Chicken or the Egg

Went here for lunch and the food was delicious. I ordered the three wing platter with macaroni and cheese and cornbread. You can order any of the check platters fried or rotisserie. The rotisserie wings that day had a honey jerk glaze on them that was very flavorful! The baked Mac and cheese was creamy, and highly recommended by other customers there. I would definitely return to try the other platters. There was a pretty large dining room area if you wanted to sit down and enjoy your food. Service was quick!

The restaurant is very clean, easy to navigate, and the owners/staff are very friendly. The food was pretty good. My husband loved the chicken and waffles (so, 5 stars to the chicken!!) and I enjoyed my veggie omelet though it wasn't something to write about. They serve the eggs with hash browns which were good but on the greasy side, and an English muffin. That they do very well! And I appreciate that they distinguished between an English muffin or a biscuit. My main critique is that they have FOX news playing in the dining area. Setting aside that I don't prefer that news station, I don't think I'd have been any happier with a different leaning cable news show when trying to enjoy breakfast. That being said, if my main complaint was about the tv program, you can be sure the food was on point.

So this is one of those places I've always wanted to check out when I use to come to XS but never actually did. So this Saturday instead of stopping to my favorite pizza spot next door I elected to come here. The set up & service are nice but of course it's on Charles street by Mount Royal so you know the parking is horrible. After circling the block I found a spot then proceeded inside. It wasn't too crowded so I was able to walk right into getting served. This is where my one issue wit the place happened. The cashier seemed more focus on his conversation then helping me cause I asked for his chicken specials & he said nothing if the 3 wings, fries, with a half & half for $9.99. So I ended up paying $16.26 for 4 wings, fries, & an orange juice. But lesson learned I'll do a better job of observing the menu next time. But after I got over getting ripped off I must say the wings wasn't too bad could've been seasoned a little more to my liking but they were definitely nice size, & hot outta the grease. Plus they give you a nice portion of western fries with your wings so you can enjoy them together like a chicken box was meant to be done. It was self seating so once I got my food I elected to sit outdoors seeing how it was one of the last nice weather days of this year before the coldness comes. Overall it was a good experience for me this is a spot with a menu that had a lot of interesting options that makes a return trip worthwhile in the future

Surprisingly, this works very well!The chicken is a good fry, it is juicy with good flavor, and you get a nice amount of bird. The waffle is good too, with great flavor. It is more of a caky waffle instead of a crispy one, but that is okay. A crispy waffle would not work here. You need something to counteract the savory fried chicken and a sweet, cake-like waffle works here.The service is also pretty good, as they do a great job getting people in and out of the restaurant.A little gem in downtown Baltimore and happy to tried this. I would not write this restaurant off for brunch.

Got 1/2 chicken meal fried spicy crispy. Good portions for the money, the biscuit and cornbread were huge. The chicken itself was great and so was the Mac and Cheese. The potato wedges were just ok. Also got the classic deviled eggs. The filling was... just wierd, some sort of cream sauce not yolk filling like everyone I've ever had. It wasn't "bad" just not a deviled egg imo.

I enjoyed the food I ordered the wings and western fries with a side of hot honey sauce with was really good definitely will get again. It also comes with your choice of corn bread or a biscuit and I chose corn bread but it was really hard other than that I liked the food and will definitely go back. Service went smoothly got my food in like two minutes. They do have a seating area enough space for a quick lunch break.

Great place and food. They have online ordering as an option, which is simple and convenient if live locally. Plus it's a local business.

Overall: Quiet quaint fast casual restaurant that you can probably tell by the name serves chicken and eggs! They offer a decent menu and a few alcoholic beverages. The service was fast and quick.Good: I had the 3 chickens and waffles for $12.99. You can't beat that price! The rest of the menu is affordable as well! I always want to love chicken and waffles but they never live up to its promise. The waffle was nice a soft but the chicken was meh just okay. Bad: I would recommend this place for a quick bite before you have to get on the Amtrak but I don't know if it's on my try again list. Must try: the mac and cheese look BOMB though.

~ Don't know why I listened to my co-worker and tried this spot out. First off, if there's a place that's known for their rotisserie chicken, Diesel's gonna hear about it. I've been past this place over 50 times and didn't know they had rotisserie-style chickens. That was my first hint. But this was an absolute miss for me. Everything just tasted like water. Got the half chicken, mashed potatoes & Mac & cheese. Didn't know the mash potatoes had bacon in them, so I swapped out for the pinto beans. Nasty as well !! The beans were super watery. Mac & cheese had the look but failed in taste. Just plain. The chicken wasn't too bad had to eat that with sauce because both, the aji Amarillo & aji Verde sauces were disgusting! Felt like I was getting sick with each bite. We're not even gonna talk about the corn bread. The only thing that I loved about this place was the customer service. The lady was pleasant, comminuted well & attentive. If I do choose to go back, it will only be to try the fried chicken out. Hope you enjoy it. ~ #TeamDiesel4Evaaaa

Nice chicken spot, nestled right on Charles Street, where there are plenty of food options. I had their fried chicken but i plan on returning to try their rotisserie chicken. I like the side options they offer & if you prefer a more adult beverage, they offer that too. Limited seating available but it's cool that they offer it. Check 'em out... they're #MallyMallApproved
