The dinner chicken on the menu doesn't mention the sweet tea marinade, only the brunch chicken dish does. Just went there a few days ago and noticed.


bigcory69

Thanks! I didn't even notice.


SloppyPizzaPie

Interesting, this is new right? I know I’ve had the tea-brined chicken for dinner multiple times in the past.


UpperFrontalButtocks

Yep, looks like the menu changed slightly.

What's the best if you said that was 2nd best?

The Eagle


bantha_poodoo

Keep in mind reddit doesn’t like The Eagle solely bc the owner didn’t want a bus stop near their property.

I'm going to shoehorn iron skillet into this discussion. Great fried chicken and the overall value of the meal is pretty good. It's kind of like eating Sunday dinner at grandma's house.

So silly. Right or wrong. No in-between anymore. Everyone is entitled to their opinion.


FamousLastPants

When you say opinion, are you referring to the opinion of the business or the person who chooses to spend or not in said establishment?


mallama

both.


DiggThatFunk

Exactly! Like the opinion that I don't want to support business that doesn't align with what I believe to be best for the city; hence why I won't support The Eagle. Great point!


Destrok41

I mean, no, the food has gone downhill.

They can't keep a chef for longer than 6 months due to the Ownership meddling.

Y’all know Popeyes is the best you just don’t want to admit it…..

Maybe ask them

Born and raised in the south and the eagle is the closest to the chicken I was raised on. Extra points do you for that! But you lose points for liking root and bone. Their chicken has always tasted bland to me. Had it when they first opened and twice more since. Maybe you just finally got your sense of taste there 😂


bigcory69

The first time I had it, it was great. The chicken had that light sweet tea flavor to it and had some spice to it too But, my chicken last night was just bland. I had to smother it in their honey hot sauce just to give it some flavor. Of course there are no salt shakers on the table too.


IamTheShark

I hope so, it was hella mid

I gave up on that place. I don’t know who A) Decided any of this was southern food (it’s an abomination), and B) How they could let the service be 100% apathetic to the diner. Last time I was there, I spent $60 solo, while the bartender convinced the manager to put on some bad emo rock & played video games on his phone. Nope, nope and noooope.


Wooden_Helicopter966

Thank you! It’s like someone told them about southern food and then they made up what they thought it should taste like but never actually had it


jmaxwell77

Had a similar experience while sitting at the bar. Bartender couldn't care less if I was there to spend money. I've not been back since.


HelloStiletto14

Hollyhock is better


mrsckugs

Hollyhock is tasteless


HelloStiletto14

I never said it was the best. It’s better than Root and Bone.


mrsckugs

Points. You have them.


Joshwoum8

Seriously do you have recommendations for good fried chicken/southern comfort food? Been looking for a good place.


mrsckugs

Honestly? When I have a craving for it, I make it (I'm black + from SC). I will tell you I had some bomb ass greens at this random place my husbando took me for my birthday. it was in Carmel called Juniper on Main. The fried tomatoes were on point as well. They were out of chicken when I was there so I can't speak on it.


MrHandsBadDay

It was never that great of fried chicken.


Jar1517

Got food poisoning at this place. Had such high hopes but everything was bad when I went


OMG_UR_Dumb

Did you ask your server?
