The customer service was amazing. We are not locals Cleveland and Shreveport but we felt right at home. The fried ribs and the jambalaya were a hit. Everything was amazing read more

Chicken’s Kitchen - Fried ribs - Soul Food Near Me - Harvey, Louisiana

Situated in the space that used to be a Cuban sandwich store...they just opened Sept 2020 and were quite busy, but fast, at 1pm on a regular wednesday. They have a couple long tables inside where folks can eat in, and a little dessert counter in the back which looked delish. The ladies who work here are just the nicest folks, and you can tell they are proud of the food they are serving up. I picked up some of the juiciest chicken tenders I've ever had, which came with 2 sides, and was more than stuffed afterwards. You get your choice of about a dozen sauce to go on them and they obliged my request to try a different sauce on each piece!! Will be back on a different day to try some other things for sure! read more

First time customer here! Honestly don't walk, run to this place! The food & service was a 10/10. There was a wait for the food, BUT it was worth it. Today was my first time trying " candied " green beans and they were AMAZING! Definitely will be back. read more

It was delicious by far, tasted awesome and the sides were really good. I will definitely go again and again.

Went there today. The food is fantastic. I had the red beans and rice with chicken tenders corn bread roasted carrots and a side of Mac and cheese. The red beans were excellent. The corn bread was sweet and delicious wasn't dry at all. Them tenders were the best I've have seasons perfectly. I usually need sauce for my tenders but they didn't need it. They were so juicy cooked perfectly not over done at all. The Mac and cheese so good. Last but not least them chimmys ..... OMG the amazing grazing was AMAZING!!!! The staff was super friendly and helpful. read more

this place is hard to come by! at least it was for me!but absolutely worth the wait and multiple trips! their hours are 1030-3 but they are usually closed by 1, because they sell out so fast! EVERY DAY they sell out!!! they have a designated menu each day, so be keen on that. they also post on their instagram when they sell out so you don't have to guess and hope for the best and drive over! classic southern foods, that don't miss a beat. read more

The Stuffed Cornish Hen was delicious. The okra and rice was pretty good, and so was the mac and cheese . I will definitely be back.

The food and service that is provided are outstanding. Bring a foodie from Oklahoma trying this food brought me back to my granny's kitchen.

Stopped in for lunch while in Gretna on 5.25.22 around 1:30pm. Was told they were sold out of chicken. Not sure how a chicken restaurant runs out of chicken but will be back to rate again in a month. Weird! read more

Really good food . Although it would be considered a hole in the wall restaurant. The people are very helpful and courteous. I really wanted to try those fried ribs, unfortunately I came on the wrong. The blackened catfish with mashed potatoes and seafood sauce was delicious. !!! You've got to try it and for dessert Bread pudding. I was very satisfied when I left read more

When I say GOOD!!!! I mean GOOOODD!! This place doesn't disappoint! From catching his pop ups to moving into his own building phenomenal! The family atmosphere and the kindness from the staff is wonderful. The menu is different every day so you will always have something to look forward too. Wednesday's is Wing Wednesday and have a variety of different flavors. I order his Bayou Bliss Chimmys (boudain stuff egg roll with spinach and cheese) but ate them before I could make it home. A go to spot please know the lines are long so get there early or he will sell out. read more

The fried ribs were amazing!!! The Mac and Cheese were good but not 5-star. Don't want to be a downer - I will definitely go back! The place was neat and clean and the staff was very accommodating. read more

If you're in the are visiting NOLA, take the short ride outside the city and visit this place! My friends and I went on a Wednesday around lunch time. There was a short wait but the line moved pretty quick and the food was worth it in the end. The menu changes daily (sad we couldn't go back for Fridays menu) but this place doesn't disappoint. The portions- large, value- excellent, and most importantly the food- super good! I ordered the catfish platter with Mac and cheese, cabbage and greens as sides! The fish was seasoned and fried to perfection! There's also another business selling desserts there which were good as well. The staff was very friendly and we got to meet the owner. Definitely recommend this place! read more

