    Not bad for a fast food chicken restaurant. I had really low expectations but I was pleasantly surprised. The chicken was very moist and the seasoning was good. Portion was also good enough to share. So if you are in the mood for some casual chicken and want to give Bojangles a break then try it out ...

    This was the Dave's #1 2 Tenders w/ Fries (not a fan of the bread)

    Parking 5 Clean 5 Service friendly people The ambiance was vibrant and the spicy chicken they serve. This location firming the holidays they give tickets for you to with extras (we didn't but you could) It is easy to get to and the wait was about 15 minutes start to finish. The loaded fries gives you the option to really taste everything they offer in one dish. You get the fries with cheese sauce and slaw the chicken has a sweet sauce (maybe honey) with the Dave sauce! I liked it but wish my fries were cooked longer so they had more crunch. The chicken tenders are very large I was shocked! I got the no spice but that is because my body is not made for it but my Son said he will try mild next time. The reviews had us aire on the side of caution lol but we had an amazing experience! The food did not take as long as

    My daughter and I decided to try Dave's when we were heading to pick up Cava in the next parking lot. There was a long line (only one register open) but it moved quickly. It's a really nice setup with plenty of seating. It did take some time to get our order, but it was worth it as I believe everything is made to order (not 100% sure). We ordered the Dave's bites (mild) with fries. They were definitely worth the wait, so yummy. The chicken bites were perfectly seasoned, so were the fries. I loved the Dave's sauce. The meal comes with bread and pickles to balance it all out, perfect ! I'm looking forward to going back soon.

    This was some of the best fried chicken tenders/bites I've ever had! Far better than Raising Cane's! The restaurant was decorated really cool and modern! Great atmosphere! While the prices were a little high for just chicken and fries, I'll definitely be back!

    First of all, the customer service is wonderful. The speediness of getting my order. It's supposed to be exactly as it is because you have to wait. So they can make it just right. There's something about the chicken that so amazingly delicious. Don't skimp out on their delicious milkshakes and frosty beverages with flavor. Whether you get the sliders, or you get the chicken tenders, you're going to want more and more every time you come here, you're going to crave it. You're going to savor it, and you're going to come back for it more and more.

    Sliders and fries.

    Y'all, my daughter and I have been looking at this place for a while and finally got there today…read more Oh, why oh, why did it take us so long? Obviously, this is our first time, but what we got was amazing. We each got one of the lunch specials. She got boneless wings with the seasoned fries, and I got the wings with the radish. I got the sauce that starts with a "y", and she got half Korean BBQ and half the "Y" sauce. She enjoyed both of the sauces, but liked the BBQ one best. She also ordered one of those Korean "corn dogs" with cinnamon sugar on it, and the Kewpie mayo. I wouldn't get the pickled radish again, it's not what I've eaten elsewhere, but who cares when the wings were so awesome.........amazing........I think young people say they are fire......and they were. The fries were crispy, the wings crispy and well-sauced.......................and I cannot wait to go again. To top it off, our server, Madden, was wonderful. Not named after those guys from the band, Good Charlotte, but after John Madden! Since I know it can be good, let it be known while there if it's not.......because I'm pretty sure they'll make it right.

    This is my go-to spot when searching for some good, quick, Korean fried chicken but I didn't…read morerealize they had a bar until recently. So I dropped in for a lunch visit and wasn't disappointed AGAIN. I had the lunch special for two. It includes 1 Appetizer, 2 entrees and a dessert for $39.99. We selected the pork potstickers, beef bulgolgi and Korean Bbq Fried Chicken (6 wings /3 legs) and. Korean donut. I washed it down with the Soju Mule. Everything was delicious per usual. Our waitress was super nice and gave us great recommendations as well which is always welcomed. I just really think it's pretty cool that they have a bar.

