This place is a sleeper hit. It's the best hot honey fried chicken sando in town: perfectly seasoned, slightly spicy, slightly sweet, piping hot, and delicious.

I am so picky when it comes to fried chicken and I have to say that this is the best I’ve had! Their chicken strips are served hot and fresh, not fatty, perfect amount of coating, not oily or greasy and has so much flavor. I highly recommend their paprika aioli and their salsa verde dipping sauce. Also, the young lady at the cash registry was so sweet and kind. She offered us cold water since it was hot while we were waiting for our food. Amazing food, service and atmosphere!

YUM! some of the best damn chicken in town. Love the ambience of Grand Central market. Lucky Bird is a unique gem amongst the multiple pizza and Asian food stalls in the hall. Staff is nice. counter is always clean. Chef personally served us our beer. The chicken is juicy with crunchy skin. coleslaw is very tasty too. And the potatoes are crisp and delicious and salty. Careful though, they’re very thermal when they come out of the kitchen and will burn your tongue! Pricing is a bit high for a couple pieces of chicken, but it’s comparable to the other food stalls in the hall and sometimes you just gotta spend a little more to get a little more. Will be back again soon. Thanks!

An unbelievably expensive chicken sandwich. $14 gets you just the sandwich, no side, no drink. They don't have combos and everything additional is $4. Before tip, the average order will be in excess of $20. That said, the fried chicken is amazing, just not justified at the price.

The Chicken Sando is GREAT. Really juicy and delicious. The staff here is very friendly. I've eaten there and had take-out and it never disappoints.

The fried chicken was well seasoned and it had a nice crispy breading, not crunchy, that was really delicious. The potatoes were well seasoned too and everything tasted fresh.

Great flavor and crispness on the chicken. Unique flavor that will make me think of this place if I tasted it again. Good option in this market. $22 for a 5piece bucket is a bit higher than fast food spots but this tastes elevated and worth it. The cornbread is thick and tasty. After a few bites the saltiness was much for me. I don’t eat cheese but I had to taste it. I’d come back and recommend. Reheated it in the air fryer and it was indeed delicious with just a little spice like I like it.

Lucky Bird has a small menu and they don't make much, but what they do make they take a ton of pride in. Their chicken tenders are massive with a savory, crispy outside and a flakey inside. Their mac & cheese is better than your mom makes, and their version of Frank's Red Hot rivals the original.

A Paradox on a Bun

The Hot Honey Sammie will change your life…It is simple in execution but complex in taste. The slice of American cheese is a honest dancing partner with the tangy relish sauce. The simple cheese slice and complex mayo/dill/relish keeps the senses building as the juicy, sweet heat, always fresh and hot breaded chicken bursts to the front and hits your taste buds like the star it is. When we are within an hour of GCM, we dine on Lucky Bird every time.
