I don't go around sampling and comparing chicken fingers but I luv me some Raising Canes.

I eaten there from time-to-time over a decade and haven't noticed any drop-off in quality.

Bonus: awesome sweet tea which I always top-off before I egress.

I have had them and was not much impressed.

Not fast food, but the tenders at Piccadilly's are really good.

Popeyes spicy strips are very hard to beat for fast food and the plain jane golden krinkle fries at canes suck. They need a seasoned fry alternative.

Service, speed, quality, taste...

I'm kind of with you. I don't much care for chicken fingers, so I don't go to canes all that much. They do receive alot of praise though. Pretty sure there was an article in the business report about it the other day, they received some awards.

They're not bad, but hell I'd take Chick Fila fingers over Cane's every time.

It’s hard to beat Canes’ chicken fingers.

No other fast food place comes close.

I don’t eat chicken fingers real often but cane’s > Popeyes. Cane’s fingers have always been consistently tasty with good contrast between the crunchy batter and juicy chicken. Popeyes’ have generally tasted like they have been sitting out for a while, batter is soggy, chicken is dry

Without the sauce it is just a chicken tender.

It does not hold up head to head with Popeyes chicken tenders without dipping sauce.

Everytime Canes tenders are reviewd, the sauce is in the review. Are they reviewing the tenders or the dipping sauce?

I’m eating at different Popeyes than y’all evidently. I don’t know that I have ever gotten a Popeyes tender that wasn’t dry and hard as crap.

Canes is pretty solid, imo. However, it is very hard to beat a chick fil a tender. Throw in the chick fil a sauce, and I’m picking it over canes fingers and sauce.
