In Milford, there is a newly built Raising Cane’s. It is located at 1455 Boston Post Road, Milford, Connecticut 06460, and they are open seven days a week. I went during mid-day, around 1–2 p.m.
When I first arrived, there were no parking spots, so I had to park nearby instead of in the actual parking lot. As you can guess, it was packed with people inside. I do have to say, even though it was packed, they were very quick in bringing out my food. They got our orders correct and in a timely manner, even though there were many people there. The workers were very respectful and polite when talking to my family and me.
The food was very warm, and I was excited to try it. I got the Caniac Combo. It consists of six chicken tenders, Texas toast, crinkle fries, two cups of Cane’s sauce, coleslaw, and a drink. I’m not a coleslaw lover, so I didn’t eat it, but I did try everything else. Starting with the chicken tenders, they had a crunchy outer skin while the actual chicken was moist. I really enjoyed it, especially with the sauce. I thought the fries were unsalted, but there was nothing to really complain about, and they were still good with the sauce. The Texas toast was the best thing I ate. The toast was a little greasy, but I enjoyed it so much. They also have your choice of a fountain drink, with different types of tea next to the fountain and lemonade behind the counter.
As for the cleanliness of the restaurant, the tables and counters were very clean, with no crumbs left on them. It was very spacious, with multiple tables and seats in the restaurant. Overall, it was very clean. Their prices, in my opinion, were fair, and it satisfied my hunger. I really enjoyed the entire experience, and if you are in the area, I would definitely recommend giving it a try. With its high-quality chicken, signature sauce, and straightforward menu, Raising Cane’s offers an enjoyable dining experience that is worth the visit.
