Ordered ahead for takeout. Was ready before we got there. I will say, this is not comparable to the glory days of Pop's Hot Chicken food truck - but it is the best hot chicken sandwich Tucson's currently got. The chicken is juicy and crispy, the slaw is OK, pickles are good, and they give you extra sauce. It was $17 for two sliders (no drink, 20% tip). Eating these like a hotdog is the best way to do it, because of how the chicken is shaped, but you don't get everything each bite. I think I could go up to extra hot next time... read more

Terrific chicken slider. Popeyes finally has competition. Nice folks and fast. I'll be back.

I honestly don't get the hype. My son and I tried this place today, waiting in line for about 15 minutes to order. Our order came out in about 10 minutes which was pretty good given how busy it was. The chicken was fairly tasty, but pretty greasy. I ordered a Kale Coleslaw for a side for $3.49 and got a half filled container (see pic). The fries were good. We'll probably come back, but I wasn't overly impressed. For spending $30 for 2 I expected more.

Rock solid spicy chicken sandwich- I got the reaper and was pleasantly surprised by the spice level. Extra hot just didn't do it for me at the chandler location. I appreciate the slaw which cut the spice and the abundance of pickles in the spicy chicken sandwich/tender combo. Next time I'll just get a spicy chicken sandwich with a side of Mac! Definitely worth stopping by if you love spicy chicken.

The food was great! I am not a fan of crinkle fries but it's probably because they've never been cooked right, these fries were the best crinkle fries I've ever had, crisp! Best chicken sandwich ever, I got the hot but I could have gone hotter. Overall excellent!

Solid place overall but if you're looking for the typical Nashville-style hot chicken, it's a little different since the only chicken offerings come in chicken tender form (either tender vs tender in a slider) instead of a choice of breast, thigh, or wing pieces. There are different combos to choose from which come with pickles, a side of fries, piece of toast, and Dave's sauce. After driving by a few times in the weeks after their opening, we finally found a time when the line wasn't completely out the door and got our fo... read more

Went for first time. To start, I was very surprised they didn't have a drive-through, but I can see where that parking lot doesn't really lend itself to one. But that does mean you need to get out of your car and go in an order. When I went at 11:45 on a weekday the line was long, like at the door long. So I saw their online pick up sign and decided I was going to order online and then track to see if I really was a smart as I thought I was. The answer is yes, I am as smart as I think I am. I had my food before the people w... read more
