I heard about this spot from employees at Origins NYC. They always order great food so I figured I would try it out. They have no indoor seating but seating for 8 people out front. The menu is simple. They have sauces that you have to pay .50 cents extra for. They are most known for their chicken sandwich. I ordered Spicy chicken sandwich, lemonade and Mac and cheese. The chicken sandwich would have been amazing if it was fresh off the fryer. I bought and ate within 5 mins and the sandwich was completely at room temperature
I’m posting 5 stars because this restaurant has long been a favorite. Your food is delicious, Alexis is a great server, and you’re always patient and attentive when we visit. Today, however, was a disaster. I ordered lunch for my colleagues on your app early in the morning and was pleased to see I could schedule a delivery time. When the food was 20 minutes late, I called to check and was told that you were waiting on an Uber driver to pick it up. I came to get it myself, and asked for a call next time if it would be late. Your server had no patience for my request and said she had no control over it and walked away. When I got back to work I realized my sandwich order was spicy chicken instead of buffalo . I walked back to swap it out on the remaining time from lunch. The server told me that you all had a big catering order and my sandwich must have gotten mixed up in that. I don’t need your excuses, I need you to be the reliable, dependable place you were before Covid. I’m posting a picture of the sandwich I received. Is this the food you serve catering orders? It falls short of what I’m used to from you all. Please do better.
Great fried chicken at a very affordable price, with fast service! The chicken is nice and crispy on the outside, and the meat is tender and juicy - exactly what you’d hope for. The flavor from the spice is solid.Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: NoTakeout: YesDelivery: YesCurbside pickup: No
This place is sooo good. I wanted #friedchicken and that certainly what I got. The chicken is so juicy and flavorful it’s amazing and the price is definitely affordable. Hands down Four stars because I didn’t get any sauce
The chicken was dry and not much flavor. It seems like the pieces have been fried a while ago before serving. The mac and cheese is good.
Best mac & cheese I’ve had since leaving the south. It’s so good and surprisingly good prices. The sweet tea was perfect!!!
It’s fried chicken. Not bad but also not good enough that I probably won’t be back due to it being in far from the subway. The biscuit was one of the best biscuits I’ve had though. The coleslaw was ok. The bob sauce? No clue what I was supposed to use it on, didn’t feel like it went with the chicken only redeeming quality was that the prices weren’t insane Note: no indoor seating and it’s cold outside to be eating chicken on ice cold metal furniture.
What happened to this place? It used to be a restaurant. It used to have a cozy ambiance where you could go inside and order lovely food and hear Johnny Cash on the speakers. There used to be real plates and glasses and service. Now it’s just a takeout place with plastic sneeze guards where the bar used to be. And the food is served cold and prepackaged and you have to eat it outside in a urine-smelly street hut. I had to clean the table myself. No butter for the biscuit. Everything in plastic - plastic cups, plastic cutlery. I remember when this place was great. It was a huge let down tonight. I’ll never go back. Edited to reply to the owner: Yes, all the food was prepackaged. I ordered Mac and cheese and it was cold. I asked the person if she could heat it up and she looked at me like I had two heads. Then she came back with a replacement Mac and cheese in another prepackaged to go container. Do you all not even have a microwave back there now? And no butter for the biscuit? Everything in to-go packaging? This bothered me because it’s unsustainable in this new climate hell we’re descending into. I go out to dinner to eat in a restaurant, not to eat Popeyes on the street. Your restaurant bites now, accept it. It’s straight take-out. Finally, social distancing is over. Lots of other places are actual restaurants again with plates and service. Stop blaming the pandemic for your decline in quality. Peace
Love the food and have eaten here for several years. The food is great and one of my favorites. However, VERY disappointed that indoor seating is still not an option post-pandemic. Would really love to eat there, but outdoor seating is simply not an option in the winter.
Quick, simple, and tasty. This is a small restaurant in Alphabet City with a simple, reasonably priced menu that just hits the spot. Choose the buffalo chicken sandwich, and for a side, go with the mac and cheese. Evenings might be a little busy, but people come and go pretty quickly. We strongly suggest.
