Here's a polished version you could send as a review or message to the shop:…read more My dad is obsessed with your fish and chips -- tender, crispy, and always freshly made! We've really enjoyed coming in, especially on weekends with the family. The only reason he says he won't come back is because there's no malt vinegar available. He mentioned that most fish and chip shops usually offer it, and for him it's part of the full experience. I even offered to bring our own, but he's still pretty set on it. Just wanted to pass along the suggestion because we genuinely love the food and would love to keep bringing the whole family in. Hopefully malt vinegar is something the shop might consider adding!

The store was pretty busy from morning to noon so we did wait about 10 minutes to get our food. There are lots of options from sweet to savory biscuit sandwiches. I got the beignets and bacon egg and cheese biscuit. The biscuit was very good, not dry at all. I would definitely get this again. The beignets were very much coated. They were crunchy but soft in the middle. It was very sweet.

The space could also use some tidying--there were empty boxes/trash near the bathrooms and behind the tables, plus the dishwasher's door was wide open so that felt a little odd with no privacy for them. As for the food: chicken tenders were a 7/10--very tender but a little too salty for me. The sweet tea balanced it out, and the crispy tater tots and pimento mac & cheese were great. Their biscuits are definitely worth trying--light and fluffy! The beignets are more biscuit-shaped but still delicious. I'd definitely eat here again, but I'd probably do takeout next time due to the wait time to order and limited seating.

Hungry? Craving a chicken sandwich? Drop everything and come here. It's just around the corner and…read moreserves one of the best and most reliable chicken sandwiches you'll ever take a bite of. My go to is the Classic Side Chick with their house spicy aioli on the side. The Hot Chick is VERY spicy. I can handle heat, but having the sauce on the side is much more enjoyable in my opinion. You get to appreciate the crispy chicken, the fresh toppings, and the sandwich as a whole without the spice overpowering everything. If you're looking for a spot that consistently delivers a great chicken sandwich, this place absolutely hits the mark.

The fried chicken was the star of the show. Super crispy and crunchy on the outside while staying juicy and tender inside, with a ton of flavor in the seasoning. You can tell they know exactly what they're doing with fried chicken here. The chicken sandwich was excellent too: massive piece of crispy chicken, pickles, sauce, and a soft toasted bun. Salty, spicy, tangy, rich... everything worked together perfectly. one of the better fried chicken sandwiches I've had. And DO NOT sleep on the fries. Thick-cut, crispy, golden, and perfectly seasoned. Exactly what you want alongside fried chicken and an ice-cold IPA. The Little Italy location itself is awesome. Open-air patio, plenty of sunshine, laid-back San Diego atmosphere, cold beers, and just an all-around great place to hang out with friends or family while absolutely destroying some fried chicken. Great food, great atmosphere, great location. Better ingredients, better chicken, poppa Crack. Easy 4.5 - 5 stars. Take it or leave it MOFOs

I also liked that you order and pay for your food first, then find a seat. As far as the food, it was pretty basic overall. We tried the Philly cheesesteak chicken the flavor was good, but the bread was hard. The chicken tenders were basic, and the biscuits were decent. The Mexican poutine chicken fries were probably one of the better things we tried and were pretty good. Overall, I wouldn't personally choose to come back, but if someone really wanted to go, I'd definitely go with them. The atmosphere was better than the food for me. 6.5/10.

Today though... ugh. I didn't realize dining tonight meant I had eat strategically. 1st- it was hot & humid inside the restaurant; they opened both doors to let the elements in.

The Crack Shack in Pacific Beach is one of my favorite spots when I'm craving a fried chicken…read moresandwich. It's also super close to the beach, which makes it an easy place to stop before or after spending some time by the water. I almost always get the Firebird. The chicken is consistently juicy, crispy, flavorful, and has a really good amount of heat. It's definitely my go-to here. I also love that they have such a big selection of condiments and sauces, so you can try different combinations with your meal. The open patio is another big plus and fits the casual PB vibe really well. The employees have also always been nice and helpful whenever I've visited. The only area I think could use a little improvement is the cocktails. The ones I've tried have been okay, but I'd love a little more flavor and a stronger pour, especially compared to how bold the food is.

Soda was flat. Or bad? The only drink we enjoyed was the lemonade since it was not carbonated. Also, the breading on the whole chicken pieces was quite a bit hard. Service was extremely lacking. We waited 10 minutes at the counter before anyone came over. Whatever, things happen. But the girl taking our order seemed annoyed to be there. It was our first time there, and she seemed irritated answering any of our questions. She also wasn't "friendly" whatsoever. Maybe that's just her personality? Overall wasn't an enjoyable greeting. I will say the girl who actually brought our food to our table was more friendly and helpful. It is nice to be by the beach. It's in a good location. Although their parking lot is a paid lot. We did end up finding free street parking further down. Giving a 4/5 due to service and lack of fresh drinks.

Food: 4/5 We tried the Lemon Pepper Dry, General Birds and Flaming Honey Mustard. I've always been a big Lemon Pepper dry fan, but it doesn't hit the same here (probably my least fav of the 3), because it wasn't as flavorful/tart as ones I've had in the past. General Bird's is their version of General Tsou's Chicken which is savory, but my favorate was the Flaming Honey Mustard. I'm a sucker for honey mustard anyways, and the kick was good. None of the 3 were that spicy. Service: 4/5 They weren't that busy on a Tues evening, and service was relatively prompt. The wings do take about 10-15 minutes, and drinks came quickly, but it did take a few minutes to get our order (probably cuz a sudden influx of people).
