Parking: I'm from California, I was just staying in asheville for a few days. This place was better than anything in the downtown areas ive had.

Chicken tasted great; had tenders and waffles. Spice level: rockys hot. FANTASTIC heat. Waffle tasted fine, nothing too special. Got fries as well, cooked nicely, a bit overly salted for my taste but not a deal breaker.

Fast service despite it being decently busy. Def recommend people check...

Delicious fried chicken. One chicken tender is nearly the size of a small chicken breast - they are HUGE! I can only eat one.

The service was great. We always eat on the covered patio, it’s so pleasant out there.

The sides are alright - but definitely not amazing like the chicken.

Great restaurant! Often the first place I take folks when they are visiting from outta town. Anything with the honey mild sauce is amazing and more than enough spice for me. Know for amazing fried chicken, but also excellent grilled chicken as well.
