Restaurant · South Loop

"Harold’s is the fried chicken Chicago natives crave the most when they leave town, especially garnished with mild sauce. Since they’re all individually-owner franchises, each location is slightly different but they all make their food to order. There’s seating, but Harold’s is primary a takeout operation." - Samantha Nelson
