| - Lo-Lo's Chicken & Waffles is legitimately not a bad pick if you ever find yourself stuck in PHX on a layover for whatever reason.
Among the top chicken and waffle joints in the United States, Lo-Lo's is often mentioned among them, and for good reason. This is actually the recommended place of Charles Barkley, and he definitely knows his food, for better or worse. Normally, you wouldn't expect the same level of quality in its airport counterpart. I wouldn't know, since I haven't actually been to the actual place.
However, I can attest that the airport location satisfies the craving just as well. I decided to go with the Puffs Chicken Tender Basket, since I prefer my chicken boneless, and I wasn't let down. I got a few big pieces of chicken, probably one more than they were actually supposed to give me and a tasty waffle. Provided were syrup, butter, and BBQ sauce, all you really need to enjoy a good chicken and waffles dish. I found it very filling for a generous price of $11.95, which I find very good by airport standards.
One thing I'll note is that the sides are really pricey, and as much as I'd like some greens, I'm not paying over $5 for a side of greens. That's one big downer. Nonetheless, the entrees get the job done at just about the right price.
Another thing is that this location is before security, which is unfortunate, so I had to leave the security area to grab my chicken and waffles, but with a few hours to kill, it was well worth it, besides the slow security process back in.
TIP: Definitely get the waffles. I would recommend that with any chicken dish, whether you prefer bone or boneless.
