Fried okra is a southern delicacy. The plant, with edible green seed pods, is used in a variety of cuisines worldwide. In the south, it is often breaded and deep-fried, like everything else! While you can't find fried okra everywhere, there are a handful of chains famous for serving plates, sides, and appetizers of the fried and delicious veggie.
Here are 5 chain restaurants with the best fried okra plates. One of the easiest places to enjoy fried okra is Cracker Barrel, where it is served with a golden Southern homestyle crunch. Diners head to the restaurant just for the veggie. 'Cracker Barrel has very good fried okra,' a Redditor says. Golden Chick, a Texas-based chain specializing in crunchy fried tenders, has delicious okra. 'I had okra and fries, both were crispy and very good,' a Facebooker says. It 'was delicious!' another added. As for the chicken? 'It's literally the best fried chicken I've ever had in my life,' writes one Redditor. Cook Out, a southern fast-food chain serving burgers, fries, and milkshakes, offers fried okra as a side dish at select locations. It costs approximately $2.39 and features crispy, cornmeal-breaded, deep-fried pieces. According to diners, it is cooked crispy, with a golden-brown breading. 'That would be my go to if it was at every location,' a Redditor confirms. 'I noticed okra on a Cook Out menu board a couple of years ago, ordered it, loved it, and later could not find it anywhere. I thought I'd dreamed it, and then found it on the menu at Cook Out in King, NC. It's as good as or better than I've had at ANY walk-in restaurant!' an Instagrammer writes. Cameron's Seafood, a fresh seafood restaurant and market with locations in Maryland and Pennsylvania, offers delicious fried okra on its menu, and it 'is great,' according to fans. The $6 side comes with 'crispy golden Okra bites, perfectly seasoned and fried to perfection,' the chain says. 'I LOOOVE the fried okra,' a Philadelphia patron wrote in a review. Gus's World Famous Fried Chicken serves equally famous fried okra as a side, which some diners maintain is basically the draw. 'Gus's fried chicken rocked! But I must confess that fried Okra was the dessert of the day for me. I could not put it down,' one TripAdvisor diner writes. 'Never thought Fried Okra would be this good,' an Instagrammer, Epicure Journeys, wrote in a post.
