“This place felt like home. As on out-of-towner the long line went quick by talking to people about how great this place is. They warned me on the Howlin’ heat level but I had to try it. I went to order and Justin was great vibes! He talked me down from two Howlin’ wings to just one. Good looks my friend. I went with a Country Sando. Medium wing. Howlin’ wing.The guy that gave me my order handed me some gloves for the Howlin’!!Medium wing was solid, could definitely eat a whole meal of that.Sando makes me cry just thinking about it. I don’t normally go for slaw, but I didn’t want to rob the sandwich of how the chef created it. Man I’m glad I was right, that thing was perfect.Howlin’ was great dry rub, made me cry and sweat pretty good. Slow burn that kept climbing and wouldn’t let up haha! Couldn’t finish, my body was telling me NO MORE! Still hitting me in the stomach tbh. It hurt so good! Great time.The staff checked in on everyone and I was able to meet a lot of workers, very happy to interact with them like that.Only downfall was the Sweet Peach Tea. It was more of a juice and couldn’t finish it because of the taste.Other than that, this place should be on everyone’s list if you’re from out of town. Gotta give it a try!“
“The fried chicken is the best I’ve ever had and it’s not even close. The mild chicken is really spicy but just the right amount for me, not overly intense. It’s nice and crunchy. It’s even great cold. The fries are bomb too.What I also like is that it’s exactly the same quality every time, there is no variance. Wish I had found this place years ago.“
“This "Angels Bowl" (essentially a deconstructed hot chicken sandwich with bread swapped for crinkle fries) was everything I had hoped it would be. As a transplant who regularly grumbles at the cost-to-quality/portion size ratio of Hollywood restaurants, I feel this was good value. 2nd highest spice level was enough to get this Midwest-Polish boy sweating, but happy-sweating. Friendly staff. I'll be back.“
“Heng Heng Chicken Rice is a hidden gem known for its exquisite Hainanese Chicken and fragrant Garlic Rice. The tender, succulent chicken paired with aromatic garlic-infused rice creates a harmonious blend of flavors that delights the palate. With a friendly staff and a cozy ambiance, this restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking a taste of authentic Hainanese cuisine.“
“Klunkin Chicken isn't just about the delicious food - it's also about the warm hospitality. From the moment you walk in, the friendly employees make you feel right at home. Combined with their juicy, flavorful chicken and signature sauces, Klunkin Chicken offers a dining experience that's as memorable as it is delicious.“
“Love this eatery! Great food, amazing service and love the laid back atmosphere.Parking: A bit difficult to park along the main streets and don’t really know the residential area parking restrictions. We tend to come here on Sundays to avoid have parking issues ?Kid-friendliness: Great menu selection for the kids and includes a beverage“
“Trying a new spot is hard, but they made it pretty easy. I got super friendly and helpful service from Wendy when I came in on a Tuesday. She made sure to mention the taco special and saved me a few bucks. Very chill atmosphere and seeks to not get too busy.“
“If you want to see what real hot chicken should taste like then you should stop by and try this place out. The brine is done so perfectly that the chicken just falls apart. The seasonings they use taste amazing. I never get tired of this place from the chicken to the fries to the sauce everything is amazing! The service is always top notch and the inside is actually clean and tidy so you can sit down and enjoy your food!“
“So this wasnt my first time trying Peruvian food, and my girlfriend and I were super excited that we got recommended this place as a “must try”. Once we got there we got greeted and welcomed from the staff and everyone seemed happy to be there.Food wise: the food was AMAZING. I HIGHLY recommend the food. The ceviche was crazy, the QUALITY was definitely noticeable and they stuffed it with shrimp.The pollo was really juicy and super flavorful. Just imaging your momma or poppa making this type quality.The sauces… sheesh. I was mind blown to learn that they are all literally hand made every morning by the owners. You dont find that anywhere else.The salad and dressing was so good. Super fresh.And last but not least. The Lomo Saltado.This deserves a whole review on its own. This mixed with the green sauce is top foods in Pasadena easily. Highly highly recommend it. But, for the absolute best trio, get the ceviche, pollo, and lomo all together.The drinks were really good as well and super fresh. Coming to this restaurant will definitely be that one choice you make that you will be glad you did. The owners are awesome and super caring as well. Lovely addition to Pasadena.Pa. Look at how fresh and perfect that avocado is ??♂️“
