Very good spot. Menu is limited to mostly chicken salad, but it works. Except that to me chicken salad requires toast & they don’t toast! I have tried multiple chicken salads which were all good. Grape salad was also a pleasant surprise.

Visited here several times since I work in a nearby building. At first I thought it would be one of my weekly stops for lunch. But, it turned out not to be the case. In my opinion, you don’t get much for the price. I usually get the Gourmet Chick with a scoop of chicken salad. I don’t like the sandwich. As someone said earlier, the bread takes away from the taste. I do like their broccoli salad. Their fruit is mediocre. It’s mainly grapes with a few blueberries and half of one strawberry sliced. They give you a cookie with every meal. I have a sweet tooth but I am not a fan of their cookies. Have had much better elsewhere. I like the decoration in this restaurant. It’s upbeat with a southern flare. The staff have always been pleasant and one even remembers my name.

The chicken salad is really good. This location is frequently out of something — tomato… lettuce…some type of bread… very frustrating. I don’t recommend this location.

If you’re 90 years old with no teeth, you’ll be heaven! Okay, the office decided to try this place and placed an order to go. Once at the office we found that the order was wrong, but it was too much trouble to go get it fixed, so we decided to just eat it. The macadamia nuts tasted like dirt. Literally. It was also the only texture at all. I have actually had mashed potatoes with more texture. Maybe in addition the wrong order, they forgot to put chicken in it. Next time I’ll just bring Costco’s cape cod chicken salad from home. It is far better and contains actual pieces of chicken.(I recommend it on their croissants) We will not go back.

The chicken salad is tasty, but their bread is «blah» and they don’t have the ability to toast. In my opinion, if you’re a sandwich shop, you ought to be able to toast bread upon request. I have eaten here 4 times. 3 of the 4 I received great customer service. They have a variety of chicken salads to choose from(check out their menu) & I recommend purchasing them as a scoop, as the bread really takes away from the tastiness of their chicken. As a side note, this would be a great place to go for those of you that don’t eat gluten IF something came with the scoops other than club crackers.

not sure if it was because it came in as part of a boxed lunch for an event my team was catering but somehow the bread was so dry & the pimento cheese was like a massive lump that I thought ok let me try to eat it like pub cheese w/crackers. The cracker stuck out of the pimento cheese like a flag to stake a claim. The dressing on the pasta salad was overwhelming. The salad was supposed to exclude the banana peppers & it was if it went the opposite direction as extra peppers. I wanted to love it given it is just down from my office in Founder’s Hall & it seems pricey for what it is so wanted to see if the flavors justified the price. Unfortunately, this particular experience doesn’t inspire me to order again for catering nor add it to my list of go to lunch spots.

if you could give half stars, guess I’d go 2.5 stars, but not 3, yes I’ve experienced better, but it’snot really«A-OK» either. This was my first time, I walk past it 2 or 3 times a week and decided to try something different today… I had the Cajun Roast Beef … to me «Cajun» implicates some sort of spices … there was Roast Beef, not much but no spices to call this«Cajun» … so in a nutshell the sandwich: — Very Little Meat — Very Little in the condiments(Lettuce Tomato Mayo Mustard) — A slice of Provolone Cheese — The sourdough bread it comes on was dry and didn’t taste much like«good» sourdough bread Came with a side … I chose the Pasta Salad, what little there was of it, the little slot in the box where the pasta salad went was maybe half full(being optimistic here), and as pasta salads go … i’d give it maybe a 2, probably a 1.5… Also a cookie … that was by far the best part of the meal … and of course the dill pickle slice. Wasn’t the worst food I’ve ever had in a fast food, food court but by far not the best either. On the bright side, some of the staff was friendly and professional, the rest were just kind of hanging out… Probably will by-pass it as i did before trying it, just not any bang for your buck… too expensive for too little…

Love this place! The chicken salads are delicious and first timers are able to try before you buy. I always get the trio meal and try new flavored each time.

