Is Chick-Fila's chicken sandwich the best fast food chicken sandwich around?

Is there one better? I am talking the chicken itself, I have not found a better chicken.

what's even more amazing is that all their employees are always happy and cheerful- must be something in the chicken

It's the best chicken sandwich I have come across.

Good taste, nice cut of chicken, always fresh and juicy.

I tried McDonald's copy of it and the piece of chicken was half the size and came on a soggy regular hamburger bun.

I wish we had it around here, it's like the in-n-out of chicken sandwiches.

Every time i go in there its full of catholic school teams (busloads of kids from catholic schools) and playing "christian music". The food isnt half bad but its expensive compared to its competitors. I dont see all the hype.

Then why the heck do you keep going there?

I actually like Carls Jr's Bacon Swiss Crispy Chicken Sandwich better.

The only chicken-themed restaurant that I like more is Zaxby's, which to my knowledge hasn't yet left the state of Georgia. Then again, Zaxby's takes a bit longer to get your food out; it's a cross between fast food and something like Panera in terms of speed. Their "zalads" are the best, though, bar none.

We have one in Arkansas and it does indeed kickass, I love the chicken club sandwich and the Zaxby's sauce owns.

What did they do when you notified them?

Not by a long shot. Wendy's homestyle and spicy chicken sandwiches are much better and cheaper to boot.

I've only been there once during my college orientation. It wasn't bad, definitely better than the other fast food chain chicken sandwiches.

Although, I have yet to meet a chicken sandwich that comes close to Polo Tropical. $6 gets you a grilled half chicken with black beans and rice.

I thought it was just us. I don't eat there, but I go with friends who go there. So much different than the other employees of fast food chains.
