You definitely need to stop here when you’re in the area. The food is amazing. Our group tried different types of chicken sandwiches and everyone was amazed at the flavor and sauce combinations. This is an outside food stand, so plan accordingly. A little pricey but so delicious.

Listen, the BEST fried chicken sandwich I’ve ever had! We also ordered fries and potato salad! Everything together was like food heaven!

I will be eating fried chicken sandwiches only from here from here on out! It was seriously just that good!

Other notes, we got to the restaurant right as it was closing! The chef didn’t let us leave though without making us something! We planned to come here too, so it was such a great...

Having watched Hell’s Kitchen, I had to check out this spot as it was started by Rock Harper, the winner of season 3. The chicken was seasoned pretty well, and so were the fries. Having the chicken with pickles makes it taste even better. If I ever come back to the DMV, I most certainly will be coming back to this spot.
