The reviews began pouring in almost immediately after the nuggets hit menus.

These were good-sized pieces, slightly larger that your average Chick-fil-A nugget.

The chicken itself varied a little in quality, but was generally solid.

The biggest wallop of flavor came from the crispy breading.

It was heavily seasoned, slightly spicy, and genuinely tasted of tortilla chips.

The Jalapeno Honey Mustard had a lovely kick and a great balance of tang and sweetness.
