The fried chicken is some of the best fried chicken chicken. We ordered the sweet and spicy sauce on the side and it was so delicious. I'd suggest ordering the chicken with the sauce on. Customer service was great. Certainly will be going back for the best fried chicken in Illinois (in my opinion).

Been waiting to try this dark and mysterious hub of Korean chicken goodnesses. My goodness, why did I wait? Ordered via Uber eats and food took about 40 minutes. We did 1/2 and 1/2. Plus additional tender order and of course the $5.00 fries. I wish fries were crispy but didn't stop my wife and Me from inhaling them. Now, let's talk sweet/spicy chicken. Delicious! If your expecting the same thing as Bonchon, it's different. But very tasty. Remember that Korean chicken is cut randomly and you don't have the "regular cuts"as you'd find from KFC or other American style places. Work around and dig in, no fork needed and messy but worth the clean up. Regular chicken was tasty and crunchy. Tenders were $10.99 but a nice full order. Enough to share as a generous side. Added plus were the pickled radish cubes. Excellent. I wish it had coleslaw but that would be too American I think.

Wow, so glad I found this place! Korean fried chicken is the best and they do a great job! All three varieties are excellent! I'd also recommend the Kimchi Fried Rice and the Bulgogi Skillet. May they get a lot of business during Covid!

My family is a huge fan of the sweet and spicy wing and we come here pretty frequently. We'll definitely try some more stuff on the menu.

Great chicken spot. Very authentic to a Korean chicken place in Korea, its like you are most there for real. Friendly staff as well.

The closest place to Lake County to grab some Korean chicken...so convenience vote for me living in the boonies. Get the half and half with extra picked radishes. Pitchers of beer is a must with the chixn. Kpop heavy spot if u wanna stan it up.

This place has amazing korean fried chicken. They're so crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. It truly reminds me of getting fried chicken straight from Korea. You also can get other things like fries and cheese corn to go with your chicken as well (on top of other side dishes)! I would say the service is pretty good and they check up on you quite often which is nice so you never feel like you're fighting for your server's attention. They will come to you before you even ask for their help.
The original fried chicken wings and popcorn shrimp were just okay. They were dry and not very tasty. :(

In the middle of quarantine we picked up sweet and spicy chicken, and were very content with the large quantity. We'll definitely be coming back.

We love going out. Last night we found this excellent restaurant which we didn’t know before. We had a beautiful evening there with fine dishes and a courteous team and an impressive cook. We added this venue in our list and we shall certainly come back very soon. Highly recommended.

I heard the fried chicken here was pretty good- so I came here assuming the atmosphere would be similar to choongman chicken in glenview. However, it was empty with the exception of a few people coming in and out for pickup orders. I ordered the chicken gizzards thinking, again, that it was like choongman chicken's. I was wrong - these were sauteed on a sizzling dish and not good at all. We were immediately disappointed and ordered a small order of fried chicken wings with the sweet and spicy sauce on the side (extra cost- which we were not made aware of). This took a long time to come out- hopefully because it was freshly fried! When we were asking the server a few questions on the menu, he was pretty rude at first by claiming there was nothing we were asking for because it's a bar. However, this bar was not serving alcohol at the time and had byob signs everywhere... Also can't forget the fact that the Christmas decorations were still up. I felt weird sitting next to a Christmas tree in March. Oh well, the fried chicken wings were tasty, but I will definitely resort to choongman chicken next time.
