I had never heard of Willie's Chicken, but I was hungry and thought I would check out. Huge open space with friendly staff. Cool art work throughout. You can smell hot fried chicken for at least a block. I ordered the tenders thinking the order would small. I was wrong. The chicken was hot, seasoned well, and surprisingly not too greasy. Every bite was filling but you knew if you started eating it, you would have to finish it. Everything was hot and fresh. I will try again next visit. They had other sides of interest as well. read more

Great fried chicken but it killed our stomachs after. Friendly staff with good music. Definitely have to try, but maybe not while drinking many daiquiris ! read more

I love that they have these everywhere on Bourbon Street!! The food is so good. The chicken is very seasoned so if you not a person that like to taste every piece of seasoning in every bite then this is not the place for you. The vibe gives after the club. You can either go in there while you are completely wasted or to kick the party off. And the drinks !! Be careful with the drinks. I can't remember which one I got but it did a number on me and I was goneeee. All in all great place. Great service. read more

If you are on bourbon street this is the spot to grab fried chicken and a daiquiri! Perfect for a late night bite. Came in and the ladies taking orders were very nice and allowed us to taste the different daiquiris before deciding. She even mixed some flavors that were absolutely delicious! I ended up getting the mango mixed with pina colada which was so good! I ordered red beans and rice as a side and it had amazing flavor, so good. I also ordered the crispy chicken which came with a biscuit. When I tell you the chicken was cooked perfectly and it was fresh out the fryer and worth the wait. It was seasoned, crispy and delicious. The biscuit was great as well! There's plenty of space to sit down and eat. Stop by here! read more

The chicken and drinks were tasty! But the service was absolutely horrible! I asked for a fork and the girl asked me "what for?" I told her to break open the chicken because it was boiling hot! She told me "no" rolled her eyes and went back to scrolling on her phone. Terrible customer service. No matter how good the food was I will not return. read more

Saw a ton of these in New Orleans. .. stopped in and was pleasantly surprised. The service with a smile. The hot and super tasty fries n chicken was on point. I had skipped dinner and was looking for something that would travel back the hotel well. This hit the spot! Kitchen staff hooked up the mouthwatering chicken with fries and a biscuit. Thank you for being on every corner seemingly near Bourbon Street. It was an easy in and out with plenty of seating. I would love to see this place in Oklahoma City! Questions reach out! Respectfully, Bryan Oklahoma City read more

Theres several of these in NOLA. We stopped in on the one on Bourbon; no fried chicken this time yet it looks and sounds so good! We had some of their daiquiri blends; the waitress let us sample a few to choose from. We had the mango (blue, yellow combination) which was delicious & blended really nicely so the drink wasn't too overpowering. There are plenty of places to choose from for daiquiris out here yet the customer service, price range, & size here at Willies makes it worth it. read more

So we needed to see what the hype was about the Louisiana fried chicken. I honestly expected it to taste like Popeyes (LOL). However, it was a different but good flavor on its own! We had it late night on our last night in NOLA which was cool. We paired it with one of their frozen mango daiquiris. That joint was SO SWEET!!!! We legit cut it with water and it made no difference in texture, sweetness of alcohol dilution -- which could be your vibe. I don't know. Either way, this was an experience. The service was as you would assume a quick bite would be. Quick and easy. read more

Okay this place is bomb. Chicken comes out super hot and crispy, fries were great, and that biscuit!!! Mmm. Loved the selection of frozen drinks - super refreshing. Had a few issues with people coming up to us asking for our credit cards / money while eating inside of the restaurant? Not necessarily a representation of the place, but just with caution. Can't wait to go back! read more

Willie's Chicken Shack - 3 piece tender and frozen hurricane - Chicken Wings Near Me - New Orleans, Louisiana

The chicken is extremely good for a quick meal. My food took a little while but I was happy to know it was made fresh and not pieces that were sitting under a lamp. The fries were also good but I would pass on the biscuit; it comes covered in honey and it not a fan of the combo so I wouldn't get it again. The daiquiri was perfectly mixed and you could taste the alcohol and my server offered me samples of the different flavors. My biggest and only con was the condiment area covered in fruit flies. The hot sauce is packaged so it was safe for me to eat but I didn't want ketchup or anything else that was exposed to the flies that swarmed as I approached the condiments. read more

This is the best damn fried chicken I ever had and the biscuit even better come on this place was banging. I wish we had one in Austin to be honest they came over here all drunk as one does on Bourbon Street. They had the food in like two seconds to me like they know what's up they know you're drunk. They know you need to eat and they got you Bomb ass and it came with some ranch and some other dipping sauce that was better when I saw that fucking ranch and it was Newman's, I was like this is gonna taste disgusting but it actually tasted delicious and I did not use the Newman's because Newman's is crap. read more

While In NO, we passed by a few of these establishments within a short distance. I figured it must be delicious if they are all so close together and seem to all be thriving. We were on our way back to our hotel late one night and decided to give it a try. I wish we hadn't. I ordered the catfish and fries. Both tasted like they were frozen. With enough sauce, the fries were at least palatable but the fish had a hard "shell" on it which was supposed to be batter of some sort? It didn't even stick to the fish. The biscuit was good. Had I known this, I would have just ordered biscuits. My husband ordered pizza from the pizza side, on Canal street. $45 for a whole pizza. There was very little sauce on it and the crust tasted more like cornmeal than flour. We wasted $70 on pizza and catfish. This can't be original NO flavor! We would have been better off going down the street to Dominoes and grabbing pizza and wings. We ended up throwing it away and getting something from the corner store on Common St, down the block from our hotel. read more

