First visit: Apr 2025
Location: On Tejon right in the middle of the downtown action. Avenue 19 is a modern day food court with various restaurants inside of a large "hangout space" with tables, TV's, games, etc... I consider the bar area Avenue 19 and the rest are essentially static food trucks. Many of them are (or were) just that.
Food: On this visit we tried Firebird Chicken Sandwiches. I went for their hot variety which they call The Phoenix. Fire Mayo and Kimchi Slaw are the key ingredients to the crispy chicken I ordered. Mrs. RJG had the Dragon Rice Bowl (to the right) which she said was too sweet and not hot enough temperature. The latter a common complain for both of us, though mine was fine on this visit.
Drink: Fine selection of cocktails and a few craft beers, though not extensive. I went for a Goat Patch that I hadn't tried prior.
Overall: I'm adding to the RJG Rotation for two reasons. 1) I want to try some of the other food concepts. And 2) A good friend of the RJG's is one of the bartenders here. :-)
