Seriously, if we all even pretended to be as happy as we genuinely are when a satisfying meal is set before us, the world would be a much better place. At Hot ChikN KitchN, we’re genuinely THAT happy. Not only do we find pleasure in cooking up a spicy sandwich for you… we also believe in the magic of spreading positivity in our community. We live for the euphoria a delicious meal can provide. Founders Mike Sarago and his son, Anthony Sarago, along with partner Chef Frederic Gilmore strive to harness the power of food to bring people together.
Whether you’re slamming some Chickn & Waffles or munching on Chikn Tenders smothered in one of our unique hot sauces… you can enjoy them knowing they’re made with the best ingredients & infused with love.