Lots of choices for a lunch during work! Chicken salad on a sandwich, bread or just as a scoop. It also comes with one or two sides(a few dollars difference) plus a pickle and cookie. Nice touch to come with those extras compared to other locations in Overstreet Mall. The food itself is good quality for the price. I typically get the one scoop and one side meal and come in just under $ 10. Not a bad price for uptown lunch. They also have a nice dining room that looks to be rather large in the back and let’s in a fair amount of sunlight. The location is very central just next to the Starbucks. They also do a good job of line control with TSA style ropes to keep everyone lined up. All in all not a bad place. I will definitely be a continued customer!

This was one of the best chicken salad sandwiches I’ve had EVER! The wheat bread was moist and soft, the chicken salad was the right balance is sweet and savory. I could total eaten another half sandwich with joyful bliss. The service was great too. I guess the guy at te counter could tell I was a true southerner and as I looked at the menu he pointed to the Olivia. Thank goodness for him b/c it was Great! I hope my mom doesn’t read this

Typically I reserve judgement for a 1 star review for multiple factors. Food taste /quality. Service. Ambiance. This one hit it all. Ambiance is nothing special, nor should it be. It’s in the overstreet mall for a quick bite to eat. Ok whatever, no big deal. Service. They lost my order multiple multiple times. Granted this was within the first 2 weeks of opening, but they had probably ¼ of the line of Chick-Fil-A. I was told multiple times, they will get my order immediately, to have my order ignored again. Got my food after 30 mins of waiting. Food. I tried a sample of the chicken salad before ordering. It was the ‘classic’ and it was not very good at all. I’m not the biggest chicken salad fan, but it did not taste premium at all, it was a little bland. Ok fine, no problem, order something else. I order the roast beef sandwich. ITISLITERALLYTWOPIECESOFBREADAND A FEWSLICESOFROASTBEEF. Wtf? Seriously I just paid $ 8 for this? Can I get some lettuce? Tomato? Horseradish? Anything else? Was clearly not very good because it was just roast beef and bread. How inventive!!! Avoid IMO.

What a fabulous idea. From pa visiting nc and. stubbled across the only #chickensaladchick in the state. Very tasty I wish the line wouldnt have moved so fast to figure out which salad to try.

I’m not really a fan of chicken salad, but came along with a group that was. They have a few sandwiches for those who do not like chicken salad, but I decided to give their namesake a shot and was pleasantly surprised. I had the buffalo chicken salad on a croissant. Pretty good, but not as spicy as I was wishing for. I’ll try the one with jalapeños next time. There are a few bread options for the sandwich and some classic sides to choose from. Their pasta salad and broccoli salad are my favorite. The combo also comes with a cookie; pretty good deal for right around $ 8. It is a pretty large space by Overstreet standards. Plenty of seating — booths, tables, bar seating against the window. Looks like they will be sticking around for a while with the line they draw during the lunch hours.

OK. I admit it. I am addicted to Chicken Salad Chick. All the evidence you need is yesterday when I had it for lunch and then stopped by just before they closed for a pound each of Olivia’s Old South and Jazzy Julie to take home for dinner. This next part is going to sound funny given the paragraph above but, I’ll try to explain. This is not the best chicken salad I’ve ever had and, I can make a much better version at home. Here’s why, despite this, I’m addicted: 1. I love variety in most things in life but particularly when it comes to food and CSC has 15 different versions. 2. I went to their nutrition page after my first visit convinced I would find out I just ate 1000 calories of mayonnaise laden lunch. NOT the case at all. In fact, I can get two scoops of chicken salad and fresh fruit on the side for just under 400 calories. That is way under my normal, OMG I didn’t eat breakfast and am so hungry by 11:30 that I go grab some big calorie sub sandwich, Uptown lunch and, I still find it very satisfying. So why not 5 stars? They gotta get the«fresh» back in the fresh fruit side item. It’s too hit or miss, particularly the strawberries which are oftentimes mushy.

