Angry Chicken (Colorado Springs) & Juicy 88 Hotdog — Restaurant in Colorado Springs

Went there last night with the family. We ordered the half and half chicken, the American hotdog, and fries. The place is clean and the service was good. Staff was friendly and the place was busy.

After ordering the waitress asked if we would like the complementary coleslaw that comes with their meals, I said sure why not, but don't really care for it, but the wife likes it. They show up with a small dish with maybe 2 table spoons wroth of coleslaw, lol. If all 3 of us wanted to eat it, we would've had a hard time.

My daughter gets the hotdog, or corndog, was it is very hot, which is good. The corn part slide off the stick and this white gooey stuff starts to come out of it, i thought it was cheese, but she ordered the american cheese, but that shouldn't matter. So she tries it and says there is no taste to it, so i try it, it was raw dough which looked like melted cheese. Gross. So we brought this up to the waitress and she said it happens a lot......... and she left. lol.

The chicken came out and it was ok, even though half of it was covered in sauce........... it tasted like water downed sauce, but it was cooked all the way at least. The other half was naked and when you bit into it was pink/purple, undercooked, as the same with the hotdog the waitress dismissed it as it happens all the time there. The other thing about this naked chicken was the amount of grease that poured from it. KFC and popeyes always has a lot of grease and I am use to that with fired chicken, but I have never had it were your just holding the chicken and it is leaking grease onto the table, kind of like a very oily slice of pizza.

So for the best part............ the fries were good, but its kind of hard to mess that up.

We will not be going back, the prices were a little high for the amount of chicken you get, but that didn't bother us as much as uncooked food being dismissed by the waitress as it all part of the meal. It's crazy for me to think, that they think, it was properly "cooked" because it happens all the time. Fix it.

Edit: Since I saw you responded I feel I need to respond to your response. I know the difference between cheese and dough, that was not cheese, i saw the cheese in there, I was talking about the raw dough that was clearly there. The inside of the chicken wings was pink/purple, not cooked all the way. The way you have responded seems to me you think we are the only ones that have had that issue, but if you look at the other reviews, there are a lot of people who have had this issue with your chicken. I am glad for the removal of the some items on the bill, but I wish it...

Edit as of 1\28\23:

Holy cow, they have IMPROVED SO MUCH! We went when it was slow but the wait was not long, the food was hot and delicious, the drinks were considerably better and the layout improved. Less clutter, less confusion, less running around. They got their act together and everything was great!

Original: Two stars only because of one of the workers putting in ALL the effort. I think his name is Geno or Juno? Poor guy was trying the hardest.

No website, no Facebook update, no one picked up the phone. They completely need help with their online presence. They also need help with their collaboration with Juicy 88. It's ridiculous to have a kiosk and a cashier for Juicy 88 but a separate lone desk in the same lobby for Angry Chicken. The workflow is absolutely destroyed for customers who end up confused as where to be AND the extra time for employees to explain. I can only imagine the anger of a customer who waits in line to only be told to go to the OTHER desk to order what they need. They also threw us back and forth between the two because no one knew who was supposed to cook cheese bokki corn dogs. Then told us they were out...about 20 minutes later. They have no communication between the two restaurants to even know their inventory! Really?

The drinks are GROSS (Apple and Thai tea) with overcooked boba. Weak, mushy, thin, no sweetness. There are NO SEASONINGS on anything either! Everything tastes bland and mushy. No salt. No pepper. Nothing crispy, nothing hot. The condiments are heavily relied on and they aren't even good enough to rely on. The honey is thin, the spicy is non existent, etc. Ran out of just about everything towards end of the day.

They were not ready for opening or any of the days that followed. They needed a whole extra year...

I've been coming to this location since they opened, and while the service has always been good, unfortunately they've gotten worse when it comes to prices and portion sizes. We all know that prices are going up because of inflation, but nobody wants the combination of paying more AND getting less, and that's been the case here. The size of the wings have gotten smaller (if that's out of their control due to the distributor, then adjust the price accordingly, or add an extra wing, etc.), they charge for their sauces (I've never heard of a wing place charging for sauce on the wings), and the sides that are served (the radish and coleslaw) are laughable in portion size, especially the fact that they give you a single portion of each regardless of the amount of people in your party.

I was with one of the previous reviewers (Michael B.) and the 3 of us ordered 3 orders of wings and an entree, and barely got half a cup of both radish and coleslaw for all 3 of us to share. When we asked if we would get additional side dishes because of our order, we were told that regardless of party size, that's all that we would get and that we could order and pay for more if we wanted (the owner's original response to Michael B. made excuses about the price of radish and claimed that we could have asked for more given our order size, but it appears the response has been changed/edited -- should have grabbed a screenshot).

It's disappointing how this place has gone downhill since opening. I don't want to assume, but I feel like compared to the Denver area that has several Korean wing restaurants, with Angry Chicken being the only one in Colorado Springs, the lack of options and "competition" has allowed to them get very lax and let...
