Chicken Fire

Chicken Fire is FIREEEE!!! The very first day I arrived, I was greeted immediately by Kevin with genuinity, enthusiasm, and love. He was open to answering any questions and answered respectfully. The music is always a vibe just like every worker. The chicken is literally the best chicken I have ever had! It's juicy, tender, perfectly seasoned and delicious. My family and I came every day after and the only downfall is that they are closed Mondays and Tuesdays! I highly recommend to everyone!!

I get the Fire Box every time and it's a great deal. The seasoning is sooooo good and the food is ready quickly. Coleslaw is fresh and crunchy. Fries are perfectly seasoned and chicken is always hot and tender. It's fantastic ❤️❤️

Kevin, our server, was incredibly informative about the menu and truly a great asset to the company! The food was absolutely delicious, and I would highly recommend dining here. Just keep in mind that their spice level is a bit more intense than other places — so plan accordingly. Overall, a fantastic experience!

Traveling from Iowa, we are fans of daves hot chicken and decided to check this place out. Extremely welcoming when entering, David said he's our host and broke down the menu, the food was quick and hot. And it was delicious, I personally believe its a lot more fresh and flavorful than daves. Great place, great experience.

SO AMAZING!! Kevin was a star. Chicken fire has always been amazing, and I took my boyfriend for the first time today. We live out of town, and he says he wants to move to Orlando just to eat this everyday. An Orlando staple. 1000/10 recommend !

Visited Chicken Fire after reading all the great reviews. I enjoyed my meal, it was very tasty and the Customer service was AWESOME, I thought that the chicken sandwich should have two tenders it was way more bread than chicken. I had the Mild chicken and it had the right amount of heat, delicious.Also I liked the music, but it was really LOUD! Maybe bringing down the volume a couple of clicks makes it easier to communicate and talk. With that said I highly recommend and look forward to going back.Thank you!

First time trying and will definitely return. Purchased the Fire Box and it was great. Portions were good, taste was great, not unbearably spicy. Employees were very kind, respectful, and one gentleman in particular took the time to walk to everyones table and check on them. I didn't get his name but he was very kind. He also said he liked my name so that helps a lot 😂. Only downside is this location does not have enough seating for when it gets busy and that's a sign that it is great.

They are not lying, that hot x is fire!!! That is some good spicy chicken. We like spicy and the medium was hot! The food is delicious and the fries are really good! You need to come here for some hot chicken!! Service is good and the soul sauce is great too. All around a great place!

from dade county tried this for the first time i got hot and let me tell you them tenders were hot as hell lol fries were good. My wife got mild and that was really good but from the start customer service was great definitely recommend!!

O M G!!! I am a native Floridian... I actually grew up 2 miles away from this location on E. Colonial Dr.. a friend wanted to go here for her birthday so I said OK a new experience for both of us! I ordered the kids box so I could try it.... The sauce I picked was no heat. BEST CHICKEN I'VE EVER HAD IN ORLANDO!!!! Seriously, the flavor the crunchy texture. Absolutely the best chicken in Orlando Orlando. !!! I was not a fan of the coleslaw. It's more on the vinegar side. I like mine on the sweet side. Perhaps they could offer for both kinds.! as far as drinks there are no cups or ice. You just have to get a drink out of the cooler and honestly it must've been restocked recently because the Coke zero wasn't very cold.. doesn't matter doesn't affect my rating of a perfect 10 out of 10 because the food is off the hook. I can't wait to go back. It's very small inside no real decor just a painting on the wall and a few tables and metal chairs. Doesn't matter it is worth the wait and or get it to go DoorDash was constantly in this place.!! Like I said, I can't wait to go back .

I ordered the Hot Box with salted fries, and it was quite tasty! I appreciated having the option to choose between seasoned or just salted fries. The portion size was generous, though I think the breading could have been a bit better, and the fries could have used more salt. Service was quick and there was plenty of seating. The decor wasn't anything special.

