Read morei’ve never heard of pelican before so i was excited to see one in my neighborhood, tried it out for the first time with a couple of my close friends (they were more excited to see that they served beer more then anything) but chicken and beers? what better way to spend the night LOL, after looking over there menu mind you everything looked amazing we decided to get one of there combo choices since it was a ground of 3 of us .. great choice btw especially if your a first time because it gives you a variety of items all in one plate. we decided on the combo whatever #2 which included crispy boneless chicken, french fries,onion rings,cheese sticks, salad and of course dipping sauce for each item , with there french fries they serve it with ketchup and spicy mayo omg i will never eat fries with out that spicy mayo again , the honey garlic and pelicana signature dipping sauce for that crispy chicken was an excellent recommendation!!! service was great, and the music they played was amazing !! definitely recommend this place for a nice place to catch up with your...