Wandered through here by curiosity and was pleasantly surprised with everything! Luckily for me, I didn’t have to wait long the two times I’ve been here. During lunch rush it can get really busy. Service was helpful and great. I ordered their Dixie chick chicken salad, I believe. I can say it was a really tasty sandwich! It came with your choice of side and a cookie! I’d love to order the rest of their other options, but I’m hooked on the Dixie chicken salad! Can’t wait to come back again here soon!

I finally got to try this place out because finally there was no line. The newest offering in Overstreet Mall stays true to it’s name specializing in Chicken Salad. I forgot to count how many different ways they can make their chicken salad but I went with the Southern version(with egg and pickle). It allowed me to taste their base chicken salad with just a little addition to it. Sadly I was not really blown away. They have one thing they specialize in and in my opinion is there are two places right near by that do their staple better. But, to each their own and I do recommend at least giving it a try. You might have different tastes. It wasn’t bad or anything and the staff was super friendly. Plus, there are a lot of different ways for you to try their chicken salad. However, with lunch being near $ 10 and feeling underwhlemed, I will personally probably pass next time.

I make a seriously god chicken salad so was hesitant to go here. It was heavily staffed with yellow shirted people and, being brand new, very clean and well appointed. The problem is, and I have written this before in other reviews, if your name says what you do(serve) then that thing better be GOOOOOD! The chicken salad I got was okay. Nothing more, nothing less. In fact, it had a consistency of unwarmed chicken dip. I felt like ti would have been better microwaved in a bowl and served with chips. The bread was sourdough but toasting was mentioned as an option. The pickle was outstanding and the fresh cookie hit the spot afterwards, but the chicken salad, meh. I do not feel the need to go back. I am glad that folks like it and that it’s another interesting adoption in the uptown area.

This place has been open in Overstreet Mall for a few weeks. The line has been consistently long, and today I decided the take a late lunch and wait for the line to dissipate. Boy, I’m glad that I did. If you like chicken salad, this is your place. If you like big portions, look no further. I tried the Kickin’ Kay Lynne on a croissant which had buffalo sauce, ranch, bacon, shredded cheddar cheese & jalapenos in it. Moist, and loaded with delicious flavor. I got the grape salad and broccoli salad to accompany my sandwich. Both I would give hard 5/5s for. The broccoli salad was probably one of the best I’ve ever had from a restaurant; the broccoli wasn’t too raw, nor was it too cooked either. PERFECTION. But wait, you want more? All this food and you still get a pickle and a cookie. Seriously … a sandwhich, two sides, a pickle & a cookie for $ 8.50. Stop reading now and go get in line!

Got to try this place out during a banking holiday so the lunch rush that I usually expect from the overstreet mall was a slow crawl(great for me) but it also gave me time to look at the menu and also get a ton of help from the very nice cashier manning her register. I just went with the original chick sandwich– you choose the kind of chicken salad… There are a ton of choices… Whether or not you want lettuce and tomato and the type of bread. Got my drink and sat down… The sandwich was out right away. I was pleasantly surprised by the cookie and pickle included. For my side, I went with fruit and its a generous cup of grapes, blueberries, and strawberries which was a refreshing way to end my meal. The dining space is very nice(brand new!) with a comforting light green wall color. I like the contrast of the white, black, and red motif they have going on. The restaurants story is super interesting but it’s good how they ended up in this space in uptown. The employees came by to check on me and offered to take my tray away. The dining room is keep very clean and orderly. Super simple, clean approach that I could appreciate. I guess the true test will be handling the real lunch crowd that can get a bit out of hand sometimes if you don’t hit the mall at the right time. Oh! Almost forgot: the dining room looks out to a plaza behind the BoA plaza which is nice considering that most overstreet mall restaurants have no windows whatsoever.