I heard from the Florida locals that Chicken Fire is the place to go for hot and spicy chicken. This place did not disappoint at all! It's a small restaurant with limited seating, so you can either grab a table inside or take your food to go. The way you order is via the kiosks at the front and you have the ability to customize or add any modifications your order as needed. I came roughly an hour before closing on a weekday so it only took a few minutes to get our food. Now, even though we did specify in our slider box that both sliders should have different heat levels, it did seem like both sliders had the same medium level while one should have been at a hot level. The sliders themselves are served on brioche buns which I totally love and with pickles, a signature sauce and coleslaw. It's a little messy to eat due to the toppings and the sauce spilling out, but if you're ok with that it shouldn't matter too much. The chicken is massive so even though it's called a slider, it actually is a pretty sizable sandwich. The meat is cooked perfectly and it remains juicy without feeling dry. The heat preparation is a dry seasoning so you can really see the vibrant red color based on the heat level you choose. If you have good spice tolerance, you should actually be fine with medium level or up if you dare! I highly recommend coming here for great chicken, crispy fries and a good time to laugh with your loved ones about handling the spice!

First time here today with my friend and we were pleasantly surprised. These chicken tenders are HUGE. Fries were perfectly seasoned. I think they should offer a secret sauce that is more salty (like Magoo dip), but the chicken quality was great. Service was TOP NOTCH, and they were so helpful with helping us navigate the menu. Its def a mom and pop vibe; andvery comfortable.

What a gem of a restaurant in the heart of the colonial mall area. They serve hot chicken in three different options and can vary the spice level to your desire (5 Choices). Food is cooked to order so it can take some time when it's busy. Quality and taste were very good. Seating can be limited, so try to avoid peak hours. Overall would come back.

Quick, friendly, SPICY I'm not sharing anything other people haven't already said, but I have to add that Chicken Fire has never disappointed. Sometimes it can take awhile for the food to be ready, but I appreciate that my food comes out hot and tasty. The prices are bit high for the amount of food you get, but I'm usually good with a Kid Box because the spice hits hard. Interior is minimal with some limited seating. This is more of a grab and go spot.

I got a kids box here and it was plenty of food for me for a good price. The food was out quickly, and it was delicious. I like heat but was not feeling it that day so I got meak and it was perfectly described as a "squeak of heat." The seasoning on the fries was perfect and I really enjoyed the coleslaw

Chicken Fire is no joke as fire is in the name. We came and ordered two hot boxes and a kids box. So happy I opted for the kids box as it was a giant piece of chicken and fries still. The seasoning they add to their crinkle fries is delicious and sweet. The chicken spice levels vary I ordered the soulful which was sweet and nothing spicy at all. The other two boxes were medium and hot spicy levels. Which definitely had some heat to them. Service is friendly and helpful. You order at the kiosk and all food comes out Togo style.

Is Chicken Fire fancy? No. Does it need to be? Also, no. Does Chicken Fire serve delicious, juicy, and tender chicken, you bet your chicken butt it does. The service is limited as you order for yourself on a tablet device but there is someone behind the counter to help if needed. The inside reminds me of greasy spoon you would see in Chicago, plain and unassuming. The chicken is packed with flavor and potentially packed with pure lava. Think Minecraft Movie lava chicken. You can pick your spice level and I highly recommend going a level below where your ego thinks you want to order. A member of my party who loves super spicy food and had no problems doing the Hit Ones challenge or the one chip challenge only made it through half of the chicken sandwich and was sweating profusely. We saved the other half I thought if I had it on salad with ranch it would tone it down. I was mistaken. It somehow still engulfed my mouth in a tingling burn. Only order the hottest sauce if your mouth is immune to heat. Don't let that discourage you from going though, like I said super tasty and juicy chicken just be wary of the heat.

Tried Chicken Guy and went with the mild chicken burger meal that comes with fries. Don't let the prices intimidate you--you really get your money's worth here. The chicken was super flavorful and juicy, not dry at all, and the fries were seasoned perfectly. Their signature Soul Sauce tied everything together and added a nice kick of flavor. Overall, a solid meal and I'd definitely come back!

