What a cool ambiance and staff! Came for the first time and decided I had to try the cauliflower bites, mac n cheese, and chicken slider. I love that they have vegetarian options. I learned I'm a wimp though because the "mild lite" was too spicy for me! Proceed with caution but the food is good, and Justin is the bomb! 

Business response:

Love that you gave the cauliflower bites a try, Xtina! And hey, no shame in finding "mild lite" spicy—heat tolerance is no joke! Glad Justin took good care of you, and hope you come back for more (maybe with an extra side of mac & cheese to cool things down)!

Good service, nice employees, everything is nice and clean and open. The chicken sliders are great and so are the tenders and fries. Be warned though, the mild is pretty spicy so if you're sensitive to spice maybe try light mild or no spice and see if you can get it on the side to try it just in case. Flavor is amazing though and the Dave's sauce is really good not as salty as Canes 

Business response:

Appreciate the heads-up for spice-sensitive guests, John! Glad you enjoyed the sliders, fries, and that Dave’s sauce. We’ll always be here when you’re ready for another round—maybe working your way up the spice levels next time!

I love seeing new places pop up in Reno! We visited at lunch time on a Monday and the line was manageable but definitely got busy! What a great location, and an absolutely fun, bright environment. I had the slider and fries combo - unfortunately I was a wimp and only did the light spice and wish I went spicier. The overall flavor was good on the chicken, I loved the slaw & bun! I didn't care for the fries or their sauce - the fries felt like they lacked seasoning & the sauce was too mayo based for my preference. I definitely... read more

Staff was nice, met the manager and he was super nice. Food was incredible, use honey on the chicken, trust! The wait wasn't too bad since we went on opening day. 

Business response:

Great call on the honey! Happy to hear you had a solid experience, especially on opening day.

I ordered the 1-slider and 1-tender. The combos do not come with a drink. I really enjoyed the fries. The chicken i got with no spice and it didn't really have a whole lot of flavor. My husband ordered 2-tenders. The tenders are huge and they serve with a very lightly barely toasted piece of bread. 

Business response:

Glad you liked the fries! Sounds like you might enjoy a spicier option next time—hope you give it another shot.
