"The parking on MLK between Lowery and Paschal boulevards is so scarce we had to circle the block to find a spot near this Crickets. Once we got in, though, we found a downstairs dining room with a wall of seating, an open-air patio upstairs, and a kitchen doing all kinds of wondrous things with a deep fryer. This won’t be your game-day spot (iPad-sized TVs ain’t cuttin’ it), but if you happen upon a parking spot, the fried fish, Dirty Bird wings, and red velvet slices from Scratch Batch Cakes make for a decent meal every other day." - nina reeder, juli horsford, demarco williams, jacinta howard
