Profile

107 West is a great success story in this neighborhood. The food is consistently good, and the menu just varied enough to keep you interested. In fact, the fried chicken beats its competition at almost all the southern-food meccas up here. The chicken wings with blue-cheese dipping sauce, tender fried calamari that isn’t oily, and crisp salads are all reliable. There’s damn good chicken-sausage-and-shellfish-packed jambalaya, and blackened catfish too. The ice-cream mocha mud pie is irresistible, and the macadamia apple crisp is a close second.

Brunch

Sat.—Sun., 11 a.m.—4 p.m.

Recommended Dishes

Southern fried half chicken, $12.50; jambalaya, $17.50

I went here after a wine cruise on the hudson and have to say the food was definately edible and the service average. I was a little tipsy and with some friends and we all had a great time but overall id say this place is good but nothing really stands out. For a decent bite on the UWS I would eat here but its not a special occasion or date place.

I second the praise for the fried chicken -- and I've done the taste testing. They serve a full half chicken in two quarters: wing (first joint) + breast, and leg + thigh. Ingeniously, the breast and thigh are boned while the leg and wing retain theirs, allowing the pieces to cook through perfectly evenly, crisp and grease-less. Brilliant. And thanks in advance to anyone who can come up with the terrific breading formula!
