The line snaking out the door makes it clear that the crowd is fully aware of the restaurant's celebrity owner, Justin Timberlake.

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.
