"Wingstop hooked me UP tonight. Extra chicken, fresh crunchy fries, extra ketchup and ranch. I got the lemon pepper wings and the garlic parm wings, flavor was on point. One of my favorite places to eat. 🖤 Thanks y'all!"
"Delightful! The best chicken ive ever had by far! The 4 Crispy Tenders were just as described CRISPY! I tried 3 flavors - lemon pepper packed a punch of flavor, a bit salty for those who are sensitive - garlic Parmesan were classic and good, kind of unassuming tho - lastly, hot honey was very good, def had some heat to them but worth it! 15 Wings were boneless. They chose Original Hot which have by far been th best Buffalo style chicken they have had 8/10. And tried the mango habanero, flavor 10/10 scrumptious but were spiciest out of all our choices. The Cajun Fried Corn were a perfect side! Yummy tender corn on the cob in an easy to eat fashion. We had the Cajun extra seasoning and it didn't miss a beat! Lastly we had Seasoned Fries which unfortunately fell last on our favorite just because everything else shined so bright but by the time it was delivered they were soggy and cold. If they had been fresh, they would've been better nice homemade style fries! And of course with all of this we had a side of Cheese Sauce and tons of Ranch which added to the deliciousness of everything! I dipped every bite. "

"Spinach salad with chicken was delicious as always. My go-to salad at Palmer's."
"My company has used this establishment to cater events. Thought I was in good hands but ...good portion of the greens were wilted & brown and no cucumber & maybe too much cheese. Had there been cucumber, it probably would've balanced the cheese. The 2 tomatoes could not resuscitate this freshness if this salad. Wildly disappointing."

"This time I tried the Hot Beef...and I can see why it is number one! I felt their portions were generously large and the food satisfies that comfort food craving. I also have ordered the Pistachio Cold Brew coffee twice, if you like nutty flavors- I definitely recommend trying!"
"First time eating from here. I was a little worried about if the food would be hot still when it arrived because we are much further out from them but both meals were perfect! My son has sensory issues and I was worried about him trying something new. I got the Chicken & Rice for him thinking it looked similar to our chicken & rice casserole I make at home and he loved it! It was a huge portion too! It's always a relief when I can find him something on the menu other than deep fried chicken nuggets, so thank you!!! I got the Hot Beef and it was the best I've had in a long time! It's so hard to find hot beef sandwiches let alone made well! Definitely a 10/10 from this family! We will order again and have to dine in soon too!"

"Hashbrowns were like half the normal size they used to be, they were greasy to the point of it pooling in the container and dripping when I lifted up a fork full of hashbrowns. Then they didn't include my drink, which was over $6. Thats insane for a glass of juice to start with let alone for one that doesn't even get poured."

"I tried this for the first time at their location on Oct 5th. I have had this for dinner 3 night in a row. Seasoning is on point. The cook on the chicken is fantastic. Their take on slaw may be my favorite yet. Awesome portions of food. Having honey and hot honey as condiments is awesome I could eat it on anything. Will be my go to spot for awhile."
"The Dave's #2: 2 Sliders w/ Fries sliders had large pieces of chicken one slider is more than enough. I went with medium heat but will do hot next time it did not have much if any heat that I could taste. The slaw goes well with the sliders. I prefer my crinkle cut fries more crispy than how they prepare theirs. Overall the food was good and I would order again."

"Hands down the BEST benedict I have ever eaten! The Florentine was superb and tasted so fresh even though I had it Door Dashed. The piece of HomeGrown Coffeecake pictured is only about 1/3 of the whole piece of cake. It is HUGE!!"
"The kids meal was good sized but comes with no sides. The pancake itself was very bland. My biscuit was maybe a biscuit and a half? Tiny for $16... I had enough gravy for three biscuits, so that's a plus. Everything is lacking salt. The gravy is peppery and good, but again, lacking salt. The biscuits were dry, though the flavor is good. Grits were cheesy but again, lacked salt. The only thing that had plenty of salt was the potatoes. Eggs were standard. The side of bacon was $7 for three pieces of bacon. Latte was great and the little liked her chocolate milk. I always like dining here but I wont order take out again. Overpriced. And everything needs a little more flavor to really arise to the occasion."
