Village Voice: They brought Fried chicken on buttermilk biscuit with gravy and coleslaw, Brasied shortribs on Challah, Seared pork chop on challah, Muffalata and Crispy goat cheese on flauta bread to Choice Eats!
Anoop Ranganath: The buttermilk biscuit with fried chicken, cole slaw, and gravy is the best I've had in New York
Kat Lim: Chicken sandwich is amazing. The coleslaw gives it a nice crunch. It's the size of your palm so it runs a bit small.
Shelly Timmins: Love the pickle and cole slaw instead of bread basket. Hate the seven layer. It's really, really not good.
Stogie: They give coleslaw and pickles as table food and if you have a baby, you get applesauce and Cheerios. Will definitely come back when we visit next time. And the food is amazing and plentiful.
Gabriel Hayes: Love the pickles and the cole slaw. Some of the best cole slaw in New York City.

Monica Lo: Must try the Spicy Redneck, which is a fried hotdog wrapped with bacon, topped with chili, cole slaw, and jalapenos. Glorious.
David Lifson: Got the Spicy Redneck with a smear of cream cheese. Perfection. Bacon wrapped dog with chili, jalapeño, and cole slaw. (4 of 4 petals via Fondu) Read more.
The Corcoran Group: This is the place to experiment with your Dog toppings! We’re fans of the jon-jon (cream cheese, scallions & everything bagel seeds) and the spicy red neck (bacon, chili, cole slaw & jalapenos).

Joseph Fisher: Chicken is good but a but flavorless--way over-rated. Totally worth it for the beer, Mac and cheese, cole slaw, potato salad, and friendly staff.
D C🐧: People here r nice! I ordered the fried chicken dinner, it came with coleslaw, biscuit, and mac & cheese. I DIDN't LIKE ANYTHING!!!!! The coleslaw was ok.... AND THE FOOD GAVE ME AN UPSET STOMACH!
John Cline: Fried chicken sandwich with coleslaw is the way to go

Jim Lillig: try the cole slaw. Best in NY Read more.
KWOTE SCRIPTURES: Order the ribs, mac-n-cheese, the cole slaw is alright wasn't the best in my opinion. Definitely a filling meal so have a designated driver.
Chelsea Balkan: #FabuLIST big ass pork plate and ribs are to die for! The best sides are fried rice (my fav), corn bread, coleslaw and corn. Love their bbq sauce options too. Mac and cheese wasn't anything special.

Wings Joint · Upper West Side · 23 tips and reviews
Nat Harward: The chicken drumsticks are amazingly delicious and crispy. The kimchi coleslaw is the best side.
Eater: The kimchee coleslaw is particularly satisfying, leaving a sweet-and-sour burn on the lips, and the chicken parts may be split-ordered, that is you can get half hot and spicy and half soy garlic. Read more.
Eater: One of Robert Sietsema's top cheap eats: the wings ($7.81 for six pieces, or sometimes seven) are big and meaty and glazed, and constitute perfect stoner food. Read more.

Natasha Taylor: First off, anything that you eat from their menu is delicious! From the coleslaw, to the bbq ribs, to the sushi to dessert. Very diverse menu. I tend to get the coconut shrimp roll (yum)!
Konstantinos Leimonis: Burgers here are the best, so juicy and well grilled! Nothing like deeply fried ones. Combine it with a side coleslaw and max out the taste experience. Decoration is really cozy and relaxing.
Ron Hsu: Arctic char was cooked perfectly. Coleslaw was surprisingly delicious.
Matt Leva: This place is the quintessential deli that every neighborhood needs. Amazing food (try a sandwich and a side of coleslaw or potato salad) and great service!
Paige C: Wonderful staff, delicious food and coffees. Outdoor tables year round. Try their homemade baked goods, fresh salads or soups. Really a neighborhood gem!
Arjun Rao: The breakfast wrap #1 is the most delicious wrap in the city. There I said it. 🤷♂️
Deborah B: Absolutely love this gem in my nabe. We come here all the time and order their array of pastas and burgers. My fave is the Fried Chicken Sandwich w fries, the best ever w cole slaw in it.
Elisa: Thoroughly impressed by their shrimp pasta. Also really like their pineapple mint juice. The aesthetic of the interior is also amazing. Food service was quick. Highly recommend!
Layla: Lovely little cafe with great healthy brunch foods, but also great burgers! Love the design of the place, although it’s quite small so be prepared to wait a while.
