The wings here never disappoint—always flavorful and consistently cooked to perfection. It’s an ideal spot for quick party platters. No advance notice needed—just walk in, place an order for 100 wings, and they’ll have them ready within minutes.

Easily the best fried chicken and fried rice combo in New Orleans. The flavors are incredible, and the prices are just as satisfying. The place may not look like much, but I make it a regular stop whenever I’m in town. Takeout only.

A neighborhood favorite with unbeatable convenience—you can pick up a soda, some liquor, and a delicious chicken plate all in one visit. A true local gem.

This may be the very definition of a hole-in-the-wall, but don’t let that fool you—the chicken is exceptional. While the fries and rice didn’t stand out, the chicken more than made up for it. Takeout only, with limited parking.
