Krispies’fried Chicken

I wish I liked this place more because it’s one of the few places in walking distance from me. It’s okay but I don’t usually feel like I got my money’s worth. I like the crab cake the best. The couple that owns it are pretty nice.

I love little family-​owned places like this. Got some takeout here and will definitely be back. One of the things I judge places like this on are chicken tenders. I didn’t want a huge order so I tried some nuggets instead. This chicken was seasoned. Lots of salt and black pepper, good breading, fried fresh for you. Bone-​in chicken was lovely too. Wedges were precooked in a hot plate along with bone-​in wings for people wanting a quick fix. These weren’t as fresh as they could be, but they were batter dipped and seasoned well. Sides were a little disappointing (Potato and Macaroni salads, hush puppies, cole slaw, wedges), but reasonably priced. Included bread was just generic rolls, but they were fresh at least.
I would come back here again and definitely try the tenders.
The neighborhood is really sketchy, though, so make sure you lock your car. The front of the business is glass so if you are parked in the like 6 spots out front you should be able to see your car. I remember a woman trying to take the squirt bottle of ketchup out to her car to put it in her container and the owner rebuffing that attempt as she was walking out. I wouldn’t be worried about her stealing it, more of what she could add to the ketchup. Eww.

The short and dirty: Cheap. Hot. Made to Order. Quick. Crunchy. Well seasoned. Chicken.
The Cons: There’s nowhere to sit. The parking lot is small and oddly positioned. It’s in a pretty crappy part of town. No other businesses are open in that area.
The Pros: If you’re looking for good quick cheap chicken it’s worth it. $ 8 can feed a family.
Notes: Definitely ask for the signature mambo sauce!!! It’s behind the counter.

Krispies is in the Williamsburg Rd/​Government Rd area of Henrico. A simple take-​out chicken restaurant they also do large chicken orders for parties, catering etc. whenever in the area I make all attempts to stop here. My friend enjoys the gizzards (not for me though). I enjoy the wings and the pink lemonade is delicious. Not in the best area of Richmond, lots of people walking around this area. Just be aware of your surroundings, I’ve never had any issues. Prices are great for budget conscious customers.

I occasionally stop by Krispies if I’m in the area. Krispies has some good fried chicken. I usually get the chicken wings and French fries. There’s other fried food on the menu. The food at Krispies is reasonably priced. The service is average. If you’re looking for a cheap and quick chicken meal, Krispies is a solid choice. I give Krispies Fried Chicken a 3.5 rating.

No ones tries this place, really? It’s super cheap and fried foods. For next to nothing you get a box of fried things. Doesn’t really matter what you get it’s all crunchy. If you don’t expect gourmet food. Accept it for what is, you won’t be disappointed.
