Hurts hot chicken truck.
Gregory B.

Was informed I had never reviewed Hurt's Hot Chicken truck, so I figured I would take a shot at it now. Let's start with the bad, since it is the shorter subject here. Lamont Hurt is normally a one-man show, so he does everything from order taking to cooking to serving. A lot, especially considering he has a small towed trailer type of food truck. Why is this "bad"? It takes awhile to get your chicken. I think that is easily solved by planning things out (either ordering ahead or finding a seat with friends while you wait - if you are in Bellevue on Thursday, you are welcome to join us). Let's flip this. Lamont makes a mean chicken. When I say mean, I am talking both in the sense of wicked good and in the sense you can hurt yourself if you go to hot. TBH, if you don't like much heat, just get it fried, as even his mild has the weakest members of my family crying (weakest in the sense of not liking much heat, of course). If you go for hot, it will light most of you up (Yes, Trent, I know you da man for heat). As for what to order, it depends. Have not had a dry tender (sandwich) or breast. But my personal favorite is the Hot Chicken gyros. Shredded fried tenders (choose your heat) on a pita smothered with tzatziki sauce. Don't know how he thought this up, but it is a real winner in my book. You can check out his schedule on social media. Normally in Mt. Juliet. At the driving range on Old Harding in Bellevue Thursday from about 5 to sun down.

I've been eating Hot Chicken for years and would definitely consider myself a NHC connoisseur. Hurt's has been on my list for over a year and I finally was able to try it at The Hot Chicken Festival on 4th of July. I ordered the tenders and fries, and got the spice level of "hot". It was hot enough to have a lot of flavor and just the right amount of spice. I have a high tolerance but still like to enjoy it. What makes this dish special, is that they put a lemon seasoning on the fries, and it is so delicious + unique. They also serve you a dipping sauce that tastes as if barbecue sauce and ketchup have a baby. Sounds crazy, but it is sooooo delicious with the fries. I would def order this again and am dying to try their hot shrimp and hot gyro!

Great hot chicken tenders! Got this when they moved the truck to East Nashville for the day and it was very tasty. The chicken was juicy and perfectly fried. The flavor was right on point and the owner hooked it up with an extra tender.

They have the best flavor and the owners that started this growing business are very kind and friendly people. We stopped on the other day for dinner on our way through at this Mt. Juliet location and the food was great as always, however the derogatory music with all of the cursing and sexual language was a bit much and ruined the experience. It wasn't like 1 song, it was all of them. I understand most people are into that sort of thing these days, but not everyone is. I find it difficult to understand how drug use, blatant disregard for law, sexual and police violence are typically considered crimes on the news, yet we and our kids sing about it all the time like it's cool? Maybe one day it will just be a new way of life. Who knows. I still think they have some of the best hot chicken around, I just wish they could be a little more less aggressive with the store music choices.

Really enjoyed the meal here. Service was very friendly, and the hot chicken sandwich was made…read morefresh. If you are a serious hot chicken fan, add plus one to your normal spice - I had medium and it was mild. Great flavor though. I thought the inside was nice, they have beers and TVs with the sports games on. This would qualify as fast casual but its comfortable inside and they also have a patio. Walking distance to all the hotels, ita perfect for a quick meal. Id eat here again for sure.

There's nothing worse than being hungry and ignored. I went in during the afternoon and there were…read morea few other guests...maybe a handful of tables. I sat at the bar since I was flying solo and there were only 2 other people bellied up to the bar. The bartender was right there when I walked up, so I immediately got a beer. And then...nothing. I came there primarily to eat but I was just left at the bar with my beer. Not offered a menu or anything. So I waited. And waited. I assumed the bartender was doing side work or getting ready for shift change? So I waited some more. NOPE. She was just posted up at the other end of the bar sitting at a table on her phone. Okaaaaay. I sat here for about 15 minutes waiting to be offered a menu. Another almost 10 minutes goes by and she gets up and I figure, this is my chance to SHINE. I'll get a menu and a new drink. Negative. She clocks out and leaves. Another bartender takes her place. Alrighty. At least she comes over and I'm able to get a menu and a new drink. Cool, she drops the menu to me and then walks away. Where did the NEW, just-got-in bartender take off to? Yup, you guessed it. She went and sat down at the table at the other end of the bar as well. Perfect. I love that for me. Another worker joins her there and I got to thinking, hot damn, I'll never eat at this rate. Another 10-15 minutes go by, and she finally comes over to take my order. Then goes back to her real place in the restaurant...the table at the end that she gets to sit at while all the guests sit and wonder what the hell is going on. I mean, I even did the universal "put the menu at the edge of the bar to signal I've looked and I know what I want". Food takes longer than I thought it should. I start thinking I'm just going to leave and grab fast food. Then a gentleman brings out my plate that was super hot to the touch. Which means...yup. It sat under the heater for too damn long. Whatevs. Momma's hungry and we are gonna go ham on this Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich. Pretty bummed the sauce was just tossed on top of it like a cover-up prom dress. Also, the coleslaw was not slawing. All they did was take bagged cabbage and put the slaw dressing on top of it! What in the world?! I had more coleslaw dressing than I did Nashville hot. But the food was hot and I made it disappear in record time all the same. Not once did the bartender come to check on me or the food. So by the time she got up from her table at the other end of the bar, I just called for my check. Honestly, I don't expect too much from BWW, but I did expect better than this. It's so frustrating to sit there soooo close to food but still so far away. If you don't want to bartend and take care of the patrons, find another job perhaps. I will say, I gave three stars because they have Twisted Tea on draught and that is AMAZING in itself. Also, the food is fine for what it is. Just the service is lacking all around on this day. In the future, I think I'll choose to sit at the table at the end of the bar. At least I know I'll get service! Will I go back. More than likely. Again, Twisted Tea draught. BUT, and hear me out, always sit at the end near the two top table so you can order what you need as you need it! Otherwise you'll sit and wait for eternal damnation before you get service.

