South Austinites can get a taste of Nashville this week.

Nashville-based hot chicken restaurant Hattie B’s will open on South Lamar Boulevard in the former Maria's Taco Xpress space Feb. 28.

The details

Hattie B’s menu features hot chicken sandwiches, wings and tenders with varying heat levels, and pimento mac and cheese, crinkle-cut fries, baked beans and potato salad accompaniments. Dessert options include banana pudding, peach cobbler, root beer floats and Belgian-style waffles with honey butter and syrup.

Guests can anticipate a selection of craft beer from Texas- and Nashville-based breweries, and a cocktail menu featuring the Shack Water—a spinoff of Ranch Water with gin, grapefruit and Topo Chico, and a dill pickle-infused Bloody Mary.


What else?

The space features a 78-seat indoor dining room and a large outdoor patio with additional seating, cornhole, and giant-sized Jenga and Connect 4.
