Just tried this place for dinner. Outstanding food and eating-in experience…read more Their KRISPY KRUNCHY FRIED CHICKEN is FAR better, MUCH more highly superior, to any of the other fried chicken chain outlets we've tried before. Cooked just right. Crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. Excellent, fresh flavor! As it is prepared to order, expect about a 15 minute wait time for the chicken... but WELL worth that wait, as it turned out. Fries and Onion Rings sides were PERFECT, and tastier than most. Interesting, varied menu, too! Very generous portions... and the chicken pieces were real, actual sized pieces of chicken... not like the canary-sized tidbits served up by today's fried chicken chain outlets! Although the seating area was VERY small (store front operation,) the facilities were bright, clean and well maintained. The staff was welcoming, patient and most helpful as we worked our way through their surprisingly large, and varied menu! Reasonably priced, too! Overall... a happy find... and now one of our go-to favorites! Just wish they had a LOT more locations closer (to us!) Surprise/Sun City areas would benefit from having closer access to Outta Bronx sandwich/hot dog/wings/Krispy Krunchy chicken locations! I think it would catch on in no-time... assuming today's quality, and value, remained the same, of course. I'm, generally, hard to please... but Outta Bronx/Krispy Krunchy chicken seems to hit it on all cylinders! VERY pleased. Mark us down as huge fans!

I swear to God, this is such an odd place! The dichotomy between old and young still perplexes me…read more The majority of the clientele is elderly....think 80+. The majority of the employees (the servers, at least) are 25 and under. Plus, this place gives off Greek restaurant vibes, like the kind where you can get a gyro, spaghetti, or chow mein all in the same place: jack of all, master of none. You think it's all going to be tasteless food, but you would be oh so wrong. Mom and dad (80+, but with it) ordered liver and onions, I got an open faced turkey sandwich, and hubs got country fried sirloin. Everyone agreed that their food was delicious. I can't speak to the others, but for me, the turkey was moist, not dry, and the gravy (which they drenched over my turkey without asking, thank you very much) had really good seasoning to it...not overly peppery like at most places. The mashed potatoes were soft, not chunky, my side of corn was very buttery and NOT served in a bowl of corn water, and my cranberries were from a can (THE BEST KIND, and yes I WILL FIGHT YOU on this). We all ordered pie for dessert and I should have went with everyone else and gotten Key Lime, but I chose cherry. It wasn't the greatest of flavor as, even though there were real cherries in it, it was predominantly cherry flavored goo. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised, and I would come here again. But only with my parents, because I think hubs and I were the only people under 60, lol. 10/2026

My wife had a steak and shrimp combo and I had the Key West chicken. Servings were very reasonable for the price and the food was delicious. My wife's steak was cooked to perfection but did taste extremely salty - we did make a comment both to the server and in the on-site review requested by the table side payment app. I would recommend anyone ordering their steaks to be sure to request that they go lighter on the salt. Other than that everything was perfect. My wife had the carrot cake dessert, of which I also had a taste, and we both highly recommend it. Service was also attentive and courteous as was our greeting by the maitre d'. There are so many tempting menu offerings that we will definitely need to be making multiple return visits despite the distance, as we are Northeast Valley residents. I would love to see an additional Cheddars open closer to our home.

It was pretty expensive for what you got, for example, biscuits and gravy were 14.55 and was 2 biscuits gravy and 2 eggs. You can get similar down the road for less than $10. The biscuits were hard and spongy and honestly tasted like they were made from canned biscuits, cooled and then heated up . The pricing is interesting as they added %to menu and you get a discount if not using a card to pay. Overall the food and service was not worth a $30+ breakfast of biscuits and eggs

