I had such an amazing experience at Chicken Salad Chick today that I felt the need to share it. My…read moredaughter and I stopped in for lunch, and my daughter had previously worked there. The franchise manager immediately recognized her -- not only by face, but by name as well. He asked how she had been doing and was genuinely excited to see her. As a parent, that absolutely blew me away. This is someone who has worked with countless teenagers over the years and has likely experienced plenty of turnover, yet he still remembered my daughter personally. That kind of leadership and genuine care for employees is rare these days. The manager was just as incredible. A while back, my daughter needed to step away from work for personal reasons, and I encouraged her to have that conversation with him herself. One of the values I try to instill in my kids is taking ownership and learning how to communicate directly and responsibly. When she spoke with him, he was kind, welcoming, and willing to truly listen. He made her feel comfortable, reassured her, and simply told her that whenever she was ready to come back, she only needed to let him know. Then today, when we walked in, he greeted her with the same kindness and excitement. He called her by name, asked how she was doing, and even asked if she was ready to come back to work. Moments like this say so much about a company's culture and leadership. Great food is one thing, but great people are what truly make a business stand out. In a world where many workplaces barely know their employees, it speaks volumes when leaders take the time to genuinely know and value their staff -- especially young employees just starting out in the workforce. Thank you for creating an environment that makes people feel seen, remembered, and appreciated. That leaves a lasting impression. Tara J

We opted for a Classic Carol on a croissant, that was a very good chicken salad; and the Cranberry Kelli on their signature wheat bread, that tasted exactly like the classic carol: good, but no tang or visible cranberries, and the barest visual hint of a thinly sliced almond. We both opted for the pasta salad side, which was visually appealing, yet remarkably bland... some dressing here would have helped. Worth the trip, but not as inspired as it might be.

Chili was not something I'd order again. Still a great spot but.......its changed.

I would recommend Fratelli's in Apex if you are looking for Deli Fare.

We paid $17 before even stepping foot on site. Not the restaurants fault but something to note that affected the experience. I ordered the Italian fries, regular fries, and nuclear burger. The Italian fries are delicious! Would 100% go back for those. The regular fries were well done and crispy--very good in my opinion but not always everyone's cup of tea. The nuclear burger was decent--not worth the price in my opinion. While I loved the sriracha ketchup it was smothered in the patty itself was flavorless and left me wanting more. It did take a while to get my food but the staff was super friendly and communicative about the hold up.

There were no other orders working or waiting, the staff was walking into the dining area and socializing. Eventually, someone else ordered and got their food while my food was still sitting there. Finally, somebody called me over and VERY awkwardly passed it over to me, extending the tray, then holding onto it and pulling it back some after I had my hands on it while looking into my eyes with a sad expression on their face. I felt like it was pretty ignorant. Overall, It was really disappointing and a little disturbing. This has been my total go-to spot for years, but I'm not interested in coming back after all of that. The food isn't THAT good, and this just ended a weird and distasteful night out at the Morgan Street Food Hall. Sorry, but No Thanks.

I'm inclined to tell you the place sucks, dirty, crappy food, don't waste your time visiting, to have it all to myself. But that would be rude, and just not my style. Go There Soon!

I arrived a little early to meet a friend from the other side of the triangle and sat at the bar at…read more4:45 on a Saturday. I grabbed a Jalepeño Mango Margarita and read my email. (Great WiFi!) The interior is glass on two sides, so it very bright, and appointed with comfy chairs with waist-high dividers around the bar and small table area. My friend arrived at 5:15 as promised and we were escorted to a table further down the building. The bartender brought my bill to the table later, and I asked if it could be added to the total but he said no. I had read about the pimento cheese wontons, so we decided to try those as a starter. They arrived hot and dressed with a red pepper jelly sauce. (Not too hot, a nice foil to the pimento cheese!) My friend liked them as well. Neither of us are eating large meals these days, so we opted to share an entree. We decided on the NY Strip steak ($38) which comes with smoked potato au gratin and collard greens. We tried to sub the greens for anything else, and the only other option was Brussels sprouts. (Green beans? Broccoli? Asparagus? Anything else? Nope, just stinky stuff.) So, stinky veggies were the only option. (We asked the waiter not to bring them, but they arrived anyway, and we had someone remove them quickly!) The potato's turned out to be more a chunky soup, rather than a casserole, but were tasty. Just difficult to share. (No spoons were offered for the soup!) The steak was phenomenal. Cooked to perfection (rare/medium rare) with a nice finishing sauce, and was just enough. Somehow, that steak, the wonton app ($11) and a regular house marg were billed at $88 after tax, which meant over $100 with tip, but I was enjoying my friend's company too much to dispute the bill. After I left, I did the math and figure they charged extra for something in there. But I was gone and never take the receipt, because most waitstaff do a good job of putting info into the POS system. Maybe I need to reassess my trust of waitstaff data entry. Suffice it to say this will not be a regular spot I go to. Stinky veggies, poor data entry and sides that can't easily be shared made for a sour first impression. The steak was good, but I can't find that extra $30 in anything, unless it was the toxic veggie disposal fee.

The food is inexpensive diner style and comes out quickly, so they must have a good short order cook. We had a twofer from AARP, so it was even cheaper. Nice. I had a couple of hot dogs (the red kind) with onions, chili and slaw that was pretty darn good. The chili and slaw was homemade and tasty. There's lots of sides to choose from and I got the housemade chips which were crisp and not overfried. My dining partner had a typical two egg breakfast with bacon and hash browns. She thought is was just okay especially since the hash browns were kind of mushy, not crispy. We'll come back again, coupon in hand, and give it another try.

We finally checked it out and now it's in the rotation for really good burgers! Idk why I waited so long to get here, by now that I know and I want everyone else to too. There is a parking lot next to the building - they will tow you if you park there and don't go into the restaurant though. So don't wander away. Sometimes they have a greeter, sometimes it's a seat yourself situation. Service is quick, the menu is large without being overwhelming, and the most important part: the food is good. I always get a classic, all the fixings, and fries. I also always bribe my husband to get the onion rings with his food and then we swap a little. The MoJoe sauce that comes with the onion rings is money! Also the onion rings somehow manage to stay together in each bite, which is awesome. I'm a big fan!
