Second crack shack we visited in a week! We went to their other location earlier in the week and had to come try this location as well! The food was amazing! Parking was a nightmare so if that's a concern either plan to park in a garage or go to the other location as they have a parking lot. Either way after finding parking, we really enjoyed the food. Good space available for the kids to run around!

This place has been on my to-go list for a while. Having finally came down here, I can confidently say that this is one of the best fried chicken spots in San Diego. Ordered Firebird, the most popular item on the menu, and it did not disappoint! Any place that picks chicken thighs as their base for the burger means REAL business. The chicken is marinated full of flavor, fried to perfectly crisp,and super tender and juicy. It is then tossed in hot sauce and served with crunchy onions and on a potato bun. The bun could see a bit more work as it is not as fluffy and light as a potato bun could be, but the thigh alone makes it a five-star burger worthy of trying out. Will absolutely come back to devour more of this juicy chicken and other menu items.

Solid food, solid price. Awesome location located just a few blocks outside of little Italy. Friendly service and a bunch of fried and grilled chicken options that will leave you satisfied!

Unbelievably good food. The fried chicken is on point; crispy, juicy tender and not greasy. The fries are incredible, a regular was large enough for three of us but we could have easily eaten a large they were so good. The anti salad was delicious with smoked chicken, quinoa, greens and a hard-boiled egg. We are definitely coming back.

Mornings can have a short line occasionally, but at brunch time and Friday night they have had a line. It's not too bad of a wait though.
