Lol, looks like they mostly took a bunch of dollar-menu slop and threw the word "luau" in front of it to make it Hawaiian.

Those pancakes look awful. Shrimp looks decent enough though.

I thought the Chipotle spin-off looked far more enticing.

I don't know where you live, but if you have a dollar menu like that near you, I want to move there! :awe:

Is that bottom picture supposed to be calamari? If your calamari is easily confused with pork rinds, you've made it wrong. Really, all of that looks fairly "meh" to me, but it's Chik-Fil-A, so I suppose lowered expectations are required.

Chik-fil-uh has stated their religious beliefs will prevent them from ever opening a store here so, as far as I am concerned, they can go DIAF.

But they've progressed so much! Apparently they're okay with men wearing skirts now. As long as they're grass.

In my hometown, the only Chik-Fil-A location we had for years was in the local mall so I didn't get much exposure to the stuff.... Obviously, the chicken is good and you always crave it on Sunday when the place is closed. (I have no idea why it works that way)

In Hawaii, they always called them "Hot Cakes".... I'm not sure if they stole that from McDonald's or what.... :p



OP. Chik-Fil-A is a scam.
Why do I call it a scam? Because the secret ingredient in their chicken batter is confectioner's sugar. They basically trick your tongue, flavor explosion commences and you have no idea why you want more. It's the whole sweet & savory trick.

Looks tasty to me, but lots of restaurants do this "cuisine" and do a good enough job at it. UNless they can win on price I don't see them being able to seperate themselves from the others.

this is not hawaiian cuisine. this is about as hawaiian as "Island's Hamburgers".

Don't you live in Sacramento? If so, there is one there. :D

There are two here in the Silicon Valley area.

Chick Fil A is awesome. Their food is great. I love them. They also stand for good old fashioned morals and values, that is good. All companies should stand for values and not caving in to political correctness.

Keep up the good work Chick Fil A! :)

I've been to Chik Fil A in Georgia a couple times. I was not impressed. I will not visit again regardless of what is on the menu.
