    How could I eat here and not do a Yelp? I admit, I got it door dashed good from Chick-in-waffle when I'm 5 minutes away. The order was still warm and I enjoyed it. I loved the bubble waffle and wished I had ordered another. It was crispy and delicious. Albeit huge. The chicken was better seasoned than Crane's and I really enjoyed it. I ordered a second piece of chicken, thinking it was a chicken finger. It's not. It's almost an entire meal I do wish I'd gotten a second waffle. I don't trust restaurant maple syrup to be 100%, so I use mine. I ordered a frozen strawberry drink. This might have been ordering it from DoorDash, it was mostly melted. I've ordered slushies from other places, they are frozen. I'm so close to Chick in Waffle and will be ordering or visiting there again (and probably on repeat.)

    Mr. G. And I tried out Chick-in-Waffle tonight for dinner. I had the KC Chicken with a Bubble Waffle. Mr. G. Had the Memphis Chicken in a bunch, which comes with fries. The food was meh. Both Mr. G. and I thought the coating on the chicken was too hot, and the only flavor we got was paprika. Mr. G. Was more critical of his sandwich in that he thought it needed more coleslaw and would have liked to have a side of coleslaw. We both agreed the fries were excellent. My bubble waffle was good, but I doo wish I would have gone with the Belgian waffle. The BBQ sauce was KC Masterpiece, like. Service is order at the counter, and they bring it out to your table. They were speedy. The ambiance was somewhat industrial and drafty. There were three separate families and groups that sat at a table, then left to find different seating. We were pleased they had normal size chairs and tables and not booths. They also had bistro table seating, which I no longer find comfortable.

    The restaurant is in a great location! Across the street from Costco in Independence. There was plenty of parking, and it's in a nice strip mall, next to Crumbl Cookies! The restaurant has slick painted floors, the chairs are slippery against the floor, so be careful. They didn't have soda, the pop machine was not working. They had slushy frozen lemonade that was incredible. They had other types of teas, but no sugar packets and no artificial sweetener to offer. The water dispenser dispensed air temp water, and when you are looking forward to a cold drink, it's not a good thing. They did give me a cup with a few ice cubes, but I really wish their pop machine was working! The food: eh... I would venture to guess that their desserts are great, their waffles were crisp on the perimeter, but the glaze on the chicken made the rest of the waffle very soggy. More concerning was the texture of the chicken. I prefer fresh chicken that is breaded and fried. This chicken tasted like it was warmed up in the oven. I wasn't sure if these patties were a constructed patty or if they were a chicken breast that was filleted. It didn't have the right texture for fresh chicken. I enjoyed the parmesan flavor, but only for the first few bites. Fries were cold. For the Canadian Buffalo, these patties were topped with syrup-Buffalo sauce, cheese and chives. Again, on top of a waffle that was soggy. My husband wasn't able to even have more than 1 bite. It was extremely spicy, and the aftertaste was bitter. I did take my left overs home, but after driving in the car with them, I noticed a very distinct smell of bad oil. I threw away the leftovers. So why 3 stars and not 1? The service was good, the restaurant was clean, it was busy and people appeared as if they were having fun. The staff were very nice! They tried! The decor was fun, and I wish our dinners were up to par. I will probably try this place again, and I will order dessert this time. I also want to try their loaded fries. Price points: it was $30 including tip for 2 meals and a frozen lemonade, register prompts for 25%, 20% ,15% or custom. It's hard to tip prior to receiving food and service. Again; I will be back, and I will try a different item..

    very good service, loaded fries are always the best. very clean and friendly atmosphere.

    This place was so good! They have the friendliest staff who greet you when you walk in and check on you while you are eating to make sure everything is good, which it was so good. My husband and I got the Garlic Parmesan Sandwich meal and Chick-in Queso waffle and shared everything. Let's start with the Chick-in Queso Waffle. This was so delicious. We got the bubble waffle that had the perfect crispy and fluffy parts all together. The chicken was juicy and crispy and everything was a good balance of sweet and savory. The Sandwich meal was equally as good as the waffle. It had an amazing garlic parm sauce that made this sandwich. The fries were also absolutely delicious especially with the garlic parm sauce. We will definitely be going back to try different things

    Good quality chicken and I really like the bubble waffle. My son got the chicken strips and it was really good. Huge chicken strips and the fries were perfectly crispy. They also make their own chicken sauce and it's basically a better version of Cane's sauce. Service was fast and everyone was super nice. The interior is all KC themed and I always love supporting KC grown businesses.

    Decent food but missing a few key things. I visited on a Friday night and the place was not too busy. Service was quick and staff were friendly. I like the patio seating which gave a little upgrade to their laid back vibe. The Asian chili chicken was not crispy enough for me. I like extra crispy breading to enjoy that crunch in every bite. There also was not enough sauce for me. If I'm getting chicken tossed in sauce I want it all over my plate to really savor the flavor. The bubble waffle to me did not have as much sweetness as I'd like but I understand that this may have been to not draw too much away from the chicken flavor. Overall, I do think it's worth a try for their unique combinations.

    I had a very disappointing experience at Popeyes. I was charged extra for an additional chicken…read morebreast, but when I got home there was one tiny breast in the box at all. When I contacted the store to address the issue, the manager was extremely rude, nasty, and condescending instead of trying to resolve it professionally. I told him I would simply return the food for a refund, and his exact response was, "Don't waste your time, I'm not giving you your money back. Google it, I don't have to." He also refused to provide his name or the owner's contact information when I requested it. What made the situation even worse was the manager openly admitting he gave me "tiny pieces" because I used a coupon. That is completely unacceptable customer service. The size of the chicken was honestly shocking -- just look at the chicken compared to the biscuit in the photo, or the size of the drumstick in my hand, and I'm only 5 feet tall and 105 pounds. The portions were embarrassingly small. Customers should not be treated poorly or penalized for using valid coupons. I expected much better professionalism, honesty, and customer service from this location.

    Gus's is just good fried chicken with simple tasty sides…read more I came in with my step dad and brother on a weekday night and parking was ample outside + we were seated immediately. It wasn't particularly packed and the lighting was fairly soft, which was nice. The waitress got our orders and drinks our fairly quickly and with a friendly demeanor. I opted for the white meat, so I had a couple of juicy chicken breasts with some Mac & cheese + mashed potatoes. Yeah, it was a bit carb heavy, but it all worked well together. While the breading definitely has some spice to it, it was fairly weak by my standards and wasn't an issue. Nor did it cause any issues later. My poor step dad got a concentrated seasoning bit and he was about beside himself, but even he recovered shortly thereafter. Overall it was a good meal at a good price with good service. It's hard to beat that combination. So if you like a little spice with your fried chicken, Gus's is a good option.

    5 stars for Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken - WOW…read more One of the best meals that I've had in the area. I didn't try any of the chicken on my first visit, but did get to try the Catfish plate which was absolutely amazing. It was seasoned extremely well - and had a very nice spice and heat level to it. The fries were good and mac & cheese was excellent - super filling meal. Our server was very friendly and attentive and there's a ton of seating inside for dine in. I'd highly recommend a visit alone on the Catfish plate, but I will for sure be back next time I'm in town to try the fried chicken.
