“ We came all the way from FL to visit DC and was told that this place has the best fried chicken! This was truly a great experience eating here. The bathroom was clean and the staff member was very welcoming. He gave us a whole run down of the menu. The spice level is very hot so be careful if you're not a fan of spicy. They have a plain option which was still very tasty! I will recommend this place to all my family and friends that want to travel to DC. ”

“ Took me a bit to get my food, they were busy. The table and seating layout was very structured. Initially I was unsure of where to pick up my order. Thanks to the layout I was able to easily navigate. The cashier was smiling and very polite. My order: Chicken Sando (I like mine spicccccy), Honey butter waffle fries Chicken Sando (spicy): B+ - let me tell you, when I say bangin... I mean BANGGGGINN Honey butter waffle fries: C - fries and sauce were delicious Would I come again? Definitely, already have hehehe ”

“ Excellent service! Fast and the food is definitely worth it! I like spicy food and boba tea and it definitely balanced out! Good quick bites and flavor was good. ”

“ Loved visiting this location in Bethesda, absolutely thrilled there's one in Columbia now. It's expensive but the flavor is worth it. The Koran styled fried chicken has a light and crispy skin, excellent seasoning as they season it again once it's cooked. The cider slaw is perfect to cut the heat. I always order a side of it with tenders. The honey butter waffle fries are basically dessert- so delicious, nice and crispy, and sweet. ”

“ Amazing chicken and just to warn you it is extra spicy. We got the medium and hot chicken sandos and the medium is hot and the hot is extra hot. We had the entire medium and half of the hot one. We also got mild and medium chicken tenders as well as the hot and extra hot chicken bites and my wife had a hot one and it was quite hot and well save the extra hot and rest of food for tomorrow for dinner. We got UberEats BOGO deals which made the food very cheap. So glad we tried Hangry Joes! ”

“ Did you know a certain queen keeps hot sauce in her purse?! She'd legit love the hot hot chicken sandwich #hotsauce #spicefood I've finally found a spicy chicken sandwich that packs a spicy punch. Here's a little back story, I've purchased hot spice chips, other chicken sandwiches with waivers and other spicy fake item -- they weren't worth the spice hype. I cook with Thai chilies and jalapeño, so I'm confident on being able to handle the heat. Where'd I find this mythical spicy chicken sandwich?! It was at @hangryjoeschicken and the choices for extreme spice were Hot and Angry Hot. It was my first time, so I decide to go with Hot. It was GOOD, cooked well, juicy and not dry. And it was deliciously spicy. I can't wait to go back and try the next level up of spicy. Travel often, eat well and live deliciously. ”

“ I loved, loved, loved this location! Handy Joe's Hot Chicken in Silver Spring is the best! Best customer service I have ever experienced in my entire life. As soon as I walked in, I was greeted with a friendly hello, how are you and a great big smile. Employee who I believe was the owner, was so attentive and helpful with the menu. Even with the other folks who came in, she took the time to show them the menu and point out different options. Customer was having a hard time with the card reader and she assisted him ethically. She was such a gem! She brought my food to me, that was really kind of her to do. My food was amazing, hot, and delicious. The coleslaw goes perfectly with the sandwich. I ordered Tostitos on the side and received a generous portion. I've read others reviews, please be mindful that the spice level, "No Heat" clearly states "may still be a little spicy," therefore medium will be spicy. If your spicy level is low, don't order it. The location was clean and well organized with all the supplies needed. Great atmosphere. Great leadership. I will be back to try their bubble tea! Plenty of free parking. ”
