Well I finally got to go to Canes...

I've heard it discussed many times here and during my Christmas trip to LA I had to try it.
To be honest Canes's is way overrated, I place it far behind Zaxby's in the overpriced chicken finger category. You have more selection at Zaxby's and better quality food.
You've disappointed me Food Board!

Never been a fan. I just don't see all the hype for chicken strips and thousand island dressing no matter where it is.
FWIW, since I have an eight year old daughter who loves chicken, Capital City Grill does some really good ones for that. I've tasted hers.

I have always thought that Cane's was delicious. I can certainly understand the complaints about the increases in price and the decrease in quantity, but I still consider it great late-night food.
What does anyone really expect, it's just fried chicken fingers. To me, complaining about the taste expectations of a box of chicken is like complaining about the plot line in a physical comedy movie. I don't care if Todd Graves is the Antichrist, it's still tasty chicken.

I eat canes 3-4 times a year.
Dont see all the hate.
It's just chicken strips.

I'd rather get a whole fried chicken from Albertson's for five bucks. I'm a leg and thigh man anyway.
I used to like the Hillary Clinton. Two small breasts and a left wing.

Dont get me wrong it wasnt bad, but as highly regarded as it is here on this board I was very disappointed.

My friend manages the location on Siegen... always hot, fresh, and tasty. I am not a huge fan of their sauce though. I prefer to layer a couple chicken fingers b/w 2 pieces of their toast, pour on some Louisiana hot sauce and drizzle some honey on them and eat it like a sandwich.

I love it personally. It's not necessarily the chicken I love it is the sauce. I could eat it on anything.

I think more people on here hate Canes than love it.

It ain't like the food board has been pimping the place so I am not sure where you saw that.
As others have said, it is just chicken. I can take it or leave it, but I like to go to Canes once every couple of months. Their employees and the cleanliness of the place makes it a step up from the other garbage fast food chains near where I work.

it hasn't always been positive things written about that place

I don't see how you can overrate or underrate plain chicken strips. They don't promise much and deliver same.
The Zaxby's I've been to are absolute manna from heaven and the greatest morsels of delight I have been privledged to dine on. Of course the catch is that the are in Birmingham, Alabama, anything you get there that can be held down you gullet for 15 minutes or more is exceptional.

I don't care that much for Zaxby's, but it's the only chicken strip place we have around here. I like Cane's food better, but I do wish they had some non mayo-based alternative to that nasty Cane's sauce.

Popeye's has always been superior.

Capital city grill makes a very good chicken finger plate.
The appetizer will fill most up, but the friend finger dinner is ridiculous.
And their honey Dijon and BBQ (both homeade) are rad

Never been to Canes or Zaxby's but I went to Chik Fil-A once. Waaaay too salty.

I've heard the same from others about Zaxby's. Cane's is OK when you're having a craving for it. But I would definitely chose many other places before going there.
