The chicken’s crispy, hot, and tasty. The place is downright fun, with an urban beer garden and a drive-thru, as well as in-house seating. The quirky menu includes Kool-Aid pickles— a hot dog stuffed into a pickle, then battered and fried like a corndog—and a South Side take on poutine.
Dish: The dark-meat chicken Nugz are exceptional, especially paired with the peppadew aioli or Provel cheese whiz.
Drink: The Bloody Cluck—Tito’s vodka, house Bloody Mary mix, Red Hot Riplet rim, and fried chicken slider garnish.
Tip: The restaurant constantly hosts special events, from ramen nights to shrimp boils.
