Charles Pan-Fried Chicken - West Side

Charles Pan-Fried Chicken is both an institution and an innovator, with the Harlem flagship now an icon. You’re here for Charles Gabriel’s pan-fried chicken, of course, cooked up over the stove in massive cast-iron skillets. A whole chicken can take nearly a half-hour to properly fry: the fruits of those efforts lead to chicken with a perfectly browned crust and moist, flavorful inside.

Consider a combo with pulled pork or ribs. Takeout orders can be placed online.
