PHILADELPHIA, PA — Hen Solo, a unique Star Wars-themed chicken eatery, is making waves in Manayunk with its bold flavors and creative menu. Situated at 4351 Main Street, the takeout restaurant has gained popularity for its playful spin on fried chicken dishes, inspired by global street food and a galaxy far, far away.
The brainchild of Chef Dean Leevongcharoen, Hen Solo infuses his international culinary expertise into every dish. The menu features flavors from Thai, Japanese, Korean, Mexican, Italian, and American cuisines. Standout items include the Nashville-style “Flavor Awakens” chicken sandwich and the Italian-inspired “Vodka Pesto Rebel.”
Dessert isn’t on the menu, but imaginative items like “The C-3Pineapple,” blending grilled pineapple and smoky chipotle mayo, showcase the eatery’s inventive approach. Vegetarian options are also available, with eggplant as a substitute in certain dishes.
Chef Dean, who gained experience in his family’s Thai restaurant and trained under renowned Japanese ramen chefs, launched Hen Solo during the pandemic after reimagining his career path. “Star Wars is about adventure and unexpected heroes,” said Leevongcharoen. “That’s exactly what I want our dishes to represent.”
Hen Solo’s hours are Wednesday through Sunday, with early closings at 9 PM on weekdays and 10 PM on weekends. The chef promises to keep evolving the menu with fresh specials and globally inspired flavors.
