The wings appeared dry with coarse yellow crystals on top rather than being coated in the usual buttery lemon pepper sauce. The flavor also didn’t have that rich, tangy, buttery balance that makes your wings stand out. I understand this is a new location and there can be differences in preparation, but the taste and texture were noticeably off from the classic recipe.
I wanted to mention this in case the kitchen team isn’t aware of how the lemon pepper wings are typically prepared at other JR Crickets locations. Hopefully, this helps ensure consistency across all stores because JR Crickets wings are a local favorite!
The cleanliness of the place was another big issue. It felt unsanitary from the start. There was a dog roaming around the establishment, which is just not acceptable in a food setting. On top of that, someone’s box of food was placed inside the drink cooler, which is completely unhygienic and unprofessional. The whole experience felt off, and it seemed like no one was really paying attention to the details. Overall, I’m beyond unsatisfied with my visit, and I won’t be coming back. I’d advise anyone thinking about going here to seriously reconsider. It’s disappointing to see a place that could be nice fall so short in so many ways.
For 30 minutes, she argued with the cook and me, refusing to provide service and telling the cook not to address the issue. The cook even attempted to fix the order and pay for it but she called him names for trying to diffuse the situation. It wasn’t until 45 minutes later that the manager arrived to close the store. I informed her of the situation, and then she finally fixed part of the order, but the original food was cold. She started cleaning and sweeping and acted as if she wanted to sweep out feet if we didn’t move.
I’m thankful I used DoorDash because this awful server didn’t receive any gratuity from me. I would not recommend ordering from here. There are other locations with much better customer service. I never imagined that asking for a correction to an order I paid for would lead to such disrespect. I thank God for my beauty, brains and COMPOSURE—this behavior was completely unacceptable.
I recently ordered food from JR Crickets, and unfortunately, the experience was terrible from start to finish. Due to my long work hours, I had a friend pick up the food for us. She mentioned that the customer service was not so great, but we still gave the restaurant a chance because we were hungry.
I wanted ribs, but the cashier/server stated they had just gotten done and needed to cool before serving, so we ordered wings, fries, etc. After ordering, we noticed a $6 automatic gratuity charge added to the order. When we asked about it, the owner explained that the fee was implemented during the pandemic to ensure servers received proper tips, and there was a sign posted about it. While we weren’t completely comfortable with that, we decided to go ahead with our order.
The biggest issue came when I received the food. We had ordered a side of coleslaw, but when I tasted it, it had a horrible sour smell and taste and the temperature was off. As soon as I took a bite, the taste made me cringe as well along with noticing a gnat on the container. Some of the fries were undercooked, the tenders were soft, and slightly bland. I immediately called the restaurant, and the server was unapologetic. She kept placing me on hold several times without resolving the issue. She offered to replace the coleslaw or give fries, which I didn’t want, and eventually told me they wouldn’t issue a refund.
The lack of care and the quality of the food were unacceptable. I later checked reviews online and saw similar complaints from other customers regarding the automatic gratuity, poor food quality.
I wanted to support this business, but after this experience, I will not return and urge others to think twice before visiting. This is not how you treat paying customers.
I will write a review every single time i visit this location to eat or dash and the service is BAD! Also, the floors need to be renovated, it looked unappealing to the eye. Yea!
