    Questlove's fried chicken, dumpling, cupcake, and slushy shop in Chelsea Market. The fried chicken is good, if way overpriced, and the slushies are even better. Dumplings and cupcakes are a pass.

    The biscuits once butter was added was amazing..Popeyes better watch out.! The chicken was juicy and well seasoned although there is no cute way to eat it ladies lol!

    I thought drumsticks was a weird idea but, hey what do I know. Hybird is a worthy challenger in the Best Fried Chicken conversation. The dumplings are fantastic. A must try.

    Find a friend. Share a box of (?)Questlove's fried drumsticks. Marvel at the crunchiness and juiciness of the meat. Die.

    The Cheesed & Chard and Creme de la Crab dumplings are not to be missed! Great collaboration between Starr Restaurants and QuestLove!

    “The clear standout on the menu, however, is the watermelon-jalapeño slushy: the definition of refreshing, with a bonus bracing kick.” Read more

    More pieces have been added. No more dumplings. The biscuit with honey butter and the honey ginger lemonade are delicious

    Ginger honey lemonade will surprise you on first sip. It's very tart, very sweet and very good but too strong to finish.

    Questlove's chicken joint. Meh. Drumsticks are HUGE...so then you have to wonder....is this natural? Creme de la crab is delicious.

    They gave up the dumplings to make room for other chicken parts. The chicken is excellent.

    Pineapple red curry cupcake and honey ginger lemonade. The latter could use some vodka...

    Nothing really to write home about apart from it's expensive for what it is. Chicken feels like it's GMO being so big and it's kinda meh. The crab dumplings were awesome but cheese/chive again just ok

    As a Philadelphian (hi Questlove) and fried chicken aficionado, I wanted to love this place. I hated it. Chicken was greasy and soggy...no crunch! The biscuit was the only saving grace...very good.
