    I was quite shocked at the prices for chicken tender sandwiches if they were about 3 dollars cheaper. Now, we ordered almost the whole menu. I enjoyed several of the items, very tasty, Nashville sandwich, the avocado baccon spinach wrap, and wings. Now, it seems they specialize in their sauces, and they seem homemade, and that may contribute to the sandwiches being a tad high in price. I was very happy with the peanut sauce, the dragonfruit, and just wow on the honeymustard. The hot sauces my friends seem to enjoy. They had the crab ragoon chicken, jalapeños chicken popper sandwich, and chicken wings (tad small ) but tasty, and I believe it had half hot and half peanut sauce. They have adorable kids' meal bags.Adorable baskets are that the fries come in and are very tasty. Go check it out.

    Not bad for a new place. Chicken was good with lots of flavor. We did wait a while (20 minutes) but it’s a new place so I give them that. The menu inside is hard to read on the digital displays. Would be nice to have print out menus you can look at as alternative. I’d recommend for giving them a try. As with most places now a day, plan on $20 a person.

    Wow! I was pleasantly surprised by this place. I'm honestly a bit of a picky eater (I have very discriminatory taste) but everything was so delicious.

    First time here and I ordered the Chicken Bacon Avocado Wrap. It was so good! High quality food. You can tell from the taste.

    I tried the dragon fruit sauce as it was recommended by other reviews. Personally I don't have much to say about it. It was pretty plain, just sweet and very mild. Not exciting. As someone who likes more of a kick, or burst of flavor, I could take it or leave it.

    But I will RAVE about the peanut sauce. Absolutely SO mouth wateringly good! Reminds me of Thai food/pairs perfectly with the taste of chicken.

    The wait time after we ordered was about 20 minutes but it was dinner time on a Saturday and they were super busy. It was worth the wait.

    I found the concrete tables at the booth a little bit odd as a decorative choice, as it doesn't lend to a very comfy texture or visually appealing surface.

    The music in the restaurant consisted mainly of top rock hits from the 70s and 80s, I'm sure it's meant to be a crowd pleaser but was a bit cliche and nothing impressive.

    Other than that I really have nothing less than positive to say!

    Also, I love that their fountain features the Stubborn Soda brand. Stubborn is a company I love to support as they use fair trade cane sugar as their sweetener. The Pineapple Cream Soda was a new flavor for me and did not disappoint.

    Definitely a place to return to!

    Decided to try this place out today. It was ok.

    For starters if a place is named the Chicken Shanty I'd expect bone in fried chicken besides chicken wings but I was wrong. They serve chicken strips, chicken wings, chicken sandwiches and a chicken wrap.

    I ordered the 3 piece original chicken basket with fries and honey Mustard. The breading was bland and not crispy. The chicken meat also had no flavor. The honey Mustard is what brought the meal alive. You can tell the sauce was made with the hot Mustard you usually get with pork and seeds. The fries were also bland and warm, not hot.

    I also ordered a 6 piece bone in wings with the sweet chili sauce. I suggest getting the sauce on the side for a crunching wing. They tossed the wings in the sauce which made them seem like rubber when eating them. The sauce left a lot to be desired for.

    In total I paid 22 and some change for an average meal. I truly don't see myself eating here again.

    I loved this place!! What a cute joint, so friendly and felt good coming in here. The people were nice the food was great and we all left FULL. I loved all the sauce choices and the crab sandwich with coconut chicken was bomb. My kids loved that the kids meals were just strips and fries in adorable bags. They are little animals and were happy to pick. We loved it and will definitely be making this a regular stop
