The fries were delish, the ranch was very garlicky and fresh, nice dill flavor and tasted great with the fry seasoning. The chicken had great flavor, which is hard to come by in this town. The cook was very accommodating and had some amazing service, he said the chicken cutlets were a bit small and gave us 7 strips instead of 4, for the price of 4! Will 100% be going again and look forward to when we do.

I ordered the home style chicken burger and jalapeño poppers, both which were made fresh to order.

My only hiccup, the music is way too loud for such a small space. I can't wait to come back

I also love how there are no bones. I loved all the sauces you could choose to go with them. My only complaint is that you couldn't just buy an extra thigh as a side. I had to try it, but the meal was a bit much for me at lunch time. My boyfriend and I came for lunch one day, and it was so good we returned with our friends the next day so they could try it. Everyone, kids included really enjoyed their meal. We tried the thighs with a few different sides. The waffle fries and the corn bread were the standouts. I wanted to try a couple of the sandwiches or the bowl, but unfortunately we're sold out. I saw people eating them and they looked delicious. The only thing I didn't love were the wings. They were a bit greasy for me, but everything else was top notch. Only wish this place was open later, when I have more of an appetite for fried food. Great place for a quick bite and the views at the end of the road are spectacular.

=== 1. VERDICT/VALUE For those used to the Popeyes…read morelocations in the US, the menu is slightly different and the chicken pieces a little smaller - other than that, it's nearly identical and great if you like the taste of Popeyes chicken! === 2. FOOD We got the usual order of eight pieces of all dark-meat chicken for $26, half spicy and half not. The flavour profile is identical to that of the US-based Popeyes locations. The price is a little higher than that of the US, and the sides and desserts are a little different, but it's the same otherwise. === 3. SERVICE It's always busy every time we come here; however, the staff seem to be on top of things. Waiting for your takeout order is a little strange though, as there's not much of a waiting area without intruding on dine-in customers. === 4. ENVIRONMENT It matches the current corporate requirements for decor; there are a few tables around the sides of the restaurant and you're likely best to keep your group to medium or small in size. It's been a little hot/stuffy every time we've come here, which differ from other Popeyes locations in Canada and the US, so that may need attention. Wheelchairs and baby strollers fit easily. Parking can be tricky as the ground level of the Tuscany Village complex is typically busy - so good luck or look for parking underground.

After our order was ready someone got up and left so we were able to sit down but the tables weren't getting cleaned off in between people. I don't know if this is due to the quick turnaround of people trying to get a seat. The burgers weren't bad but nothing really special. Just an average burger. I accidently ordered the super burger and man, that thing is massive. I could only finish half of it. It was almost the size of my face. There wasn't much sauce on it. It was a pretty dry burger. The fries are good. The mozzarella sticks would have been ok if they had a better "marinara sauce" tomato paste is not marinara sauce. It made it a little unpleasant to eat. I love tomatoes just not tomato paste. Our order came out within 15 min despite being very busy. If I came back I would probably try some different menu items.
