Dear Royal Fried Chicken, I just want to say that your lunch special took away all of the stress that I experienced at work. My boss a d*ck and my job stinks, but sadly,no one else wants to hire me….but enough about me, your falafal sandwich was off the chain,your banana pudding was legit, and a can of ginger ale to chug it all down all for only $7.00 dollars. Wow! I felt renewed after eating your delicious falafal sandwich, but the sad part was that I had to return to work. Bummer! but hey, at least that was the highlight of my day!
So I gave in and decided to fulfill my craving of a 2 piece and a biscuit. (Anyone out there watch RuPaul's Drag Race?? Mystique?? Anyone…??)
I yelped "fried chicken" in my 'hood and this lovely establishment popped up. I've always passed by it because I thought it looked questionable, but after reading a few reviews I decided "YOLO" and went for it.
Not bad! The guy behind the counter was very nice. For $5 I got my 2 piece, biscuit (which was really a plain roll but thank goodness for that because if I got something smothered in butter, I'd end up at the nearby Methodist hospital with a heart attack after finishing my meal) IN ADDITION to a small cole slaw (which was pretty damn good) and some mashed potatoes and gravy. I'm a small eater so I didn't finish everything- hooray for leftovers.
Stop by here to take a break from supporting "the man" and instead, support the hard working neighborhood locals.
The devil inside me has been eyeing this place for quite some time. And I can be as high-class as the next guy – you know, order the fish special at market price, swirl the wine around when I go for a bottle like I really know what I'm doing, even splurge for dessert when I'm feelin' frisky. But, on the opposite end of the foodie spectrum, fried chicken just speaks to me. And I crave it. Too often, most likely. And this could-be-sketchy, no-frills joint called Royal Fried Chicken King was just askin' for it well before I set that bell a-ringin'*, struttin' through that front door.
At $4.50 for two pieces of fried chicken, fries, and a biscuit, this trip to instant obesity is well worth the price of admission. The breading is thin and crispy, and holds on tightly to the hot and juicy meat, resulting in some of the more manageable fried chicken I've had in my day. Its reddish tint got me expecting something spicy, but it was pretty mild in the heat department. Still, this is damn good fried chicken. The helping of fries is roughly two giant hand-grabs, and although the biscuit was nothing more than a soft roll, at least it wasn't dry. And, again, ringing in at under five bills, any minor complaints within this review should be taken with quite the grain of salt.
Let's not forget to mention Royal Fried Chicken King offers 36 combo meals, covering the full range of American fast food, all of which will run you less than eight bucks – the one exception being the 15-piece Buffalo Wings deal (with fries and a soda) at $11.50. The red-and-white tile, luncheonette decor evokes blue-collar sensibility and is surprisingly less dingy than its hood exterior might lead you to believe. What I'm really trying to say is – this place is legit. Becoming a regular here could be quite the dangerous endeavor, but at least it won't be hazardous to my bank account. All hail The King!
*OK, so there's no bell. But there totally should be.
I'm not really into super fried food but I will admit if I had to have fried chicken, I would go here. It's both cheap and flavorful. The sides are kinda whatever.
This place is like every other fried chicken spot, they have tons of stuff on the menu, it's unhealthy, cheap, greasy, but it taste good, and satisfies your craving for chicken. Delivery is fast, the place is clean. No complains here.
Ordered from here for our Superbowl party and we were happy little campers with bellies filled with delicious friend chicken. Luckily, they deliver to park slope.
We ordered the 15pc with mash potatoes, rolls and coleslaw.The fried chicken was nicely crispy and the inside was juicy (even the white meat)! The only thing I was upset was that there weren't a lot of dark meat pieces …they were more breasts than wings and drumsticks. As a dark meat lover, it was a bit upsetting but I got over it fairly quickly.
No wow factor with the coleslaw, mash potatoes and rolls. I would just recommend getting the fried chicken.
