Uncle Lou's Fried Chicken

Uncle Lou's is defined by crisp chicken and the sweet, tangy sauce developed by Lou Martin. The relocated Winchester Road shop keeps that combination intact, with biscuits and Southern sides rounding out the tray. Try a mixed piece order to compare how the coating and sauce behave on white and dark meat, or choose wings for the most sauce in each bite.

Uncle Lou's coats wings in the sweet, tangy sauce that made the restaurant a Memphis fried chicken landmark. The current Winchester Road location preserves that recognizable flavor after the move from Millbranch. Wings offer more surface for the sauce than a larger chicken piece, while biscuits and Southern sides turn the order into a full meal rather than a snack.
