Uncle C's Chicken & Waffles

When thinking of dynamic food duos, fried chicken and waffles are near the top of that list. The delicious combination of savory and crunchy fried chicken paired beautifully with the sweet and fluffy waffle is hard to beat. It’s a satisfying bite every time.


In 2021, Sayed Q. (Uncle C) opened his restaurant right off I-495 on Richmond Hwy in Alexandria, bringing this classic combo to the forefront. Their motto is simple yet perfect: “Uncle C’s is where sweet meets savory!” And they certainly deliver on that promise.


Along with their signature fried chicken and waffles, the menu offers hearty breakfast platters featuring eggs, bacon, sausage, and French toast. For a grab-and-go option, there are breakfast sandwiches and hash browns, making it an ideal morning stop.


As fried chicken sandwiches have surged in popularity, Uncle C’s has kept up with an impressive selection. The Nashville sandwich comes with slaw and spicy dressing for a kick, while the Atlanta is more indulgent with honey butter and cheese. For those wanting a lighter option, they even offer a grilled chicken version.


If you’re in the mood for seafood, the Atlantic cod sandwich or fried shrimp platters are solid choices. On the side, Uncle C’s prepares a variety of options daily, from slaw and corn on the cob to seasoned rice, fries, potatoes, mac & cheese, yams, spinach, and even a seafood salad.


But the star of the show is undoubtedly the fried chicken and waffles. The waffles are fluffy and served with syrup and butter, while the fried chicken, whether you prefer wings, thighs, legs, or tenders, is cooked to perfection. It’s a match made in comfort food heaven.


Uncle C’s is a relaxed fast-casual spot with big, comforting flavors that will leave you full and ready for a nap. If you’re craving filling, home-style comfort food, Uncle C’s Chicken & Waffles should definitely be on your list.
