Fried chicken is probably one of the best foods created! I have been eating it since a little girl. I have memories of my grandmother making it for me and my sister when we got out of school. Not everyone can make a great fried chicken. Some people make it greasy and hard. Below are the restaurants in Florida that get it right! Juicy, tender and fried chicken that falls off the bone. The perfect crisp is also important. Below are the 5 best fried chicken restaurants in Florida. Do you have any we should add? Send an email to Babs@wild941.com

• Kings Fried Chicken

  I love Kings Fried Chicken so much! I was first introduced to the restaurant by a coworker and have fell in love ever since. It’s located in St. Petersburg and the Fried chicken has the perfect  amount of seasoning. The skin on the chicken has the perfect crisp as well! Make sure you try the honey biscuits!

  Dixie Fried Chicken is a hidden gem in Belle Glades Florida. It’s a low key restaurant that serves up some great food. According to a national survey, they have the best fried chicken in Florida. If you are able to go, make sure you get fried okra and banana pudding.

• Loyd Have Mercy

  I actually had some of my listeners call in about Loyd Have Mercy. They are a restaurant located in Titusville and they make everything from scratch.  According to one caller “all of their chicken is fried to perfection.” Nothing that they serve is greasy and they leave you wanting more.  Another caller says she wishes they would put a location here in the Tampa Bay Area.
