    Chicken and onion rings
    Abhilash T.

    I feel as if you can't go wrong with the shack. The chicken is amazing, it's perfectly crispy without too much batter. Places with an extraordinary amount of batter on their chicken are unnecessary. The onion rings with cocktail sauce are so good! I know everyone loves the potatoes but I feel like it's the one thing that's never consistent for me. More often than not, it's just loads of butter but no salt. And that was the only reason this was four stars instead of five. But it's still amazing, overall!

    2020-07-10. Chicken Shack, New Baltimore. I'm not normally out in this area, but we happened to be passing by and we had a late breakfast, skipped lunch, so needed an early dinner. This location is a stand alone building with it's own parking lot. I recall Chicken Shack chicken being decent, and they're potatoes greasy and buttery. Pulling into a parking spot, I saw that their dining room is open. With COVID-19 still a threat, I didn't see as many precautions as many other restaurants, so we ordered carry out. There was no hand sanitizer, their drinks were still self serve, as were the condiments and utensils. The dining tables were not social distanced, but there were no patrons dining in so it didn't seem that big an issue. I did notice that the table surfaces were not clean, so from a COVID perspective, I'd be a little more cautious. The staff did wear face masks and they do offer delivery via Grub Hub. We passed on the drinks and utensils based on the open air exposure, and ordered a couple of family meals. An 8 pcs family meal with potatoes, and a fish filet meal with coleslaw. Total damage was about $25 and we had enough to feed 4-6. The chicken was as I remembered, crispy on the outside, next to no fat under the skin, and the meat not dried out. The only change was the size of the pieces, they seemed smaller than I remembered. 4 stars. The breasted potatoes were greasy, and not as buttery as I remembered them. The skins were still nice and crispy and the potato center soft and fluffy. Still very decent 4 stars. The fish was lightly battered and drop fried. We went with the classic cod filets vs the English pub style fish fingers. The filets were shaped like V's, the kind Captain Highliner makes. But the cod was cod and was nice and meaty. The cook on it was just a tad overdue as it was starting to dry out a bit. The tartar sauce was Heinz in a packet. Nothing to write home about here. 3 stars. The coleslaw was a tiny cup. Creamy style and on the sweet side. Not bad though, just needed more of it considering it was a side and not a garnish. 3 stars. Overall, a solid 3,5 stars. They could have better precautions during this time of the pandemic, so I'm knocking the down rather than bumping them up. 3 stars overall. If You would like to experience more, come dine-with-me.yelp.com I'd love to have your company... Bon Appétit!

    Our family loves the food at Chicken Shack, and our dinner tonight was delicious as usual. Unfortunately, we went in to order our food and were greeted by a young man with a face mask barely covering his mouth. When I glanced around at the other four or five employees serving up the food, I realized only one had both his nose and mouth covered by his mask, and one wasn't wearing one at all. I mentioned that to the guy at the register, and he didn't even acknowledge my statement. Very rude and unsafe conditions in my opinion.

    Called in an order they told me 30 minutes. Okay that's not bad. I went to the drive through to pick up my order. The drive through worker told me to pull up to the window. There was one car in front of me. After waiting in the drive through for over 20 minutes I decided to go around and go inside. The girl couldn't figure out the change finally gave me my food. I mentioned the drive through and she told me I should have rang the doorbell to remind them. Got home and my food is warm at best. They have changed the breading on the chicken bites and they are now disgusting. This Chicken Shack has really gone downhill.

    I actually prefer Chicken Shack wings over any competitor. The chicken wings are larger and meatier than anywhere else I have gone within a 15 mile radius. The serving size for the dinner is 10-12 pieces with a side and a roll for around $12 with tax. Not a bad price if you ask me. The location of the place is a bit odd and the parking is a nightmare, there is also NO handicap parking which is annoying particularly when my mom is with me. Not a big deal otherwise. Pro tip, if you call ahead your wait time is reduced, since all chicken is made to order. I have never dined in although every time I have gone the seating area is somewhat clean. I always ask for extra butter with the broasted potatoes, it's a preference thing. Cashiers have all been accommodating and what you would expect at a place like this. Not overly friendly but not out right unpleasant. For the most part my chicken is always cooked to perfection as well as the potatoes. The butter they use is seasoned and gives the potatoes that irresistible taste that is extremely addicting. Only twice has my chicken felt slightly under cooked (I don't mean pink meat I mean crispiness) and I had to stick them in the oven to get them crispy, one of these times my potatoes were also under cooked. No real major complaints otherwise. I do wish their sides menu was a bit more extensive perhaps adding a couple more vegetable options would be great. Ohhh and if a chicken place that makes chicken this good would add chicken gizzards and chicken livers, I would be in chicken heaven.

