In Short
A trademark infringement lawsuit lodged by an L.A. chicken shack prompted owners of this Bronzeville joint to change its name, but the lip-smacking soul food remains. Dark wood accents, earth-toned walls hung with paintings and pictures of African-American icons and a smattering of high-backed, upholstered booths and rich wood tables create an upscale feel. As jazz emanates through the space, hordes waiting for seating salivate over fried chicken and thin waffles with syrup, fried catfish and mac and cheese. Sides like yams, collard greens, grits and cornbread add sustenance; sprightly onion gravy is on hand to moisten what seems dry.
