This little place is a hidden gem! My wife had gone here with a friend and raved about it, so I…read morewent with her on a weekend and agreed that this place is the bomb. From the outside, the place doesn't look like much, tucked away in a small shopping center. Once inside, there are a plentiful number of tables in the smallish restaurant, which does not feel at all cramped. It is tastefully decorated, and you order at a counter, and they will either call you to get your food or bring it out to you. On the day we were there, the owner was behind the counter and took our order. He asked if we had been there before, and since I had not, he took the time to explain the menu to me. They focus nearly exclusively on chicken tenders, and we opted to share The Three Tenders, which comes with...you guessed it...three chicken tenders (with your choice of heat level), three warmed tortillas, pickles, and alley sauce (the house dipping sauce) on the side. We added sides of French fries and Cole slaw, and the owner gave me a free fountain drink since it was my first time there. So nice! We grabbed a high-top table, and once the food came out, and I bit into the first tender, I knew I was eating the best chicken tenders I have ever eaten. Seriously. These are awesome and at a decent price, too. The tenders are very large and perfectly breaded. The spiciness matches the heat level you choose--not to little and not too much. No mushy tempura batter here either. And the house dipping sauce was perfectly suited to the tenders. The fries and slaw were great, too. If you like chicken tenders, you won't regret trying Hot Chicken Alley!

I had Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken for the first time last year in Austin. When I knew that I…read morewas going to be in Phoenix, I checked to see if there was a Gus's location close to my hotel so I could have Gus's again since we don't have fried chicken like this at home. I found the Camelback location and stopped here for lunch and went with fried green tomatoes (wonderful!) , 2 white meat plate (breast and wing) with fries and okra and it was just as amazing as I remembered it last year. Sweet iced tea refills included. I would have loved to tried their chocolate chess pie but I just couldn't. Service was friendly and fast, the place was quite lively when I came in since a large group seemed to be having lunch as well. A word of warning, portions here are quite generous. If you're feeling you're up for 3 pieces , go for 2 instead.

I was genuinely baffled by how airy and crispy the crust was for a detroit style pizza, the sauce is the perfect flavor and the overall pizza wasn't too salty or anything. The ambiance was nice, very mellow vibes with some good tunes playing, the staff was incredibly sweet and the manager was working front of house and ensuring the place is really clean (something you never see at a restaurant). 5/5 pizza 5/5 service 5/5 vibes will be coming back soon. thank yall! :D

Tried Fly Bye on Camelback and I'll just say it: this was a classic "great deal, a couple tweaks…read moreaway from greatness" situation. I called in my order at 11:20am and got quoted 25-30 minutes for the lunch special. It was ready right around that window, which immediately put me in a good mood because nothing ruins lunch faster than staring at a pickup counter like it owes you money. The guy behind the counter was friendly and even tossed in a sample of 'copy cane' sauce for me to try on my sandwich. I ordered the lunch special (pepperoni pizza slice + Caesar salad, no drink) and added the chicken sandwich with fries. (Fries were only $1 add on!) Starting with the chicken, flavor was solid. Chicken was seasoned and the hoagie was legit. But the lettuce comes ranch-tossed like it's training for a swimming event. It tastes good but if you wait too long to eat it, the bread starts turning into a sponge and the sandwich becomes more "salad in loaf form." The Cane's-clone sauce was 100% needed--once I added it, everything clicked. Now the fries were cooked well done, crispy, and exactly the texture I like. They were just a touch dry, so ketchup wasn't a suggestion--it was a requirement. With ketchup, they're great. The real value winner was the pizza + ceasar. The slice is big and absolutely worth the $10 on size alone. Also: A+ pepperoni choice. They use those small cupping pepperonis (Grimaldi's style) instead of the big greasy ones, and I respect that decision deeply. Only downside: the center was slightly undercooked--that gooey middle happened on a few bites, and I'm not a "wet pizza" person. The salad was fresh and the dressing had great flavor and depth, the croutons felt home made and the whole situation, even portion size, was enjoyable. Would I come back? Yeah. I'd give it another shot because the bones are good and the price is right. Next time I'm ordering the sandwich no tomato and no ranch-tossed lettuce, so I can control the sauce per bite instead of letting it control me. Also worth noting: I signed up for their rewards program and got $10 off, bringing my total to $15--which made this whole lunch feel like a small financial victory with gas at $5 a gallon!

Great food, fast service, and definitely worth the visit. I'll be coming back for more and wish I had tried it sooner!

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.

I smelled the fried chicken from the parking lot and decided to grab some food to try out. I was excited to see chicken and waffles on their menu and knew instantly that's what I would be getting. The waffle was light and fluffy and heart shaped. Their fried tenders are seasoned nicely and, compared to other fast food fried chicken I've had, these were so good I didn't even need any sauce. When you think about other places for fried tenders, I always get their "special" sauce or something like Buffalo. I was bummed I forgot to ask for a sauce, but I didn't even need it. We also got a banana jar dessert, which is banana cream pie in a cute mason jar that I get to take home as a "free" souvenir. The banana dessert was really sweet and a nice blend of each ingredient. The girl helping at the drive thru was really nice and welcoming, and it was a great experience. We will definitely need to stop by again before flying home.
