I'm not a huge fan of fast food however I admit after moving to NC after 25 years and being from SC, I was curious to see if Bojangles was as good as my memory thought. The short answer is according to this facility I'm not sure. Please note this is in a very safe part of town and relatively close to the main highway, schools and other shopping needs. Considering there aren't many other options available, I think Bojangles does alright with their food.
The cashier was extremely nice, which I think the whole staff takes great pride in. Every time I've stopped by, they're courteous and quick to swipe the card and give me my meal. I'll start with the sides as the potatoes were bland and the gravy tasted like a paste on top of mush. In other words, there was hardly any flavor and I almost quit eating it. The mac & cheese on the other hand wasn't too bad as it was cheesy and the pasta wasn't an overcooked mess. The biscuit was fluffy and flaked easily - more so than a lot of the women I've dated - woozah! Ok that was a JOKE y'all!
As for the chicken, I got two thighs and WOWZA! It's been a while since 'jangles rocked so hard I forgot what their chicken can be when the pull out a freshly fried piece of chicken. The breading was ok a little bland but not bad. Now, these thighs were HUGE, I mean even Oprah would be like... DANG! In other words the star of the show, the chicken, "clucked" to the occasion!
In summary, while the sides were exactly what one thinks when going to Da Bo, the chicken was the star of the show, as it should be. The people are nice and depending on the time of day, the service quick. Stop on by for some good fried Hedwig (Harry Potter's bird). read more
