Tried the whole chicken meal with pickles today, but unfortunately, Charcoal House fell a bit short of expectations. With a strong 4.9 rating and over 150 reviews, I was really hoping I discovered a hidden gem.
Overall, the chicken was just okay — the breast was slightly dry, the maryland was decent, and the housemade seasoning was nice. I’m a big fan of garlic sauce, so I was particularly excited for theirs, but it ended up being a letdown. The garlic flavour was very mild and lacked the punch I was hoping for.
On a more positive note, the chips were excellent. The chicken salt and rosemary seasoning really stood out, and they paired nicely with the meal.
