This much-loved Southern fried chicken restaurant specializes in Nashville hot chicken, a spiced-up version of the classic.
It isn’t all super spicy at Flirty Bird.
There are six different spice levels to choose from when picking out the chicken meal you’d like to try. The “no flirt” option means there’s no heat at all, and the “scorchin flirt” boasts being the hottest chicken in the city.
It all depends on how brave you are. Once you’ve decided that, you can dive into the simple but delicious menu.
There’s a chicken sandwich, a chicken tenders meal, and flirty fries. Simple and easy is the concept here, and it works because the food is so good. The flirty fries come with chopped chicken, slaw, comeback sauce, and pickles.

Go in and get your Nashville hot chicken fix at this new spot from 5 to 8 pm before heading back out to the Calgary Stampede.
