I saw Happies Hand Made all over social media, so I made a note to check it out next time I'm…read morecraving fried chicken. 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.

​If you're looking for the gold standard of Korean Fried Chicken, this is it. I've tried a lot of…read morespots, but Pelicana consistently hits the mark on texture and flavor. ​Here is why they earned five stars: ​The Crunch Factor: The chicken is incredibly extra crispy. Even after being tossed in sauce, that initial bite has a perfect, loud crunch that stays crispy until the last piece. ​Honey Soy Perfection: The Honey Soy flavor is a must-order. It has the ideal balance of savory and sweet without being cloying. It's glazed perfectly so every inch of the chicken is coated. ​The Cheese Powder: Don't sleep on the Cheese flavor. It adds a unique, savory richness that pairs surprisingly well with their signature fry style. It's addictive. ​Quality: The meat is always juicy on the inside, which is the ultimate test for any fried chicken joint. ​Whether you're doing takeout or dining in, the quality is top-tier. Definitely my go-to spot when the craving hits!

I ordered the quarter chicken with rice and salad, and I was really impressed with the portion sizes. Everything was flavorful, comforting, and gave me the kind of authentic Latin food vibes that I love. The sauce was definitely the highlight for me--it was so good that I found myself adding it to every bite. The prices are also fantastic. For the quality and quantity of food you get, this place is truly a gem. That said, there were a couple of downsides. The restaurant itself is very small, with limited seating available. The customer service also wasn't the best during my visit. Since the dining area was completely full when we arrived, we decided to place our order to go. While we were waiting for our food, a table opened up, so we asked if we could sit down and eat there instead. We were told that because we had ordered our food to go, we were not allowed to sit in the restaurant. I found that a bit disappointing, especially since we had already paid for the same food as everyone else dining in. Overall, the food was excellent and definitely the reason I would come back. If I'm in the area and craving their chicken, I'd absolutely return--just with different expectations regarding the seating situation and service.

Perfectly cooked, crispy, and there's this slight sweetness to it that I really enjoyed. We ended up meeting the owner too. Great dude. Always makes me like a place even more when you meet the person behind it and immediately understand why the spot feels the way it does. Really happy we stumbled into Le Coupe.

The bite had great flavour and texture, but it was mostly sweet and creamy.

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.

They had a really good texture and tasted fresh. The sandwiches came on long buns kind of like the style KFC uses, but the chicken was way better. The chicken was juicy, tender, crispy, and packed with seasoning in every bite. The special sauce on top pulled everything together perfectly. I tried the Kluckin' Hot level and it had a really nice kick without being overwhelming. I enjoy spicy food, and for me it was flavorful more than painfully hot, which I liked because I could still taste the seasoning and the chicken itself..