Feel free to post my full visit from your security footage! My husband, kids, and I stopped in for an early dinner, we had never been but see the reviews online so we wanted to try it out! Getting seated, we didn't want a high top and it was the only thing available. The hostesses couldn't give us an estimate of what the wait time would be for a different table, but I'm realizing after our horrendous experience- they probably weren't trained. We ended up just taking the high top to negate any further confusion with a time estimate. It's crowded inside, and your table is crowded. The energy and atmosphere is tense and overwhelming. It's a sports bar, though- so I feel like that's consistent with any other sports bar you'd pop in to. We decided on the build your own appetizer to start, it came out room temperature. While our server was taking our order for the rest of the food (there was apparently an issue with the table next to ours and their food being taken to the incorrect table, again with poor training) the manager went out to the table next to ours to deliver food and turned to the server at my table, taking my order, and interrupted me to yell at her. He yelled at her about putting the incorrect table on the tickets and the food going to the wrong table, yelled at her the right table numbers( I guess for her to remember next time?), and then stormed off. Leaving our server, to pick up the pieces and apologize for an emotionally triggered man that should have some self control if he's leading a team or part of a company. I was absolutely disgusted with the behavior of the leadership in this establishment and the food was unremarkable. Cold, bland, and stingy is how I would describe the food we were served. There were barely any cheese curds on the Poutine, The Ole Smokey pizza was mediocre and the pasta was bland. I think this restaurant rides the coattails of being on the food network but it does not meet expectations, by far. There is a lack of training all around and that falls on leadership, only. The hostesses couldn't give a wait time, the bartender was over serving customers (I'm reporting that separately to the state), and the servers/runners aren't fully trained for the floor- but instead of teaching, training and finding a resolution- their lead will berate and belittle them to satisfy his ego and ruin your experience. I'm actually grateful the food was as mediocre as it was because I'm happy to never be back.

A Midwestern Classic Done Right at Jimichael's…read more I found Jimichael's while searching for "breaded pork tenderloin sandwich near me," and I couldn't have been happier. The restaurant is celebrating its 30‑year anniversary at this location, and the owner is rumored to be from Chicago, which makes sense--the place feels very much like a classic Midwestern eatery. I went with my wife and a group of friends, one of whom is originally from Detroit and was craving an "Iowa Porker" (a breaded pork tenderloin sandwich). He and I both ordered it, and it was excellent--perfectly breaded and served on a bun with lettuce, onion, tomato, and mayo. Absolutely delicious. The restaurant was clean, the staff was exceptional, and drink refills were constant without ever having to ask. My wife ordered the chef's salad, which was fine but not outstanding. My friend's wife ordered a burger and fries, and that was spot‑on: thick, juicy beef on a deli bun with a full garden of toppings. The fries were crispy, not greasy, and definitely noteworthy. We will absolutely be going back. They also serve walleye for their fish fry, the menu is substantial, and they offer specials for all holidays.

I went to JiMichael's the other day. I was not in the mood to cook. I brought my son and brother in…read morelaw. It was my second time there. The interior is a throwback to grandma's house, cozy yet surprisingly large inside. There are small knickknacks in areas all over, most with sayings on them, and cutesy yard decorations for sale up front. Remember, this is Sun City we are talking about, so we wouldn't expect much else. We were seated immediately. There were several diners in the place yet it still read somewhat empty. The menu is large, with lots of options, all day breakfast as well, and several specials, including fried walleye. That did it for me- I'm from northern Illinois and there are very few places out here serving walleye, my favorite fish besides halibut. My son got the payment and brother in law got the polish kielbasa with the sauerkraut on the side because he doesn't like it and Mike and I would eat it. Service was prompt and very attentive throughout the meal. Dinners come with soup or salad, potatoes or veggies. I chose one of the soups of the day: cabbage tomato. It was pretty tasty. Their cup size is almost a bowl in other restaurants. My son got the split pea and he was happy with his as well. Our entrées arrived. Mike's patty melt was huge. Ron's kielbasa was ok. Not a giant portion of the sausage but he also got mashed potatoes and the sauerkraut came in a salad dish. He loved the sausage. There were four giant sized pieces of fish on my plate, golden brown, and a good-sized portion of French fries. Plus tartar sauce. One bite of the fish and I was instantly transported back to family vacations in northern Wisconsin when I was a kid. The fish was amazing -- moist, flakey, perfectly fried. The coating was not thick- it let the fish shine through. At 72, I don't usually eat much at dinner anymore but I downed every bite of the fish, most of the fries, and a couple of spoonfuls of the sauerkraut. It would be great if they had an all you can eat walleye day there. But I think they would go broke because I would be there each time, lol. The tartar sauce didn't seem homemade - it was a little sweet for my taste but it went well with the fish. I'm a fan of malt vinegar on fish but didn't ask for it. Did I tell you fish was so freaking good? With our bellies quite full, we got desserts to go - my son got carrot cake, I got the chocolate cake, and Ron got cheesecake. I've had their carrot cake before and it's really good. Ron liked the cheesecake. The chocolate cake was just meh. It was dry with an odd aftertaste. Hardly any frosting. I expected better at a place that looked like most things are homemade. I'll definitely go back for the walleye there. They also had catfish on the menu - maybe I'll try that if the walleye is not on next time. With tip, the four of us ate for a little over $88.00. It wasn't cheap but it was not like getting dinner at a Michelin-starred restaurant in the city (even though I'd nominate that chef for the catfish, lol).
