    Chicken gizzards and chicken breast
    Wish H.

    Awesome as usual. Even in full swing Sunday rush after church this restaurant knows how to handle service with a smile.. well run machine... if you don't know you should.. everything tastes homemade and I haven't had anything I didn't like. For a quick service restaurant they know what they're doing.

    2-piece fried chicken. You get one smaller piece and one HUGE piece, two sides and a bisky.

    Wow. I had heard things and this place lived up to the hype. The fried chicken is probably what I will order every single time. Chicken has great flavor, crunchy crust, and is juicy as all get out. Also love the Cole slaw. The potato salad was a meh for me unfortunately as was the pecan pie (too saucey and sweet). But omg yall.., that CHOCOLATE PIE. It is out of this world. Even if you only go for some chicken and choc pie, it's worth the trip! The interior does get quite busy at lunch time, line forms and seating grows sparse, so plan accordingly if you want to dine-in!

    The chicken is soooo goooood! Very busy on a Saturday night, but the wait wasn't too long. The price it reasonable for some great food!

    This is truly a hidden gem in Niceville, FL! No wonder people drive hours for there fried chicken once word gets out! They have weekly daily specials too that change often. All of there pricey are super budget friendly to feed the entire family. The fried chicken is straight up delicious! No crazy recipes or added ingredients here. It's literally straight fried chicken with skin on lightly battered. Its super moist inside and so crispy. Every single side is delicious too. The total winner is the mash potatoes and omg that gravy is addictive. It's savory whitish creamy sauce that goes good on everything! But you can't go wrong with the BBQ beans, chicken dumplings, slaw or green beans. Don't forget your delicious sweet tea here too! It's got the perfect balance of sweetness to fresh tea flavor. For the specialty menu the fried fish is an absolutely must try that's only available on Thursdays and comes with two sides. These are like little fish sticks with the crispy batter. Least favorite item we got to try was the fried shrimp. It's more like popcorn shrimp then large fried shrimp.

    Chicken Finger Dinner
    Vee R.

    After several locals and nearby people raved about this place to my mom, we gave it a try. The first visit, she tried the gizzards. They were hot but they were tough. Not tinder at all. The second visit, we both got food. I ordered the chicken finger dinner with fries and slaw and she got the four wing special with fries. Spent damn near 17 dollars. They played with my money. Keep reading and you will see how. The fries were salty as all get out which made them inedible. Might as well had just poured salt in my hand and licked it. Fries were in a small bag like McDonald's small paper bag fries. They were hot though. I'll give them that credit. Didn't taste the cole slaw but when I pulled it out and saw the size of it, it was comical. It was about the size of a listerine cap. (Ok maybe not that small but I was tiny.) Chicken fingers? Must be the grinch chicken fingers because that's what they looked like. The "fingers" were so skinny. They had clearly been sitting under the warmer for a while and they were EXTRA greasy. I felt nothing but disrespect when I saw those chicken fingers. They are really getting over and robbing people. Then they have the nerve to give you what looks like a "lot" but if you put them all together you probably, barely have TWO REAL chicken fingers. Let's move on to the wings... Did they let the bird mature first? They were baby wings. I felt so bad for the bird. The wings were no bigger than my pinky. They were hard and dried out. They too had been sitting under the warmer for a while. I saw a few other reviews about the portion sizes and the prices not equating and I have to agree. It's ridiculous. We did bring the food back for a refund. The manager didn't seem to care either. Both experiences were disappointing. Definitely will NOT be coming back. Might as well gone on to a chain chicken place. It'll be cheaper and taste a whole lot better.

    Sides: Mashed Potatoes, Gravy, Coleslaw, & BBQ Beans

    Great local fried chicken joint! We've been going here since living in Niceville, and we have never chosen KFC or Popeye's over Danny's. They serve great portions of fried chicken... super crunchy on the outside and juicy & well cooked in the inside! The sides are delicious too. We've tried almost all their sides. You can't go wrong with any one of them. My only concern is that their gravy needs more seasoning, but we still love getting an extra side of it! My favorite side to get is the BBQ baked beans though. Sooo good! Their service is pretty fast too! Literally order and get your food within just a few minutes. Really tastes like good home cookin'!

