Former Mad for Chicken spot for rent on 14th Street

This came up in the comments of the Koko Wings post from last week. The former Mad for Chicken outpost at 230 E. 14th St. between Second Avenue and Third Avenue is now for rent (signage arrived last week). 

The quick-serve spot that served soy garlic fried chicken and Korean-inspired dishes closed last fall. There's an eviction notice dated from November 2023 posted on the front door. It first opened here in late 2021.

MFC, which started in Flushing in 2005, still has other locations in the NYC metropolitan area.

  2. They had the BEST fried chicken! The chicken itself was fresh and tasty. Their wings were also a lot bigger than other places. I see they have a location over near 9th Ave which is still accessible via the M14.

    I haven't seen any mention of the relatively new Raising Cane's. I tried it a couple times when they first opened, and found it decidedly bland compared to the Korean chicken experience. I think I'll be heading over to MFC on 8th Ave every now and then.
