★★★★★ 5.0 Regina Romanoff · Dec 2025

Ordered the 15-piece chicken meal and it was honestly so good. The chicken was fresh, juicy, and full of flavor, and the portions were generous. Everything tasted hot and well-seasoned, and it was perfect for sharing. Definitely would order this again!

★★★★★ 5.0 Husnain Asghar · Dec 2025

Mars Hot Chicken was an absolute blast—pun intended. The Combo Number One (burger, fries, and a drink) was fire: juicy, crispy, and totally crave-worthy. The flavors were bold without being over-the-top, and everything tasted fresh and satisfying. The people behind the counter were super friendly, making the whole experience feel warm and welcoming. If you’re looking for good vibes and great eats, Mars Hot Chicken is the move.

★★★★★ 5.0 Edward Boyle · Jan 2026

I had the opportunity to eat here. I love fried chicken. Love it. I have never had this style chicken, as it was very unique. I had a chicken tender ( huge portion), french fries and a chicken sandwich. My family was in the food service business and served over 12,500 meals a week. The chicken was the tastiest that I have had as it was fried in tallow the highest end cooking oil one can buy and also the healthiest. (it was moist and cooked perfectly , made to order) The portions were good. The sauce was terrific and the spices were also. Having had food service operations I also always take note of the restaurant cleanliness, flow and origination from all aspects, and I see good things here. I also watched to operators interact with other patrons and saw nothing but smiles on both sides

If you love a delicious chicken sandwich, this is the place to go. The chicken was so juicy and perfectly done. The fries were perfectly seasoned. And I love the sauce they use! They also have smash burgers (which I'll have to try next time). It's also right by the beach if you want to take a walk after. Highly recommend this place.

If you are craving the perfect fried chicken sandwich, you have to stop in. They fry it in beef tallow and serve it with this sauce that is out of this world. The flavors that happen in this sandwich will hit the spot like nothing you have ever had. Make sure to ask for extra Atmo sauce cause you’re gonna want to get a room with it!!
