Willie Bird’s restaurant in Santa Rosa has great pan fried chicken and it’s their Tuesday night special right now…soup or salad, potato and veggies for $10.95

I do love the crispy goodness of a perfectly fried fowl but I must dispute Oyster Rockefellers place in your pantheon. Two measly pieces not well battered for a very high price. Stormy’s is way better but it takes a very long time to get served. I look forward to foraging out to try some of the other suggestions.

Can we get back to bacon? Is pork belly a “that’s so 2008″ menu trend also? If so, Heather, what is the new food/ingredient trend???

My vote goes to the Red Rose Cafe. Go on Wednesday or Thursday, lunch of dinner, for the buffet and try their other treats while you are at it.

I believe there are a few omissions here. First, What about Negri’s in Occidental. The Fried Chicken is Fresh…every day. Excellent Fritto Pollo. Second, has anyone ever stopped by Raleys around 5:30 anu afternoon and picked up one of the fresh fried chicken? Tasty for under $7.

The Duck Club is an awesome restaurant for anniversaries and special dinners. It is a small, intimiate dining room. My favorite restaurant in Sonoma County. They also feature local, fresh products.

Well, I was recently out at The Duck Club restaurant for a birthday dinner and had the fried chicken -and was wholly impressed! The new Executive Chef out there is only 29 years old- and the new menu was amazing!!!
The Chef came out and wished me a happy birthday himself-nice.
They also had an entire menu that was made from just one pig, which came from a farm a couple miles away. Our server was awesome too.
We have reservations for Christmas dinner there-can’t wait!

BarbersQ, true BBQ, damm good fried chicken, great wine list, service and management very good. For being in a shopping center BarberQ is a huge surprise and is one of my stops when in Napa. Not a hole-in-the- wall kind of BBQ joint, but very good place to land at for damm good food.

one other ad hoc note– I went for fried chicken a few months ago with a friend who didn’t want fried chicken (even though that goes against the whole ad hoc ethos and makes no sense.) But they were very cool about it– and they made him fried skate instead! Only at at a Thomas Keller restaurant, perhaps, but there you go.

Ad Hoc also serves their awesome fried chicken on the alternating Wednesdays. Worth the trip to Yountville.
You can find this great fried chicken recipe that is supposed to be from Ad Hoc online, just google it.
