I finally had the opportunity to try this chicken place! I've been wanting to visit since they first opened in Georgetown. It didn't disappoint at all! The fried chicken was incredibly juicy and flavorful. We also ordered the coleslaw and mac and cheese, and everything was delicious. Additionally, it's a bar, making it the perfect spot to hang out with friends after work if you work in Seattle. I highly recommend this place and will definitely be back when I'm in the area. read more

I wouldn't know authentic Nashville Hot Chicken if it bit me on the ass, but this is good fried chicken. Nice and crispy without the grease!! I got it spicy and really liked it. I would give 5 stars, but don't to be consistent. You have to really knock me out for that. Highly recommended though. read more

this was pretty interesting because it consisted of two completely separate foods with complete opposite flavor profiles starting with the chicken - I ordered the Nashville Hot spice level, which was the second highest spice level you can get. The first and most obvious thing about the chicken was that it was spicy. Like really spicy. That has to be the spiciest chicken I've ever had and it's not close. I was still able to finish both tenders without adding any extra sauce (the waffles helped) but my mouth was on fire at the end - I had to get in some ice cream While normally I like spicy food - I can't say I liked this spice as much because it seemed more like spice caked on to the breading as the seasoning itself - kind of like the only point of the breading was to be spicy. I didn't taste many other flavors in there. This made the eating experience of the chicken not super enjoyable as I didn't really enjoy each bite as much as I was just getting through it To add to this, the breading was nice and crispy, but it didn't attach to the chicken as well as I would like. It frequently peeled off the meat itself. It also didn't quite have the oily texture of good fried chicken - was a bit dry As far as the meat itself - I thought it was fine - nothing special but also nothing too bad. The thing that I really liked was the portion sizes of the chicken. While it wasn't super easy to get through, I did like the fact that the chicken filled me up I really appreciated the spice level in the chicken - but wish the breading was better and had more different flavors Get this if you're really craving spicy food The second part of this meal were the waffles - which were astoundingly good The waffle was soft but had real weight to it - each bite had a depth of dough that was fantastic In addition, the whiskey butter and maple syrup made the entire thing a truly amazing sweet experience It complimented the chicken so well - adding an excellent side flavor to each bite The way I would eat this is by cutting a piece of the waffle off, and either putting it in my mouth and taking a bite of the chicken or combining pieces of both onto a fork and eating it that way. The waffle's sweetness made the chicken tenders tolerable and significantly improved the overall experience read more

Sisters And Brothers - Chicken and Waffles - Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

My boyfriend and I love this place. It always feels like you're walking into a different world with their cool vintage interior and piles of toys on the window sill. We're always seated quick and the servers are super nice and attentive. The food here is excellent. Hot, spicy, and flavorful. It always feels like a challenge to pick just two (sometimes three) sides because they're all so good. The okra is my personal favorite, but the fried pickles are great too and the slaw has the perfect amount of horseradish. As far as drinks, they make a good michelada but their carnivore Bloody Mary is super fun too. Absolutely recommend that everyone try this place! read more

If you're looking for some seriously hot chicken, this place doesn't play with their spiciness! I regularly eat spicy food but this place still made me sweat. I love the vintage old school decor of the place and the service is super nice. Unfortunately, some of the food didn't match up to my expectations. The chicken from this place had good flavor, but it didn't taste fresh. Admittedly, I've only gotten takeout so maybe it'd be better if you ate there. The chicken was a bit dry and the breading wasn't well adhered. It felt like chicken that was cooked a while ago and then re-warmed in the frier. The flavor of the breading was good and super rich with the hot oil soaking in though. The sides are alright here. I love fried okra and there's not many places in Seattle that offer it. The fried green tomatoes were good. They were crispy and I loved the pimento cheese it came with. The portion sizes are also pretty hefty for the price so I had leftovers for a while. read more

