This was a big deal for me. My first experience with truly authentic Nashville Hot Chicken. And it did not disappoint. Be ready for a wait as it's a busy and popular place. However it's completely worthwhile as the chicken was spectacular. Perfectly crispy batter and cooked to perfection. You can g
I decided to eat at Bolton's because I seen it on a show with Anthony Bourdain. Let me tell you it did not disappoint. The chicken was crispy, tender, and juicy. If it's your first time eating here the spice level is a little misleading but delivers. This is truly a Nashville institution and is what
Passable for chicken. Spiciest one out of the bunch (mild will.get you). Their rub is apllied lightly, but flavor isn't all there compared to the other big boys. Catfish was stupendous , would go back strictly for the fried fish.
Old neighborhood joint, kinda run down , but can see why it's a neighb
Bolton's is a Nashville institution and a forefather of the Hot Chicken so I was very excited to finally visit. We ordered the leg quarter, chicken on a stick ( because food on a stick is always better!) and the catfish sandwich. I found the chicken to be cooked very well and the seasoning was very
We saw this place on one of Guy's shows and just had to try it. The fish was great. Had a good flavor, and the hot is hot, so be prepared. Their wings are pretty big, and they're fried crispy. The wife didn't like the coleslaw, though. I'm not sure why. Overall, it was a good meal. If I'm the area,
Incredible chicken and fish. Absolutely delicious, and the most authentic! Everyone is super cool too. Don’t be fooled by the competition, this is THE spot for your hot chicken. Mac&Cheese is fantastic too!
The crew said this place has been there for 75 years if I remember correctly. I saw the catfish in the menu and had to check it out. Got the medium because I was told it was considered hot. It's spicy but not as hot as I was expecting. Tried the hot as well, which was hotter but not overwhelming. My
Their medium is very spicy. I got the mild and had to soak some of the spices off with my bread. Chicken was good. Sides were ok. Service was fast. Place is very old and not kept well. Women restroom was out of order.
Super solid hot chicken. Got to talk to one of the cooks for a while - real sweet dude! Adding some history behind our experience was awesome.
Also for those playing along at home - the mild is pretty spicy. I'd like to think I can hang a little with some fairly spicy stuff. The lip tingles were re
Everybody says you have to try Hot Chicken around Nashville. Well, we did. It was pretty good! However, I don’t know if I’d need to go back. The chicken breading was some of the best I’ve had on chicken tenders. The fries were fine, the Mac n cheese was ok, and the slaw was average for a restaurant.
This place is SO good! We got Nashville hot chicken tenders and the crust was crunchy but juicy and soft at the same time, the inside was juicy and tender and the flavor was perfect. I had leftovers and couldn't wait to eat it again that night. I will say though that when they say hot, they absolute
It's hot and I mean really hot, like burning, I had the medium level, the potato salad I had to throw it away unfortunately it wasn't for me. They do really good hot chicken though, I'd come here again, the guy at the counter seemed really nice 👍 I appreciate that. Dining room and bathrooms need to
Y’all…please take the name of this place literally…the chicken is HOT!!! Hahaha, aside from the heat, the chicken is legitimately so well seasoned & delicious. I simply got 3 hot tenders & as someone who prides themselves on being able to handle quite a a bit of heat, I could only manage to eat 2 of
Outside patio is pet friendly!
Bolton's has delicious fried chicken with a KICK. My husband LOVES spice and I got him the fries chicken with mild seasoning and he said it has a kick.
I tried a little bit of the seasoning and my mouth was burning lol
I won't say much , don't even bother with other reviews. Go here and get the fish , the chicken wings and the sides ...they are the definition of keeping it real. The owner and the chefs at the back are warm and friendly, I felt like home.
The food was fantastic! I got the medium and just be warned it brings the heat, I enjoy spicy food quite a bit, and it would definitely be at the high end of the scale most places. The sides were amazing. We had spaghetti, green beans, baked beans, mac and cheese, and Cole slaw. The place definitely
Everyone be warned... Do not be a hero. I love spicy food and got a medium and a hot. The medium almost killed me. My lips and tongue are on fire. I am driving a few hundred miles back home today and am not brave/dumb enough to eat the hot before getting in a car with my wife for the next 5+ hours.
