"The cook absolutely snapped on my food. Was the crispiest most flavorful and delicious chicken ive ever had at the late hour that i ordered (3 am) "
"Lets see... first let me say this location always manages to fumble my ordersomehow, some way. And, each time I always hooethe next time will be better..but noooo. So, this time I. order the 16Pc Signature Chicken Family Meal and got Soggy, greasy, undercooked or recooked chicken gross chicken..thrown in a raggedy box. .All of my sides were half filled! The threw a ball of glob in literally for the max and cheese. Coleslaw was hot and has a weird taste. Eight stuff dry biscuits.. thank goodness I caught the delivery driver while he was still at the store to ask him to request some packets of honey and ketchup etc.if not it would have just been dry choke biscuits. And,then to top it off they had the audacity to be petty about utensils...which they woul not have added had the delivery person not asked. Lol needless to say they literally ripped the bag open and tossed in 2 forks for an entire 16 piece 16Pc Signature Chicken Family Meal..wow. I tried calling the restaurant to voice my issues..but Of course noone answers the phone. Worst Popeyes I've ever patronized. "

"this is the third time I've ordered the new mini taco salad and will not order it again. The amount of ingredients varies each time, typically skimping on the beef (once so skimpy I thought they forgot it entirely) snother time completely omitted sauce and/or cheese, and the last time it tasted like all the ingredients were thoroughly rinsed with water until no taste remained at all... and then didn't strain the water out 🤢"
