Triangle Fried Chicken

Reviews & Tips

• 0

  When the place first came to town I was a bit excited since there aren't many other places to eat in Triangle/Dumfries. (Before the new McDonald's was built). The menu board is bright and colorful but that's where the excitement ends.  I was skeptical about going in since there were NO other customers at lunch time.  That's usually a sign for me.   I took a chance and prayed that I wouldn't get sick from the food.  I ordered a chicken dinner.  The food didn't taste bad but the pieces of chicken were sooooo tiny.  The drumstick was a little bigger than the one you get with a wingette.  I was expecting more considering the place has "Fried Chicken" in the name.  I haven't been back since.

  I like their fried chicken, nice alternative to KFC which is located down the street. They also have items such as gyros on the menu. I tried a gyro, which was ok, but I'd rather eat the chicken and save the gyros for authentication Greek establishments!

  On the recommendation of co-workers, I gave this spot a try.  Had the wings and while they were small, they did taste good.  This is the kind of place that will hit the spot in a crunch.  I'll have to try something else off the menu to see if they warrant an increase in ratings.  The staff is very courteous and attentive!

  Delish!  Not your average KFC or Popeyes chicken, if you are sick of the mainstream, this is the chicken for you.  Crispy, well seasoned outside, juicy inside.  Not too fond of their mashed potatoes, seemed like instant, but the Mac and cheese was good and the coleslaw was too.  But their chicken is dynamite!  And best of all, they DELIVER!  Crispy fried chicken, right to your doorstep, you can't beat that...

  Found this place searching yelp for something to eat while in the area for school.
  
  I was thinking English style Fish & Chips. What I got was crispy and moist but not English style. No Malt Vinegar, thin crispy breading and McD's style fries instead of thick Steak cut fries. I'm not complaining mind you just telling it like it is.
  
  I had two big pieces of Whiting and three whole chicken wings, fries and a roll for less than $10 pretty good value in my opinion. Food went well with a Boxcar Pumpkin Porter!
  
  Food was good and the menu looks very good they offer a good selection of items I very well might be back before i leave town again. If you are in the area and like fried chicken, skip KFC and come here!
  
  Sláinte!

  Hard to find, but good when you do.  Their fish is just simple fried fillets, but they come out moist with a good flavor, not all dried up and tasting like cardboard. .  Haven't had any real good fish in the area since Dent's moved so to me this is a nice find.  Not great, but nice, you know? Coupons and combos, they also have subs, steak sandwiches and shrimp.
  
  They do pretty good gyros, too.  Not as good as in New York, but pretty decent.  But what made me really do this review is their little $1.75 dish of sweet potato pie.  You know, the kind they sell on the corner for a dollar in NYC and Philly?  Along with the bean pies?  The owner says he gets them from NYC and he has people driving all the way from DC to get them.  Anyway, he has some in the warmer, and for seven bits (plus tax) you get a tasty little bite of the Big Apple and what it's like growing up there.  Nice memory.
  
  This place can be hard to find though.  It's tucked away between the split lanes of Route 1 as it leads through Dumfries.  If you can picture East Coast Harley and the Baskin Robbins, keep coming south on Route 1.  And as soon as you cross through the traffic light (cross all the way THRU the intersection) the entrance to Triangle Shopping Plaza is on your left.  If you miss it, you can redeem yourself a little ways up the hill at the next entrance on the left.  If you're coming north, pass the fire station and the Corvette dealer on your right and start looking left .  I think it's your first turn although it looks like you're going into a VDOT facility.  You'll see the lanes for the plaza as you head in (if memory serves me well here).  And if that doesn't work, oh well, just try the next left :)
