Holy hot chicken, Tampa Bay, a new spot for the beloved delicacy is back open in Seminole! Joella’s Hot Chicken, a Louisville-based fast-casual restaurant featuring hot chicken and made-from-scratch sides, re-launched their Seminole restaurant on Wednesday, September 2, unveiling new menu items, additional service capabilities, and offering their best deal on the company’s famed jumbo chicken meal.
We’re here for the crunch, folks.

Feed the flock at Joella’s Hot Chicken
With a location eight minutes away in Largo, the Seminole restaurant closed in an effort to streamline operations and prioritize safety measures during the unprecedented pandemic. The much-anticipated re-opening accommodates customers’ needs for safety with the addition of curbside pick-up and takeaway meal packs that can “feed the flock”.
“We took some time to evaluate how we could meet the changing needs of our customers in an effort to give them the hand-crafted comfort food they craved and also a dining experience they would enjoy. The family picnic packs were born out of our desire to offer our guests more ways to enjoy our fresh, all-natural chicken and made-from-scratch sides in the comfort of their own home,” says Christina Happel, regional vice president of operations for Joella’s Hot Chicken. “Pinellas County has embraced our hot chicken brand, along with our Southern hospitality and family-friendly atmosphere, and we look forward to being a part of the community again.”
So, what do you need to try at Joella’s Hot Chicken?
5 must-try items on the Joella’s menu
Banana Puddin’
Of course, I’m starting with dessert. Banana Puddin’ is a simple enough delight, and if it’s on the menu, you’d do well to experience it. The layers of banana and vanilla wafers are light and sugary sweet.
Pimento Fried Chicken Sandwich
These jumbo sandwiches are a delight. Crispy, crunchy, and the absolute day trip fuel anyone needs.
Chicken and Waffles
Jumbo chicken tenders paired with fluffy waffles: why isn’t this the main course of every meal? Diners have the choice between classic maple syrup or spiked honey, and I cannot recommend the spiked honey enough.
Heat Variety Pack
This is for the adventurous eater. It also allows those a bit nervous about overstepping the JoElla’s heat index. Sample a variety of different sauces – from the mild to the HOT.
Side of FRIES
Don’t leave without trying the parm garlic fries.
