    The BBQ spare rib are delicious. The delivery takes a bit longer than expected, but its worth the wait.

    The BBQ ribs were meaty and well cooked and sauced. The entrees were each good too. We'll be ordering again.

    I recently stopped by Rotisserie in Plainfield, and it did not disappoint…read more Brandon took our order and made the whole experience even better. He knew the menu inside and out, gave great recommendations, and pointed us toward the Pink Beans. Absolutely delicious. Honestly, I could eat those by themselves and be happy. We ordered the 1/2 rack of charred ribs and a Cuban from the Combos menu, with yellow rice and peas, pink beans, and black beans on the side. Every bite was flavorful and satisfying. The ribs were falling off the bone, tender, savory, and seasoned flawlessly. The Cuban was also solid, and the sides pulled everything together perfectly. The food and service were fantastic, and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and portions. Only thing missing? Mac and cheese and cornbread. If they added those, I'd probably be there right now. I'd definitely go back, and I'd absolutely recommend it. If you stop by, ask for Brandon and tell him this review brought you in for lunch. Then let me know what you ordered and what you thought. Enjoy.

The problem is that this place has become so popular that they are overwhelmed at dinner time. You could be waiting up to an hour for your food after ordering, and sometimes they run out of items, like their signature chicken, and the app does not indicate that in real time. So you could order something, but when you arrive to pick it up, they don't have it. If you are willing to deal with that, by all means come here. I've liked everything I've tried so far--the rotisserie chicken, roasted pork, red beans, black beans, street corn salad, gandule rice, cole slaw, and the sauces, nearly all of which are pretty spicy. I will return, but now only during off-peak meal times.

We were…read moredying to try the new spicy chicken sandwich and I'm glad I made the trek since there are no KFC's close to me anymore. Drive up to the drive through and was greeted pleasantly and my order was ready promptly. The lady at the window was incredibly nice and if she's not the manager she should be. We ordered 2 spicy chicken sandwiches. One with bacon and one without and 2 large fries . Got home they were still hot. First the sandwich which I think is the best fast food chicken sandwich. Not greasy, ample portions, and very tasty. The bacon just up's the sandwich. The fries were really good and not mushy. Love this KFC and I'm looking forward to going back for more of the Colonel's chicken.

Those that know me are tired of my constant tirades against the "KFC Experience" - a torture chamber of incompetence that generally leaves me exhausted trying to communicate with the brainless miscreants and mimes behind the counter who make North Korean productivity and order fulfillment scores look world class. Absolutely no miscount on the chicken and stop the presses, the sides appear to have been prepared within the last 72 hours. Did I mention that biting down on the biscuit didn't require 12 hours of emergency dental work. I appears that The Colonel may actually still haunt the premises in North Plainfield. I have no idea why but I'll take it. Five intergalactic stars.

I love spicy food, and I really like that you can choose your spice level here, ranging from naked to hot. I went with the hot for the chicken & waffles and medium for the wings, and I'm so glad I did. If you're a spicy lover like me, hot is not something you'd want every time. It's enjoyable, but there's definitely a kick that'll have you dusting off your mouth. The medium, on the other hand, is the perfect balance. The chicken was good, but the clear winner for me is the spicy smash burger. That burger was good, and I'll be coming back for it again and again. I also ordered the oreo shake, and it was definitely worth the purchase. And, for a franchise, I was really impressed with the service: friendly, attentive and responsive.

When the map showed that the dasher picked up my order, (dasher even sent a picture), the next update was that there was a problem with the order and it was being recreated, the next update after that was that the order was cancelled because the dasher had a problem with his car. this is the SECOND TIME, that this has happened to me at this particular location. When I called the location I asked to speak with the manager, the person said, the manager is not here they will be there tomorrow. (this is the same exact thing they told me the last time). they told me I had to contact DoorDash, and they were very nonchalant about it but MORE THAN WILLING to give me the phone number to DoorDash, but something didn't seem right when I got off the phone with them and thought about their reaction, so I researched the phone number that they gave me and saw that the number was fake DoorDash number they had given me. So I decided to get in my car and drive to the location and order from the counter, I made sure they were almost done with my order and had everything at the counter before I asked one of the young ladies in the back if she was the maanger, she said no and pointed to the lady who was. Mind you...I told you they told me over the phone that the manager was not there. It turns out, that the lady I spoke to over the phone WAS THE MANAGER!!!. I had to call the real DoorDash phone number to report the dasher and the merchant. I spoke to the "Manager" aobu tit in a very tactful way in a store full of customers. I will also be contacting corporate tomorrow as well as the Division of Consumer Affairs. You don't play with consumers.

    An excellent way to ring in my Womb Exit Anniversary. My top-tier chum who literally went to the…read moreschool of hospitality brought me here last Sunday for a birthday dinner. I picked it knowing the solid rep of Jessica's Cafe in Plainfield, so I can't say I was stunned to find out this was awesome - but given the expectations coming in, this probably even slightly exceeded them. Pretty cool. This was literally my first time in Fanwood, unless you count taking the Raritan Valley Line through here to Hunterdon County back in the day (I don't think it counts). The weather was a little iffy throughout the day, which I'm assuming played a factor in the town feeling a little desolate when we showed up. It reminds me a lot of the Newport neighborhood in JC - super, super gentrified. Maybe it's just the section where Jessica's is though, right across the street from the train station. We parked over there, not entirely sure if that was naughty or not, but given our outdoor seating, we easily could have peeped a cop or tow truck driver before anything terrible happened (I think it was fine, given it was a Sunday night). All that to say though, I'm not entirely sure where the ideal parking is if it's not at the train station. We were only in the restaurant for a minute (enough time to ogle a fridge or freezer of tasty looking meat to the right of the entrance), so I can't speak to the spiffiness of the interior. Even though rain was a possibility, it seemed worth the risk to stay outside due to the temps and large umbrellas. No regrets in that regard. We were seated promptly and ordered shortly thereafter, while also receiving some decent bread and butter with a bit of olive oil drizzle. Quite tasty. Somehow it's become an informal tradition, but if it's on the menu we usually get the Grilled Octopus. One of the better ones we've had. Nice and crispy (texture to me is the key to this one) and seasoned well. The accompanying potatoes were a nice touch to the proceedings - would totally get this again. A lot of the other apps looked good too, but someone accidentally made me birthday weenies on the grill earlier, so I couldn't get QUITE as frisky as I normally would. Both of us gave the lamb a long, hard look (and my chum wondered aloud about the ribeye special for the rest of the evening - possibly the one that got away) but I ultimately went with my classic Short Ribs entree. Delicious. Tender, flavorful and the perfect serving size. I was a little nervous that a puree versus mashed would mean the potatoes were too wet or liquidy, but not the case at all - they maintained their relatively solid integrity as far as I was concerned. I forgot to take a picture of dessert, but I got the Creme Brule. Also excellent, and at the perfect temp. I think there may have been a birthday musical accompaniment with that, but it's all a blur. Arguably just as good if not better was the service. Our waiter was super personable and professional, stopping by regularly and just added a hospitable touch to the meal that brought this to the upper echelon for me. Service is king, and it matters - you can't take for granted the ability of your server to essentially riff for two minutes on their menu knowledge, as well as just good-natured banter. Had that in spades. Coming back for sure - Womb Exit Anniversary or not.
