The Red Chickz is a West Coast based Nashville-Hot Chicken quick-serve restaurant which earlier today announced a three unit development deal to open in Southern New Jersey, with locations planned for Mantua Township, Washington Township, and Gloucester Township
So let me be upfront with my 42Freeway readers… The Red Chickz team did not release any exact locations for these South Jersey restaurants. and I had not heard of the brand until I received the Press Release.
I wouldn’t be surprised if the locations haven’t been leased yet. It simply could be that a franchise agreement was signed which defines the franchisee territory, and now they will work on finding locations.
But by listing the three towns in the Press Release it seems as if they really have their eye set on Washington Twp, Gloucester Twp, and Mantua Twp. And I felt I had to cover.
Immediately one would think that The Red Chickz is the same as Dave’s and Asad’s Hot Chicken.
That being said The Red Chickz menu is much more extensive offering freshly prepared hot chicken tenders similar to the other brands, but also featuring cauliflower bites, fried fish and fried jumbo shrimp!
It leads to variations which include five different chicken sandwich styles including a honey butter sandwich, and even one made with French Toast bread!
The “Homestyle” category goes even further offering Chicken and Waffles as well as Chicken and French Toast.
A few salad options make the menu also, as well as… tacos!
Yes they offer a Nashville Hot Style chicken taco as well as a Baja style… with your choice of protein.
A variety of sides include chipotle corn ribs, cheese curds, cauliflower bites and of course potato wedges including the loaded wedges!
With cauliflower and tacos on the menu you can definitely pick up on the Southern California influences on the classic Nashville hot chicken menu.
The Red Chickz also offers shakes for dessert
We’re thrilled to be introducing The Red Chickz to New Jersey.