I wish Yelp had an option for more stars in the event of an emergency. This is one of those times! 5 stars just doesn't cut. I'm in Nola for business and stumbled across this gem thanks to a Yelp collection of Black owned businesses in the city. My husband and I each had the blackened salmon- his with the linguine and corn maque choux, mine with the cream cheese potatoes, green beans, and crawfish hush puppies. I also added the seafood cream sauce which is good enough to drink! We were blown away. The flavors, textures, smells, I mean every single part of the meal was phenomenal! This is by far the best meal I've had in a long time. I'm still trying to figure out the magical green beans. They start out sweet but then a lil kick creeps in. Did I mention that seafood cream sauce?!?! We will definitely return before leaving the city. Oh- be sure to arrive early! Their hours are 10:30 until sold out, and when I ordered at 12:30, I got the last 2 servings of salmon. Jesus loves me y'all. Won't He do it?!? read more

This place is the bomb. Food is very good, and get good portions for the price. Service was really good as well.

The food is really over hyped it wasnt terrible or anything jus so many better places i can think of on the westbank off the top of my head and they really need a better system for waiting customers its too hot to stand outside and wait to order read more

Food was delicious not bad of a wait we came at 1:30 ish it was soo good. me wnd my boyfriend tried to come here for awhile and we finally got the chance. it was worth it. read more

Listen...I had Chicken Kitchen for the first time today and - MY LORD - it was unbelievably delicious. Perfectly flavored. Those fried ribs (first time ever having them in life) were special and all the sides were top-tier, some of the best I've ever had in New Orleans. Don't get me started on the bread pudding...glad I went against my conscience that wanted me to skip the dessert. I can't wait to enjoy Chicken Kitchen again read more

Great food! Great service! Food had an amazing taste despite rhe long line it was totally worth the wait!

We got there pretty late on a Monday (by about 1:30) and they were almost out of everything, so definitely get there early! We were lucky enough to get a fried chicken plate with sweet peas, corn bread and collard greens. Also got some rice with the leftover braised meat gravy. This food is no joke!!! It's the best fried chicken I have ever had in my life. The seasonings were superb. Everything had such rich and tantalizing flavor. I wish we lived here so we could go back. The service is a 10/10-they are so kind and friendly. Don't sleep on this place!!! read more

I didn't get to purchase any food every thing was pretty much sold out on the menu. I have been told the food is great! People wait outside for them to open just to purchase food. They have something different daily when they are open. I will make an attempt to order food there again. read more

To say I was the last customer before 2pm I was not disappointed. My daughter wanted to try them bt sadly everything she wanted sold out. I had fried ribs, black eye peas & potato salad. That was yesterday, so we tried again today 1/26 for her got there shortly after they opened this time. I just wanted to try the cabbage & rice bt....... When I saw the buffet I got bbq chic, cabbage & rice, sweet potatoes & cornbread!!!! read more

I had the pleasure of first tasting food from here at a wedding he catered a few months ago. I was talking about the food nonstop because it was so good! I finally found his IG and to my surprise he was opening a restaurant. I was ecstatic!! My favorite is the Tuscan Chicken, Chicken's Tenders, Five Star Mac & Cheese, Crawfish Hushpuppies and those delicious Who Dat Chimmys!! His hours are limited so you have to get there early but it is SOOO worth it! read more

The food is great. They season the meat. This is a so-full (soulful) place as you can taste. Just fyi: There no comfortable space to eat in this place as it's small but many people take out. I tried the pork chop, sis had the bbq chicken. hi Go check it out in Nola. read more

Absolutely incredible! Can't believe I waited so long to check this place out. Food was incredible, large portions, good prices, and quick friendly service. Will definitely be back, couldn't be happier with the experience. read more