I love me some Chicken Fire! This is a spot that my coworkers and I go to at least once a week for some delicious chicken tenders! They have various different levels of heat that are hotter than what your typical mild heat would be! For myself personally I get the kid box which is one jumbo chicken tenders with fries and a side of ranch at meek level heat. Meek has just enough kick where the food is still flavorful! Sometimes when I'm feeling brave I will get the hot x but that's something I can only have a few bites of. The team here is always so friendly and welcoming and overall just great people to chat to while waiting for food. If you haven't tried this place out you are for sure missing out!

Chicken Fire is an excellent example of not need a large menu to be a successful business! They have a handful of items on their menu and they do them all extremely well! From the moment I walked in, I was treated with great hospitality! The team was very friendly and made me feel very welcomed. The restaurant is a "hole in the wall" a small space with big personality! I got the fries with the signature Soulful sauce. By far the best fries in Orlando! They were crinkle cut and perfectly crispy while having a soft interior. The seasoning on them reminded me of VooDoo chips. Their Soulful dipping sauce was like a more flavorful Kanes sauce! I'll definitely be back!

Food always fresh to order! Wait time can be interesting at times but the food is great with kind service !

The food is Ok, my son love it, he likes spicy. For me and my wife is not that good, to much seasoning. The place is ok (even cheaper regular fast food place) less fancy than McDonalds, don't expect to much a fancy place. Now the service is another level, Naia is amazing, very nice and very interactive. If you are a person that likes to eat only healthy food, and don't cheat meal, don't come

Wow, so good! If you like fried chicken tenders this is the place for you! Several heat levels for everyone. The tenders were big, plump, juicy, and freshly fried to order. The batter was tasty and crunchy. The hot box comes with seasoned fries or plain salted, and coleslaw which was delicious! Fresh and crunchy and perfectly seasoned! Also, some bread to soak up the chicken juices and 2 pickle slices that were crisp and refreshing. The place itself is devoid of nice atmosphere but the staff was super friendly and efficient. Highly recommend!

Picked up some food from here, upon arriving it was very busy but my order was ready! My husband and I went to a park to eat the food but unfortunately they forgot the utensils and napkins (I requested them on the app) so it wasn't the most pleasant experience eating since we couldn't wipe our hands or eat the cole slaw since we didn't have utensils. The chicken was literally FIRE and tasted sooo good. The fries were perfectly seasoned and the sauce was AMAZING. I will say, a 2 oz sauce container is definitely not enough for 2 jumbo chicken tenders and fries, so next time I'll be getting another. Also- the bread was a little disappointing since it was just a piece of white bread all smushed on the bottom of my chicken box. Overall the food was delicious and we will be returning, I will just be checking my bag before leaving and getting 2 sauces.

A local gem that sets the standard for spicy fried chicken and french fries. The Munch Box is a delicious fried chicken slider served with coleslaw and pickles in a buttery brioche bun with some of the most amazing crinkled fries. However, the Hot Box, also 5 stars, is savory fried chicken with heaping amounts of coleslaw and pickles all on top of crispy crinkled fries. Just keep in mind that most non-fire eaters probably want to keep the heat level at meek or soulful.

Just stopped in for a quick bite. Tried the 2 hottest tenders. They were juicy. The hottest was spicy but it was too spicy and the taste wasnt great. Id recomend getring the Hot because the flavoe and taste was a good representation of good Nashville hot chicken.

I got the Munch Box with the MEDIUM heat. The chicken was cooked to perfection. And I was really happy the sandwich had a nice, small kick of heat to it (my spice tolerance is very high so other people might find it too spicy). The French fries had a really good amount of seasoning and were cooked well. The sauce was delicious and went well with the sandwich and fries. It is similar to Canes sauce! The fries had almost a slight BBQ taste to them. So good !! I ordered off of Uber Eats because I was visiting and didn't have a car. It took about 1hr & 30 minutes for the food to be delivered, which I think is a little too long. Also, if you're ordering to-go, I'd recommend putting the Cole slaw on the side. By the time it arrived, the bottom bun was very soggy and off putting. I could only imagine how much better it would be if the bun wasn't soggy. Overall, one of the best fried chicken sandwiches I've ever had! For the amount of food you get and the price, would recommend this to everyone!!

