Today I got the Fiesta Chicken Salad. Yum! The veggies were perfectly ripe and tasty, not wilty or under/over ripe. I love the seasoning they add to the grilled chicken. The sauce is their fresh made fiesta lime ranch, and they give you a big container of it which is more than enough for the salad. Salad has black olives, shredded cheese, red onion, romaine lettuce, chicken, crispy tortilla strips, and tomato. $11.99 for the salad. $2 for the small sweet tea. I chose grilled chicken but they also offer fried chicken.

We are from out of the state and come often to Klamath Falls for family and love coming here. Very casual, fun for the kids, and the chicken is great.

The Chicken Shack in Klamath Falls has the BEST chicken fingers and battered French fries that I've ever had! Whenever we travel to Klamath Falls we always stop and eat at the chicken shack. Always a nice clean environment, friendly staff, the food is made to order and is always hot and fresh. I've ate at a couple other locations in Las Vegas and it's not the same. This is the specific location that you want!

Loved the fries and the chicken fingers!! A great place to make a pit stop on a long road trip. Order ahead as it is busy and can be crowded.

Half an hour to close on a Ruesday and this place was still packed, in a town where it seems like they roll up the streets at 8. Call your order ahead. Chicken was fantastic, and fries were still pretty crispy by the time I got the food back to my hotel room. The sauces are phenomenal. More food than I could finish for $12, will absolutely be coming back.

We ordered the Shack Pack which came with 4 huge drinks. We chose to have 25 wings with fries which were all so crispy. The portion of fries was very generous and the food was enough to be shared among 5 people. There is a good variety of dips to choose from too for the wings and fries. A nice place to hang out with family and friends. (Photo showing half of The Shack Pack)
