At this off-the-beaten-path neighborhood spot, the namesake dish is made up of double-buttermilk-battered bird sprinkled with smoked paprika, onto which the famed honey butter melts. It's sweet and salty genius. The back patio rocks, especially once the Ginger Mules and other cocktails start flowing. No reservations, so expect a queue.
