    This is the OKD mania plate for $11.99. You get 5 wings and a big fluffy waffle

    I have been craving Chicken and Waffles for so long now. I was happy to find this place on Yelp for Chicken and Waffle. Y'all this food is so DELICIOUS!!! You will not be disappointed at all. I give this place a well deserve 5 stars because The CHICKEN was seasoned so good, and The waffle was the Best waffle I ever had. After you pour the hot melted butter on the waffle..... The waffle absorbs the butter and syrup...and it oozes back out after every bite. Also, I truly enjoy the hospitality and friendliness from Jamil and E. They were so inviting and funny. It felt like we knew each other.It was definitely top of the line service. The food was cooked in ready within 10 mins as promised. The restaurant was clean, and they offer Kool-aid as a beverage!!! I was excited to see Kool-aid as a beverage decision. LOL! If you love good comfort food, drunk, or crave Chicken and waffles. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this place

    Ita only one place in Memphis that seeves comparable chicken and waffles and it Mrs Pollys. This place is absolutely great. Crispy Chicken, fluffy pancakes. Great food.

    Decent meal of crispy crunchy chicken wings and a waffle that seems like banana is in the waffle mix! It's sorta pricey but we had no complaints so it was ok!

    The wings breading reminded me of catfish. I loved it!

    This area has got to be the Capitol of chicken wings. What are there? 15-20 chicken wing places within a square mile? Not even counting the other various restaurants that also have chicken wings on the menu. I'll bet if you were dropped off anywhere on Winchester between Hickory Hill and Hack's Cross, you could walk like 100 yards and get chicken wings. I like wings, but I'm particular about them because most wings suck. Nothing really stands out between one place and another to lure me in. Except this place. It's chicken and waffles. True, there's a Waffle House about to open, but they don't have wings. Waffle Mania has that something different about it. The business started as a food truck but now is a store. He is a smart guy. He has his image on the walls and even made into the tables. They were putting a cool sign above the door while I was there also. I wish him the best of luck with all the local competition, but I think his edge might be the key to his success. As for the food, it was great. I've had wings till I'm nearly sick of wings and unless they're really good, I'm not impressed. Well it turns out I was really impressed. I've never had them quite this way. They were breaded much like catfish. Cornmeal and seasonings. The flavor even reminded me of catfish. I know that sounds strange, but I liked it. Usually I cover mine with hot sauce, but I liked these just the way they were. Also they were timed just perfectly in the fryer. The cornmeal had that perfect golden brown crunch and the meat was still juicy and tender. They were a bit on the small side, but perhaps they cook better this way. The menu promised me 3 wings but I was served 4 instead. Not sure if that's common practice, but it's what I got. The waffle was pretty dang good too. It had a hint of cinnamon and it worked well with the wings. They gave me a to go syrup, but there was syrup on the tables as well. I felt that the waffle was a bit doughy and could have cooked a bit more for that crunch. I'll add that the brix on the Coke was perfect! That's the term for adjusting the syrup and carbonated water in a fountain machine. Ever notice how McDonald's has the best tasting Coke? That's because most fools don't maintain and adjust their equipment. Most people don't know how to. I do. I have the tools. The Coke at Waffle Mania was that good. Another smart move. As for price, I spent $12 for the Mania Special, drink, and tax. It might have been $2 too much but I felt the quality was worth it. Also, this being fast food, tipping is not necessary, so it cancelled out. I felt like I got what I paid for. It seemed a little odd ordering through a window. I felt like I was buying a bus ticket. I was the first customer at 11 and the whole area around the drink machine was sticky. Other than that the place seemed clean. Service was fast. I didn't even have my drink made and they were handing me my food. If it was pre-made, mine didn't sit more than 2 minutes. It was super hot. I'd just wonder how much they pre cook and how long they keep it. All in all a good lunch. I'll return and try some sandwiches. 9/26/17. I'm going down from 4 stars to three. The chicken philly sandwich was a sad excuse. My friend ordered chicken and waffles. He was nearly done when I got my sandwich. I couldn't even pick it up once without it falling out. Wrong bread. Barely had cheese. Chicken itself was just ok. And why don't they have beef philllys? 8/21/18 I'm going down to two stars. They are playing rap music that has filthy and offensive language in every song. This is not appropriate for a public setting.

