    Nashville Daddy's- 3
    Jim W.

    I have so far managed to avoid the whole hot chicken craze. But in a weakened moment I decided to give Daddy's a try on one of its first few days. I asked for a suggestion and the guy told me he like the American, and recommended it when asked. Let's face it - you can get a chicken sandwhich every 20 feet - So I ordered the Nashville instead. I eat a LOT of hot stuff. Usually do a 4 on Thai Food. I usually don't heed heat warning, but I decided to go with a 3. Caution ~ if you think you can do more you can always come back ~ try a 3 first. The service was good. Being new, it was very clean.

    "Mild Chicken Tenders"  overcaked with very hot dry rub.
    Ben S.

    Today was my third visit. I was hesitant to return as my prior visit sandwiches had chicken smaller than the already small bun, and the spice level didn't add up to its name. I have been seeking a true "Nashville Hot Chicken Sandwich Experience." I expressed my concern, "Hey all the pictures on the menu show a large chicken breast sticking out both sides of the sandwich, but my prior orders didn't come close." I was assured that doesn't happen anymore. I ordered 2 Nashville daddys, a spicy daddy sandwiches and mild chicken tenders. All three sandwiches had chicken beyond the bun. The Nashville Daddy, even with the Extra Hot sauce level, still isn't authentic Nashville hot chicken. The sauce on the bun is hot enough to induce a scalp sweat, but the chicken itself is not. I guess the kitchen staff overheard my comments and decided to cake the mild chicken strips in a heavy, hot, dry spice rub. The strips were for my kid, who couldn't eat them at that spice level. I wasn't able to finish them myself, I prefer a hot sauce compared to the heavily caked tenders. See pic. I note that there is not a Daddy's Chicken Shack in Nashville or Tennessee. That might explain my overall disappointment in seeking a true Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich experience here. Not in a hurry to return.

    The Chicken strips are so awesome! I'm addicted to the juicy pieces and the spice but they are getting smaller every time I come.

    The restaurant was very clean and the staff was very polite and helpful. The food was tasty I would come back again

    Breakfast Burrito
    J D.

    Ordered on the app after hearing really good things from some friends. When you order online, it'll tell you that the food will be ready in five minutes. You should plan on showing up maybe like 20 minutes later. The staff is super friendly and nice. The place is super clean. Bathrooms are clean. It's a very nice location. The food is alright, didn't really care for the sauce that came with the breakfast burrito. I would recommend just trying another sauce instead. The staff would probably have a good recommendation. I probably won't go back, but I still think it's a place worth trying.

    Food is fresh, fast, made to order. Crunchy fries. Super great service. Clean bathrooms. Even a window into the kitchen so you know it's clean back there. Two sauces included. Option for fried pickles on the side. Love it.

    This is the third Bo's I tried and I'm finding one thing they all have in common is extremely long…read morewait times. At least at this location I received my meal in just over a 1/2 hour. All three of different Bo's restaurants I tried, I found orderes were being held up waiting on chicken from the cook line. Maybe during busy times cooks should be dropping chicken constantly until the rush in over in order to fill orders in a timely manner. You still would be serving fresh hot and crispy chicken due to demand. Imagine how many more customers you could push through the system if you had chicken ready to fill orders. This location did have the best biscuits compared to the other two. The biscuits here were fresh and hot, like they just made them. At the other locations biscuts tasted like they sat under a heat lamp for hours and were very dried out and over cooked. Sweet tea was better at this location as well. It was the right sweetness and a litte stronger. Other two locations the tea was almost clear and barley sweet. This location is the best of the three I tried. I learned to go inside the restaurant to place a order because gas now days is too expensive to idle over 30 minutes in a drive thur. I do like the crispy crunch and hint of heat of the chicken. I'm not a fan of the sides but I haven't tried the mac & cheese yet, rumored to be good. Sweet tea was better here by far, but nothing special about it. HTO and QT have good sweet tea too.

But if you have a kid with big appetite but still on the picky side that works. The staff while super nice, seem easily to get swamped. We came early but they had a steady stream of online orders as well as walk ins and they only have one prep station. So there was a long line of walk ins and we noticed at least 5 people waiting on delayed Togo orders as we got settled to eat. I doubt we will come as a whole family again; I might come back for the nachos if I'm over here at a time I don't think they would be busy.

Now to the important stuff: the food. The sides we got were pretty much what you would expect, but they definitely did not disappoint. The onion rings and fries were both crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside. For sauces, we got the MC Comeback Sauce, which is similar to Thousand Island, their ranch, and our favorite, the White Garlic Sauce. The wings blew me out of the water. They were huge and definitely lived up to their name. One thing that can happen when you get wings this big is that they are either undercooked or dry on the inside, but that was completely the opposite here. All of the wings were seasoned well and incredibly juicy on the inside. The batter on the outside was exactly what you would expect from a Korean chicken wing: perfectly crunchy, even with all the sauce on top. We got the Cheesy Flake, Seoul Hot, and BBQ Soy Garlic, which we ranked from least favorite to favorite in that order. The sauces were not overly sweet like you see at some places, and they paired perfectly with the sides and wings. I will definitely be adding this place into my regular rotation. It definitely beats out a lot of the chains I usually go to, and I am looking forward to coming back more often to try some of the other items on the menu!
