This is probably the best chicken place I've ever been too. It's owned by the Pappy's people next door and shares a building with them. We came on a Friday night, about 6pm, and there was no wait at all. However, there is limited seating inside, so it is possible to not have a spot to eat upon arrival if they were to be busy. There is some seating outside near Pappy's, but that only works if the weather is nice. The Fried Chicken Sandwich was good. A big piece of chicken breast, and the bun was toasted and buttery. But the real star was the Chicken Tenders. My girl and I both enjoyed them more than any other we've ever tried. There have been several spots in the past that we used to frequent...
Typical issue went to Pappy’s, not patient enough to wait in the long line maybe next time. Went into Southern’s and the line was moving quite rapidly. 2 orders of Firebird Chicken Sandwiches and 3 piece tenders all with FRIES! Holy smokes joke at Pappy’s! The chicken was done to perfection, sauces great, and the seasoned fries were done perfectly! This is a GREAT place to go, not as a fall back to the long lines at Pappy’s, but just stand alone, the Southern can hold its own! Well done. I hear that the owners for the two establishments are one and the same! Great, working business model when feeding the masses. Also, what’s the deal with people expecting 5 star service when they pay 3 star...
I ordered the hot honey chicken strips, mac and cheese, and greens. Both the chicken and mac and cheese were delicious. The greens were decent, but they had a surprising sweetness to them, which I found a bit strange since greens typically aren’t sweet. The staff was friendly and let me swap the greens for some pretty good French fries. In total, I got 4 chicken strips, 2 sides, and a fountain drink for $20.
This is the best spot for a spicy chicken sandwich! The sides and appetizers are great as well. Occasionally, you might need to head over to Pappy's for your drinks, and the servers there can be quite rude. However, if you can avoid that, you’re in for an excellent dining experience.

Delicious! Came for lunch and didn't have a wait at all. Got three tenders (hot) and Mac n cheese. Heat level was perfect exactly as the menu describes. Friendly staff too. Will absolutely come back on my next trip!
Whenever I travel to St Louis I make it a point to come here. It’s my favorite maker of fried chicken. Makes my mouth water just thinking of their food. And they’re always so friendly.
I absolutely loved this restaurant! The special menu item was a standout for me. I’ve attached a photo of my meal for you to see!
Absolutely amazing. Some of the best food I’ve had in STL. Hot honey wrap is fire. Best greens I’ve had in a while!! Book a table now
Highly recommend for fried chicken fans. Superb Nashville style hot fried chicken and sides.
Good chicken fast. No frills counter order place with a small dining area.
