Crimson Coward — Restaurant in Long Beach

If you’re a fan of bold flavors, crispy perfection, and that irresistible Nashville heat, Crimson Coward is your new go-to spot. From the moment you walk in, you’re greeted with the intoxicating aroma of spices and fried chicken that lets you know—you’re in for something special.

Let’s talk chicken. The Crimson Rub is no joke—it’s packed with flavor that hits you immediately but doesn’t overpower. The crispy skin is beautifully golden, while the meat stays juicy and tender all the way through. Whether you go for Mild or dare to challenge the Burn Baby Burn heat level, every bite delivers a deep, smoky spice that lingers in the best way possible.

The Crimson Sandwich is an absolute must—stacked high with a perfectly fried breast, pickles, slaw, and their signature sauce on a fluffy brioche bun. It’s messy, delicious, and worth every drip. The tenders are huge, juicy, and hand-breaded to order, served up with their addictive Coward Sauce—you’ll want to dip everything in it.

Sides like the mac & cheese and crinkle-cut fries hold their own too—comforting, creamy, and seasoned just right. And don’t sleep on the banana pudding for dessert. It’s the perfect cool-down after all that heat.

Also, huge shoutout to Diana, who went above and beyond to make the experience even better. She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable about the menu, and made sure everything was just right. You can tell she genuinely cares about the customer’s experience, and it made all the difference.
