The store was packed. The wait wasn’t too long. The Chicken Strips were delicious with the sauce. They seem to be smaller than when the stores first opened.
The fries weren’t fresh, even though we ordered in and waited.
Everything was still good.

This Raising Cane’s location was quite good. Instead of using the drive-thru, we decided to go inside to order takeout. The interior of the store is similar to other Cane’s locations, and the staff was very friendly and quick with our orders.
As for the food, the combo was fresh and tasty. The chicken was tender, and the fries were extra crispy. While the chicken could have been crispier on the outside, the flavor made up for the lack of texture. My only complaint is the amount of fries in the combo; it was not as much as shown in the photo. The toast included in the combo was just okay, as was the coleslaw.
Pro tip: If you have a gluten allergy and cannot have the crust on the chicken, be sure to ask for “naked chicken” when you order.

Ok if you are doing only one thing, then it better be pretty special… ANYTHING but special here (sauce exception). First disqualification is crinkle cut fries, these are the lowest on the fries food chain and lacking crisp and flavor. I could sit these in the sun and they would get more color.. they looked anemic and sickly. Chicken was no 11 spices and secret seasoning, matter of fact the secret may be WHERE IS THE FLAVOR. The bread had the most flavor and slaw was OK, but could get the same at the ACME across the parking lot, quite possibly better flavored chicken too. Extremely disappointed for a one trick food chain to have zero magic.

1st time trying. This particular restaurant location was very dirty, but the staff was super friendly & the food was ok. It was a special trip for my son who has been wanting to try it, but we won’t be taking the drive again. Kind of disappointed.

Where to start?! This Raising canes definitely lived up to its hype!! I entered the drive through and it was a bit of a wait but the customer service definitely made up for that wait! The lady who took my order started off with “hey hey hey” and that gave off the best vibe right away. The food was so good and it was unbelievably fresh and crunchy which is exactly what I wanted. Imagine this… it’s 3am you wake up and get to drink of a nice cold glass of water with a dry mouth. That’s exactly how I would compare this food entering my mouth. On top of all this amazing food I went to use the bathroom of course and let me tell you.. those bathrooms were very nice after an incredible meal. I would 100% recommend going to this canes compared to others!! This one blew right out the water and is #1 on my list. A special thanks to the employees making my food.

I ordered thru Doordash and the caniac combo I ordered was great, but the lemonade I ordered was bad enough that it caused me to write this review. It literally tastes like it was made with sink water, I know that’s very specific but that’s the best way I can describe it. I couldn’t even finish the lemonade I ended up dumping it.

They have a great young staff here we stopped in on a busy Saturday afternoon and the service was amazingly fast. Food was hot & served almost immediately. Raising cane’s on the east coast is not as good as the west but this location does it right. Playground right next door is great when you have kids

I was there to pick up a DoorDash order but seems like a nice place considering it was my first time inside any of their locations. Truth be told, I would probably only eat their food if someone else paid. Their prices are pretty high for a place that just sells chicken fingers.

Had a very good experience here. Got the box deal that had 4 chicken strips,cold slaw, fries,texas toast, and a half filled plastic container of sauce for the chicken. Everything was hot on delivery, the taste of the chicken was very good. Tasted better than the other chicken place that isn’t open on Sundays. Just tried this brand for the first time. We liked it so much, we will be back.

They basically only have chicken fingers and a chicken sandwich for entrees. They have homemade sauces, their special sauce which to me had a black peppery flavor and honey mustard that tasted mayo like to me. They have ketchup but not BBQ sauce which I found odd and I really think would have made it more enjoyable for me. I thought the chicken was good quality. The fries are a thin crinkle cut. Not a coleslaw fan so I can’t comment on that. My favorite part of the meal (besides the little ice that’s fun to chew) was the garlic bread. My 11yo thought it was the best chicken and fries he has had so we will likely be going back. The facility itself was new, bright and clean. Staff friendly. The parking lot lay out was strange to me. Looked like people were moving pretty quickly through the drive in but we dined in so can’t say for sure. Definitely worth a try!