    Whole Truth Lunchroom has a great mission, and the food definitely lived up to the experience…read more Everything tasted fresh and well-prepared. The fried chicken was crispy and fried hard just the way I like it, with plenty of flavor in every bite. The greens were seasoned perfectly, and the yams were sweet with a great texture--not too hard and not too soft. I visited on a hot summer day, and the restaurant can get pretty loud and a little stuffy when it's busy. Thankfully, they had fans placed throughout the space, which made it much more comfortable. Overall, I enjoyed both the food and the atmosphere. If you're looking for good soul food and want to support a place with a meaningful mission, Whole Truth Lunchroom is worth a visit. I'd definitely go back.

    A ministry of the church next door, Wilson's Whole Truth Lunchroom is a hidden gem. Located a few…read moreblocks from downtown and run by dedicated volunteers, this is an old school cafeteria with the type of food you'd expect from Southern church ladies. Dishes vary from day to day but the fried chicken, baked chicken, and fried pork chops are staples. Plates come with two sides and you can see from the photo why the blackeyed peas are so good (spoiler alert - it's bacon, lots of bacon). Collards are also delicious and the yams are mildly sweet without being cloying. The banana pudding is gloriously warm and the meringue is fluffy. The pudding is a touch too sweet and I could have done with more bananas but it was large enough to share. The staff is genuinely happy to see you and are happy to talk about their work, if you like. The room is a bit bare bones and the bathrooms are rudimentary and cramped but everything works. There is parking directly in front of the restaurant. Thanksgiving take-out is available for pre-order (see photo). I have a strong feeling you won't go wrong with any of the choices.

When we lived in Virginia SCNB was a definite stop while traveling in North Carolina. For many years we only ordered the bbq, until one year, my wife tried the fried chicken. OMG. They do chicken right. It reminds me of fried chicken when growing up. The seasoning is the best. Not hot and spicy but just gooood. Publix fried chicken comes close but SCNB always comes out on top. Next come the sides. The Brunswick stew tastes like the recipe is generations in the making. It is thick, meaty, and loaded with vegetables. If you're looking for pulled pork and excellent fried chicken, then SCNB is a fantastic choice.

We made 2 trips during the week we were here. The first time I got the chicken and bbq plate, also came with fries and hush puppies and also Cole slaw. As a Florida native. My idea of bbq is different. I'm used to sweet and tangy sauce or a golden mustard sauce. Their sauces are vinegar based with a bit of tomato paste for color and red pepper flakes. I will say it's an acquired taste. It wasn't bad. Their fried chicken was really crispy and it was really juicy, hot and fresh. I also tried their banana pudding which was pretty good. Could have more cookies and add whipped cream, but that's my personal taste. My second trip on the advice of my boyfriend I got the bbq sandwich which you can get with Cole slaw on and then add their vinegar bbq sauce and that was WAY better!! The tangy and creamy together was great. I also go their 3 piece tender snack pack. Wow these tenders were enormous! I had to take them home. One was as big as my hand! Also shared a hotdog with slaw on it and that was meh. I wouldn't get that again didn't care for the hotdog wasn't big enough or juicy enough.

    Chicken Bee is incredible Korean fried chicken, and it has never let me down…read more The chicken is always fried fresh, which means it comes out piping hot, insanely juicy, and perfectly crispy every single time. You can genuinely taste the difference when something is made to order like this. Whether you eat it right there in the H Mart food court or take it to go, the quality holds up. My go-to is the Spicy Garlic, which has fantastic flavor, bold, savory, and just the right level of heat without overpowering the chicken itself. The sauce clings perfectly to the crispy exterior while the inside stays tender and juicy. It's the kind of place you go back to again and again because it's reliable. No surprises, no drop-off in quality, just consistently great fried chicken done right. If you're a fan of Korean fried chicken or just great fried chicken in general, Chicken Bee is an absolute must.

The Supreme Sauced Half Chicken is tossed in a special gochujang sauce (advertised as medium spicy). The sauce was sweet, savory, delicious, and perfectly spicy. It truly had the right amount of spice for me! It made my nose run a little bit (in a good way) but didn't blow my socks off. I was able to enjoy the flavors but had a good burn on the tongue. I got rice as my side. It was overcooked and boring, but the chicken was so good I honestly didn't care. I got rice just in case the sauce was too spicy for me and I needed something to soothe my tongue. When I eat here again, I'll get pickled radish as the side!
