| - "People Dedicated to Quality". That's what PDQ stands for. And as I was on an empty stomach after making the long road trip into Las Vegas, this is where my lady and I ended up stopping for lunch (on the afternoon of Fri 9/29/17) prior to checking into our hotel room. I know that we don't need yet another fast food chicken place. There's KFC.. There's Popeye's.. There's Chick-fil-A. So how does "PDQ" measure up to the big boys of chicken? Well let's just find out.
Located directly on the corner of W. Sahara Ave. & Richfield Blvd. in the Westside neighborhood of Las Vegas, this located has been serving up their delicious chicken ever since 2015. Since I have never stepped foot into one of their restaurants, I had no idea of taste, quality, and service. Fortunately, the respectable amount of Yelp reviews gave me more than enough reason that this would be a quick and inexpensive place to dine.
The inside of this place is very bright, lively, and cheerful. And the employees were super friendly as they said "Welcome to PDQ!" as soon as my lady and I walked in. What I particularly loved was that it was extremely clean and spacious. There was an abundance of seating throughout. There is no outdoor seating though. But they do have a drive-thru just in case you wish to take your food to-go.
Their menu is rather extensive as they carry chicken & nuggets (all by themselves), salads, sandwiches, bowls, and shakes. And what does make them special is that they offer a total of 8 homemade sauces. Its very similar to Chick-fil-A in that sense but since PDQ has far less locations nationwide, perhaps their food is of better quality. The good news is that they never freeze their chicken while never adding any hormones and steroids.
As I really was curious to how their chicken batter way, I ended up ordering their "Crispy Chicken Sandwich". This was a hand-breaded chicken breast complete with mayonnaise, lettuce, tomato and Grillo's pickles. I also opted for a side of their cool fresh Blueberry Coleslaw. And to drink, I tried one of their freshly squeezed lemonades. Total price for this entire meal, only about $9. My lady ordered the same thing as myself but with French fries as her side.
As far as the time it took for our food to arrive, my lady's meal came out very quickly, within 3 minutes actually. Mine, on the other hand took about 15 minutes. The cashier who rung me up was very apologetic since my meal was taking so long and she gave me a coupon for a FREE sandwich for a future visit. The only problem is that I live nearly 600 miles away from here! So that option would be a little difficult unless I visit Las Vegas in the very near future.
As far as my sandwich, the chicken was flavored and seasoned very well. The only drawback is that it was a bit on the salty side. No big deal because everything else including the toasted bun was delicious. I also liked the blueberry cole slaw as that was delicious and actually a little bit tastier than what you'd find at KFC. Overall, "PDQ" is a fairly decent place that is a good alternative to the more well known fast food places. My review, a solid four-stars.
