Rooster & The Crow Wilmington

I have seen a lot of hype about this restaurant on social media, so today, when we were downtown, we gave them a try. The Hype is legit. This restaurant is the real deal. We ordered the Fried Chicken with Green Beans and Fried Cabbage, as well as the Wilmywood Chicken Sandwich with Fries. The Fried Chicken is excellent. It is some of the best Fried Chicken I have ever tried. It was cooked perfectly, and the flavor was outstanding. It came with a breast, wing, thigh & leg. Every piece, regardless of dark or white meat, was juicy and delicious. (see pictures) The Fried Cabbage was cooked in what looked and tasted like bacon fat. It had small pieces of Bacon in it. It was mind-blowing and fantastic. The Green Beans were the best I have ever had. They had a very flavorful taste, like they are cooking them in a sauce or with some other vegetables. I don't know, but they are really damn good. The Wilmywood Chicken Sandwich was enormous, on a delicious bun & had perfectly cooked bacon on it. The chef obviously knows how to develop flavors. The location is lovely. It is right across from the Cape Fear River. We sat outside, and it was really nice. I believe our server's name was Wes, and he was outstanding. He was also assisted by a lady who also did a great job. This is one of the best restaurants in Wilmington. This Restaurant is a must-try if you visit or live in the area.

Let me just say that if you are craving some crispy and delicious fried chicken, THIS is the spot!! And the amount of food they give you, lets just say i had leftovers. The mac and cheese was phenomenal, and the potato salad was very good as well. And i can not forget about the fried green tomatoes they were amazing! And the cocktails were refreshing. I'm definitely going back in a few weeks when we visit again!!
