Couldn't even place an order. The location relies entirely on self-service kiosks, but none of them were working. No one around to help, and no alternative way to order. I'm not against using kiosks, but if you're going to make them the only option, they need to actually function.

Wowza that's good chicken! High quality meat, super crispy, and hot (HOT) sauces available. Comeback sauce is necessary! Mac and cheese is also so good, super creamy and cheesy!

The sliders are tasty and the food was freshly made. If you get sauce on the side, check your box before you leave! I got a couple sauces on the side for a to-go order and when I got back, neither were in there :(

The food was divine. I'm a vegan and I came along with my friends and just got a side of mac and cheese which was pretty good. But the food my friends got just looked so so so so good. I couldn't help myself and for the first time in 27 years I ate meat. And I'm just going to put this out here, It's okay that the chicken died for this wonderful meal. Now I eat tendeez 3 times a week! Couldn't recommend more.

Hello! This is a detailed breakdown and honest review of Tendeez Hot Chicken in Oshkosh Wisconsin

Ordering Experience:
This location has two options for ordering. You may either order online or on-site using on of the provided tablets. I chose to place my order online. The menu is somewhat limited which I appreciated as it gives the impression that they serve only their specialization which hints at great food. As I did not use the tablets, I cannot speak to those.

Atmosphere:
Upon entering the facility I was quite shocked that there was nobody to be found. I understand that this is a grab-n-go location but I always kind of expect there to at least be a public-facing employee who greets you upon entry. I was not greeted by anybody nor did I even see an employee at all. The pick-up spot, which they cleverly name "The Nesting Box" was easy to use and kept the food warm. I gave Tendeez two stars for atmosphere because I think the branding is great, but the atmosphere of the building it self feels cold and empty. This would not be a factor for people who order delivery.

Food:
For my meal I ordered 2 Sliderz, one mild and one hot, and a side of curly fries. Starting with the curly fries, I think the portion was generous and the flavor was okay, but they were a little underdone for my preference. I do understand, however, that different people have different preferences on doneness. The sweet buns for the sliders were very good, as well as the slaw. Both of those items were spot on. The chicken, however left much to be desired. I was unfortunately disappointed with the chicken. I was very excited to try it as the chicken is their specialty. For my order, the chicken was very overdone. The breading was extremely crunchy with the last couple bites of each tender being nothing but fried breading. The meat was dry and chewy, having to chew it for a while before swallowing. The seasoning is okay, nothing to write home about. If you are wondering which spice level to choose, I would recommend going one lower that normal. If you normally order a "medium" spice level, you would probably want to order mild here. The spice here defaults higher. It is called Tendeez HOT Chicken after all. Don't expect zero spice. I think the price is fair for what you get.

Overall:
Ultimately, I think there is some vey good potential here, with a little tweaking. The branding is good, the food is overall mediocre, and the atmosphere was uninviting. I think if they could get their chicken frying time down, tweak the spices a little bit, and have a greeter for those that enter the building (even if its a kitchen member), this could grow into being a great contender in the ever-competitive chicken market. As of now, I think there are better options out there.

Side note:
I was reading some of the companies responses to criticism here on Google Reviews. I was extremely turned off by the response given to a gentleman named Brad 5 months ago. He left a 1 star review and Tendeez proceeded to tear his review apart with their fact findings. I have worked customer service for over 12 years and I know all too well that the customer is NOT always right. However, posting that publicly to Google was pretty distasteful. Those are conversations that can be had privately while addressing customer concerns.

Very disappointed, I ordered two chicken sliders. The sandwich was sloppy made, the chicken was old, I think the grease was old, and the fries were cold. I will drive to Green Bay or Milwaukee to Dave's Hot Chicken. This place will never steal my money again.

Got the 2 slider box with one medium and one spicy sandwich. Chicken was crispy and spicy! There is no place to sit down in and eat as they only take to go orders.

Such great food! Went twice in a row cause they were that good. Seems like they get lots of business so the wait sometimes is a little bit but definitely worth the wait!!

I have never been disappointed with this place. The food is always phenomenal! I’ve gotten take out and delivery numerous times and always had great food and great service. My ONLY complaint….I think it’s a huge missed opportunity that the Mac and cheese isn’t offered in a gallon bucket sized portion.

Great food! Took a little longer than expected but that’s okay it was well worth it. I don’t like when chicken comes in chewy or overcooked in some spots but this place perfected the craft for the slightly more expensive price!!!! Well worth it for people picky with chicken…. But I am also a spice guy and the yikes tenders were very hot so it was an accomplishment !!! Keep it up 🚀🚀🚀

It's an unmanned kiosk. You order online or at the ipads sitting there, then wait until your order is placed in a little locker. Underwhelming would be the best word to describe the food. Tenders were overcooked, stringy, and tough. I don't know if they never had authentic Nashville hot chicken and were just guessing, but the spice / heat levels were a joke. The hottest level barely left a tingle. Decent flavor, but little to no heat. The sides were okay. Nothing really dazzled, but it was edible. Unless I just experienced a new place's "growing pains", I doubt I'll be back. I'll take the drive to Green Bay to Dave's Hot Chicken if I want authentic and decent heat.

The chicken was OK but slightly spicy aftertaste. The curly fries were either undercooked or sitting there for a while because they were extremely rubbery. Our food didn’t even come with any napkins. Took almost 20 minutes to get our order. There were some people before us who said they were waiting more than 30 minutes just for a couple of sliders and some sides. Was really thinking the place was going to be a lot better than this but it’s basically self service so that’s why I gave one star for Service. You walk into a self service kiosk, order your food and then wait a really long time just to be disappointed with not so good food. I would have to say Kwik Trip chicken is way better than this. I will say that the food was hot, waiting in its own special nest warmer. I had one large piece of chicken and then a couple small pieces of chicken to kind of make up for one big one which was also disappointing. I was expecting two single pieces of chicken. Instead, I got three small and one large. Was just not worth our time.

Food took entirely too long. Nothing of quality. Overpriced.

Edit: since I can't reply to the owners comment. My husband made the order and it was about a month ago. I did leave a review then, but it seems to have disappeared somehow.
There was no human in the tendeez part of the restaurant, and no one at Parker johns wanted to help.

(I ordered the sauce and slaw on the side so I could try everything on its own but man, it really pulls the entire sandwich together! So so good!)

Really good chicken that is crunchy and juicy at the same time. We ordered the "Yikes" heat and it lived up to it's name. Also the pepper cole slaw is really good tasting and has a nice sour kick.

Wow just wow, the nashville hot chicken here is fantastic! I had the sliders on what they call sweet bunz and I am currently challenging myself to find a better sandwich out there. The bread with the hot sauced chicken tender, coleslaw, pickles and what they call comeback sauce will have you coming back for lunch frequently. I have been here three times and they just opened last week! YOU HAVE TO TRY THE FOOD HERE!
