I was actually surprised by how empty/unbusy it was. This is one of their smaller locations, but that didn't bother me since I was grabbing my food to go. The tendies had a nice crispy breading and the chicken was juicy. I went with the Hot seasoning level and thought the heat was just right, definitely spicy, but still enjoyable and flavorful. I also got a banana pudding for my daughter since she loves it. Overall, I had a good experience and would definitely consider stopping back in the future.

I was hooked by the name. Quirky. Perfect for me. The decor is very local. It's plain but upper middle class dive feel. The menu was very ambitious, but delivered. Hot-crispy fries and chips seasoned perfectly. Chicken sando on a great focaccia was a banger. Beverage was a Fuzzy baby duck IPA. Quirky and I couldn't pass it up. Highly recommend!!!

I called the owner and he will make it right for my next visit. Those items I will have to review at a later date because everything tasted so sweet from the yam juice. Could not salvage those sides. Now let's talk egg rolls please. Those egg roll are AMAZING. I got a buffalo egg roll, steak and cheese, and hamburger egg roll. Each and every one was FANTASTIC. Get those. The wings were great. The taste was amazing on both flavors . I chose the buffalo and BBQ wet flavor. I really like the fact the wings were not the size of mini turkey wings. Those large wings are usually so meaty you chew for days. Woody Wings are just the right size. The inside of the restaurant is very cute for those that choose to dine in. They have good music as well. Next time you need some wings check out Woody Wings you will not be disappointed. Enjoy!!!

I love peruvian, particularly Saltado but I don't eat beef anymore so I went with the pollo saltado and let me say it was better than 95 percent of saltados I have had including the lomos. I didn't miss the beef! The chicken was juicy and tender the fries were deliciously soaked in the most amazing sauce. It was drinkable that sauce. The creamy green sauce was a great addition to the dish but it was so good on its own. The portion size was enormous! Easily had three meals out of it. My spouse had the pollo chaufa and we both thought it was one of the best chicken fried rice type dishes ever. The fried nuts (seeds?) they provide complimentary were sooo addictive. It was hard not to keep eating them. Finally the service was really excellent. The woman who waited on us could not have been kinder and more friendly. 10/10 all around great food and service.

Not 3 min after I place the order, I have a work call that's an emergency so I call icaru (again, not even 5 minutes later) and the young lady on the phone tells me I HAVE TO PICK UP MY ORDER OR I WILL BE BANNED FROM ORDERING OVER THE PHONE. Apparently they have a 2 strike policy (understandably) but I don't recall a first time happening. The young lady was very quick with it too. Told her I have a work emergency and she said ok, sorry I can't help you and then proceeded to ban me. Didn't even let me talk to a manager or something. I' will bring my roughly $2000 a year to a different Peruvian place. I'm from Arequipa man. Just awful way to talk to customers! Unfortunately the food is great.

I visited Dave's Hot Chicken in Hamden just under a month ago for my first experience with the…read morechain, and based on all the positive reviews and hype I'd seen online, I was genuinely looking forward to trying it. Unfortunately, it ended up being one of the worst restaurant experiences I've had. I ordered a chicken sandwich and an order of loaded fries topped with chicken bites around 5:30 p.m. At the time, there were only two orders ahead of mine, so I expected a fairly quick wait. As the minutes turned into an hour, I started to get concerned. Around 6:30 p.m., I asked about my order and was told they were still working on it. Meanwhile, I watched multiple customers who had ordered after me receive their food and leave. By around 7:15 p.m., the employee who had originally taken my order noticed I was still waiting and asked if I had received my food. When I told her I hadn't, it took another 10 minutes before my order was finally brought out. By then, I was already late for another commitment and had to take most of my meal to go. The long wait might have been forgivable if the food had been worth it, but it wasn't. Everything was cold. The chicken sandwich was not only cold but also undercooked. The loaded fries were disappointing as well--the fries themselves were barely edible, the cheese sauce was cold, and the chicken on top was cold too. After waiting nearly an hour and a half, receiving food in that condition was incredibly frustrating. The following morning, I left a review, and management responded. I appreciated that they acknowledged my feedback, but the response was little more than a brief apology stating they strive for excellence and thanking me for bringing the issue to their attention. Given the severity of the experience an excessive wait, cold food, and undercooked chickenI expected more than a generic two-sentence reply. A refund, an offer to remake the meal, or even a gift card to give the restaurant another chance would have shown they genuinely cared about making things right. I understand that restaurants have bad days. Looking back, I probably should have been more assertive and spoken with a manager before leaving, but I was already late and didn't have the time. My hope is that this was an isolated experience and not representative of every Dave's Hot Chicken location. Unfortunately, based on this visit and the lack of meaningful follow-up, I have no desire to return. When a customer waits nearly 90 minutes and is served cold, undercooked food, the appropriate response is to make it right not simply apologize and move on.

Even though I spent much of my youth growing up in Connecticut, New Haven style pizza was never my…read morefavourite style, so when I was told about Bobbi's on a recent trip back, I knew I had to come and check this place out. I was in New Haven with some friends and came here around 6PM on a Monday. The restaurant itself has a really cool look inside, between the non white walls and the neon signs, it's a great environment to devour some pizza in. It's been a year or so since I've last had Detroit style pizza so I was super stoked to order a vegan cheese and split it with my wife. The pizza came out piping hot and seemed to be made specifically for me. The dough was cooked well but still doughy, the sauce was sweet and tasty, and the daiya cheese it was covered in was great as well. I ended up eating half of the pizza in front of me and it's definitely easily become one of my favoruite pizza spots in the city. Overall, Bobbi's was a fantastic dinner spot and one of my new favourite places in all of Connecticut. The staff here went above and beyond, the place looked great, and the pizza here was absolutely delicious. I will absolutely be coming back here the next time I'm in the nutmeg state.

My kids and I visited for a Yelp event and decided to try a few other menu items. We ordered the cheese pizza, made with red sauce, brick cheese, cheddar, and Pecorino Romano; the Huey, topped with red sauce, Italian sausage, pepperoni, and crispy bacon; Orange Honey Sriracha wings; and Fruity Pebbles Cheesecake, baked in a Detroit-style pan and topped with banana milk frosting and Fruity Pebbles. The cheese pizza was really good, with all the cheeses coming through nicely. It had crispy edges and was enjoyable all around. The Huey was good, too, though the sausage wasn't quite to my taste; it reminded me of imitation sausage. It was very filling, though. The Orange Honey Sriracha wings were good, and the honey flavor came through, although I would have preferred them crispier. The Fruity Pebbles Cheesecake was delicious and tasted just like the cereal. It was creamy without being too sweet, and the banana milk frosting brought it all together, with a flavor reminiscent of a bowl of milk. The restaurant is bright, colorful, and vibrant. The only downside is the price: bringing the whole family can get quite expensive. Still, I would definitely go back.
