I placed an order through the Dave's Hot Chicken app at the Wake Forest, North Carolina location on…read moreHighway 98. I ordered the Trio, which included mozzarella, boneless chicken bites, and sliders. When I opened my order, I was honestly blown away to discover that the sliders had been prepared and packaged without the chicken--the primary protein and main component of the item was completely missing. This goes beyond a simple mistake with a condiment, topping, or side item. How does an order make it through the kitchen, assembly process, packaging, and final handoff without anyone noticing that the actual chicken was missing from the chicken sliders? From a customer-service and basic QA/QC standpoint, this represents a significant breakdown in the order fulfillment process. Customers ordering through the app are trusting the restaurant staff to prepare and verify their meals before they leave the kitchen, particularly because an app customer may not discover an issue until they have already returned home. There should be some level of final quality-control check to ensure that the primary components of an order are actually present. I have already contacted Dave's Hot Chicken corporate and provided both my email address and phone number requesting a callback. I believe the level of service failure associated with this experience warrants more than simply reporting a missing item through the app. Someone within management needs to understand what occurred and determine how an order containing sliders with no chicken whatsoever was allowed to leave the restaurant. I understand that mistakes happen in food service, and I am generally reasonable about an occasional incorrect or missing item. However, completely forgetting the primary ingredient in multiple chicken sliders indicates a much more fundamental breakdown in attention to detail, quality control, and customer service. I hope Dave's Hot Chicken takes this feedback seriously, addresses the issue with the Wake Forest location, and follows up with me regarding how this situation will be resolved.

Y'all, my daughter and I have been looking at this place for a while and finally got there today…read more Oh, why oh, why did it take us so long? Obviously, this is our first time, but what we got was amazing. We each got one of the lunch specials. She got boneless wings with the seasoned fries, and I got the wings with the radish. I got the sauce that starts with a "y", and she got half Korean BBQ and half the "Y" sauce. She enjoyed both of the sauces, but liked the BBQ one best. She also ordered one of those Korean "corn dogs" with cinnamon sugar on it, and the Kewpie mayo. I wouldn't get the pickled radish again, it's not what I've eaten elsewhere, but who cares when the wings were so awesome.........amazing........I think young people say they are fire......and they were. The fries were crispy, the wings crispy and well-sauced.......................and I cannot wait to go again. To top it off, our server, Madden, was wonderful. Not named after those guys from the band, Good Charlotte, but after John Madden! Since I know it can be good, let it be known while there if it's not.......because I'm pretty sure they'll make it right.

Whole Truth Lunchroom has a great mission, and the food definitely lived up to the experience…read more Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The fried chicken was crispy and fried hard just the way I like it, with plenty of flavor in every bite. The greens were seasoned perfectly, and the yams were sweet with a great texture--not too hard and not too soft. I visited on a hot summer day, and the restaurant can get pretty loud and a little stuffy when it's busy. Thankfully, they had fans placed throughout the space, which made it much more comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere. If you're looking for good soul food and want to support a place with a meaningful mission, Whole Truth Lunchroom is worth a visit. I'd definitely go back.

A ministry of the church next door, Wilson's Whole Truth Lunchroom is a hidden gem. Located a few…read moreblocks from downtown and run by dedicated volunteers, this is an old school cafeteria with the type of food you'd expect from Southern church ladies. Dishes vary from day to day but the fried chicken, baked chicken, and fried pork chops are staples. Plates come with two sides and you can see from the photo why the blackeyed peas are so good (spoiler alert - it's bacon, lots of bacon). Collards are also delicious and the yams are mildly sweet without being cloying. The banana pudding is gloriously warm and the meringue is fluffy. The pudding is a touch too sweet and I could have done with more bananas but it was large enough to share. The staff is genuinely happy to see you and are happy to talk about their work, if you like. The room is a bit bare bones and the bathrooms are rudimentary and cramped but everything works. There is parking directly in front of the restaurant. Thanksgiving take-out is available for pre-order (see photo). I have a strong feeling you won't go wrong with any of the choices.

Food was great but service was an issue. I usually tip a couple dollars at these type places (not 20%) as the do not bring your food out or pick up your plates. It's a do it yourself type place and that's fine but I'm not going to give you 20% tip for nothing. Our bill was like $41ish. I'm chose the -10% tip option as it would be probably a little over $4 which is fair for really doing nothing service related. Well 10% tip Option equated to $7.15ish tip when I looked at my receipt. I mentioned it to the guy calling order #s and he couldn't bother to give me an answer. Wasn't going to pursue any more because it was only taking an extra $3ish but was quite disappointed and annoyed. Like I was giving you a $4ish tip for basically nothing. The whole experience/interaction left an awful taste in my mouth. Enough where I probably wont be back.

