    Been here multiple times and it is so filling and worth your money if youre looking for a healthier option. Their chicken quarter thigh is HUGE and seasoned perfectly. The meat is so tender and doesnt need any additional sauce. I did also try the half chicken option that included breast meat and that was too dry for me. I also enjoyed their MSG flavored chicken tenders. Had the perfect spice kick and the green onions on top made it even better. The one thing im not huge on is their sides. Doesnt seem like as much love is put into them. Sometimes the rice tastes and feels not as fresh, and the side salads arent my favorite flavor wise. I would just stick to the rice or fries!

    Place is clean , staff is very friendly and food was fresh and delicious. I would definitely recommend.

    This was a very good option to try. My sandwich was great and the fries were delicious. Some of the sauces are out of this world. The tenders were juicy.

    You have to be kidding me. Chicken breast meal. Look at the pics. No need to say more. Tiny breast and the piece of toast that came with it. WTAH. They should be embarrassed.

    Well kept spot that serves juicy chicken tenders and fries, sandwiches, salads. Vegetarian options available. You order through a kiosks and there is minimal contact with staff. . Ample seating for dine in. The disappointment here for me personally were the sauces, their most palatable was the honey mustard. Everything else to me was lacking flavor that was well balanced. They were all too strong in one flavor that overpowered the taste.

    Stopped here for lunch & it was the juiciest chicken I've had in a while. Decided to order the New York Hot sandwich with grilled cole slaw as a side. Ordered my husband the MSG sandwich with a side of the blackened chili fries. I loved both sides and really enjoyed my sandwich. It was spicy but not too much where the spice overwhelms the whole flavor of the sandwich. Would recommend for lunch/dinner! They are also running a "Happy Hour" special from 3-5pm daily for $10 salads & bowls!

    I wanted to stop by since I was in the area and had no intention of finishing what I ordered because I had dinner plans. Little did I know I would order a sandwich and finish it because it was too good. I ordered the MSG and it was great! A little spicy but more like a Korean style flavor. But note it's not a whole chicken on a bun but rather two thick tenders on a bun. So instead it really should be called a tender sandwich. I do think the bun to meat ratio could be better. You definitely need a thicker bigger bun. So I cannot give this a perfect 10/10 but rather a 9/10 which is still very solid. I would even say it's the best chicken sandwich I had on the East coast so far. Order the spiced fries as a side. The fries were amazing paired with the sauces. Favorite fries so far. I'd put it above five guys fries and I love five guys fries. Must try! Looking forward to my next trip back here.

    It was tough to decide what it get at @brinechicken because everything sounded so good! The blackened chili garlic sauce was so flavorful and definitely I slathered it on everything! They have two locations-one in Chelsea NYC and one in Jersey. The chicken was so tender and flavorful. Their blackened chili rub is a 10/10. Super fast and cozy place with great food! The staff were so friendly and the service was super fast!

    Chicken-based food. Sandwiches, bowls, salads etc. I had the bowl. It's pretty good. Fried chicken has good flavor, not dry. It comes with rice and salad. Clean and modern inside. Staff is very nice.

    A new restaurant in the area, serving chicken in many delicious ways. There's quarter, half and boneless chicken platters, couple of sandwiches and bunch of salad bowls. Loved the thigh and MSG sandwich. Chicken ate cooked so nicely, moist and juicy. MSG has the perfect layer of chili sauce to make the sandwich very enticing. The restaurant has a very modern look. Not a lot of space, enough for about 20-25 guests. Four self order stations available. Food comes out within minutes. They deliver the order to the table, but mostly it's self served. Very popular for take out orders. I'll happily come back here for my delicious chicken sandwich cravings.

    Not a bad place to try, the chicken tasted fresh and the sauce was flavorful. I ordered the Umami chicken "sandwich" and spiced fries, with 2 extremely small sauce cups. The pictures in the restaurant and online show actual normal sized chicken sandwiches but after opening the box I couldnt believe this order was $18....Its not a sandwich at all, it is more of a slider. The sauce cups pictured on the restaurant order screens are also 3x the size so dont waste your money on them either. The aïoli sauce that is supposed to be included w fries was forgotten with my order. Its not that the food was bad, but there is blatent mismarketing of their items. You can spend 1/3 of the money elsewhere for actual normal portion sizes.

    This place is amazing in a world full of fast food and horrible options, this healthy alternative it's just a thing you need. No, don't go by me because I got Kadin fries and regular fries which were amazing. By the way you gotta try all the sauces... But they also have broccoli salad, beet salad, all types of healthy things. The owner is super friendly and attentive, gave me a little rundown of the place. And the decor is beautiful. I love all the plants everywhere! Even have kiosks there for ordering if you haven't been to brine, you have to now!

    Ok I'd like to start by saying this is more than just a "chicken place". I say that because they do so much with the bird that being considered a mere "chicken place" just doesn't do them menu justice. From the bowls to the salads and glorious fried chicken sandwiches (and more so the way they remix each sandwich), is just impressive to say the least. Today I had the spicy chicken salad, which caught me by surprise! I say this because, I welcome spice; to the umpteenth power, but this caught me by surprise. Both the chicken and the spicy fried onions came to play, and in a major way. Yet they weren't just hot but flavorful at the same time. The Cole slaw added a nice texture of crunch and coolness to calm each bite, and the raw kale also acted as a life raft in the sea of heat I found myself in; especially once I added the extra hot sauce that accompanied the dish. Overall it was a pleasant experience. Not only was the staff super friendly, inside of this spot was immaculate; from the touch screen order displays, to the seating area, and even the bathroom (I notice small things like this). I was glad I tried this spot, because there were a lot of eateries in the plaza and I wanted something different. Well boy were they different, and delicious; at the same damn time! Can't wait to return and suggest this spot to others!!

We ordered the meatball sandwich, the eggplant parmesan sandwich, and the chicken and rice soup. The sandwiches were incredibly tasty, with an excellent marinara sauce and great mouth feel. The bread also was amazing - I think it may have been an Aversa seeded roll. The sandwiches were huge servings, and we packed half to go. It was a cold, rainy day, so we also craved warm soup. The chicken and rice soup was probably the best I have ever had - it had a golden hue, flavorful and clear broth, and perfectly cooked rice and carrots, with just the right amount of tender white meat chicken. That soup was so delicious that we ordered another serving to go. Nick's strikes us as a family business, where they take great pride in their homemade recipes and treat everyone like family. The guy who took our order, brought our food, and interacted with us was so friendly, genuinely kind, and helpful. We also noticed that he was equally friendly to all customers.

The term 'hoagie' is most commonly used in Philadelphia and South Jersey. They are usually served cold because of their association with Italian American culture. Located on Lafayette Avenue in Hawthorne, this iconic establishment is an award-winning sandwich shop where locals know it for their large and filling sandwiches. Upon entering Bogie's Hoagies & Deli, my partner and I knew right away this was going to be a nice lunch spot as we were greeted by the staff and a huge deli selection menu. Besides sandwiches, they have pizza cooked inside a brick oven. We decided on the Meatball Marinara and Honey Turkey 1/2 size hoagies after comparing the sizes. The Honey Turkey packed a punch with the meat, lettuce, canned sweet peppers, tomatoes, onion, provolone cheese, mayonnaise, and oil & vinegar. The meal was tasty, and well seasoned. However, with the bread being thinner, it made the meatball sandwich soggy and fell apart. Even with the half size, we took the sandwich home. The price was reasonable. The service was quick, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. I was told by the staff that size does matter for a sandwich, and this place did not disappoint as first-timers, which we can recommend.