    Chicken was so good just too greasy

    We've eaten here once, and they got our orders wrong after it was clear as day. Anyhow. The food was DELICIOUS.. but extremely, EXTREMELY small portions for the prices. Won't be back any time soon. But once again, the food's flavor was fantastic!!

    Kadence mania delicious!! 2 wings and a golden waffle
    Ramona P.

    Superb!! From the reviews, I was expecting great food. I already had it set in my mind that it would be delicious. On Fridays at work, we usually go out for lunch. It was my turn to pick, so I decided to give this place a try..especially since I've been craving waffles for about a week. When we walked in there was along line, but we were to the front in no time. The inside reminds me of a check cashing place...the order/pickup window. The decor seems to be outdated and the tables could use a mean scrubbing. I was here for the food, so I kind of looked passed all of that. I'm really weird when it comes to sitting on seats with any kind of tear marks. We both ordered from the kids menu. I ordered the kadence meal (2 wings and 1 golden waffle). After I received my ticket, we found seats on the side, due to it was getting really busy and people were crowding the front dining area. They call you by your ticket number when your food is ready, which took about ten minutes. You pickup your order in the same place that you make your order...so it was kind of difficult squeezing in to get our orders. The food was hot and fresh!!!! Delicious!!!!!! I would say, next time I will order the chicken tender kids meal..more meat..lol. I will definitely order again!

    I finally got a chance to eat the popular Waffle Mania truck let me start by saying the chicken was seasoned to perfection hot and delicious the Waffle was hot and fresh as well it was an absolute pleasure to eat.

    I have eaten here several times!! Every time just gets better and better. The owner is always there making sure each order that goes out is perfect. The food is the bomb especially the mania burger. The place is very clean . They will forever have a customer

    I had the Regina Mania(3 tenders, 1 waffle) with corn nuggets. Super Awesome sauce. Very Friendly staff. I'm writing the review very satisfied, and Pleasantly Full. Many TVs to keep you occupied with watch the football games. Specially now that inzone dancing is back. OH YEAH! GO RAVENS!

    Chicken tenders dipped in honey gold sauce
    Key L.

    Chicken & Waffles are my favorite combo in the ENTIRE world. I believe them to be an inseparable duo, even better than batman & robin. Before trying this place out, I would order my waffles from ck's or Waffle House and chicken from a lot of different wing places. Although content, I was unable to find a single place that could respect the chicken & waffle duo...until now. I tried the Regina Mania (3 tenders & a waffle) for about $10 (Came with one syrup, butter, & ranch). I had the tenders dipped in honey gold sauce and y'all , I have found heaven on earth. Let me provide a list on how I came to this conclusion. Pros: -The chicken was not frozen. It was hot, freshly prepared, seasoned just enough with a right kick, juicy, and a pretty average size. -The honey gold sauce was so good ( I legit used my finger to scoop up the remainder off the paper separating it from the waffle) bringing the chicken up an extra notch. -The waffle was big and subtly sweet and fluffy. -The employees were very respectful and the place was very clean. Cons: -$10 is a little steep to not come with a drink in my personal opinion. -The waffle was kind of soft and could have been more crunchy. Overall, the meal was delightful, very fulfilling, and I will surely be back!

    3 pc special

    Started from a food truck and now we here. I've always wanted to try this place but would always miss the truck location. I ordered the chicken and waffle. I believe it's called the waffle mania. It comes with 3 pcs of chicken and one waffle. My only compliant here is the chicken the wings were so tiny. The seasoning of the wings was great with a spicy kick and the waffle was pretty tasty as well. The food was hot and fresh with little to no wait time. The fries were a little too seasoned for my taste but still was good( nothing a paper towel can't wipe away). My only suggestion would be larger wings and everything would be perfect. No worries I will have to try this place again.

The crab claws were absolutely fire--perfectly seasoned, buttery, and cooked just right. Every bite was tender and packed with flavor, making them an unforgettable appetizer. The steak flatbread was equally delicious, layered with tender steak, fresh toppings, and perfectly melted cheese. The cocktails were expertly crafted and worth every sip. If you visit during Happy Hour (Monday-Friday, 3-6 p.m.), don't miss the discounted cocktails, featured wines, draft beers, and appetizer selections. It's one of the better happy hour values in the city. Char Restaurant +1 Then came dessert--the legendary Butter Pecan Cake. This dessert had to be created in heaven. Warm, buttery, rich with toasted pecans, and paired with creamy vanilla ice cream, every bite melted in your mouth. It's easily one of the best desserts in Memphis. Even better, this masterpiece is also served at CHAR's sister restaurant, Amerigo. From the exceptional food and handcrafted drinks to the polished service and elegant atmosphere, CHAR delivers a five-star dining experience from beginning to end. Highly recommended. Order the crab claws, enjoy Happy Hour, and whatever you do... don't leave without the Butter Pecan Cake.

