Does Huey Magoo's have the best fried chicken? Locals can now weigh in.

Local restauranteur Buck Harris officially opened his second Huey Magoo's location in Ormond Beach on Monday, Sept. 19.

"I want great service, great food, a great atmosphere, and wholesome family values being given from my restaurant," Harris said.

Harris, of Ormond Beach, has been in the restaurant business since he was 8 years old, working alongside his family and their restaurants. Harris said he has over 30 years of experience working in restaurants and over 24 years of experience owning restaurants.

Huey Magoos was founded almost 19 years ago and has made its way around to five different states and will soon be adding more to that list. The restaurant serves chicken tenders, both hand-breaded or grilled, as well as sandwiches, wraps and salads.

According to a news release, Huey Magoo's serves "only the best 3% of chicken," meaning it is all-natural, and has no added hormones, preservatives, steroids or antibiotics. The company says it is known as "the filet mignon of chicken."

Huey Magoo's is located at 222 N. Nova Road.
