my husband and i decided to try louisiana fried chicken on a whim since we always pass by it and happen to be craving fried chicken; and we were impressed! the fried chicken is incredibly crunchy and super juicy! i'm not sure if they have ab option for a spicy fried chicken but that would be incredible. the sides are a little small, but they are really good! especially love the rice and cole slaw...would pass on the mac salad and hope they would have mashed potatoes in the future! my husband went to pick up the food and said restaurant was just a simple hole in the wall chicken place, nothing fancy (very casual) and that the service was fast and decent. read more

Louisiana Fried Chicken - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Pasadena, California

Louisiana Fried Chicken was recommended by my friend Cindy S. My wife is a fried chicken enthusiast, and we're always on the hunt for the best. While my wife prefers Jollibee, I found the fried chicken here to be seasoned well and cooked perfectly, though it was a bit salty for both of us. The service was excellent; the young lady at the counter was incredibly patient with my indecisiveness. Thankfully, we arrived before the lunch rush. The fries were good and crispy, but the fried shrimp, while okay with cocktail sauce, weren't the best quality and I wouldn't order them again. Overall, I enjoyed the fried chicken more than Jollibee, but my wife felt differently. I would definitely return for their chicken. read more

Yummy fried chicken! I personally love the fried shrimp here-it's good! This place is a hole-in-wall that also serves American-Chinese food made to order. Everybody orders takeout, you should do the same or eat in your car. Cash and credit accepted. Parking is not too bad either in their small private lot or street parking. read more

Strips were good. Mashed potatoes straight out of the box. Banana pudding not great. Rolls were meh. I'd go back for the strips again though as they seem more consistent than Popeyes though I like Popeyes flavor more when they are on point. read more

This place hands-down has the best fried chicken. I can't believe how good and fresh the chicken was. Highly recommend!!! So delicious!!

This is a really a small place good seating just not for a ton of people. Very clean, swept and tables maintained. The food was really good. The lady at the counter had me laughing so hard, great recommendations, will be back for sure. Only was able to try some of the menu. There is a lot of choices. read more

Seems like a mom and pop joint and i really want to love it. But there's a lot of competition around especially at the price point. I'd better order some rice or something if i'm going to be back here, because the salt level really makes it not that easy to eat as is. Thai tea was instantaneous and tastes like so. Love the pecan pie, but i don't think i'd come around again considering the portion size. Service is super fast though. read more

It was just okay. We stumbled upon this place when we were looking for a good friend chicken spot. The reviews were good so we decided to give them a go. I do feel the chicken was not of good quality. It did not feel good after the meal - this could have been the frying and not necessarily the quality. The chicken was good value which we appreciated. Next time I would opt for a nonfried option. read more

Louisiana Fried Chicken - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Pasadena, California

Happy to be back here!! It's been a while and I'm craving for their chicken so bad. Small shop with great flavors. So many choices on the menu, make sure to make up your mind before arrival. I was only planning to order the chicken only with shrimp but probably there's a misunderstanding so I ended up getting a chicken combo meal plus the shrimp. That's okay, the food is amazing. Quick and friendly service. The wait wasn't too long. Happily got my food, I was trying to shooting some videos from the front, and there was a crazy lady ran to me and shout at me and cursing and asking me to stop taking pictures of her. LMAO. Advice for the owner: Don't let psych people scare your customers away!!! read more

Louisiana Fried Chicken - Shrimp, 4 pc chicken, coleslaw - Cajun/Creole Near Me - Pasadena, California

Ooopo weeee! My daughter had a craving for fried chicken--not any fried chicken but Louisiana Fried Chicken. She knew exactly what she wanted: The Louisiana Combo, which included one piece of chicken, one piece of fried fish, eight fried shrimp, a fluffy dinner roll all atop a mound of crispy golden fries. It also included a drink for 13.89. The cashier was patient as I changed my mind to order gumbo. Our food came within 6 minutes. Everything was piping hot and fresh. I didn't even take a photo before we devoured the combo. This is definitely a contender for best fried fish ever!!!! My gumbo was amazing with BIG BIG tempura shrimp floating on the top. All was clean, simple and delicious! Don't slap yo mama though! Just enjoy the flavors! 5 stars and 2 thumbs way up!!! read more

