Chicken fried steak was ok, coleslaw was not to my liking, cherry cobbler was good. I'll go back, I'd like to try the chicken and livers & gizzards.

We had wanted to try this place for a while but it never worked out. They are only open Friday-Sunday. The stars aligned and Sunday was the day we got to try it. The chicken was great! Seriously, it was so good! The sides were fine but the chicken was the star. (I had to order the side of spaghetti because I can't recall ever seeing it as a side at a chicken joint.) Everyone was very nice too!

Fantastic "home-cooked" chicken, catfish (Fridays) & onion rings! Small-town country food! Mmm, mmmm

For those who remember the original Chicken Shack, this is very similar, but is now called the Chicken Shak. I grew up with the Shack so I was excited to see that the new owner decided to bring it back and what differences there would be, if any. I will admit that the food was still good, but not quite as I remember. The German potato salad was a bit on the vinegar-y side, but I am also not a huge fan of many things vinegar. However, the mashed potatoes and gravy were spot on as well as the baked beans. The onion rings were smaller cuts with a lighter batter, but were still decent. As for the chicken, I really enjoyed the wishbone especially when dipped in the gravy, but my wife did not have the same experience. I can't recall what piece of chicken she had, but she was disappointed by the amount of grease coming from the piece of white meat. It was actually dripping down her hands. It still felt like the good ol' times and the joys of small town life. It was great seeing all of the familiar faces and the conversations had by those just walking by our table to chat. I'm glad we were able to visit.

The chicken brought back childhood memories of living a short distance from the best fried chicken in America. Absolutely worth stopping! German potato salad could have been a little more soft, but the flavor perfect. Only downside is no credit/debit cards; cash only

I cannot remember who told me about the "Chicken Shak", but they said they have some "good chicken". I needed to get some training miles for a gravel bike race that coming up so was the 68 mile round trip on my bike worth it? Yes! Very tasty seasoning on this fried chicken. Friendly staff and quick service. My only suggestions would be background music and real butter.

Just stopped here for some food on our way back to Kansas City and I'm glad we did. We arrived just a few minutes before closing (not knowing their hours) and asked them if they were still cooking. They said they were, so we ordered two meals and desserts to go (because of COVID-19). Sat in our car and devoured everything. It was a pleasant surprise since we didn't expect much being that we were in the middle of nowhere. The service was nice and quick and the food was some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. If we're down this way again, we'll definitely make another stop.

Good place to get a plate of fresh chicken. The cole slaw and potato salad is good the slaw has a tinge of horseradish quality and is a sweet slaw. The potato salad is a German style . Worth a stop if it is meal time and you are in this area. service is exemplary and great conversation also. Pretty much a local patronage so very homey
