Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris - New Orleans With so much legendary fried chicken in New Orleans, this place has no business being as good as it is--but it absolutely holds its own. The chicken was fresh, crispy, and packed with crunch. The breading had great texture and stayed crisp all the way through. It's not trying to reinvent fried chicken; it just executes it well. One thing to know before you go: unlike many chicken spots, you can't order individual pieces. The menu starts with a 2-piece meal for $14.99, which includes fries and a biscuit. Not exactly a bargain, but portions are fair for the French Quarter where everything comes with a tourist tax. The atmosphere is loud, colorful, and over-the-top New Orleans. Neon lights, daiquiri machines, and a cotton-candy-cloud ceiling make it impossible to miss. This review is strictly about the chicken. I'm not a fan of the super-sugary daiquiris, so I can't speak much to the drinks. But if you're wandering the French Quarter craving fried chicken, Voodoo deserves consideration even among the city's stiff competition. Worth ordering: Crispy fried chicken meal Skip if: You're looking for cheap eats or just want a single piece of chicken. Overall: Solid fried chicken with excellent crunch in a fun French Quarter setting. read more

I am not even going to take picture of food. They won't give us our food because we opted out of getting a printed receipt. No where does it say must have receipt to get food. Only cashless. Even showed my transaction of over $60 for here and still questioned if we ordered. Seriously! Yelpers. If you come here don't try to save paper because they won't believe you! Get your receipt! Never been treated so poorly ever. Very casual atmosphere. read more

This is a solid spot for late-night eats. I stopped in when I needed something quick, and overall it did the job. The chicken was seasoned and fried well, but it was a little too spicy for my personal taste. The fries and biscuit were just okay--nothing bad, just nothing memorable. The staff was friendly and welcoming, which made the experience better, and like most places in New Orleans, you can grab an alcoholic beverage here too. While there's nothing particularly special about this spot, it has an inviting vibe and the late hours definitely make it convenient. Good option if you're hungry late and nearby. read more

This spot is everything chicken n fries are crazy fresh out. Open late/early for your hunger fix.

The name is basically the gist of this place. Their wings were pretty good and their drinks are what you'd expect. Some are stronger than others and you're allowed to sample before making a choice. I'd suggest you do that before committing because some of the drinks are way more sugary than others. For me? I need an alcoholic punch if I'm going to toss my diet down the drain for a drink. read more

This is a great place to grab food on the go. Their chicken strips are cooked to perfection along with everything else. See pictures for proof. read more

I stopped by Willie's Chicken Shack on Bourbon Street during Mardi Gras and was told that they were only serving chicken tenders. I was really craving fried wings, so I decided to give this spot a try. I ordered a 6-piece chicken wings (just the wings, no sides) for $15.99, which felt pretty steep. I got them crispy, and they were decent, but for that price I definitely expected more. There were three people behind the counter, and unfortunately, none of them were very friendly. It gave off the vibe that they just didn't want to be there. I do want to give a shout out to the COOK, though--he was very friendly and helpful, which I appreciated. My boyfriend ordered a frozen daiquiri in their signature cup, and it was $28--geez! I asked for two flavors swirled together, but instead of swirling them, the guy just layered them. Small detail, but still disappointing. They're definitely getting all the church's money during Mardi Gras lol. Overall, I probably won't be back. There are way too many places in New Orleans to grab good chicken wings and daiquiris to settle for an average experience at those prices. read more

Service is nice and supportive to tourists. Chicken was spicier than expected for just ordering chicken tenders, biscuit was hard, atmosphere is grab and go because you're close to bourbon street and everyone walks around drinking, not as ideal for work travel but convenient for a quick bite and if you want to take a loop around Canal street read more

Came here for a quick bite to eat and drink before hitting up bourbon street. Went with a tenders meal with voodoo sauce and a cold beer. The first two beers I tried to get were both out of tap, but as they say third times the charm! Chicken and the fries were both hot and fresh and made for a very tasty meal. Voodoo sauce was good, and maybe this is my NY roots talking, but I think I'll always be a buffalo kind of man. The guy behind the grill was so nice and even gave our big group a complimentary basket of chicken and fries without us even saying anything! That alone was worth enough for a rave review. It might not be the most glamorous meal you'll find in the New Orleans, but it's easy and delicious. read more

Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

I went to New Orleans for a conference last month and ended my final night with Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris. I was with a stalwart late-drinking crew, walking back to our hotel after closing out Bourbon Street, when we came upon this place. It was still open at 4AM, the neon lights inviting us in. Sarah T. stopped and said, "I could have one more drink," and all five of us went in, no one willing to go to bed before the party officially ended. I'm a middle-aged mom in my regular life, and I was a little drunk but also high on this singular gift of a night: the hours of merriment with this crew of old and new friends, the first, but for all we know only time we'd hang out in this configuration. I was feeling expansive, is what I'm saying, and bought fried chicken, daiquiris, and commemorative T-shirts for us all. I think we were the only customers early on that Sunday morning, but the place still felt fun and festive, lit up in Mardi Gras colors. Service was quick and competent. We got our daiquiris right away, pulled from giant slushy machines into colorful half-yard plastic cups with skulls on the bottom. When I tried to order fried chicken meals from the menu, the cashier point to the mostly depleted display case and said that was all they had left. I told her to give us all the remaining fried chicken, and that's what arrived at our table. The daiquiris were delicious, like boozy Jamba Juices. The Blue Bayou was tropical and electric blue, with "tropical flavors of pineapple and island coconut" (the wording leads me to believe that actual fruit never made it in) blended with vodka, gin, rum, and blue curaçao. The Jazz Funeral had "flavorful notes" of orange, peach, and mango. I'm not sure what the alcohol was in that one, but it was there. I don't remember the fried chicken that well. I think it was fine, if not the freshest at that hour. We got maybe ten pieces, split five ways, and I can't say whether we finished them or not. I can say everything was astonishingly expensive. Three daiquiris and the dregs of the chicken warmer cost over $180, and that's before I went back for the T-shirts. I almost called the "next" day, when I stopped to think about it, because I thought there'd been a mistake. But I guess with each daiquiri going for $25, I only had to buy about $60 of chicken before tax and tip, which seems stupid but plausible. We left after 5:00, when the place closed, exhausted but still giddy, wearing our new shirts. I fell asleep in mine then woke up four hours later, brushing my teeth and running out the door. I had two panels that morning, in front of hundreds of people, and I did them looking crazy, with the Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris mascot staring out at the audience. I love the T-shirt, which is comfortable and well designed, and I've worn it several times since coming home, writing on my couch or doing school drop-off. It's a nice memento from this wonderful night in New Orleans. read more

This is a popular spot for fast food and drinks. The drinks are super sugary and boozy. The food is greasy but good. I recommend the chicken tenders! They're juicy and flavorful. I pulled off a little of the breading and dove in! read more

I was unsure off coming here for dinner for my first meal in New Orleans. So I went and had a few drinks along Bourbon St. When I went to my first option, they were closed.....so to Voodoo Chicken I went. Service was very quick, easy and professional. The restaurant was small which was understandable given the many locations I found. I ended up getting the 4 piece chicken meal. The waffle fries hit the spot but wasn't spectacular. The chicken though was fire. It had all the southern heat you could want. I was very happy with the chicken. The meal also came with a biscuit which was very dry for my taste. This was a tasty spot with many locations in the French Quarter. Overall, the chicken was excellent which is what counted the most. If I come back here, I'll just stick with the chicken. read more

Great flavors and crispy waffle fries, plus a full bar! The only reason I'm giving it four stars instead of five is because they didn't offer any condiments, and by the time we got back to our Airbnb, we realized they weren't inside the restaurant--kind of a letdown. The music was really lively and fun, but since our Airbnb was just upstairs, it was pretty loud and made it hard to relax. Overall, a solid spot with tasty food and a vibrant vibe! read more

A little expensive but everything we ordered was amazing. The voodoo sauce is sweet and spicy, but the chicken is so flavored you don't even need a strong sauce. Frozen daiquiris are really good, but the ambience is definitely lacking. Super cool decor but absolutely silent without music. read more

Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris - 3-piece tender meal - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

