Fiesty Chicken down for the count

FeistyFeisty Chicken & Grill, with locations in Rancho Cucamonga, Ontario and Glendora, has apparently flown the coop.

I first noticed that the Glendora location was closed several weeks ago. A sign posted in the window indicated they were remodeling and would reopen soon.

Never a good sign.

Last week I drove by the Rancho Cucamonga location. Same thing.

This week I checked on the Ontario location and found the sign you see above. No work was actively going on inside the restaurant.

I’m not holding my breath.

Feisty Chicken rose out of the ashes of the first U.S. Oporto franchise locations.

Feisty had a menu very similar to Oporto’s, carrying over the Australian chain’s grilled chicken, chicken burgers and wraps and adding hamburgers, bowls and expanded salad options.

Feisty opened just over a year ago. The chain’s website and Facebook page are still active, though the last post on Facebook was from December of last year.
