so so so so SO good. I got medium and the spice level was perfect for me. The lady at the register was 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!!! read more

The Red Chickz - 3 Tenders w/ Side - Chicken Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

One word = FANTASTIC! I came here to try the chicken and shrimp and was extremely impressed. I ordered the shrimp meal with mac and cheese and one side of chicken tender! 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.

HEY, VEGANS! Check out the photo! I made lazy "fish" tacos with cauliflower bites, bagged salad, and corn tortillas! I'm sure you can make them better, but this is the lazy version, and it works for me! The service is great, and ordering from the app for pick up is very convenient! read more

Red Chickz in Downtown LA is easily a 5-star spot. The chicken was so good and every bite had the perfect crunch. The flavor, the freshness, and the quality were all on point. Definitely one of the best hot chicken spots around. I'll for sure be coming back again. It's a vibe with good food!!! read more

Was craving a fried chicken sandwich in my endless quest to find a buttermilk-like batter, non-Nashville, non-hot honey bullshit anything, came across this place on Door of the Dash and placed an order, took the plunge. For $16-17 you can get a sando and a side here, whereas at Hilltop Kitchen few blocks east, it's now a whopping 21 bucks tax included just to slap a bird in 2 buns these days, no side. Its also...NO CONTEST after first bite here. This is now officially my favorite chicken sando in DTLA...I always order no heat/spice, and then just slather with Franks buffalo sauce, because I can't stand that chili paste smothering and ruining perfectly cooked, juicy fried crunch of a regular batter. But to each their own. You have 5-6 levels of "heat" if you want, and Nashville till your hearts content. The Dash website had a $6.00 off promo spending $20, so I ordered a tender on the side; it was like getting it free. Wow, what a tender, it was more like a pounder. Gigantic breast piece that was delish, still hot after sitting for me to pick up and bringing back to the office 2 blocks away. The sandwich is a perfect size, great coleslaw, and the pickles aren't sweet (none of the bread-and-butter bullshit, just dill chips here baby.) The side I chose (potato wedges) remind me of the KFC ones, but had a great, "Tommie's-like" seasoning. Very, very good and perfectly fried, to the last one. 5 stars with a bullet, shocked and awed and... relieved. Add to the list of monthly visits of sinful indulgence, if not bi-weekly. Also, they claim all chicken is without antis or hormones; can't think of a single place chick wise that can claim this. Daves? Sucks. And they have zero options for a country style batter like this. Enjoy your 55+-ingredient chlorine washed chick-fill-a-dickpuke waiting in a drive-thru while you read this review. read more

Food was big bussin', ngl. I ordered 3 tenders: 'Bonfire' hot w/ the mac & cheese side. Anthony (servwe) was kind enough to give us complementary cheese tatertots as well The crunch + breading was perfectly crispy & not even remotely dry. The tenders were juicy as hell. definitely 11/10 I would recommend going for medium spice for those that spices out pretty quick. read more

Great chicken tenders spot with a Thursday $2 deal that can't be beat! First the negatives. The location is a little tough because it's DTLA so parking can be a challenge - metered street parking or paid lots. It gets busy and there isn't a ton of room or seating inside and outside isn't the most pleasant. The orders can take a little long. A lot of them are to go orders. Now the positives. If you work nearby, it's a great lunch spot. The tenders are large. 2 would be enough if you're being good on portions. The crunchy batter is fried to perfection. For heat level, i liked the mild the best. It had the best flavor with a touch of spice. I also tried the medium and while it was hotter, it did have any added flavor in fact i felt it took away from the flavor. I like the potato wedges as well and the fried cheese curds were just ok. Workers were nice. I would definitely come here if I was craving chicken tenders a definitely if it was a Thursday. Btw, I happen to have tried Dave's hot chicken a week prior to this and although Dave's is better, it's also way pricier. read more

Cannot say enough good things about this place. Was recommended by a friend. Long line but moved fast. Friendly service. Large servings. Fair prices. Highly recommend and will definitely return. Unfortunately there are a lot of homeless in the area and parking can be tricky. The corn was my favorite. read more

Really solid Nashville hot chicken spot! I love potato wedges too so them using that as their side instead of regular fries definitely makes them stand out. Service was fast and friendly, and there is a few spots inside to eat if you'd like but it is a smaller restaurant. The mild level was not spicy so if you want a kick definitely go up a heat level! The loaded mac bowl was probably most popular and was super good! read more

