The restaurant has become famous for its super hot Reaper Fried Chicken but also offers milder varieties for those who don’t like it too spicy. Some of their other specialties include top loaded milkshakes (M&M and Oreo are the true standouts) as well as crinkle cut fries and cole slaw side dishes.
