I know there are a few around KC, but I've never been to one. It looks a lot like Slim Chickens, which is decent for what it is. Has anyone been to both that can compare the two?

They are about even. SC has a few more options (wings, sauces, wraps). Neither of them are bad by any stretch of the imagination.

I'd go to SC or Canes for chicken strips, but still go to Chik-Fil-A for the spicy chicken sandwich.

I like chick fil a better and their menu has more options than Cane’s. Canes is fine but nothing special.

The prices are outrageous. Strips are great....but there other strips.
I wouldn't call any fast food price "outrageous."

Sure maybe a Shake Shack in a city, but 6-7 bucks for a combo anywhere is about average now.

Went to this place a few weeks ago. It was so very average. I mean it was chicken strips and if you wanted a sandwich it was Chicken Strips on a bun. Only one sauce. I mean it was not bad or anything. Just really nothing more than normal chicken strips.

Went to a restaurant specializing in chicken strips and was disappointed to find chicken strips.

I mean they are quite literally a chicken strip restaurant. The name of the restaurant is Raising Cane's Chicken Fingers, it says it right on the sign.

His daughter did not tell him the full name. She stopped at the chicken part, thus leading to full dissatisfaction.

Once again. My daughter ask me to go. I didn't investigate the place. She said it's a chicken place. I was expecting Chick fil A type stuff. Not just chicken fingers. I am not even sure why anyone would take a family to the place when they have a chick fil A about a block away which has way more options. The reason I went to it was because she wanted to try it. We both agreed that it was very average. It was normal chicken strips you can get anywhere. They had one sauce (That was not on the sign you speak of). I would say go somewhere else. The place is not worth it.

Why would anyone go to McDonalds on Duff, when there is Wendys, BBops, and soon to be 5 Guys?
