Ezell's Famous Chicken
Loading map…
Ezell's has been a Seattle institution since 1984, widely regarded as the definitive local fried chicken experience and a cultural touchstone for the Central District neighborhood where it was born. The chicken strips are a perennial favorite, praised for their even seasoning, proper crunch, and juicy interior that holds up long after leaving the counter. Oprah Winfrey famously had Ezell's shipped to Chicago, cementing its status well beyond the Pacific Northwest.