Never had a bad order. Consistently properly cooked. Always hot.. Quantity perfect. Delivery perfect. Been eating them for years; never underdone; never overdone. Always freshly cooked / order. Would recommend Louisiana Fried Chicken to everyone. read more

There's a lot going on in here. I didn't have the time to read all the menu options posted so I stayed basic and just ordered their fried chicken and fries since it's in their name it's gotta be good, right? And it was! chicken was crispy, fresh and juicy. fries could've been crispier but they weren't bad. Service was quick and friendly enough. Prices were great. I'd definitely return and try their other dishes. read more

This is our favorite fried chicken place. Fast, fresh and tasty chicken at the best price in town. No hype, just good chicken. It's a hole in the wall with a small parking lot. Service is friendly enough but very no nonsense. The leg and thigh deals are definitely recession busters. Highly recommend. read more

Gumbo alone is 5 stars. Best I've had outside New Orleans. Not much to say about service because they take your order through a window then make and give you your food. Pretty straight forward. They don't skimp on ingredients in gumbo. Get the gumbo. Thank me later. read more

I'd forgotten to order fried chicken for a party I was hosting. In a panic, I went to the restaurant two hours before the event. The woman who took my order was so nice. I asked if I could pick up 40 pieces of chicken in an hour and a half and she said it would be no problem. The chicken was ready as promised. Everyone loved the chicken. It was crispy and delicious. Next time fried chicken is on the menu, I'll order it from here. FYI their catfish nuggets are also terrific. read more

I have never been to Louisiana but I believe the flavor of this chicken has not really changed since I was about 10-12 years old. I do recall they had several locations that did not sell donuts and such, but I believe it is one of the better chicken places around. Beats the larger chains. I wish there were more locations. read more

It was my favorite but last time the chicken was pale yellow, not crispy, threw it out. Gross.

Chicken tastes like fish.... No seasoning just fried chicken that tastes like fish. Glad I got ginger ale to wash it down. The ginger ale was much needed. read more

Wow! I had another location like 15 years ago and wasn't impressed. This location though has really solid fried chicken, jumbo shrimp, and catfish! Fries are alright but it's nicely seasoned. I got#22 but I asked for 1 fish be swapped with a chicken thigh because I wanted to try everything and they kindly obliged. I'm never in the area but if I am this is now an option. I ate a bit more than half and I'm stuffed! So could potentially split this. read more

Fresh, well seasoned fried chicken! I always get wings, breasts, and shrimp - delicious! Also really enjoy their jumbo shrimp egg rolls, gumbo, and coleslaw. Service is always friendly and attentive. Tables are simple but comfortable for a quick dine-in. Pro-tip: Give them a call ahead of time to avoid a wait. read more

Delicious...I have to stop here every time I'm in Pasadena...always fresh, hot and made to order.

If you want what feels like a home-cooked plate of fried chicken, come to this location! Best Louisiana Fried Chicken in all of Los Angeles. The food is made with tender love and care! read more

The chicken here is always fresh and hot. Flavorful and crispy. The service is good and they have good deals all through the week. Variety of specials from seafood to chicken. The place is outdated and needs new everything. No indoor or outdoor seating. Ample parking on the street or parking lot. read more

Best chicken strips ! Wow ! From how fresh and tender the meat was, to the excellent breading. So good I forgot to use ranch, promise read more

Excellent fried chicken, at a very reasonable price. It's my new fried chicken takeout place ever since the local Church's Chicken was torn down for a real estate development. Cannot attest to anything else but the chicken, as have not ordered sides. I grew up in the Kentucky Fried Chicken era when all you bought at a chicken joint, was large quantities of fried chicken, either in a box or bucket. And you fed a crowd. This place reminds me of those fun times. read more

Wow. Fired catfish like my grandpa used to make after we went and caught the fish.. light crunchy outer layer with fresh moist and flaky fish inside. More of a to go location but has a few tables inside. Usually busy and very good. read more

Great fried chicken and shrimp! Always hot and fresh. I'm not a fan of the fried fish and their sides, except for the fries which are great. They once served sweet rolls on the side, but no longer... the rolls they serve are now savory - I'm not a fan of these. Bring back the sweet rolls and add fried okra and hush puppies to the menu please! Service is always friendly and fast. The place is tiny and okay looking but could use some sprucing up. read more

Crispiest, juiciest chicken. I always get a tray for office parties and am literally the most popular person at work!

