The spicy chicken sandwich is tasty, but couple of bites had gristle in it, not a big deal. My sandwich was prepared hot and fresh, including cheese, crunchy pickles and a mild spicy sauce. The folks are nice and professional, but some of the other customers is quite interesting.

Great place to grab lunch. The chicken is good and service is good as well. The area is a bit challenging. The restaurant was broken into the day before I visited.

Walked home through TL and stumbled on this gem… got the fried chicken sandwich, spicy. Nancy was cool af, and recommended to try the sandwich as is, without extra sauces. She’s right… it’s simple and delicious: crunchy chicken, dill chip pickle, butter sauce. It’s perfect. I think they took it easy on the spice level cuz I’m a white girl, that’s my one gripe. I always want hotter!! 🤗

My daughter went to this place the other day for lunch. She got a two-piece chicken "combo". It cost over $15. If she wanted a side they were 4 to $5 extra. This place is way overpriced for the product that she got. She would have gotten a better deal at popeyes. At least there you get your chicken an actual combo of freeze potatoes or beans or rice or a salad. And a biscuit and a drink for less than what she paid at this place.

The chicken was thick and flavorful, but unfortunately, it was overly salty, which overshadowed the taste. The mac and cheese had a creamy look but ended up resembling mush, lacking the texture you'd hope for.

Delicious very crispy chicken. I had a spicy chicken sandwich and six chicken wings. Easy selection of sauces. And fruit juice canned drinks that were delicious

Best fried chicken, hands down. I can't lie as a SF native when I first seen the address I was tad bit apprehensive but happy I gave it a try. First and foremost staff was very welcoming and let me take time to review the menu. Establishment was clean, no sticky floors or tables. Now to the good part the food. I had the three piece chicken and when I say each piece was seasoned and fried to perfection. I melted like butter from the initial bite. It has been so hard to find crispy fried chicken that's not dried out, the moisture. Chicken was chefs kiss. The biscuit!!! Warm and soft, I felt like I was in my grandma kitchen. I was beyond satisfied and will be a returning customer.

Ordered 3 piece combo which is 3 pieces of chicken and a biscuit (not much of a combo). Guy asked me what sauce I wanted. I got back to my hotel room with no sauce and no biscuit.

Listen, you either WANT fried chicken, or you NEED fried chicken. If I want fried chicken, I usually talk myself out of it and eat a celery stick as penance. However, if I need fried chicken, like really, really, really need fried chicken, I'm unfortunately within walking distance from this fast food spot. I've been treated nicely here, though the staff is usually in the next room with the fryer in constant action. In a moment of weakness, I ordered the $10.49 4-Piece Chicken Combo which meant I got a biscuit (Photo 6). No, I wasn't having a dinner party. As a dark meat aficionado, I liked that I got three thighs, one drumstick, and an additional stump of sorts. That was nice of them. The chicken was good with a crunchy crust, not overly greasy. Should I have further moments of weakness, I shall return. FOOD - 4 stars...surprisingly satisfying for what looks like a chain AMBIANCE - 2.5 stars...fairly bare bones, expect to take it to go SERVICE - 4 stars...I got a free stump TOTAL - 4 stars...when I NEED fried chicken RELATED - Exploring 6th Street?

Some of the chicken was spoiled and non-eatable . It is likely to cause food poisoning! Please do check your food and avoid getting people sick.

Man what can I say, I was really craving crispy fried chicken and I'm so glad I came across this new joint and not only did it not disappoint but exceeded expectations! My order was made to order, so the chicken tenders came in hot and crispy! Portions were generous so that was really nice. The combo came with a honey biscuit too and after that first bite, you'd wanna finish the entire thing right away. I savored and enjoyed each bite of the chicken and biscuit. I'm so satisfied, and especially the prices are reasonable relative to SF prices, I'm definitely coming back! Will try their royal wings next and sides!

Fried chicken is perfect and amazing. Seasoned well, perfect crunch, hot and juicy. The honey biscuits are also amazing. The only complaint is the sides, Mac n cheese needs seasoning but has GREAT texture and consistency. The coleslaw is a good size but a little on the sweet side, not my favorite but not bad. Service has been great both times, will definitely be going back.

This chicken joint is Amazing! The service was very welcoming and comforting. The ambience was nice although the area may be a bit alarming, it doesn't depreciate the great food there is. I recommend ordering ahead for pick up! Overall I'm thankful for the wonderful experience as I came to visit San Francisco for the first time and this made it memorable for sure. Come check this out if you want some really good fried chicken and potato wedges!

Chicken Skin was seasoned well. I would rate the skin pretty crispy. I wouldn't call it very crispy. The Fried chicken is also reheatable in the fry daddy! The fried chicken is fairly priced. I think its heads and above most fried chicken in San Francisco.

We were craving wings and happened to see this place on our drive home so we stopped in to check it out. The prices were pretty decent, I'd say normal SF pricing for wings so we ordered a 12 piece crispy buffalo wings ($18) , jalapeño poppers, and mashed potatoes. The wings were so good! Made to order so they were piping hot, super crispy, and really big! Nicely sauced as well. Most places these days give you tiny wings but these were so big I was full after eating about 4 of them. The poppers were really good, and tasted homemade. Good amount of cream cheese and also very crispy. Mashed potatoes are like the same you get from most fast food places, not amazing but still pretty good. The service was great, I believe it might have been the owner who helped us out - very friendly and attentive. It's a small place with 3 tables to dine in, I'm guessing most people get it to go but it's worth it to get the wings while they're still hot and crispy. We'll definitely be going back!
