Reviewers rave about the Hot Chicken, calling it a must-order standout. The overall vibe is warm, comforting, and unpretentiously satisfying.
“This is their take on hot chicken, where pulled chicken is smothered in the surplus gravy that diners had from their ragu along with some green peas just to make it healthy. Here, they take it one step further by frying the chicken and replacing the bread with a full-on grilled cheese sandwich.”
