From the moment I discovered Southern Style Chicken & Waffle, it’s become my absolute favorite spot for a flavorful and satisfying meal. I can confidently say this place deserves all five stars — and more! Everything from the food quality to the customer service here is outstanding.

Let me start with the chicken: it’s simply excellent. The tenders are always perfectly seasoned, crispy on the outside, juicy and tender on the inside — just how real chicken tenders should be. You can tell they care about freshness because they always ask if you’d prefer your chicken freshly made. I personally always choose fresh, and it’s absolutely worth the short wait. Sometimes I go run a few quick errands, and by the time I return, I’m welcomed with a hot, freshly prepared meal that is beyond delicious. The experience of biting into a freshly made tender here is like no other — crunchy, flavorful, and perfectly cooked every single time.

And the waffles? Out of this world. Soft, warm, golden-brown with that delightful touch of sweetness — they complement the chicken like a dream. The waffle and chicken combo here is unbeatable, and it’s what Southern comfort food should be all about. It’s clear that everything is prepared with care, and the quality is consistent each time I visit.

Now, let’s talk about the prices. For the high quality and generous portions you receive, the pricing is incredibly reasonable. It’s not easy to find a place where the food is this good, this fresh, and still affordable. Southern Style Chicken & Waffle delivers value in every way possible.

But what truly makes this place stand out is the staff — especially Abdulla. His service is top-notch. He’s welcoming, courteous, and genuinely goes out of his way to make sure you have a great experience.

He remembers his regulars, treats everyone with kindness, and is always happy to help. You can tell he takes pride in what he does, and it shows in the overall atmosphere of the restaurant.

Five stars for Southern Style Chicken & Waffle. From the moment I walked in, the vibe was warm and inviting, and the food did not disappoint. The chicken was delicious and well seasoned—crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside—paired perfectly with a light, fluffy waffle.
