I know there are many restaurants around town that have really good fried or broasted chicken, but there is one I have been going back to again and again over the years……
Magnolia’s Restaurant over on the East Side of St Paul.
1081 Payne Avenue 651-774-3333 Hours Daily 6:30am-9:30pm
You get a 1/2 chicken, bowl of soup or salad, and fresh cut fries and service with a smile for under $10. The batter on the chicken is crispy and salty, well seasoned and flavorful while the chicken is moist and juicy.
I usually get the Chicken Wing Meal (7 whole wings). Comes with soup or salad, fresh cut fries. 4 wings/$8 or 7 wings/$9.50. I definitely take the extra wings for only $1.50 more, then I have a little snack for later ;)

Now only if they could work on the breakfast special of fried chicken and waffles! YUM!
