The trend of hot chicken continues to spread its wings in the area with the coming of another restaurant.
The Red Bird is set to open at South Lakes Village Center, according to signage posted at the Reston shopping center.
The company did not immediately return a request for comment from FFXnow on when the new restaurant is expected to open.
The Reston location will be The Red Bird’s second permanent restaurant in Northern Virginia. A location in Vienna is expected to open this year, FFXnow previously reported. The company previously operated out of a ghost kitchen and held several pop-ups in Virginia and D.C.
Other hot chicken spots in the area include Roaming Rooster, Hangry Joe’s Hot Chicken and Dave’s Hot Chicken.
At The Red Bird, spice levels range from hot to the highest spiace level “Fck You Cra.” The company’s chicken tenders are marinated in a Red’s chicken rub and dipped in homemade breading. A final red rub is then dusted over the cooked chicken. Other items on the menu include chicken bowls and fries.
The Red Bird is negotiating leases for locations in Falls Church, Ashburn and Arlington.
