Coonie's Kitchen - Milwaukee

Best fried chicken in town. Wish they would make the original ginger/cilantro recipe an option or just bring it back. I used to get it all the time. It was one of the best flavor profiles.

It was a Friday night and all I knew was: I cannot possibly cook another meal this week. I took out my Yelp app and literally opted for the first biz listed in my weekly recommendations and ordered takeout. We ordered their chicken tender family dinner. It comes with 12 chicken tenders, potato wedges, coleslaw, and a 2 liter for, wait for it, $18.99. Dinner for my fam for less than $20? Sold! We weren't sure what to expect and drove up to find that this spot is a little chicken shack attached to a gas station (the best places are those little holes in the wall, amirite? . Our food came piping hot in an enclosed rectangular aluminum container, which was nice as it was still piping hot when we got home. We really enjoyed the chicken and potatoes which fed my family of 3 for two nights. The coleslaw was pretty scant (we got two tiny, salad dressing sized containers of it . But, everything else was so plentiful, we didn't mind too terribly much. A great little hole in the wall serving up some delish fried chicken! And, hey...they have shawarma plate as well? Definitely trying that next. Get to it!

Best chicken spot I've encountered in Greater Milwaukee so far. Definitely going to be one of our go to spots. Downside: onion rings. They're soggy.

Hands down the absolutely THE BEST wings I have ever had!! Fries were fire as hell! I will be going back!!

I'm confused. This used to be the best fried chicken I've ever had, but tonight the chicken we got had minimal flavor. Is it under new management? we also didn't get the coleslaw that was supposed to come with it.
