bite. The chicken tenders were juicy and delicious quite possibly the best chicken tender I’ve had to date. The mashed potatoes were creamy with a delicious gravy on top. The cookies were the perfect end to the meal with the chocolate chips melting with each bite. To top off the whole experience the staff was extremely fast and friendly with a pleasant greeting and goodbye after grabbing out to go order. Can’t wait to go back and try their spaghetti! ”
“ The staff are very welcoming. Christopher, the crew who handled my order is so friendly. I love how crispy and tasty their fried chicken are. I can’t wait to be back in this place! Don’t forget the free cookie which is so good ”
“ This Chicken is so moist and crispy and delicious the Chocolate Chip Cookie is a nice touch! I'LL BE BACK! They have a reward program also! ”
“ Limited seating, about 6 tables. Fresh food taste like it was fried to order, juicy. Crispy fresh fries... 10/10!! No more Popeyes for me ”
“ This was such an incredibly pleasant experience. Firstly, the associate at the register greeted me and after apologizing for ordering slowly as it was my first time, she offered a brief history of the restaurant and how they developed their batter and ideology. The restaurant was clean and well-lit. I waited roughly eight minutes for my order (a wait the associate had warned me of), a five piece chicken tender and fries. They offer cheese and BBQ seasoned fries but I wanted a fresh perspective of their plain fries, I'll definitely try cheese next. As with every other customer I saw receive their order, she went over each item to ensure correctness with me. I was blown away at the value. I anticipated the portions of other casual dining establishments and I was wrong. Five chicken tenders were obviously over a pound of incredibly juicy, succulent chicken breast in a very crispy, almost beer batter style breading. The chicken was gently spiced but complimented the taste of the chicken very well. Two sauces were provided with the order, I didn't want to bother her to ask the names again so I apologize that names aren't included. The first, lighter sauce, was a spicy mango flavored viscous sauce that was fantastic. The spice and fruit flavors were complementary, the sauce was not overly spicy and it definitely added something great to the crispy chicken. The second, darker sauce, was barbecue style but more tang than sweet, which I enjoyed. Packaged hot sauce was also provided. The fries were crispy and had a distinct flavor, I believe they may use a different frying oil than is typical. They were phenomenal and I will absolutely include them in every future order. I was unable to eat more than the fries and three tenders but the cookie looked and smelled delicious. Between the courteousness of staff, cleanliness, value, flavor and quality of the food, I am sure I will frequent this restaurant in the future. ”
“ The chicken is good, but the spaghetti is even better. I don't think I'll be cooking my own spaghetti from now on & will just drop by here to buy some. Their sides were good too! They have a Kukuruku opening up in Bartlett soon as well, so if you're far from Lakeland, definitely go check it out in Bartlett. I regret not getting another order of spaghetti, ugh ”
“ This is great little restaurant. I ordered the 2-piece chicken, fries with bbq seasoning, and Taro Bubble Tea. Additionally, I was offered mango jalapeno dipping sauce. I found the chicken to be huge in size, plump, juicy, and tasty. The bbq seasoning was very enjoyable on the fries. Lastly, it was a good decision to upgrade to the purple taro bubble tea. Very good flavor and desirable. The jalapeno mango sauce was just ok. Not bad, but I can’t see myself reordering. ”