While we were waiting for our food (which only took a few minutes!), Alberto brought us drinks to try, went to each table that was eating to make sure they were enjoying everything, informed us about all the specials throughout the week, and answered any questions we had. He overheard us talking about the chicharron and threw one in our bag too so we could try! This is the best, most authentic Mexican I've had in all of Michigan! The inside is small, but very clean and welcoming. Even if you're not from the area, I would say it's worth the drive! I cannot recommend this place enough. Make sure to stop by and support them!

We ordered it for lunch at work one day, and we were all impressed by the authentic Mexican tacos, and the portion sizes, which were very generous. The homemade salsas were really good, too. That was my first experience. I told my family about it, and we placed an order on a Saturday afternoon. My son picked it up, and came back with a couple of free items; a few churros, which were absolutely delicious, and a guava Agua Fresca, which was one the the best tasting drinks I have ever had. The man who takes the orders and runs the register is very friendly and kind. We have ordered from Dos Locos Burritos four times now, and the food has been consistently good, and freshly prepared every time. The burritos are HUGE, and filled with delicious ingredients. All of the meats we have tried have been very tasty. We have ordered the Mexican style tacos, burritos (regular and Locos Style), chimis, quesadillas, horchata, Agua Fresca, and chips and salsa. Everything has been delicious. The interior is small with a few tables, but it's really clean and nicely kept. There is a stainless steel cooled serving unit with salsas in it to the left of the register in the front that has soufflé cups with lids that you can fill with salsa for your order. The prices are mid-range, but I don't mind spending $15.00 on a burrito when that burrito is huge, and filled with high-quality, freshly prepared ingredients. The amount of food you get is absolutely worth the price you pay. I highly recommend Dos Locos Burritos!

I kinda fell out of love and then moved north and it was never worth going there. I even worked at a Taco Bell for a time many years ago. Del Taco is even farther but I still make a point to go here once a week or so. The food options are varied, but I usually go with the Ground Turkey Tacos and a Spicy Chicken Taco. My nephew's have enjoyed their burgers and my fiancee usually gets their bean burrito. The food is always fresh and it just tastes cleaner than Taco Bell. The portions are also nice with tacos that are full of flavor and fries that I like so much I don't even use ketchup or any sauces. Btw, their spiciest sauce packets are better and spicier than Taco Bell's. The service is generally good. There's an employee or two who don't have that positive service mentality but overall it's better than usual. The venue is usually clean but certain times or employees can make this vary. I heard a manager once ask an employee duo to clean the main area where we were dining. After she left, they just kept talking and ignored the request. So there is effort the be made there. I have occasionally gotten a mini shake which is pretty tasty and I love their iced tea option. Fun atmosphere and enjoyable food make this a local staple despite the drive. Though avoid coming in off Gratiot as the entrance is just poor. Coming in off 23 mile and driving through the parking lot is preferred.

This lovely creation rests on a sheet of aluminum foil, so you know it's gonna be good. I'm a sucker for good old sloppy bar food and Motor Cafe fires on all cylinders. Love the overly beer-battered chicken fingers, and garlic parm wings. Good hamburgers. Deep fried oreos too. Salads looked HUGE. There's lots of daily specials and a big old 80's Ritz-like bar too. Prices were very reasonable considering the entrenched inflation all over America. Service was great. Very down to earth people. Tip them good. Keep your expectations in check. Inside it's a cavernous warehouse. Seriously, it's huge like echos in the canyon. So big, your crazy kids could swing in the rafters. If your looking for warm and cozy consider Applebees instead. There's a degree of bowling alley seediness, a touch of carnival, and an air of anxious fun. See the fat people in bad t-shirts, smell the bleach-beer, hear the clunk of distant bowling pins. Taste the beef. This is real America. I love it. Bonus: Architectural remnants of the former Mt. Clemens Drive-In decorate the place. I frequented such for over three decades. Last film I saw there was "Casper The Friendly Ghost" (1995).