My first stop while I'm here visiting New Orleans, I was very excited to eat here. The decor is definitely what drew me here and I was starving just checking in my hotel. The space was amazing, again it is what made me come inside in the first place, it was well lit and had a New Orleans theme throughout the restaurant. Plenty of space and seating available for patrons. They had really cool pictures on the wall, and would be a great place for people to come and get content or take pictures. Service was good, the cashier walked me through the menu and gave me some suggestions. The restaurant was empty so she took her time breaking different meals down and I appreciated the time she took with me. Food was decent at best, actually disappointing if I'm being completely honest. I had the Voodoo wrap, Natchitoches Pie (meat), and the honey butter biscuit. The rice in the wrap was really hard, I felt like I could have chipped a tooth biting into it. The pie was soggy and just did not taste like anything, underwhelming first choice for food unfortunately but I know the city has plenty of great dining options to offer. read more

I beg you, if you want a Po" Boy, do not go to this establishment. I had several Po" Boys on this visit. Today I got the chicken tender version. .Literally on each half of the sandwich there were two tiny tenders (cut in half, I assume to make it look more substantial). Basically it was just bread with a tiny bit of tender and some lettuce and tomato . By far the worst I've had in my entire life. I showed an employee, and all he said was "I'm sorry you had that experience." Please do not visit this establishment. I hate leaving negative reviews. But this one deserved it. I could not figure out how to leave Zero Stars. Gumbo Kitchen, about a block away on Canal Street is FAR superior. In fact, we literally walked straight there to get a second meal as the first was so terrible. read more

Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris - Po' Boy - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

The young man at the counter was nice. And the young man cooking was very nice to me and my friend. The chicken tenders were good and crunchy and fresh. I could do without the voodoo sauce. I just wish they sold actual chicken wings but overall the food was good. The fries were good too. We ordered take out twice from this location. The drinks are pretty expensive for one. But they offer the drinks in tall cups or 20 oz. It can be pricey eating here getting an entree and sides and drinks. read more

They get the award for best ceiling!!! Oh, and they have great Tenders and Waffle Fries, and my advice is to just stick with the tender basket. 3 was plenty as they were huge. The wrap was about the same size and was small and pathetic looking with maybe one tender inside. I think both the loaded 3 tender basket and the wrap were $15. What sucked was it was so cold out, it was like 1am, and they kept the doors flung wide open. The food got cold quick and I was shivering. And what's up with napkins these days? Are they made of gold or something? When packing a box of food, please give more than 3 small napkins! It's finger food! I was glad they were open as we found out a lot of places close pretty early in NOLA, even on a Friday night. read more

I wish I could knock a star off for them not having any sides, but it was 1:30am and they were nice so I can't go that route morally. My wife and I hit this place up after a long night on Bourbon Street. They ladies there were super friendly and nice, offering tastes of the daiquiris while we waited for our food. Location is nice right off the main road, especially if a few drinks have you hungry, then this is definitely a spot for you. Just make sure you get there at a decent time or no red beans and rice for you! read more

Daiquiris were really good and the bartender was super nice. I ordered the wings and they tasted like swamp ass!! good drinks, but the food sucks unless you like eating swamp ass this might be your place. read more

Not impressed. Took forever to get order even though everything is already cooked. Chicken was dry. $20 for 4 pieces is ridiculous especially with 1 of the pieces being a wing. The chicken taste fishy. They must fry them together. The dark meat was dried out. There is a Popeyes 2 doors down. I should have gone there. read more

I ordered a vanilla scoop of ice cream but was given strawberry instead. When I told the employee it wasn't vanilla, I was told, "Yes it is." A second employee then came over and admitted they were out of vanilla. We ended up getting a refund, but it was frustrating to be told I was wrong rather than simply being informed that vanilla was unavailable. The food was good, but the customer service could have been handled better. read more

Wanted a quick bite after checking into our hotel on canal street at night. This place was quick to serve and had plenty of seating. I got a three tender meal with voodoo sauce. This also came with fries and a biscuit. The meal was much bigger than I expected which was a nice surprise. The chicken was just a bit dry but the voodoo sauce helped overcome the shortfall there and had a nice flavor. I'd consider coming back for a quick bite given the value for my dollar here read more

