    Mac and cheese chicken
    Jennifer M.

    I could see why people like this but I certainly didn't. Their Mac and cheese chicken looked like throw up and had way too much sauce.

    Some of the best hot chicken in Reno! I have been coming to this location for about two years now and have always walked always saying it's some of the best fries in town. Very well seasoned and huge portions! The service is always very fast and on point with a special requests I make. This location is their newest one but it's always very clean inside and staff is super nice!!!

    This is how Yelp Elite events help family owned businesses long term. We are hardly ever in the South of Reno, but I found myself scrolling thru Yelp looking for somewhere to eat. We are familiar with Crazy D's from the events at the original shop, and knew we couldn't go wrong. Just like everywhere the prices have gone up, but the quality and quantity are still great. 3 people around $60, but that was everything, and we all had leftovers. Congratulations on the new locations, including the onE near UNR.

    Crazy hot? Yeah but don't be afraid because it's delicious. No lie. I was asked about changing my order no less than 6 times, and after watching the cook make my order with a shirt over his nose, I thought about it, but it proved to be perfect for me, just as I remembered before. Now I won't recommend crazy to anyone who says "oh I like spicy" because this is another level of heat and you need to be prepared. You'll smell it before you see it. You'll feel it before you eat it. And it'll linger with you for quite a while. But it's a pleasurable pain that builds on itself as you enjoy it, and when combined with their house sauce, it fades to the perfect background note of fire I love in spicy food. Smelling the aromas of the fiery seasoning on the ride home had me a bit teary eyed, both from the anticipation of the food I'd be enjoying and the super spice level I chose, and admittedly I was a bit nervous! That was amped up after licking my fingers from placing the giant tenders in the air fryer to warm up, being met by a wave of heat I wasn't quite ready for I guess. But after cutting the tenders up (recommended just because they're massive) I loved every bite of them! So if you think you can handle the heat then crazy it up, otherwise enjoy it how you like it!

    It's good to try different chicken sandwich places to compare. Crazy D's has a thick, breaded chicken with a kick to it. We got the mild spice, and I can't imagine what the hot is like. The fries are good when fresh, and they give some dressing with it. Yum! It's a different kind of chicken sandwich, so you just have to give it a try!

    Revised: Crazy D's sells fried chicken tender sandwiches. Giant spicy ones. I ordered mine mild but it was still too spicy for me. I guess I could order it without sauce next time and see if I like it. Also, I wish this chicken had a lighter batter. Usually I prefer less batter, but I'm sure others like the crunch. Just a personal preference. On a positive note, the fries were good, the cashier was friendly and the seating area was clean and comfortable.

    Love love love their chicken. Nicely seasoned and the spice is on point. I always get combo #2 medium for $15.95+tax. It's honestly a good price since it's 2 sandwiches and some fries. My husband and I always share. Their comeback sauce is so delicous, that I definitely have to order an extra. Their employees are welcoming and attend to you quickly. It's a small restaurant but it's still a good place to take a group of 6 people. I definitely recommend this local hot chicken spot!

    Disappointing. Last two times I've had Crazy D has been a let down, especially paying nearly $19 for the meal. The portion size has went down, they should change the pricing to reflect it. Crazy Mac was watery and lacked flavor. As you can see in the picture, the plate wasn't even covered. Both times the food was cold, like the Mac and cheese was in the fridge and scooped out. Big let down from a good spot. Don't know if they changed ownership or management, but quality needs to improve.

    Combo #1- 2 Giant Tenders with Fries

    Crazy D's has absolutely delicious chicken, I don't know what they put in their sauce but it is soooo good! Amazing on the sliders and the fries. The portions are very generous and the chicken is so juicy and tender. You can customize your spice level, I personally love the hot. If you haven't been here before, definitely give this place a try!!

    "Surprisingly Good". If you told me I would find good fried chicken at a gas station, let's just…read moresay I would smile and nod politely and completely dismiss what you just said. LOL. That would be a mistake about Krispy Krunchy Chicken, located INSIDE the 76 station at Mt Rose Hwy and Thomas Creek. We ordered the 4 piece Meal, to give a try. The meal came with dark meat only, with two drumsticks and two (huge) thighs. We ordered the Red Beans and Rice, and the meal came with their sweet biscuit. The chicken pieces were, well, just huge. The chicken was juicy. The skin was rich with flavor and had a crispy snap. Delicious. The chicken must be injected with some "secret recipe" because all the pieces had a reddish tint to the juices inside. I'm all for it. While the chicken was pretty good, the same can't be said about the sides. The Red Beans and Rice, was some kind of beans topped with white rice. This dish certainly did not scream "New Orleans" to me. The Mashed Potatoes and gravy, while generous in portion lacked a level of texture and flavor to be considered good. The biscuit was topped with a honey glaze. I'm sure some with like the sweetness but for me, not the best biscuit (by far) That said, if we are looking for good fried chicken, Krispy Krunchy Chicken is a solid option. I would just pass on the sides.

You can also order grilled tenders - I prefer the fried. I've tried their fries, fried pickles and Mac n cheese, which have all been tasty. The tenders have always been juicy and I enjoy the garlic parmesan dipping sauce. And for a special treat the Cherry Cheesecake Jar Dessert is super yummy!

They just add some spicy seasoning to the regular chicken. This doesn't allow even coverage. If the breading was a spicy breading mixture versus spicy seasoning it would work better. Some of my chicken had no spicy seasoning and some one piece seemed to have most of it in one spot. I do think their tenders are some of the smaller pieces compared to other chicken places. I also tried the key lime dessert, it was so sweet I couldn't have more then one bite.

The service was absolutely terrible. I had placed an online order for lunch. The employee at Raising Cane's said we needed to come inside to fill up the 9 sodas, and that it was rude to expect them to fill up the sodas on a large order. We kept this order simple and all the sodas were the same. We told her that the line was so long, she'll have plenty of time to get them ready by the time we got to the window. It seems out of spite she filled all the cups to the tip top with ice, and I kid you not, 3 sips of soda in the cups. Also one of the meals we got only had about 10 French fries, and the Cole slaw was dry cabbage with no dressing. The services was horrible, the experience was horrible, the food and drink as a result was a disappointment. There was no customer service or consideration during this whole process, and left a bitter taste. Will not be going back any time soon to be treated like an inconvenience by the staff.

We will most definitely be back. The burger in particular was what impressed us both. The quality of the meat was impeccable, delicious flavor, with a nice crispy sear. He let me sneak a bite, and the patty just melts in your mouth. I have no complaints or changes I would make to the burger. The service was so friendly and fast! They were very helpful in choosing what to order! The bison comes from their ranch in Wyoming, the owners brother runs the ranch! The elk comes from a group of family farms they have been doing business with for over 40 years in New Zealand. (Wow!) And the in house ground beef is mostly Niman ranch and Creekstone farms. I don't think you will find a better burger in Reno! We sat inside on their bar stool seating, but there's lots of other seating available outside! The inside has a very modern and elegant feel!

I was even impressed by the fries! Super crispy and well seasoned. The chicken tenders were not overcooked, as you find at many places. The chicken was still very moist while maintaining a crispy exterior. Great choice for your butchery needs, but also a great place to grab some very tasty lunch!
