I just wanted to brag on Midas Burger! We decided to ask if they would take a large order and deliver it to the school. They have been so easy to work with and very polite! I am not sure who I have spoken with on the phone, but please send my happy thoughts and appreciation their way!

★★★★★Best Chicken Sandwich on Earth

I live in New York City, but grew up in Arab, AL, and the only thing I miss about Arab, outside of my mom, is the chicken sandwich at Midas Burger! The best I've ever had, bar none.

This restaurant has been around since I was a kid, and I have not found a chicken sandwich that I liked better. They make their own sauce and it is great. It's a very small place but the food is great.
