    Nashville mild and Nashville hot, breadstick, and cheese curds/fries. The breadstick is random, but crispy and good.
    Zach D.

    I've never had chicken tenders this massive and tender. The hit chicken tenders are great. Cheese curds were good, but a little salty. Don't be confused by the 2 and 3 option tenders. I'm a big eater and was absolutely stuffed to discomfort level after finishing the 3 piece meal. Uber eats also delivers here.

    Part of the problem with smaller local businesses is consistency of service. I've been going to this place for quite a while. When I first started going to Heaterz , the service was pretty personable and outstanding in fact. Went there tonight and service was slow and unapologetic. The front person is more concerned with gossiping and chatting than service.I was told my order will be ready in 10 to 15 minutes instead it was more like 30 to 40 minutes. I think the biggest part of the wait was her chatting upfront. May not come back.

    Chicken Tenders (2) Nashville Mild Loaded Potato Salad Ranch
    Christina Z.

    Best Chicken Spot in Alton! Chicken was flavorful, crispy, and filling. The sides add to every meal and the Loaded Potato Salad is a must try. I got the Chicken Tenders with Nashville Hot and the spice level was perfect and their homemade ranch is soo good. My boyfriend got the nashville hot Chicken Sandwich and wasn't a fan of the coleslaw (it's a bit sweet) but I really enjoyed it. We went in to order the food and probably left 10 minutes later, so highly recommend stopping!!

    Two Piece - White Box

    I was so excited yesterday, when Heaterz location in Kirkwood got the ROTD here on Yelp. Then I realized, I have not written my own review for the original location. Something I need to correct now. Honestly, if I had my act together, I could have been First to Review. I've been coming here since they first opened, and have not been disappointed. A box of tenders or an order of hot wings are always a winner. Their Sidewinder Fries, truly are unique. They are not your typical looking crinkle fry. The slaw is right up there with KFC's and you've got to try their Nashville Street Corn at least once. Follow them on Facebook, so you'll know when they're having specials. Yesterday, I enjoyed a two piece white box. The breast piece was huge, juicy and crisp and the wing was meaty, too. The ambiance is like a dive bar/diner, but the food is good. Service is adequate and friendly for a fast food order at the counter restaurant and the pricing is a good value.

    Old cheese curds that were not cheesy at all.

    I really don't like to leave a bad review but the last 3 to 4 times I've eaten here the food has tremendously gone downhill. From the wrong amount of chicken chunks or chicken strips to them adding sauce when you don't want sauce to your corn being burnt with no butter garlic sauce on it, to the breadsticks not having any garlic butter sauce on it The fried cheese curds are fried but they're not cheesy on the inside. I'm not quite sure what's going on up there right now but the owners of this place needs to get it in check a little bit. The food the first year that they opened was absolutely amazing and now it just keeps going downhill every single time I eat it. My chicken chunks were supposed to be Memphis hot which is a seasoning inside the batter​ but mine are sauced. The cheese curds seem super old they were not at all stringy or cheesy and there was no​garlic butter sauce on my bread or corn. I paid $20 for this meal to be wrong and nasty.

    Chicken Wings - Original

    Ordered two wing combo orders, one was Nashville Hot and the other was Original. I'm so disappointed because the last time we got Heaterz everything was very good. This time everything was bad (except the mac-n-cheese). The Nashville Hot wings didn't have any sauce on them. What little was on it looked like grease that was in the bottom of the container. They were just bad. They weren't seasoned at all. My boyfriend tried to doctor them up by making his own buffalo sauce, but that didn't help much. I got the original wings and they were just bad. I guess I thought they would have some kind of sauce (hence original sauce). But they were just plain wings, no seasonings, no flavor at all. The only thing I could do was dunk them in the ranch dressing for SOMETHING. The sides were the greens and the mac-n-cheese. The greens used to be really good but this time they were very bland. Again, no flavor. The mac-n-cheese was the only thing that was okay. This was our third time eating here. Not sure what happened this time. Maybe they have new cooks or something because the food was terrible. We won't be coming back. Food cost too much now-a-days to not get good food