Everything is made to order so it does take some time but I can say it is well worth the time. I highly recommend the extra seasoned fries and the soul sauce. I had the hottest chicken that you can order. I can handle extreme spicy it was such a great flavor and had a nice kick but it could be spicer for me. My husband and their version of mild and he loved it. The place is smaller and seats are limited but well worth it. We will definitely go back and highly recommend.

I remember when this was a food truck at ala carte. I am not a fan of spicy or hot so I always skipped over their offerings. Years later they have a physical location and upon review I see they offer a "soul full" option which is all the seasoning and none of the heat. Sounded great so I gave it a shot. The restaurant is let say a well used space in a building that is not new. They apparently have some leaks in the ceiling as evidenced by the stained saggy drop ceiling. So ambiance is not real high. The staff however was great! Super friendly and helpful with ordering. (Ordering done on a tablet) but she was right there for any questions which was appreciated. The price is great too. I always like when you can get a decent meal for under $15. The food was great. I did the combo with fries and the fries had a seasoning on them which was pretty tasty. The person I was eating with said the fries reminded them a lot of the taco bell fries (I have never tried) and she enjoyed them. The Chicken was crispy outside and juicy inside and had some great flavor to it. I did the sandwich and next time I think I would pass on the bun as there was nothing remarkable about it. I think it sort of hid the great flavor of the chicken. The place was pretty busy for a late Saturday afternoon so I suspect there are many others who know how tasty this is. I recommend checking this place out if you are in the neighborhood.

If you ask me, Chicken Fire gives Raising Canes a million kicks in the pants. There's a reason why there's always a line to eat here, good luck finding a table inside. The tenders are always juicy and flavorful, with the crispy crunchy exterior. Their fries.. man, that bbq seasoning they add is fire (no pun intended). This is my spot for a cheat meal. There's honestly, nothing else like it in Orlando.

Chicken Fire is a local chicken spot over in the Colonial area that focuses on hot chicken sandwiches and tenders. If you're a fan of heat then this is the spot for you. This is more so a small chicken joint with limited seating especially considering the fact that seats fill quickly. The staff is very much friendly and they will give you a fair warning about the spice level of their chicken prior to you ordering. I opted for the mild chicken sandwich with fries. The sandwich is dressed very well. It's served on a bun with slaw and their own sauce. My first thought biting into it was the mild definitely has a bit of a punch to it. The slaw pairs very well to give it a freshness and cut into the spice. The sauce provides a necessary tang to the sandwich that I appreciated. The chicken is seasoned well and is very crispy. The fries have a bit of a different taste to it than I expected. They're crispy for sure but the seasoning on top is a bit sweet. This wasn't my favorite. The bottom line, very friendly and helpful staff and the food is high quality. There aren't a ton of places that offer the combination of high quality food. Highly recommend.

I had Chicken Fire saved for a while before I was finally able to visit. It is located off Colonial in a strip mall with plentiful, yet slightly difficult parking. Walking in there are two iPads to order from and a few tables. There was not much in the way of decor inside, it almost seemed like a takeout only restaurant. Everything is served in a brown paper box. I chose to get a box which was fries on the bottom, chopped hot chicken (I chose mild which had some heat), coleslaw, sauce and pickles. It was good. Definitely very spicy and I typically do medium but mild was enough here. Overall it was good, but not significantly better than other hot chicken locations. It was just spicier than them.

The absolute best! The staff is so friendly and welcoming and always ready to answer any questions you may have. The tender box is such a great deal you get so much food and I love the pickles. It can get a little hot and crowded inside so we usually take it to go and then have a picnic lunch outside at a nearby park or something!

