Chicken Shops near Cliffside Park, NJ

“I really wanted to love this place. This was my second visit, and while there are a lot of things they do well, there are still some areas that need improvement.

Food:
As a Korean, I thought the chicken itself was really good. It was crispy, and I liked that they offer so many sauce options. My favorites were the Sweet & Sour and Spicy Garlic. The Smoky K-BBQ, it was meh- it wasn’t sweet, spicy, or smoky enough and tasted pretty bland. The SOS Spicy was extremely spicy (Buldak-level), so keep that in mind if you’re sensitive to heat.

I’ve tried a lot of Korean fried chicken spots in NJ, and I’d honestly rank this as one of the better ones. My biggest complaint is the sauce application. The chicken wasn’t coated evenly, with a lot of bare spots, and they weren’t very generous with the sauce, so there wasn’t enough to coat the pieces that were left plain.

The Blooming Onion was tasty but a little too greasy.The dipping sauce was also meh. The Korean Corn Ribs were good, but the portion felt small for the price.

Service:
This has been the biggest issue on both of my visits. They gave me an estimated pickup time, and I arrived after that, but my order still wasn’t ready. I ended up waiting another 5+ minutes even though I was the only customer there.

I know it’s World Cup season and everyone wants to watch the games, but the cooks were watching soccer while cooking instead of focusing on the orders. It gave the impression that the kitchen wasn’t paying full attention.

Overall, this is a good spot with some really solid food, but it has plenty of room for improvement. I hope the manager sees this review because with a little more attention to consistency and service, this place could easily become one of the best Korean fried chicken spots in the area.“

“Great place, this place literally cured my cold with their sopa de pollo. Tried the beef strew today, also stellar. Only problem is they run out of food a lot..but I guess that's a good sign. :) Great food, highly recommended - at at the location on Broadway between 160 and 161.“

“Tried DHC and honestly it did not disappoint! The chicken is tender, juicy and flavourful. The meal options are not too expensive either! It was so good we came again the next day. Also it is halal certified!

It's also worth trying their slushe drinks! So much better than the 7/11 stores.

Only negative is that there is not enough seating and it can get super busy. It is a 10/10 and would recommend.“

“I never eat chicken breast because they are too dry, but I can say this is the best fried chicken I’ve eaten from a restaurant. Juicy not greasy I wasn’t tired after I ate the meal absolutely delicious!“

“Great food!! Went there for the first time!“

“this place is amazing, bar is great and the karaoke is even better. Staff is super kind and understanding, they brought us popcorn and gave us extra time without asking, i highly recommend this place if you want to have a good time with friends. 5 stars.“

“I went to Dave’s hot chicken I ordered my food didn’t look at it until I got home and got someone else order but I wouldn’t go back because it was a 30 minute drive was upset bout not getting what I paid for.“

“Naan was lightly buttered and crispy, perfect for accompanying the flavorful curry, highly recommended“

“Love the brooklyn stak burger. Top tier fries.

Clean facility and bathroom, good seating.

My only complaint is that it would be great if they could revisit how the menu is split. Wish that it weren't such an upcharge to get cheese fries, since you can't get them as part of the drink + fries combo.“

“we just stopped by the Wake Forest location! London was our cashier, and she was so friendly!!! she was smiling as soon as we walked in! Will definitely come back!“

“Chicken and french toast brunch is amazing“

“Came here for the chicken skin and the bami giew goong and both did NOT disappoint. Chicken skin was crazy crispy, comes with this sweet-tangy dipping sauce that I could've drank straight. Gone in like 2 minutes.

The egg noodle with shrimp wontons soups on side was so comforting — wontons were packed full, broth was light but flavorful, loaded with cilantro and bok choy. Def the move if you want something warm and filling.

Portions are big, food came out fast and hot. Definitely coming back to try more off the menu 🍜“

“You can read story on their wall but this is not roasted as it says since chicken skin not even crispy. It’s braised old, tough chicken (similar to Coq Au Vin) which not really my thing since kinda dry & tough.

I got noodle soup as side so it somewhat masks dryness but still not as good as juicy, tender chicken. I’m more into young, tender chicken slow roasted under low heat.

