Some of the Best Chicken, EVER!
by Louboutin27 at Citysearch
Southern Hospitality is one my favorite restaurants in New York. I heard a lot of hype about the place, both good and bad, and decided to try it for myself. I was seated fast and the food came within minutes of ordering. Don't let the prices on the menu fool you- you get enough bang for your buck. Their original chicken is the best! There is never usually a long line or wait for food. I have found that the best time to go is between noon and four during the weekdays since there usually is not a lot of people there. Overall, one of my favorite restaurants in New York.
- Pros: Speedy service, free delivery, clean facility
- Cons: Nothing

The Details on Southern Hospitality
The Extras:
Not get enough of the barbecue sauce? You can buy bottles of it, as well as T-shirts and hats, to take home with you.
Know Before You Go:
The restaurant only smokes enough meat for one day, so it occasionally runs out of certain menu items.
What to Drink:
Nothing goes with barbecue quite like beer--diners can choose from eight brews on tap, ranging from Bud Light to Stella Artois.
Fun Fact:
Southern Hospitality's executive chef, Ray Lampe (aka Dr. BBQ), is a champion in the worldwide BBQ competition circuit.
