Ended up with the #4 combo and mini sliders! Fries are fresh and flavorful. It’s not soggy! Ended up with hot for my sandwich. It’s not too spicy at all. It’s seasoned so well with a nice coating. It’s not a crispy chicken, more breaded. Texture is pleasant. Sliders seem tiny but it’s so a mini version of the regular sliders, same flavors
