Every Monday, I come here for lunch/dinner break. The Nashville hot tender box is where it's at. Really nice spice. The tenders are hands down some of the best I've had. The portion of fries is the perfect amount. Price is great. Absolutely worth it. I can't gush enough about this place. I can't. Keep up the killer work.

Best fried chicken I've had in the Tampa bay area so far. The cook the chicken absolutely perfectly, not too greasy, and not dry either. The seasoning gives the meat an incredible flavor. Even the fries are better than most places you'll go to. It's an all or nothing level of heat, you either get no spicy or very spicy so keep that in mind. They also don't sell alcohol here, and don't provide water cups (only bottles for purchase). It can get a little warm in the inside seating, but they have outdoor tables as well that are cooler with the air flow. Will definitely come back many more times.

I'm not a fan of fried chicken. This place however is amazing. The Nashville hot chicken is juice, spicy and full of flavor. Get a sandwich or the tenders, which come with 2 slices of bread anyways. The fries are crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. I've heard the Mac and cheese is also fantastic. I particularly love the greens though which are too notch. If there's a line when you come, stand in it. It's worth it.

This place has some REALLY tasty chicken! It was my first time there Saturday, we went as a group... everyone loved it! I have two 12 year old boys and the chicken was a little spicy for them they still loved every bite! I'm a Mac and cheese fan, so I had to try that as well...it was good. The hush puppies had a different taste, a little jalapeno I think. They were quite yummy! I recommend this place. Must Try!!!I had the Nashville hot sandwich, my son had the dirty bird sandwich.

When I first tried this place, I thought they had the best chicken tenders I ever tasted. I would drive all the way from St. Pete to Eat at this place. The chicken had that perfect amount of crunch and juiciness you look for in a chicken tender. The fries are really good as well. Unfortunately, the quality has been lacking ever since they started to only do takeout. The last few times I have been the chicken has been very soggy and chewy. Also the fries taste like they have been sitting under a heat lamp. Each time the quality has just gotten worse and worse. Definitely not what it use to be. I’ve recommended this place to multiple people in the past and I can no longer do that in good faith.

Oh my!!! This place is so good. I've had the King Mac every time I have visited this establishment. My wife has also had the King Mac but she switches out the chicken for the fried catfish. Which she says "Damn that's good." I absolutely love there chicken there staff. I'll keep on coming back over and over again every time I'm in the Seminole heights area.

This is an absolute must stop if you are in Tampa. I visit here often and never miss an opportunity to indulge in some of the best tenders I’ve ever had. The chicken is fresh and made fresh to order. Also the sides are absolutely amazing. We met Phil who I believe is the kitchen manager, he knew exactly what customer service is. Well done man! See you next time!

Thank god for takeout during this quarantine! I've been looking at this place for awhile now and decided to pick up lunch for the fam on Sunday. Process was super easy and straightforward! You order and pay online, receive a text when it's ready and they call your name outside the restaurant. Glad to see other people get takeout as well to support small businesses! Food was ready in less than 15 minutes and was all organized into different cardboard to go boxes.

This place was great, Random Saturday afternoon in Seminole Heights, stopped in to get some Nashville Hot Chicken Wings and it was great.. You do have to wait but waiting for good food is worth it!!! Can't wait for this place to be in Wesley Chapel

This is likely the best Nashville Hot Chicken you are going to find in Tampa. My wife and I are both addicted to it at this point.-Small joint with minimal seating and parking can be scarce. But neither of those things really matter.-Service is very quick. Even when they are swamped.-Pricing very affordable especially considering the portion size. For the standard platter, you get 3 hefty chicken tenders and a heaping helping of fries for under $10. Oh, and some pickles!-Both the chicken and the catfish are delicious. Try the hush puppies.Personally, I get the 2nd level of spiciness called Coop's Fury. It is perfect... if you can handle the heat!

This place is a must try for foodies in Tampa. Innovative. Big chicken tenders, moist with thick tasty red breading. Not crunchy. Very interesting flavored. Can be a little heavy. I almost ate there two days in a row and I don't live close. I've only tried the flavored, not spicy ones. Sauce for the fries and side pickles also good. A simple menu. Chicken and fries basically. Street-y, dive-y atomosphere adds to the overall experience.

Great chicken, great people, great atmosphere. The Nashville Hot Chicken Tenders bring the perfect balance of heat and flavor. Plus they are huge. They have both unseasoned chicken if you don't want the heat, and some extra hot if the Nashville don't have enough kick to it. 🔥🐔

A great choice in Seminole Heights, which is quickly making itself Foodie Central in Tampa. The sauce is amazing, and they have wings, although not in the way you ordinarily think of wings. But I won’t spoil it for you. Come try them out for yourself. Searing can be aLittle tight, but it’s worth it.

This Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich was incredible. First off, it was 2 sandwiches - no joke. Two top buns and two bottoms and HUGE flavor packed pieces of chicken in between. The slaw on the sandwich was perfect. I opted for greens instead of the fries and they were some of the best collards I've had in my life. I had never tried this place until now but I'll be back. Oh, also during the COVID times, I can tell you that they are very careful and clean when handling your food. A++
