If you’re hankering for something to really fill you up, the soul food at Lo-Lo’s Chicken and Waffles does the trick. Plus, the friendly staff at this casual dining joint will give you your fair share of a good time. Ignore your diet here — it’s best to indulge in such dishes as the macaroni and cheese, biscuits, mashed potatoes, and, of course, the fried chicken and waffles. Choose collard greens or grits to accompany the classic meal.
