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.

The lady at the register…read morewas saying how the difference between medium and the next level was big, so I played it safe with medium. She was also so sweet in helping us figure out what to order. We decided to order the chicken tenders, potato wedges, and the cheese curds. Absolutely no complaints. The chicken was SUOER crispy and super juicy. It's also huge, so next time I will be ordering two instead of three. I've also never had actual crispy potato wedges until trying this one as well. Even after finishing all my chicken, everything stayed crispy. The cheese curdles were also good. They're like mini mozzarella balls, nothing too crazy but still super delish. I will be making a return soon because this is so far, my top chicken place!!!

The favor is definitely there and seasoned soo good on both. The service was nice. They have inside and outside seating but inside is better. Outside on spring st there is ALOT of activity going on with people watching and the food robots, service trucks running around. Oh yes and they have a bathroom which is key! It's in downtown LA so parking i can't see where anyone could park here. They have a $2 chicken tenders on thursdays also. They had a lot of take-out orders so people must agree it's good quality food. Overall, yes i would be back and try the sando next time but this place is jamming good!! Go visit these guys and enjoy.

Okay, here's the scoop. For over the last three years, my family and I have been passing by Jim…read moreDandy. Each time we passed by, it seemed like they were closed and or never answered their phone when we called to see if they were open. We kept telling each other one day we're going to stop by and see if they actually are open. So on Friday after exiting the freeway I made my way to Jim Dandy and saw folks going in and coming out. This location is in the middle of the hood. They have bulletproof windows once inside and this location is order and pickup, no dining available. I didn't see the menu until I was done with ordering. Which made it hard for myself. I seen the menu after I ordered. I walked out with 12 pieces of chicken regular not spicy. Corn fritters, macaroni salad, peach cobbler and a banana pudding. Once home we set up our table and began to devour our food. We were blown away with the chicken it is better than most places we have been to not saying any names. The pieces of chicken were huge fresh and crispy. The macaroni salad was just right amount of mayo and seasoning. The peach cobbler was wrapped perfectly not damaging the crust. The banana pudding was a little watery not sure if that was due to the heat going on in the bag as everything was bagged together. I immediately put it in refrigerator so it could get cold and become solid than running. I have no idea what there hours are next time I go in I'll ask or look for signs. There is plenty parking not that folks stay long. Food seems to come out in a timely manner. So parking comes and goes. I cannot wait to try there dirty rice and corn fritters without the powder sugar. I didn't get a photo of them as they got devoured.

The building itself looks pretty run down and dilapidated, but it's kinda a vibe, not gonna lie. There's a bit of parking surrounding the building and only like two other cars. The bullet proof glass is certainly a choice LOL. The menu is behind the glass, and the prices are pretty fair! I got like a four piece with a side. The chicken itself is pretty crispy, but I don't recall it being particularly flavorful. Like it had a decent spice and good crispy outer coating, but the chicken meat itself felt on the tad side of dry and probably could've used more salt or something. Fries were just ok. I really like the fritters!

Tonight, I had dinner at Dino's Chicken and ordered their famous Dino's Chicken & Fries…read more I ordered it to go, but I was so hungry that I ate some at one of the tables inside before taking the rest home and eating a little more at home. I had been craving their chicken for a while, so I finally came back today. As always, there was a long line. At first, the line wasn't moving at all, which was a little frustrating, but fortunately, it started moving much faster soon after. I hadn't been here in years, so it was nice to come back after such a long time. The chicken is definitely tasty, but unfortunately, they grilled it a little too much this time and some of it was quite burnt. I guess that's partly because they grill the chicken directly on the grill. And, too spicy for me : both chicken and fries. Parking here is always a complete challenge because the parking lot is small and there are usually so many people. But my parking luck is always amazing -- cars somehow always seem to pull out right in front of me! And once again, today, a car pulled out right in front of me, so I was able to get a parking spot easily. It felt like another parking miracle! I asked for a cup of water, and he kindly gave me ice water. I also asked if I could have one extra plastic bag, and he gave me another one without any problem. The staff were very friendly, which was good. However, there's one thing to keep in mind when getting takeout here: the chicken is so oily that the grease can actually soak through and leak all over the plastic bag. You basically have to throw the first plastic bag away afterward. That's why I'm really glad I asked for an extra bag and brought one home with me. It definitely came in handy!

We each had the rotisserie chicken bowl and here are the results: Me: I thought it was damn delicious and expertly flavored. Wife: "It's good, but it's too salty." We also had the fries. Nothing special about them, but seasoned well and highly addictive as it turned out. The menu itself seemed pretty good too. There's steak, breakfast choices and a few other things that we'd like to try if we are ever in this neck of the woods again. The service: The woman at the counter was sweet and somewhat attentive. Service with a smile. She was nice. The place itself has a charm to it. It's very clean and there is ample seating inside as well as the outdoor patio, which would benefit from a revamp to the existing artificial flora that adorns the fencing. The restroom is very clean. Eat there. Support a small business. Their food deserves it. Adios amigo.

A couple of years (!!) ago, a housemate of mine brought home some Monty's chicken and waffles-- not…read moresure what flavor or the name of the dish, but it was so much she couldn't finish it. So I offered to. Even "cold" (it wasn't delivered, she brought a portion home in a to-go bag) , with no extra syrup or anything, the waffle was good ...and the fried chicken was REALLY good. I added it to my "want to go" list, thinking I'd get over there and try a fresh meal myself soon. But life happened and here I am, hungry and tired and unable to leave a job site, and when I opened up Yelp to look for a restaurant that delivered, it showed me Monty's (I had already given it five stars, so that's normal Yelp behavior). The 3-piece chicken and waffle arrived pretty much when promised (30min), and it was still nice and hot. Even better than I remembered! Now I really do need to get over there in person to thank the chef. Roscoe's, you've got a small but mighty competitor right here!
