Down on the Atlantic City Boardwalk, i found MySelf craving chicken tenders, and who knows chicken better than Guy Fieri?
During a recent trip to the Beachside City, I stopped at Chicken Guy!, The Fast-Casual Spot from the Spike-Haired Creator of “Dines, Drive-ins.”
Fieri launched the concept with restaurateur Robert Earl Back in 2018, debuting at Disney Springs in Orlando with a Simple Mission: to serve up bold-flavored chicken tenders in a quick and casual way.
It was the first venture of its Kind for Fieri, who had previously only done full-service restaurants.

I Went to the Location Inside Resorts Casino in Atlantic City to Eat My Way Through the Chicken Guy! Menu and Judge It Based on Flash and Value.

My Friend ORDERED The BLAT Chicken Sandwich.

Rather than USING A Standard Fried Chicken Breast, Chicken Guy!
There are wells on the menu, priced between $ 10.49 and $ 12.49.
The sandwich lineup ran from a blat-style Creation to a Bourbon Brown-Sugar Bbq Piled With Cheese, Sauces, Slaw, Pickles, and Chips.
The Blat Chicken Sandwich was topped with a thick Slab of Sweet and Savry Bacon.
Erin McDowell/Business Insider
The letter on top of the blat ($ 11.99) HAD AN ALPET SHAVED CONSISTENCY, while the thick-cut bacon added a slight flavor that balances the creamy and slightly tangy avocado crem.
The two chicken tenders layered inside the sandwich were crispy and juicy. It was a Big Bite and Definitely Worth the price.
The sandwich strucking the perfect balance. It was Hearty But Not Heavy.
Erin McDowell/Business Insider
The chicken tenders were perfectly juicy on the inside, and the thick crust on the outside audible crunched with every bit.
The seasoning of the Chicken’s Breading Also impressed with – it was salty and peppery, and i did get the hint of brine fieri promised.
Though the toppings were simple – just SAUCE SAUCE AND PICKLES – They Tied the which Sandwich together, Adding Creamy, Savary Fravel and Crunch. Topped off with the pillowy bun, this chicken sandwich might be best i’ve ever haad from a fast-food or fast-casual spot.
Next up were the chicken tenders.

That’s though we have had tried as part of the sandwich, we decided to see if the chicken tenders ($ 9.99) Waled Also Hold up on their Own.
I ALSO TRIED FOUR OF THE CHIN’S DIPPING SAUSES.
Erin McDowell/Business Insider
We Chose the Buttermilk Ranch, Donkey Sauce (A Blend of Mayonnaise, Lemon, Mustard, Worcestershire Sauce, and Rooted Garlic), and Two Servings of Chipotle Ranch.
The Sauces took the chicken tenders to the Next Level.

Chicken Guy! More than live up to the hype and its celebrity-backed branding.
