Fodor's Expert Review Unidentified Flying Chickens

This straightforward local restaurant with an adorable name is a local alternative to the Bonchon chicken franchises—or, for that matter, the KFCs and Popeye’s—that proliferate in Manhattan. UFC serves organic, humanely raised birds from a farm it touts by name, fried crisp, spicy, and addictive with soy, garlic, or hot sauce. Other items on the menu will be familiar to Korean-style food lovers everywhere, but stick to the chicken, perhaps paired with one of the many craft beers on tap.
