Truck + Menu
Josh A.

Imagination on Fire didn't miss once. Ordered a burger which comes with fries and some spicy tenders with upgraded truffle fries. The burger was really good and properly seasoned. Spicy tenders were super crispy with a Nashville-like glaze and the truffle fries were overwhelming with truffle in the best way. I was kind of thrown off guard I really was pleasantly surprised with the food. Will definitely be back!

It has been years! I have worked in the city for over 2 years and still cannot find a place that beats this chicken sandwich. I finally decided to take a Friday off and was craving Imagination on Fire. I drove over during the rainstorm and got to the place at 2:34 and realized that they were on their lunch break. You bet I waited until 3pm for their return. But it was worth it. I asked for my sandwich deconstructed and drove back home. Side note - I usually love my food hot, if it's meant to be eaten hot, I'm eating it fresh. But because I really wanted to enjoy it I waited until I got home. Unlike other places, I will tell you this, these tenders can be placed in the air fryer and are still as juicy and crispy as it is fresh. The customer service is 10/10. If you haven't tried Imagination on Fire, you are missing out! Make sure to check their availability before heading over. Enjoy!

Chicken strips and truffle fries

Not only is this the best chicken sandwich ever !!!! But they also have amazing truffle fries and delicious honey mustard dipping sauce get an extra one ! The spicy has a bite but in the best way !! The flavors and quality is impeccable! The owner and chef is the best and all the staff is very nice and friendly! It's super easy to order and always located in a nice area with lots of parking.

The Fried Chicken Sandwich is AMAZING with their Spicy Pink Sauce!!!
Chef Omar R.

Time and time again, great food with excellent service makes Imagination On Fire my go-to for a great foodie experience. Today I got the Smashburger! Soft, buttered Brioche Bun that was perfectly toasted, then you sink in to the tender Smashburger beef with melted cheddar cheese, sliced onions and delicious pickles. I believe there's Mayo on the bun which was good. I'm going to ask for their Spicy Pink sauce on the burger next time to heighten the experience. Imagination On Fire SMASHED it!!

Seriously, this is the best damn fried chicken I've had in town--hands down. The chicken sandwich was unreal, crispy, juicy, and full of flavor. The people there were super friendly and made me feel genuinely welcome, which made the whole experience even better. If you haven't checked out this spot yet, you're seriously missing out. If you love fried chicken, this place is a must. Somebody give these folks the recognition they deserve!

This is the chicken fingers and fries on top. On the bottom is the fried chicken Sandwich with Truffle Fries!

First time trying this gem in Napa. Napa has a strong food scene on top of the wine scene. Today we tried the Fried Chicken Sandwich, not spicy The chicken was soooo crunchy and juicy. The chicken being spicy would be great for additional flavor. As a regular chicken sammich it was still packed with flavor. The chicken fingers were actually the as above. Sooooo crunchy and juicy, packed with flavor. This is a must, whenever you're in town - the place in Napa is a great place to eat. Also remember to support local eats!!!

Smash burger!!! With truffle fries!!
NorCal K.

Well no wonder they have been in the top and now recently voted number one in Napa! It's well deserved. Excellent customer service and the chefs are super cool!!! They made us feel just like family. The spicy chicken sandwich is fried to perfection... crunchy on the outside, super juicy on the inside and perfectly perfectly perfectly spicy! Never have we ever had a better spicy chicken sandwich. The Smash Burger... Amazing. Seasoned and cooked with love. Best burger we've had in the bay area. Their fries are SUPER Yummy and the Truffle Fries... are BOMB! Ask about the specials too. Sounds like they do different one each week... but that was thee best Buffalo pulled chicken sandwich, we just devoured, on this planet. The hour drive from SF was well worth it!!

Spicy Chicken Sandwich
Tania C.

Probably one of the best spicy chicken sandwiches I've had. The fried chicken is crispy and tender with the perfect amount of spicy heat! You'll want to savor every bite to really taste the yummy flavors. Even the regular fried chicken sandwich was delicious, so you can't go wrong with one or the other!

Please heed my warning (and those of the other most recent reviews!) and save yourself the time,…read moremoney, effort, and stress - hire literally ANY other caterer for your event. After months of poor communication and several displays of unprofessionalism, I tried to cancel our contract 6 weeks prior to our wedding date. I was in a dispute with the owner (Gabe) to try and get a refund for an event he hadn't even catered, and he refused to provide it. Note that the owner himself has stated that he thinks his business is headed to an end. See attached photo for text messages I received from him with this claim. If anything, you don't want to work with someone who cannot maintain a professional demeanor in their client correspondence. In case you need further convincing to NOT hire Ring of Fire, feel free to read through my ordeal below. --- In February of this year, I reached out in search of a wedding caterer. Gabe invited me and my partner to a complimentary tasting with other couples who were interested in booking. The tasting went great (the ONLY thing that went well in all my interactions with them) so we booked and paid a 50% deposit. Over the next few months I reached out to get deadlines and feedback on our proposed menu. After repeated attempts to contact him, the only time he really reached out was to offer a discount on our balance if we paid it early. In hindsight, this should have been a *red flag* - no professional would ever reach out to a client to ask them to pay something in advance of the contract terms unless they were poorly managing their business and finances. Instead, thinking it was gesture of customer service, we went ahead and paid our balance early to get the discount. However, after paying, Gabe unprofessionally asked us to reschedule our already confirmed site tour in favor of booking another lunch. My wedding coordinator and I agreed to reschedule, only to have him NO SHOW for the site tour. 15 minutes after the confirmed meeting time I called Gabe to get his ETA. He didn't seem to know where our venue was (even though he accepted a calendar event with the date, time, and address in it) and told me was still 50 minutes away so we proceeded without him. Had we waited, he would have been OVER AN HOUR LATE. At this point, I lost faith that ROF could cater my event. We were still 6 weeks away from our date so I requested to cancel our contract and get back the balance payment (that HE requested we pay early). Needless to say, he did not want to grant the refund. I worked with an attorney and determined the best course of action was to file a dispute with the credit card company AND to sue him in small claims court as backup. Luckily, the credit card company resolved the dispute in my favor but I still experienced an extreme amount of stress trying to book a new caterer with less than 6 weeks from my wedding date - something I would never wish on any bride. Again, please save yourself the stress and look elsewhere for your caterer.

