Linguine & Clams with uni aglio-olio, chili, and breadcrumbs
Fried Chicken Sandwich with spicy B&B pickle slaw and roasted aioli
A couple weeks ago I visited Son of a Gun with my foodie friend Jing. This hip seafood restaurant, located on 3rd Street between La Cienega and Fairfax in Los Angeles, is owned by the same people as Animal on Fairfax.
Since Jing has visited Son of a Gun a few times, she recommended ordering the Linguine & Clams with uni aglio-olio, chili, and breadcrumbs and the Fried Chicken Sandwich with spicy B&B pickle slaw and roasted aioli. Both were quite good. The linguine was prepared well and served with a very flavorful sauce and fresh clams. It was definitely a memorable dish. When initially telling me about the restaurant, Jing compared their fried chicken sandwich to Bakesale Betty's in Oakland. Although I still believe Betty's is unbeatable, Son of a Gun's is quite good. Like Betty's the slaw was not to be disregarded and the sandwich featured dynamic flavors throughout. However, at only $8 to Son of a Gun's $17, Betty's reigns supreme.
The shadowy interior is decorated in a nautical theme with anchors and paintings on the walls.
