Beloved Ohio Restaurant Serves The 'Best Fried Chicken' In The State

Fried chicken may be strongly associated with indulgent Southern comfort cuisine and heartwarming soul food, but you can find the crispiest, tastiest bites all over the country, from Nashville hot chicken smothered in spicy sauce to filling sandwiches loaded with slaw and even sweet and savory combinations like chicken and waffles.

According to a list compiled by Taste of Home, the best friend chicken in all of Ohio can be found at Belgrade Gardens. This Akron-area restaurant has been serving up its "famous chicken dinners" since 1933, per its website, so you can bet this eatery knows what's what when it comes to delicious fried chicken. Belgrade Gardens, located at 401 E. State Street in Barberton, has a 4.3 star rating on Google and nearly 1,500 review.

Here's what Taste of Home had to say about the fried chicken served at this beloved establishment:

"What better place to sink your teeth into the crispiest, crunchiest chicken than the 'Fried Chicken Capital of the World'? Belgrade Gardens not only lives up to its city's nickname with its juicy pieces (the owner was the first to serve the chicken back), it also offers a hot relish for dipping unlike anything we've tasted."
