We love it here. My son and I usually join my mom for lunch here at least once a week. The staff are absolutely amazing. Attentive, cleanly, friendly, and always ready to greet with a smile. 10/10 reccomend going to dine in here. Restrooms are always very clean and don't smell. Food is always delicious.

Located in the heart of Aldine, this location is a in a rough part of town. Teenagers hand out in the front of the business. The inside is decent though, the staff is friendly and fast. The food tastes as Cane's should.

Chicken tenders were fresh and hot, so were the French fries. The service was excellent, and my food was served in a timely manner.

As a European traveller i was amazed to try this extremely tender, fresh and crispy chicken! Not a lover of fast food but guys this is a must try. The flavor is masterfully balanced, the sauce that comes with it blends the whole taste perfectly. Better than kfc and other similar chains per my taste.

I'm amazed by this location. We ordered three combos of extra-extra-crispy tenders and fries. By the time we served the drinks, our order was prepared quickly and perfectly. As I sat down, I noticed an employee checking the drink station to ensure it was clean.
