Where It All Started
There’s a spot on Roosevelt Boulevard that stays busy long after the sun goes down. This is where it all started — in 2022, as a simple walk-up counter at a gas station on the Boulevard. The glow, the line, the energy: that was the original Asad’s, and it built the name everything else carries.
Today the brand runs 19 stores across three states, but Roosevelt Blvd is still the heart of it — one of the most recognizable food spots in Northeast Philly, with late-night lines to match. Open till 2 AM on weeknights and 3 AM on Friday and Saturday.
Same recipe as day one: Nashville-style hot chicken fried fresh to order, 100% halal, six spice levels from No Spice to Scorchin’. Dine at the counter, grab pickup, or get delivery.
