Named by Gail Simmons as her favorite spot for takeout, Dirty Bird is a Manhattan favorite for some serious chicken delivery. With amazing fried chicken and a (healthier) chicken wrap that we actually can’t get enough of, this hole in the wall (now in multiple locations) has become a New York frenzied phenomenon.
“Have you tried Dirty Bird? I love their fried chicken.” – Michael Symon (Iron Chef)
