    Flounder Plate with Fries, Slaw and 3 Hushpuppies
    Matthew T.

    We get an awesome-tasting meal for a great price every time. Tasty chicken. Delicious sandwiches. Fast service. Charlotte has Price's Chicken Coop. Gastonia has Chicken King. This spot of Chicken King is actually a location of a small chain based in Charlotte. Ample parking. Almost adjacent to the new FUSE stadium in west Gastonia. Solid affordable prices. Currently no seating due to COVID but they used to have a few tables in the front.

    Just discovered Chicken King a few months ago. The Grilled Chicken Salad and Greek Salad are great. The chicken is grilled with Greek seasoning. The Gyro was excellent, and I really like the Chicken Pita! Remember to spring for the Tzatziki (cha-cheeky) sauce! It's fantastic! The fries that accompany most orders are your typical crinkle cuts with a little bit of seasoning on them. They are nothing to write home about but they are usually hot. I see a lot of folks ordering wings, fried chicken, and the fish plate here, but I haven't worked my way through all of the menu yet. The building is an old gas station that has been painted bright orange on the outside. There is not much sit-in ambiance but it is good place to grab something hot, fast, and tasty. The salads are high on iceberg lettuce but provide somewhat of a healthy alternative. I have three friends who regularly get the salads here and they swear by them.

    Stopped by on my lunch to get a chef salad. Tabels not cleaned off so decided to get my food to go.

    Salads and food are always fresh, hot and delicious. The dine in area could use some updati g. Their shrimp and fish plates are great, but i got a chef salad this time which was also delicious as usual. Quick service.

    Great food every time! I recommend the chicken Philly or the calabash shrimp. So good! And the employees are very friendly.

    Food was amazing! Excellent presentation and portion size…read more Best Philly Steak we ever had pasta salad as side was perfection. Grilled Shrimp Avacado salad was awesome. Taste on point, size great, veggies fresh! Used Uber Eats while visiting family for health reasons and this was the perfect meal!

    In the pursuit of excellence, one must often look past the surface to find the substance. At…read moreChex's, the surface is undeniably polished. The establishment boasts an aesthetically chic interior, anchored by "marble" tables that, while regrettably small, contribute to an atmosphere of modern cleanliness. This commitment to hygiene is not merely a feeling; it is a matter of public record, as evidenced by their impeccable 100.0 sanitation rating. However, a critic knows that a clean house does not always guarantee a feast. The kitchen was manned by a skeleton crew of only two workers, while a third handled the front register--a staffing reality that telegraphed an inevitable wait from the moment of entry. While waiting, my gaze was frequently drawn to the refrigerator behind the counter, where large, tempting slices of red velvet cake stood like alluring sirens. The meal itself was a study in contradictions. The fries were a standout: fried to a structural crisp and dusted with a unique seasoning that provided a sophisticated "tang". Unfortunately, the Mozzarella Sticks failed to reach such heights... $7.99 for six, they were decidedly mediocre and hardly worth the price point, accompanied by a measly two-ounce cup of marinara sauce. The true tragedy, however, lay in the wings. While the portion sizes were undeniably generous, boasting an impressive amount of flats, the sauce was a disappointment. As the visual evidence confirms, the sauce lacked emulsification, leaving the wing to languish in a pool of separated oil. This scarcity extended to the condiments: I was provided only a single two-ounce cup of ranch to split between seven wings, a mountain of fries, and six pieces of celery. The Verdict: Chex's Grill & Wings is a place of diligent effort: I observed the front-counter worker spending their downtime meticulously tidying the lobby. Yet, for all its cleanliness and five large-screen distractions, the culinary execution remains inconsistent. It is a masterclass in visual presentation, but it requires more depth in the sauce and a bit more generosity in the portioning of its sauces. Rating: 3/5 Stars

    I was one of those people who looked at the reviews of this place and said to myself "I won't go…read morethere", but we stopped by and let me tell you the food was great! Our server Brittany was awesome. The inside is so cool, they have bands that come in at night, we will definitely go back!

    Disappointing Experience - Won't Be Returning…read more I've been a regular at this place to watch NFL games and have always enjoyed the good food and generally great service. However, after today's visit, I'm sad to say I won't be returning. The day started off well, as usual. Our server, Kaitlyn, whom we've had many times before, started things off great by taking our drink orders and bringing out our chicken sliders appetizer quickly, which were delicious. But then everything took a frustrating turn. It took a long time for Kaitlyn to come back to take our main order, and we watched her take orders from tables that arrived after us. When our food finally came out--just four minutes before halftime--it was good, but I received only half a tiny cup of ranch with my wings. Kaitlyn said she'd bring more when the kitchen made more ranch. Unfortunately, that never happened. I saw her deliver food to other tables with plenty of ranch while I was still waiting. To make matters worse, my tea ran out and I chewed through all my ice trying to get her attention, which seemed like an inconvenience for her. When I finally got her attention, she gestured for me to wait while she helped the next table. Fifteen minutes later, with my wings now cold, I ended up getting ranch from the bar myself. She came back another 15 minutes later with more ranch, but at that point, it was too late. I did leave a $6 tip because she seated us quickly, but the rest of the experience was a disaster. Unfortunately, after today, I won't be coming back.
