The first time I had ever been to a Popeye's was in Dallas Fort Worth airport a few years ago!!! I had an 8 hour layover on my flight to Paris. I knew I had to try some southern comfort food and yes, it sure it the spot, I loved my lunch that day. I still remember it cause I pigged out on fried chicken, mashed potatoes, biscuit, gravy, corn, and who knows what else lol ... so, when I saw this Popeye's located at McCarran, I wanted to get something to eat for good ol' times sake ;)
I had just bought my sandwich at Jersey Mike's and definitely knew I wanted to sit down in this area to eat, so I planned on getting Cajun fries as a side! but then I couldn't make up my mind, so I got both small french fries and a small mashed potatoes gravy :) Well, what can I say, I love comfort foods and mashed potatoes are my #1 yummy in my tummy! There is just something calming about creamy delicious mashed potatoes and for a fast food place, I would say in my opinion, Popeye's has one of the best you can get!!! I love the flavor of the gravy too. Plus they have good Louisiana hot sauce packets, I love spicy anytime!
The Cajun fries were great, went well with my Chipotle Steak sandwich. The mashed potatoes hit the spot as usual, they were soooo yummy! I believe I spent $3 or less on these two items and it was totally worth it, super cheap and tasty! The staff working was friendly, my order came out less than a minute, right when I paid I got it! I liked the area I was sitting in, so it was good to enjoy eating around 9am, and the tables around me where almost full. I am glad I walked around the terminal first before I made my decisions on what to eat/drink, made a huge difference because I was more comfortable and could take my time!
