Perfect every time! The chicken is always consistently delicious and the workers are very nice. The restaurant has a lot of seating and is quite clean. The menu has a good variety of flavors and chicken to choose from so you're bound to find something that you like. They also play KPOP music videos which is a giant plus. The price is slightly higher than the average chicken place, in my opinion. However, you're definitely paying for the quality and taste. We always stop by when we're in the area and so should you!

We ordered takeout from here. It was nice to be able to order through their website. I thought the crispy wings were quite good; I preferred them to the original wings. They do have seasoning and can be eaten alone, though you can also order sauce on the side.We also tried the soy glazed wings; they were decent but quite sweet and literally dripping with honey. They also had just a hint of heat.Lastly, we had wings glazed with the Signature sauce. Unfortunately these were a miss for me; they were oddly sour and funky. Licking my fingers was unpleasant.Even so, I give this 4 stars because the crispy wings were yummy and I'm sure they're even better fresh in the restaurant.

Pelicana Chicken offers Korean Fried Chicken along with a variety of side dishes. The small and intimate setting, coupled with the very friendly staff who readily offer suggestions, makes it a must-try for any KFC lover.#PelicanaChicken #KoreanFriedChicken #FoodieFinds #KFClover

I stopped by for Crispy Fried Wings on a Friday afternoon with a party of 4. We got seated right by away and were served drinks upon ordering. The male server helping us was attentive and quick. We ordered Cheese Sticks, Soy Crispy Fried Wings, and Signature Crispy Fried Wings. We also got cabbage salad as dine-in service and 2 extra sides of pickled radish! We even got gloves upon request!! After tax + tip it was about $50 which is worth it for a party of 4! The restaurant is modern and clean. 10/10 recommend this location for casual dining or a quick to-go order.

This place is located in a busy plaza, so parking is not the greatest. It's a little smaller on the inside, so I wouldn't say it's too convenient for larger parties but it's an easy food to take to-go. As far as service, the service was honestly a little slow and we went on a not-so busy weekday night and had to constantly try to grab the server's attention. We got: - Whole fried chicken (4/5): chicken was crispy and juicy - Soy sauce (4/5): my favorite, had a sweetness to it - Garlic sauce (3/5): garlic wasn't too strong and I love garlic Overall, would probably visit if I'm in the area and have no other choice for fried chicken but just decent.

Located amongst the many resteraunts in the area, we were happy we spotted it while dining nearby. We visited around 2pm and it was super mellow. We were greeted and immediately brought water once seated. We ordered the crispy half dry chicken wings with signature sauce on the side and half Wet Garlic Wings, with a side of Sweet Potato Fries. Included with the chicken wings, you'll get Pickled Radish and Cabbage Slaw. The crispy chicken wings were so delicious. Happy that we ordered the double battered wings, they were perfectly fried and hot from being cooked to order. I loved the wings without sauce and paying an extra $2 for Signature Sauce (sweet w/slight heat) on the side was not needed. The pickled radishes were so delicious and you can ask for more! The cabbage slaw was an awesome addition as well. The dressing was used to dip my sweet potato fries and chicken in. The garlic chicken wings were good, just a bit too much sauce for me. The wings tossed in a garlic sauce, remained crispy and were heavy in garlic flavor. If you like garlic, you'll love this flavor. The sweet potato fries were served almost immediately and they were crispy and delicious! A side of ranch and ketchup came with the fries. Overall, we enjoyed the meal and service!

The manner of answering the phone was not good, and the chicken was fried too much, so it was not cool. I've been there several times, but I've never seen them say hello. It's expensive...and I won't go there again.
Was so excited to try out this chicken place, however we were left disappointed & SO grossed out!!! We ordered their crispy fried wings. At first, the chicken looked really good cause they were so generous with the sauce. But upon taking a closer look, the CHICKEN WINGS STILL HAD HAIR on them.. it wasn't just 1-2pcs of hair too, it was A LOT which was hard to ignore. Flavour of their cheese powder and garlic sauce aren't bad but the meat itself didn't really have any flavour. You would think they'd clean their chicken thoroughly since their food ain't cheap. 1 star for the fries and onion rings cause that's the only thing that saved our meal. Never coming back here.

I love Korean fried chicken so I was super excited to try this place. It's located in a busy plaza but it was empty when we got there for lunch on a Sunday. We got ddukboki, original wings, and garlic wings. I loved that the ddukboki comes with mini rice cakes so that the rice cake/sauce ratio is perfect. The complimentary salad was alright. In terms of the chicken, i loved the original wings - asked for ranch and their spicy sauce to dip. Both sauces were delicious! The garlic wings were good too but I'm just not a huge fan of flavored wings. Would definitely come back!

This is a decent, clean place to hang out. But the food is mid and the service is just so so. I've been to another Pelicana and it was way better. Probably won't come back to this one.

We had to wait a long time for our food. And the chicken was very disappointing. They bear the Pelicana name, but the one in Buena Park is much better.
