Papi Chicken was amazing. The food was incredible I ordered the extra hot on combo 2, and it was super hot, but in the best way. It had that same mouth-burning feeling you get after eating Hot Cheetos: intense, but so good it makes you want more.
The person who took my order was extremely kind and welcoming. They even let me know that if the food ended up being too hot, they would change it for me, which is awesome because not many places are willing to do that.
Overall, the food was a 20/10 for me. It was better than both Raising Cane’s , and the portions were larger for the price. I’ll definitely be coming back.
