Raising Cane's began in the mid-1990s as a chicken-finger restaurant concept built by Todd Graves, starting from a limited-menu idea centered on quality chicken finger meals. The company serves cooked-to-order chicken fingers with Cane's Sauce, crinkle-cut fries, Texas toast, coleslaw, freshly squeezed lemonade, and iced tea, and the business also extends into catering, gift cards and gear, and community partnerships. Raising Cane's has grown into a U.S. restaurant chain with a broad footprint and a focus on food service, branded merchandise, and community support programs. The brand's story also includes a dog namesake and a simple restaurant identity built around a narrow menu and a consistent dining experience.