Ive been here before when it was in George Town and really enjoyed going back in the day. It wasn't the same & it was a disappointment. The chicken itself comes out with way too much breading, so you end up working through a thick, heavy crust before you ever get to the meat. There's good chicken under there, but the ratio is off enough that the flavor gets lost. The sides didn't quite balance things out either. The mac n cheese was a little on the dry side, missing that creamy comfort you hope for, and the coleslaw didn't bring much flavor, feeling more like a filler than a fresh, tangy contrast to the fried chicken. That said, everything seems fresh, the portions are generous, and with a lighter hand on the breading and a little more attention to the sides, this place could really shine. Service was great! Is an interesting place inside, filled with games and tons of random decorations. read more

Sisters and Brothers is a fun place to meet up with friends. The restaurants decor is eclectic and a great conversation starter. Plus the service is really nice! I recently went with a friend and really enjoyed my time. I am quite grateful that one can choose their spice level because I for one like well-spiced food, not spicy. We ordered the hot catfish (Baby Hot) and the chicken and waffles (Naked). The portions were huge! These were meals that could easily be split into two, so I will try to keep that in mind for next time. The chicken and waffles was served with maple syrup and a whisky butter. I'm happy to report that although the chicken tenders were "Naked" they were well-seasoned and quite yummy. As for the catfish, honestly "Baby Hot" wasn't spicy and tasted pretty yummy. I wish the crunchy outside stuck better to the fish itself because it was a bit difficult to eat. I look forward to coming here again to try out more dishes read more

Driven by here countless times, finally popped-in at 11AM opening last Sunday, great decision! Our chicken meals were generously portioned, moist, very tasty crispy outsides! The Mac n Cheese is creamy style (which I prefer). We found the Mac n cheese a teensy bland but that was ok; brought our leftovers home & embellished w/ more cheeses. Friendly personable staff, very clean restaurant w/ a great divey-vibe. read more

Several YouTube influencers highly recommended this place so I had it on The List of restaurants to try. The outside of the place is not attractive but the interior was eclectic and visually stimulating. It's a cross between a curio shop and a Chinese dive bar. I ordered the chicken...of course! Thus is what they do, after all. The waiter was friendly and accommodating. The chicken? Burnt, dry...and not fresh. It tasted just like it looked. I was seriously disappointed. It had spice but no flavor....no seasoning. It wasn't the hype. It wasn't a bad day. It was just bad. I am continuing my search for the best fried chicken in Washington. read more

Sisters And Brothers - Fried chicken plate (dark meat) - Bars Near Me - Seattle, Washington

This was a good experience once we started eating the food. We ordered online for takeout and had to wait 1/2 hr past the supposed pick up time for it to be ready. So no pictures because we were starving! We had a dark meat platter with Cole slaw, and the thigh took up most of a dinner plate. The meat was moist and tender and the excessive breading was crunchy and delicious. We also got the wings with collard greens, and they were delicious! Collard greens good, Cole slaw also good. Lots of leftovers! read more

Admittedly I've been to this place within the first month they were open, but didn't have much of a memory, so went back many years later. We stood at the front counter close to 5 minutes before being greeted or seated. For having very limited customers dining in, this was odd. The dining /bar areas are very dimly lit with so much character with toys, figurines, and other various items around the top of the venue, We were seated and immediately informed that a party of 40 were coming in 20 minutes to the section we were seated in. (We asked to move prior to their arrival and were switched to a table more toward the front. The wait time on 2 wings / 1 side for each of us was about an hour, (there were only 3-4 other tables with diners). One of 4 drinks was also sent back, When the food arrived, I was impressed by the MASSIVE chicken wings! After breaking away 3 plus layers of breading, you'll find the wings are average sized. The server, Al, was a saving grace for this visit, he was real apologetic about the situation and checked on us while scrambling around prepping for the big party trickling in. (Note: the Mac n cheese was off the menu to us, as the party had purchased all remaining amounts) I've heard about sisters and brothers being on the more expensive side, so as expected, the meal described above with 2 drinks and tip was just over $100. Thank you for the effort Al! read more

Great music. I would have changed the tunes too when Bjork came on. Solid hand cut fries, huge portions crazy crispy crunch in the chicken. I would say slightly greasy heavy paprika but the heat was consistent and smooth. read more