    Southern food includes Meat-and-Three restaurants, barbeque, fried ANYthing, fresh caught fish, and…read morehunted game. Hominy, hush puppies, cornbread, grits, Alabama white sauce on any meat, especially smoked chicken, are all popular in Alabama. BBQ is practically a religion in the South! As former certified Kansas City Barbeque Society (KCBS) certified judges, my husband and I completed the training and paid the fees to be certified. The "KCBS way" is different from a lot of people's preferences in that, for example, a BBQ rib should actually have some "pull" to it, meaning, when you bite into it, your mouth should leave a mark in the rib. This means "fall off the bones" ribs are not KDBS quality, despite how many love that rib consistency. The KCBS judges slots fill up so quickly and required us to travel at our own cost and we did not judge any KCBS events. Back to Southern food. Deep fried double Oreos are one of the many fried foods here in Huntsville, and Melt restaurant features them on their menu. Meat-and-Three restaurants feature a meat (usually fried pork chop, meatloaf, BBQ, fried catfish, country fried steak/chicken) and three sides (fried okra, creamed corn, mashed potatoes and gravy, baked potato, potato salad, cole slaw, French fries) and bread options such as cornbread, rolls, hush puppies. While Southern Cooking is absolutely delicious, I have to limit it because lets face it, it is high in calories and cholesterol. When I do indulge, it's shrimp and grits, pimento cheese, fried green tomatoes, and fried whole okra.

    This is really a Rouses grocery store with an excellent deli area. I like that the meats and…read moreofferings are fresh.

    The place is a cozy, older styled southern restaurant with lots of charm. The waitress we had - I…read morecannot remember her name - was extraordinary and took such good care of my family and I. Three out of four of us had ordered the hamburger steaks and while we waited our waitress checked in on us, refilled drinks multiple times, and kept updating her with the status of our order. We ended up waiting for about 30 minutes when our waitress came back and informed us that the kitchen failed to communicate that they were actually completely out of hamburger steaks. She was super apologetic, asked if there was anything else we wanted, and immediately offered compensation for the issue. We all ordered something else and she got the order in as quickly as possible, came back to check in on us some more, and got her manager to comp one of our meals and some pies for us. The food came out maybe 20 minutes later and everything was hot and fresh. The fried okra was SO GOOD and the chicken was basically falling off the bone. The toast, as seen in the picture, got a little burnt, but my husband had no complaints when he ate it. Overall, our meals were great, the pies were delicious, and the customer service form the waitresses and manager was phenomenal. The being said, this restaurant would 100% be 5 stars for me had the kitchen been communicating with the waitresses. However, they did not and it caused so much unnecessary issues for the waitresses and caused a long wait time for food during my families visit. All in all, this place is worth the try especially for the price point!

    JackaCuda's is a seafood and sushi restaurant located in Destin, Florida. We stopped in for lunch…read morebecause most of the other restaurants were too crowded. This restaurant was completely empty, which was definitely not a great sign. Regardless, we were happy to be seated and decided to stay and dine-in. First off, this restaurant, aesthetically, is very nice. It's decorated well and has a large bar. Our server happened to be the bartender, Keith. He was friendly but it was obvious they were desperate for business. He almost never left our table. It is what it is, he wasn't rude, but you could tell he was bored and possibly lonely as well. The food was hit or miss, truly. We started with the Crispy Pork Dumplings, which were really good. We also enjoyed the Fried Shrimp Rangoons. They had a nice texture and filling to them. Our entrees weren't as good -- my Poké Bowl was too fishy and needed more sauce/seasoning. My Mom's Mahi Mahi Sandwich was alright -- the fish was good quality but it was overly salty. The kick in the shins was at the end, when we received our bill. This place adds a 20% "service fee" to all orders. This brought our bill from about $65 to nearly $80. So, given the service charge, I don't think we'd come back. But I hope more customers come in, Keith is great socially.
