" Visiting Pelicana was quite the experience! I ordered the original batter fried chicken, and it was crispy and flavorful – just what I wanted. The appetizers, especially the cheese balls, were delightful! The only downside was the wait time, which was longer than I expected, but the taste made it worth it. The staff were friendly and attentive, which added to the overall pleasant experience. I will definitely be back! " (*Curated Review*)
