Fannie Lou's Gourmet Chicken & Waffles

I made my inaugural visit to Fannie Lou's Gourmet Chicken & Waffles tonight. The chicken was AMAZING and the mango cheesecake blessed my spirit! I will definitely visit again!

The chicken was so juicy with the perfect seasoning. Paired extremely well with the waffles and served with butter and syrup on the side with a pepper and onion garnish. I've lived in memphis 38 years and never had chicken this good.

Nice little place, we chose to sit outside due to the place its self was small and tight. The cashier wasn't as friendly, but sometimes ppl don't mean anything by it it's just their nature. I got the waffle and wings. My son got the party wings and Mac and cheese. The waffle and wings( nice size wings) was superb, although I was kinda of skeptical about onions and peppers topping my waffle. It was more appetizing than I expected. My son got the lemon pepper wings with a side of Mac and cheese.it was pretty good as well, I probably should have gotten my own Mac and cheese but I was still trying to get over the $4.00 price for a can sprite, no refill. For the 3 of us, it was $92.00, I enjoyed the meal overall. The parking is... well, it's Downtown Memphis.

The name insinuates that it's a family environment, sit in type of restaurant. Actually, it's more of a run in and run out style restaurant. The owner of the old Cheesecake corner has opened this quaint little place in honor of his mom. I can only rate the desserts (not the food). That's why I rated it a 4. The blueberry cheesecake is quite tasty. It's not made with Philadelphia cream cheese. It has more texture but it's fabulous! Warm the brownie for 15 secs and is every bit of dilectable in every bite! For people taking a walk in the neighborhood, it's a spot to stop in and pick up a quick throat guzzling beer or water. I'm not a chicken and waffle kinda girl but I suggest you stop by and try it.

Atmosphere is nice. Very cozy. Very welcoming, almost homey even though it was our first time. There is limited seating however; they have outside seating and it would be an awesome space if warmer. They made the most with the space provided. The menu is concised but with enough variety. The food was great, well seasoned, well proportioned and very filling. Servers were awesome; brought the food, kept checking on us, and even gave us free water. For a dinner of two, you’ll spend $50 for a filling meal with enough for a to-go box. The cheesecake corner is a great end to a meal if you still have space. For $6 a slice, again huge slices, you can really bump up the score to a 9/10 ($20)