Place is tiny & more a takeout place. Prices & service good but style of cooking just not my thing.“

“you think your grandma is in the kitchen. you really won't believe hiw good all the food is.“

“I love Bb.q chicken with all my heart. This is one of the best fried chicken places I ever tried. The chicken is ver juicy and fresh. I personally love the secret sauce bone- in wings but my friends like the honey garlic wings better. Give this place a try!!!“

“Foods and drinks are delish😋 Great ambiance and service!“

“Good price and quality. I always order it with the sauce on the side and one time they forgot the sauce and it still tasted amazing without sauce. I often order it without sauce now lol. Other places drench everything in sauce to mask the taste of low quality meat but not here. The meat is great quality and very flavorful on its own.“

“Món nào cũng ngon , sẽ quay lại tiệm .“

“This place has been on my bucket list for a long time so I was looking forward to my visit.

I got the chili chicken leg with fries combo, which was made to order. The dish was beautifully presented and the chicken was perfectly cooked. However, I thought that the seasoning was unexpectedly sweeter than I would have liked. I appreciate that gloves were offered.

Beware that if you dine in, there is only a portable AC that absolutely struggled to perform; I found the temperature inside unbearably hot. I felt bad for the staff, who were fantastic.

I'd come again to try something else, though maybe for takeout instead.“

“Service was A+. Only one person working and he absolutely crushed it. Everything we ordered was excellent. Spicy chicken sandwich was juicy as hell and had just the right amount of heat, though I wish there were an option to turn it up one more notch. Smashburger was fantastic as well; the texture was perfect. Fries are insanely craveable. Will be coming back as soon as possible.“

“French fries are seasoned to greatness! Rice is nice and tangy! The chicken, ohh the chicken… It is fabulous, the chicken is spicy, sour, flavorful, and soft. It’s like curry with lemon and peppers and hot sauce on it. Fabulous. 10/10!!“

“We’ve been obsessed with this place for the past couple months, the food is amazing I highly recommend it! The salito fries, cheesesteak and the mixed platters are my forever go to! If you’re ever close to this place please check it out!! ❤️“

“Surprised to find decent Xinjiang food in Manhattan.

Ding ding fried noodles were quite authentic, just a bit salty. Lamb pilaf wasn’t greasy, which I liked. Lamb skewers were tender and not gamey.

Service was okay but a bit inexperienced — had to remind for water.

Overall, good food, service could be better.“

“Nice chill atmosphere serving Khao Mun Gai, steamed or fried. Classic style with soup on the side. Super nice staff who know the cuisine. Fast service.“

“you think your grandma is in the kitchen. you really won't believe hiw good all the food is.“

“Only the best Chicken Shop in NYC 🥰“

“SERIOUSLY, DO NOT SKIP THE CHICKEN SANDWICH!

This place is honestly one of my go-to's whenever I'm not totally sure what I'm in the mood for but I know I want something really good, and they never, ever let me down. Their wine list is solid too. The staff are always super friendly and on top of things. Everything comes out perfectly seasoned and the portions are seriously generous.

My usual order is the chicken sandwich with a Caesar salad and fries on the side. You can't go wrong with it.“

“The Best place!! The best meatS and seafood“

“One of the best places to get delicious Puerto Rican food!“

“If you're looking for an amazing Korean wings, look no further! This place has nailed it. The chicken itself was incredibly fresh, with a perfectly tender inside and a satisfyingly crispy outside. They were generous with the sauce, ensuring every bite was flavorful and delicious. I also appreciated the small touches, like providing free gloves to keep my hands clean – a sign they really care about the customer experience. The presentation of the wings was also top-notch, making it visually appealing as well as delicious. To top it all off, Han was exceptionally friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!“

“I got chicken over rice for $12 hands down best deal I’ve had in all of NYC as a foodie. It was my first time experiencing halal food so I asked bunch of questions to the guys at the line and they were very chill; they described all the toppings that I pointed to and gave me a GENEROUS PORTION. Chicken was well seasoned and tender, rice was also seasoned and chickpeas and hummus were decently fresh; everything tasted good even on the next day. This fed me for easily two days! It was truly amazing that I can get chicken,rice,fries(shocking for me) and veggie of choice for only $12 was so impressive. I’m definitely going back.“

