Chickie and Pete's

Service didn't start out great with a little confusion and 2 different waitresses coming over trying to take our order at separate times, but ignoring that fact this place was good.  Got crab fries to start which were on par with the other locations.  Really dig the fact that you get two dipping sauces of cheese. Ended up getting the roast pork green which was heavily packed but on a smaller than normal seeded roll. The buffalo chicken nachos were good too but not sure if they're good enough to be $13.  Kid friendly location.  Good $2 happy hour beer special even in the restaurant.  Insanely fast food service. It came out in minutes.  Almost too fast.  Overall was pleased with the place.

After we aborted lunch at the Rainforest Cafe (my son had a fit), we were hungry.  We saw a sign for this place and decided to give it a whirl.  We had dined here when it was Damon's.  The only time I have been in a Chickie and Pete's was in Philadelphia long ago.

We had a brand new waitress.  She was friendly, but did knock my wife's drink spilling quite a bit of it.  We would have liked that refreshed.

We received lots of food.  Of course. we paid for this.  The highlights were the nachos.  Lots of peppers, plenty of chips and loads of guacamole.  In addition, there were lots of olives for my wife.

The crabby fries were fine.  Far too many for us given the nachos, but fine.  My wife had the crab cake sandwich.  She was unimpressed.  I had the pork sandwich.  It was loaded.  It was fine for what it was; it would have not cut in Philly, but it was an okay change of pace.

Lots of televisions showing sports.  Lunch was okay, but I doubt we'll seek coming back again.

The worst chickie's location I've been to. Not a great level set for the rest of this growing chain... The one at the airport is better! The food doesn't taste the same. The provolone sauce here is straight up flour, the crab fries got soggy, which they NEVER, honestly, never have in south Philly. We didn't get bread with the mussels, and the pork was seasoned differently, and not well. The mussels were good. The service is heinous. Had to ask for plates and silverware, and then we were only awarded forks... No knives or spoons god forbid. Not going back to this one.
