D & U Chicken

Facebook foodie groups and locals have been raving about this place. I came by the business last week with my wife but she changed her mind after we pulled up. This restaurant isn’t in the best part of town which I knew from reading comments online and I know the area well. I purposely just told my wife I was taking her to a secrete fried chicken place but when we pulled up she refused to park. From the outside it appears to be a run down fast food shop.
Anyway I went by here today solo while on lunch. I work downtown and it’s often hard to find a cheap and quick lunch spot that’s not over crowded with people trying to do the same. Despite the location and physical appearance the restaurant was very crowded. I ordered a four-​piece wing combo with fries at 1:30. The gentleman who took my order told me it would be 15 minutes. There weren’t any open seats so I went to wait in my truck. After 15 minutes I went back inside and still waited another 15 minutes before my order was ready.
This is clearly a community and family restaurant. While I waited I got a chance to check out all the baby pictures on the wall and socialize with all the other families waiting on their order.
Overall I enjoyed my fried chicken but I don’t understand what the hype was about. Yes it’s super cheap. My order was $ 5 including tax but the wings were small and barely had any meat on them. I will be back but next time I will order a breast or thigh and not come during peak lunch hour.
