The Red Chickz Downtown LA

It is a great place for lunch during the day. I've never been for dinner but I've also only have done takeout. They have a couple seats but not very many. It gets crowded so it's best just to stand and pick up your food and leave. The staff is very helpful and hard-working.

Food was great, but the restaurant is located in a weird area. There were a lot of people barging in and not ordering anything - just annoying. Staff was super friendly.

With the rise of fried chicken spots in L.A, The Red Chickz is worth checking out. They have locations in DTLA, Carlsbad and Culver City, and are opening a restaurant in Cypress Texas. Their signature seasoning is full of smoked spices, and they use a lot of it! You can opt for how spicy you want your chicken to be. I got mild because I can’t handle heat. My husband picked medium and it wasn’t very spicy so they did great on the hot levels. After you eat your fingers will be red from all the spices! The cauliflower is huge. It’s the size of a baseball and my favorite thing on their menu. Dipped in seasoned batter and fried to perfection. We got 2 and it was enough for 2 people. The cheese curds are bomb. I want to get their cup of pickles next time. Nice crunch to their chicken. It wasn’t overly crunchy, and they serve up fat pieces of chicken.
