### Short review ###
I live in California, near LA & Hollywood. I visit Georgia occasionally because I love Georgia. I wish to retire there. Anyway, Mrs Winners at Macon has the best chicken. I ate there several times in 2015 and they never disappointed me. They deliver amazing chicken every single time. It's the best fried chicken I ever had. However, the other Mrs Winners locations had been disappointing every single time. So, go to Macon, and forget the others.
Update: I went to Mrs Winners (Macon) twice in 2016. They were excellent both times. Best fried chicken ever.
### Long version ###
I never knew simple fried chicken can be this good. It's simply amazing.
I visited 2 other Mrs Winners locations around Atlanta area. But, they were disappointing every single time. They gave me old chickens (meat was brown). Also they gave me dried up old livers. I could tell that they re-fried livers from day before. The other locations don't come close to Macon GA. One of the locations I went to was at Decatur. Frankly, I felt insulted after eating at the other places.
Macon location doesn't look new and clean. Dining room area doesn't shine and sparkle. But, I still like Macon 100 times more than Dacatur or any other locations. Macon is the only place I will go.
In 2015, I went to Mrs Winners in Macon 7 times, and they were excellent every single time. So far, they are 100% on the money. To me, Mrs Winners at Macon GA is guaranteed good meal. Time there had been absolute joy. Chicken is so tasty and so fresh. I also enjoy their livers and gizzards.
You must understand one thing. This comes with the territory. If you go there later hours, they may be out of some items. Also, if you order certain items at off time, you may have to wait 10-20 minutes. It's because they make your chicken fresh~! And they avoid leftovers so they don't have to sell day old chicken. A lot of places sell you 1-2-3 days old chickens. You can tell by the color of the meat. Look under the skin. The chicken meat should be white. But, you often see brown meat (even green). They are OLD~!!! Macon's chickens are white, fresh, and steaming hot.
Macon restaurant is a hidden gem. Enjoy it while you can. I'm afraid they might change management or close this location. I can't wait to eat there again.
Obviously the management at Macon location is sticking to their philosophy. I thank them for it. God bless the entire team at Macon. People like them make Georgia great. It gives me more reasons for me to visit there.
I don't understand bad reviews here.
I even like the people who eat there. One time, we were sitting at the table waiting for our order. When our order was ready? some customer (a stranger, a big dude) brought us the tray with a smile. That's Southern hospitality. THAT's is why I wish to retire in Georgia. People are nice, everything is green, things are cheaper, and you have the best chicken at Pio Nono.
I visited Macon again in 2016 and ate at Mrs Winners twice. Again, it was the best fried chicken ever.
Thank you. read more
