Mr D’s

Time has stopped on Mr. D’s. The sign’s special (Double cheeseburger with fries, large drink) hasn’t changed in the past decade, the neon is growing old, lightbulbs are missing around the edges.
Yet the food remains as good as when I was a child.
Mr. D’s offering of deep-​fried delectable dishes has remained consistent in quality throughout the years I’ve occasionally eaten there. The burgers are great thin-​patty fair, the spicy fried chicken remains my favorite in the city. The staff is friendly and quick on their heels.
If you’re not afraid of a few carbs, Mr. D’s is a great affordable lunch/​dinner option on the go.

Finally ate here for the 1^st time ever, after all these years of passing by. I had the mushrooms and i have to say… they are the best fried mushrooms i have ever had in my life, and i’ve had alot. They tasted so homemade, and the batter was kinda spicy and excellent.

When making your way through the alphabet, be sure to stop at the 4^th letter in and try Mr. D’s on the southside of Henderson.
I confess, this isn’t my first time here. I’ve visited this Henderson institution pre-​Yelp, numerous times, but this is the first time I’ve been back since. It hasn’t changed much in the last couple decades. Reminiscent to a Sonic, a drive-​in style order system, fairly made-​to-​order food brought directly to your car window. Their specialty is spicy fried chicken. Wonderfully crispy, moist and tasty chicken at that, using Colonel Jim’s recipe which is a mainstay at several restaurants in this area of western Kentucky.
Burgers are good too, so is the Oreo Milkshake, so says my youngest. He’s fairly discerning. I trust him. Unless he’s talking about whether he’s finished his homework.
Darn. Forgot the picture. Ah well, I’m sure I’ll be back.