    Great new to Alton hot chicken place! They are in the old Mini Corral building. Soft opening was last week, full opening this week. Dine in or carry out, but note dine in is very few tables as the building is very small. We called in our order, they said 30 minutes and it was just about exactly 30 minutes. They had several people picking up orders while we were there. Now let's get to the chicken! It comes in regular (not spicy) or nashville hot / spicy. Nashville hot / spicy isn't exactly as spicy as I expected - compared to say Hattie B's hottest level. It's more the mild version. It is juicy & perfectly cooked though! Strips are pretty decent sized, I was glad I didn't order the 3 piece and went with the 2 piece - 3 would have been too much for lunch. Fries were good & my hubby said the slaw was a 10/10. We really wanted to try the Nashville corn, but they were sold out because apparently everyone else wanted some too! (Come on, someone review and tell us about the corn!). 5/5 for a hole in the wall hot chicken place! *updated to add menu and note the 2 piece tender w side is $6, such a steal.

    Picking up Heaterz which is always amazing! They now have slot machines in their shop. They've got sports on and hip hop in the back. I honestly feel cool just ordering from here.

    It's been four years since my last visit to Fazoli's. So I decided to come back to celebrate,…read moreNational Spaghetti Day on the 4th of January. Since my last visit, I've learned the Fazoli's is a franchise and is black and woman owned. To celebrate Spaghetti Day, I went with a Marinara and Meat Sauce. However, the kid in me really wanted the Meatballs. The portion was a hearty size and was more than enough. It came with a side of Breadsticks. They were the perfect accompaniment. The young man working as a cashier was very professional and friendly. My food runner was equally friendly and when I finished my meal and was still sitting at the table, she offered to take the empty dishes away. If you are dining in, they use real plates and flatware. That's a nice touch. I went at lunchtime and was surprised how busy and full the dining room was. I was also surprised to see diners leaving a couple of dollars on the table as they left. I wonder if the food runner gets all of them or if they split them with all on duty. I'll be back and I wont wait four years or a for pasta holiday. When: January 4, 2026 Why: National Spaghetti Day

    Haven't had fazolis since college and my partner really missed it. We got a 5$ off an order over…read more10$ coupon and decided to try it out again. We ordered 5 regular wings (9.99) and the crispy chicken bacon ranch salad which came with bread sticks (8.99). The wings were good but overpriced for the size. The salad had pepperoni chips (probably like 40 over them), crispy chicken, iceberg, fries breadstick croutons, bacon and cheese. This is a salad for people that don't like salad, not so much a salad for people who enjoy salad. Wouldn't order again but if you like all those toppings go for it- food was fresh. The breadsticks are terrible for you and frickin incredible. Service was great! Woman working the drive thru was excellent. Order took a long time but I guess that was cause of the wings?

    Remember, patience is a virtue…read more The sandwiches are great. The restaurant is kept clean. The staff is friendly and professional. However, the service can be on the slow side. However, keep in mind that everything is freshly made. I've watched them and they do not dawdle. They are moving those sandwiches down the assembly line very smoothly. I wonder if adding another person would expedite the production. So, if you're in a hurry, I recommend using their app to place your order before you arrive. I've created my own sandwich in the past, but today I went with their, New York Steamer. Yum-Yum. It's a hot deli-style sub with corned beef brisket and pastrami (my favorite deli meat), melted provolone cheese, deli mustard, mayo and Italian dressing. All that goodness is pressed between a toasted sub roll (I choose, wheat). I live about a mile and a half from the Firehouse and when I got home, it was still toasty warm. The pairing of beef brisket and pastrami was a winning combination. I pretty confident, I'll be ordering this one again. I've never made a combo, but I like that they have Miss Vicki's as a choice of chips. They also, have the typical Lay's potato chips, too. If you donate $4 you can get yourself an empty pickle bucket. The donation goes to support first responders and safety organizations. Mine comes in handy when doing yard work. Also, be sure to sign up for the rewards program. You can accumulate points towards free food. We all like free. Speaking of free, Firehouse Subs will treat you to a free medium sandwich on your birthday. Isn't that nice. When: February 3, 2026 Why: Lunch Hunger Pains.

    I was just at the Firehouse Subs and the cashier placed my drink cup upside down on the counter…read more When I asked for a cup that is not upside down she just flipped it. When I said, no I'd just like a new cup that is not upside down, she swapped my cup and put the dirty cup back in the pile with the clean cups.
