Chicken Joe's

I love chicken joe's!!!!!!! This place is right across from my best friend's home in Cos cob, though I know Chicken Joe's has a couple of other locations in Connecticut, too. They sell a lot of sandwiches, wraps, etc. but the best and most popular are the fried chicken nuggets (REAL chicken, not pink slime) with fries or cones. I usually get the baby (1/4 pound chicken with cones or fries), but most of my friends get the high school special (1/2 pound chicken with cones or fries). We get "The Godfather" (1 pound of chicken with cones or fries) when we want to share with each other.

The cones are like a small ball of fried mashed potatoes, and they're DELICIOUS!! I always ask for extra of their "special seasoning" spice to dip the chicken into. It's a little sweet, a little spicy, and tastes a bit like Old Bay with some other spices I can't put my finger on...

Fried chicken nuggets with fries sounds simple, and it is, but it's SO GOOD here!!!

This particular location for what used to be Garden Catering has been my favorite since I was in elementary school across the street.  Now a days, I get two God Father specials which ends up feeding my whole family!

Ultimately, you have Chicken and fries in a bag!  If you're a potato lover, sub in cones instead of fries and you'll have an even more awesome dinner!  If you dont wanna take the risk, get half cones and half fries!

The food is always fresh and comes out in the perfect state.  Never soggy.  Ever.  (unless of course you're forced, and i mean forced... to eat this delicious meal an hour or so after you purchase it.)

I, too, have noticed that these guys are definitely more fresh than Garden Catering -- as Robert said below, these guys make the food to order.  Piping hot in the bag when you walk out of the store!

This place needs to be in a throwdown or featured on FoodTV or Travel channel somehow. Great fried chicken, white meat nuggets, corn fritters, fries, fish sandwiches, etc...

Great food for great price.  I usually get the Highschool Special, or a fried fish sandwich or fried chicken. The crispiness of fried chicken is amazing. Always crunchy all around each piece. No sogginess at all. They also shake some special seasoning by request. All near Greenwich, CT have to try this place.
