Great food, friendly staff. BTW - Am I the only one that thinks Popeyes is the stingiest with condiments though, not just this location, in general, can we get another drop of ketchup and an extra pack of sauce without a special request? If I get three packets of ketchup for an order of fries, they all three go to waste, but hey if I get five packets, I use four and only waste one. Just saying, I’d rather have none or 5, three feels pitiful. Like I want to donate an extra 5 cents so they can afford to offer that extra pack without going out of business. Or maybe we should save them up and have like a special visit where you use all six packets, you know like on your birthday or something. Seriously though, when it’s hot, it’s good and it’s hot today!

Food came out fresh and hot! The blackened chicken sandwich meal was tasty. The cashier was friendly and the workers there seemed to really have fun and work together well. It was very clean behind the counter and you can actually watch them prepare your sandwich. I would come here again if I were in the mall shopping and wanted a quick lunch.
