As a massive fried chicken fanatic, I had high expectations based on the raving reviews here, but Beaks highly underdelivered. The restaurant was dead quiet when I walked in, which should have been my first warning. The chicken itself was overcooked, quite dry, and the breading had that distinct, off-putting taste of old fryer oil. If you are comparing this to clean-fried, juicy chicken like Mary Brown's, you will be disappointed. The only saving grace was the fries—they give you a large portion and they actually tasted decent. The kitchen really needs to put more care into their core product and cycle their oil.
