Mrs. Knott's Chicken Dinner Restaurant
This is a super traditional chicken place - think of the chicken dinner that your grandma made.

This may have started the gourmet fried chicken model. There are two locations: Universal CityWalk and Staples Center
It's the KFC model but with a homemade quality. It's not too heavy, and it's great chicken quality. There are two Dinah's in Los Angeles County -- Glendale and Culver City -- but apparently the only thing they share in common is the chicken recipe.

Glendale, CA 91204
6521 Sepulveda Blvd.

The chicken here has lots of flavor, and it's perfectly crispy.

This is a Japanese take on classic Southern fried chicken with all the "fixins," including curried creamed corn, dashi-braised collard greens and an out-of-this world nori-topped mac-and-cheese. Suit up in the provided plastic glove and dig in. Don't forget the spicy ponzu!
