Hail to the pickle. Crispy, crunchy, so simple yet so delicious. We kicked it up a few notches with our fried pickles. If you love regular pickles you must try an elevated side of Crimson Coward fried pickles. A favorite snack food across the South and now thankfully across America, they were originally called “French Fried Pickles”. Our sliced pickles are dipped and then lightly battered and fried up to order. Everything that you love about a pickle but dressed up Crimson Coward style. Don’t forget a side of our housemade Ranch
Ask whether the batter is made with egg and milk.
Large onion battered and fried, served with Crimson Sauce
Ask whether it is cooked in butter or a meat stock rather than oil.
Who knew vegetables could taste this good? Crimson Coward Slaw might make you into a salad lover. Thinly sliced green and purple cabbage is tossed with shredded carrots, dressed in a house-made vinaigrette and garnished with fresh cilantro. Crunchy, cooling and refreshing meet Crimson Cowards signature slaw, truly the perfect accompaniment to our Nashville inspired hot chicken served up fresh daily right here in Downey, CA
Does the slaw dressing have mayo or dairy?
Fresh made waffle served with butter and maple syrup
Ask for it without the butter, and ask the chef if they can make it vegan by replacing cow's milk and eggs with plant-based milk and simple rising agents like baking powder.
Seasoned fries
Ask whether the fryer is shared with meat, and if there is egg in the batter.
Our house sauce made with Crimson seasoning
Ask whether it contains dairy, egg, anchovy or fish sauce.
