So crispy and good! Big portions and fair pricing! I ordered the mild and it was just the right kick of spice for me! Tried medium and was still doable, might try hot next time ????
What a simple menu that tickles the tongue, slaps the cheeks and drips your nose. The sliders are definitely GMF (good mouth feel). The moment your teeth cuts the batter and the breast, drizzled in their creamy house sauce, rouge red spice, and gentle supple buns sloshing in your mouth as you chew slowly before your gullet receives the bolus that was your slider; that is what makes eating this so much fun. The slider was a good gradual spice increasing with every bite. Made my nose require multiple napkin wipes, spreading the chili spice around my mouth causing a warm chain reaction sensation and swelling of my lips. Don't worry, it calms down after. Overall if you're in need of a spicy sandwich, this place is a quick pick. This place satisfies those south of LA not going to Howling Rays because the drive is too far. Luckily this place made itself a chain and you might not be too far from the next one. Cluck cluck ???? ????
One of the best juicy tenders and fries I've ever had! The spice I got was medium and it was the right kind of taste that went along with it! The sauce enhanced it even more! Will come back here again!
