Ma Lou's Fried Chicken

Absolutely delicious!!! The staff is really nice. I had the chicken tacos and they were really good.

The vegetarian sandwiches here have always been absolutely fantastic. The chef really knows how to cook a piece of tofu. This place is perfect for hitting that craving for a juicy, filling, spicy sandwich. Which is hard to find in any vegetarian sandwich elsewhere!

Have to admit that I went here for a more traditional fried chicken experience. That's the problem with expectations, they only set you up for disappointment. To clarify a bit. The chicken and breading were fried to perfection. The prices on the other hand are WAY up there. It's to be expected in a college town, but still quite unreasonable for fried chicken. The sauces definitely show an Indian influence. Very very seasoned, over seasoned if you are not expecting it. IMHO it would be nice to have more options for a mellow sweet, more traditional sauce that some may expect before getting hit by the whole world of spices in one meal, way too much to take in. I still recommend a visit and forming ones own opinion, just go without the expectation of a traditional southern soul food experience because you will not be happy.

Exemplary. Their pumpkin praline mousse is perfect. Super rich, creamy, and flavorful without being too sweet. The pralines are neat too. I'm used to them being almost candy coated, but these much more subtlety flavored and complemented the mouse and whipped cream really well. Their fries are spot on as well. The people seem really cool and I like the vibe/ambiance. Inexpensive gem.
