Pecking House

Came to this fast casual spot after seeing it all over tiktok and it did not disappoint. We got the classic sando, the salted egg quarter chicken, and the chili half chicken with chicken salt fries and dirty friend rice on the side.The classic sando was pretty big and I really enjoyed how the crunchy chicken paired with the soy sauce pickles. The sandwich was perfectly moist from the juicy chicken and the house sauce and definitely worth a try when you come. (7.5/10)The salted egg chicken was super unique. I enjoyed how the umami taste of the salted egg and would definitely recommend this to those looking to try something new. (8/10)As a spice lover, the chili half chicken was definitely my favorite. The chili sauce that it is coated in was divine and you can tell that the chili oil is made in house with a unique taste. Also the half chicken came with both dark and white meat and both pieces were equally as tender and juicy. (9/10)The chicken salt fries were addicting and the dirty fried rice was one of my favorite parts of this meal. (8.5/10)The staff was super friendly and helpful with the menu and the seating is limited. Would definitely come back on my next trip to NY!

Juicy in the inside, crunchy and crispy on the outside, this fried chicken was so good it had me thinking about it afterward. I got the salted egg sauce and the umami from the salted egg combined with the chicken was such a great combo. I highly recommend. The corn bread was also good but probably not worth the amount I paid for. Overall the food was good, the price was decent.

My sis-n-law and her now husband reserved this place for a wedding rehearsal dinner. This is one of their favorite places, and they fell in love here during the pandemic before it was a brick and mortar place. So they shared it with us all. The staff greeted us right away and shared a little about what makes this place and the food so special. We had a pre-planned menu that was so good! And so much food! The flavors on everything continued to amaze the table. I could rant about the chicken, but I'll just put a plug in for the cheddar cornbread! Get it!!One thing I loved was the self-serve water station had two spouts--one for still and one for sparkling. Brilliant and thoughtful. So glad we came here!

Came on a hungry day and tried out their quarter chicken with salted egg. I like the light crisp to the chicken skin and it wasn't heavy. The salted egg also added umami and richness. The dirty rice complimented it well, but I do wish it had more to it. Eating along side with the chicken is really good, but by itself was plain.

Too much chili oil or something was off in the ratio last time I went. I have a pretty high spice tolerance and it wasn't really that it was too spicy it just left a weird taste in my mouth. It was almost unenjoyable not because of the flavor necessarily but the effect. It was like too much of a good thing and I couldn't appreciate the flavor anymore because it was overwhelming. I also didn't love the blackened chicken flavor wise. Would still go back but not quite as consistent as I'd hoped.

Been wanting to try this neighborhood spot for a while and finally came and ordered the corn bread, dirty rice, classic sando, and Tofu PoBoy. The sandwiches were great, but the sides were our favorite, both the cornbread and the rice were delicious! We will absolutely be back!

Glad I got to try this in NY and not as a pop up in SF where the waits would have been crazy.A casual Tuesday lunch for 3. We orderedChili flavored half chicken - regular spicy I think? It was great, a little kick, nothing crazy and slightly sweet. I was worried about a "too numbing" flavor but that wasn't the case and it was pretty good.salted egg wings - YUM!!!! this flavor was so good on the wing, crispy, juicy, well flavored! we should have ordered another one haha.turnip with miso butter - oh you know, we thought it was healthy-ish to fight the heavy chicken lol but it was nice. pretty tasty actually, you do taste the...pine nuts? yummy too. very different as a side.overall it was yummy, I think it helps there's no line, no frills. definitely would get again!

Love their chili chicken meal - WOW! The thigh was so soft, crunchy, nicely seasoned + meaty. Super flavorful! The cheddar cornbread w/ apple honey was also divine - tasted like a cake. The chili chicken sando was also super delicious!The watermelon drink was ok. Tons of indoor seating. Staff was friendly.

I really wish I could've tried the famous fried chicken that went viral but alas because it was not halal I had to try one of the veggie options which was the mushroom poboy. It was just mid to say the least and way too salty. I get that this is primarily a fried chicken spot and did appreciate there were two veggie friendly sandwiches on the menu but it was a total miss for me. My friend really liked it though! So guess it really is whatever your palate favors. I personally liked how chewy and firm the bread was vs my friend not so much so it's definitely something I can see people being divided over but I didn't think it was worth the visit or the stomach space. But my curiosity was satiated! Appreciated there was a water station.

It's fun when a spot is removed from the bookmarks and added to the rotation. The chili chicken was a knockout, growing spicier as time passes (and also messier than it looks, try not to get sauce on your phone). While few vegetarians will be looking for a spot that offers dishes like mashed potatoes with duck heart, there's a clear commitment to bold flavors here no matter what you get. The butterbean salad with black vinegar was far more assertive than the usual side items. There's free sparkling water.
