Rate-A-Restaurant #383: Trap Chicken (Glendale)


Restaurant: Trap Fried Chicken

Location: 1600 E Chevy Chase Dr. (Glendale)

Type of restaurant: Fried Chicken


We stipulated: Because of the lines, I still haven't been to Howlin' Rays. I know, I know. I might as well hand in my "spicy chicken" card now. But I do love all things spicy, and am always on the lookout for something new. For a Saturday night dinner, checking out the new Trap Fried Chicken, in our part of town, was worth a shot.

They stipulated: There are different levels of spice, depending on what you can handle: Mild, Hot or XXX.


What we ordered: XXX sliders for me ($12), mild sliders for Blogger Kid ($12), one mild, one hot for Maria ($12), Mac + Cheese for Blogger Kid 2.0 ($5), Fries ($3)


High point:  The sauce gave the chicken the spice that I craved. The pieces of chicken are extra big — you could probably split an order with someone else, depending on your hunger. I gladly devoured both, but Maria was one and done.

Low point: Blogger Kid felt that his mild sandwich was still too spicy — which made us wonder if he actually got a hot sandwich vs. a mild one.



Overall impression: The Mac and Cheese was good, and a nice alternative for the kid who didn't want chicken. Also, living up to its name, trap music was blaring from the speakers as we arrived — but it was a mix of music, and it was a good touch.



Will we return:  I'd like to hit it again — when I'm off my diet.
