The service is friendly and the food is very good. I definitely recommend it if you want some chicken on the run.

The best fried chicken on earth and strongly recommend any visitors to experience the souths greatest creation. McHardy's represents the essence of a southern staple and traditional dish to be proud of. Long live McHardy's

Maybe the best fried chicken I've ever had! Small place so plan on getting it to go, good parking in front helps. Loved the potato salad too.

From the first glance, this dish promises a delightful taste of Southern comfort. The golden-brown crust on the fried fish is inviting, hinting at a perfect blend of seasoning that's sure to satisfy. The fish appears tender and flaky, enveloped in a crispy exterior that delivers a satisfying crunch with every bite.The fried okra complements the fish beautifully, adding a touch of earthy flavor and an additional crispy texture. Each piece looks perfectly seasoned and fried to a light, crispy perfection, making it an ideal pairing with the fish.Adding to the charm is the pickle nestled alongside the fish and okra. The pickle's tangy, slightly sour taste is a refreshing contrast, balancing the rich, savory flavors of the fried elements. The dish sits atop a slice of soft white bread, which not only absorbs any excess oil but also provides a soft, comforting base to this hearty meal. The service was great even though I messed up signing the wrong receipt. She was patient making sure my order was correct. I love the pictures on the wall. They represent the New Orleans secondline culture.

The food is amazing. I'm GF but my boyfriend always begs me to take him.... And I always give in because the smell is satisfying enough! Not a place to sit and eat, definitely a takeout spot. Service is decently fast. Sometimes they run out of chicken and you can only get chicken nuggets which if not a problem because they also rock

Even after more years than I can count (before Katrina) I continue to eat and rate their fried chicken the BEST in NEW ORLEANS. My partner and I bought a house one block from Jazz Fest only to discover that an epicurean fried chicken feast was within walking distance. I proudly wear my purple McHardy's t-shirt BUT I lust after a PINK shirt...hint hint. Y'all know who I am. It goes without saying that I highly recommend McHardy's to EVERYONE. You will enjoy.

What can I say! McHardy's did it right as always. Ordered for work lunch about an hour and a half or so before trying to pick up. 60 pieces with a dozen or so bread and a couple of sides. I was a little early but the food was boxed and being escorted to my car. After telling them I needed the order split since they were going to two different offices, McHardys totally accommodated. They happily Placed some chicken with the rolls in one bag! So unfortunately, I didn't get to taste the chicken but been receiving texts from our entire cemetery and inscription crew saying it was delicious. which I already know this!! Thanks for making our crew happy - will be back!

Amazing fried chicken. Totally met (or even exceeded) the hype. Cashier told me her favorite sauce was Bourbon BBQ so of course I got one and it was a lovely combo of sweet & salty. Can't wait to go back!

This came highly recommended by a local. It did not disappoint. The fried chicken and accompanying sauces were finger licking good. I also loved the red beans and rice and the french fries. We understand this is a favorite take out spot for a picnic at City Park. This is strictly a take out joint, but the service is friendly and your food will come out piping hot.

Chicken was well seasoned and was freshly cooked. Red beans and rice were runny but good. Cluck sauce was average. Dirty rice was ok. Arnold Palmer and fruit punch drinks were good. Wish 5 piece came with a roll though. Everyone was nice except the older guy who I'm pretty sure is the owner. Before they opened I asked him where was the entrance and he had a lil snobbish attitude. His demeanor changed for the better once they opened though. Overall, this place does really good, seasoned food.