BBQ can vary greatly from place to place. SCNB has true eastern North Carolina BBQ. it is always…read moregood. Covered in their own vinegar sauce I find it hard to beat. When we lived in Virginia SCNB was a definite stop while traveling in North Carolina. For many years we only ordered the bbq, until one year, my wife tried the fried chicken. OMG. They do chicken right. It reminds me of fried chicken when growing up. The seasoning is the best. Not hot and spicy but just gooood. Publix fried chicken comes close but SCNB always comes out on top. Next come the sides. The Brunswick stew tastes like the recipe is generations in the making. It is thick, meaty, and loaded with vegetables. If you're looking for pulled pork and excellent fried chicken, then SCNB is a fantastic choice.

We made 2 trips during the week we were here. The first time I got the chicken and bbq plate, also came with fries and hush puppies and also Cole slaw. As a Florida native. My idea of bbq is different. I'm used to sweet and tangy sauce or a golden mustard sauce. Their sauces are vinegar based with a bit of tomato paste for color and red pepper flakes. I will say it's an acquired taste. It wasn't bad. Their fried chicken was really crispy and it was really juicy, hot and fresh. I also tried their banana pudding which was pretty good. Could have more cookies and add whipped cream, but that's my personal taste. My second trip on the advice of my boyfriend I got the bbq sandwich which you can get with Cole slaw on and then add their vinegar bbq sauce and that was WAY better!! The tangy and creamy together was great. I also go their 3 piece tender snack pack. Wow these tenders were enormous! I had to take them home. One was as big as my hand! Also shared a hotdog with slaw on it and that was meh. I wouldn't get that again didn't care for the hotdog wasn't big enough or juicy enough.

The Supreme Sauced Half Chicken is tossed in a special gochujang sauce (advertised as medium spicy). The sauce was sweet, savory, delicious, and perfectly spicy. It truly had the right amount of spice for me! It made my nose run a little bit (in a good way) but didn't blow my socks off. I was able to enjoy the flavors but had a good burn on the tongue. I got rice as my side. It was overcooked and boring, but the chicken was so good I honestly didn't care. I got rice just in case the sauce was too spicy for me and I needed something to soothe my tongue. When I eat here again, I'll get pickled radish as the side!

Chicken Bee is incredible Korean fried chicken, and it has never let me down…read more The chicken is always fried fresh, which means it comes out piping hot, insanely juicy, and perfectly crispy every single time. You can genuinely taste the difference when something is made to order like this. Whether you eat it right there in the H Mart food court or take it to go, the quality holds up. My go-to is the Spicy Garlic, which has fantastic flavor, bold, savory, and just the right level of heat without overpowering the chicken itself. The sauce clings perfectly to the crispy exterior while the inside stays tender and juicy. It's the kind of place you go back to again and again because it's reliable. No surprises, no drop-off in quality, just consistently great fried chicken done right. If you're a fan of Korean fried chicken or just great fried chicken in general, Chicken Bee is an absolute must.

I suspect this is how the crew that takes/assembles your order is trained:…read more A new batch of candidates are brought in. They take their positions on the line. The manager pulls out a live grenade, pulls the pin, tosses the grenade into a bowl and passes it to the first trainee. "Whitericeorbrown!!!" shouts the crewmate to the customer! Rice is then slapped into to the bowl. How much did you ask for? IT DOESN'T MATTER! THAT'S A LIVE GRENADE! "Doyouwantbeans?!? Blackorbrown?!?" Then an approximation of a request is splashed into the bowl, followed by, "Protein?!?" Then the bowl is passed along to the next crewmember before the grenade explodes. As the customer is attempting to answer ""Salsa?!?" that live grenade just keeps ticking down... so the next kid on the line has to jump in with "CHEESESOURCREAMGUAC?!?!?" while the next kid at the register is spitting out "ANYCHIPSWITHTHAT?!?" If they can complete the order, regardless of accuracy or quality, before that grenade goes off... well, they live to see another shift. If not... well then natural selection weeds out the weak. This is THE ONLY way I can explain the phenomena of ordering here. Don't you DARE try to slowly communicate an order in a reasonably civil pace and tone. Don't you dare! Dont you DARE expect the crew to prepare your food in a reasonably efficient, but carefully consistent manner. But seriously, I do not get it. Everytime I go through the line I feel like there's some emergency that only rapid-fire questions, slopping together my food and ignoring any specific or nuanced request can prevent. If it's slow... it's even worse for some reason! I'm not going to ding them on the dirty floors, the overflowing trash cans, the inventory just sitting in the dining room, because, this is a Chipolte. But I just do not understand how anyone can work here without having a meth-addiction or a panic attack. I get "hey crew, lets work efficiently!" but I just don't understand, "hey crew, I want you to speak so quickly that no one can process what you are saying, and I want you to just bark at the customers from multiple angles with multiple different questions, and I want you to pass that bowl down the line so quickly and slap this food in there so haphazardly that theres a REAL good chance that by the end of this process the food is just a sloppy pile of trash with no consistency whatsoever!!! LETS GO CREW!!!" I just don't get it... wouldn't it make more sense to just slow down, make people feel comfortable ordering, make the food right so that people feel... satisfied? But if they train the crew with live hand-grenades, then that all makes sense.
