    Chicken Sandwich
    Vee P.

    I've stopped in a few times and really enjoy their chicken sandwich and their fried shrimp. The cook is perfect every time. Staff are friendly and personable, and the restaurant is usually clean. Easy street parking right out front.

    I've been coming here for about 2.5 years now on occasion when I'm near LAX and it is absolutely one of my favorites quick & fair priced food spots in LA. It's in a little plaza with shared parking so you just have to find some parking in the back. They have a great range of options on the menu and the price is absolutely fair for the amount of food you get + the current market. This restaurant is also halal! Huge plus. I always get the shrimp and chicken combo which NEVER disappoints. The food is ready is about 15 minutes and if you call ahead of time they can have it ready by the time you show up which is great. Majority of the frying and cooking happens behind the register so you see everything, they are very clean and I've see the employees switching gloves multiple times as they move around. The decor inside is awesome with blues and a nice ocean-line scenery. I highly recommend this place too all my friends and anyone who wants to grab a great bite for a good price!!!

    I was in LA and was looking for a place to eat lunch. I found this place by just driving around the city. When I entered the restaurant I was greeted by staff. The staff were friendly and very helpful. I ordered a 3 piece regular, fries and 5 piece kickin chicken. The chicken was delicious and very flavorful. The fries were cooked to perfection. The menu had some great choices and has specials running all week. Prices were reasonable. Great place to get good food.

    Delicious chicken wings. The staff was very friendly and helpful . They suggested chicken wings and fries, since it was my 1st visit here. I will be back, the wings were cooked to perfection. There's indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is in back of the building.

    My photo does not do enough justice. The meat slides right off the bone. Food was hot and cooked to perfection. I had to eaten, five wings before I took the picture. I came in for wing Wednesday, which is $129 per full wing. There was probably only two skimpy wings out of the bunch. The rest were delicious. They have a really good drink selection with different sodas and lemonades. They have plenty of sauces to choose from like sweet red chili barbecue ranch, garlic, buffalo hot sauce and more. Aside from wings there is chicken sandwiches, fried fish, and plenty sides to choose from. There's plenty of seating inside and outback. Inside is very clean and modern and they have two TVs to watch on. They do have customer restrooms. There's little parking in front but more parking in the back. Come give it a try they won't disappoint.

    Nice place very inviting! Good service they were out of fried okra:(...Maybe next time!

    Pretty darn great!! The seasoning they dust on top of the chicken and sides is so tasty! What is it! My 1st time here. Everything is made fresh to order and seems like the okra is fresh too based on how the texture and looks of it. Don't think it is frozen but if it is, it felt fresh. The chicken is super juice and meat is bouncy! Really delicious!! Juices flying while you tear or bite into it. Yum!! Can't wait to come back and try other items!! They take mobile pay too!

    I loved this place from the first time my friend shared her left overs with me and I had the french fries and chicken. When I walked in, I was greated by a lovely women named Stacy. She had a very warm and kind personality. She asked me what I would like and I told her its my first time and she let me know what was good. I said I'll have the chicken and french fries. The french fries were seasoned so well and they make them slightly crispy on the outside and soft in the middle, just like I like them. The chicken is so yummy . I happened to have an appointment next to them and went inside and saw the same women sitting next to me and we started a conversation and I shared with her that I was facing homelessness. I told her how much I loved their food. She walks over to me and says I'm gonna pray for you. Of course I started to cry. What a kind women she is. Its rare to meet people who will take the time to pray for you. I told her I havent tried any of the fish yet, but I will next time and she asked which fish I like ? I said all but catfish would be my choice and ahe said, I'm gonna make you one to go. I can't tell you how much I appreciate her and this place. I was telling other people to go here too! The staff is kind and the food is so delicious . Don't forget to tip! Let's blow this place up and buy some delicious food and always tell them to have a great day and spread the love. Love you Stacy!! Thank you and may God bless you and Kickin' chicken

    I was in the area and this spot's reviews and pics looked good. So, I decided to give it a try. Honestly, I had doubts walking in (one of the selections on the soda machine wasn't working) However, the staff was friendly, and so I placed my order for wings and shrimp. The flavor was actually quite good. Interesting, tasty selection of seasonings. I will repeat.

