A new chicken shop has opened its doors in the neighborhood. Located at 1301 E. 53rd St. in Hyde Park, the fresh addition is called The Budlong Hot Chicken.
The Budlong Hot Chicken specializes in fried chicken. On the menu, expect to see items like crispy chicken tenders, hot wings with Texas toast and chicken salad.
The fresh addition has gotten off to a solid start thus far, with a 3.5-star rating out of 17 reviews on Yelp.
Asia J., who was among the first Yelpers to review the new spot on June 15, wrote, "The chicken sandwich ended up being pretty tasty. The fries were well seasoned and hot, which was great. If you love banana pudding, I would recommend giving Budlong's banana pudding a try."
Yelper William B. added, “I had a Hot Chicken Sandwich, with coleslaw and pickles, and it was simply excellent — crunchy, hot, tangy and satisfying. The only thing I would change is to order it Extra Hot next time.”
Swing on by to take a peek for yourself: The Budlong Hot Chicken is open from 11 a.m.–9 p.m. on Tuesday-Sunday. (It's closed on Monday.)
