I finally got to go check out Dave's Hot Chicken in Bloomington! This is some of the freshest hot…read morechicken I've ever had. First of all, their chicken strips are NOT small, so be prepared. When you order a slider, don't think you're getting some tiny sandwich--this thing is full-size and loaded. The kale slaw adds the perfect amount of flavor and crunch, especially when paired with Dave's sauce... such a good combo. The fries are also fantastic--almost perfect. I personally like mine just a little crispier, but the seasoning on them is so good it doesn't exactly matter lol And yes... we're talking about the pickles too. Perfect pickles. They add that extra bite and flavor that pushes the sandwich right over the edge to perfection. Oh and I almost forgot to mention my son wanted to try the macaroni and cheese so bad that he went up there and ordered a side of it, we all shared it. It was good, the noodles tasted just a little bit well done, and it smelled like velveeta. This place definitely gets crowded, but for good reason--it's a hot, popular spot and people know their chicken is fresh and amazing. There's plenty of seating both indoors and outdoors, and I absolutely love the graffiti artwork on the walls. The bright, bold colors are so inviting, it almost makes you want to come inside before you even smell the food. If you haven't been here yet, do yourself a favor and get over here and check it out. It's great!

First know that this isn't fast food. It's not something you would really want to eat in the car,…read moreand everything appears to be made to order. I wasn't prepared for this. I had to use the restroom and it wasn't awful, but certainly not something you would brag about. I was surprised at how many people were working behind the counter. This was Sunday around 3. Not exactly rush hour, but they were busy. I ordered the two slider combo and a vanilla shake. I ordered 1 mild and 1 hot slider. I had no way to tell which was which when I opened the box. I ended up eating the mild first. This really isn't special. The flavor is lacking. The hot was pretty hot. My head started sweating immediately. Anything hotter would have been a mistake. Again the chicken doesn't have a lot of flavor it's just hot. The fries were okay, and overall this was a lot of food. The chicken pieces were big. The shake tastes like any other shake. Honestly o would rather have Canes and probably will be one and done on Dave's. Unless you just really need some hot chicken I would look elsewhere.

Daughter got a burger and fries and bf and I got the OG sandwiches, hot and medium respectively and we split a truffle fry. It's a cool little place with a good selection of top shelf bourbon, but unfortunately I don't get the hype about the food. The chicken was tough, literally had pieces as tough as cardboard I could barely chew. The first 3 or 4 bites of my sandwich were just breading. I didn't think the spice level was even as hot as Franks which I would consider mild and bf said his was barely spicy either. The fries weren't very good, not very crispy mostly limp. My daughter said the burger was good. I may go back and try something else because I really want to like it but it won't be any time soon.

When I took a bite of the enchilada, it was COLD, and the exact same thing with the refried beans. To say that I was disgusted is an understatement. When I brought this to the attention of the staff, they enquired if I wanted another meal, to which I refused. I then asked for a refund, to which they flatly declined. I now have some sort of stomach virus, and will most likely miss work tomorrow. I also spoke with another patron, and they reported the same exact issue. When I informed them that I was going to file a complaint with the health department, they literally stated that they did not care. Well, we'll see how "much they don't care " when a health inspector gives them a THOROUGH inspection !!!

Congratulations the owners/managers of this little gem, they really care and do things right!

I haven't been to a Portillo's in over 15 years, just once, and that one was in Chicago, so I…read morewasn't sure what to expect. The store in Normal is about a 15 minute drive off Interstate 74 from the south side of town. I started with 2 Chicago-style hot dogs. There was a pickle spear, a tomato slice, and some peppers in with my hot dog, on a poppy seed bun. I devoured them. Then I let my wife know where I was eating. She suggested I try a hot and wet, and the chocolate cake. The hot dogs were excellent so I decided to try them. I wasn't sure what a hot and wet was so I asked the cashier who took my order. She said "I got you." It was a slow-roasted Italian beef sandwich with hot peppers and dipped in the beef's natural "gravy" that dripped off it while it was roasting. I opened the package and started eating immediately. There was no stopping until it was gone. The photo in their online menu is pretty accurate. I didn't pause long enough to take one myself. Then there was the cake. If you like chocolate cake, this is a no-brainer. It was definitely non-dry. It was likely the best cake I''ve eaten all year. The restaurant was nice and clean, with someone cleaning up after customers as soon as tables were vacated. The cashiers were friendly, and the woman calling out the numbers was extremely friendly. I saw her offer to help a woman across the dining area from the pick-up window to package up a large to-go order. She also noticed that I went back for the cake. I will have to stop here again the next time I'm passing through.

Not as accessible as I would wish…read more This location is huge! Accessible parking is not an issue if you choose to forgo the drive through. However once you get to the door you may have issues. The doors were so heavy that I couldn't open it, then the restroom door was the same. The toilet was so low and the sinks were tall and I had to really reach for the soap and faucet. Thank goodness for friendly people helping strangers. There is only a diaper changing station in the woman's room so thats a disappointment. The food is what you expect but you need to be super clear with what you want because the cashiers ring up the orders so fast. I got the signature sandwich with sweet peppers, onion rings, Chicago dog, and a signature shake. The onion rings were a little too crispy and tasted like oil. They do have plant based food items but check out their chocolate cake slices too. There was plenty of seating for parties of 1 to 15 so bring the team in. There are tables and booths and there are high chairs too. The old Americana vibe was interesting, so great to play I spy games. The restaurant is huge and hard to hear your order being called, so stay tuned in before sitting down.

It was nice to go check out Raising Cane's in Bloomington a couple weeks ago. I had only ate at…read moreRaising Cane's twice ever so it's nice to be reminded of how good their chicken is. They were pretty crowded when we got there and the parking lot was a bit tight. It's kind of only one row of parking and I drive a larger vehicle so it was difficult to pull in or even back in to the parking place. I wanted to give 4 stars cause of the parking lot but instead just making sure you know, parking is a struggle. Once we finally got a parking place we went inside and placed our order. I noticed there was a lot of people that were happy and enjoying their dinner. There's not a lot of seating inside, I've definitely seen pictures of bigger Canes restaurants but it seems like it could be enough if people are in and out when they're finished eating. We didn't have to wait very long for our food and it was all fresh and hot! I enjoy the flavor of the chicken and also the cane sauce. The fries are okay but it'd be nice to try out some seasoning on them I'm not sure if this restaurant offers something like that. I love the art on the walls and I noticed the other two canes that I have been to have the brick wall painted with the canes logo. I love the ambience and all of the decor in the restaurant. I'd like to say that I would come back but they're building one in Peoria so I'll be able to have it there next. Thanks for making my meal fresh and ready!
