There’s fast food and then there’s fast food. This is the good kind. Ezell’s was started by a transplanted Texan in 1984 right here in the CD. Its crispy, spicy, Southern-style chicken and equally scrumptious side dishes like coleslaw and sweet-potato pie have since spread nationwide and, in 2015, went international when Ezell's opened a restaurant in Dubai.