You would have never expected a space so large from that unassuming exterior. Sisters and Brothers interior is both eccentric yet cozy; you'll be surrounded by warm lighting and vintage Garfield plushies. As for the food, it is just as comforting as the inside of the restaurant. I can't disagree with some other reviews that say it's pretty pricey, however! For the amount of food you're given in a portion, I have no complaints about the corresponding price. My partner and I were eating leftovers for about two meals after. The only thing I did not really like was the mac and cheese, but my love for the other dishes (the fried okra!!!) outweighs the minor blandness present in that particular side. Service here is also excellent :) everyone seems to be on the same wave length of the environment they're working in and we had no issues getting seated or getting our food. read more

Years ago, I had a delicious Nashville Hot Chicken sandwich at Sister's and Brothers when they were located across from Boeing field in Seattle. I was excited that they were still in business after all these years. They were our first stop on our trip back to Seattle. Their current space is a bit disheveled and very dated. No one was at the door and I had to walk into the kitchen to see if they were open. We were seated in an old leather booth that has seen better days. Our order of hush puppies came out first and were fine. We ordered the Nashville hot chicken with fries, Nashville hot chicken tenders and fried green tomatoes accompyied with a dipping sauce. Our food arrived piping hot and generous helpings, but those are are the only redeeming qualities here. The fries were undercooked, while the fried green tomatoes were limp, flavorless and just plain terrible. The chicken was crispy, some spice and decent but not even close to my memory. Our waitress was occasionally attentive, but not interested in "how was your food." A total waste of a dining experience that I had previously cherished. It is obvious that the restaurant is in survival mood. It is off my Seattle List, but I'm not sure the staff really cares. If you are going to Seattle and searching for good Nashville Hot Chicken, take Sister's and Brothers off your list. The restaurant, staff and food are all very tired. read more

Sisters and Brothers is a good option when wanting comfort food, and specialty drinks while watching games. The service and food are both equally good. The overall space is accommodating for families, but still a casual/dive bar ambiance. When you can always aim to support local small businesses; I definitely recommend! read more

As diners drive ins and dive visits go this one was meh... the front house guy was very cool and the place has a super hip fin classic rock vibe. It's certainly a great place to visit. The food was okay, I had a dark meat chicken sandwich with Seattle hot sauce and it was pretty hot but tasty. The chicken was remarkably crispy but sadly over done I ate it so I can't throw this place under the bus. The service was through the roof good. The front house guy was very friendly and personable.

We had already made a couple of stops earlier in the evening. Catfish and Caesar Salad at a pop up from the husband and wife team at Pizza by Ruffin (excellent), a quick stop at Situ Tacos, and now craving something a little sweet, but not totally dessert we headed to Sisters and Brothers. Splitting an order of Nashville Hot chicken and waffles was exactly what we were looking for. A cold bohdizafa to wash it down didn't hurt either. I have been a big fan of this team since their days right across the street from Boeing Field. They never disappoint. read more

We walked in and were greeted by our sweet server. She was so pleasant. We loved the dim lighting and 80s soft rock. Start with the fried green tomatoes and the Seattle coke. Very similar to "Mexican coke." Made with real sugar. Our entrees were the 3 chicken wing meal with macaroni and cheese. Those wings were more like pterodactyl wings! They were huge! Crisp to perfection and very juicy. The chicken and waffles came with 2 tenders that were more like legs! Super delicious. The waffle was nice and fluffy. Don't forget to order a Mai tai, you won't be disappointed. read more

Went for a walk around Queen Anne (ish) and decided to stop by here after we were both craving KFC (me more than my partner). We are so glad we did. You step into a restaurant that throws you into a 90's vibe dinner - seated at the many booth. We both got the chicken sandwich (obviously) and instant hit. I finished my sandwich is a record breaking time...I think 3-4 min??!! And it was big...do not be fooled. The fry was so perfect and I felt full after but not too weighed down. If you're craving KFC or any friend chicken place at all, don't be afraid to stop in here. You won't regret it!!! read more

I'm highly suspecting that they mixed up our sandwiches. So he was complaining his wasn't hot enough and I literally could not eat mine without pain and suffering. Otherwise when I did have taste buds the chicken sandwiches seemed pretty decent. Interior is dingy and feels very much like a seattle dive bar. Location is right off a very busy street with not much going on around it but perk is they do have a parking lot. read more

Popped in for lunch and the whole place is a vibe. Not sure how else to describe it but will say I loved the eclectic decorations. Server was super nice and made sure we had our drinks full.

