Big chonkin cheese sticks
Melody H.

Oh my god. I was traveling Route 66, and this is a place you can get your Route 66 passport stamped!!! We were sort of in a hurry so we got the cheesesticks to split. Oh MY GOD. Best cheese sticks I have ever had in my LIFE. I found out when I used the restroom that they brought us an extra order by accident and my family SENT IT BACK. I was devastated I would have eaten more. Please PLEASE get the cheese sticks. I hope to return to try more chicken dishes!!!

Broasted chicken with jalapeño  cornbread...aka plain cornbread.

Went there for a late lunch. Saw two other tables with people eating. The place was almost empty. It was very decorated very rustic inside. Got the gizzards and fries and broasted chicken with jalapeño cornbread. The gizzards are really, really good! The fries are crispy on the outside. If they would have been served hot, they would have been perfect. They were just warm. The broasted chicken was very flavorful! The jalapeño cornbread was disappointing. That's the reason for 4 stars instead of 5. I could see green slices in the cornbread, but not spicy and no pepper flavor at all. Why call it jalapeño cornbread if you can't taste the jalapeño at all? The bathroom needed some care. Service was nice and friendly.

There are two parts of the chicken shack, one is amazing and the other not as great. The shack is amazing, but the chicken is not as much. I love the shack. It is truly a huge and amazing place. The bar is amazing and there is even an upstair seating area when it's busy. The outside area is even better, spacious and beautiful. There was live music playing, but I am not sure if it's also available on weekdays or not. The shack was crowded on this particular Sunday afternoon. Most customers visit from nearby towns as Arcadia has a population of less than 200. The fried chicken was okay. Crispy and crunchy skin, yes, but it was too salty. The location in Luther, which is closed, also tasted the same. Some chicken pieces were not juicy, especially the breasts. Comparing Chicken Shack with Eischen's Bar is like comparing apples to oranges. It is a great looking restaurant/bar though.

They have excellent chicken strips with gravy sauce, and their Mac-and-cheese is also stellar. A somewhat historic institution just off of the Historic Route 66 in Arcadia, OK, they have sit-down service and also take-out. I opted for the take out, and got their chicken strips meal (nice service) but had to wait for 15-20 minutes, which I spent checking out the nearby historic locales. There was a man selling peanut brittle who only took cash - which I didn't have one me- so I will bring physical currency next time to buy and sample his wares. There is also a related/associated "Pizza Shack" next door. Definitely recommended!

i had never been here before and my family really likes it, so naturally i was quite excited! the vibe of the space is cool, it fits in with the rest of the town. very classic, a bit dark but i get it. our large party was seated with plenty of space, so that was nice. our server was polite and took our orders quickly, no problem in that regard. i'll try to keep this short: while our server was working hard to keep up with our large party, the system she was following, or lack thereof, failed her. no seat numbers and seemingly zero system for the food runners made her job so difficult, i felt terrible for her. my order came out wrong the first time and the runners forgot my side the second time. i had to ask for it multiple times. again, i don't think it's their fault, it's their system. this is a manager/owner issue. i got the spicy chicken sandwich and my wife got some tenders and sides. she really enjoyed hers! mine felt very uninspired and dry. granted, i know this place isn't known for its chicken sandwich but it felt like there was no effort to make it presentable. chicken was cooked well and had good flavor but a lack of sauce/toppings made it uninteresting and definitely not worth the price. would come back if my family was going, but wouldn't on my own. $0.95 for sauces is kinda wild too. place has lots of potential but if the service issue isn't fixed it will cause major issues.

The wonderful family Gomez brought us so amazing catfish!! It was DELICIOUS!!

Family Gomez brought us some delicious catfish!! I will be driving to the restaurant to have more!!!

I'm not a golfer, I've golfed and I've been to the driving range but it's just not for me! However, I have found out some of the best food is served at golf courses. Since I was eating solo I sat at the bar. The menu was intriguing and I had to give some thought as to what I wanted to try. I knew I wanted a sandwich or burger so I went back and forth between the Club Sandwich, the French Dip, Pulled Pork, and the burgers. I finally decided I'm at The Lookout why not just go with the signature Lookout Burger. It was delicious, the smoky bacon stuck out the most along with the pimento cheese! The burger was nice and juicy. The only negative was the bun! It just didn't hold up to the burger. The fries were good as I asked for them to be crispy! I sat in front of a fully stocked bar but this was only a lunch break and I had to return to work. Madison was the person behind the bar and she was delightful! After I finished and she brought the tab we discussed best options for lunch, her top choice was the French Dip. That being one of my favorite sandwiches I must return to try it out! This being a golf course restaurant one would naturally see a lot of the golf theme. However, you don't have to golf to enjoy some good food! I would highly recommend giving this place a try!

After a tough start to the week, I had a craving for good food and good company. A lovely friend…read moreand I finally squeezed in a day/time together and just so happened to discover this decent eatery! It was Wednesday, May 7th. I arrived around 6:20pm and though the host sat me, I decided to take a stroll around the "neighborhood" since my date hadn't arrived yet. It was a lovely day, probably around 74º, shady skies with just enough sun. I walked around their back-side patio which was fully equipped with artificial turf, jumbo Jenga, plenty of seating picnic tables and had a huge projector screen for any prime-time game. There were also other eateries (outside bar, ice-cream station, and other restaurants) that accessed the same area. It was very inviting! I continued the walk and wrapped around the block to notice that the row of restaurants/bars were all home-themed. It was very college-like. I landed back in my seat and about 5mins later my friend arrived. We sat at the first two-top high-table near the bar close to the entrance. There were about 2 servers, a host and 2 bartenders to accompany the small crowd. We had a young man as a server and her treated us well. Neither of us had eaten there before so he provided us with a few recommendations but ultimately said, "ya can't go wrong." And he was right! We ordered the Crispy Chicken Sliders, Salt & Pepper Fries, Mango Thai Chili and the BBQ Honey Red Curry, both boneless (her suggestion). We chatted for what only seemed like a few minutes before our food arrived. Not going to lie, the appearance of the food wasn't mind-blowingly irresistible but it's not the looks that matters most. Normally I stay away from boneless wings because you don't know how thick the breading will be and the breading-to-sauce ratio is often never quite balanced but I was incredibly impressed at how juicy and proportionate the wings were! They each were a mouthful and tasted wonderfully. Even though they were both great, I think the Mango Chili may have won over the BBQ Curry. The sliders were about what you'd expect, a solid entrée but the bread was the best feature. The fries were as expected as well, very Buffalo Wild Wing -esque (with ranch). Overall, I spent $40 for two and still left with food in-hand, WELL worth it. We stuck around to watch the ending of Game 2 of the Eastern Conference semi-finals (Celtics vs Knicks) but really I was too stuffed to do much else. The backside patio is a vibe. It has covered seating, plenty of space and is very pet & child friendly. Establishments like this prove that you don't have to spend much to eat good and have a good time.

This place is in an industrial areas and we went in a Saturday. It was super clean. The tables were organized well. Based on the inside environment I would imagine it's loud if it's packed. I ordered the large wings combo. You can get two seasonings. I got mango habanero and lemon oepper. The wings were cooked perfectly. The fries were amazing. The o lot reason for four stars instead of five is for two reasons. First it smelled a bit like cigarette smoke when we came in. I used to smoke cigarettes so I know the smell. Second. Drinks are cans and bottles only. Despite these things I'll be back bathe food was really good. Prices were a little high but I expect that slightly from small businesses.

The tenders was over cooked and seemed old. My food was ready when we went to pick up so no long wait. Place was clean inside but I doubt I will be back.
