My friend brought a Reaper Roulette Slider pack to a party. I got the reaper. I have a high spice tolerance and this was the first time in a decade that I actually thought something was spicy. Washed it down with two glasses of milk. It's pretty darn good, and a really fun game to play.

Quick service and great chicken! Went with the combo #3 with medium heat which gives you a tender and slider. Fries were crispy and the dipping sauce had awesome flavor. Also ordered a side of Mac and cheese which was extremely creamy, but the cup was barely filled half way. Would definitely come back the next time I'm in the area to up the heat a notch and try the hot flavor in a combo.

Great food and service. While they are known for hot chicken, I am glad they offer the no spice option - that is my favorite. I also like their vanilla milkshake. It is easy to order on their website for a quick pickup. I recommend stopping by.

A terrific fast-casual fried chicken spot! I have heard a co-worker rave about this place, and one Sunday decided to venture out. While it may not be worth a frequent half-hour drive, they are doing their thing right. The menu is kept simple, and the focus is on expertly preparing chicken (well, and fries too). I ordered a single slider, "hot," and a side of fries. A slider is filled with a single tender. As such, it fills just about 75% of the sandwich. Reason enough to get a #3 next time! (#3 = one slider + one tender + ... read more

Came here on a Thursday night before closing. Food came out fast and hot. I tried the #3, 1 slider (extra hot) and 1 tender (hot). The chicken was crispy & juicy. The slaw and sauce on the slider were also delicious. The biggest let down for me was the spice level. In my opinion the hot was very mild and the extra hot was just a medium level spice. I guess I'll have to try reaper next time. Also, the price was a little high for the value. I think I'll be back to try the reaper spice, but not for anything else. Nice to try it... read more
