Foosackly’s

Now that I’ve had Foosackly’s, my Mobile, AL area tour de chicken finger is complete. I held off on Foosackly’s because the name seemed a little nonsense-​ical and goofy… I could picture my young niece introducing me to her imaginary friend Foosackly. But I’m glad I finally got around to trying it because it’s my favorite.
PDQ, Zaxby’s… they’re alright. Raising Cane’s is really good. But Foosackly’s is great. If you only do one thing… a chicken finger… you need to do it really really well and Foosackly’s does it really really well. The chicken fingers are fried with a seasoned batter that feels very light on the tongue and in the stomach. They are served with your choice of several dipping sauces and the crinkle cut fries that are a staple of the southern chicken finger plate. A piece of texas toast and side of coleslaw accompany most of the selections. The foo snacks come in 2 or 3 piece sizes, foo box comes with 5 pieces and the bigger box comes with 7. There’s a foo sack with 20 pieces… I imagine that’s a hit for football game Saturday’s around these parts. Foosackly’s also caters… we’ve had them in the office for lunch meetings in the past.
Of course now that I frequent Foosackly’s… frequently… I had to look into the name. From what I can tell the owner/​founder of the company was a guy with the last name of Fusiaotti so the name may be a play on his last name. Foos… Fus… Don’t know for sure. What I do know is this is some kickin’ chicken!

Chicken strips were pretty good but nothing really stood out about them in my opinion. Service was great! Fries were average

Good food!

Soooo while visiting the area we saw the favorable reviews on this fast food spot and decided to try it out. People had mentioned how they thought it tasted better than Raising Canes. Really? Quite a bold claim to make I think.
We weren’t very hungry so we decided to split the «Bigger Box» which has 7 pcs, fries, Texas toast, slaw, and choice of sauce. Definitely points for the price, $ 6.79. I thought that was very good.
Now to say better than Canes, let’s stop the madness people! Yeah we got it hot and fresh but that’s where it ends. The chicken was blah, just ok. Not at all a stand out. The fries were crinkle cut medium thick and I like that but I also like some salt or something. I don’t eat coleslaw but my friend tried it and said it had a vinegary taste as did the ‘zoo’ sauce that was suggested by an employee as the most popular. Maybe vinegar is their thing in that area of the country.
Everyone’s got their hometown favs. I get it.

I like checking out small, local fast food chains, and this Mobile-​area chicken strip chain definitely fits that. Ordered the chicken fingers, toast and fries with the foosackly’s sauce. I did prefer this over Zaxby’s, and the prices are a little better. However, I think the Jack’s we went to was a little better overall, and I would have preferred non-​crinkle cut fries. Only reason I’m going 4 stars instead of 5. Good lunch stop in the Mobile area.

Great food and service! Always quick and tasty!

Excellent chicken fingers! I usually get the Box in the drive thru. Great meal for when you are on the run.
Inside they have great lemonade that I like to mix with tea to make my own Arnold Palmer.

This place has the best chicken fingers I’ve ever have. Way better then Raisin Canes and Chick-​fil-​A. My wife and i would always stop by here when in town to get there chicken finger salads. There ranch and honey mustard sauce are the best I’ve had. Not sure if they order them from somewhere or make them themselves but only if i can buy a bottle or two of each to take home. Also another note the place usually gets packed out. So except a wait if its busy

Absolutely the best chicken fingers I’ve ever eaten! I hadn’t been a fan of chicken fingers before eating at this location because the crust/​breasting is usually tough or the chicken may be dry on the ends. This chicken, however, won me over.
I love the breading! The chicken was also very tender! I even ate the toast which was a surprisingly welcomed addition to my plate. Give it a try if you visit (or live in) Mobile or have a Foosackly’s near you.

Best chicken fingers around, great customer service, locally owned. Can’t ask for much more.

Best chicken fingers in the world! Love all their sauces! If only the traffic wasn’t so bad at this location! But worth it!!!

When people ask what to do in Mobile, Foosackly’s is top of the list. I’ve eaten in all 50 states, nothing comes close to touching my foo craving. Here’s what you do: bigger box buff style, foo and honey mustard on the side. Seriously if this isn’t the best chicken you’ve tasted something is wrong in your life. Also works wonders on hangovers. The only setback is you will be addicted from first bite.

There is no chicken in the world like Foosackly’s…if you haven’t been here then you need to go immediately! It’s always delicious and super cheap! Foo sauce is like heaven on earth… yum!

This place is VERY GOOD. It reminded me of Zaxby’s but cheaper and not quite as corporate.
They have the fun ice — or slush ice too. The service here is of course first class and the sweet tea is AWESOME.
If I get back to Mobile, I’ll certainly stop here again.

Better than Cane’s. the chicken is lightly breaded and the toast is delicious. I’m impressed. The music is fun in here too.

This place is awesome! Very clean and the service is excellent! The prices are very reasonable. Fingers are tasty and aren’t as greasy as other chicken finger places. I enjoyed the Kung Foo Sauce; a bit of a spicy sweet and sour sauce. My opinion: better than Guthries and Zaxby’s.

First experience of the «foo» and we thought it was great! My picky eater devoured the chicken. This location was clean and the staff was friendly. We will be back.

And I thought Cane’s was good… this place was awesome. Very friendly service, but most importantly, delicious food. Seasoning/​breading on the chicken, fries and sauce I’d have to say were better than Cane’s, as well as the sweet tea, but I prefer the Cane’s toast over Foo’s (not to say it wasn’t good, because it was.) This place makes me wish I lived in the Mobile area. I’m looking forward to the next time I’m in Mobile so that I can go to Foosackly’s!

So… the fingers weren’t bad but they were tiny and oddly shaped. I’m sorry but shouldn’t my food look like what you say it IS? And the toast was not great either. Just didn’t love it.
To top all of it off… the bathroom wasn’t clean. I need a clean restroom folks!
This place is definitely a joint and sometimes that’s cool. I would just say you probably shouldn’t expect too much.

Foosackly’s is one of those new chicken tender places that’s popping up all over the South. I took my niece there when I was visiting Mobile. The price was right and the tenders were actually very tasty. I am debating between Foosackly and Raising Cane as my favorite spots.