Okay y'all. I have been wanting to try this place for over a week now after seeing them on Instagram. As I walk in to a small line, nothing unusual per pics from Instagram. They line up about an hour and half prior to opening. That's got to tell you something. I'm hit with the this wonderful aroma. Is that LOVE I smell? Why yes it is. While standing in line, which moves quickly, I'm trying no to drool on myself or the person in front of me. As if trying to figure out which of the days special and sides your going to get wasn't overwhelming enough, they have a dessert booth with a wonderful young lady and her fabulous creations just before the exit. So for my first plate, I went with the stuffed catfish, smothered okra, turkey dressing and potato salad. The second plate is the fried ribs. Did he just say fried ribs? Yes I did. Dirty rice, seafood dressing, and cabbage. I have yet to try them when getting home cause, the wife is still sleeping and I don't want to die. I did have a little bite of each side and they are I incredible! If the sides are this wonderful, you know the main is going to be fire!I did try one rib and that was so money! It was seasoned and fried perfectly. Some will say anything fried is good. No, no, no. Sometimes it can be over seasoned or over fried. This was perfection. These folks know what they are doing and putting in that secret ingredient in, Love. This place is legit. The food is amazing and the staff is extremely nice. While waiting in line, I told the owner and a gentleman, who I believe may be his dad., that I had been craving them for over a week. His dad said I will be back and he isn't lying. This place is full of love and incredible scents. If you love food like myself, y'all need to hit them up. Much love and future success to Chicken's Kitchen! From your newest fan. Update as of 9:30 pm, we had dinner. Mind you that I picked this up at about noon. The wife and I just sat across from each other with smiles on our faces with google eyes from the food. Both of us sharing each plate and happy dancing in our chairs as we ate. We both are looking forward to many more incredible meals for them. Update 2: Desserts. The Banana Pudding is nice and creamy with plenty of banana and wafers. I'm particular about my pudding and this is one of the best I that have had. The Turtle Brownie is nice and light, not overly chocolatey or rich. I'm not a big chocolate person, however this I could eat a ton of. This young lady is creating some wonderful treats. What I'm excited for and it's pre-order only, is the Banana Pudding cake. Yes, you heard right a banana pudding cake! read more

Amazing food. Always consistent! Great staff and fast service considering the amount of ppl they serve!

Today was my first time. There was a line I read positive reviews about this place awhile back me and my daughters went. The whole set up was beautiful from the food to the desserts. We ordered $75 in food and then $20 on desserts. The food portion was just right. Well worth wait and the drive. The kool-aid was different, but delicious and my sugar and blood pressure readings will be off the charts because of this good eating. Shame on you owner of Chicken Kitchen lol... we didn't get to take a picture of everything because of course we ate ours. I did take a picture of my husband's food he is so lucky we were too full to share his. You get an A+ keep up the good work hospitality, service and quality is everything! We will absolutely be back!! Thanks and have an awesome day. read more

I'm still in my car, in the parking lot of the Chicken's Kitchen, and I am in complete awe. This food has touched my soul like no other. If y'all don't come try it you are in fact missing out on a blessing. Enough said read more

This is the best take out restaurant I've been to this year. The food is always consistently delicious. The chimmies are a signature appetizer and so delicious. They offers signature New Orleans meals as well as a sophisticated and vegan options. The staff and service is great. The servings are well worth the price. The flavored lemonade is amazing. The is also a dessert shop within the restaurant, Anointed confections, every single thing there is ah-maz-ing. I guarantee that you will leave this place satisfied! And that you will be back again and again. read more

Not only is this business black owned, but everything is made fresh and ready to serve ! Marlon is one of the best and will change your mind on the traditional "supper plate". The plates are packed HEAVILY with food ( the only plate where I don't mind if my food touches lol ) Also, Christian's sweets are to die for ! Guaranteed to have you looking forward to a cheat day or a nice glass of wine paired with a sweet treat ! read more

The food and the desserts is fantastic, the staff was helpful. This was my first time but it will not be my last

Big tasty portions of yummy goodness, staff was super friendly, most definitely will go back again!

Food taste like your grandma seasoned it for real! Everything was good. I personally love the convenience of hot plate lunch because I can't normally take long breaks. Everything was hot hot too! I just wish they could actually make it to 3:00 pm with the food...that goes to the quality though read more
