I ate a slightly-early lunch today [10-27-2022] at Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers at 10 E. 11th Ave. in the "South Campus Gateway" area of the "University District" neighborhood of Columbus [directly across the street from Barnes and Noble at The Ohio State University].
I had been attending a meeting that morning at the Ohio Union so eating at Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers [one of the twenty restaurants that are currently in the "43201" section of my list of restaurants at which to eat "on behalf of Google Maps" had been an obvious choice for lunch.
I had studied the Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers menu on-line in advance of my visit and learned that there are actually very few choices when ordering a meal. I assume that their limited menu is so that they will be able to serve as many customers as possible in as little time as possible.
I resented having to pay for and choose a soft drink when my usual practice is to order no drink or to order "just water. " I did order Sprite with my meal since my only option when ordering had been to pay for a soft drink.
Below is what I had ordered earlier today.
The Box Combo®: [four Chicken Fingers, Crinkle-Cut Fries, One Cane's Sauce®, Texas Toast, Coleslaw, and a Regular Fountain Drink/Tea (22 oz.)].
I now know what "Chicken Fingers" [at least according to Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers] are.
It had been difficult for me to figure out how best to eat my four "Chicken Fingers." Initially, I had picked them up with my hands and had eaten them directly; I later decided to experiment with using a fork instead but neither of those options had been optimal.
The tiny little container of coleslaw that had been served with my meal had obviously been stored in an extremely humid refrigerator for many hours immediately before being served with the result that the outside of the container had been covered with "dew" and had been quite slippery to pick up and hold while eating.
If you are in the "University District" neighborhood of Columbus and are curious what "Chicken Fingers" are, I recommend eating at Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers at 10...
Read moreTonight I was at Raising Canes on Ohio State University Campus 10 E 11th ave. When I Order 6 piece combo for 10.99 which came out to be 11:52 and paid 15$ and 3.48$ back. I proceeded to wait on my order Which wasn’t not called because the lack of staff! And the staff being overwhelmed and the traffic of drunk college students! The Raising canes employees start handing out orders forgetting call out on names or taking the receipt from the customer to insure the orders were correct! My order number was 645 they preceded to call 675. Which mean my order was skipped, I was standing right in the front of the register to hear my name which wasn’t called. Being frustrated not getting my order, I’ve start to conversant with the a other customer who stated that his two buddies who didn’t order just took random orders because the staff wasn’t calling out names or taking tickets but were simply hangout orders. I told the staff that my order was taking because they simply handed out my order without questioning the receipt. I was later kicked out because I demand my food to be made when I was waiting for 15 minutes while my Uber was outside waiting. Also I was racial profilled by the raising canes employees of 10 E 11th ave, as I was waiting talking to the one of the employees ( chubby guy with glasses ) there was an caucasian male who was demanding and frustrated that his food was taking just like mine. He wanted a remake, we both demanded that we need one. As an African American I was kicked out while let the Caucasian man get his food, while me as an African American was kicked out and robbed from Raising Canes @ 10 E 11th AVE because I never got my food! Employees did nothing but...
Read moreAs an avid Canes go-er, I thought it was important to discuss accessibility at one of my favorite dinner spots. There are two entrances/exits at this location, but only one is wheelchair accessible, and neither are automatic. The other entrance has a small set of stairs leading to the door, but a railing is provided. Inside Canes, there are different types of seating options such as tables, booths, and high top tables, offering many options of accessibility. There is also an outside table right outside the door. When it's busy, it may be overwhelming for individuals with a sensory processing disorder as there are crowds of people both ordering and waiting for their orders, as well as music playing. There is also a disco ball inside which may disturb people who have visual impairments, although it is not always spinning. There are two bathrooms with push doors. Inside each bathroom there's a changing table, but probably would not support an adult. There is room for a wheelchair in both bathrooms, but it would be hard to navigate the wheelchair to the sink because of the placement of the toilet. Since there isn't a parking lot, you will likely have a small walk before you get here. However, this location is directly in front of the crosswalk on High Street. There are both audio and visual clues at the crosswalk that inform you when it's...
