We showed up a couple hours before they opened, the door was unlocked and we wanted some bbq... We ordered catfish sandwich, pulled pork sandwich, legs, red beans and rice and coleslaw. Catfish was cooked perfectly, bun was soft. Smothered in the house bbq sauce this sandwich was a slice of heaven. Pulled pork was so tender. Soft bun, great sauce. This fried chicken is the best ive had. Someone compared it to KFC? Love the coleslaw, the Apple is a great touch. Red beans and rice are delicious, but I cant compare. Best bbq in the area, no doubt. read more

I really wanted to love this place. The staff were overwhelmingly nice and the atmosphere was homey as expected. The ribs were passable but not great. The greens were good but they had no vinegar sauce as is required in any Souhern joint. The red beans and rice were, well, some beams and some rice. Nothing special. Now for the really good....the chicken. It was outstanding....first rate and maybe better than my southern female relatives make. Go with the chicken. In the interest of full disclosure, I grew up on the Gulf Coast and was raised on this type of food. My standards may be a bit higher than the average Spokane diner in this cuisine category. I'll be back for the chicken, but will bring my own vinegar for the greens read more

Really great place. The atmosphere is all-south smokehouse. The flavor on the ribs is a great mix of smoke, rub and sauce. They don't just smother them in sauce but balance all three flavorings together. Buffalo wings are freshly fried and excellent. I literally have the staff hi fives in my way out. read more

See all

This is why I love yelp. Never would I have found this place without it especially given it's quiet and kinda shady location in a town I know very little about. Having a couple hours to kill, and not actually being very hungry, I thought I'd stop by to get some emails taken care of while hanging out in this funky, cool, comfy, and clean tiny little hole in the wall. Mind you again, I walked in here not being very hungry, but me being me, and with my deep seated fear of ever missing out on some good grub (I'm only in Spokane for a couple days) I couldn't resist ordering up a ton of these Southern fried classics. Five buffalo wings, a catfish sandwich, some coleslaw and some damn good collard greens and 20 minutes later and I'm happier than a clam at high tide. All the grub was fresh, clean, flavorful and worth every single penny. Most important tho and the reason why this place deserves 6 stars is the southern hospitality that comes with it. The girl at the counter took her time explaining the menu and couldn't have had more enthusiasm for the food she was about to whip up for me and the others. She was a genuine sweetheart that I would be honored to have working at one of my restaurants if she ever wanted to fly outta this strange big-little city. But, I'd never steal this jewel from the super cool cat owner that was cruising around chatting up the guests. He and this joint are the bomb.com and you def need to check this spot out. read more

Small hole in the wall restaurant that has the best chicken around. We were traveling through Spokane and stopped coming and going. A bit of a wait but that's what you do for fresh fried chicken. read more

We had a craving for good fried chicken so decided to try Chicken n More. It definitely hit the spot! The place is small, but cozy and squeaky clean. Nice booths and tables. The service is super friendly! They welcomed us and encouraged us to "sit and stay awhile". We ordered in. They don't fry the chicken until you order so we were advised it would take about 25 minutes. We relaxed and enjoyed conversation with the staff while we waited. It was sooo worth the wait! We had fried chicken dinners with two sides and a dinner roll. I had the macaroni salad and the gumbo. Amazing! My hubby had red beans and rice and loved it. The chicken was perfectly fried, with just the right amount of salt; juicy and delicious. The sausage and chicken gumbo was warm and satisfying. I can't wait to come back! read more

We are from the south, and the catfish and fried chicken tasted like home! The greens were dynamite, and the jalapeno vinegar was a perfect addition to them. This was a tasty jewel! read more

I called in to Chkn-N-Mo for lunch to be picked up early one morning. I expected to get an answering machine and to have to call back. However, I was created with a friendly employee who was happy to take my order. Having not visited this establishment before, I had a couple of questions. The staff was friendly and answered all of my questions as well as making sure that they had all of the information they needed for the orders being placed. The food was ready on time for pick up and the staff was friendly in greeting me when I arrived. The food was enjoyed by all at the business meeting, including myself! Their homemade dishes are straight out of the south flavor-wise as is their customer service. I ordered a 2-Piece chicken strip with Jo-Jo's and Coleslaw. Their signature BBQ Sauce is a staple with any of their dishes. It has a little kick to it and is the best BBQ sauce I've had this side of the Mississippi! If you are in the mood for a great southern meal with a home-cooked style you will want to visit Chkn-N-Mo. You can't go wrong with a heaping spoonful of Southern grub! read more

I live in LA and just got a craving for chicken n more's mashed potatoes, gumbo and fried chicken. Safe to say I think it's pretty great. Also their staff was so friendly :) read more

Ok. It's a dive. But a good dive. Born and raised in the American South and this is the only place in Spokane that I can find a catfish sandwich. Call ahead for chicken because they cook it fresh. Their fried sides are from frozen. Wish they weren't but I'll take hushpuppies any which way I get them. read more

Best best chicken sandwich in Spokane, no question. I've been going since I was a teen and the service is always excellent.

