I can’t believe I waited so long to try this place. I got the Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich with fries and collared greens.

Food is good, as well as the quantity of the chicken sandwich. Had a nice zip to the spices on the chicken. We will have to go back and try it again and maybe take the spice level up next time.

Stopped for a late lunch after reading reviews for Chicken Heat. We ordered two of the Nashville chicken sandwiches, one “hot” and the other “ghost pepper”, along with an order of fries. It was a 15-minute wait so they could “make it fresh”. The seating area is nothing special — just a few booths in a windowless room. But that didn’t matter cuz this sandwich was FANTASTIC. The sandwich came topped with a creamy coleslaw and a pickle slice. The fries were crispy and hot. If you like Nashville hot chicken, this is your place.

First time going and it definitely won’t be my last. I was the first one there and after placing my order I was informed they only had 2 heat sticks left so they refunded me and gave me a free order of shrimp. And boy am I glad, they have the BEST shrimp I’ve ever had, it’s crispy and has a the perfect kick. The Ghost Pepper chicken tenders had me sweating after a couple of bites. My only complaint is that the ranch is terrible. Other than that 11/10

Got the mild chicken sandwich, wussed out on the Nashville hot. But man it was good. Well seasoned, and the slaw that came on the sandwich was delicious to pair with it. My only criticism is the dine-in area is pretty small, only a few tables. But the food itself and service was top notch.

I ordered the chicken sandwich with mild heat and it was one of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve ever had. I MAYBE could’ve handled the next step up in heat, but the sandwich itself is GIANT (see pictures from other reviews) and the fries are delicious. Mild is definitely the way to go if you want a flavorful but not too spicy sandwich. Would definitely eat here again!

This place is AWESOME! Unbeatable chicken sandwich, as hot or as mild as you want, the portions are huge, the fries and sides are perfection, and the staff is very knowledgeable and friendly!

They had just gotten a 30 person to-go order and were out of their most popular sandwich but somehow were able to magically conjure one up! And, I’m so glad they did because it was absolutely delicious! I go to Nashville to visit my brother a lot and I’m glad to have a hot chicken spot in DSM to satiate my cravings!
