    Hangry Joe's was just okay. I got a combo #2 which is tenders and fries. Food: The food was a true 3/5. It was good, not great, cooked but not crispy. The fries were honestly pretty good. I felt I overpaid- it was 4 tenders and fries for $16 before tip and tax. I thought the portion was pretty big, but there wasn't a half portion option to choose. Ambiance: The actual place was pretty clean, but not super welcoming. No music, only a couple of tables. Staff: The staff were fine- took my order, were polite, but didn't give me a wait estimate (ended up only being about 10 minutes). No small talk, no further conversation. Overall, an underwhelming experience, and I'm not sure I'll be back.

    Chicken Sando

    My husband and I are big fans of Nashville Hot Chicken. It's been hard to find places in the Hampton roads so we decided on driving to Richmond for the day. My husband ordered online, and he just went into the housing and picked it up. It was quick, and honestly delicious. Out of the heat scale we got our sandos in Hot. So if you can handle some spice I definitely recommend it! The chicken is huge! I think that's a trademark for this business, and it's great for photos. We will be traveling to Richmond just for this alone.

    First time at Hangry Joe's. We arrived around 11pm and were able to quickly order using the kiosks. The inside was closed which was unfortunate but thankfully are order was ready within 12 minutes. The food was delicious! One thing I wished was for the waffle fries were not crispy but pretty soggy from how it's packed - still , the fries were very flavorful.

    Chicken Sandwich is huge

    Gonna have to downgrade my review, when the first Hangry Joes opened up in Ashland the prices were extremely good. It was like $8.50 for each chicken entree compared to the overly inflated prices now. Seems like the Sweet Frog owners personally find a business model that works really well when they're first opening and as they expand their franchise they just turn into generic cookie cutter establishments. The chicken feels so bland like an amateur home cook made them. There's only spice and absolutely no seasoning or flavor in the chicken anymore while they're charging like double the prices they had when they first opened. Inflation is a very real thing for businesses but I know it's not enough to force your margins to be doubled on the menu prices. Disappointing since my last few visits I never even finish the meal anymore because it feels like a chore to eat instead of actually being a good meal.

    3.5 stars see end of the review for my overall rating rationale We walked in and decided to use the self service kiosk to order.....there are two kiosks and it was pretty easy to use and convenient. The person behind the counter didn't greet us or ask if we needed help, if I hadn't asked if I could get the bottled soda from the cooler they might not have spoken to us at all. After we ordered, we sat down, and when our order was ready, the person behind the counter brought it out to us. The sandwiches are pretty big (hanging out of the bun) and loaded with sauce. This was a sauce all over face and dripping down your arms kind of sandwhich. Chicken was cooked nicely and juicy. Fried okra was tasty. It's a typical fried food,totally bad for your meal. Not really my type of food, though I was craving a fried chicken sandwich, and this satisfied the craving. I took a star off for the atmosphere because it was kind of dirty inside and chairs were uncomfortable What we ate Chicken sando.....one mild, one medium Fried Okra My rating rationale + .5 Service ( gave 1/2 star for self service option) +1 Food~Taste/flavor/quality +1 Presentation 0 Atmosphere/vibe +1 Value

    I came hungry and Hangry Joes delivered in more ways than one! I was greeted immediately upon walking in. You can either order at the counter or through a self-service kiosk. I went straight for the kiosk which was extremely easy to navigate from the menu to ordering and checking out. I ordered a chicken sandwich combo with waffle fries and a drink togo. I loved that you were able to select which spice level you preferred (no spice, mild, medium, hot, very hot). I absolutely love spicy food and have a high tolerance, but noticed that if you selected hot or very hot that you were not able to receive a swap or refund. I opted for hot. I took a seat and looked around. The space is very open. The tables were tidy. Plenty of customers were in and out during my time there. Nothing special to note regarding decor, but I did enjoy the simplicity. My order was brought to me in no time. I was ecstatic because as I waited, I browsed reviews and photos - definitely hoping my sandwich would be a replica of this massive sandwich I looked up and saw. Yes. Absolute yes. I took my sandwich out of the box and it lived up to the hype I've read and heard and the photos I saw. I took my first bite and it was good. Now, the chicken cutlet was massive. Topped with tangy coleslaw, sauce and pickles. Every bite was perfect and hot was deliciously hot. The waffle fries were seasoned well. The side of sauce included is delicious. The next time I come through, I'm going to try the spiciest.

