I have heard of Chick-fil-A and its cult following, but I cannot count myself as a cult member having eaten here. While the food is cheap, the quality and flavors were just lacking. It makes sense that you get what you pay for, but I would pay a little more for a better dining experience. Having dined here, I have to say that I have no inclination to return.
MY ORDER
X1 Spicy Chicken Sandwich Combo with Lemonade and Granola Parfait
x1 Cobb Salad with Avocado Ranch Sauce
SPICY CHICKEN SANDWHICH: ($9.89) including medium lemonade and parfait) The spicy chicken sandwich did not meet my expectations given all the hype surrounding it. Expect a nicely sized spicy fried chicken patty, a couple threads of lettuce and thinly sliced pickles layered between fluffy bread buns. The chicken was not particularly crispy nor did the various sandwich elements help balance each other out or add to the flavor profile of the sandwich overall.
LMEONADE: A medium lemonade is served in a pretty large cup that you could easily share. Other than that, it is a typical fountain drink lemonade.
GRANOLA PARFAIT: You get a tiny handful of berries (blackberry, raspberry and strawberry) and the yogurt is smooth and creamy. This was a tasty and healthier alternative to berries and cream.
COBB SALAD WITH AVOCADO DRESSING: ($9.89) This was a strangely filling salad comparable to a grocery store pre-made cobb salad. While you only get the not-very-nutritious iceberg lettuce (which is not the freshest or most crisp either), it's pretty large and all the fixings (bacon bits, fried chicken nuggets and fried chicken batter croutons) will fill you right up. In terms of taste, it was not bad. But funnily enough, I didn't feel very healthy despite having ordered the heathier option on the menu!
ENVIRONMENT: The interior is typical of an old styled fast food chain, but not very clean. I tried to make sure I didn't touch anything I didn't have to while I dined in.
CONS:
- not very clean with food scraps on tables and on the floor. Understandably, they were very busy that night because of a nearby event at the CAAN
