This partucular Hungry Jacks seems to have a reputation as a meeting place for hoodlums, but upon entering for the sake of an Angry Crispy Chicken burger I found the only problems that plagued it were overcrowding around the ordering area and malfunctioning card machines.
The front entry/exit lends itself to a stylish exit into the trendy Parramatta shopping area!

Approximate cost: $6

This was a mixed experience for me. The upper floor had a rather charming koi pond in it, but the lower floor was quite casual and not to my taste. The open grill visible from the windows was why we came and so we ordered the grilled chicken. We also had gai lan with oyster sauce and tomato rice.

Upon eating the chicken I found it quite delectable, although maybe the plucking could have been done with more care.
The waiter was chatty when I first arrived and once I found a small chicken hair in my food they were quick to approach me with their explanations. I also had a lemonade which was very natural and traditional in style and my partner had a passionfruit drink.

In total the meal cost me and my fiance $40, which we felt was exorbitant for chicken, even if it was free-range. I would return, but only for the Japanese wagu beef steak, and only to eat in the upper floor.

Approximate cost: $40
