Hot Lola's - Arlington

The food is fresh but you have to wait for a while…about a full 20 minutes. We ordered the chicken sandwich meal and a 3 piece drumsticks. The flavor is not something I’m used to (definitely different than your normal fried chicken flavor). One good thing about it is that you just order from a couple of kiosks with no person trying to sell you anything else.

Imagine the best spicy chicken sandwich you possibly can. This is better. I recommend OG hot level for a kick in the mouth. Flavor wise this delivers at any spice level though. Marinated chicken, combined with piping hot super crispy crunchy outside is just amazing. The spicy seasoning mixes with the small amount of oil on the outside of the chicken and gives your mouth a smackdown of deliciousness. Hot Lola's is best the reason to go to Ballston Quarter mall. *mic drop* Fries are good too.

Part of upscale food court with self ordering kiosks. Chicken comes breaded and fried with differing levels of spiciness. There's a chart explaining the levels. You can order chicken sandwich, tenders or drumsticks. Level 2 spiciness is flavorful and not spicy at all. Plenty of seating indoor.

Really good chicken sandwich. And the waffle fries were also great. Good size portions and not too greasy. Overall great experience. Highly recommended.

Went here today and when I say this place was amazing! Perfect spice level. I got the Shy Guy because I can't really eat too spicy. It was perfect. The fries were great as well.
