A fun new place if you are a hot chicken lover! Though the menu is small and simple there is a spice level for everyone. I got the #3 combo so I could try both a tender and slider. You can mix and match spice, so I got the sandwich as mild and the tender as lite mild. I would recommend going at least mild, because anything less is just a dry rub which wasn't quite as tasty. The mild had just a nice little kick and was great in slider form. Though slider is a funny name, because it was the size of a full sandwich. The whole m... read more

Holy sh*t. Where has this food been my entire life. The chicken is SO GOOD and the fries are beyond expectations. Definitely a cool atmosphere inside! The Mild was great, decent amount of spice but still got the other flavors on the chicken and in the spice mix. The medium was also delicious!

Soo good! It's so refreshing that the heat levels actually reflect the levels of heat, as I have a ridiculously high spice tolerance. This is easily something everyone can enjoy, even picky eaters!

Nice juicy and crispy chicken tenders. Pretty spendy at almost $5 per, but I guess we live in a spendier world now. Think a small/medium chicken breast, not a chicken finger. Even the Medium packs some spice, so start there and push your comfort zone from there. They make you sign a waiver to order the Reaper. It's a dry heat that builds to a pretty good level! (YMMV) I have no idea why they give you a slice of white bread with every tender. Just seems weird. Only 2 reasons I can think of, 1) so you can make the juvenile jo... read more

Another great chicken addition to Eugene. The chicken came out crispy and moist with great coverage of their seasoning. I had the extra hot and hot which both tasted excellent. I imagine the extra hot would be hot if your heat tolerance is low, but if you like heat then this is a pretty decent amount of spice. Worth checking out this restaurant especially if you like spicy chicken.

Chicken tender heaven. Seasoning was excellent with a fair amount of heat when ordered medium. Next time I will go a bit hotter but overall, really delicious!!

This place was awesome. Like a step up from Chik Fil A or Popeyes. A bit pricier, but it was worth it. Despite the crowd on opening day, I went with five of my friends and we were seated so fast. Our food was served in a timely manner too. Friendly staff and very filling. I will be back!