My friend pointed out that this place had $2 chicken tenders on Thursdays, so we decided to go and try a bunch of them. I also brought four pieces back to my mom because she wanted to try them too and she absolutely loved the medium flavor. She said it was so good and asked for six the next time I go, so I gave her my additional 3 pieces that I was going to eat tomorrow. I think realistically though, this is a good place to go to get 2 pieces and a sauce for $4.50 (the sauces are 50 cents each). I'm not sure how my mom is able to just keep eating these, but the flavor gets a little repetitive after the second piece and it becomes difficult to eat a third. If you feel that way too after trying these, maybe the one without any seasoning could work for you. As far as the chicken tenders go, they are juicy and succulent on the inside, so chances are, they are probably brined. The crispiness is nice too and you get a good crunch with each bite. However, the seasoning choice is a little unusual in my opinion. While it is a flavorful blend, it doesn't have that perfect blend that makes you want to keep eating more and more and more, which you can find at similar places. The service for the food is quick and the ambiance is cool and chill, but you don't find too many people dining in at this location, probably due to the challenges of parking in downtown la. My mom wants me to get more of these, so I guess I'll be going back next week. read more

This place was awesome - I never had Nashville hot chicken and I will definitely return. Ordered the Mac bowl, wings, tenders, & corn. Everything was flavorful, moist, and not too spicy (got the spark level). The service was friendly, patient, and accommodating. The eating area was small inside but they do have outside tables. Can't wait to try the other items on the menu!!! read more

Sandwich meal came out to $15. The fries were lowkey L. They were dry af I didn't even eat like 3/4 of them. They def need to work on the wedge/fry situation going on, maybe avoid that and get the Mac n cheese instead. I regretted not doing that. Other than that, the chicken sandwich was good and the lady helping us at the counter was super friendly. Could have been a 5/5, change that wedge recipe. read more

My favorite, Nashville style chicken around. Affordable, delicious, good deals , potato wedges are great, Mac and cheese delicious. Definitely suggest this place to everyone. Loyal customer ! read more

I've only gotten this delivered, and it didn't disappoint! The chicken is nice and juicy and I love that the skin/seasoning stays on as you break apart the tender. I personally prefer their chicken over the shrimp. I got mild and it still had plenty of spice but didn't burn my tongue or make me sweat. The red seasoning on its own is good but I was wanting something more from the flavor... like maybe some lime or honey... So bringing on that honey butter was genius! It really elevates the experience with the spicy, sweet, creamy flavors uniting! Sooo good! Their potato wedges were really nicely seasoned. I wish they were cut a little thicker cuz I like more potato out of my wedge but they were still good. The ranch was bombbb too. The Cole slaw was decent and a nice bite with the spice of the chicken. I rarely like Cole slaw. This one wasn't overly moist, and was fresh and crunchy. Overall, a really great option for hot chicken! read more

Just wanted to update my review to say I'm happy this place survived the pandemic and now seems to be thriving again with a robust lunch crowd that I'm always in the midst of each trip down.

I'm not a big spicy chicken girl but the tenders here are a force to be reckoned with! They were nicely fried- crispy and not too greasy. I ordered the mild and that had the perfect amount of heat while still tasting very good! I got the potato wedges as a side and they were nicely seasoned and delicious as well. Red Chickz has a few daily lunch specials and if you come on Thursdays the tenders are just $2. read more

Crispy crunch you can hear. Spark heat level set the perfect amount of fire in my mouth. Tender juicy & packs a punch. Got the 2 Tenders with Mac & Cheese side. FYI the mac & cheese is a soft velveeta style kind. As an obsessed fried chicken lover, Red Chickz checks and is now on the list! read more

The Red Chickz - 2 Tenders w/ Mac & Cheese side - Chicken Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Today I tried this place the Downtown location. Today is Thursday so they have a great deal 2 dollar tenders all day today. I got 4 tenders and some come back sauce to go along with my tenders. 1st of all the tenders are huge I definitely could not eat all for so I shared some with co workers. You definitely get the bang for your buck with this deal. I called my order in and it was ready when I arrived like 15 minutes later. I asked what was the one before the hottest and I was told the Spark was the one so I got the spark flavor. The breading on these tenders is so light, crunchy, and airy. It's not that hard breading that tears up the roof of your mouth. The chicken is fresh and very tender not dry at all. The heat was not hot to me at all so I guess I will have to get the hottest next time I order from here because I like very spicy food. The come back sauce is pretty good but I prefer the buffalo sauce that I also got. Over all I enjoyed the food and I will definitely get them again especially on Thursday. My only gripe was they don't have blue cheese dressing that would have been perfect for dipping. read more

The Red Chickz - 4 Tenders Spark flavor - Chicken Shop Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I visited after much time on a Thursday and purchased tenders for $2 each in medium heat (spark). The tenders were juicy, relatively large and the spice mix was addicting. Spark is supposed to be medium heat but I personally didn't think it has any heat at all so I'll try the next level of spice, bonfire next time. The dipping sauces aren't free. Their comeback sauce was just okay - it has a strong vinegar/pickle juice flavor. I took my food home and ate it with ChikFilA sauce. Docking one star due to the location. If you're driving all the way here like I did to try the tenders, consider the parking lots are at least $13/day across the street or even pricier by the hour at other lots. Service wasn't the fastest due to the number of pick up orders they had that day but the cashier was polite. Lots of homeless in the vicinity and it reeks of cigaweed. read more

I love their Buffalo Wings especially with their ranch. It's a MUST TRY you have to try it.