I personally think that this is the top fried chicken joint in Seattle in 2025. As someone who grew up eating Ezells (I used to pronounce it Eee - Zeah - llZ) while sipping Faigo soda I spent lots of time in the CD where there were many fried chicken options. I used to l go to Tony's to get the Viet fried chicken, Saigon deli to get their fried chicken cut up in bulk for banh mi's, and went to the grocery store in the CD by the Fact that had fried chicken. There are many other restaurants like Skillet. BOK BOK, and Oasis that make good chicken. For me it's about balance. Sisters and Brothers has a nice flavor profile of spices and heat that makes me want more. The fry is not as greasy and there is more of a crispiness and tenderness that is harmonious. I have noticed that Seattle fried chicken is good but it's more on the mild side. I could be wrong and this is my opinion. Seattle doesn't seem to do bold and in your face. Red Apple market is a good example back when they were open in the Prominade on Jackson. It was little to mild heat and good but not great. I really enjoy the southern flavor, the hush puppies and the various sides. I've eaten the chicken and other offerings many times and usually do take out because the line is long. Even after bringing the chicken home after 10-20 minutes the food is piping hot and the flavor profiles don't change. Everything is satisfying and I look forward to eating in person. Part of writing Yelp reviews is to showcase the local diversity of flavors and techniques. This restaurant is a Seattle staple for sure. read more

Went on a thursday around 6pm with a group of 7 and got in pretty quick. The restaurant is pretty big with a bar. When I first looked at the menu it was pretty pricey but then when the food came out, I understood why. The portions are massive! I got seattle spice chicken tenders and it came with 3 huge pieces with a side of mac and cheese. The chicken was so flavorful and perfect amount of spice for me. It was juicy and crispy. My friends got the nashville and they said it was good but the spice was only in certain spots. The mac and cheese was soooo goood. I'm already planning my next trip back. The quality and the quantity is so much better than dave's hot chicken. Our waitress was very patient and kind. She made our experience great! read more

The service was quite friendly and nice from the start! The restaurant is really dark, with cool decor :) The food tasted great in the moment, with the sheer amount of oil. However, all of us woke up the next morning feeling sick. The chicken and waffles were VERY hard, with a lot of excess breading, to the point where it was difficult to cut with a metal knife. The fried catfish was great, with substantially less breading than the chicken (but still a lot). The sides: okra, fries, green tomatoes, and hush puppies were AMAZING. Mac and cheese was average and the slaw was quite bad. Great spot for unhealthy food but know you will feel bad the next day :/ read more

Came here to try their Nashville fried chicken. I ordered the wings with slaw. I did wait a few minutes until someone (initial server) asked me what I needed. They did have a sign that said "please wait to be seated" and as a first timer, I figured I'd wait and someone would help me. I told him I was waiting to be seated as the sign said. The wings were MASSIVE and tasted of Nashville hot. When you eat the breading which was crunchy and had tons of crunch, the breading would fall off and you would just be eating the meat. It was all tasty and moist but it was hard to eat in general. The slaw was a good palette cleanser. It could have used more creaminess but otherwise good. The server that helped me during my meal was nice and kept checking in on me. Lastly, the server (initial server) had mentioned to another couple that it was half off mimosas and had not mentioned it to me. I would have ordered that instead of the cider I ordered if I had knew even though there was a menu. read more

Rating: 6/10 I ordered a chicken and waffles plate that came with a small container of syrup and butter. Overall, the portions were large. The waffle was really good, perfectly soft and delicious with the syrup and butter (which was a bit cold). I wish there were 2 waffles so I could sandwich both chicken tenders, because 1 waffle wasn't large enough to completely hold both tenders. The dish came with 2 large pieces of fried chicken with nice crunchy breading and moist chicken, but the breading was oddly very salty. I ate the entire waffle, but I could barely finish 1 tender since it was so salty. I'm surprised that most of the other reviews hadn't mentioned how salt it was. The service was alright (we came with a reservation for 8), our server seemed a little busy with other tables (we were there between 12 and 2 pm on a Sunday). The whole restaurant had some cool decorations and was dimly lit with lights that sort of looked like lanterns. For parking, there's some next to the restaurant, max ~10 cars. I probably wouldn't came back unless the saltiness was adjusted, but the chicken was good besides that. read more

