Fried Chicken Customer Review

When I went to J. Alexander’s, I had the crispy chicken platter, and it was so yummy. And that’s coming from a fried chicken connoisseur who loves Crown Fried Chicken and my own air fried chicken dishes. At J.’s, the honey mustard they serve for dipping is so good! It came with coleslaw and fries, so plenty of food. The service is amazing. Our drinks were always full, even before we finished the last. This is my fav place to go!

Best Drinks and Sides with Fried Chicken

Mr. Jack’s Crispy Chicken Platter is a South Carolina low-country fried chicken breast recipe with french fries and Southern coleslaw. If you’d like a carb that’s not fried, the smashed potatoes topped with parsley are a delicious side. Or sub in an Alex Salad for an even cooler choice. A mixed-drink favorite to add sweetness to the savory chicken pieces in Mr. Jack’s Platter is the Citrus Crush, made with Ten To One White Rum, Wheatley Vodka, Orange Juice, and Pineapple Juice. If you prefer wine, a medium-bodied merlot like Markham Napa Valley, served by both the glass and the bottle, will complement the strong flavors of the fried chicken and sides.
