Been here multiple times. Food is really good. Wish they had a bigger kitchen or more people in the back as sometimes it takes awhile for the food to be ready due to a combination of diners and delivery orders. The people who work here are super cool. The vibe of this place is awesome. Just the wait time is my only issue. Will make it 5 stars if they can get the wait time reduced by either reorganizing the kitchen or having more people in the back.

A small restaurant tucked away in a small shopping center. Walked in but we weren't acknowledged. Not sure if they didn't noticed us and the family that walked in though since they did say hi to others that walked in about 15 minutes after us. We ordered our food and they took our order and the wait was about 30 minutes for only us and the one other family being there. The food was great super good made up for the wait. They taste better then famous daves. We got medium & hot. The hot is hotter than famous daves hottest flavor. I would definitely come in again if I'm in the city. I think the only thing is they need friendly customer service or at least look happy when someone places an order. They have a little table to play while you wait for food to.

I absolutely love Hot Motha Clucker. This place is aptly named because their chicken can pack some heat depending on your spice level. I love the Nashville Fry Up which comes with two chicken strips, fries, and a drink. Normally, I'm more of a medium or hot kinda guy when it comes to Nashville hot chicken. Not here. Give me that mild, which still brings plenty of heat. The chicken is not just spicy but very flavor and always juicy. These are big thick strips of all white meat chicken. The fries are crispy, and I dunk everything in their house ranch. This is my favorite hot chicken place in Ventura County, but be careful because it is hot!

Lunch was delicious! Was yelping around and found this place, came around 3:30 on a Sunday and place was dead (which was a good thing for us lol) The aesthetic of this place was on point . I'm sure it's popping during happy hour . I got the slider duo and it was very good . The sauce it comes with is the main character! Bomb ! My only complaint was when we were looking for a seat 80% of the tables were dirty . For being empty I would have expect the tables to atleast be clean but other than that it was a good experience. Grade : A

This Food was SO GOOD!!! I danced in my seat at every bite! I ordered the chefs special which is a grilled cheese with a chopped tender and I opted for medium heat *chefs kiss* & my husband ordered the filthy fries and again BOMB! I traded my fries for the fried pickles and they were crispy and seasoned so well! I even bought a second sandwich to go because I'm greedy and they were delicious! I am so sad they are not in Texas but I will be back and make SURE to stop again!

Delicious nashville hot chicken spot in TO with great vibes!! They have daily happy hour deals and a cool set up for games including jenga, shuffleboard and beer pong. Food was good - I liked that they had different variations/options and the ability to customize spice. Only downside was that the portions were a little small for the price, but food was delicious nonetheless. Would definitely return and tell my fellow hot chicken lovers!!

Randomly found this place after a Google search for chicken. Super surprised that nobody was here on a Saturday evening but it was good for us. The chicken is spicy, no matter the level but that's too be expected at a hot chicken restaurant. Medium was even too hot for us and I thought it we liked spicy. The fries are sooooo good and even have spicy seasoning on them. The sliders were the perfect size and delicious. We would definitely come back and try more!

Great comfort food option overall! The inside is small but decorated very well, which makes it inviting. I went in the middle of the day so the bar area and game section were not busy, but I think the atmosphere has potential later hours in the evening. The service was good! It is a fast casual type of spot, but the employee working at the time answered some questions I had and took time to talk to me while I was waiting. On that note, I think there was only one cook during lunch time. And it did take time for my food to come out, also assuming it is fresh and made to order.

I'm all about finding a good tender place, so I was super excited to hear about this restaurant. I didn't realize I had passed this place many times without realizing it was even here. First off, love the vibe of the restaurant. While waiting for our food, we had a lot of fun playing shuffleboard. Feels like it would be a good place to come for dinner, grab a beer, and play the game. The chicken sandwich was delicious! The chicken was so juicy with the perfect spice level. Combined with the soft bread and tasty sauce, it was exactly what a chicken sandwich should be. Fries could use a bit more seasoning, but the seasoning is a great compliment to the fries. And they give you a boatload of fries! We also grabbed a chicken tender order, and we found the typical spice levels to be pretty accurate. The tenders are also surprisingly large, so a good amount of quality chicken for the money. Compared to the sandwich, even though it's good, I'd rather order just the tender meal - feels like a better bang for your buck. Overall, I was super pleased with the experience here and am happy to have found a new, good chicken tender place!

Tried their #1 original combo and their Nashville tenders a la carte. Got Medium spiciness level for both. For me, the heat was perfect. It's spicy enough but not torturous. Chicken is still juice and seasoning is yummy too. The toasted bread is well-buttered and toasted. The fries are perfect thickness and crispiness. Service was great. Food came out in reasonable time and perfect temperature. Restaurant is clean and plenty parking outside.
