I am in love with the crunch and flavor of the chicken it came piping hot and juicy in a tin foil pan it seemed like I got it from my grandma house but it was perfect. The 12 pieces of chicken were not huge but just right. The Mac and cheese was missing pepper but was better than box. The fried okra absolutely top tier I could eat them all. The fried apple was ok as a little not overly sweet dessert. I would definitely order all these again.

Chicken thighs: 8/10 (juicy perfectly cooked)
Mac and cheese: 7/10 (subtle not overly flavorful)
Corn Pudding: 7/10 (never had it, would order again)
Fried balls: 7/10 (really good with honey, would prefer biscuit instead)
Breading: 5/10 if it didn't have so much raisins and fruit I'd give it 9/10 that's just my preference it's still delicious.
Summary
I only got 3 pcs when I ordered 4pcs. I got a refund for the missing one but I'm just gonna take it as Jesus saying I don't need it and not be mad lol.
the flavors are simple and subtle. Mac and cheese would do good with Cajun spice. this place would be good for someone who doesn't like super seasoned/salty foods.

I have never been disappointed with my chicken from pollards. It's always fresh, hot, flavorful and juicy. The sides are just basic and not that great, but the fried chicken and gizzards are delicious. Oh and the puffs are always great.
