Even though they forgot my second order of mac and cheese, I got my credit back from Doordash. Other than that, I've tried other Krispy Krunchy Chicken from Wal Mart(Christown) & the one on Camelback. I think this location was the one on Camelback. They are consistent with their fried chicken. I've talked about Bird Talk in Tempe and Jollibee. For a cheap date options, I choose this place hands down! Who doesn't love eating fried chicken with sides inside your car/truck with a drink. This place will not disappoint! You get portions that will make your wallet happy! Don't forget to get your drinks with styrofoam cups just in case!

I also got the new hibiscus strawberry frozen lemonade and it's also my new fav...now, the pineapple-something one last summer is my absolute fav but this one is a really close second. This will be my go to order from now on!

Super nice, helpful, and she kept coming around to refill our drinks without us ever having to ask. The refillable drinks come in a take-home cup too, which is such a great touch. We loved it so much we're already planning to come back at least once more before we leave. Awesome spot, highly recommend!

The environment is relaxing and soothing music is playing throughout. The waiter asked if this was our first time and welcomed us. He provided recommendations and was very helpful. The food was good. The tenders he stated was a spice level 2. The other bone-in chicken was a spice level 6. I ordered the tenders meal. The tenders were plentiful. The baked beans were good along with the fries. You get a souvenir cup when you order a drink. Good place. Would eat here again.

Have been dying to try Monroe's for a long time and finally work sent me on a business trip so I…read morecould eat their chicken sando. I typically ask no comeback sauce because the slaw is wet enough and doesn't get in the way of the Nashville spice flavor. Unfortunately I found the sandwich a bit dry. They use breast which can be on the dry side unless you marinate it for a long time which didn't seem to be the case. The spice levels are also on the milder side. I do think their fries are amazing though. Extremely crispy and well seasoned without overdoing it. I would come back to try the rest of their food and even give the sandwich a second chance.

We stopped by before a Suns game and it worked out well since you are only a 5 minute walk away from the game. I have seen this location before but never actually stopped in to try it out. The menu obviously revolves around chicken and the options are tenders, popcorn, or sandwiches. The tenders come in a basket with fries and pickles (lots of fries!). We didn't get sandwiches but looking around you could see they are massive and likely no fries needed. They had a good range of hot flavors all the way from mild and southern up to "what the cluck" with Carolina reaper peppers. We went with mild (good for the kids and my father) and medium (definitely enough heat for us). The food was really good and the selection of stubborn sodas was a nice surprised to change things up from Coke and Pepsi. Overall, fair prices for downtown and very good flavors with the chicken. I would definitely stop by again before a game!

Wow, Dave's hot chicken... I wanna first say, the response by Brett was a little curious because I…read moredidn't say anything about the flavor being bad, but the quality being subpar for my order. I must have gone on a really off night the first time cause I've tried it again several times since and it hasn't came out like that again! Perhaps they were rushed because I did hear the front counter staff yell to the back kitchen to hurry up. However, it seems they now take time to really bring the beloved Dave's essence I've heard so much about! The temperature of the heat now matches, the bread is not soggy, the mac is not runny, and the staff are super nice. When you go for the first time make sure to tell them for a free soda! You've got to see this place for the art on the walls at least. I even shouted out the artist and they reached back out to me! Very nifty. Best fast-casual chicken in Laveen. Try the big sandwich first! and sliders are excellent bites for the kids. Check it out dudes!

Chicken is awesome. That is where the awesome stops. Went in to order their 2 chicken meal deal…read morewhich was supposed to come with rice, beans, tortillas, and salsa. Order taker argued that they do not have that deal any longer. Told him it is still advertised he said he doesn't care and the manager is not in. Ended up getting two chickens, corn tortillas, and one 4 oz side of beans. They threw in a 2 liter bottle of soda. Went to get the salsa and the guy says one salsa per chicken. The salsa comes in the small one ounce containers. We try to eat at and tell our friends about local establishments, but we don't appreciate getting the old bait and switch. Unfortunately for Mo's we were there for two reasons. One to get our Sunday dinner and the other to possibly add it to our list of restaurants we use regularly for corporate staff lunches. This will not be happening because of the poor customer service and false advertising.

You have to be careful as it can taste as the cook didn't clean the grill in between batches of chicken. I usually go for the golden brown ones. The guy who is usually there is always nice and welcoming. The salsa has always tasted good and they keep it refrigerated. The only thing that keeps me from giving them a 5 star is the rice and beans. I dont care for them at all.

This what we ordered: Brisket Hot links Pork Belly Pork Ribs BBQ Beans Collard Greens BBQ Spaghetti Hot Water Cornbread Cedar Lane Lemonade Everything was flavored nicely. If I had to omit one item from our order it would be the beans. My favorite was the BBQ Spaghetti, collard greens and the Hot water cornbread. I thought the beans would have a bit more flavor, but I've never been a bean kind of gal. You will need to try it for yourself! The Hot water Cornbread was great. The texture was a little gritty, but still yummy. The shape is what caught me by surprise. It was round and flat almost like a pancake. The service was outstanding. Friendly and hardworking. The food came out in good time. There is plenty of seating inside and outside. Has a warm but rustic vibe. I would most definitely revisit this spot whenever in the area.

On the Southside of Phoenix, the main thoroughfare being Broadway, you are in the black side of…read moretown. Like many of our cities, Phoenix legislated racial housing covenants. The whites stayed north because local industry made real estate in the southside less desirable. Slaughterhouses and rendering factories gave south Phoenix a black cowboy population. Sure, there are cowboy groups in California - West Oakland and Compton - but these guys are all LARPing. That is, they're playing the part. Weekend warriors. The afro-vaqueros of Phoenix are dyed in the wool, real deal westerners. So anyway, it's in this milleu you find AT JL BBQ. Alongside said cowpoke, you may, as I did, dine next to a couple 304s. It's an active neighborhood, what can you say? Neither here nor there, but the ephemera that adorns the walls is different than what you might find at a soul food place. It's decidedly more American as such. Speaking of the signage: one of them reminds you that bbq is not fast food and that a patient temperament is of the utmost. Yet, the smoker ain't going. The Cue been cooked. As for the sides, no one does greens and Mac n cheese a la minute. So if everything is prepared, why do I have to wait? I kid. I jest. The girl behind the counter was all by herself. Gave great recommendations. And even gifted me a bottle of water On this visit, brisket was sold out. Late afternoon: makes sense. They had pulled pork. Bites of the smokerd rendered fat therein had the effect of rocket fuel. Pork belly was even porkier than the aforementioned shredded butt. Ribs pretty good too. Mac: ultra cheesy. Pot liquor from the collard greens came in clutch for hydrating the more dry pieces of pork.
