    Popped in to kill time and grab a quick beverage. Heard great things about the chicken here so even though I want hungry I ordered an a la carte tender. It was yummy! I got the plane Jane because I'm a sissy about spice. There was a bit of a wait for it to be prepped but OMG! So worry it! It was fresh, hot, and worth the wait! Perfectly seasoned, perfectly buttered toast with it. To die for good! Worth the belly ache! I so appreciate how kind Randy was about letting me just hang out while waiting for a meeting.

    Food was sensational ‍

    Nashville Hot Chicken - Mesa, AZ Easily one of the best local spots I've eaten at in a long time. The food here hits every mark perfectly seasoned, crispy chicken with that real Nashville kick, balanced out by fresh slaw and the kind of waffle fries you actually want to finish. What really stands out, though, is the owner. You can tell he puts everything into this place constantly checking in, making sure every plate comes out right, and treating customers like regulars even if it's their first time. He's not hiding in the back he's front and center, working hard to make sure people leave happy. The sandwich with the waffle buns and sauce drizzle (see photo) is legit next-level the perfect combo of crunch, heat, and sweet. And those loaded fries? Dangerous in the best way. If you're anywhere near Mesa, this spot deserves your stop. Support small business done right this is how it's supposed to be. Fire ! I haven't been here in months owner still remembers every detail of how I like my order. Phenomenal A1 service. Literally a one man show, treats all his customers like celebrities!!!

    Chicken Sando
    Stephanie L.

    Affordable prices/prices on par/cheaper than most fast food restaurants ($6.85 for chicken sando, $12.95 for chicken sando, fries, and a drink). While affordable, I was disappointed at the quality. The chicken was very dry, and scarce. Mild spiciness (we ordered blazin' which is "hot" but felt more like mild). The chicken sando had 1 chicken tender when it should have had at least 2. Half the sandwich had no chicken! I agree with others about the small portion of fries too. Waffle Sando, great in theory, but too much breading and too dry. Luckily there's other hot chicken restaurants!

    Tenders And Slaw

    Cut up chicken tenders, coleslaw, fries, and blazin hot sauce. It was enough for two people plus we took leftovers. It's a shame because it was so delicious! Fries were perfectly fried crispy The tenders were crispy and soo moist! The coleslaw was tangy and delicious. The sauce was yummy and hot and that was the blazin mild Owner was so nice let's get this place busy!!!

    Came back a second time because I live so darn close, paid 6 dollars for like 7 waffle fries. "1 refill per customer" on the fountain machine inside. The chicken is decent but these guys are kind of cheapskates.

    Came in on a Wednesday, the place is pretty spacious. We were helped quick and he told us it'd be a 15 minute wait, the food came out in a timely manner. We ordered the number 3 combo chicken sandwich plate. My partner ordered a level 7 spice, which he said got his nose sweating but a nice level of spice. I got a level 5 spice which was perfect for those who want a tiny tingle with great seasonings. The buns were perfectly intact and fluffy. The chicken was crispy, the pickles and slaw was refreshing. The fries were perfectly crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside. We got a side a ranch which tasted like hidden valley but thicker. Overall, loved everything we ate. They even had sparkling water on tap which we enjoyed throughly.

    Twisted tea in the bottle is the best

    The food here is always on point. Great Service nice people. I have tried many places and this place I keep going back to it. Thank for the great food and they are open late. The best part is you can grab a beer or a alcoholic beverage

We got the Chicken Tinga Nachos as an appetizer and it was a perfect amount for the 4 of us. I got a burger and it was pretty delish.

We had a party and booked it for outside, as we were told they have misters and it's in the shade and very doable. Part of that was correct- their misters weren't working. There was no real attempt to move us inside, other than splitting up a birthday party across the restaurant. The main issue is that no one told us- I had to go inside and ask why they aren't on. Not a great look, but I'll be back to try them again.

Afterwards, he mentioned that he tasted it and agreed about our comments- I appreciate that level of attention. Shortly after, the food arrived. Spicy pork tacos for me, and BLTA for my wife. The tacos looked a little overdressed. I was so wrong. Flavor and texture were balanced perfectly. The tortillas were firm, but again, perfectly suited to the juicy pork, that had a teriyaki vibe. Sprouts, carrot and cucumber toppings worked well, despite my expectations. The BLTA was HUGE. Great flavor. Both entrees were ordered with sweet potato fries. Unusual cut to them, but seasoned perfectly. I paired mine with chipotle aioli and ate every last one. My only complaint is that I'm only spending one evening in the Phoenix area, and won't be back soon. I would eat this food three times a week without hesitation.

There is plenty of bar space if you're popping in for a drink.. of course, the actual bar that runs along the shelves of liquor, and there is also a bar on the other side of a roll-up door, perfect for people who come with dogs. There's also a bar space that runs along the window that separates the small dining room and the patio. There are a few tables inside as well as some bigger tables on the patio. The patio is nice with lots of shrubs right outside the rail. The murals on the wall are pretty darn cool - - they're like enlarged historic photos of the area. I love them! And I'm not sure who's giant face is hanging on the ceiling but it's short a spark conversation. The menu here has a little something for everyone. There's the regular loaded fries and wings, salads, and a nice election burgers. We ordered the Philly Salad and the Very Summer Salad with a side order of fries. They make their own ranch, and it is good. I will say they don't seem to skim on salad ingredients either - - the Philly salad was covered with shaved beef, and my berry salad had a lot of chicken and tons of blue cheese. The fries were delicious - - slightly seasoned and crispy. This place is clearly dog friendly. In fact the day we went there was a sweet Pitbull named Daisy who literally hopped up on a bar stool and sat there like a little angel the entire time. The bar had a dog full of water that they sat down on the counter next to her owner's beer. They also have dog biscuits to give. It made my day to see that sweet little dog hanging at the bar having a treat. This really is kind of a spot that feels like it's probably the hangout spot of many people.

Cocktails were made well, I'd come back and try others. Our friends suggested The Hudson which worked for me, it's been sitting on my list for a while. Bar food was pretty good. Next time I'll try a burger since people like them a lot in reviews, and I love a good burger. This visit we had the carne asada cheesesteak with some onion rings and boneless wings. Both items were good. I think for me, 4 stars seems right since there's an element of having to order at the bar and then come back up if anything is needed. Making it feel somewhat self service but I'm sure we tipped like full service. And at first we were trying to figure out the menu, where to order, and apparently we had a learning curve that night. Brains were tired. We sat outside with the misters at night. That was totally fine. It wasn't one of the nasty hot days.
