Cluck You!
No it is not a bad word, it is a restaurant located in Red Bank, New Jersey. I would describe Cluck-u as a sit down fast-food style restaurant whose specialty is chicken dishes. Their menu includes; chicken sandwiches, wings, boneless wings, fried chicken, breast bites, burgers, pulled pork sandwiches, wraps, desserts and much more. Cluck-u also has a variety of their original trademark wing sauces, which are all describe on their sauce-meter.
“Without the sauce, Cluck-U would be nothing”, Scott (cashier/waiter).
Cluck-u is a very small restaurant with seating for only about twenty people. The walls are painted a bright yellow color and are covered with pictures of the Cluck-u chicken mascot. The mascot is a big yellow chicken and in these pictures, he appears to be a high school student. There is one bathroom for customers only, which was actually very clean. The counter, at which you from, order has a black top and a thick glass base. Behind the counter you can see directly into the kitchen.
 Next to the soda machine at the end of the counter, is the “Wall of Flame”. To be inducted into the “Wall of Flame” you have to eat six wings smothered in their trademark 9-11 wing sauce. This is a sauce so hot that all participants must sign a release form before attempting to eat these unbearably hot wings. The other way to get on the wall is by dethroning the current wing-king! For this challenge, you are given as much time as you want to eat as many wings as you can in one sitting. To take this crown you need to eat ninety-one wings.
I arrived at around 1:00p.m with two of my friends to grab lunch. I ordered; a BBQ- chicken sandwich, fries, ten breast bites with atomic level sauce, and a drink. The three of us sat down and watched the flat screen TV while we waited for our food.
The food arrived fairly quickly, maybe fifteen minutes after we ordered. The cashier even came out from behind the counter and brought our food to us. My portions were very generous and I was allowed free re-fills for my root-beer.
After I finished I could not eat another bite. I was completely full and all the food was delicious. Though I felt that the bill was a just few dollars over priced, but I could not complain. And the only other critique I had would be that their dining space is very small. But if you don’t want to dine in house, Cluck-u has a great delivery service.
If you want to eat chicken like you have never eaten before, I strongly recommend coming to Cluck-u! You will not leave hungry. And if you are feeling lazy, just give them a call and you will have your food in less than an hour.

  1. I really enjoyed your review of Cluck-u because it was very descriptive and gave me the immediate impression I would have of the restaurant if I were to go myself. The pictures were also a great help to add to the illusion of Cluck-u because it’s easier to imagine yourself going somewhere when you already know what it looks like. Aside from making me hungry, your review made me want to visit Cluck-u one day and have an experience of my own.
