Heaterz Hot Chicken

Great food and even better atmosphere!!! The chicken is delicious along with all the sides. I will definitely be back. My favorite is the street corn and potato salad with the nashville hot chicken strips.

Best Fried Chicken Sandwich Anywhere! Try the Street Corn and greens too!

I saw them on the news yesterday and found it to be the perfect go to after my bike ride! There’s a new contender in the chicken tender business. Huge chicken portion and good size buns. Great flavor but not too hot for the Nashville hot. Really cool fries that are like a hybrid between curly cut and steak fries. Street corn is satisfyingly sloppy messy. Will be back soon with my riding buddy.

Always great to have a new dining option. The name is pretty self explanatory for what to expect, but just so you know your options the standard options are(dry, Nashville mild, Nashville Hot, or Nashville BBQ): Chicken Sandwich, 8 wings, 6 shrimp, 3 or 2 Chicken tenders, or 2 jumbo Drumsticks. Sides (one with standard meal): sidewinder fries (seasoned and pretty thick), loaded potato salad, slaw, collard greens, or street corn. Bigger than sides, there are more appetizer like options: spicy cheese curds, fried pickles, and fried cauliflower. Wings can be done in bulk. And some family dinner options are also available.
I came in the day before Grand Opening and had the Nashville Hot tenders and street corn - dipping sauce: House garlic. Both were delicious. The Nashville hot was pretty spicy, but stilled retained a great flavor. Paired with the dipping sauce, it was a good balance for someone looking for spicier options without being an entry into “how spicy can you handle?”
Show them some love, but any new place will need time to learn how to deal with a rush, so be patient.
Some seating is available inside and out, but would also be a great takeout options.

Good first experience! I work nearly across the street a few days a week so it's always great to have new lunch options. I ordered at the counter and was given an accurate wait time for my food. I got the sandwich (Nashville hot) with fries & ranch dipping sauce and brought back to eat in my office. All were good! The fries are a pretty unusual cut that I was a bit suspicious of, but they were delicious. I love Nashville Hot Chicken while I wouldn't call this the best in St. Louis, I would say it's a very good an adequate execution of the dish. I'll be back regularly, I'd imagine, and look forward to trying the wings & tenders as well as some of the sides. Welcome to Kirkwood!
