    Most Popular Items

    Original Fried Chicken
    "Their original fried boneless chicken is absolutely delicious. Crispy, nutty, and not dry or tough. You can get different sauces on the side or tossed with the chicken."
    Spicy Chicken (Level 1, 2, and 3)
    "The spicy chicken is actually spicy but it's not too much or too little in my opinion. Level 2 crispy or original wings are the best! Level 1 wasn't spicy at all and level 3 was too spicy to enjoy eating."
    Corn Salad
    "I had boneless wings (nuggets) with a level 2 spicy with fries and corn salad...EVERYTHING WAS EVERYTHING!!! The portion size, the flavor...I never knew I liked corn salad until them."
