** Take Metrolink and go Metro to Howlin' Ray's Pasadena location. Take Metro A Line from Los Angeles Union Station for 20 minutes, 7 stops and disembark at the Fillmore station. Walk about 4 minutes, 0.2 miles on Fillmore Street and turn right onto S Arroyo Pkwy/Historic Rte 66 E and arrive at the destination. 

Howlin' Ray’s has been taking Angelenos and tourists on a journey to Nashville’s hot chicken scene since 2015.

What started off as a food truck founded and operated by Angeleno native Johnny Ray Zone and his wife Amanda Chapman who was raised on southern soul food achieved such success that the eatery has since expanded into two brick and mortar restaurant destinations, without sacrificing any of its authentic original flavors.

With its flagship location in Chinatown and another location in Pasadena, visitors can typically expect to spend about an hour or more standing in line to get a taste of this coveted spicy chicken culinary creation.