I walked in and was greeted immediately and felt very welcomed. The place is very small but there's tables to dine in if you want to. I ordered the chicken "hot box" tender box which comes with two very big tenders, fries, bread, slaw and a sauce for dipping. The chicken was very perfectly breaded. I got the soulful seasoning and I liked it a lot.

Naia is super duper nice! She was so fun and attentive! Im surprised that they dont have tipping. She gave all the information we needed and beyond! Amazing customer service! The chicken: f a n t a s t i c!!!!! Very spicy Im used to it so I got medium and hot! Delicious! Real chicken! Their fries have a bbq seasoning which im not a fan but Naia let me try before ordering ! What a great place and great vibes! Ps. this is more of a take out restaurant Highly recommended!

LOCAL REVIEW: I have yet to find a fried chicken place as good as Chicken Fire. Their chicken is crispy, juicy, and their seasoning blend is my favorite. For me, I notice flavors of Cajun and mesquite. Their Buttermilk Coleslaw also is the perfect addition to their spicy chicken. Location-wise, it's located in a grocery store plaza with free parking lot so that's always a plus for me! Sometimes the traffic can be overwhelming on East Colonial, but I don't find it to be a deterrent to make a visit. There is indoor seating with a nice "people watching bar" along the window. I'm not going to knock off a star, but the bathroom is a bit dirty with a wobbly toilet seat, so I'd avoid that if you can help it.

Please keep in mind it's called chicken fire for a reason! Made a rookie mistake and went medium & hot my first go around and WOW I love spicy but this heat sent me to the firey pits of hell. It was that can't stop eating good but also can't breathe. Now that I've been there, done that - my favorite recommendation is the slider box in the soulful flavor and mild flavor. Mild will still kick you in the pants but without the tears! It's counter style service and the servers are always extremely friendly!

The food here is incredible! I heard a lot about this place from my friends at work. We tried it and it definitely lives up to the hype! The fries alone are worth going for. Be warned, their spice levels are actually SPICY. I got the mild and loved mine, but my husband got the medium and was shocked by how hot it actually was. Its the kind of spice that builds over time. We will be going again very soon!

Holy Wow! The hype for this place has been around forever and I kept forgetting to try it. Well.. last weekend, I did it and I have already slapped myself for not going sooner. Literally the BEST chicken sandwich I ever had and THE BEST fries. I got a hot box which was two sliders but these were legit sandwiches.. not little sliders. I got the mild and it was hot like a perfect tingle of heat. I'm not a wuss but I'm not trying to pay for punishment, ya know?! The sandwich checked all the boxes. Crispy, juicy, flavorful, amazing pickles, crunchy coleslaw, soft bun. Like .. perfect. I was trying to eat it in the car and it was drippy and yummy and I needed like 10 napkins but I love a messy meal if it's delish. That adds to the immersive experience. The fries though.. they sprinkled them with some Smokey sweet fairy dust that was out of this world. I can't wait to go back and take the fam. You guys really are worth the hype.

Best chicken sandwiches I've ever had! It's very affordable, their service is great and the food is so tasty! Be mindful with the level of spice you choose, it gets very spicy the fries are good too, maybe a little too much spice, but tasty. The food in general is very rich, so be careful the day after

Amazing amazing!!! We live in polk county and Specifically saved this for a lunch date!! Totally worth the hour and 20 min drive!! Price , flavor, texture, portion sizes 100% on point... BUT the most important part was the customer service! The cashier, Aniya was amazing. Within 10 seconds she was able to identify me and my wife's heat tolerance and suggested the perfect combo that works best for us!! Did not disappoint.. furthermore it was so hot today we decided to eat in our cars and she physically went to our car to check on us and ask if everything was good......Who does that?!?! That's awesome hope she gets a big raise.

