"This Nashville-style hot chicken spot used to live in the Twitter building in SF before moving to Uptown Oakland in April 2022. We’re just grateful we can still get our hands on their sandwiches, which are a fantastic, nose-running power-up we come back to like it's an unskippable part of our weekly routine. The juicy chicken breast has a light breading that stays crisp under a mountain of coleslaw and creamy comeback sauce that oozes out with every bite. There are five spice levels that you can opt for based on personal preference, from mild to burnin—finish one of those and you’ll end up on the restaurant’s Burnin Wall of Fame, a title well worth bragging about. " - julia chen 1, lani conway
