Smokehouse N Broasters Calgary — Restaurant in Calgary

I've driven by this joint a million times and was always intrigued. I decided to look into the place, so I checked reviews online, and nearly all of them talked about the chicken being great, but the service was very rude. Ive got a thick skin so I knew I had to try it. I rolled into the kinda dirty (but in a charming way) place and ordered a family pack of chicken, with fries, 2 salads and a 2L soft drink. As expected, the chicken was f**king excellent, due to their method of cooking the chicken "broasting' which is pretty much pressure cooking the chicken in oil. Juicy and flavourful as it should be. The fries were alright, although I suspect they would have been very good if we had have eaten at the diner, rather than take out. The closed container yielded soggy fries by the time we got to them 10 minutes later. And you know what? The service was just fine. It wasn't all smiles and fake pleasantness, the guy just took our order, cooked the food and took payment without saying...

I went in to get lunch and asked the owner if he had any lunch specials and he rudely responded you got your shots, I said I am not staying and asked again. He rudely gestured to his counter where there was a wide assortment of papers only 2 of with were actually menus After I order he said you have to wait outside cause you're not staying. I said I am not waiting outside while I wait for my food, he said hey man I don't make the rules and continued to tell me about a customer who got upset with him cause he didn't want to show proof of vaccination for a take out order. I informed him that is not one of the rules. He was very rude and short with me from the very beginning of our conversation. I will not be...

We ordered fish and chips and 1 piece of chicken last week. We have ordered take out from here several times in the past and it was awesome, what we loved was the fish, fries and chicken were never greasy. This last meal we ordered was horrible. The fish was cooked almost to the point of being burned, you couldn't eat the batter and the fish inside was almost jerky. The piece of chicken was no better. The fries were at least edible, they were not great and greasy. Honestly this meal cost me $55.00 which is expensive, but because we have had awesome meals in the past I didn't mind the cost. After receiving this meal I'll never order from them again. This meal never should have left...
