Yankee Doodle Dandy's

BY FAR the best Chicken and Fries joint anywhere! The food is so delicious and leaves you wanting more!! The staff here is so amazing, someone even came and helped my mother who is disabled sit! Please if your in the area, treat yourself!

This place has some awesome chicken. I am honestly going to dislike going back home and eating fried chicken elsewhere. If you are visiting or living in NYC make this your stop

Best southern style chicken tenders in NYC.
If you’re a fan of Guthrie’s down south or Raising Cane’s then you will feel right at home.

Their tenders are plump and juicy and made fresh,
unlike fast food places that claim to sell chicken tenders but really use low quality thinly sliced breast meat or worse blended chicken.

The point I’m trying to make is if you like fried chicken this is a great spot, give it a try, and while you’re there read about the guy who started the business with his winnings from Who Wants to be a Millionaire.

I had the BEST chicken tender sandwich I have ever had in my life. I know that sounds like hyperbole, but I am not exaggerating when I say that this chicken is so juicy, tender, flavorful, and delicious that you want to eat it EVERY DAY.

You have to add the '76 Sauce to your sandwich. I swear it has a magical flavor profile. I was dipping my French fries (another well seasoned menu item) in their sauce. My tongue was so happy with all the flavor combinations.

I want to go back and try everything on the menu.

Well done, YDD!

As someone who has sampled the majority of the chicken tenders served around Times Square, the ones from Yankee Doodle Dandy's are 100% the best! The chicken is nice and crispy on the outside while still moist in the middle and the seasoning is so good. I have to stop myself from coming here everyday for lunch.

Not sure why there are so many one-star reviews from people who have never reviewed another place in New York City, looks to be a brigade from out of state haters who have no founding in their reviews.
