Hot Chicken Takeover is a popular chicken restaurant known for its Unholy Heat meal, which many claim can cure the common cold. The waffle fries are outstanding, and the $10 Monday-Wednesday lunch special is highly recommended. The staff at all locations in Columbus has been consistently friendly and welcoming, ensuring a pleasant dining experience. The food is always fresh and cooked to order, with a focus on delicious, spicy options. However, visitors should be cautious, as the heat level is often hotter than expected. The restaurant has undergone a recent series of menu changes, but the quality of food remains excellent.
Parking can be a challenge, as the availability of free spaces is limited, and navigating the lot can be difficult for larger vehicles. Paid street parking on Grandview Ave is available but often filled. Despite these challenges, customers have praised the overall experience, with many enjoying items like the 4 drum meal and the Yo Mama's chicken sandwich with honey BBQ. The sweet tea and banana pudding have also received positive mentions, making it a favorite spot for many.