“I like the food here, but the attitude of the main guy behind the counter? I don’t understand- Bruh…you are running a restaurant, and while food is important there is a reason why every food review platform in the universe has a rating category entitled service. If you can’t be the least bit courteous than take park your grumpy self in the back where customers don’t have to worry about offending you by placing an order and providing you with their credit card.“
“This is a spectacular restaurant. Stopped to check it out. I tried to figure out what I wanted online so I could call it in. I failed I had to walk in cause everything on the menu looks amazing. I had the BBQ chicken salad and that is a 11 out of 10. Wow just wow mind blowing good :)“

“I'm obbsessed with the Jesse Bowl. I eat here at least twice a month. My favorite post-airport meal ever! So comforting and it tastes like being home in LA ♡ the cauliflower is some of the best cauli ive ever had too. Friess and agua frescas fire as well. You cant miss at Jesse Boy. Please stay open forever ?Parking: Strip mall parking but never too busy and not hard to navigate in“
“This place is pretty good as far as hot chicken goes. It's not the best but it's decent, I've ordered from here plenty of times. But Rays is still at the top. They don't really have much of a space for sitting in and dining. So if you want to eat you need to go down one of the nearby alleyways and sit at the tables there.“
“A quick and healthy lunch option that’s super casual with friendly staff. I stopped by on my lunch break and was walking back to work with my takeout order within ten minutes. There was plenty of outdoor seating available for a Friday around 12:30. The prices can add up if you are the type of person like me who wants to try everything but I was pleasantly surprised by the freshness and overall quality. I will definitely be ordering from here again.Vegetarian options: Clearly labeled vegetarian optionsDietary restrictions: All clearly labeledParking: Hollywood Blvd can be hit or miss with open spaces - meters and free spots exist on side streets but it’s a busy areaWheelchair accessibility: Fully wheelchair accessible but the ordering and pickup window could be lower“
“Such a great experience here! Place is exceptionally clean and the service is quick. It was my first time at Dave's and Jessie the cashier answered all of my questions. The chicken was tender and crispy, just the way it's supposed to be. I'll be back the next time i'm in Burbank!“
“I'm glad this tasty, family-run restaurant is in my Los Feliz neighborhood. Happy that they've expanded their menu because the Persian Armenian food is delicious. Never had a bad meal, and never had anything but friendly service. Solid, un-pretentious, and relaxed. I dig it.“
“I did not really eat Korean food during my 2 weeks in Japan, so I was craving Korean food. I've known of the bb.q Chicken chain for a while now, and I saw they had a branch in Alhambra. I cannot eat a ton of fried chicken on my own, but I saw that this restaurant had other dishes as well. I decided to come here and give bb.q Chicken a try.They had a free soda with Yelp check in. My wife got a diet coke, and I ordered water. The restaurant gives complimentary pickled radishes. The staff are very nice and friendly.My wife ordered the tteokbokki, whereas I got the kimchi fried rice. I was torn between the fried rice and the bulgogi poutine, but I also knew I wanted rice, so I got the kimchi fried rice. My wife and I shared our dishes. The tteokbokki was good, sweet and spicy. The rice cakes were a nice texture. The kimchi fried rice was also solid, but a bit spicy for me.Given how close it is to me, I will definitely come back in the future to try their fried chicken.“
“Ariana and Sarkis were so helpful and accommodating. The food was prepared very quickly . We ordered the cauliflower bites with medium spice, chicken tenders with mild spice, and the two slider combo. If you are a vegan and love hot ? "chicken" the cauliflower is ? ? amazing, too!“
“Great place for a fried chicken sandwich. I always take it to go, but there is outside (covered) seating if you want to eat there. Their menu is posted on the main window, which is really convenient, but I would REALLY like to be able to see the cashier - they have to stoop to see out, making it awkward for both of us.“
