Raising Cane’s is a fast food chain founded in 1996. Ever since then, the restaurant has been popular all over the country for its food. Raising Cane’s, has opened recently in Manassas and everyone is talking about it. What do Osbourn students think about Raising Cane’s opening? Are they going to try it? And if they tried it, how was it, and what was their favorite part about it? Let’s find out!

“I’m very excited for Raising Cane’s to open. I’m excited to try the sauce and the chicken tenders,” said Thomas Wright. Many students have heard of Raising Cane’s through social media. They are famous for their chicken tenders and their sauce. “I can’t wait to try Raising Cane’s! I heard the bread and the Cane’s Sauce were some of their best items,” said Edgar Ortiz Martinez.  Another item at Raising Cane’s that is very popular is their bread/toast. People have raved about the bread throughout the country on social media. 

Raising Cane’s opened in Manassas on April 9th, and students at Osbourn have all had different opinions on it.  “I’m not sure if I want to go to Raising Cane’s yet because of how long the lines are, but when the lines get shorter, I want to try it,” said Graidys Rivera.

Because of how recently Cane’s opened at this location, the lines, especially on the opening days, are huge. “The worst part about Raising Cane’s was that I had to wait 30 minutes in line just to get my food because so many people wanted to try it, but the food made the wait worth it,” said Joana Flores.  This is yet another example of how busy the Raising Cane’s lines were on the opening days.

“My favorite part about Raising Cane’s was the chicken tenders, which where crispy and fresh,” said Joseph Lara. Raising Cane’s is known for their chicken tenders, so the fact that they’re fresh and crispy according to this person is good to know because that is how most people like their chicken tenders.

“The iced tea from Raising Cane’s is my favorite menu item because of how much I love iced tea and because of the  type of ice that they use in their drinks,” said Joshua Jala-Guinto. Most people talk about how good the chicken, or bread, or the sauce is, but no one ever mentions the drinks and it’s good for customers that their drinks and ice are superior.

“I enjoyed Raising Cane’s food, but I think it is overall overrated. But the bread was a 10/10 and the chicken tenders were crispy and juicy,” said Vivian Nguyen. Even though it was very good, people over social media made it seem like Raising Cane’s is life-changing, even though it is not.

Finally, my opinion on Cane’s is that it is really tasty. The fries where surprisingly better than I expected, and the drinks, chicken, and bread were all delicious. But, I think the sauce was definitely overrated. Even though it was good, I think the large quantities of sauce that people are getting are too much. Overall, Cane’s was a good experience, especially since the lines died down. The food overall is very tasty and I recommend trying it out for yourself!

The Raising Cane’s in Manassas is located at 9501 Liberia Avenue.
