"Unbrined and coated with a miraculously thin, crisp crust that’s mainly skin, the birds at Mitchell’s Soul Food are supremely flavorful, and they’re served with all the traditional soul food sides, plus ones like tomatoes and okra, and beans flavored with ham. The decades-old restaurant is a Prospect Heights stalwart, and it’s a miracle the place is still here. Patronize it!" - Robert Sietsema