“Flavor. It’s one of those places you go for an easy delicious meal. No bathroom, no amenities; only incredibly authentic Nashville chicken. Humble family owned business. Their daughter has been there with them since she was 2. They came from Armenia to America to follow the dream. Seems they have accomplished it. With another store, actually brick and mortar restaurant and a third undisclosed location coming to LA plus both restaurants have 5 stars. Come on. The best.Kid-friendliness: Kids love chicken tenders.“
“One of the best fried hot chickens I've had! The chicken was so juicy and full of flavor! The fried Oreos are to die for! The grilled cheese was also a HIT!! I've ordered from them a few times and every time has been better than the last!“
“Comparing this one to the one on Pico/Crenshaw, parking is much much easier and closer to the freeway. The chicken indeed seemed a ted less spicy hot but all the favors are there. (Went to Crenshaw 2 days later and clearly able to compare) As usual, ordered the biggest 20 piece dinning in and it was hot and juicy, especially the breast. Busy on the chicken left the fries cold but still nothing left to take home. The chicken was fresh from the frier as one was bubbling on the table. Teared up one of the breast and juice immediately drip onto the plate. I wore eating clothes every time I go to GUS to refrain from having ruined clothes to regret later. They gave me forks every time but I had never used them. Go wash hands and get dirty!“
“This is one of those hole in the wall places you hear about that’s actually got seating. Food is really top quality and the portions are extraordinarily generous. People working here are so friendly and personable. If you’re looking for some great takeout or a place to grab a good bite of food before whatever dragged you out to Hollywood I’d highly recommend this spot.“
“If you’re looking for one of the best chicken eateries in LA, look no further. Rockbird offers chicken that once you’ve tried, it won’t be enough even though it’s massive. The chicken is moist and juicy. The flavor is savoring. Start with the chicken tenders and work your way through the menu.You wont be disappointed“
“Chicken is delicious, and the sides are very good portion. The parking, however, is a nightmare.Also, the place needs renovating. The inside seating area area looks run down and old.However their food is very good and for that reason this place is a must visit.“
“Oh my God, you guys! It's like Aziz Ansari once said, 'Treat yo' self!' And that's exactly what I do at 818 - the late-night savior of my hunger pangs! Picture this: it's 10 PM in Glendale, and everything else is snoozing, but not 818, oh no! They're like the Batman of restaurants, always there when you need them. Their chicken? It's like a high-five in your mouth! Crispy, juicy, and totally kosher – it's like they're frying up happiness. And the staff? Superheroes in aprons, I tell you! They guide you through the menu like a tasty treasure map, helping you discover culinary gold. Hungry for a pressed chicken sandwich with a twist? They've got you covered. Craving their signature chicken sandwich with that crunchy coleslaw and tangy pickles? Boom, your taste buds are in for a party! This place isn't just a restaurant, it's my culinary soulmate. Always open, always awesome. So, go on, treat yo' self and check them out!“
“You guys are awsome. Stela and the cashier were awesome tonight.We came in almost at close and they were super nice and even cooked fresh food for us. We came from far and barely made it but they made our dinner and night perfect. You need more like your crew you had tonight. Starting from management all the way to your cook. Had the best smile and ready to make the food even if it was time for them to almost go home.“
“Dinah's is the quintessential classic fried chicken spot! Located on the east side of Los Angles—this place is a hidden gem tucked amidst the swank Galleria shopping district in the foothill enclave of Glendale, California just beneath the Vergudo Mountains. The ambiance is a perfect blend of folksy and traditional with carved wooden furniture and ornamental decór laid about in a fashion not dissimilar to what one might expect to see in an old guard Dixieland dining room of a grand home in the southern United States. The seats, tables, and flatware were all exceptionally clean and the restroom areas were also noticeably well-kept. Service was top-notch with polite and pleasant staff readily available at every turn. Food was served within minutes of placing our orders and came out piping hot with generous portions and no room for regrets. We ordered the Chicken Dinners, which come with three pieces of perfectly crispy golden fried chicken along with two sides and a dinner roll. My order included mashed potatoes and gravy, macaroni and cheese, and an extra chicken drumstick for $1 as part of the Friday Special. The potatoes were rich and smooth. The mac was creamy, oozing with cheese, and it had a perfect bite to the pasta. And the dinner rolls were as to be expected. I could not have been happier, as this place satisfied my every craving for southern comfort food without all of the off-putting qualities of a standard, fast-food chicken spot. If you're in the mood for a good fried chicken dinner the way it should be done, at a reasonable price, Dinah's is the way to go. Five Stars across the board.“
