Definitely go with the Hot. Recommend getting here early, for they do run out of chicken regularly. All meals come with Mac and Slaw . Well priced and cozy atmosphere .

Harrison Johnson

I'm a mild guy, plenty spicy for me and I like spicy . The hot is hot. ???? ???? ???? love that the ranch and sweet tea are free, also delicious

Crystal Davis

Prepare to wait if you don't call ahead. Totally worth the wait. I ordered the 5 piece wing meal, 3 hot & 2 holy sauce. The hot sauce was plenty hot but the holy, YoWzEr look out!

Karthik Raman

The 'Holy' was really hot. Flavorful and spicy like in Nashville. The sweet tea was just the right level of sweet. Not a long wait on a Thursday afternoon. Awesome service and great social mission!

Warm all white chicken , grab a little ranch dressing from the condiments area and make a sandwich with a little coleslaw , some breast meat and some ranch and the white bread ..

Columbus, this is as close to Nashville Hot Chicken you can get. Get there early and follow them on social media to get a play by play of how many pieces they have left. It goes quickly.

Brian Hart

The fried chicken is FANTASTIC - always juicy and properly seasoned/spiced, and they definitely sprinkle a little crack in there. Also, try the banana pudding whether you're a banana fan or not.

I have had the chicken sandwich they make from their food truck , but bought a whole chicken from this location. Delicious! And worth the line to order!

Katie Jaspers

Loved everything I had. The chicken is phenomenal; the mac and cheese is to die for. Great service, even during peak times.

Drew Wolf

Hot Chicken Takeover is everything and more! I had the sandwich was the perfect combination hot and sweet, but be careful because the hot is hot!

Jermaine

I recommend the wings and waffles ... May be the best macaroni and cheese I've ever had

Mickey Hawk

'Warm' bone-in chicken breast , Mac and slaw , with a Boylan's Diet Cola. Mmmm.

Christopher Samons

I get a waffle from Taste of Belgium, put the Warm fried chicken over it and smother it in maple syrup !

Maddy Liautaud

Sandwich is messy and hard to eat. If you get a meal, eat your mac n cheese quick while it's hot. "Warm" isn't very hot so go for "hot" if you're rly looking for a kick.

Ezra Katz

Best fried chicken in Columbus. Nashville hot . Make sure to get lots of ranch.

Gay Lynne

Chicken meal... Mac and cheese plus cole slaw !! Order it "warm". Your lips won't burn too bad!!

Justin

The meals come with bread and slaw , so even if you don't order a sandwich , you can still make one

Anna Hider

Worth the wait!!!! Get the banana pudding . You might not think you want it, but you do.

Mandy Schill

Chicken good. Medium quite spicy . Sweet tea included. Very disorganized, 3rd in line but took longer than people 12th, kept misplacing orders. Many early in line had to ask after 30min waiting.

Jim Organ

The Holy $@S# chicken breast is not too spicy but tender and tasty!

Michael Zickefoose

The hot chicken sandwich is where it’s at!
