I tried the hush puppies and the fish + chips. Both were really, really good!!! I grew up in the south and was excited to try this place out. His breading on the fish was unique, and made the meal much lighter than the traditional fry. The seasoning creeps in later. It's not the traditional fish fry, and I really enjoyed it!Can't wait to try to chicken biscuit next time!

We’ve been here a few times, and the first time was the best time! the fish & chips, fried chicken & fries were ON POINT. the second time was decent, not as good as our first experience, but still decent. The third time, however, was a disappointment. everything was crunchy, hard and dry. We plan on giving it another try in the future though because we want to support a Black-owned business! ☮️❤️

I did not like nor enjoy any of the food I got here. I was hesitant to give a review as I really don't like to give bad reviews. Not sure if I went on a bad day or what. But I ordered the fried chicken dinner. Chicken was very salty, Mac n cheese was ok, greens were salty but probably the best part of the meal. I didn't receive the cornbread. And the sweet potato pie was awful! Tasted like there was way too much all spice. I actually threw my dinner away. I most of the greens, half the Mac a chicken leg and the garbage got the rest. I really hope I just went on an off day as I've heard nothing but good things about this place.

The biscuit chicken sandwich with honey butter and cheddar is really good! The Nashville one too. And the bucket is a great deal!

I saw this place on The phantom gourmet and honestly I had given up on eating chicken out because it all taste like rubber or cloned chicken and is full of breading and bones. Until I took a well worth ride to Providence a friendly neighborhood that houses a small take out restaurant and if you drive to fast you might miss it especially in the summer because the tree covers the coke sign. Hard to find parking but trust me go around the block and find a spot it will be worth it once you taste this chicken. I ordered a bucket of chicken and some Hush puppies (cornmeal with clams) The hush puppies were good but the chicken on the other hand , now that was truly amazing such big piece of chicken filled with Juicy white/ dark meat with each bite better than the last. They have dipping sauces too But you don’t need them you will want to enjoy the flavor of this mouth watering chicken. When I eat out, I will be getting my chicken from here as long as they are around. This place is amazing a hidden gem and the ladies who run/work here are truly friendly, and amazing just like their restaurant.

Tried for the first time today and ordered the Tenders and Waffle fries because I wanted some chicken. It smelled amazing when I got it, nice and hot...but there's no flavor. It has seasoning but lacks salt. Was very disappointed ☹️ Fries were alright but again where's the salt???

Burger and Chicken were awesome! Ordered ahead of time and it was ready when I arrived.

I was ready to try this 4 star eatery. Well to my disappointment the food was disgusting. The chicken was so salty I couldn't even eat it. The collard greens were crunchy , I understand that they can have a bite but dam these were extra crunchy. The Mac and cheese was pure mush and tasteless the noodles were so over cooked it wasn't even funny. The corn bread was dry. My tea taste like it came from a ready mix can. I know you would think something was at least decent! NOPE. I hate to say but I will not recommend this place nor I will not return. This is my own personal opinion.

We had read the reviews about the fried chicken at this place, and they did not disappoint. The Fried Chicken dinner went beyond all expectations as it had great flavor and cooked perfectly. The sides were just as good. I also had the shrimp po-boy and that was equally delicious. I just hope that they open up the restaurant interior soon. Bravo on the food!!

Stopped here for lunch after visiting the Roger Williams Zoo. It was about 10-15 minutes away which was convenient. The food was amazing! We ordered the double burger, spicy chicken sandwich, and chicken tenders and waffle fries. My favorite was the spicy chicken sandwich hands down! The sweet tea they serve here is very refreshing and not overly sweet. Definitely a great lunch but it did take a while to get our food even though we were they only customers there at the time. The pricing for food here was very reasonable and the food quality was great. I've never had such crispy waffle fries (tops Chick-fil-A waffle fries). Give this place a shot!
Got a fried chicken dinner from here with Mac and cheese and fries as a side. The fried chicken was a 10/10 and the waffle fries were also amazing- the Mac and cheese was good not great. The cornbread was like a dessert. This place does fried chicken and does it WELL

This was a cute spot. Seating available outside and you order through a little windo. No real dining experience but for grab and go it's a good spot. Food was good. Fried food was light and crunchy. The only thing we didn't like was the Mac and cheese. It felt like it was leftovers from a previous day and it was gritty. Anything but that was a good choice. We will be back!

This was definitely the BEST fried chicken I've had in a long time! It was so crispy and flavorful on the outside but yet so juicy and tender on the inside! We ordered the chicken tenders and fries, the chicken and waffles, the chicken sandwich on the honey biscuit and a side of baked Mac n cheese. The comeback sauce was the perfect accompaniment to the tenders with just the right amount of kick. Everything was so delicious and we will definitely be going back there very soon.. If I could rate it more than 5 stars I would!

They were out of the fried chicken plate, so I went for the fried tenders and a couple of sides. The meat was perfect - juicy but not raw, however, the breading had no crunch at all - it was just chewy. Chips were chewy too and fried pickles were burnt. Not much cheese in the Mac and cheese. Coleslaw was good if you like a lot of celery.I guess, overall, it's good quantity for the price, but the quality is questionable.

I am disappointed to say that my past 3 visits to Bucktown have been very poor experiences. The chicken was legitimately inedible and had to be thrown in the trash both of the last two times I ordered a Chicken Sando. When they first opened, the food was great. Lately, i can honestly say I get a better quality piece of fried chicken at a Wendy’s. No wonder why they are going out of business.
