Great clean store, customer service was very friendly and patient going over options. Chicken was cooked and spice level was on point. I also like the longer bread for sandwiches, so it all fits neatly. Price was adequate for portions. Much better than Dave's. Will stop by again.
I genuinely have no words, bangin buns is seriously SO good and you must come try it!! Workers are super friendly and will make sure you feel well served:) Also, beautiful spot! Music playing but not overwhelming, perfect to enjoy your food and the vibesTrust me, this will be your new favorite place!!
We've been drooling over this chicken on Insta, so we drove from Oxnard to try the chicken. It tasted as delicious as it looked! Totally worth the drive. The restaurant is small and really colorful. We love the murals. The employees were nice and our food came out quickly and hot. We will definitely be back
Traveling from San Antonio, I knew I had to try this chicken, I’ve seen it all over social media and I had to try it, the chicken did not disappoint, the fries were nice and crispy and perfectly seasoned, the Mac and cheese was good too but lacked a little flavor, but when you pair it with the chicken and fries it doesn’t matter, the server also gave each person at the table an Oreo donut on the house which was really good as well. great food, great experience, would definitely come back,
This place has one of the best hot chicken sandwiches and fries in the valley in my opinion. Parking lot can be a tight squeeze but usually parking can be found. So I definitely recommend it.
The meal was great. It was made just the way that I ordered it. I definitely recommend trying the food out here. I do reviews all the way around the world and I feel like the service here could’ve been a lot better . The lady taking the orders did not seem like she wanted to work. She did not greet me when I arrived, even though I said hello to her, she still did not say anything. She just looked at me. Everything is digital for taking the orders . It’s a quick easy process to order from the kiosk. I give this place a four star review only because service could have been better
The food was made and delivered super quick. The tenders were nice and crunchy. I got a medium heat, definitely will try the Hot next time. The burger was good, had a very similar In-N-Out taste. The fries were very good. Plus the sauce packets were a great addition.
