Amazing food! Very fast even though there was a line. Really nice people. My friend said this is their favorite spot for fried chicken and I’m inclined to agree. ?Parking: There’s about a dozen parking spots, including disabled parking.Wheelchair accessibility: There’s a disabled parking spot plus a ramp to access the building.

Spicy strips are where it's at! Don't forget the variety of dipping sauce.

I ordered through doordash and the food was really good. Very well seasoned chicken, they even gave me an extra piece. The rolls are AMAZING. I also ordered baked beans and fries. I really enjoyed my meal. I would definitely recommend this spot, that chicken was on point!

This was the original ezells and the culture is not what it was known for. How does it go from what it’s known for to this! Not one black person working there at all! My man was like back in the day it was nothing like this! The food was terrible we threw it away! Over done chicken, terrible mashed potatoes super runny, and the Mac n cheese was not cooked all the way. This was so disappointing for what we paid! Ezells was founded by a black man with soul food in mind! This is not it!! We won’t be back EVER!!!!Replying to the response from Ezells: obviously you’re an equal opportunity employer and will hire any race. The point is that there was 100% Hispanics working and no other race. Also since when did their specialty become soul food. Never! So with that being said you should consider the roots of Ezells and the original recipes cause what your making is not it! The customer service was not good either! It’s just all bad and would never go back or recommend.

The young Mexican chick tried to tax 66 cents after I tipped 11 cash because their tip jar was empty for hot sauce. Sistah at the front was cool but the essays be rude and now I see why the tip jar empty . Mind u I been coming to original ezelles since early 90s . This location now offends me after that last