The food was good and the portions were fairly large. I had the catfish dinner. The breading could have used a bit more flavor but it was still good and a large piece fish. The gumbo had good flavor and did not skimp on the sausage. My favorite part was the peach cobbler. The only negative thing I have to say was it can get chilly every time the door gets opened. Try to sit closer to the kitchen if it is cold outside. read more

Best friend chicken in Spokane. In the Spokane downtown area. Locally owned for many years and offer great service. Really recommend fried chicken, mashed potatoes and red beans and rice. read more

The food is AMAZING. This place is a hidden gem. The ribs, chicken fried steak, red beans and rice.. everything is phenomenal

Best fried chicken! Super crispy and flavorful skin you can just eat the whole thing. And the ribs were yummy too. I had their rib/chicken combo plate. Highly recommend and will be back read more

I went here for the first time last Monday. I have to say it was bomb. I had the Gumbo. Which was off the hook. The cobbler was good to. Next time I go there. I'm going to try the Catfish. read more

Chicken, rice and beans and coleslaw is what was ordered. Chicken is the best I've had in a long while, sides were tasty and fresh too. Also of note, the place is super clean with comfy seating. What more could you want? read more

I wanted to love this restaurant, I really did. I was born in Mississippi and spent most of my young life in Alabama and Arkansas. I know good Southern food. I haven't had catfish is soooooooo long, and I couldn't wait to sink my teeth into a wonderful catfish sandwich. We called ahead for take out on Saturday evening. What comes with the catfish sandwich? Nothing. Hmmmmm. What comes ON the catfish sandwich? Nothing. Just bread. What?! A catfish sandwich should be served on grilled bread with remoulade sauce, coleslaw, pickles and tomatoes. The two other people in our party planning to order catfish sandwiches opted out. I decided to scale back and go with the Jo Jo potatoes. My daughter ordered the gumbo and a side of greens. Our order was ready when we rolled up! Points for that. But the Jo Jo's were pale and barely cooked, not golden and crispy as they should be. The gumbo was..... meh. The greens went straight into the compost. Maybe they just had an off night. There have been so many good reviews they must be doing something right. I will think about giving Chkn-n-Mo another chance. read more

I've lived in the northeast most of my life, mostly in NYC. Many of my tastes, howt, were formed during the three years I lived in Birmingham as a young boy. Chicken-n-More is the real deal. Particular favorites are the chicken, chicken fried steak, greens, mashed potatoes and gravey, and green beans. Haven't had time to sample more, but plan to next trip. read more

We were visiting spokane for the first time and looked for a BBQ place. This sounded good and we were not disappointed! Ribs fell off the bone; the chicken tenders were generous; the BBQ sauce was tangy and tasty. Wish we had a place like this back home. read more

Was waiting on my family so I randomly stumbled upon this place. Chicken was amazing, great breading and not super greasy. BBQ is delicious. Family operation the help was great and super friendly read more

This little hole in the wall in downtown Spokane is magnificent. The ribs were juicy, with wonderful homemade sauce. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy, but so tender inside and seasoned just right. Red beans and rice were a great side dish. I will definitely go back read more

Another Spokane Yelp miss. 4.5 stars? You cannot be serious. The fried chicken was a notch above fast food. And the sides were just not good - baked beans were runny and bland and the cole slaw was subpar. Service was friendly and probably the best thing about the visit. read more

First timer for Chicken~N~Mo yesterday & the food and service was awesome. Loved the atmosphere of this place too. We got the chicken, ribs, & catfish with the sides takeout for my mom's birthday celebration & we demolished everything. We'll definitely be back. read more

Best brisket I've ever eaten: moist, flavorful, fall-apart tender. And the catfish was terrific, too. A nice, thick piece of fish, moist, not overcooked, VERY fresh-tasting, ensconced in a crispy, scrumptious deep-fried coating. The owner is a friendly gent who clearly likes people and was fun to talk with. I visit friends in Spokane once a year, and after this visit, they plan to return soon. And I'll insist on eating there on next-year's trip. read more

WOW! Words can't explain. Can't tell my momma that this is the best fried chicken I have ever had.

