If you're looking for exceptional service, this might not be the spot. However, if you're craving delicious food, you're in luck! I played it safe and ordered the chicken wings and potato wedges. I was blown away by the quality! The chicken wings were top-notch - crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. My husband even enjoyed the little wing tips, which says a lot! The potato wedges were massive and thick, but I was surprised to only receive four pieces. Despite the limited quantity, they were cooked just right and tasted great. Overall, while the service might not be the strongest, the food definitely makes up for it. If you're a foodie looking for tasty chicken and sides, this spot is worth checking out! I'm still thinking about those chicken wings, and I wish I could've ordered more before leaving Louisville. They were that good! If I ever find myself back in the city, I'll be sure to stop by again and get my wing fix. Also note that I went through drive through so that could explain the off-service because the line was long lol and it did not look like they was going to get a break anytime soon

The potato wedges ARE the best I've ever had in Louisville & I've tried everywhere (Indis, Chicken King, etc.)... the chicken though.. it tasted about the same as Indis if I was being honest. It was crispy & juicy however it just wasn't flavorful or spicy enough for me to be at the very top of my favorite fried chicken restaurants list. Not to mention the wait to order and get out was very long. I wouldn't say I'll drive out of way but if I am ever in the area again, I'll gladly stop by again.

Best chicken around so far. You know they’re good bc they keep running out of the good food, but there’s a shortage. Spicy wasn’t that spicy to me, but my coworker said it was very spicy. Good crispiness and flavor!

18pc Spicy, Small - Broccoli Ched Rice, and 3 Wedges. Wing pieces are always made to order. It helps bring out the spiciness, that is soooo addictive. A MUST visit, for out of towners.
