A local Montgomery favorite has been named as the best fried chicken spot in Alabama.

Martin's Restaurant was included among Mashed's list of the best fried chicken in every state, which was published earlier this year.

Martin's Restaurant, located at 1796 Carter Hill Road in Montgomery, is a family-owned business that has operated since the 1930s, making it the oldest full-service restaurant in the city.

The Montgomery mainstay serves a "meat and three" style lunch popular in the southeast.

"When delicious fried chicken is what you're craving, Martin's Restaurant is exactly what you need," Mashed's Kori Ellis writes. "While they have quite an extensive menu, their most popular item is called Martin's Famous Fried Chicken. Try this amazing fried chicken once, and you'll understand why it has gained fame and why we've selected it as the best the state of Alabama has to offer. You can find Martin's Restaurant, which has been around since the 1930s, in the city of Montgomery."
