South Philly Gets Spicy: Asad’s Hot Chicken Takes Over Snyder Avenue
South Philly, the wait is over.
Asad’s Hot Chicken has officially opened at 37 E Snyder Ave, bringing its signature Nashville-style halal hot chicken into one of Philadelphia’s most iconic neighborhoods. From the moment the doors opened, the energy was real — and the response made one thing clear fast.
This location isn’t just another opening. It’s a perfect fit.
A Grand Opening That Hit Different
On January 31, 2025, Asad’s launched its Snyder Avenue location with a full-scale opening event — including free food from 3 PM to 7 PM.
South Philly showed up. Lines formed early, the block filled with people, and the kind of energy you only get in this part of the city took over. Families, first-timers, and longtime fans all pulled up — and by the end of the night, it was clear this wasn’t just hype.
The neighborhood embraced it immediately.
Eagles Games Just Got Better 🦅
At Snyder Ave, food and Philly culture collide.
During Eagles games, Asad’s runs its Touchdown Meals promotion:
If you’re placing an order at the exact moment the Eagles score, your meal is free.
It’s simple. It’s chaotic. It’s very Philly. And it turns every game into an experience inside the restaurant.
The Menu: Built Around Heat
Everything here starts with halal-certified Nashville-style hot chicken, built around bold flavor and customizable spice.
Choose your level:

What To Order