Not sure how many times I've been here, but it's very consistent. Kiosk only ordering. Every time I come through it's busy with people waiting to get their spicy chicken fix. Today was just a normal spice level for me which is the medium(very hot) spicy. Remember they do take it to another level so be prepared to melt your mouth if you get anything higher than medium. I have done all their spice levels in the past and you do have to sign a waiver to eat them. It's not for the faint of heart. There is a euphoria you will feel with extra spicy food:) The restaurant is pretty small with only a few tables, but most people are in and out pretty quick so you should be able sit and eat. They automatically serve it in to-go containers so you are ready to go either way. Remember too, the chicken is made to order, so there is a little bit of a wait time about 10-15 minute's depending on how much you order. Chicken is expertly fried, seasoned and juicy. A few times I've been here the breading was a little thick, but for almost all of my visits it's been just right. Pro tip: Order an extra tender... at least for me, I like to eat 2 tenders there, and take the extra one home for a late night snack:) Crinkle cut fries are my favorite fries and the sweet and salty spice blend is delicious. I always order extra seasoning on the fries, because why not. Love this place. Still my favorite hot chicken spot in Orlando!

I love chicken fire, and I am always craving it when I'm not in Orlando. The portions and the flavor are great. I always do takeout, so I can't speak to the service or ambiance here. My go-to is the hot box. The hot box comes with 2 big tenders, fries, 2 pickle slices, coleslaw, sauce, and a slice of bread. I like that the coleslaw is light, and I especially like the seasoning on the fries. The chicken tenders are huge, and they're cooked well. The bread is ok. It's just a standard slice of white bread. You can adjust what level of spice you would like on your food when you order. I have a very high spice tolerance, but I would recommend a very low spice level because it's the kind of spiciness that blocks out all other flavors. If it's too spicy, you will miss out on the actual flavor of the food rather than the spice enhancing it. Overall, this is a great spot that consistently serves good food. I recommend it.

The value is incredible! The amount of food you get for the price is amazing. The staff at the front gave us a good breakdown of the different food options. They call you and text you when your food is ready which is nice. Everything is all packaged to go when it comes out. It's pretty hot and cramped in the restaurant though. The chicken is great quality. The spicy levels are pretty intense, so even meek/mild is very spicy! Everything came out hot. The fried, pickles, coleslaw, and bread was great too. Only reason I would give 4 stars is because I don't love super spicy food. If you are into very spicy food and hot chicken, this is a definite 5 star.

Best chicken ever! It's the juiciest, most flavorful chicken we've ever had! Our table order meak, mild, and medium spice levels. The fries are so crispy on the outside, but soft and fluffy on the inside, served with tons of seasoning. We loved the pickles and coleslaw too! I even loved how you just walk in and order on a tiny kiosk. Couple of tables for dine in, but your food is packaged to go

I absolutely love their mild chicken tenders. They are packed with flavor, juicy and it has that crunch on the outside. The fries are seasoned as well, which I love. I love to get honey as well, makes the chicken 10x better. I was upset that I opted out for pickles and there was a pickle right on the chicken (the pickle was thrown off as soon as I saw it because I absolutely hate pickles, the smell and the taste). The pickle kind of ruined it for me, I had to literally douse the chicken in honey. Overall I love this location, the staff is always friendly. I wish there was more seating because there are times where it gets busy and the seating is limited to about 10 tables.

First time here. Service was a bit slow to get our food but it was hot and fresh. We ordered the meak munch box and medium munch box. Meak~ perfect for me as I don't like super hot or spicy Medium- holy Moly grab some milk ! For those who love super hot, this is for you ( not us ) lol! Fries were overly salty for me so this was a check off our list but not somewhere I'd come back too often. It made me sick to my stomach unfortunately.

This place is out of this world. Stopped in after hearing good things while in Orlando and glad we did. The people first and foremost, are incredibly sweet and very helpful. They made sure everyone in line knew their operation and process. You order on a screen and take a seat. Seating is hard to come by because this place rocks. We came in on a warm day in November and it was hot hot inside- they had fans running but AC was either broken or they don't have it- either way be prepared to takeout if necessary. For the food- hefty portions and super fresh. So so tasty! My husband normally gets a 3 level spice at chicken places and the 3 level here was far more spicy- so brace yourself!! The fries, the sauce, the chicken- all amazing. Highly recommend. We will be back!!

