Me and my teenage boys just happened to be in the area looking for fried chicken sandwiches. We saw a Chik-Fil-A nearby but thought, "hell, let's try something new." Yelp took us to Nash Bros. Upon entering, the menu looks a little intimidating. From burgers to hot chix sandwiches, to tenders, loaded nachos, loaded fries, and even Bubble tea. Sometimes a big menu at a fast casual spot can be a bad sign, just trying to do too much. The good news is that the staff member patiently took us through the menu and asked us what we liked, and what heat level we were comfortable with. Between us we got a hot chix sandwich, chicken tenders, seasoned fries, and where else could you get chicken and waffles in the middle of the day? First off, there are a number of sauces to choose from. And the fries came out crispy and well seasoned. Both good signs. But most importantly, the star of the show just has to be the chicken. Specifically that unique Nashville style of chicken with that unique Nashville cayenne-based seasoning. Ok...so the chicken tasted incredibly fresh, it was thick, juicy, and meaty. There was no way it spent any time under a heat lamp. The spice level at a medium worked for me. A slight glisten of sweat on the ol' forehead. The flavor was there, keeping in mind this isn't a drown your chicken into a pit of bbq sauce type of place. It's a dry rub Nashville heat. So be mindful of that. I am used to Nashville chicken having an oily finish, but this didn't have that (which didn't bother me). The place appeared 5 stars clean. The service was 5 star fantastic. And the food was 100% fresh tasting. Technically, I give it 4-1/2 stars for two reasons. A half star off only because they really are missing a drink station with a sweet and non-sweet tea option for some authenticity. Also because the sauces didn't "Wow" anybody. And sauces that punch you in the mouth can really make a place stand out. But I'm pushing out 5 stars because of the service, the cleanliness, and the freshness. Recommend a stop-in if you are craving that unique Nashville hot chicken flavor.

Some standouts for me were the steak jibarito, the Philly cheesesteak, and the shawarma bowl. The staff also gave us a freebie which was so thoughtful of them! I think it was an app, but I honestly didn't get to try it since my partner devoured it before I got a chance. No matter, we were stuffed regardless! We ordered takeout, and the food was still hot when we tucked in. I can only imagine the menu is even better in person. If you're in the mood for some cultural crossover cuisine, I highly recommend Cultura Subs if you're in the area!

Another waiter seemed to notice our discontent and came by to take the final order, see if we needed anything, and finally, to bring the bill.

Flame On Peri Peri is a singular restaurant serving hot ass food. Kind of seems like it mixes American fast food with Mediterranean options such as chicken and falafel among protein options. This type of cuisine typically uses meat but there's a falafel option for those getting the meaty stuff. After hearing about it one time, I came here. It's located in a nice strip mall building, modern looking. This is an order at the counter type of restaurant. Has some spicy ass food. There's a sort of Mediterranean fast food kind of feel too. It's about $10 for one of the Rice Bowls. The vegan option for protein is the falafel. These were plentiful, a good value. Also you get a choice of sauce, and I got the creamy hummus. This also came with hot and white garlic sauce. It was fucking ass hot. This had serious hot peppers in there. For sure I would go here again. It's expensive so not all the time of course. There's a pretty big menu full of options like bowls, pitas, and salads, and there's options for both meat eaters and vegetarians.
