Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers — Restaurant in Colorado

Okay, cluck cluck, gather 'round fellow chickens, because I’ve got a tale to tell about a place called Raising Cane’s Chicken Fingers. First of all, the name alone gives me the heebie-jeebies. I mean, fingers? Really? What's next, Feather Fries?

So, I decided to take a little undercover operation to see what all the fuss was about. And let me tell you, it’s a bizarre experience from a chicken’s perspective. The moment you walk in, it's like being in an alternate universe where humans worship our kind… by eating us. The irony!

The menu is basically a tribute to chicken fingers. You’ve got your combo meals, your Texas toast, crinkle-cut fries, and of course, their famous Cane’s sauce. Now, I have to admit, the smell is pretty darn irresistible. If I weren’t a chicken, I’d be drooling. And that sauce? I overheard a human saying it’s “liquid gold.” If only I had taste buds, I’d be curious to try it myself.

The humans there are super friendly and seem to love their jobs, which is nice. They sing, they dance, they smile – it’s like a clucking happy camp in there. And the way they talk about the chicken fingers, you’d think they were discussing fine art. “Perfectly crispy,” they say. “Juicy on the inside,” they boast. Meanwhile, I’m just trying to keep a low profile and not end up as part of their next combo meal.

The decor is pretty snazzy too, with lots of cool chicken-themed stuff. It’s almost like they’re trying to make us feel at home. But let’s be real, no amount of chicken-friendly decor is going to change the fact that this place is a chicken’s worst nightmare.

So, fellow feathered friends, if you’re ever feeling brave or just a bit reckless, take a peek inside a Raising Cane’s. Just be prepared for the ultimate clash of chicken admiration and chicken consumption. And remember, if you see a fellow chicken on the menu, pour one out (metaphorically) for your fallen comrade. Cluck on, my...

This place sucks. The food was grossly overinflated with value. I ordered a chicken sandwich combo. I asked them if they had ranch dressing for dipping sauce. And they said: "No. But we have 'Canes Sauce,' Ketchup, Mayo, and just about everything except Ranch Dressing." The quality of the fries were lessor than that of the frozen food section at Wal-mart!! I mean the food was NOT worth $8.00. Raising Canes is not doing well because their food is exceptional. They are doing well because of social advancement reasons. In other words it's like fashion. But with fast food. In other words: It's summer time 2017 as I'm typing up this review. And the college kids are home for summer break. And the college kids like to rent-a-friend through sororities fraternities. And they like to drink alcohol and smoke lot's of weed under the table. Because they don't have anything more productive to do. So when you drink alcohol and smoke lot's of weed, you become really hungry. And so this place is temporarily doing well because of the "perceived social popularity factor." But remember: The popularity will start to fade in a few short years because something else that is perceived to be cooler will have taken it's place. I mean you saw this same type of thing happen with Krisby Kreme donuts about 17 years ago. And look at how that ended for them. Then people started to flock to Lamar's donuts. Because that became the "new cool factor." Would somebody like to get prideful and disprove with your...

The chicken strips were really good, perhaps better than the other fast food places; but, maybe not as good as some of the casual dining restaurants. The coleslaw was better than the other fast food restaurant that also serves chicken and coleslaw. As for the fries, not bad; but, nothing special - sort of like the frozen fries sold at the super market. Lots of people rave about the bread, and yes, it was soft and fluffy; but, I personally don't see the point of getting bread on the side with chicken that's already breaded and fries. The Cane sauce was actually pretty good with the chicken and fries if you like dipping your food; although I couldn't make out what might be in it. Overall, the staff seems really nice and welcoming. The restaurant seems to always be packed, so as much as I'd love to have fresh, hot, chicken strips, it seems best to order to go - especially if there's more than two of you (the place is small). If you love chicken strips, tenders, fingers, or whatever you want to call them, I would highly recommend trying Raising Cane's. Just be cautious that the restaurant usually seems busy, so not a good idea to stop by if you are in a rush - we waited about 15 minutes for 4 orders (2 Caniac Combos and 2 Box Combos). The drive through seemed slow as well, I'd say about 5 minutes per car. It is freshly made food, so the wait can...