I would not even give this business one star. I was a guest for a birthday celebration most…read morerecently and I was appalled and disappointed by the service. They were late in getting to my friends birthday celebration. Uncalled for.! The food was just okay but there was not enough for any seconds on appetizers. The staff seemed to not really know what was going on and did their best, alas the coup d'etat that the dessert was melted. Relatives of the birthday party ended up going to a local store to get dessert for the party because the catering staff was at a loss of what to do, to fix the problem, it was awful. This company is so unprofessional. I would never recommend them to anyone. Just bad, bad, bad on every level.

Ian is the best! This chicken sandwich is incredible! WHOA! He was so sweet. The chicken nuggets…read moreand all the sauces were incredible!

I've known about this spot for quite some time after I read an article from the SF Chronicle…read moreclaiming they had the best chicken sandwich throughout the Bay Area. And just to turn it up a notch, the Chronicle also has them in the Top 25 Best Restaurants in Wine Country. I happened to be in Napa running some errands and decided to finally check them out. I met the owner who was pretty chill and friendly plus took my order. I was there for the chicken sandwich of course, but also wanted to try their Philly Cheesesteak sandwich I've seen on their menu. I also ordered some seasoned fries and a Mexican Sprite. The fries were nicely seasoned and crispy. The chicken had the perfect crisp to it and was juicy inside. The coleslaw inside gave the sandwich a nice tangy twist, while the hot honey had a nice balance of both sweet and spice. I did have a bit of a challenge attacking this since it was a huge sandwich, but I definitely liked it. The Cheesesteak was a bit messy (in a good way) but was a nice size for a full one; probably should have gotten a half one but oh well. The sliced steak was tender and juicy, while I also enjoyed the flavors of the cherry peppers and garlic mayo. Would definitely order this again. This was an experience I'm glad I finally had the opportunity to check out. Will go back hopefully soon to try some other items.

If you want proof that How You Mac'n is amazing, just ask my 16-year-old son and his friends…read more We ordered a tray of loaded mac for his birthday and it was gone in no time. We were already fans before attending a grad party in June where they catered and it was by far the biggest hit of the night by all who attended! Now my son regularly eats dinner, then heads out for a "second dinner" at How You Mac'n whenever they're open. The leftovers become lunch the next day, and he and his friends have practically turned creating the perfect mac combination into an art form. Great food, huge portions, endless sauce options, and a menu that keeps teenagers talking about it long after they're done eating. Plus the owners are super friendly! Hoping they get their brick-and-mortar location soon because Napa needs it! 10/10 recommend.

Honestly super disappointing. Giving this a 3 star because these folks were so nice and the churro…read morewas phenomenal. Also really good ranch lol. Overall this meal was less than stellar. Ordered a bunch of stuff incl the Mac n cheese bowl, large chicken sandwich', churro. The chicken sandwich was gigantic but it was so soooo dry. Also they don't put any toppings on it, literally just the fried chicken, and a bun. I guess if you pick a sauce you'd get that too? The fries were really well seasoned and had super high potential, but they were cold/old. Had probably been sitting out for a while. Too bad bc they could've been rly rly good. The Mac and cheese was mediocre at best. Overcooked and just not that good man. The saving grace was the churro. Maybe the best I've ever had. V good!

What a cool little spot to get burgers from. Don't get intimidated by the prices as the portions…read moreare relative. I had a tough time trying to finish a double royale all by myself. An order of fries was enough for me and my wife. We also tried the pastrami royale and it was fantastic. The pastrami was crispy and added a unique flavor and texture profile to the burger. I think it's better than bacon! All the flavors were on point as all the condiments on the burger were evenly portioned. Will definitely come back and next time with a bigger appetite. (We came early on a Sunday so the ambiance was very quiet. I can imagine the place being full and entertaining during the busy hours. Parking was also not a problem for us as we parked right across the street.)

First time here and I'll definitely be coming back for the burger…read more We ordered a single and double Royale with tots and a whole pickle on the side. The burger was seriously good. You can actually taste the meat, and the bun pairs perfectly with it. The tots were a little too salty for me, but the whole pickle was fresh and crunchy. This tiny hole in the wall spot is located inside Armistice Brewing. There are plenty of beer and wine options, plus slushy drinks and micheladas. Walk inside and look for the lit up Butters Burgers sign in the corner. Customer service was great and our food came out pretty fast. Tip: Grab a Royale and pair it with one of the drinks from the brewery. Taste: 10/10 Serving Size: 10/10 Price: A little pricey at around $15 to $18 Cleanliness: 6/10, tables were sticky Will I come back? Yes
