If you want quick and tasty breaded chicken fingers this is your place. Whenever I'm in this shopping plaza there always seems to be a line for the drive through so I figured this place must be doing something right to have that much business! We decided to eat in for our first visit and entered to smell the appetizing scent of fried chicken. The menu is very basic and consists of primarily individual combo meals or large party packs. While this does cut down on ordering time I would like a more convenient option for a chicken only package that doesn't feed an army since it seems you can only order by the piece if you want just chicken with no drink or sides.
I went with the 6 piece combo. The sides are already determined for you and are Texas toast, coleslaw and fries. It was ready only a few short minutes after we got our drinks and sat down and were piping hot. The chicken was a large portion, tender, juicy, with a crunchy crispy breading. The breading itself was well executed but a bit plain as I needed the special sauce on the chicken finger to add more flavor dimension to my meal. The sauce itself was pretty tangy/vinegary but had a creamy component to it as well. It was alright but after a while it was too one dimensional of a flavor for me.
Unless I missed it on the menu I didn't see any other sauces available other than the ketchup at the counter for the fries. I really would have liked some hot sauce to go with the chicken fingers instead of the creamy vinegar tasting sauce.
The fries were crinkle cut and plentiful. The coleslaw was cool and refreshing but a bit bland tasting to me. The Texas toast had a salty buttery outer layer and was pillowy soft on the inside.
Drinks are self serve and the options are sweet tea, unsweetened tea, and Coke products.
Service was fast and friendly.
For what it is, a fast food chicken finger place, this restaurant delivers just as it advertises. While I do prefer other fried chicken places better, you can't deny the quickness and efficiency of Raising Cane's!
