Chick Magnet - Fried Chicken — Restaurant in Town of Brighton

Amazing dishes! The sandwiches are super filling and delicious. By far the best chicken sandwich you can get around here. Also this is the only place that I know of that does ribbon fries, which are a personal favorite of mine. I keep ordering them but the sandwiches usually are so big that I just have a fair amount of leftovers, so they're best bought to share if you have multiple people with you. The food is great, but... 2 times out of 2 so far my order has been incorrect. The first time when I dined in, I got the wrong sandwich. For me this isn't a big deal because I'll eat practically anything, but for a lot of other people they would be a bit upset. I did bring this to the attention of the staff, and they did offer to make the correct sandwich for me. I didn't take them up on this offer, but they did certainly make it right by doing that. That I chalked up to the staff getting used to their setups; it makes sense plus to be fair, this was the first week that they opened. The second time I straight up had an extra dish that was likely placed in my bag in error, which I didn't realize until I brought my order home. I feel really bad about that as I could have just checked before I left and given it back so that someone who was to have it would have, but with how my order was brought over I assumed it was checked already. Because they are willing to make it up to people, I put them at a 3/5 for service but a 5/5 for me would be if they get it right the first time. I can potentially see companies ordering here in the middle of the day only to get back to their offices with incorrect/missing items. The atmosphere is fine, serviceable and clean would be the best...

I went to Chick Magnet at their new location with my kid who is a tendie afficionado.

We each ordered the 3 piece tenders, loaded fries, regular fries and 2 drinks. This set me back about $40 which isn't too bad on average, but turned out to be a pretty great value.

Readers, these tenders were enormous. I kid you not, a single one of them is probably the same amount of meat as 3 or 4 from something like Popeyes or KFC. They were huge and juicy with a nice light breading. We could not eat all this food, we ended up with ample leftovers. We could have split the tenders and still not finished our fries and been stuffed.

The loaded fries I got were also exceptional. Made with real bits of crumbled bacon and a real cheese sauce, they were delicious. This was no neon orange nacho sauce, it was clearly made with actual cheese and was perfectly silky and cheesy.

The staff was very nice, the dining area was roomy and well lit and clean. The wait was very reasonable (no wait to order for us, maybe 15 minutes to get the food despite the clearly having a ton of to-go orders and a steady stream of eat in diners).

My kid loved it, I loved it, the value was very good. I can't wait to go back and try the other items...

This is hands down the best chicken joint I've ever been to. My fiancé and I have come here maybe once every other week on average for the last few months and have not been disappointed. Biggest take away is just the size of the chicken tenders you get, they're a good size. I was kind of surprised the first time coming here and seeing them because I've never been to a place that serves tenders of the size they have. I've not tried everything on their menu but I've had the regular tenders, the Nashville tenders (all 3 levels) and the Rileys Chick sandwich. I was not a huge fan of the sandwich, the sweet onion jam was not for me but I did not let that affect the 5 star food score I'm giving this place. The chicken is perfectly cooked every time and has the right amount of seasonings, making it well worth the price. If you're trying to see how the chicken from here compares to other places that serve tenders, there's no comparison. Most places just drop the tenders in the fryer and overcook them or already have some made. The tenders here are cooked to just the right amount of tenderness and are made to...