    Service was good. Food was decent. Portion was decent. Pricing was reasonable. Drink selection was unique and good. Chicken wings were fairly small. Place was clean. I would have to go back again and give it another try to get a full assessment.

    Heard about this place and wanted to try it out. We eat seafood on occasion so we decided to stop by when we were close to the airport. So here's the rundown: Parking: on street or parking lot in the back Service: Good customer service! We were greeted as we entered and the menu was explained to us. Can order via kiosk, call-in, or at register Wait time: 15 mins wait for food so not too bad Food: Everything is item only but can make items into combos; looks like they specials on certain days; shrimp was well seasoned but sadly the red snapper was a bit dry and not seasoned as well. Bummer! Overall: Restaurant was very clean, employees were helpful but the fish left a lot to be desired. Also it was disappointing to pay $4.99 for fries to get maybe just a small handful. I could've gotten more for that price at Five Guys or Chick fil a. Very stingy so that's why I deducted a star. Glad we tried it but sadly I can only give 3.5 stars. Maybe we will try a different fish to see if that makes a difference but certainly will not order fries!

    #1 - Chicken & Shrimp Combo
    Luanne S.

    Kickin' it at Kickin' for some special deals! If yall like a good deal like me, this is the place for you! How bout, Two piece leg and thigh for $1.99 Tuesdays?! 99 cent Wholeeee wing Wednesdays?! 79 cent jumbo shrimp Saturdays?! and the daily deals go on! These alone got me wanting to come back. The fried chicken and the shrimp is where it's at here. Freshly fried, crunchy yet super juicy and the seasoning on it hits perfectly. I went with the combo plates which come with coleslaw, fries and a drink. Their fries are decent, choose your sauces wisely as it makes the whole experience! Steer clear of ranch it's packaged ranch... a sad day for ranch lovers. But the kickin garlic is fire, honey mustard, and the sweet chili are a good combo. Also, the coleslaw is a pass, there was just something off putting here, little bitter. The fried okra and zucchini sticks are pretty good, nice change from just fries. Overall, the location is chill, they have indoor and outdoor dining option, with parking in the back, the service was cool, and the food is tasty! I really like the deal options, a steal. I give it 3 stars, as my last visit my chicken was burnt and salty, a sad day, but I'm not knocking them out just yet, I will be back for the deals Tip: Halal Happy eats, Loves! ^_^

Not…read more"pretty good for takeout," not "good on a lucky day," just genuinely solid every single time. This time, I went with the Anwar Style Chicken Shawarma to try something new. The portion size alone is impressive. The container is packed and feels substantial the moment you pick it up. The base is a bed of fries, and these are not just filler. They are thick, well seasoned, and sturdy enough to handle all the toppings without turning into a soggy mess. On top of the fries is a generous amount of chicken. The chicken tastes freshly cooked, with that warm, savory flavor you expect from good shawarma, never dry and never overly salty. There are pita chips mixed in, which add a great crunch and texture against the fries and chicken. Multiple sauces are drizzled throughout the dish. I chose a side of their spicy sauce. The creamy white sauce balances things out, while the orange sauce brings a mild heat and a little extra depth. None of the sauces overpower the dish, they work together to coat everything evenly and keep every bite flavorful. Diced tomatoes and corn adds a touch of sweetness that surprisingly works really well here. A sprinkle of herbs throughout helps brighten everything up and keeps the dish from feeling too heavy, even though it is definitely filling. This is comfort food done right. It is messy in the best way, packed with flavor, at least to me it was. If you are looking for something hearty, satisfying, and consistently well made, I will always recommend Anwar's Kitchen. Anwar's Kitchen delivers quality food, and I will keep ordering from them.