Got the mild tender deal on Thursday. Was juicy and flavored well. Preordered ahead of time to avoid the wait. If not it can be 20 to 30 min wait. Good amount of space but can get crowded with indoor and outdoor seating. Can't beat 2 dollar tenders. Highly recommend. read more

The food was good, not amazing but it wasn't bad. i enjoyed it, the chicken was crispy and juicy. however the thing that sucked was the restroom. They don't allowed people to use it. Which is understandable for ppl that aren't customers but if you're eating and you gotta pee youre screwed. You force to walk around and use some alley way which isn't free so you gotta spend another $5 on the cheapest item to use the restroom. read more

I've come here quite a few times and also have been to the Culver City location. The downtown location has the most patient employees I have ever seen.Their Thursday tender deal and lunch combos really have this location packed and the employees are really going above and beyond to now only deliver great customer service , but also ensure the food quality does suffer when the restaurant is super busy. The downtown location is very high traffic and not in the best neighborhood Over my last 3-4 visits here I notice how attentive the staff is with patrons and also keeping the restaurant clean Sometimes the wait times are long but it's totally worth it , and if you have never been you should definitely try this place The chicken is seasoned and juicy and always comes out fresh, their potatoes wedges are sooo good read more

Incredibly impressed with the food here. Nashville chicken sandwiches are all the rage nowadays, so it's important to bring your A-game when the competition is fierce -- and The Red Chickz did just that! I placed my order online ahead of time and it was ready when I get there. The gentlemen at the front (didn't get his name) was doing it all aside from cooking food: taking orders, cleaning tables, bagging and handing out the food, loved seeing his hustle. He was super upbeat and helpful. Anyways, onto the food which is what you're reading this for...it was BOMB! The sandwich was expertly crafted, and wasn't messy at all. I'd recommend getting their sauce on the side to help in that regard. The chicken was cooked perfectly, great crunch on the breading. spice level was on point (medium), and the slaw balanced out the chicken nicely. The potato wedges hit the spot and had a nice crunch with some seasoning on there. All in all, very filling and flavorful meal for a great price. Highly recommend you check this place out, it'll scratch that itch and leave your tastebuds satisfied! read more

I can this chicken alll day!!!! So delicious. Great customer service, food is always hot and ready to eat.

The amount of ads advertising $2 tenders on Thursdays is wild, but it worked! Came here on a Thursday at 3pm and only waited about 7 mins for an order of 3 tenders. Looks like they had a bunch of online to go orders coming through. The biggest standout about the chicken here is the crunchiness. Look at the texture of the chicken! It's top notch. Some may argue that it might be too hard though. I managed to bend/break my plastic fork trying to pick up a tender. Spic level is on the lower side. Of you had Hownlin Rays hot, this hot is 2 steps lower. The biggest down side to this is the center pieces were dense and little more dry, but not to the point where it was not edible. I thought about the Howlin Rays tendered while eating this and wished there was a combo where the tenders are super crispy but also juicy on the inside. Please get on this! If Red Chikz can crack this and still keep the prices at $2 a tender on Thursdays, then we have a winner. Bathroom here is also for employees only. Indoor and outdoor seating available. Looking forward to this potential improvement. read more

There was so many great choices to pick from from sandwiches, tenders, chicken and waffles, tacos, French toast, loaded wedges and the option to switch the chicken for fried shrimp or fried cauliflower! What impressed me the most was that crazy HONEY BUTTER Crispy Spicy Chicken Sandwich!!!! That honey butter is a messy situation but with one bite, it is so addictively and dangerously delicious. You will suddenly find yourself licking your fingers. The nice contrast of the crispy spicy tender with the sweet honey butter spread is OMG good. I am telling you, your eyes will roll back.

Haven't made a review in a while, but Nima and The Red Chickz deserved this. The Red Chickz was one of the places we as a family decided we wanted to try in LA while we wait on our 8 hour layover to Spain. It DID NOT DISAPPOINT The chicken is breaded to perfection and was fried to the right crispness that isn't really overdone, which would make it too hard to enjoy and eat. The flavor was on point. The seasoning varies by heat level. Can't review anything hotter than bonfire, but that was plenty spicy as is. The portions are big and they're priced well for the serving size. The food alone is worth the long drive you had to make one. Tip: lunch hour they have $10 chicken sandwich meals and Tuesday(the day we just so happened we went) they have the wraps as half off! I had to point out though the staff is what made the place really a 10/10. Suggestions were spot on and really, they took care of us like family. They were patient with us and answered respectfully. Nima came out personally and apologized for a wait(middle of lunch hour) that wasn't anything too extra. We talked and shared some life stories. Nima, if you remember my family from Hawaii, I just wanted to say I hope you see this and we're grateful for the experience you gave us. I'll be back 100% the next time I come to LA read more