“As someone from Osaka, I can confirm this is a Japanese restaurant with home style dishes and legit kushikatsu (of which is a bit lighter due to less batter and more panko crusted instead). We went on Valentine's Day for a special meal and it was packed. Service may be a bit more relaxed than one may be used to, so please be patient and enjoy the thoughtful hospitality and cuisine. Their unagi yanagawa (simmered eel with strips of burdock root covered in egg) was very comforting and tasty. Thank you for the delightful and memorable meal.“
“Came here on a recommendation from a friend. Bought a couple pounds of chicken luleh meat. Cooked it up tonight to try. It was the BEST I have found! Moist, flavorful and had very little grease.Very nice guy at the counter. Definitely five stars!“
“Finally!! This location knows how to make a slider! My son is obsessed with Dave’s so we have visited many locations, even AZ and MI locations. Glendale knows that a slider should have coleslaw, some other locations have put such a small amount it’s like 5 pieces of slaw. Thanks for a great slider.“
“The owner was amazing , great atmosphere love the music he was playing , The cook looks happy made the food very good there fries are delicious ? every bite the sandwich is Soo exquisite ?? I highly recommend this place and this has been approved by me Deysi Henriquez ..“
“Seriously the greatest roast chicken I've ever had in my life. I usually am pretty squeamish in regards to eating around the bones, cartilage, etc, but this chicken (and the 32 spices seasoning) had me going to town. Absolutely addicting. As for the service, it is run by a lovely couple with a no nonsense attitude. When asking for recommendations, the man simple replied "they're all good," and after eating the #2 I wouldn't be surprised. Give it a shot, and see for yourself!“
“If you like the style of cooking then this spot is for you. Pricey but big sized pieces. Cooked after ordering so there is a little wait. Good variety of flavors that I wish I could try more of but alas, the style of cooking/ food is not for me“

“First time trying bb.q and will order again. I ordered the original boneless and was impressed with the flavor, crispiness and tenderness of the K fried chicken. It seemed a bit expensive at first (8 pieces for $19.19) but there were more than 8 pieces and I should have shared with my wife.“
“Great service, great food. The server who got my online order was so kind and nice, told me every detail while calling. I think her name is Janice L. I want to appreciate her professional manner and kindness.Parking: Finding a free parking space right in front of the restaurant is very hard, especially during dinner time.“
“There's a self order kiosk, or you can talk to the worker to order. The chicken sandwich is flavorful, meat is juicy, and such a massive portion. Prices were not crazy either and pretty inexpensive. Fries were a little oversalted and not evenly seasoned but not bad.Parking: There is a decently big row of parking spots behind the building, but it can get busy as the day goes on.“
“I've been coming here for years, and I highly recommend making the trip to Dave's Hot Chicken. The food is always delicious and the staff is very welcoming at this location! My go-to meal is the slider and tender combo with the extra hot chicken. If I'm feeling adventurous, I'll get the reaper flavor. Be warned, the reaper is no joke!“
“This was some gooood chicken. I was excited to try Cluck and Blaze in Glendale after driving past it months ago and finally found a reason to go. The side chick sandwich was delicious, the combination of the slaw and pickles plus the comeback sauce was so tasty. I got mine in "You Can Do Better" spicy level and that was all I could handle. The fries were good but the tots were THE BOMB. I recommend getting an extra side of comeback sauce, it costs extra but it's worth it!Clean restaurant and friendly staff, I will definitely be back to try those clucking fries and one of those desserts! (And who am I kidding, maybe get more Mac and cheese)...“
“The food here is great. They moved recently and I was hesitant to drive the extra distance but it's totally worth it. I think the food is even better at this new spot. Their sauce is amazing, I'd probably buy it in bulk if they sold it.“
