Take out order, everything was done quickly, no notes. The food on the other hand was a disappointment. Our order was Dirty Chicken playe with ratatouille and broccolini. The breast came slightly undercooked, wrapped in uninspiring, unseasoned crust of panko breadcrumbs. The leg was surprisingly drier than Mojave Desert in July (maybe they cooked the leg separately from the breast a week ago idk), but good to see consistency as it was also wrapped in unforgivingly bland panko sand. The charred salsa dip helped, but only barely so. Ratatoille was quite nice and it was so cool to see that as a side option, but broccolini had an odd flavor that didn’t feel neither fresh nor appetizing. Tossed the plate without finising, saddened about the waste.
I was hoping for the brownie to save the night, but that was somehow the worst part—just your good old dry, crumbly, depressing store bought brownie. I swear I cannot imagine anyone calling themselves a chef and working in a demanding location like Los Angeles to then prepare this brownie with their own hands. Any handmade brownie is better than whatever that was. Kids make better brownies on their first try. Drunk barely-functioning adults at 3:37am make better brownies than whatever that was. Whatever I bought from Augie’s was likely lifted at a clearance sale at a $0.99 store going out of business.
Sorry, Augie’s, but never again. Loved Melisse and Citrin, but this is not the child to keep in that family.

I came in with high expectations wanting to love this place. Left with a big disappointment. I Had the roasted chicken. It lacked flavors and chicken tasted gamey! The sides were okay. Had the lemon potatoes and barely tasted the lemon it was more sweet than citrusy.

Ordered their Thanksgiving meal for takeout and was totally impressed with everything. Every bit of it was delicious and made life so easy. Can’t wait to go back and try their regular menu!

Good tasting food, fair price, tasty and healthy. Augie’s combo (half chicken) with the ratatouille and broccoli is great.

Don't be put off by the name! :) the chicken here is pretty amazing. You can't go wrong with the spicy chicken sandwich, the dirty chicken tenders, even the salad is great (add some tenders on top = tasty AND affordable!).

I really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately, it was a big miss. We ordered a chicken sandwich and a chili dog, and both were incredibly underwhelming. The chicken sandwich had a strange texture in the breading, and even with sauce, it was completely flavorless. Honestly, it was probably the worst chicken sandwich I’ve ever had—even basic fast food spots do it better.
The chili dog wasn’t much better. The chili had no seasoning, no beans, and no flavor. Just bland meat on a bun. Super disappointing overall. Not worth the price, and I won’t be coming back.

My family LOVES the food but unfortunately I had to deduct a star because they’ve repeatedly missed at least one item from my delivery orders, so someone doesn’t get to eat their meal. This is very disappointing because the food is great and well prepared, but the quality control on the service is lacking especially considering their prices.
