Recommendations

"The chicken is crunchy, juicy, simple and pretty much perfect. So perfect that the handful of people on staff allowed to make what they call the chicken dredge — basically all the good stuff on the outside — have to sign confidentiality clauses to keep the recipe secret. The only ingredient owners are willing to share is black pepper, which they use just enough of to give the chicken a unique kick without overpowering it."
"You might be interested in the secret brine and breading of The Eagle OTR’s finger-licking fried chicken."
"The Eagle rustles up fantastic fried chicken (dipped in spicy honey)."
"Any time you talk about fried chicken in Cincinnati or Northern Kentucky someone is bound to mention The Eagle Food & Beer Hall in Over the Rhine. The Eagle’s fried chicken truly is something to talk about. It’s very tasty!"
"The Eagle's claim to fame: fried chicken, beer, and good times. And yes, the chicken's so good it'll make the South pack up its bags and cross the Ohio."
"The chicken was very juicy - I'm a sucker for chicken thighs - so I was in heaven with 2 thighs and a leg. I think I'm still in search of my favorite fried chicken - but this was definitely good stuff."
"You have to try the fried chicken, especially on your first visit. The cage-free, all natural chicken is brined and dredged and then dropped into custom-made fryers. It's perfectly crispy, juicy, has the right amount of kick, and is served with the house-made hot honey."
"The Eagle OTR’s star attraction is undoubtedly her fried chicken. You’ll certainly know this bird if you’ve tasted it. The crisp, peppery crust is anything but demure, and once you’re hooked, it’s not a taste you’ll soon forget. The meat hits such a sweet spot—just firm enough, but still tender and yielding."
"One word – amazing. The breading was perfect. Nice and crunchy and flavorful but yet, the meat was still tender. And, the hot honey? Holy crap, I could have funneled it. Who needed that baby spoon? I was dunking my chicken right into it! It’s sticky goodness was a little slice of heaven."

"Perfectly crispy fried chicken and a jar of hot honey to smother it - this is easily the best friend chicken in Cincinnati! I also love their Mac n cheese."
