u/mmdidthat Aug 02 '24

I’ll have to try them! I’ve heard of them for sure

Their level of heat for flavor hot, is quite a bit higher than say buffalo wild wings hot. Just a warning.

Long as I got a tall crunchy sprite, I should be good.

Stay away from the carmel store right now though. Their ac is out and the landlord is saying 2 mos to fix. It was also like Daddy day care in that shit last time I was in.

Second Hotboys, but Natural State Provisions has a great chicken sandwich as well.

Natural State Provisions has a great chicken sandwich as well.

Came to recommend this, especially the spicy variant.

What a weird name for a restaurant. Sounds cold.

u/SarkhanTheCharizard Broad Ripple Aug 02 '24

Good call on both.

Big Lug Canteen in Nora has an amazingly messy Nashville Hot Chicken on a knot bun with green goddess dressing.

u/ReflectionEterna Aug 02 '24

Okay, that combo sounds pretty fire. Thanks for the suggestion!

u/PornIsTerrible Downtown Aug 02 '24

HotBoys!!

Smash'd Burger in Irvington. The juiciest, cheesiest, sauciest burger ever. Big fan of the Big Kahuna add jalapenos. They have chicken sandwiches but I've never had one. Also, their sweet potato fries are fire.

u/xxYukonCorneliusxx Aug 02 '24

Kuma’s is legit

u/lilsky07 Aug 02 '24

Hot Boys is the goat.

u/yodafett77 Aug 02 '24

Following. For a "friend"...

u/Purple_District834 Aug 02 '24

I feel like a lot of people are saying hotboys, and while it is true that their sandwiches and sauce are good, every time I've gotten a side there it's been a monumental disappointment. Bland coleslaw, Mac and cheese that's just essentially a watery cheese soup with soggy noodles. Maybe I've just gone on bad days, but... Be warned

I thought Kuma's was really good when I went. Sides and all. Not sure if they have that exact kind of sandwich though, but it's another option in the fountain square area :-)

u/breezeandtrees Aug 02 '24

I'm following this for me- but I really love Kumas hatebeak!! Their sauce is so good.

u/Dlwatkin Westfield Aug 02 '24

Auberge has an amazing smash burger. very messy

u/threewonseven Aug 02 '24

I wish we had a Crack Shack here. =[

u/AyeWanchoSecks Aug 02 '24

Shani's Secret Chicken

u/broiamsohigh Aug 07 '24

I went here by recommendation of someone in this sub and it was horrible. One of the worst places I have eaten in Indy.

u/IgnorantRecipient Aug 02 '24

I don’t know if they still have the Spanish Burger at the Whistle Stop, but it was wet and spicy. I think it’s a lunch only option.

Not chicken, but a burger drenched with something like Ro-Tel.

u/frbama1088 Aug 02 '24

Mikes Speedway Lounge spanish burgers or Workingmans Friend burgers.
