What our guests are saying
Came in for an unplanned lunch and was pleasantly surprised. The original chicken sandwich was juicy, hot, and crispy on arrival. It was definitely fresh, which was surprising since the wait was relatively short. The chicken and waffle was of a similar quality, and the coconut oil for the waffle is my new favorite thing to eat on waffles! Overall, a good experience, especially for the price.

Really enjoyed Ali’s chicken and waffles! Everything there is halal and so tasty. The chicken was so crispy and medium spice was perfect! The worker was very sweet and food came out within a few mins. Would highly recommend and go again!
