I was cruising down US-41 when Byrd's caught my eye! I've always been a fan of Nashville style hot chicken, so I thought I'd give this place a shot. The food was great! I got the classic chicken sandwich, with a side of fries and coleslaw. The batter was crispy, chicken juicy, and the bun pillowy soft. A filling and ... delicious $14 meal. Medium heat level was fairly tame, next time I'll get Hot. Read More

This place was great we were a group of nine. When we got there we were quite hungry and went in to put our order the service was fast the people were great and welcoming. Would definitely come back again. The only thing I would change is I ordered two hot sandwiches and they gave me medium. We were still happy so I ... can't take a start off. Just check your boxes before you leave. Read More

Got the #2 meal. Came with fries, pickles, potato salad, toast, and a side sauce. Went with the Supahot heat level. The chicken was crunchy and juicy. The Supahot is hot, but manageable. It has good flavor. Really like that it comes with potato salad. It's great. And don't skip the toast. It's super good. Overall, a ... great hot chicken place. I will come back. Read More

Crispy, Hot, Delicious chicken. Must Try. The toasted slice along with fried chicken was a first for us & blew us away. Chicken tasted great. Fries were nice & crispy as well. And Nuggets were excellent. We would definitely try again. Suggestion: Please open a shop in Toronto. You won't regret it :)
Benjamin Perkins
The service was prompt. The food was good overall. I would have liked more chicken on the sandwich. I liked all the spices and flavors. The spice level was appropriate for hot. Overall, I think that With places like this around why is anybody going to chick fillet across the street. This food is way better
