One of the best Nashville hot chicken sandwiches I've ever had. Sometimes the line can be long and…read moreparking isn't always easy but this sandwich is worth it. It's a thick piece of chicken with crispy coating and the spice is so flavorful. The medium had me sweating! The place is more for take-out (I ate it in my car) but there is outdoor seating as well that's great for people watching

When we visited LA last year, our son recommended Howlin' Ray's and we really enjoyed the food at…read morethe Pasadena location. This time, we decided to try the Chinatown location since the traffic going toward Pasadena looked terrible. This location is pretty small and doesn't really seem set up for dining in. It feels more takeout-focused, although they do have some tables outside so we sat there. They didn't have the Mild+ spice level that the Pasadena location offers so I ordered two Mild and one Medium chicken tenders. I also got a side of collard greens after seeing several reviews recommending them. I felt like the spice level was higher at this location than at the Pasadena one. Even the Mild was definitely spicier than I remembered! It still had really good flavor, though. I also really enjoyed the collard greens and was glad I decided to try them. I'm not sure if it's just this location or if all of their locations do this now but they also gave us bottled water for free, which was nice. One thing I really liked about the Chinatown location was the parking. There's a huge parking lot across the street so finding a spot was easy. I prefer the Pasadena location for dining in but its parking lot is very small and finding a spot can be difficult. We'll definitely go back to Howlin' Ray's when we visit LA again next spring. We just haven't decided which location we'll choose next time!

Happies is located in Arts District and I came here on a Sunday dinner and didn't have any problems with parking. But, I can see how it might be hard to find if you come during peak hours. The restaurant was pretty empty. First thing I noticed was that there were tons of employees but no one really said anything. Since there was no one ordering, they were all standing around. You can just order at the kiosk but I wanted to ask a few questions but was kind of left to fend for myself. I ended up ordering the chicken tenders and chicken tenders with salad. I thought the restaurant ambience was nice. And after waiting for about 10 minutes, my order came out. They gave me extra sauce but again no explanation on why the extra sauce was provided. As for the food, I thought the chicken was kind of bland. I expected some Sichuan style but hardly any spice on the chicken. Once of the sauces was a Sichuan chili crisp, which gave the chicken more taste. Maybe the chicken was bland because I was supposed to dip it in the sauces? Aside from that, the other sauces were average (ranch and sweet/sour sauce). The salad was definitely a huge miss. They didn't dress the salad properly and only put dressing on top, so I just got a bunch of romaine lettuce at the end. The best part of my meal was the fries, which was crispy and fresh. Also, the fries were pretty generous. I think that the food was just average. Probably will not come back here but glad I came to check out what the hype was about.

First of all shoutout to Mason and Steven for the great hospitality!…read more I've worked in food before so I'm really against dining at a restaurant when it closes within an 45 minutes or so. We were craving fried chicken sandwiches so bad that I made an exception. We pulled up with 20 minutes left to closing and there was a rush and didn't order until about 5 minutes to closing. Then they actually asked if we would like to dine and were so chill about it. It was or first time here and the hot chicken sando and fries were great! Definitely going back here a lot! After the meal which ended 10 minutes after closing they told us they are really big on taking/making everyone's order and allowing ppl to dine in even with a minute left and I appreciate that so much.

There are a lot of different options on the menu, which was a bit overwhelming for my first time, but we decided on getting a half order of their classic boneless chicken in the signature Pelicana sauce, which was a delicious choice. The chicken was perfectly crispy and juicy, and the sauce was a great blend of heat, sweetness, and garlic. Everything was ordered on a tablet that is at each table, and there was one staff member assisting the whole restaurant when I visited on a Sunday afternoon; she was kind, helpful, and provided great service. I also ordered the Peli Shaken Fries which had a nice sweet and savory flavor that complemented the chicken well. The Kimchi Fried Rice was warm, cheesy, but ultimately a little salty for my taste. Overall, the space has a modern and cozy feel, and I can see this being a good spot to grab some drinks and food with friends.

I'm not sure how involved the owner is with the staff, but they should know that the way customers are treated is hurting the business. This wasn't just a one-time bad experience either. I've dealt with rude service here more than once. The last time I went in, I was the only customer there and was told it would be a 55-minute wait for half a chicken. When I questioned the wait, the woman working there said to me in Spanish, "¿Pa' qué viniste pues, si no quieres esperar?" Basically, "Why did you come then if you don't want to wait?" At that point I just walked away in the middle of ordering. There is absolutely no reason to speak to a paying customer that way. It's a shame because the food is good, but the customer service makes you not want to come back.

Perfectly cooked, crispy, and there's this slight sweetness to it that I really enjoyed. We ended up meeting the owner too. Great dude.

But was it still delicious and fried to perfection? Yes. Overall it was a really tasty fried chicken sandwich, the buns held the stack of creamy coleslaw and perfectly crunchy and juicy chicken together well. The bite had great flavour and texture, but it was mostly sweet and creamy. The self advertised slap yo' mama's hot sauce and chili hot honey made me crave some heat that was lacking from the sandwich. Parking was easy and service was great, no reservations needed.

Anyway, ordering was easy-you walk in a can order from a kiosk. At the time, it was only us 2 and one other table with 1 person, not sure if they had a lot of online orders to fill, but our food did take about 10 minutes to get. The food itself was good and there was plenty of it! I was able to save most of my salad for later on. Overall, it's a good healthier option for fast food if you're in need in the area. The only thing that turned me off towards the place is that it was a little dirty in the dining room-the floor needed to be swept, tables were visibly dirty and there was some dust on some of the deco.

5 years later and I have made a second visit lol…read more I did take out. I ordered a kluckin slider and the #1 combo and a kluckin sandwich. I did "Hot" spice level for both. It is spot on, it has a hot punch to it, but not overwhelming. If you like spice while still enjoying the flavor, I recommend the hot option. I wish the chicken was bigger or the bread was smaller it felt disproportionate for sure. The sauce and coleslaw matches very well. Their sauce is also naturally spicy, so beware of that. I had ordered at like midnight on a sunday so it was ready within about 10 minutes. Kudos to them for closing so late on the daily lol. Helping keep us night owls fed !! I wish it was closer to me, but I was happy to come back since I was in the area. Customer service was there, not bad or good It has its own plaza parking lot, thank god cause LA parking is terrible.
