“Im gonna give a bit of a detailed review. Because with a few tweaks this place could be 1000x better.
I had fried chicken/smother chicken/greens/yams/mac n cheese /rice and gravy

Every thing was very good. My following critiques are me being extremely critical. Overall this is a very good place to order soul food from. Im a repeat customer for sure.

The overall flavor of everything is really good. The only issue I had was with the salt levels and textures. BUT ESPECIALLY THE AMOUNT OF SALT ON THE FRIED CHICKEN. I would have enjoyed it alot more if the Salt levels came down about 15-20%. Mac and cheese was good flavor wise, just a bit too rich and gummy and salty. Could be just me though I not the biggest fan of Mac and cheese thats done with a roux first and then baked also. It produces a very dense rich texture. Also I think the chicken pieces are too big. I got a breast and wing and the breast was half the size of the entire container. Usually chickens that big are overly fed, and given hormones and injected with other drugs. Also pieces that big take longer to fry, which makes the batter fry harder and darker. If I were this resturant I would honestly invest in smaller organic 3-4lb chickens.

Other than that I really enjoyed the flavor, especially the yams and greens and gravy.“

“As for Fried Chicken goes, Honey Kettle is one of the better ones in Southern California. The simplicity of the goods is what makes this staple good. There isn't many frills, but good fresh chicken cooked with some care.

There have been some small issues with service from time to time, but overall I would maintain their high rating because of the delicious chicken they serve.

There are some hit and misses with their sides, but certainly do get their beans.

Portions are not big, but there is nothing wrong with over-ordering something that could be finished later.“

“The food was absolutely amazing. The service and ambience was great.“

“The food is so delicious we ordered the island spaghetti,fried chicken w/rice and fried plantain everything was super fresh and flavorful! And be sure to pick up the passion fruit juice it’s so refreshing! I will be going back for more 😋“

“Drunken chicken by lemon fish is a great sushi restaurant located in Hollywood. What makes them special is that they also have additional Pocha items like these McDonald’s like fries so you know they’re great for weekend dinners. My favorite roll is their citrus salmon. It comes with shrimp tempura, salmon on top and a sliced lemon for freshness. Come out for great food and super fun vibes and If you’re not into sushi then you have to try their fried chicken. Their soy garlic is so full of flavor and the chicken is juicy, meaty, and crispy.“
