Mary Brown's Chicken
Owner-run Mary Brown's fried chicken at 425 10 St NW in Kensington, listed as halal but not yet verified. Mary Brown's certifies each franchise separately, so ask to see the certificate at the counter before you order. The chicken is the draw: when eaten in, it is fresh and juicy. Experiences here vary. The dining room is clean, and the owner is a highlight. Delivery has been less reliable: some orders arrived cold, and some took a long time. Before you order Eating in or picking up works better than delivery. Check your order at the counter before you leave, and make sure any promotion has been applied.
