MAX's Wine Dive

The 12 Best Restaurants For Fried Chicken In Houston - Houston - The Infatuation

"The Southern fried chicken dinner is why you go to Max’s. The dive bar offers a pricier chicken (a three-piece for $24), but it’s worth it. The balance between the crunch of the jalapeño-buttermilk fried drumstick skin and the spicy sweetness of the chipotle honey sauce is perfect. Open until midnight on the weekends, this Washington Avenue spot is a perfect choice for late-night comfort food. Or grab your friends for brunch, when Max's throws fried chicken tenders on top of a belgian waffle." - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
