Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers — Restaurant in Gainesville

I came in with low expectations since I had some friends spoil the experience for me haha. But if I had walked in super excited i would’ve been sadly disappointed. My bf and I both ordered the 3 finger combo with lemonade. We both chose lemonade to compare it to other establishments. I will say I did enjoy it and it wasn’t too sour ( I don’t like extremely sour lemonade), it was balanced and refreshing. I had some leftover and brought it back to my apartment for late night thirstyness. So the bread was pretty good and honestly probably my favorite thing in the meal. It was so fluffy and had a nice buttery and garlic flavor 10/10 I wish I could buy a whole bunch to take home. For the tenders I was not too impressed. It had no flavor and they looked bland. I wish it had some sort of seasoning. The tenders were so tiny and that’s when I realized that the advertisement image is so misleading. The fries weren’t seasoned either so they were pretty plain to me . The crunch was there it just needed some salt. For the sauce I felt that it was just peppery . There were no other flavors to the sauce and it’s a tiny cup ( if you want more it’s 42 cents each cup) so I had 2 tenders with it and was done with it granted my bf made a sandwich and it tasted better together than the items eating them separately if that makes sense. Not sure if I would come back but would stop by to grab some bread not gonna lie. I wanted to check it out for myself and see if I would actually like it but it wasn’t bad and it wasn’t like mind...

The new hype-and well worth it. I tried this place because of all the positive reviews I've heard. The atmosphere is very relaxed and chic. From disco balls to a variety of seating arrangements (tall chairs to normal and group arrangements to a two-person setup), it also has a mix of different music and cool history of Gainesville snd Florida Gators on the wall. The service was great, the staff friendly and overall a well-oiled machine. They had a lot of customers but the wait wasn't bad at all and my speciality order came out perfect. The important part-food-it was delicious! I ordered the samdwhich with a peice of Texas toast on the side. It was hot and fresh. And even though it was the end of the day, the lettuce was still fresh too. The fries were wavy cut and crunchy. Their specialty Cane sauce is delicious too. I highly reccomend this place!! Beware of parking-it could be slightly difficult to park due to its location of nestled in shops, but that didn't seem to stop the flow of people coming in, so I'm sure they had...

I absolutely loved this new restaurant in Gainesville with a couple of huge negatives. First, the food is terrific, as was the service. The place was noisy but inviting. My main negatives are that there is no accessible parking, especially for ADA compliance. We all know that even street parking in that area is a complete nightmare. The fact that there isn't a drive thru makes it even more disappointing. Given just those two negatives, my concerns are that this business is missing out in a very big way, throwing away income/business, all due to location and no drive thru. The latter alone is a huge loss of income. Raising Cane's could be doing triple the business if not more. That's how good the food is. Sadly, this was my first visit, but because of the huge effort it takes just to get there, it'll be my last. I would definitely go there a lot more. To me, it's a huge bummer when Gainesville finally gets a great place, but you don't want to deal with their accessibility or lack thereof. Otherwise, I would have given...
