A new restaurant specializing in Nashville-style spicy fried chicken has opened in Castle. FireBirds Chicken is at 4155 University Ave.

The eatery's chicken is offered with a choice of five seasoning levels, ranging from no heat to daredevil. It's then served up in the form of double-patty sandwiches, sliders or tenders. Sides include fries, mac and cheese and coleslaw.

With a four-star rating out of 70 reviews on Yelp so far, the fresh arrival is getting solid feedback from clientele.

Adam M., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on Nov. 16, wrote, "Tasty food with great potential. I was very excited to try this place after seeing the hype around Nashville hot chicken in other cities. Overall I wasn't disappointed. The food is savory and in your face. The Big Ol' Sandwich will leave almost anyone full. The fries were well-seasoned and had a great texture."

Swing on by to try it for yourself: FireBirds Chicken is open from 10:30 a.m.–9:30 p.m. on Monday-Thursday, 10:30 a.m.–11 p.m. on Friday and Saturday and 10:30 a.m.–9 p.m. on Sunday.
