New King House

Located on Roosevelt Avenue, this counter has fed neighborhood regulars since childhood. The kitchen turns out plates like shrimp lo mein—where the shrimp is fried with egg—and crunchy, flavorful crispy chicken that regulars note can be greasy. While the storefront itself is a little run down, the staff is accommodating when asked for extras, and drivers have even been known to bring orders to unconventional spots like a nearby parking lot movie event.
