| - Cluck Clucks combines the famous pairing of Chicken and Waffles into a casual premium fast food style restaurant with mediocre results.
I came to Cluck Clucks incredibly eager to try them out, the restaurant looked great and at least from a design perspective was appealing. The variety on the menu was mostly just where on the chicken the meat came from if it had a bone in it. I went with the Holy Cluck combo which was a boneless fried chicken breast with a waffle, fries, and a sauce (I went with chipotle aioli). My eagerness died after my first bite when I realized it was just "fine" with some big problems on the two things they should do best, the chicken and the waffle. The chicken was not particularly crispy or flavourful, and the inside was dry enough that I had to struggle to cut it with the plastic knife they provided. The waffle also had the same problem and although it tasted pretty good, it felt dry or stale, like it wasn't made fresh for my meal. The meal wasn't all bad though, the fries were fried well and tasty and the sauce was surprisingly good, I'm not sure if it's a generic sauce but the chipotle aioli was the best part of the meal and helped cover the dryness of the chicken and waffle.
There seem to be a lot of positive reviews on here so I might give them another shot one day, from my experience I found it to be acceptable, but I definitely left disappointed.
