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.

I wasn't trying that today but to each his own Surprisingly they have special beverages, today I tried the blood orange lemonade, it was a must with the spicy level of the chicken sandwich. Gang!

This was somewhat of a big mess. Let me say upfront that everyone I dealt with was friendly, and…read morethe chicken sandwich was probably the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. Even so, I probably won't go back. We showed up and the place was pretty much empty, with just a couple of tables occupied. We ordered, sat down, and waited. And waited. I couldn't help but notice that all of the tables that were there before us had been served, while bags of food kept going out the door for takeout orders. I understand that this isn't fast food, but seriously, I have an issue with waiting 35 minutes for a fried chicken sandwich, especially when the restaurant isn't busy. Adding insult to injury, when our food finally arrived, the server said, "Thank you so much for being patient!" That made me wonder if this kind of wait is normal. Instead of acknowledging that something had gone wrong, it felt like the long wait was simply being brushed off. The frustrating part is that the sandwich and fries were excellent. The chicken sandwich really may have been the best I've ever had, which makes the whole experience even more disappointing. Great food, friendly people, but a 35-minute wait for a chicken sandwich in an almost empty restaurant is enough to keep me from going back.

Best chicken sandwich I've had…read more I came here after seeing a bunch of videos online, and it definitely lived up to the hype. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich, and it was way bigger than I expected. I also got the Le Coupe Sauce on the side, which is a mix of honey mustard and BBQ sauce. The chicken is made with thigh meat, so it's really juicy, and the breading has a nice crunch. The slaw goes well with it without taking away from the sandwich. I was planning to eat it when I got home, but after taking test bite at a red light, I ended up pulling over and finishing the whole thing in my car. It was that good. I'll definitely be coming back. The staff was really friendly too. Since it was my first time, I asked a lot of questions about the menu, what was popular, and what was in the Le Coupe Sauce. They were patient, answered everything, and helped me decide what to order. There are a few tables inside and out but the restaurant is small so if you come with a party you may have to wait until a space is free.

But was it still delicious and fried to perfection? Yes. Overall it was a really tasty fried chicken sandwich, the buns held the stack of creamy coleslaw and perfectly crunchy and juicy chicken together well. The bite had great flavour and texture, but it was mostly sweet and creamy. The self advertised slap yo' mama's hot sauce and chili hot honey made me crave some heat that was lacking from the sandwich. Parking was easy and service was great, no reservations needed.

Unlike the regular fried chicken, the zaab fried chicken comes dressed with the garnishes and seasonings you'd find on Thai larb, including fresh herbs like cilantro, lime, sugar, lemongrass, chillis, and fish sauce. The sweetness and the heat are both pronounced without feeling overwhelming. Although the order had been steaming in its plastic takeout container for around 20 minutes after it had been picked up, the chicken was still really crispy when I took my first bite. The garlic rice is fragrant and fluffy. I had a taste of my friend's garlic noodles and I really enjoyed them as well. Oftentimes garlic noodles from restaurants are drenched with butter -- making it hard to eat more than a bite or two, but the noodles from here were light in comparison. The texture of the noodles were a tad softer than al dente, but not to the point of being soggy. I would gladly order the zaab fried chicken from Heng Heng Chicken Rice again.

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!

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.