( she should communicate it will be $40 and charged differently) Called to speak with a manager. Waited 13 minutes and no one came to the phone. Neeley never offered or even came to the table for a refill of the drink. I paid at the front counter since she didn't come back to serve us. A young man brought the food to the table. She did not say ONE word. He could smile say enjoy the food, hey everyone. Something!! My goodness. Had a horrible experience. My wings were also half coated with sauce.

But I have to say something about this ridiculous breakfast/lunch system. We sat down at 10:22 this morning. Our server tells us we have 8 minutes to order breakfast because at 10:30 they stop serving breakfast. Okay, no problem. So naturally I say, "Alright, we'll just order lunch." Nope. Apparently she can't put in a lunch order until 11:00. So from 10:30 to 11:00, we're just supposed to sit there and stare at each other. Seriously, what is this system? I'm sitting in a restaurant at 10:30 in the morning, hungry, surrounded by food, and apparently there is a 30-minute period where I am not legally allowed to order anything. It's 2026. We have AI, self-driving cars, phones that can translate languages in real time, and refrigerators that can tell us when we're out of milk. But Town Square Social apparently has a computer system that says: 10:29: "Would you like breakfast?" 10:30: "Absolutely not." 10:31: "Can I order lunch?" 10:31: "Don't get crazy." 11:00: "Okay, now you may eat." Again, I LOVE this place. The food is fantastic. This isn't a knock on the staff or the restaurant itself. But somebody needs to fix this stupid system. If I sit down at 10:22 and decide at 10:42 that I want lunch, I feel like we should have evolved enough as a society to make that happen. Until then, I guess I'll just stare at my wife for 30 minutes and contemplate my life choices. Great food. Great place. Absolutely ridiculous system.

Public Service Announcement -- They aren't closing, but they are moving to Donelson in June 2026. I didn't know until today when we stopped in for lunch. They will be changing the name to Asian Cajun. I will be going to the new spot after they get settled in. That being said I'm going to go ahead and do this review as it's still going to be the same food and owners when they move. This is an Asian/LA seafood fusion restaurant. They serve Thai Apps, Salads, Soups, Wok Fried Noodles, Fried Rice, Stir Fry, Thai Curries, Fresh Shellfish, Sandwiches, weekend Seafood Boils and Boba Teas. They do Catering, also. They also serve some Cajun dishes like Gator Bites, Oysters, Gumbo, Po Boys and more. I will definitely be visiting the new spot in a few months. I think I will review some of the Cajun dishes when I go. Ohhh-- BTW-- They do have a small market selling Frozen Meats and different types of fish like Mahi, Perch, Redfish, Shellfish and Octopus.

After our soccer game, we stopped by with a group of 14 people. They easily accommodated us on a Saturday night. Our server was excellent and always there to fill our drinks and grab more beers. (She even smartly dropped by extra waters so we wouldn't have empty glasses for long.) Jonathan's has a diverse menu to match anyone's tastes. As a big pizza fan, their pepperoni is great, and it has a little extra kick to it with spicy seasoning. Make sure to stop by on Tuesday nights for 2-for-1 pizzas and happy hour drinks.

They are all kinda the same setup, which is half restaurant and half sports bar. They have covered outdoor seating with plenty TV's to watch the game on and a full bar area as well. It's a scratch kitchen serving elevated bar food with a main menu, late night menu, daily specials and happy hour. The menu is a little overwhelming with a huge amount of food options. They serve Apps, Flatbreads, Wings, Salads, Bowls, Sandwiches, Burgers, Tacos, Quesadillas, Pizzas, Soups, Sides and Desserts. I gave a 3 star today because the wings barely had any sauce and were way overcooked and the Pizza was we got was just middle of the road ( nothing special ) The entree I got was good and the Meatball sub was good. This is a good place to go watch a game and have a beer or cocktail.
