Came here not knowing what to expect. To my surprise there was no wait and not packed as you would predict at 11am on sunday. I ordered a cinnamon waffle and chicken. The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, the best fried chicken I think I've ever had. The waffle had amazing flavor not to mention their varieties were great, fruity pebbles, chocolate chip, cinnamon you name it. This place is a hidden gem, definitely. Only catch is everything is ordered separately and can be a little pricey. Other than that I highly recommend!

Best fried chicken and waffles I’ve ever had. I chose the Dorothy’s Dandy, collard greens, and mac & cheese. As well as the tiger beverage. I was not disappointed, everything was cooked to perfection. I chose to double fry my chicken and it was delicious and moist. Would definitely recommend. The staff was personable and extremely attentive. Excellent experience.

How in tarnation have I not reviewed my beloved StreetCar?! I’m ashamed. Go here. The chicken tendies are the best in town. Collard greens are on point. Might be addicted to their pickle chips. They have like 8 different house-made sauces and they are all amazing. Everything is perfect, and it’s the only place I’ll go when I’ve got a Sweet Tea craving, Bc that sh** is NOT easy to find in San Diego.

Loved this place! The bloody AF was a meal in itself. The chicken leg was the hottest thing I've every had, but it was a good burn. My fried chicken sandwich was da bomb. Will definitely go back. Staff was delightful.

I'm definitely coming back here for more! Good portions to fill you up with good flavors. Two cocktails around $12 each, a slice of carrot cake around $10, and the two meals posted took us to $79 before tip. I'm definitely excited to try other menu items. I'm not going to lie, I was nervous about the service as I have not heard great things; however, we got our food very fast and enjoyed our late Monday night service.

Staff was great, very attentive and the place was nice and clean. We got the lemonades (my bf got the cucumber mint and added Tanqueray while I got the watermelon and added tequila) IT WAS DELICIOUS. The lemonades on their own were not too sweet. We got the super hot wings (ghost pepper seasoning). After it cleared up my sinuses, I genuinely enjoyed them. But I like spicy. They were nice and crispy with a dry rub that was very perfectly seasoned. Mac and cheese was great, too. They added some cheese on top and gave it a final toast for a little crunch on top 🙌 The main event was the chicken. While I normally don't enjoy the breading because usually every place just puts too much, these guys didn't. And they put maple on top of ours, so it gave a sweetness to the breading and softened it up. Totally coming back.

This restaurant is DELICIOUS. I ordered a Original Nashvillian Po-Boy and it was incredible. It consists of Nashville HOT Chicken, Coleslaw, Hot Peppers, hot mayo, pickles on 10" French loaf. My wife ordered the chicken fingers, a biscuit, and we shared a waffle and they were incredible. I can't wait to order that Po-Boy again! Also, they make custom milkshakes with malt and over 20 add-ins along and with an alcohol of your choice in your milkshake if you want it boozy

I love this place and I have yet to eat any of their food LOL. I was looking for a place close to home where I could get a milkshake. I was looking for a milkshake because there is medication‘s I take that caused me to get very bad sores in my mouth upon occasion and I have been having a lot of these lately. I found the milk bar and then learned that it was closed. It was a place exclusively doing milkshakes and it was taken over by the bar next-door which is a street car merchants. Although I have not done it yet, with the purchase of food you can get your milkshake spiked. I am going to have to come back when my mouth is healed to try their chicken and waffles and maybe have a little something extra added to the shake! This is one of those local pub type of places and ideally you want to walk for there is not much parking in the area and luckily for me I live only about four blocks away. I will say the shakes are a little bit pricey and yet with the flavors and the combinations they have… In my book it is worth every penny. I will definitely keep coming back!

We went here and both had the fried chicken breast and waffle. Initially the chicken looked darker than I expected but it was cooked perfectly. Moist and tender the seasoning was almost perfect, it was a little more salty than I would have liked. But still delicious. Also not strips but no bones. A really nice touch. The waffle was also cooked perfectly. I think this is one of the best chicken and waffles I have ever had. I will be going again.

Now I love a good fried chicken as much as the next guy and this place didn't disappoint. Chicken was fried to perfection. Crispy on the outside and juicy from the inside. Chicken was flavored with herbs and spices and cayenne. Waffles were great as well and so was the potato salad. But nothing can measure up to the fried chicken. Would definitely visit again.