What a find!!!! Best fried chicken in town, and the red beans and rice...delicious. One of those hole in wall places that I am happy we found. We will definitely be back. Oh, ps...the peach cobbler, amazing!!! read more

Chicken N More is the best for Southern food. Not just in Spokane, but anywhere that I've ever been. The owner of this narrow restaurant is straight out of Texas and brought the state's (and probably his family's) finest bar-b-q recipes with him. The chicken is breaded perfectly before being fried and comes out crispy on the outside, yet juicy as can be inside. They also serve More! Ribs and Catfish are the other main protein offerings on the menu. And there are also quite a few sides including baked beans (a mix of savory with a hint of sweet - very good), mashed potatoes with a bit of gravy, potato salad, greens, green beans, Jo Jo's, etc. I would give Chicken N More 5 stars for the above stated offerings alone, but I would give them a million for the barbeque sauce that is in containers on the table. It is literally the best sauce I've ever tasted, barbeque or other. I can't even describe it for fear of not giving it the respect that is due. Just trust me - try it. read more

Thanking God for these people having a restaurant in Spokane! The ribs are soooo good! Only thing missing is homemade mac n cheese & corn bread. Great family owned little spot to get soul food though, Will definitely be back. read more

Awesome completely awesome had the special ribs and chicken. Red beans and rice with a little hot sauce and green beans.

I honestly dont know how this place stays open. It is always closed and when it is open, it is empty. Service SUCKED here. A friend and I went in yesterday to eat and the teenie-bopper they had taking orders talked on the dang phone for 5 minutes to her roomate/husband or whatever. The food all seemed pre-packaged or prepared. Has Texas decor in it, but honestly the only thing Texas about it is the BBQ part of the sign out front. Skip it.. read more

Cats fish had a crunchy coating but inside was moist and tender. Greens were delicious. Potato salad and baked beans were simple like my Mom used to make. Fried chicken was excellent. Perfect balance of crunchy outside and moist tender meat. Gumbo was the best I have had. The place was packed with sit down and to go orders. Spokane loves this go to place for lunch. We loved discovering it. If you love deep fried chicken and fried cats fish, you must try it. The sides alone are worth a visit. Nice jazz in the background. Wonderful ambiance. Friendly engaging staff. Finger licken great! read more

Great BBQ, but even better people. I'm not at all religious, but the lady that runs the place is the closest thing this world has to an angel. A homeless person came in and just puttered about for a while, but she treated her like a human being, directed her into being a paying customer, and kept everyone else in the restaurant happy with the situation. I came out of the restaurant with a full belly (great prices!) and a warm heart. read more

My wife and I were in Spokane and decided to give this place a try. She is from Texas and I used to live in the south for many years. We weren't expecting to eat southern food in Spokane that was as good if not better than any southern style BBQ we had ever had. The next time we are in Spokane this place will definitely be on our itenirary! read more

Awesome! This place is the real-deal! I tried the Fried Chicken, with a side of Gumbo and Red Beans and Rice. The Chicken was fantastic. A delicious crunchy coating and skin with a wonder flavor. The meat inside was moist with great flavor. The Gumbo was the real-deal. I have had Gumbo in Louisiana, and Chicken N More's Gumbo brought me right back. They know how its done. The Red Beans and Rice was also very good, with the right spice and heat. But the Gumbo was so good, I bought a large order to take home with me. I cant wait to try their other menu offerings like the ribs and fried catfish. My only disappointment is that they are closed on Sundays, when I find myself in the city most often. Awesome product, Chicken-N-More! Keep it up! read more

Please don't claim Southern style food unless you actually know how to make ACTUAL Southern style food. If you want a cheap knock-off, then this place will work for you. But if you want actual Southern Food....then avoid this place at all costs. read more

Great Place, I am from Atlanta, GA and have missed BBQ since moving to Spokane. But Chicken-N-More is not only the best BBQ and Fried Chicken in Spokane, but could easily hold its own in the Deep South. The owners are also extremely nice. Great Spokane Restaurant read more

Great food...overly priced. I've been there a few times the last time(s) was when i went to find out info about take out catering...Quiet time of day...he quoted me but kept upping the amount I'd need. I said that I'd be back to place an order. I came during lunch time. He took an order from a guy behind me and then quoted HIGHER prices than he did 1 week earlier and when I said I wanted for pieces...he said not worth my time. This behavior is NOT ETHICAL... read more

This place rocks! It really does. It will shock you, because its very VERY southern and I honestly don't know what its doing in Spokompton. Its really small too, and most people don't know about it. Owned by nice southern people too. Good prices and yea, HUGE portions. I had a fish sandwhich...I don't remember what it was called exactly, but it was fricken awesome and I couldn't even eat it all it was so goddamn massive. It was like an entire fish. on a bun. and it was fried! read more

I just tried the three-piece mixed dinner with collard greens, red beans and rice. Awesome food! Very nice people