This is an unusual restaurant, which we enjoyed almost more for the ambience than for the food. That said, the food is good. Both my husband and I got the chicken tenders, I got it "naked", meaning no spicy heat whatsoever, and it was definitely prepared that way. My husband got "baby hot", which is the lowest rating of spicy hotness; he said, though that even at the first level, it was almost too hot for him. The breading on the chicken is a nice thickness and very crispy. However, I must say that two of my three tenders were a bit on the dry side. The third one was moist and definitely better. I got it with a waffle and the waffle was quite tasty. My husband's side dish was the mac & cheese, with bacon. Which he said was a "spiritual experience"! I got a couple bites of it too, and while I wouldn't necessarily describe it as he did, it was definitely very, very tasty. We've been there before and had their catfish, which was excellent, and will probably be what we get there going forward. As I said, the ambience is really fun. Very kitschy. Old faded paintings on the walls, probably picked up at Goodwill. A couple of video games from the 1980s, the "table top" type where there's a chair on either side; one of them was a Pac-Man! And then there is the vintage toys that are sitting on a shelf just below the ceiling. All kinds of dolls and stuffed animals from back in the day. So if you were born in the 1960s, 70s, or even 80s, this is a blast from the past. There is a decent sized parking lot, and even on a Friday at 7:30 we had no problems finding parking. Though there were people inside, it was far from packed. Most of them seem to be seated closer to the bar. We were seated at a booth immediately, and the food came in a short amount of time. Very friendly and efficient staff. Seems odd to me though that they close at 9 PM on a Friday... I would think that 10 or even 11 would be better, but maybe not enough people know about them. I wouldn't be surprised if takeout is their main business, as there are a lot of apartment buildings around it. In any case, we really enjoyed our time there (despite the slightly dry chicken), and I do recommend it! read more

This is one of the better places for fried chicken. There are different amounts of heat you can get. I got Seattle hot which did have a little fire.

The chicken is so juicy, and when they say XXL they are not lying. The price is up there but the portion and quality for the price is spot on. There is a good size parking lot and the inside has a bar as well. The customer service was amazing. We arrived 15-20mins before closing with the mind to order to go. Last minute we decided to eat in and the server was so nice. He did not rush us at all and always told us that we can take our time since the staff would still have to clean and such before closing. I really appreciated how he noticed we were kinda rushing since it was near closing and reassured us. The food is very good, nicely seasoned. The coleslaw is not bland and I'm here for it. My spice tolerance is not spectacular but I ordered the 3 spice because others rave about their great spices so I had to try it. For my people who also is not spice tolerance friendly, 3 spice is quite spicy but the flavors are worth it. My boyfriend ordered the tenders non spicy and it still had great amount of seasoning. Sauce dip is extra but I do recommend it. read more

I give this place five stars because it's is very hospitable. The price of the food was also fair for what I got. Like this chicken sandwich is THICCC. Also I liked the vintage feel of the place. It actually made me kind of happy to be in a more laid back setting. It was eclectic with a lot of throw back pictures and memorabilia. My friend was visiting from Thailand. So it was cool that he got experience a little taste of the south while he was here in Seattle. I almost ordered all of the sides just so he could sample but we didn't have time. In terms of service they only had one guy working. He was really nice but very busy. He definitely still took care of us so kudos!

The fried okra was decent, very large portion, which I appreciated. The bone in chicken wings.. UMMMM I ended up sending these back as they were a tad doughy. The fries were nice and crunchy! Mac and cheese was okay. Quite bland. The catfish and fries were okay, the batter they used is a flour based batter and it steams the fish. Not my preferred taste, but it was okay. Got the Seattle spice. The tenders and fries were the best of the meals. The tenders were cooked appropriately, loaded with the Seattle spice. The hostess/server was very nice and helpful as far as seeing the sights! He gave lots of tips!!