We ordered the medium because we love hot food, but this was hotter than a normal medium. They are delicious chicken tenders, just know that medium is a normal hot. At least in our experience. But the chicken is tender and crispy even with the heat added. I will come back but probably go mild. The honey is a must and must be ordered at .95 each. The Cole slaw is a nice cooling effect on the mouth. We loved the fries. The tenders are large enough to share. Waffle fries were great. There aren't many seats available and they had quite a few customers there for take-out.

I used to love this place when they opened a few years ago but I have gone less and less because they changed how spicy the food is. The last few times I've ordered from them, they have added sugar to their hot fries and hot box meal. It is such a disappointment that a place that really lived up to its name and had really good HOT chicken and fries decided to add sugar to their food without denoting it on the menu. My hot fries just taste like sugar. I can see more sugar than anything else on them. There is no spice and I ordered it medium, which is usually nice and spicy. It would be great if they created a NO SUGAR option when ordering.

Hubby and I were driving through Orlando around lunch time. He checked out his bookmarks and saw Chicken Fire, we immediately drove over. The ambiance was casual; order and grab a table type place. It was definitely the right vibe for a hot chicken place. Hubby ordered the munch box, hot. I ordered the hot box, mild. We both thought the chicken was amazing! Juicy, spicy, delicious! Mild was perfect for me, lots of flavor and a little spice. Hot is hubby's go-to so he enjoyed the burn. The soul sauce was creamy, so tasty with the fries as well as the chicken. Thick cut pickles, crispy fries, unique sweet coleslaw. All around a perfect meal. Chicken Fire served up one of the best hot chicken meals we've had outside of Nashville!

Best chicken spot in Orlando!! Flavorful chicken and fries. Customer service is always great. You can do to-go or dine in. Seating is limited so go early.

Okay y'all this has to be my favorite restaurant yet that I've visited in Orlando. So much so that I'm writing this review as I'm still eating. I just couldn't wait! I placed my order online and walked over to Colonial from Corinne to pick it up, which was very convenient as it was prime lunchtime and starting to get packed. They work quickly though! The place itself is kind of small and it's no secret that it's pretty warm in there. In other words, to go is probably your best bet. The staff member that greeted me was super friendly and welcoming. Typically, you'd order on the kiosks at the counter. I ordered the Slider Box. WOW! These things are huge. I could have probably settled with one and some fries, but they are amazing!! I got meek spice as I'm a bit of a spice wimp, but it was still very flavorful and has a slight kick. I also got a soulful chicken tender (no spice) and it was DELICIOUS, so crispy and juicy. I ordered a side of ranch to try and it's clearly homemade with the most amazing flavor and consistency. I'm now hooked on Chicken Fire and immediately texted my boyfriend to tell him we have to go back ASAP (and you should, too!). Can't wait to try the fries! I'd happily walk an hour again (and then some!) for this place!

I absolutely loved chicken fire! We came in on a late afternoon and the place was pretty packed (it's not that big). One of the employees behind the counter asked if it was our first time there and kind of went through the menu and suggested what we should try in levels of hotness/enjoyment. For ordering, you order through a kiosk, you enter your # and they call you and/or call out your name. I noticed this place gets a lot of To-go orders and I don't blame them! This place gets super warm! I ordered the mega sliders which comes with 2 so I could share with my boyfriend. To say the least, these were delicious! We got the medium level, and we both agreed we could go higher, but the savory ness and size of these were delicious. The sliders were packed with flavor and honestly one of the best I've had in a while. Will definitely be back, maybe to try the tenders and some fries while I'm at it!

The food was so good, it was flavorful, the spice was just right. The service was great. Everything was explained to me down to the level of spice.

Chicken fire never disappoints. Their food is delicious. I can only do the mild heat because it is spicy. It's Nashville hot style. Their tenders are always flavorful and crispy. The fries are seasoned to perfection. They do not disappoint.