The grits were hard, and the crabcake appetizer came out cold--though the sauce on top had great flavor. None of our food was served piping hot, which was disappointing.

The best part of the meal was definitely dessert--the double brownie with pecan ice cream was delicious and saved the experience a bit. On a positive note, the service was good--Liz was great and very attentive--and the atmosphere of the restaurant is really nice. Overall: decent, but not a standout. 7/10

I had a fantastic espresso martini and the best brussel sprouts I've ever tasted! So I was excited to come try something else. On the plus side, the bathroom was so nicely decorated. It was also very clean. I sat at the end of the bar, beside the little section of books. The bartender was nice. I ordered the Ember&Passion cocktail. Although it was pretty good, it was quite mild. Unexpected with the ingredients in it. I was surprised that the level of expected heat was not very detectable. I give it 7/10. When I came here before in the winter, the temperature was perfect and I don't remember being too bothered that they don't have cocktail napkins. But yesterday it was quite warm in the restaurant and not having these napkins wasn't good. Nobody in the restaurant had any type of napkin under any drink! I noticed that just like mine, every glass of water from every patron had a puddle of condensation under the glass. Each time I picked up my glass of water, it would drip onto my food and clothes. My two menus got so wet. I suppose they made this decision to save themselves a lot of money. As for the food: My parmesan truffle fries were excellent!! Hot, crispy on the outside and perfectly cooked in the middle. Best I've had in a long time. The Alabama white sauce on the side was just your typical sauce. It tasted just like every other Alabama white sauce that I've had so was not disappointing. But I actually ended up not using it because it was too thin and it didn't add anything to the fries. The fries were excellent enough on their own. I ordered my burger "pink" but there wasn't any pink to it, but I wasn't that bothered about it. Burger and the toppings were tasty, except for the fried green tomato. Looking closely at the picture, you can see that it was SO SMALL compared to the size of the burger. When a restaurant does that, don't they realize that it makes for a glaring disappointment?! It apparently came from near the end of the tomato, and not the middle. If you are going to offer a fried green tomato on a burger, then I feel as if you should only use the larger slices of the tomato, and save the smaller ends for maybe putting in salads. I've always been obsessed with fried green tomatoes. After having my first two bites of burger and still not reaching the tomato, I took it off to eat by itself. Sadly, it tasted terrible! I was surprised. Obviously, they didn't season the tomato or the batter. (Salt and pepper go a long way.) The burger toppings apparently made the tomato batter not only soggy, but also this strange thick texture. Like mushy and chewy at the same time. 1/10 Worst problem: FLIES!!! So many flies! When I just had my drink but no food yet, I noticed them but was not bombarded by them at that point. It wasn't until my food came. All of a sudden I was literally surrounded by them. They were everywhere! No exaggeration. I actually had to use only one hand to eat and the other hand to constantly move back and forth over my food. I eventually gave up and set the plate of some of my fries about 4 inches in front of my burger in order to hopefully draw the flies to the fries so that I could eat my burger. Unfortunately, after only four bites of my burger, when I set it down to take a drink of water, a fly landed on it within one second. Obviously, that was my last bite, and even when I was moving the plate closer to the end of the counter, two more flies landed on it. The glass of straws was inches from me. That, and the book closest to me seemed to be where they gathered to wait for their opportunity to dive bomb me. So many of them! It turned my stomach when I realized that I had been drinking from a straw with my water and I'm sure there had been flies on it before I got there. Every person that gets a straw in their drink at this restaurant has had a fly sitting on top of it. When the bartender told me about the desserts, it turned my stomach to think of just how many flies were in the kitchen. Had I known the fly situation was that bad when I first got my drink, I would have never stayed there, and I certainly would have never ordered food. I do think it is a real shame because the winter months are a totally different experience in that restaurant. But because of how horrible it was this time, I just can't ever come back.
