Very good! I had the catfish basket and my wife had tenders and fries. Food was hot and fresh. Which is ALWAYS a plus! Catfish was good and the fries are always good here. Tenders were mostly breading but large portions. Only real complaint is the entire restaurant smelled of cigarettes smoke. Looks like the outside enclosed area is allows to have smoking and that has seeped in possibly through the roll up garage style doors. ??? All in all a good experience. If I didn't have asthma we could have stayed longer but that cigarette smoke really was messing with my breathing. We'll be back in the spring/early summer when they can open the doors and air this place out a bit.

4.5 The new year is…read moreas good as time as ever to try a new (to you/me) restaurant in an unvisited (by me/you) part of the midstate. Old Hickory Blvd is to the Nashville area as Peachtree is to Atlanta: it's everywhere and nowhere at the same time and no one knows where you are if you say you're on it. Well, needing lunch on a Friday in the new year, I made my way onto Old Hickory to see where it took me. It led me to... Old Hickory and Granddaddy's Original Hot Chicken Shack. It had been on my radar for a while but I never had a reason to me in this part of the county. I decided to make time on this day. Besides the potential gastric distress I find myself avoiding hot chicken because of how colonized and commodified it's become. What was a community staple (and not a 'Nashville' food) has become something that's turned into a chain item, largely without the very people who made it a thing (creators and patrons). Incredibly frustrating. So, when I decide to eat it, I want to make sure I do so responsibly and with consideration. Hence, Granddaddy's. I parked in the ample lot and walked in to find a small dining room that smelled incredible. I was greeted with an authentic smile (you can see it in the eyes and hear it in the voice) and asked (first) how I was doing and (secondly) what I'd like. I answered ('well; thanks for asking' and 'shredded chicken sandwich & fries to go, please.'). In all my professional eating*, I don't think I'd ever had shredded hot chicken. I was going to learn that day. I sat down and watched TV as my food was prepared. After the conclusion on my show, my food was ready. I thanked the folks behind the counter, smiled, waved, and hit the bricks. I noticed that I made a muscle when carrying the bag. This was a good sign. It was also a long drive back to my house. I got home and realized why I had to exert effort to lift my food: it was huge. You definitely get your money's worth. On an over-sized bun, I had an extremely generous amount of shredded hot chicken (medium), cheese, ranch, and pickles. As you might imagine, the flavor combo was A+. What you might not have bet on, though, was the texture win of the sandwich. The soft bun, shredded chicken, creamy ranch, and crunchy pickles added up to a memorable chew with every bite. The fries weren't merely a side. They demanded your attention: a generous portion of seasoned fries that lost neither heat nor snap on the drive from Old Hickory to my home. No matter where you live in the midstate, if you profess to enjoy hot chicken, you owe it to your mouth to make it to Granddaddy's. It was one of the best lunches I'd had in a while. I still think about it. *It's true.

Sadly things have changed here. They cannot consistently do dry rub wings right anymore, which…read morethey offer a few flavors of. Picking up at promised order time and the wings will be naked with the dry rub on bottom of the container. 1 out of 3 orders is actually done correctly. And has been like this a few months now where it is a set pattern now, though they used to get this right. Picking up a mobile order is also nuts with delivery drivers pushing to the counter, in front of people waiting too. Or you seem expected to be in the order line to pick up sometimes with no staff paying attention to people lined up for pickup.

I placed this order via the app. The order was for 15 mild wings and 5 lemon pepper wings. The app…read moregave me an estimated time of 20-30 minutes. When I arrived, there were a lot of people waiting around the cash register. All of them were waiting for a pick up order and most had been waiting for over 30 minutes. One man has been waiting over an hour and kept on waiting for an additional 20 minutes after that. I planned my drive based on the time so that I could just pick up the order and take off. However, I was asked to wait another 20 minutes. Though the wait was excessive, the manager was handling all customers with such grace. He wasn't rude, explained to everyone about the delay, and even when he was cursed off by an impatient customer, he kept his calm. I do hope everyone enjoys their meals, and I hope that the restaurant find a way to place the order faster. 4 stars for handling a difficult situation wonderfully, but minus one star for the long wait. Food tasted great!

This restaurant is clean and the staff were friendly. The food came out Hot and fresh, fairly quickly. They serve Sandwiches, Tenders, Wings, Chicken and Waffles, Wraps, Salads and more. There is plenty of free parking. I usually get the Medium spice level when I get Nash Hot Chicken and that's what I got on my sandwich today. It was good for me-- Not too spicy, but hot enough. I say it will make your forehead sweat just a little :) Nice flavor. I will say that the portions are large. The Mac and Cheese bowl is big and the chicken breast sandwich hangs off of the bun. It's worth checking out and if you want to try their hottest spice level ( Angry Hot ) you have to sign a waiver, so it must be pretty dang hot.

Really good flavor from everything coming together with the cheese and sauce left me satisfied with that comfort food feeling. This is a solid pizza.

Apparently, that wasn't good enough for them, as they made me come in to pick up the food. There was nobody in the drive-drive-through; and yet, they insisted that I come inside to wait on an order that I could've done in the comfort of my car. The IDGAF was on a full court press as they prepped my food. Oh! And the music was so loud, I couldn't hear my own thoughts. The food was almost average, but the service turned me off completely. To be virtually dead and STILL take your precious time preparing an order AND make me come in for the same service I could've received in the drive through? Sorry, no second chance on this one.

About 20 minutes for 2 people. They do have a cool text system so you know how long you've been waiting and where you are in the queue. Appreciated that. It was pretty warm out, and they had the big windows open, but there was no breeze, and we were inside in a corner. Our server came about 10 minutes after we were seated. He was very nice, but never refilled my empty water glass, and my hubby had to ask twice to get a 2nd beer. I ordered chicken tenders with a side of broccoli. I got fries. Fine, the universe wanted me to have more carbs. The food was ok. I think the food is a little more consistent at the Hendersonville location, but its like a cave in there, and I am not a bat. I don't think this is a great place to drive to for lunch. It would be pretty convenient if you're hungry and out on the lake. They have a fairly good sized courtesy dock and the boaters seemed pretty skilled at coming and going.
