    Food 3/5 Two tenders and fries is $12.95. Not a bad deal. The tenderness and breading is perfect. Not dry at all, honestly, probably more juicy than Howlin' Rays and Main Chick. What was really disappointing was the flavor. The flavor needs to be much more packing. In comparison to all the other hot chicken places, they really need to step this part up. Also not that big of a fan of their sauces. I didn't have that desire to keep dipping into the sauce. Great flavor on the fries though! Service 5/5 They need to work on properly greeting customers but they are friendly folks. They gave us an extra sauce to try out - good marketing tactic! Ambiance 3/5 Give fast food vibes, nothing too special.

    Grilled Chicken Kabob Wrap + garlic sauce $7.95
    Judy T.

    Was lured in by the chicken kabob wrap. It's got great flavor, decent size for $7.95 and comes with extra garlic sauce. Very moist chicken. We also tried the $5 double smash burger. Good charcoal flavor, on the smaller side which works for me. A bit oily but tasted very good. Liked the bun too. Got the white sauce and spicy sauce on the side, both delicious for dipping. Loved it! Nice service.

    This was my first time at Al's Hot Chicken and I was impressed. First off the staff was extremely helpful and friendly. I wasn't in the mood for their Fried Chicken so I ordered their Double Smash Burger which was good but the standout was the Grilled Chicken Kabob Wrap. The Chicken was tender and juicy. Also the Garlic sauce was amazing! Next time I will try their Hot Chicken. I highly recommend them.

    2 Slider + Fries
    Grace's P.

    I love hot chicken so I wanted to try Al's. I got the mac and cheese and the 2 sliders and fries. Mac and cheese was a very large serving for the price. I wish it had a little more seasoning but was super cheesy. Sliders were good, the chicken was seasoned well and crispy. Fries were average, once again wish there was a little more seasoning. The cashier taking my order was very nice, the food just took a while to come out. I realized on my way out they forgot my mac and cheese and he gave me a coupon for my trouble which was nice! Overall, I liked it and will probably come back.

    Food was AMAZING! I got spicy and it was a perfect amount of spice, flavor! & crispness! Most definitely coming back.

    The smash burger wasn't the greatest but im sure the chicken is much better, it still have yet to try the chicken. The service was good, some and basic. The atmosphere of the place and the food remind me of Daves Hot Chicken but this place feels like they'll care for you better than a large chain like Daves

    New location at Palms Bl. & Sepulveda Bl

    This place is great. If you ever want great hot chicken get it fresh it's on the corner of Sepulveda Blvd., And Palms Boulevard and West Los Angeles. I highly recommend this place. Please come by and check it out.

    Yummy

    Food was amazing so delicious drove from Encino to check This place out and it was most definitely worth the drive the als loaded Mac was fire if anyone is around the area come check this place out

    Loaded fries bowl

    First of all I was happy that Al's had just moved and not gone and still near by. I want to say I was doing an online order on door dash and they didn't have the loaded fries listed there I called the restaurant to ask and they didn't one of the employees suggested he would help with my order which I thought was very thoughtful to go out of his way and do that. I never heard of the app toast which I just ended downloading and put my order there which had the loaded fries listed. I give them 5 stars service is great specially the help and food is good!! My oldest son said better than Dave's lol

    Chicken tenders with a slice of bread

    Got two chicken tenders. Good breading. Oft and juicy. I recommend. This place has a lot of seating inside.

    Two tenders, medium spicy, get out of my way and im not talking while im eating, don't want to mess up the flavor!

    Hi, two questions: 1. Is the halal chicken hand-slaughtered or machine-cut?…

She anticipated the needs of our table. When we informed her we were expecting 1 guest to join us at a later time. She was able to sit my daughter quickly once she arrived and was able to quickly catch her up so my daughter didn't feel uncomfortable waiting for her drink orders. Sammi, was able to keep up with our refills of ice teas and coffee. Food was ok. We order the Spanish omelet to share and Mediterranean omelet. With sides of sausage and toast. The Spanish omelet was ok. The sauce was meh...it lacked the love that was provided from the old Dinah's. I do look forward to them refining their flavors and find their own taste profile. The decor was cute but lacked the charm and warmth of the old location. It seemed cookie cutter and dated...it follows a base format with no originality to set it apart from other restaurants. Would 10/10 go back as long as Sammi is working. Will walk out if she is not there. I stay loyal to good customer service.

This location was the perfect halfway point for all of us. We arrived bright and early around 9:30 AM on a Wednesday. I had called ahead to reserve a booth, my absolute favorite kind of seating. The moment we walked in, we were greeted by a friendly hostess and immediately seated. Our server (I unfortunately forgot his name!) was fantastic. He brought out fresh coffee right away, took our breakfast orders, and was extremely kind, polite, and attentive throughout our entire meal. The menu has plenty of options, ranging from scratch-made omelettes and burritos to salads and a dedicated kids' menu. The Breakfast Plate Specials ($12-$14) Both my cousin and aunts ordered this. It came loaded with pancakes, hashbrowns, sausage, and toast--an absolute steal for the price~ Turkey Club Sandwich & Fries: I was in the mood for lunch, so I opted for the club. The fries were hot and perfectly crispy. The sandwich itself was wonderful, packed with turkey, bacon, cheese, lettuce, and tomato. My only tiny critique is that I wish it came with mayo (I'm a huge mayo fan!). However, I ordered a side of ranch which paired perfectly and really elevated the sandwich. The vibe here is incredibly laid-back, welcoming, and brightly lit. Everything--including the restrooms--was sparkling clean. They had TVs playing a local soccer game and a nice bar area where it looks like they serve up a great selection of beer and wine for happy hour. I didn't grab an alcoholic drink this time, but I already have my eye on a cranberry mimosa for my next visit! Before you leave, make sure to check out the front counter--they have a massive display of freshly baked cookies, pies, and other goodies~ For the price, the food is absolutely worth it and the service is top-notch. Thank you so much, Dinah's Comfort Kitchen--we will definitely be back when we're in the area again!

When I came in, the place was empty, except for the man at the counter who was very welcoming and friendly. The decorations are minimal, giving the vibe of a very low key hole in the wall. I ordered a glass of jamaica and their pipian de pollo, based on recommendations from other reviews. The jamaica came out quickly, and it was lightly floral and not too sweet. Next came out a little basket of tortilla chips with some pico de gallo. The tortilla chips were hot and freshly fried, with a thick and satisfying crunch. The pico was good enough to add a bit of brightness and freshness to the chips. Finally the pepian de pollo came out, a large platter of chicken stew with a drumstick and a thigh, some potatoes, a mound of rice and a heap of mac and cheese. The stew had a nice deep, rich flavor that really evoked that feeling of comfort of food made with love. The chicken and potatoes soaked up the flavor beautifully, and scooping all that with some rice into a fresh, homemade tortilla made for a lovely experience. The mac and cheese was a bit bland, but everything else was wonderful. Overall, had a lovely time with great food and friendly service. If you're looking for a very low key mom and pop shop with food made with love, definitely recommend checking this place out!
