“ This is some of the best chicken strips and fries in town. The dipping sauce just sets the difference from others. Easy and quick. ”
“ Always hot and good. We usually do drive thru. ”
“ I haven’t had chicken like that in a long time. Everything was amazing, even the prices. Although there wasn’t much on the menu to choose from I was not disappointed with what I got. Everything was put together nicely & it was a lot of food for me. The food was hot and delicious. When I’m in the mood for chicken, that’s definitely where I’ll be going. ”
“ the best fried chicken in jonesboro. I love this place more than any other- the chicken is magnificent and juicy tender. i wish there were seasoned fries though, and maybe another sauce since i eat their traditional one so much lol ”

“ Taste real good. The sauce is good. Way better than raising cane's sauce. But they both looks the same. ”
“ This place is an overall 5 star. The food is delicious and ALWAYS hot and fresh. Every single employee I have dealt with has been a delight with a smile. This is my go-to place when I come to Jonesboro. Don't let the fact that they only serve one thing turn you away from this place, or you are going to really miss out. I like the fact they only have one thing because then you don't have to wait on people trying to decide what they want. Yes, you may have to wait a couple of minutes in the drive-thru, but it is so worth it to have nice, hot, fresh food. Their toast is perfectly buttered (my husband and I always order extra). Their chicken could probably use a little seasoning, but when you dip it in their signature sauce, you forget all about that. The slaw is sweet, and the fries are the perfect crispness. To me, they have hands down the best sweet tea around. It's sweeter than Sonics but not as sweet as McDonald's. I've only been disappointed here once, and that was because they forgot all about our toast in every single one of our boxes (3) plus the extras but I called up there, and they fixed it for us right away. Oh, also, for the military people, they do military discounts (which is kinda rare for places in Jonesboro). ”
