First, let me say this is an excellent addition to the City Market food area. There is a lot of culinary diversity in City Market, and I, for one, am glad to see the right old chicken 🐣 place come along. At first glance, All About Chicken is a tiny, clean "is what it is" chicken restaurant. The same two gentlemen always seem to be working the counter so they might be owners or maybe relatives of the owners. They are friendly enough, I guess, for their ages. The food is made to order, which I am a massive fan of. You can always taste fresh in my eyes. The chicken fingers and nuggets we're both excellent. The french fries were bag fries but still not bad. I think they should try hand-cut ones to step it up some.
There were only a few issues that we had with the establishment.
1) There needs to be more variety of dipping sauces. Some of the best chicken places in the metro make their own, so they should try that out.
2) The staff seemed not to engage much, and that to me for a small Mom & Pop place is not the best idea. Especially in high traffic areas like City Market.
3) The tables were made of wood. That on the surfaces does not seem back, but wood hold "nasty." You can properly clean a surface like open pour wood (easy fix for them).
4) My most significant issue today, when I visited, was their sign out front. The restaurant serves chicken and waffles. Much like any metro chicken place would. However, under mentioning that they had chicken and waffles, it said, and I quote.
"F**@ The Waffler"
The Waffler is amount on my personal favorite original food trucks in KCMO. I get the banter among established chains, but good lord, too much. Even if I did not like The Waffler, I had to hear my 6-year-old son ask me what the "F" stood for. Keep in mind, guys, that area is a HUGE family meca. I enjoyed my food, though.