    Combo 1 (SandoFries) Chicken Sando

    Impromptu stop for dinner. I hadn't eaten since 11am and this meal hit the spot. The cashier was helpful as she answered our questions about the wing flavors and the differences between the sandwiches. I had the Chicken Sando mild combo and it was delicious! The chicken was cooked perfectly and it is absolutely filling; the slaw and the pickles gave it a nice touch. My boyfriend hates pickles on his sandwiches and ordered his on the side but he even ate the sandwich with all the toppings and gave it a 10/10. I loved the fries, they were fresh and seasoned well. My boyfriend had the honey butter but we didn't realize it'd be like a powder and be on his fries so his fries were sweeter. We also ordered chicken wings and I picked no seasoning and spicy soy garlic for my sauce options. I was confused at first why half weren't sauced but the sauce was on the side and I think it was because I selected the no seasoning. But nonetheless the wings were fried perfectly and I love my wings fried hard and didn't even have to ask; they were also flavorful. The spicy soy garlic was good as well and I decided I'd just toss my leftovers in it once I got home. The restaurant definitely gets a lot of business and seems to be more popular for to go orders but I'd recommend it for dine in for small groups. 10/10 recommend!

    When I was looking this place up before going....I wasn't sure what I was getting into. A lot of reviews seemed kind of split. Arriving here...I see why. When it comes to the atmosphere, it's clean and well running. However, service is on the slow side. However...the chicken. I am always on the hunt for Nashville style hot chicken and am rarely able to find it outside of Nashville. But Hangry Joe's delivers. Their spices are on point. The portions are very large. The sauces were great. And their sandwich was the way to go. I wasn't sure before coming...but this chicken has me wanting to come back for more.

    Chicken Sando Combo 1 (SandoFries)
    Ebony W.

    This place is pretty cool. Quick order touch screens are perfect for those who don't know what they want (me, lol). The menu is pretty diverse. From Nashville Hot Chicken style sandwiches to milk tea, they cover a slew of taste options. I ordered a Chicken Sando with fries. And the fries? They're waffle fries and come with a yummy sauce that has a slight spice to it that I can't quite put my finger on, flavor wise. The chicken on the sando was huge and seasoned heavily. A bit salty where the seasoning was heavier but spicyyyy. I ordered Medium spice and my eyes watered. I had tears BUT only on the portion of the chicken that extended the bun. Once you finally get to the bun, there's more of that yummy sauce, Cole slaw and pickles to help with the cool down! It doesn't really feel like a place you'd go for the dine in experience, but there's plenty of space and chill alt music.

    So me and the family came here last month while visiting richmond for the day. We walked in and ordered off the self serve tablet. I decided to get the tenders combo which came with fries and a fountain drink. For some reason that day the soda machine wasn't properly working so i got some pink lemonade. Food didn't take long to come out. My tender combo came with 4 big tenders and i chose the second hottest heat level which didn't disappoint. I'm a big spice person so this place was just up my alley. When back in town i will visit this place again.

    I was super excited to see a new restaurant around the corner from my house. This place has a wide range of spice levels but you can also get no spice too. I ordered the chicken sandwich - mild. First of all it was huge, I mean it was hanging off the bread, and... there was nothing mild about it. It's so spicy, so I can only imagine how hot the higher levels are. I must say the chicken was cooked juicy and delicious. It had cole slaw on it and the waffle fries were hot and tasty too. The only thing that wasn't good was the lemonade. It tasted like water with a splash of lemon and no sugar. I brought it to the staffs attention so they could fix it. Overall, this place was great. My one wish is that they offer plant based chicken too. Maybe one day?

    Let's see what this is about

    I wanted this place to be so much more than it was. Now granted I did not go after the hot chicken sandwich that has been raved about instead I decided to go off the menu and see what else this place had to offer. I ordered the Korean nuggets with rice which was pretty flavorful yet the sauce to chicken ratio was terrible I had so many dry spots on my chicken that I should have ordered the sauce on the side. I will go back and try these again as well as the chicken sandwich stay tuned for further review

    Grease and a sad side of pickles

    Just don't. They were dead during a Friday dinner service - for good reason. Sauce tastes like chemicals, chicken has no crunch, and subpar service.

