Hitching Post Restaurant

Be prepared for some of the best fried chicken of your life. Was recommended by a friend and boy is the chicken juicy, tender, skin perfectly and lightly crispy. The fried spinach app is to die for, do try several orders of it. Homemade corn bread is delicious as well. Dish of the day was a fried whole bronzini which was almost better than the chicken. The fish was fresh and still tender and juicy with a perfect crispy exterior. Chandler was a charm at our lunch, highly recommended! Vegetarian options: Few salad options Parking: Paid street

Listen to me! .......Please...if you are looking for hot, fresh, well seasoned food, decent portion sizes, attentive and polite staff and great atmosphere, then you must go to the Hitching Post. You will not be disappointed. My mom, daughter and I were in DC for the day, we wanted some good soul food...and our expectations were exceeded to the umpth degree, The catfish was delicious (in my Tommy Davidson -Martin show voice). Nothing was over seasoned or too salty, the fish was fried to perfection, mac and cheese was flavorful and rich, the greens were succulent. We cleaned our plates! My only criticism would be, if I can even truly call it that is, they do not have yams on the menu. In my humble opinion, yams are the quintessential component of soul food. Please add yams to the menu! Anytime I'm back in DC, this will be my spot!

ABSOLUTELY AMAZING. Fresh, delicious food and very friendly service. Table for two, we ordered the fried spinach, neck bones and beans, and a four piece fried chicken with mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese. Add corn bread! The chicken and the spinach were OFF THE CHART. You gotta try this place.
