• Ezell's Famous Chicken, 23rd at Jefferson, 206-324-4141. Ezell's gained wide renown when Oprah Winfrey declared it her favorite, but it really needs no celebrity endorsements; it's hands-down the best stuff around. This flagship location sits directly across from Garfield High School. There's no seating, but they recently started accepting credit cards. Two versions of Ezell's famous chicken are offered, spicy and original. The spicy is not too spicy but you can get a side of hot sauce for 11 cents extra. Daily specials vary based on forcasted surplus of unsold chicken. You can sometimes get thighs for $1/each.
