"Love the food the recipe has not changed"
"Good food!!"

"Call in your order if your familiar with the menu or know exactly what you want.......they are ALWAYS crowded!!!!"
"Close down 87th Street location and sell the breading in stores. Customer service is very poor. The store is very small. I pray for good food after waiting and waiting. Overall, this place Sucks!"
"And...my wings came with a piece of bread that they put under the fries so it soaked up grease I couldn't eat it. By time I got my food the fries were cold."
"They should know that they would be successful enough to get a bigger place at least so people aren't hanging out the door"
"Be prepared to wait"

Always a Crowd
Ok, I think it is the only one left. My Uncle loves it, yet the place is often so crowded that you cannot even squeeze in! I am not ‘hating’ just debating on whether or not they should expand the operation; more space for seating and standing.