It was also annoying for the waitress (not the gal that served us btw - a host perhaps) to give the vibe like they were doing us a favor by applying the $50 Birthday promo that THEY send via email (note, I verbally this flagged when we arrived just in case - but they didn't initially have it on our bill). My head is thinking "calm down--we ate minimally and got drinks. Don't offer it if you're going to have an attitude about adjusting the bill". It was just weird. They also didn't offer any bday dessert treat but we weren't super pressed bc we were so full. The meat was a bit overdone and all kind of tasted the same this visit. Didn't get to try the lamb chops and a few other meats, but still has a nice variety. Salad bar is top notch and consistent, although wish their black beans were plain due to all the meat. Drinks were ok--heavy pours but lower quality wine. The $29 "Wine Experience" package was worth it for my husband who likes variety of wines with his dinner depending on what he's eating. I'm sure I'll come again but it's been bumped a few notches on my Go To list.

It's best to make a reservation in advance if you plan to dine here as they are almost always fully at capacity. They have both indoor and outdoor dining. If the weather is not too hot, I recommend sitting outside. Our mistake was choosing the indoors because it gets awfully loud to the point where you can't even hear the server(s) or your own party speak. Truth be told that's the major factor in the minus 1 star as it negatively affected our overall dining experience. 1. Farm Cheese Spread (5/5) The farm cheese was super light and airy. It's seasoned with sumac/fig leaf za'atar, rose petal (mostly for decor than taste) and fresh rosemary. It's served with 2 slices of crispy edged, doughy centered, black sesame bread that's toasted to perfection. 2. Baba Ghanoush (5/5) This is a dip dish made of smoked eggplant, Jimmy Nardello peppers (adds sweetness and smoky flavor), fennel escabeche, dill and olive oil. It's served with sites of fried pita bread. The eggplant was perfectly savory from the grilled onions and non-spicy, smoky flavor of the peppers. The Pita bread is like a fried beignet donut in terms of flavor. Another enjoyable appetizer to share. 3. Oyster Mushroom Kebab (5/5) Amazing smokey, well-charred and juicy mushroom with a nice price tag attached to it, but still worth to enjoy. It's served with avocado-lovage puree and sumac, which paired well with the mushroom flavor. 4. Grilled Octopus (5/5): The octopus tentacles were cooked to perfection - soft & melts in your mouth. It's almost like eating a very soft rice cake with a hint of seafood flavor note. It's served with sides of skordalia potato puree, brocooli, lamb xo sauce and coated in dill to give it a slightly spicy and savory profile. 5. Slow-Roasted Lamb Neck Shawarma (4.5/5) Super tender lamb meat that's also very fatty. It's served with a side of basil-cilantro like sauce, pickled vegetables and tahini sauce which was super creamy and helped to cut the gaminess of the lamb. The dish also comes with a full size laffa bread, which was fresh (made in-house; you can literally see them making it in the background) and pillowy-soft to wrap the lamb meat in. 6. Cherry Sumac & Ricotta cheese pastry (4/5) We ended with a crispy Cherry jam tart. The puff pastry was flaky puff while the cherry jam was tart and sweet. It paired well with their ricotta cheese, which was light and airy and sprinkled with sumac. It also comes with a scoop of Pistachio ice cream that's subtly nutty and floral but was a bit too sweet for our liking. Overall, the food here was good, but the dining environment was too loud for our liking. This place is often compared to Bestia, which we prefer. Fun fact - Bavel and Bestia are owned by the same owners.

Service was great. The bartender and server were both super knowledgeable and helped guide us through everything, which made a big difference with a menu like this. The ambience is beautiful. Big bar in the back, great lighting, a mix of natural and more moody tones that make it feel elevated but still comfortable. For mains, the pot pies are a must. We tried the biryani and the butter chicken versions, completely different but both worth it. Portions are huge, you will have leftovers. The quesadilla with fajita peppers and tandoori chicken was such a cool fusion idea and worked really well. The boneless truffle chicken had this creamy, almost alfredo style sauce with Indian spices that made it super unique. Ended with the saffron noodle pistachio ice cream dessert and that was unlike anything I've had before. Definitely something you try at least once. This is one of those spots where everything feels creative and intentional. I'll definitely be back.