    Magical Food…read moreWe got a basket of 10 fried boneless wings tossed in mild buffalo sauce, a small bag of buffalo ranch fries, a drink and a complementary cup of the pickle coleslaw. Everything was fantastic. The chicken was crispy to the last wing, flavor of the sauce was excellent. Fries were crispy with great flavor with the buffalo each rub. We ordered a small and the bag was huge. I don't know if that was a mistake but if it was truly a small there would never be a reason to order the large as it could easily feed 4. Ranch dipping sauce was excellent and the coleslaw was surprisingly great. Service Food came out quickly and the staff was friendly. I was a little taken back that there was no one to take our order only iPads but when I was having trouble someone came over to help and was friendly. Ambiance It is a small place with half a dozen tables. Decor is nothing special but it is clean. Price Our meal was $26 but it easily fed both me and my wife so split between us wasn't bad. We love wings and this may be our favorite place we've been to. My wife kept saying this place is "magical". Highly recommended

    Nash & Smash 2/3/26…read moreTuesday 12:50pm Finally got a chance to check out Nash & Smash. I ordered The Classic Bull / double. Combo. $16.00 Expensive but then again every thing is. The first thing I noticed is the plastic cups that came with the combo. Very, very flimsy you can not hold it without spilling something.. Looking at the menu, I also see they sell chicken. Waffle fries - they taste like the old school chick fil a waffle fries with seasoning. They were good and cooked fresh. The Classic Bull - huge! The patties didn't taste like it had seasoning on them and the bun would probably be better if it were tasted. however it's still good. I opted for their special sauce on the side because I wasn't sure how that taste. And got mayonnaise, ketchup and mustard on my burger.. after tasting the sauce I could see where it would be good on the burger. The dining room is not real big and there were a few customers in there. Family friendly.. I was surprised that they weren't more busy, especially during lunchtime and the food is not bad. The location is in a decent area with other small restaurants around. Good customer service. Overall I'd give it a 8/10. I'll return here for another burger. Definitely need to try the chicken..

    4/23/26 - DISGUSTED & ANNOYED are the only 2 words that are coming to mind for this experience…read more We've been to their other location in Norfolk, so we THOUGHT we knew what to expect. Boy, were we wrong! We ordered a single smash burger with bacon and onion straws ONLY! There was to be nothing else on it. We ordered a 4-pc chicken combo with waffle fries and cornbread. We also ordered a Honey Butter Buzz chicken sandwich. After waiting 30 minutes, we expected hot food. The fries were cold. The burger had cheese on it that they attempted to scrape off and serve to me! I DO NOT EAT CHEESE!!! The chicken sandwich was devoured by my son. The fried chicken was hot but bland. The cornbread was the best part of my meal - soft and sweet just like I like it. I won't be back personally, but my son may come back. I do not appreciate being given a burger with cheese. If they messed it up, don't try to be slick and scrape it off. Make your customer a brand new one. To prevent me from complaining, my family member just took it to go to eat later himself. Spending over $50, our food should be as ordered. They needed to clean their lobby & the trash attracted gnats and other flying bugs all around the restaurant. Outside of not enjoying my meal, I had to spend my time slapping away bugs. Austin was friendly & there was plenty of parking available. I just wish I had a better experience.

    While visiting Richmond, we decided to stop by Dave's Hot Chicken because the boys saw it on TikTok…read moreand had to try it. Of course, they wanted to do the challenge and try the hottest level--the "Reaper." But baby...when I found out it required me to sign a waiver?! Yeah, that was a hard NO for me. So we played it safe--one got the medium, and the other went with the hot (or super hot--whatever is right under that Reaper level). Now for me--I kept it cute and went with the mild slider and fries. I only ordered one slider because I saw how big they were on someone else's plate, and I was right--it was HUGE! And let me tell you, it was actually really good. The chicken was flavorful, crispy, and cooked just right. And listen... I am not a coleslaw person at all, but theirs? Surprisingly good! The pickle added that perfect sweet and tangy kick that pulled everything together. The restaurant itself was clean and had some really cool, colorful artwork that gave it a fun vibe. And the service? Excellent! The cashier was friendly, patient, and really knowledgeable about the different heat levels and flavors, which made ordering super easy. Now, the only downside for me was the price. It felt a little high for what you get, (the meal did not include a drink) so I did take off a star for that. But overall, the food was good, the kids really enjoyed it, and it was a fun stop during our trip. If you're in the area, I'd definitely recommend checking it out! Rating: 4/5

That said, while it's definitely a strong option, it's not my personal top pick for hot chicken in Richmond. I tend to look for a little more flavor depth alongside the heat. Still worth trying, especially if you're craving something reliably spicy -- it just doesn't quite take the crown for me.
