- Antonio VanegasJune 14, 2016The buffalo chicken sandwich should run for president! Amazing! Homemade ranch for the ranch lovers, not your normal frozen fries they're nice and crispy. Mac & cheese is authentic & really good!
- Josephine SonJuly 6, 2015I am a diehard fried chicken addict and always searching for the perfect dish. Think I found it at Bobwhite! Chicken is seasoned perfectly and crisp and damn the biscuits are good!
- As usual, one of the best, if not the best, fried chicken sandwiches anywhere. Add pimento cheese and all is right with the world. The banana pudding and pecan bread pudding was great too.
- Village VoiceAugust 4, 2014Southern classics worth a try are the pork chop sandwich (with meat from Bev Eggleston's EcoFriendly Foods) and grilled pimento cheese on Orwasher's bread, which will leave you licking your fingers. Read more
- The Corcoran GroupAugust 4, 2014You really can't go wrong with the fried chicken supper on its own, but don't forget to add the mac and cheese as a side. You'll thank us later.
- Sarah J ParkerOctober 13, 2017Worth going out of the way for this place. Fried chicken is light succulent and tasty. Mac and cheese and biscuit as sides are must haves. Homemade sauces pack a punch :)
- Great juicy fried chicken! They also have fried catfish. Can't go wrong with the chicken and biscuit sandwich either. They offer a unique happy hour special that consists of a beer and a thigh. Yum!
- HeatherNovember 1, 2017Fried chicken and biscuits are great and the mac & cheese is incredible! Great prices too. Added bonus, they actually serve sweet tea which is few and far between in NY! Would go again & again.
- John EFebruary 23, 2017Best fried chicken in NYC by far, possibly the best in the country north of the Mason-Dixon Line. Young guys running the place are efficient & friendly. An absolute must-visit Alphabet City staple.
- Chris SandemanMarch 20, 2018Happy hour here is solid: 3-7pm, beer&chicken $6, biscuit w/chicken $3.50. Happy hour is the whole place, not just @the bar.
- Terence ChanJuly 18, 2015Really really good Mac n cheese and biscuits (order an extra one and thank me later). The catfish was nicely done too. The fried chicken was juicy but lacked flavor. 4/5
- Jerry JosephMarch 30, 2019Get the “Chicken Little” supper for 3 fried chicken pieces on the bone, plus biscuit, and a side. Could definitely be the best fried chicken in the city.
- Village VoiceSeptember 16, 2013You’re in for a special treat at this fried chicken joint. The birds are brined in sweet tea and exude a hint of sugar beneath every crunchy bite. Pair it up with a biscuit and some butter pickles!
- Village VoiceFebruary 7, 2014Village Voice is proud to welcome Bobwhite Counter to the 2014 Choice Eats food fest! http://bit.ly/1cRzdNV. Get the fried chicken sandwich topped with some tangy butter pickles.
- Alex RobertsonJuly 27, 2022Stupid good. The chicken sandwiches are all $7.09-$7.86 or something. Can’t sit inside anymore but who could complain about seein the cars go nyoom on Ave C and like twelve guys asking you for money
- Ha DiemAugust 17, 2014The best fried chicken I've had in New York. The chicken is always perfectly seasoned with crispy skin. I love it paired with the hot sauce and honey! I just wish they served mashed potatoes.
- Michael GalpertJune 20, 2013might be my favorite thing in all of ABC: Chicken biscuit!!! It may not be on menu but order it! Be sure to; put honey on one side and hot sauce on the other. You're welcome.
- Sunny and super cute! Really good fried chicken and biscuits. Mac and cheese and onion rings are also winners.

- Cole KennedyJune 16, 2019The buffalo chicken sandwich is indisputably the best fried chicken sandwich I have ever eaten. The mac & cheese is the correct side option.
- AdrienApril 3, 2016hey don't take reservations, if it is busy just put your name and get a beer a fresh craft beer on tap at Alphabet City Beer Co next door ;)

- Ricky SherrillOctober 24, 2015The fried chicken & their pork chop are the stars but you cannot go wrong with anything on their menu. Take a friend or two so you can order a bunch to share.
- Lauren MacFebruary 12, 2017Get the platter with fried chicken, Mac and cheese, and biscuit and you won't regret it! Very reasonably priced for moist, delicious Southern food. Will definitely be returning.
- My favorite lunch spot! The buffalo chicken sandwich is great, but the regular is my old standby. Mac and cheese is a must and the staff is the perfect mix of attentive and laid back. Great music too.
- Ale TowerMarch 12, 2017Got the chicken sandwich with fries and a beer for $20 all in, which is pretty good by NYC standards. Most importantly, I was full but would have gladly had another sandwich - it was pretty damn good!
- JeffreyAugust 31, 2014Sweet-tea-brined and pressure-fried, the moist, craggy-crusted chicken is the main event at this modest redoubt, and it comes with a tasty buttermilk biscuit and some well-intentioned mixed greens.
- JeremyJune 16, 2017Get an extra order of the ever-so-cheesy Mac and cheese. Delicious. The catfish is good, but why would you pass up the fried chicken?
- MarcJuly 10, 2014TT 10 Cheap Eats: "fried chicken is brined in sweet tea, dredged in flour & secret spices, then pressure fried. Chkn supper platter is for sharing; fried chkn sandwich is served on a brioche-like bun"
- Neil CaronMarch 11, 2016Take it from a Southerner, this is legit fried chicken. If it's busy, get on the list & grab a beer next door at Alphabet Beer Co, your stomach will be thankful... Not so much your cardiologist though
- Rebecca MazzaFebruary 1, 2017Awesome fried chicken sandwich and nice low key vibe and service. But I think I prefer Sweet Chicks fried chicken

- Cooper SmithMarch 12, 2014The chicken biscuit is a Wednesday night special, but if you ask your waitress nicely, you might be able to get it other nights. It's incredible.
- Johnnie SkywalkingMarch 20, 2016Crispy and juicy. Simple and not over spiced. Can understand why so popular. Choose ice tea sweetened or non sweetened.
- DorouliniMay 24, 2018Fantastic fried chicken!! We tried a plate of chicken tenders and a sandwich with mac n cheese on the side! Small place but good service.

- Chris CostelloJune 25, 2013Best fried okra I've had since I moved out of Texas. The tenderest fried chicken I've had in NYC, too. It might just fall off the bone.
- Jeanie NguyenJuly 28, 2015Amazing fried chicken! Even their simple egg cheese on biscuit sandwiches are out of this world. Friendly service. AC is always blasting so a little chilly

- Tash KouriApril 28, 2013My fav fried chicken joint in the city! Succulent, juicy, and eye-rolling-ly delicious! Unfortunately, you can't order all breast meat. Even when they say you can. Even when money is no option. :(
- Andrew CerdaNovember 4, 2013I know my way around a buffalo chicken sandwich, and this is one delicious piece. Add a side of Mac and you're in savory, spicy, cheesy heaven.
