Fat Daddy’s Hot Chicken & Waffles

I've been to Fat Daddy's before, the original one in Riverview some time ago. They have great fried chicken sandwiches, but I decided to go with the tenders and fries. I was the only one there at the time I placed my order and was hoping my food would be done fairly quick. The first thing that got under my skin was when I went to fill my Coke Zero at the fountain machine, there wasn't any (just water came out). I asked the employee about it and he said he was on it, but for whatever reason he couldn't solve the issue so I ended up getting a different beverage. It just seemed odd that they just opened like an hour ago and did not have their machine ready to go for the day? On top of that it took 20 minutes to get my food when all was said and done, and I was the first of many people who ended up showing up after me. I intended on dining in, but I was running out of time and needed to be somewhere. My food ended up being delicious thankfully. Just know that even if you are the only one there you're gonna end up waiting awhile. I got the impression that prep work and communication were lacking at this establishment.

The chicken and waffles at this place are so good. They have improved the waffles from last time I was here. The chicken was cooked perfect, moist and flavorful! If it was for the food alone I'd give this place a 5, maybe pick up is the way to go here.Pro-tip: get a 2nd syrup right away. The negatives: this is the 2nd visit one year later where if you spend more than 30 minutes in the establishment your eyes burn due to poor ventilation. The problem is it took 22 minutes to get our food after we ordered with only two other people in the restaurant. The ice is still in short supply. The bathroom's are missing soap and tp and dirty 20 minutes after opening which tells you that's not from today. The food is really good but I'm starting to wonder about it with some of these other issues still going on.

I paid $14 for 3 pieces of wings. They are the size of my thumb! Save your money and go elsewhere.

The storefront doesn't do this place justice! I was planning to have lunch next door but found a very long line waiting for me. Thankfully we saw this spot and changed course!I had the suga momma. Heat level: hot. Really fantastic flavor and just the right spice level. It's supposed to come with pickles but they were absent, thats really my only gripe. The fries were quality too. Friendly staff and delicious chicken all cooked fresh to order. Overall I'm very pleased with this spot.

Truly love this chicken sandwiches! Perfect levels of spice and crispiness. Service is always super quick and friendly. Portions are huge so I usually get the double up which is 2 smaller sandwiches so I make 2 meals out of them. I've also gotten the chicken and waffles and really love their waffles! Simplicity at its best. Their desserts are also pretty good, especially the banana pudding!Ordering online and picking up is always super seamless!

Stopped here because we got a flat on the famous Michigan potholes, and the closest tire shop was nearby. Tenders were small, we ordered "hot" which we were told meant medium, but still pretty spicy so just an fyi on heat level. Mac and cheese was pretty good too.

Big and super juicy sandwich! Greatly season and the chicken was pretty big! I was so impressed. The inside feels a bit mucky because of the grease so I recommend getting takeout but great spot! Great chicken! Great fries

Ann Arbor desperately needed a good fried chicken place, so I was overjoyed when I discovered Fat Daddy's newer location here. The food did not disappoint - everything was incredible and the portion sizes were substantial. We ate fries for days afterwards.They still have some hiccups -- the place was short staffed the day we picked up food and the wait we experienced was pretty crazy. It's a testament to how stellar the food was that we'd gladly face another hour+ wait for their fried chicken (though I really, really hope we don't have to).

Stopped by to check out the place. Went with the 2 tender - got it hot, it came with fries, pickles and peppers. I also ordered the side of coleslaw, mac-n-cheese and a fountain drink.I would definitely recommend their tenders - four stars because of the tenders!! Juicy and moist, hot was the perfect spice level. It had kick to it, but not to the point of burning your taste bud. When the spice kicked in, had some coleslaw to tame the spice down. Now, the coleslaw wasn't anything to write home about. It was under seasoned - could have used some extra mayo, salt, sugar and vinegar. It's one of those things to try on your first visit, but definitely not a regular thing to order. The mac-n-cheese was decent, but honestly had better. Fries were excellent. You can use the self order kiosk, order using the app or with the staff. The one drawback to dining here - you walk out smelling like grease. This would indicate their ventilation/hood is not working properly. I had to fabreze my jacket after getting home.

Chicken is fire.. literally. I had hot chicken tenders & waffles, so good! If you ain't sneezing it ain't seasoned! Mac & cheese was tasty, had a little kick too. The only disappointment, if you dine in, they give you the cheapest most worthless disposable utensils to eat with which didn't cut or pick up my waffles. UGh
