Combo
Shanoah N.

We ordered this to our hotel room, did not take long was very fast. We were disappointed on the size of the fried jalapeños, paid around $7 for this tiny little side. Definitely not worth the seven dollars. The combo had just enough fries, but the tender on the bun was so tiny not worth it. The flavor and taste was there crunchy on the outside juicy on the inside. They just need to fix the portion sizes for the price you pay.

My husband and I stopped by here on a whim. We were in the area getting boba and decided we wanted to grab some lunch first and this place caught our eyes. We got The Bird and The Loaded Bird and shared both- they were fantastic. The sand which was stacked nicely so the portions were a good size, and super tasty. We left pleasantly surprised and satisfied.

A solid spot when I'm in Denver craving flavorful, spicy chicken. This is the Nashville-style hot chicken with a wide range of spice levels when you need a heat-packed dish. The menu features chicken sandwiches, wings, and deep-fried Oreos for dessert. The staff is friendly and like mountain climbing sherpas, will guide you through the spice options (caution: some choices can be very hot). The chicken wings are excellent, served with Buffalo sauce, BBQ sauce, or a fiery Nashville dry rub. The atmosphere is casual, the portion sizes are decent, and the service is quick but they do get busy which of course leads to longer wait times.

Ok, spice is good. However, chicken is RAW!!! The cook needs to cook their chicken better to make sure they don't get their customers sick! Beware, ask the cook to leave the chicken on the grill longer, or find a better chicken place. Edit: Good they refunded when my husband went back there and showed the picture, but RAW chicken is carelessness. Please be safe.

The bird sandwich

I pay more then $100 dollars for what i order and Im always getting my order wrong . Location colfax , they forgot how to make wings and a simple sandwich seriously guys .... Etc etc.....

when i saw the photos, i was excited, but honestly i was kind of disappointed. When you order a sandwich that cost 9.99 and up and it doesnt come with anything else. *shaking my head* i think it is overpriced for a sandwich with nothing else. Atleast have some fries or come with a chip. Let start with the food we got. So we got the bird sandwich medium spicy, the early bird with the hotest spicy (with a sign wavier) and the loaded burrito. The spicy wasnt that spicy to be honest. The blazing was not as spicy as i thought it would be, the only thing that was spicy was the seasoning. If the whole chicken was spicy together, now that is a different story. Both the sandwich was not great becuz it comes with a small piece of chicken. The chicken was dry as well. The only good think i enjoy was the loaded burrito, but it didnt come with another sauce, only drizzle sauce on it. It needs some additional sauce to it. But overall, i have had better and i hope this place can up their game! The oreo shake was good, it got too sweet afterward. Im not a very sweet person, but my family like it.

Loaded burger? No. Spicy? No What a joke

Not loaded or spicy. A sad, sad, overpriced establishment. Id rather get McDonald's next time, which is hilariously bad

Lots of med sauce. Could be used for something possibly. Bit overkill.

Good food, amazing service, cute dining and clean restrooms…read more We had a great time hanging out having some wings w beers. You know the weather is coming in when direct TV goes out... glad that the rain storm was about done when we were. We always like our wings plain w sauce on the side. The wings were done to perfection with grill marks and crispy skin. We picked the rotating sauce - palisade peach habanero, garlic hot buffalo and spicy Thai. All the sauces were great but not as spicy as their names. We'd hope for spicier. The ranch dressing was yum, the fried cauliflower bites were delicious too. All in all the meal was tasty and the service was top notch. I would come back again, but on a pay day - I thought the wings to beers to $ ratio was a little steep... but definitely will be back for the service. Everyone of the staff was very service forward, we really appreciate that!

But at the same time you have to be seated, even on the bar! The attitude of the lady seating people was condescending to many people waiting and that approach has no place in the service industry. Other service people were pretty kind and nice but the initiate experience is ridiculous and leaves a bitter taste on the experience.

Have to update my review here. I've been going to FotM since it opened in Wash Park and to the…read moreHighlands one prior. Lately, I've been disappointed. The prices on everything keep creeping up while the quality goes down. I understand food inflation, but coupled with declining quality I'm just no longer a regular customer anymore. The last 3 times I've gone, the fries were very brown on the outside but not overcooked, indicating the oil was old and needed to be changed, this gives them an off flavor that's not good. When done right, their fries are fantastic, however this is a regular issue now. Also, they changed their burger in the past year, something I used to order a bunch, but not at all anymore. It used to be a grass fed patty and now they call this a wagyu blend, but it's awful and tasteless compared to the old one. Additionally, their wings (for some reason only when getting to-go) are either way over sauced, sitting in a pool of sauce and thus get soggy or they're under-sauced. The issue with the oil is really what gets me though. I'm guessing they're dragging it out longer before changing it to save money, but they're doing it at the cost of quality and now they've lost a regular customer. I may revisit next year, but not anytime soon. Employees are relatively friendly and service is ok, ambience is typical of a wing joint.

They use Napa cabbage as the base and it felt like they didn't dry it well after washing the lettuce. My salad was pretty wet. The burger was fantastic! The bacon was thick and perfectly cooked. I love goat cheese on a burger and the tomato marmalade added a nice tang. On my 2nd visit, my friend and I shared the Rocky Mountain Oysters appetizer because when you're in Colorado you have to have them! They're lightly breaded and fried, so they have a nice crunch. The horseradish dip is tasty! Service was excellent both visits! They kept my iced tea glass refilled and were quick with anything I needed. I also liked that their outdoor patio is on the 16th street mall, next to a street that's closed to cars, so you don't get a ton of car traffic and fumes. Instead you can people watch and enjoy the pretty sky art while you eat.

He upgraded his side to the brussels sprouts. I got the peachy colada, a bbq pulled pork sandwich, and stuck with the fries. We shared the peach crumble for dessert. We were definitely stuffed by the end. The burger was good, but I am a sucker for goat cheese. The brussels were the right amount of cooked, but under seasoned. Had to add salt. The pulled pork sandwich was really good, especially with the texas toast it came on. My drink was good if you like sweet drinks (I do). The peach crumble was delicious and was perfect on a hot day (it comes with ice cream). It did come out fresh, so it was hot. It was pretty cool inside and the decor fit the theme. It made it feel like a nicer restaurant. We ate inside just since it was hot out, but they had the misters going in the patio. The service was just okay.
