To start, got the orange pepper wet wings & the picante chicken sandwich. The sandwich was delicious & the perfect level of spice, but could've used sauce. Too bad the sauces cost $2 each, biggest letdown of the experience. The wings were average & pretty overpriced. After, we were still hungry & got the 2 pc chili chicken with cornbread. The cornbread was fantastic, with the blend of the apple honey & cheddar working better than expected. The chili chicken was the star of the show, with a very unique flavor & crust that lacked no crunch. Water tasted quite strange after indulging in the chili chicken. Good experience. but didn't live up to all the hype on social media.

The best fried chicken I have ever had in my life!!Just got the fried chicken sandwich the chiliOne. It was amazing, hands down the best fried chicken sandwich I have ever had. Can not wait to come back for a third time. If I was a millionaire I would come here at least once a month.

The spicy chicken was a revelation! The chicken was very crispy, perfect level of spice enough to notice it but won't overpower the flavors, the meat was super juicy and tender. A very refined and overall great execution of a fusion style take on fried chicken. The sides were good too but the star is definitely the chicken.I must however warn people to not order the extra spicy unless you are extremely spice tolerant. Seriously, we thought we could handle but it did not go well.It was borderline painful for me and my buddy who is very good at taking his spicy foods was struggling. It gave us both heartburn but again it's literally advertised as such and they were not joking. The normal wings are amazing and delicious and if you just want a good experience grab that instead.The sides were mostly very good, I recommend the Yukon potato salad and the sesame beans especially.
I’ve ordered take out twice and it was the best chicken I’ve tasted, juicy, crunchy, plump and steaming hot (always ordered the chili oil). The third and fourth was consistently disappointing, the chicken got smaller and it was over cooked and not so juicy nor steaming hot.. :/

Pretty overhyped and it was rather disappointing. The chicken seemed to have been fried in stale/old oil because both the chili and salted egg chicken had a stale taste to them.

Absolutely perfect chili fried chicken. The Sichuan peppercorn flavor is incredible. The sides were all great, though I thought the dirty rice stood out from the crowd. If the chili fried chicken is too hot for you, at least get the soft serve with chili oil; the same oil as used in the chicken but only a small drizzle, and nicely balanced by the vanilla ice cream. Wonderful experience!

Very fun burgers and sandwiches aimed at tingling the senses. The spicy chicken sando is a southern style fried chicken patty smeared with mala sauce that gives it a numbing spicy taste, plus pickles, sandwiched between hokkaido milk bread. The slightly less spicy chicken burger is a classic fried chicken burger smeared with laoganma. Both were a manageable level of spicy and there’s just something so American about this mix of cuisine inspirations. The fried rice was alright, could be more oily with better rice but the szechuan pepper corns was a nice touch.
I heard a lot about this chicken and finally got to try the chili version. I found it very hard as in not crunchy but just hard and also very one note and not interesting on the chili flavor. It was also really greasy.The cornbread literally fell apart when you touched it. Making it very challenging to eat. The flavor was fine it was messy.I liked the flavors and textures of bean salad although it was a bit salty.My boyfriend had the oyster mushroom po boy which was good.I do like the atmosphere of the place. Is very well designed and I love the location for people watching.

I've not had this caliber fried chicken since my trip to the Amish country. Everything is masterfully prepared, the space is intelligently designed and even offers a bar if you'd like to grab a drink at the same time.Pricey, but for once the price is worth it for the level of skill on display here.
The chili chicken Sando is the best fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had, in a lifetime of many fried chicken sandwiches. And it’s not particularly close, the thing is incredible. Aside from that, they’re one of the best places around in general and do everything well.

Their chili chicken sando is possibly the best chicken sandwich I’ve ever had, and if not the best definitely the most unique and interesting. It is my new comfort food and is truly so creative. I don’t like cornbread often times but their cornbread is incredible. The only thing is didn’t love was the salted egg chicken, it was a little gamey, but everything else including the non-alcoholic beer is wonderful. If there is one place I am taking my family when they visit it is here.
