I do wish there was an easier way to find the menu online, I had to ask what all they had over the phone. For two plates my order came out to $38, and each plate comes with three sides and corn bread. I'd eat here again.

So on Day 2 of my first New Orleans trip, I wanted an iconic meal at an iconic New Orleans spot…read more So we headed to Willie Mae's NOLA to try her famous fried chicken. I jumped on my OpenTable app and was able to snag a reservation on a busy Friday night. We took an Uber to the restaurant but I did notice most of the parking for this restaurant was street parking. Walking in about 15 minutes before our reservation and they sat us immediately at the bar,much to my surprise as the restaurant was packed and I had heard rumors of people waiting for long periods of time for a seat. The restaurant was very busy and quite noisy with the constant chatter of a full restaurant along with the most amazing music being played to create the best ambiance for a great meal. Once we sat down we ordered a few cocktails to go with our dinner. We ordered a Sidecar($18.00) and a French 75($14.00) Both were exquisite-tasted great and were well made. For food we ordered the 1/2 Fried Chicken order($18.00) which comes with 4 pieces of fried chicken and a side, I went with the Mac n Cheese but it was out and they gave me Red Beans and Rice and a side of Green Beans in its place. We also ordered the Caesar Salad with the Fried Chicken added.($13.00 + $5.00) Our food got to us in about 15 minutes, which was amazingly fast considering how busy the restaurant and kitchen were that night. Let's talk about the food. The Caesar Salad was pretty good,nice and fresh with a good balance of dressing and cheese. The Red Beans and Rice was my favorite side-was so flavorful and rich. The Green Beans hurt my soul a bit because I realized upon tasting those that I have been cooking mine at home all wrong all these years-they were perfect. The star of the night and what Willie Mae's is famous for though is the fried chicken and it did not disappoint. My wife said I looked like a kid on Christmas Day as I was smiling and enjoying every bite of my four pieces of fried chicken. All I could think about was how I wished my father would've made it to New Orleans at least once as fried chicken was his favorite food and the dish served at Willie Mae's would've blown his socks off. Pure Fried Chicken Perfection! Overall, if you're coming to New Orleans and fried chicken is your thing, Willie Mae's deserves a spot on your list.

I had made a quick reservation online, but at that time it really wasn't necessary because it wasn't too crowded. We had passed by earlier in the day and there was a line outside, so coming later definitely worked out for us. Our waitress was amazing! She was so funny, friendly, and just really fun throughout the entire meal. We started with the Caesar salad and the NOLA Nuggets, which are fried catfish bites. They accidentally brought us a house salad at first, but quickly fixed it and brought out the Caesar. The catfish bites were really good and perfectly fried. They had run out of tartar sauce that day, and our waitress explained that the person who normally makes it wasn't there and that they make their sauces in-house. We ended up improvising our own dipping sauce with mayo and hot sauce, which actually worked out pretty well! For our entrees, my boyfriend, my mother-in-law, and I all ordered the Willie Mae Chicken Sandwich, and WOW. The fried chicken was amazing. It was perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and served on a brioche bun with red cabbage, slaw sauce, and HiHo pickles. The pickles were so good and went perfectly with the chicken. Honestly, this was some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. I got the mac & cheese on the side and it was super creamy and delicious. My boyfriend got the fried okra, which was also really good. My father-in-law is a huge catfish fan, so he ordered the Louisiana Catfish Platter with a side of fried okra and loved it. We definitely did not have room for dessert after all of that, but everything we tried was great. Everyone was super nice, the place has such a cool vibe, and our waitress made the experience even better. Definitely recommend stopping here if you're in New Orleans. I would absolutely come back, especially for that fried chicken!
