Yall have to put up a post or take the time to update your hours even if the business is going through a temporary close. It sucks to have to drive so far just for the door to have a shtty drawn sign taped up that says "temporarily closed".

The chicken had a good flavor but wasn’t cooked to a good crisp it was very soft. The corn dog wasn’t bad but it wasn’t as good as I hoped it’d be. The service was just okay.

We have waited so long for Mochinut to arrive here in omaha. We have driven to Chicago to get it several times, so having it close to home is so nice. The bubble donuts are delicious and unique. Many different flavors and the texture is delightful. The other hit is the Korean Corndogs. They have different toppings, but we keep it original. Definitely a fun place to go!

This new SmileChicken is a million times better than the old chicken they used to sell, they don’t have all the flavors available yet but I’ll definitely be back to try them

What they were before as Kchicken was great, the chicken was nice and crispy and fresh. Now they are know as Smile chicken, who claim to cook their chicken the same way but after trying the new version it is not the same and it is very disappointing. The chicken is barely crispy and a lot less flavor also why open a new store without making sure all of the available options are available. Why do these great thing have to change all of a sudden and take away the fleeting amount of enjoyment left around.

Super friendly service! They really promote their food! Boneless chicken is delish! My fav is Soy Garlic Wing. Very tasty, crunchy, but soft inside! Mochi donut is super soft! I love it here! Highly recommended, and I'll definitely become a regular!

Amazing reopening, they only opened 3 days ago! New owners, new chef, new everything. Best Korean fried chicken on the east side for sure. It even beats cross street chicken/other k-chicken places in Convoy/Clairemont.

The new ownership is off to a great start with absolutely fresh, juicy fried chicken wings. We got the hot and spicy, and it gave a really nummy spicy orange chicken flavor with burn-your-fingers fresh out of the fryer crunchy chicken. The chicken meat was juicy and the batter was delicious.

Did not try the mochinut. Only here for the amazing real-deal Korean chicken while it lasts. Definitely rivals the Korean fried chicken in LA too.

Service was attentive as they answered everything with a cheerful smile, despite us entering and eating at the establishment 20 minutes before they closed. They even offered us free samples to try! Atmosphere was def reminiscent of LA shops as Kpop bounced off the walls with girl dance groups. Very fun and very Korean. Will be back!

Wow, this Korean chicken was incredible! The crispy coating had the perfect crunch, and the flavor was out of this world. I've had my fair share of Korean fried chicken, but this place truly stands out. Every bite was a delightful mix of sweet, spicy, and savory that kept me coming back for more. The chicken itself was juicy and tender--just amazing.

On top of the fantastic food, the people here were incredibly nice. They even gave my partner and me a free sample of their boneless chicken, which was just as delicious. I'm definitely coming back soon!

I was diagnosed with fibroid and felt hopeless until I found Dr. Akhigbe. His herbal treatment worked wonders, and I am now completely free of the virus. His knowledge and compassionate care made all the difference. I'm forever grateful to Dr. Akhigbe for giving me my life back. you can also visit his Page www.facebook.com/HerpesAndLupusCure
