    Some of the smallest tenders in history.
    Daniel M.

    When you go to tenders and your tenders are smaller than your fries. Lol Come on now, we can do better than this. The taste was great, nice and crispy. Why did I just pay $11.49 for these mini pieces of chicken with fries, a burnt piece of BBQ bread and not even get a drink? Attention to detail is obviously not a strong suit here. I recommend going somewhere else if you're wanting some decent tenders. One positive is that the server was very polite, Tenders doesn't deserve her.

    Wings from Tenders!!!! 10 Piece Wing!!!

    Was really craving some wings, but it is Ridiculous $14 for these tiny wings, and on top of it all they are hard as a rock. I wont be back.

    I stopped by for a quick lunch on the way to the airport on 3/27. I ordered the chicken tender lunch with 4 chicken strips fries and Texas toast. The chicken strips were rubbery and fries tasted like frozen fries. The best part of the meal was the Texas toast. Texas Toast - 5 stars Fries - 2 stars Chicken Tenders - 1 star So my composite score is 3 stars.

    The wings were cold and of horrible quality. I bit into one and was immediately nauseous. There was also a hair that resembled a dog hair on my chicken finger. For $11 I expect better...

    Horrible small tenders

    The food was fantastic but be prepared for the seating situation, we weren't…read more First off, this is a very popular local place and it will likely be packed. There isn't a hostess so it's a "wait till a table opens and go sit at it even if it hasn't been bussed" type of place. Once you sit they'll bus the table though so don't worry, you don't have to eat the leftovers. The wings are phenomenal. Hands down the best I've ever had. The mild wasn't too spicy and had a great flavor and the Gold were super sweet and smoky with a little tang. The fries aren't anything to write home about as a side, but the teaser appetizer that has the cheese and bacon fries definitely was. The bacon is fresh and crispy and the fried apps on it are really crunchy and the oil tastes very clean and not reused a lot. The place was a -little- dirty in certain areas like the back wall where we sat and the bathroom, but it wasn't overall disgusting or a health violation, just could've used a little tlc. Overall, will definitely be back. Get the wings. They truly are the best.

    I saw Cricket's featured in a food magazine, so I asked my friend who lives in that area and he…read moresaid he hasn't been there in years, so I made it a point to go when I visited him. Cricket's is a Madison staple and walking in, they have history all along their walls. I had to order the Honey Gold sauce, which was basically a cross between honey mustard and Carolina Gold barbecue sauce. I quite liked the sauce, but after a while the tanginess kind of sits in your throat. The wings and fries came out piping hot right out of the frier so that was great. The wings were a bit on the small side and the fries were pretty plain, but the wings had a nice crunch and the fresh-from-the-frier heat helped. The single piece of celery was tacky but the bleu cheese sauce was nice and thick. Overall I can see why Cricket's is a hometown favorite, though I've had better wings and fries.

Natasha, who is more than happy to greet you at the front counter, provides top notch, extraordinary customer service.

Wings to Go has more than resilience, they have a diverse menu and although I haven't tried everything, I have enjoyed what I eat regularly or what I've tried in the past. My Wife has her favorites also, she'll get a salted Carmel brownie which they always ask "would you like this warmed up?" but she doesn't, I would if it was up to me. They are in a great location and there's always plenty of parking. Get a combo I've always enjoy the fry's along with the wings & drink. I mix my own Arnold Palmer . Try it out, tell me what flavor you got? I have my favorites and sometimes try something different. Hope you enjoy it and their kindness as much as I do. There's 3 different seating areas one is quiet away from TV's and one is usually sports and sports banners on the wall, and the other is a mix of current news.

    Headed over to Madison and decided to give this location a try…read more Clean with a funky vibe. You go up to the bar and order then grab a seat. I ordered the thin crust "Beekeeper" and my wife built her own. We also tried the cheese sticks. Got our drinks and grabbed a seat. Plenty of TVs and nice music, sort of a sports bar type feel. Cheese sticks came out first. Thicker crust. Lots of melted cheese and garlic. Served with a warm marinara. These were excellent. Had the marinara been dappled on top I would have called this a great "grandma" pie! Pizza came out fairly quickly. Not super thin, but a light cracker type crust. Cupping pepperoni was crisp and flavorful. Cheese was smooth and rich. Honey drizzle gave a hint of sweet. Basil should have been placed after the cook but was still good. Undercarriage was a little light but still crisp. My wife got the Alfredo base with pepperoni and pineapple. Her words "I have found my new favorite pizza place!" Pizza felt like a Bar style. Both pizzas were great, this time we made sure to get a medium. Overall excellent meal! Will be back!

    I visited here last Tuesday with my mom. This is a relatively new pizza restaurant that opened…read moremaybe around a year ago in a medium-sized shopping center. I went to undergrad at Mississippi State University in Starkville and there was a Lost Pizza there; I think this is a small chain that got its start in Mississippi, actually. It certainly shows in the fun, bluesy, Delta-influenced decor. The vibes are great! I was a little surprised, though not displeased, to find that this is an order at the counter joint. The cashiers were bubbly and nice. Our order took a short time to come out but nothing crazy. Drinks are self-service and the drink cups are cute. There's plenty of room to find a more private place to sit. We split the spinach and artichoke dip appetizer and a small Beekeeper pizza, which I get the impression is limited-time. It comes with pepperoni, basil, and a drizzle of honey. You can choose between thin or thick crust, which is nice; we went for thin. The spinach and artichoke dip came out first. It was a pretty bougie take on the appetizer, with a thick layer of melted mozzarella on top and a couple of red pepper flakes throughout that made it punchy. It was crazy hot temperature-wise too. The chips were very thin and had some trouble breaking through the mozz on top and frequently broke when trying to dip. We wound up using a fork to break up the cheese and then scoop dip onto our chips. That helped a lot. Our pizza came out shortly afterwards. We ordered a small. I will agree with other reviewers who said the small is *quite* small. If you came with an appetite, it'd be on the small side for a meal. That said, for our purposes, it was a great size to split with the dip for a more reasonably sized lunch portion. The pizza was quite good. Not overly saucy, with crispy crust and gooey cheese. The pepperoni cups were crispy and delightfully greasy, and the honey on top was a great addition that complemented the flavors well. I'd happily reorder this pizza. Overall, definitely a chill place to grab a pie and hang out! Would be happy to try some tamales some time too. Made me nostalgic for MSU even though I never made it to the Lost Pizza there; job well done of recreating the "feel" of the state. A nice visit for sure!
