“they’re offering a unique flavor profile that works well, Indian spices on fried chicken. Adding in the raita for tang and to cool off the heat + the pickled veggies really sells the whole thing. The buns they use are great as well.”

Get the or the vada pav, which some people like even more than the chicken. It's all dark meat with Indian spices, raita and pickled veg. The spice levels used to run to 5 and now stop at 3, and regulars say even the hottest one barely registers now. A few still ask for the old level 5 off menu.

“Don’t get me wrong, the chicken is still delicious, but it could not be considered spicy by any stretch.”

“They've completely changed the menu and toned down the spice levels. No more 4 and 5, and even 3 isn't what it was.”

“Went to Rowdy Rooster today and was super disappointed. They don't have their 4-5 level anymore and the highest one they offered- 3- didn't even set off my taste buds.”

“The flavor on all of them in incredible though.”

“It's still delicious (the pepper blend for it might actually be my favorite, real earthy flavors), but it's a mistake.”

“I would for sure get the 5 again, but only if I were alone and could feel pretty dazed.”

“Rowdy Rooster is the weird hit there. They're from the same people as Adda/Semma/etc, but it's Nashville style Hot Chicken (all dark meat, so juicy!) with Indian flavors.”

“I love that sandwich, probably my fave fried chicken item anywhere right now. The heat, the spice, the juiciness of the meat while remaining so fried, the balance of bread/meat/accessories, all very on point IMO”

“It was never that good. When I first went a few weeks after it opened, the chicken sandwich was fine in the sense that fried chicken was good, but I think the spice was unbalanced, the chicken was way too big for the sandwich and falling apart, and the bun was not up to the job.”

“Sandwich was so hot I couldn’t eat more than a couple bites and each bite was pure hell.”
H3
“What’s left behind is a decent but not spectacular chicken sandwich.”