Ate here on the last night of a recent trip to New Orleans. Although the music was loud, I liked the feel of the place, much more interesting than Popeye's. You order at the counter and they call your number when ready. The guy taking our order rang it up in a way to save us money, then said he would tell the kitchen something, which he neglected to do. The chicken was very good. I also had red beans and rice. The beans were excellent, but the rice was severely undercooked. read more

Quick service and fun atmosphere! The chicken tenders were juicy and the waffle fries fresh and crispy. The voodoo sauce has a bit of a kick to it - almost like a sweet Thai chili sauce. Great place for a quick afternoon pick me up or to end your night! read more

Visited on a Monday afternoon and everyone who works here is friendly and fun. I loved the music and learned a few new songs. I ordered the two piece white with an extra sauce. The chicken was seasoned really good and I loved that it wasn't greasy. I enjoyed the warm biscuit and although the the sauce is HOT! It was tolerable. My only complaint is that I waited about an hour for my food so I had to eat on the go vs in store. read more

Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris - Entrance - Cocktail Bars Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

After eating out at multiple restaurants, The Doctor and I wanted a quiet meal in our room with bubbles. We had a taste for chicken and were on our way to Popeye's when the colors and music of Voodoo Chicken & Daiquiris pulled us in. The space itself, like a lot of business, is open to the street. There are tables were you can sit and eat. We placed our order with a nice woman, who was very friendly. I love dark meat, so that with fries and biscuits. The Doctor got the 4-piece mix. We also got a side of the red beans & rice, because why not since you are already going to carb town. It took a little bit for our order to come up, but that was because they had to cook the chicken right then and there. While they were doing that, I ran down to Popeye's real quick to get some mashed potatoes and cole slaw, because I need cole slaw and mashed potatoes with my chicken. That killed some time and in he meanwhile, we were grooving to the tunes. We didn't do the Daiquiris but we saw quite a few people coming in to get them, so I guess they were made right. The chicken had a nice flavor and was juicy. The meal came with fries, but I didn't eat them, so I can't speak to them other than to say that The Doctor finished his wit no complaints. The biscuit was always nice and I have to say that it paired perfectly with the Popeye's cole slaw and mashed potatoes. The red beans & rice were also good...not too spicy or soupy. While the food was good, it is not good for value. Chicken and wings are on the high side and I mean higher than what I pay in Chicago. I would have liked to have tried the wings, but the price was too high for me, even more than what is being charged in Chicago. But if the chicken is anything to go by, they most likely will be good too. While we had a nice quiet evening in our room, I am not sure if we will spend that kind of money on chicken and biscuits. read more

Latoyia Jackson took great care of us. The food is fantastic and the it's open late. Would come back again.

Sunday,  I was highly disappointed with my hand grenade from  the popular tropical isle (but that's a different story for a different review). I passed by this spot a few times over the weekend, so yesterday, I decided to slide on in and give them a shot.  Cute spot; it was empty when we walked in. Clean and open area. The young lady working may have been on her break when I walked in. The way she was chowing down that chicken made me feel guilty for the interruption. She was able to assist me with narrowing down my flavors - blue bayou & voodoo punch hit the spot for me. I was thrown off because the prices displayed on the board were different from what she rang me up for. I wasn't ready for the upcharge. Nonetheless, I was very satisfied with my drink. The flavors blended perfectly, and it really cooled me down. I would definitely recommend Voodoo daiquiri if you want something flavorful and strong. It'll get you right. read more

Meaty and tender chicken tenders with just the right amount of spice! The ranch was also top notch.

I went here for my first "roadie" drink and was charged 25 dollars for a small before tip. It tasted like a 7-11 slushie - zero booze. It was so bad I tossed it after two sips. Just awful. I was so overcharged and am super grossed out. read more

Voodoo chicken lives up to his name because it cast a spell on you when you take a bite of its food. The mac & cheese is delicious and creamy and the voodoo chicken wrap was a dream. It had red beans and rice in it as well, which gave it a touch of southern comfort. Also their house made hot sauce. Gives it the perfect delicious kick. read more
