The 14 Best Fried Chicken Spots In Atlanta

"Mukja Korean Fried Chicken is not a place where you have to ask for your chicken fried hard—it's standard here. The Midtown spot has everything we love in an excellent fried bird: a light crispy exterior (where the chicken doesn't get lost in breading), an inside that stays tender and juicy, and savory seasonings that penetrate deep into the meat. Slide through for the half bird combo with tasty sides like elbow macaroni in smoked gouda sauce or the spicy Korean slaw loaded with scallion and garlic. And with free Midtown parking, nothing should keep you from joining Mukja's crew of takeout regulars and lunching coworkers who, like us, revere this place." - jacinta howard
