Hot Birds is an authentic Nashville-inspired Hot Chicken concept that started as a pop-up in West Knoxville. It was co-founded by two childhood friends from NY that have a deep love for service in com…
My sandwich only came with one tender. Im not sure if this was intended or not , however I got the Sand and 1 tender with fries combo. Flavors on the sand were fantastic. Breading is solid and flavorful.
This is a breaded and dusted style tender which you would find typical at any REAL hot chicken place.
I enjoy reasonably hot food and the middle of the road here didnt disappoint. I had 2 more levels and the tender I ordered one step higher leaving only the final heat to be tested later. I enjoyed the flavor of the extra spicy before the final 2 flavors.
Fries are exactly par.
Cheese sauce is the same from the baseball game.
Chicken is the star here. If you like a batter fried and dusted hot chicken the price warrants the quality.
Mertals cost more and does not boast as hot of chicken.
Have not ordered a large order but would consider it.
6/10
Please consider my scale counts a 5 as par or agreeable. Middle of the road.
Vida in Knoxville gets an 8.5 for me.
The Kennedy gets an 8
Brass pearl 7.3
Hotbirds is some of the most solid hot chicken available in Knoxville.

The tenders themselves are flavorless and dry as could be. Its just a dry (dusted) heat with no flavor, just heat. I'll not be getting this place again
