I remember my mother going to buy Harold’s Chicken. I have eaten Harold’s Chicken in 49 years. When I was a little girl there was only one Harold’s Chicken it’s good to know that they are still in Busness. 🐓🐓🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗🍗
This takes me back to another time and place. When you eat something as a child and it retains the same taste you have a win er. I miss home and I miss the chicken shack on 64th and Cottage Grove.
Yeah went to the one in Atlanta and it was lit. It had a bar, karaoke, and the food was fye. Wish they could do something like that here in Chicago but it unfortunately wouldn’t work.
Carl Palmer I visited Harolds ATL the bar one!!! Chicken was fireeeee. They bought one out here to Cali.. And lets just say......i wont go back!!!! Sad.. But I knowww normally their chicken is 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Chitown represent! I'm currently chillin' in D.C. which claim they have the bomb Mambo sauce. Now check this out. Mambo is a type of what we Chicagoans call Mild sauce but in DC its Mambo, okay, fine. But listen up, The guy who invent the sauce in DC is originally from Chitown. Yes, D.C. I know you reading this. The brother is a Chicagoan. Now all he did was made up a batch of mild sauce and call it Mambo for the GoGo heads. Thats all he did. Big up, to Chi/D.C.

Love this! Black host supporting black business!! ✊🏿✊🏾✊🏽 In DC we have mumbo sauce but my dad’s side is from South side chicago. And nothing can compare to mild sauce!! And damn can they fry chicken properly up there!!
I’m from Chicago, ain’t never heard nobody say this the best Harold’s, Hyde park, 75th & king drive and 87th & state are known all over the city as the best ones....gone have to see what’s up with this one
O my God!! I miss Chicago and all the restaurants especially, Harold Chicken and fish tails, delicious, and Fat Albert on 69 an Ashland the Italian Beef double dip with cheese, I want to move back🙂 I miss Chicago 😉
I"m from Chicago and I know about Harold's Chicken And yes its very Good and the Fried Fish too😄😄😄😄😄😄 I wish we had a Harold's Chicken Shack where I live right now
Awesome video, short, sweet straight point, packed with flavor and info. It's been a few years since I've been Chicago but when I do come back stopping into this exact location. Thanks for posting
I'm here in Cali. I haven't been to Harold's -- in Chicago -- in over 3 years; I'm so weak. They do have one in Cali (North Hollywood), but it's not the same. When I went there, they charged much more money and they put too much salt on the chicken, and barely give you any sauce, which is the most important thing because drowning your chicken in sauce - which melts in your mouth - is one of the signatures of Harold's Chicken. Hopefully they fixed this problem - but I don't know. I would rather - literally - jump on the plane just to get some Harolds, and some nice Chi-town BBQ.
While I don't doubt that some fast food franchises didn't want to open in the Southside of Chicago, Harold's opened their first location in 1950. Popeyes KFC opened their first location ever in the early 1950's. Popeyes (1972) and Churches (1952) were also found after Harold's opened their first location. So, what about burgers? McD's first Illinois location opened in 1955. Five years after Harold's opened their first location. Wendy's was founded much later than KFC, since the founder of Wendy's, was a KFC franchise owner. Burger King was founded in 1953 in Florida. So, again, after Harold's first opened. Jack in the Box- founded 1951 in San Diego, CA. I don't know what fast food franchises that are founded/based in the Mid West are. Maybe, she was talking about those chains. But, the major national chains, were founded after Harold's first opened!
Nope, that Mambo is mild sauce my brother. I'm born bred Chicagoan living in D.C. and the brother that created Mambo sauce is a Chicagoan. Trust me. Its nothing but mild sauce with a name change bro. Then again, maybe there were some spicies added or removed however nothing but mild sauce. Either way, I enjoy Mild/Mambo sauce!
@@tabbycats4u3kitten66 oh wow, I def didn’t know that. It’s been a minute since I had Harold’s. Thanks for letting me know I would have been tweaking like wth I know I’m not seeing ish. 😂
Girl what??? I, too, am a Chi-Town native and I personally believe Chicago has the best food!! I don’t eat meat anymore but when I did Harold’s was the spot!!! With or without the mild sauce the chicken was crisp and seasoned to perfection, but the mild sauce is on point!
You gotta go to the chicken spot in the Hillside Bowling Alley. Get that Gpack, they drench the chicken and fries in mild sauce, then they give you a large cup of mild sauce if you feel that you need more.
That looks so good why Chicago has the best fried chicken I live in Arizona which we can have something like that here and I bet it tastes so good I wish I was in your shoes to be in Chicago
Appreciate the love!
