We ordered the oxtail and half chicken meal. First off, the chicken was phenomenal — perfectly crispy and seasoned just right. What fell short for me were the sides: the greens tasted like they came straight out of a can, and while the macaroni and cheese was decent, it lacked that soulful, homemade touch. The oxtail was tender and well-cooked, but I expected a bit more depth of flavor. Overall, the food was pretty good.
The service, however, was very underwhelming. I was sitting at the bar (which was empty, mind you) waiting for my boyfriend to come out of the bathroom, when the owner — I believe — told me I couldn’t sit there and had to go back to the front, even though I had just spent $50 at the restaurant. It came across as extremely petty.
Being from Memphis, TN, I was genuinely excited to find this spot and was hoping for that warm, Southern hospitality that feels like home. Unfortunately, I didn’t feel appreciated as a customer. While the food was good (though not the best I’ve had), I won’t be returning. It’s a shame, because the music and was great — but I can’t support a place that doesn’t seem to value its core customer base.

As an Atlanta native, the moment I walked in, I knew this place was legit. Dope atmosphere....the art, music, bar, people, etc. The fried chicken, collar greens, and okra were on point. Ordered a couple drinks and they were good too. Our server was Chavez and she was awesome the whole way through. She sat us and was super friendly. She even introduced us to the owner right before we left and she was a sweetheart too. Anytime I'm in Denver, I'll be sure to swing by!! 5 stars!!!!

Today we catered Blazing Chicken Shack for an event and the food was 10/10. Everything was hot and delicious. I can tell the food was made with love and everyone enjoyed it! Blessings!

Oxtail plate is the same price ($20+) as the Jamaican restaurants with half the servings. I have 2.5 oxtails on this plate and they’re not tender. I wouldn’t buy again. However, I’ve had their fried catfish in the past and when I say it’s good. It’s GOOD coming from a picky eater. THATS their specialty in my opinion. The sides are definitely decent for Denver and they’re a decent size, you’ll be full for sure. Cornbread is decent and they give a big cut. I will be coming back for sure just not for oxtails.
