"For much of Chicago — especially its Black residents — Harold’s outpaces hot dogs, pizza, and Italian beef as the definitive taste of the city. The locations, mostly on the South Side, vary in quality as each is run independently. The West Loop location is meant to capitalize on the United Center crowds. The chicken is fried in beef tallow and fans love to smother their birds in mild sauce, a unique Chicago condiment that has cult popularity." - Ashok Selvam