We usually take a drive out on Sunday somewhere...usually it's a scenic drive to Malibu and the ocean. Today, we just weren't feeling that long of a drive so we chose Pasadena. While out, I knew we had to eat something...the other place I wanted would have required finding parking, walking to the spot then having to wait. La Fried Chicken had the easiest access. I've been to a few locations in Long Beach which were good so I figured this would would be the same....and it was. Good. We ordered the fried catfish and shrimp. Both hit the spot. It's great knowing that we don't have to drive down to LBC to get fish and shrimp similar to what I would get in my home state of La. read more

Was in the mood for a fried chicken place that wasn't too far out but wasn't the usual fare of Popeye's, Roscoe's, KFC. After searching for much longer than I wanted to, I found something that was literally right around the corner - Louisana Fried Chicken. Now, this place is really a 'drive past it and you'll miss it' type of joint. It's not obvious that it's there and it's kinda hole-in-the-wall, divey-type. It's not a place one would go out of their way for and that's what I love about it - unless you really know your fried chicken or you're a local, this is the place for you. Walking in, it's not a home feeling. You don't feel like you're in Grandma's kitchen or home. Honestly, you don't feel any type of way other than, 'I should probably leave here pretty soon.' But, you're not there for the atmosphere, are you? You're there because you want some juicy, crispy fried chicken. Service is great - very polite staff and they are so quick. They don't mess around. They want your money and you want your chicken so it's a win-win for everyone. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. I got the Value Pack, which surprisingly, wasn't on the online menu. It's one of those things you have to know they have it or you have to go to the store to order it. For three of us, it was plenty of chicken - 8 pieces, 2 sides, and rolls. Drinks were optional and for additional coin. Now, the rolls don't look like they would be too much of anything - they look store-bought and not that exciting. But hunty....pair it with the fried chicken and the red beans and rice? You'll want to slap yo momma...it is that damn good. The hubby was an instant fan and the kid loved it as well. I highly recommend this joint! read more

Great food and very fast! My favorite thing to order is the wing special and the jumbo shrimp.

This was an interesting experience. It's an Asian owned chicken place. I ordered the 16 piece meal. I looked at the photo and it was 32$ but actually was 49.50$ on arrival. I should have asked. The food was clean and great. The breast was a bit dry but the skin was crunchy. The spices on the skin was not bold but good. I saw a lot of people order the cat fish and they are busy so it's definitely a place that has fresh oil and is well visited. I was Approached twice for money outside the place so beware. It was a benign event however. Worth a try and I will be back for the fried catfish. read more

The food is amazing!! I got a little bit of everything to try - fish tender, chicken, shrimp and gumbo. The chicken is nicely seasoned and moist. The shrimp is massive, and so yummy. The gumbo hit the spot, the flavor was great and chunky, with massive shrimp. Definitely need to check out! read more

It was good, but it was not great. The cheese sticks were most enjoyable. Very friendly staff, better than most fried chicken fast food places. read more

Fantastic chicken. Good fries too. The portions are large and the service was super fast at lunch time. I devoured my food before taking a picture but I did managed to get a picture of the menu. Got the 3 piece special. Chicken was nicely seasoned and only mildly spicy (like black pepper; not chili) and juicy. The fries were actually seasoned and fried perfectly. My only complaint is getting there at lunchtime was rough as traffic was busy on Lake, but that's not their fault. Also, don't expect high-end facilities. I wasn't going for the decor or ambiance so didn't bother me at all. read more

Was on my way to breakfast and saw this restaurant driving up Lake Ave. Stopped by before heading back home. Fried chicken was good. I was hoping that when I bit into the chicken, it would be crispy but not really. Potato salad, French fries, were okay. Food was good for my first time. read more

I was craving some fried chicken and coleslaw and had been meaning to stop by this place on Lake. There was no wait but there was clearly steady busy because the parking lot was full and people were just leaving from getting takeout. Even my order of 3 pieces, coleslaw and rice came in mere seconds. I kid you not. Fried chicken had a good flavor and was not greasy. The coleslaw tasted fresh and crispy and cold. The rice has a flavor I can't really place so I can pass on that next time. I'd say this is a worthy replacement for KFC. read more
