General Burnside's Canteen

I almost walked past this gem I'm gluten free so when a food cart shows pictures of fried food, it's almost automatically a no-go for me.GLUTEN FREE BUTTERMILK FRIED CHICKEN The seasonings, the sauces, the chicken. It was all perfect

The owner is amazing! He was very helpful - he had a problem with payments and he made it happen (I normally depend on Apple Pay when I walk the streets). Anyway this is of course more about the food. I ordered fried chicken plate- which came more of chicken fingers. Which I do not mind. The plate comes with fries (or in this case more like chips) a salad and two dips. Salad - well don't really expect a salad it's a bunch of shredded lettuce nothing else!The chicken for my taste was about do dry just a did overdone. It tasted great especially with the curry mayonnaise (one of the dips). But the star of that plate have been the fries - cut as chips it was clear they are home made and so delicious. It was perfect to dip in both sauces. Would I come back - yes I would not drive over but if I am close i would stop to eat there. I would take the sandwich tho to have not that excuse of a salad on the plate lol. If the sandwich doesn't come with fries I would definitely get a side of them. Maybe I would even drive for the fries tbh there have been that good. One star goes away since the chicken which is the main was slightly overdone - and again thanks to the owner great guy.

Hard to know when he is open and says he closes at 6 but was open later when I went. I like the naan wrapper for the fried chicken "sandwich". It was soft and moist not dried out. The chicken comes in small pieces fried with some good flavor. I can't comment on all the toppings as I go pretty plain. The chicken wasn't dry but since they are small pieces they also aren't juicy. I'm still in the hunt for a thick juicy fried chicken sandwich. Ping me if you have recommendations. The homemade chips were good when they were crispy but get soggy quickly if you take them to go. There are picnic tables around to sit and eat.

Super yummy yum yummy good food underrated bomb ass good food highly recommended by me

Food takes awhile so call ahead but nice guy check 'em out sometime if you like to go sandwiches

Deeeeelicious! You've got to try the GBFC sandwich! It comes with great chips- they are halfway between a fry and a chip, which was different but in a good way. Perfectly seasoned. The service was fast, I was given a free sample of the yummy chai tea, and the owner was very personable. He definitely knows how to pack a lot of amazing, complimentary flavors into the food. Will for sure be back!

Yes please! The sun, star and moon finally aligned for us t check out General Burnside's and what the heck were we waiting for?!! Is exactly what we asked ourselves after sinking or teeth into our first bite of his specialty fried chicken. What was that amazing blend of seasonings between the breading and the various dipping sauces? Each sauce when mixed with the chicken created an entirely different mouthful of amazing flavors with each bite. Sauces:The white dill sauce was really good and we're perfect with the chicken and a bite of the side pickle. The yellow sauce that at first glance looks like mustard had a curry tone to it that when mixed with the chicken was like a mini trip to the Taj. The red dipping sauce was yet another great compliment too the chicken. Chips:Next were the hand cut chips. These were delicious! I'm a sucker for potatoes but in the same breath am very picky and particular. These were fried but not drenched in oil; first plus. They were also just the right thickness so you weren't chewing for days to finish one chip. That also made them more on the crispy side which we both really like. The wife loved the ones that were thin and all crunch. They also weren't salty at all which we appreciate.After being served our dish I felt the pricing was spot on and really invited us to want to come back to try everything else (since we could definitely afford to). Last but not least the gent working the window, Tamore (spell chk), was a really nice and chill Kat. He played some great instrumental tunes that we really enjoyed while we ate and kicked it next to his pod. There is a cool little shaded area with a tree trunk, wall and chair for like 2-4 ppl. If you're in the area they're definitely worth a bite!

Very friendly and enthusiastic staff. Some covered seating. The fried tofu dish is delicious! Pad see ew is standard. Would return, plenty of vegetarian choices.

Value: 4.5 starsChicken: 4.5 stars Sides: 3.5 stars The chicken strips were great, juicy and quality meat. The breading had good flavor, a bit of spice. 4 good size strips plus hand cut chips and a "salad" for $8 is a solid deal. The thing that would keep me from coming back is the hand cut chips. They were soggy and after eating a few I just threw them away. I HATE wasting food, but it was basically inedible.