We have been here multiples times when visiting NOLA! It's definitely nothing crazy unique, but it's decent. They offer fried chicken in strips or by the piece. I really like the biscuits that come with the meal! At the end of the day, it is another fast food joint, but you get a good portion of food for what you pay for. They are open late, which is great for an after bar snack. I would consider coming back again and would recommend this to others as well. read more

This a location chicken chain in New Orleans. It is good food when your tipsy or looking for a late snack. They have catfish, chicken, fries, biscuits along with a variety of daiquiri's. The place is dim yet colorful inside. The prices are affordable and the food comes with 10 mins. The biscuits are the star so good and with honey hands down the best biscuit I have had a chicken fast food place. The food had here at flavors slightly greasy. The catfish was my favorite great flavor not greasy at all. Nice stop for a quick bit there is no seating but an table to stand and eat it's different but I enjoyed this place. read more

You see Willie's all over New Orleans and it's honestly pretty good. Kinda expensive for what you get but that's likely because of tourism prices. The chicken is very juicy, but also pretty greasy. The fries are average but the biscuit is really good. Overall not a bad place to stop in if you're hungry for fried chicken. Chill vibe and the workers are friendly. read more

Oh boy . I would avoid. Staff not friendly. Not been a smile. Second food is really gross. Fries were soggy and dripping with oil. Biscuit was also soggy with oil. Chicken had more skin then meat. They sell water for $3.50. Just really nasty. I ate only one dump stick because I was starving and it starting to pour rain. I didn't want to walk in the rain or wait to eat so that's how this happened. But can't say I'm surprised they sell daiquiris I think that's there main thing. read more

Pros: Cooked to order Friendly Staff Lots of alcohol Cons: Salty Grease was old No restroom Perhaps I wasn't at the appropriate level of intoxication to like the food. It was bland no seasoning just salt. The staff was great, I needed a restroom and they pointed me to a location across the street which was worse than me conducting my business right on the street. As I'm waiting im like alright fresh to order should be great WRONG the fries were limp, chicken extra hard, the biscuit umm drenched in honey. Sigh I was starving and even with that emotion I still couldn't say that this was good food. If you stop here just grab a drink and keep it moving. Oh yea my two meals totaled over $31 bucks. read more

If you are looking for a quick bite to eat (well not too quick because it's a lot of food) while on Bourbon Street, Willie's will not disappoint. The fried chicken was delicious and the jambalaya too. The biscuit wasn't great, but how could I eat a biscuit with the rest of that food? They also have frozen drinks. Not a healthy item on the menu, but it sure was good! read more

My last meal in the city. The original plan was to come here after dinner, but we ate so much that I really had no room for anything else. I really thought walking around for a few hours after dinner would free up some space, but alas it did not. My friends checked out early in the morning so they didn't get to experience this place. I woke up with a few hours to spare before the shuttle picked me up from the hotel. What a great first meal of the day. As recommended by a local we met, Maurice (who as it turned out worked at one), I got the 6 piece wings that came with a biscuit. I did not however order the spicy version as he recommended. There were a bunch of hot sauces available to the diners so I used those instead. It was barely 11am, but I chased my meal with a pint of beer because why not. Holy guacamole. Those wings were far superior than everything. I also loved how the biscuit was already dipped in honey. I finished that before I dove into the wings. I ate everything and wanted more. read more

Went on vacation with the family to New Orleans and we are having such a great time , found this gem with some of the best fried chicken I ever had , I ordered the chicken tenders that were great amazing crunch on the breading but by far the best part are the biscuits they are homemade fried biscuits with honey butter that are to die for and for the daiquiris they are great they have a daiquiri bar included with the chicken they have a wide range of options I had the electric margarita flavor that was great. First time In New Orleans and I am in love with all the amazing food options that they have on the strip and also on bourbon street. read more

We originally were at another location but the workers at the cashier were just plain rude. It was the branch closer to the parade route on Canal and I can tell they were frustrated with the customers. No problem there are PLENTY of other Willie's Chicken Shack all over town so just take your pick! My husband and I shared the 4 piece mix (breast, wing, thigh, leg) that comes with fries and biscuit. We added an extra biscuit so glad we did or else there would had be a divorce. The fried chicken are amazing but these HONEY soaked biscuits are no joke, it's definitely a game changer! Everything was finger lickin' good YUM YUM! Didn't care for the fries that it came with because it was soggy and full of oil that the chicken sat on. But who came here for fries? read more

This place is the best thing I never knew I needed! First time in NOLA in the French quarter browsing for food and stumbled upon this place. There were only 2 customers inside so we were skeptical. Ordered the dark meat combo with fries and my GAWD this food satisfied every cell in my body. The chicken had an amazing crunch & flavor. Fries were delicious too. But the star of the show?! THOSE HONEY BUTTER BISCUITS. GEEZUS!! Not only did it sop up all the liquor I had but it also raised my credit score. Later that day, when we passed the restaurant, it was booming with ppl. Glad we got there earlier in the day to enjoy our food in peace. All in all, just go & mail me a biscuit. Thanks in advance. read more
