Wasted potential…read more We moved to the area a few years ago and have given this place multiple tries thinking it will get better. Unfortunately, it's only seemed to get worse. The ambiance is great--probably the best part of the place. The food is consistent; consistently mediocre. I'm not gonna try to judge the quality of the bbq itself because I'm aware there are many different styles of bbq and I'm no expert. That said, everything else seems to be frozen and reheated. The fryer oil definitely needs to be cleaned or replaced. I've saved the worst for last--the service. The individual at the counter has entered our order incorrectly 2/3 times recently and seems to be very easily confused or flustered. I'm not sure we'll give this place another second chance.

Good service, chicken was much better and the onion rings were not as greasy. It was great to see the place revived to the quality that it once had.

My wife and I journeyed to the Pittsburg, Kansas area to judge the chicken war for ourselves…read more Chicken Annie's and Chicken Mary's have been rival fried chicken restaurants there for decades. Our first stop was Chicken Annie's. The next night we went to Chicken Mary's. Both were very good in many ways. Service at both was efficient and friendly, but our server at Mary's was the most exceptional. Both restaurants have an old fashioned family eatery vibe, but Mary's was just a tiny bit nicer. At both restaurants the water had a slightly unusual off-note that was also noticeable in the iced tea. Both restaurants offer white bread from a well-known local Italian bakery. Honestly, it was no more special than any grocery store white bread. At Annie's it was fresher. At Mary's a bit stale. My wife tried the German potato salad at both and proclaimed Annie's far superior. We both had green beans at both restaurants. Both were very good. My wife liked Annie's the best. I preferred Mary's. Strangely, neither restaurant had real butter as an option, only the chemically "whipped spread" so my baked potato was untried. The star of the show is supposed to be the chicken. Portions were generous with both. The breading at Annie's was crustier. The breading at Mary's was flakier and lighter. The chicken at both was moist, but even juicier at Mary's. For this reason my wife and I agreed that Mary's was the winner of our contest. Many people have told us that one or another of these restaurants has "the best fried chicken I've ever had." Honestly, we can't agree. The fried chicken at the grocery store deli near our Roeland Park home is just as good. We have found the Brookeville Hotel in Abeline, Rye on the Plaza in Kansas City, and Stroud's in Overland Park to be infinitely superior to both Annie's and Mary's.

Paired them with fries and their fries were super tight too. I am a pretty good eater and I got 5 wings and fries and that was a good sized meal. I was full but not stuffed. Service was great! Waitress was around checking on us and they had a dual wait staff to make sure we had someone always checking on us. The place is wide open inside and has a sports bar feel on one side and the other side is more dining room feeling. We had TVs to watch all the live games. The FOOD is KING here as those wings are worth showing iiírp.

Had a group of people doing their fantasy draft and seemed like there was plenty of room to do that. Our server Cassandra came over, helped us with all the beers on tap and answered menu questions for us. Decided to order the 5 piece garlic parm and a 5 piece suicide sauce. Note that you cannot order two sauces with the 10 piece, you have to order two 5 piece orders. The prices for a 5 piece seem a bit high at $8.50 though. Wings came out very quick and were cook pretty close to how I like them. The skin wasn't too crispy, was just right. The meat easily came off the bone. I appreciated the amount of actual parm that came on the garlic parm, but I was missing that garlic punch to complement it. If you're looking for heat, maybe ask for an extra side of suicide sauce. I didn't find it to be much hotter than a typical buffalo style sauce. Having said that, the flavor of the sauce was tasty and I would 10/10 recommend for flavor, but lower your heat expectations.
