Yelp determined the best place to order fried chicken in every state.
Some restaurants are known for their classic fried chicken sandwiches, while others offer unique takes such as Korean fried chicken.

When it comes to fried chicken, some spots simply do it a little better than others.

In honor of National Fried Chicken Day on July 6, Yelp identified businesses in the restaurants and food categories with a large concentration of reviews mentioning "fried chicken," then ranked those spots using a number of factors including the total volume and ratings of reviews mentioning "fried chicken." When available, all businesses on this list also had to have a passing health score or a score greater than a B/80 as of July 1, 2020.

Every restaurant on the list is also either open for dine-in or offering limited delivery, takeout, or curbside service as of July 1, 2020.
