  Wow. Just popped in to this gritty little gem and had to take a few minutes' break from work to capture my elation on Yelp. What is the magic in this absolute hole-in-the-wall that somehow captured the supreme technique for battering and frying up sea/river food?! Is it the lingering spirits of master chefs who once reigned from the now-45-year-old Dairy Freeze (or was it Tastee Freez?) throne? It's so understated and ordinary by all outward appearances. But once you dive into their culinary wares you're sure to bend a knee to these fryer savants.
  
  I had the one piece fish (cat) with 6 shrimp (butterfly), which were tossed into a Styrofoam container atop a heap of amazingly crispy fries, a cold roll, and some curious coleslaw. Pure and absolute delight. So, so, so, so flavorful! Not a hint of fishiness to the shrimp or dirty-river'ness to the cat, nothing but sublime texture and deeply satisfying, zesty flavor, with the kind of crispy crunch that lasts all the way through the very last, perfectly golden french fry finger-lick.
  
  My word, the sorrow I feel for all other cities. For only in Wichita, KS, will you find this amazing Krispy's Fried Chicken & Seafood, skirting the outskirts on the old Joyland South Side. Don't take your date, fella, cuz the cheap, cheap prices and the grim ambience are gonna make your girl question your adoration for her. But definitely take your wife and kids. Give me a call and take me too! I wanna try the mashed potatoes next time.

  Chicken was OK
  
  Catfish was RIGHT on the MONEY. Love that cornmeal breading.
  
  Will return for catfish with my own stash of lemon juice.

  Came here based on review. First off, I'm from Southern California, Orange County, I enjoy eating fried chicken, fried foods and mac and cheese.
  
  Establishment, low key, rundown, but chill. Everyone was friendly customer service 5/5.
  
  Fried chicken 4/5. It's good, very juicy.
  Fried mac 4/5. Tastes good, nothing special though.
  Mashed potatoes 3/5. It tastes okay, nothing special.
  Fries 3/5. Tastes like fries.
  Fish filet 4/5. It's good, nice coating, big cut.
  
  I would recommend my Cali friends. It's something different from other fried places.
