Got a hankering for chicken?

Hoodline crunched the numbers to find the best affordable chicken sources in Jersey City, using both Yelp data and our own secret sauce to produce a ranked list of where to fill the bill.

1. King’s Wok

Topping the list is King’s Wok. Located at 418 Baldwin Ave. in the Heights, this Chinese spot — which offers wings and chicken kebabs, in addition to Chinese food favorites — is the highest-rated, budget-friendly place to score chicken in Jersey City, boasting four stars out of 21 reviews on Yelp.

Yelper Vanessa A., who reviewed King’s Wok on Nov. 21, wrote, “This place is a hidden gem!!”

Siddhartha D. noted, “Great service and good food.”

2. Louisiana Fried Chicken

Next up is the West Side’s Louisiana Fried Chicken, situated at 549 West Side Ave. With four stars out of 22 reviews on Yelp, the fried chicken and fish spot has proved to be a local favorite for those looking for a low-priced option.

Yelper Karema A., who reviewed the business on Dec. 1, wrote, “Hands down, Louisiana Fried Chicken is one of the best fried chicken places I’ve ordered from. The food is excellent quality, and you really can’t beat the price for the amount of food you’re given.”

3. Victory Chicken House

Then there’s Victory Chicken House, also on the West Side, at 537A West Side Ave. Yelpers give this casual Filipino eatery, which serves up an array of traditional chicken dishes and more, 4.5 stars out of 11 reviews.