“Usually it’s good but my rice was pretty dry once. Cheap eat and their service is nice despite being busy. Bring cash to not get up charge 🙂‍↔ A small restaurant so it’s def for to go during peak hours.“

“Absolutely love this place. It’s local for me, Robert is great and welcoming, I stop in often to get chicken tenders THEYRE SOOOO GOOD. They have this peppered vinegar that pairs so well with the chicken too. I THINK they should start packing it in small condiment containers for to go orders that would really make me happy! 8.8/10“

“Love this place! The owner is super cool and the food is delicious! 10/10 taste and customer service every single time!“

“late review but great vibes all around! I stopped in to grab some food and watch the second-to-last Knicks game on my phone, and the atmosphere was awesome. The night crew was friendly, the food came out fresh, and everything was on point.

The manager had amazing energy and was a huge Spurs fan, even though they ended up losing that night 😂.

Food was a solid 10/10, service was great, and the team made it a fun place to be. Keep up the great work. I’ll definitely be back! 🙌🔥🍗“

“the waffles 🧇 were delicious and the toppings were a added pleasure service was friendly and the place was clean I suggest everyone to add it to their bucket list You will be hooked !!!!“

“Amazing meals at reasonable prices.“

“They were short staffed but the owners were so cute and attentive as possible. We had a larger group and ordered several items which were all delicious. The flavors weren’t extremely different from each other, even the spiciest wasn’t that spicy but the crispy outer layer of the chicken was perfect along with the tiny hint of spice. My personal fav was the galbi kimbab. Please support this local business! They even let us turn on the tv to play the Knicks game. What more can you ask for?“

“I've had a lot of chicken sandwiches... some might say too many. Let me just say that Twinz has the absolute best chicken sandwich I've ever had.

Juicy, flavorful, spicy (to your preference), and beautifully textured chicken in every bite. Their sliders are mouth-watering good. I hope they never change their recipe or way they do business. Phenomenal. 10 out 10 food.“

“The food comes out super quick, and is delicious! The staff are super helpful and efficient, providing quick and great service throughout every visit. Whenever I can, I make sure to stop by this specific location just because of the atmosphere! I love to have my lunch at the rooftop.“

“The roasted chicken bowl was tasty, the rice had a good flavor too. The chili lime fries had a wonderful flavor and were nice and crunchy.“

“Love it hot and spicy nice“

“Excellent food! This was some of the best delivery we've had in a long time. Definitely recommend the roasted chicken.“

“First time ordering from here, and it definitely won’t be the last! The food was delicious, the portions were generous, and nothing felt overly greasy. We placed our pickup order ahead of time, and it was ready exactly when promised, which made the whole pickup process quick and easy. Parking was easy too.

Overall, a great experience. 10/10 would order again! Definitely one of the better takeout spots around. Highly recommend if you’re in the area!“

“Delicious! Dine in was awesome!“

“came for the $5 chicken biscuit sandwich special. buttery, salty, sweet, spicy - it was checking off all the boxes. biscuit is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and it also came with a big piece of chicken which I appreciated. delicious!“

“TLDR: Great Korean fried chicken shop in Greenpoint. Spicy crispy wings and definitely try a Korean corn dog.

I was curious to try a few spots in Greenpoint and this was one of them. The chicken is fried fresh so you do need to wait a bit but who doesn't want their chicken made to order?

I'm not a corn dog person at all but I did try the half/half with the potato coating. It was still hot from the fry and the cheese pull on the mozzarella half was very impressive. The beef hot dog half was also good as well. It's finished with powder sugar (as it's mean to be) and it all works pretty well together. Grabbed one for the wife and she was very happy with it.

I ordered the crispy spicy wings and these were very enjoyable. There are not many Korean chicken shops that do this style. I prefer mine sauceless and the battery has a nice kick to it. The skin is crunchy and the chicken is juicy and VERY HOT.

Brought some wings back home and air-fried them the next day, still very delicious. Definitely would check out again if I'm in the area.“

“We need Jollibee here to build in Showlow Az“

“I was walking in the door in the rain with a dress code violation. The host wanted us to correct the issue but Jay the manager explained why the dress code was necessary and let us in anyway. From the moment we sat until the sparklers came out congratulating our anniversary at around 10pm it was an unparalleled experience of delicious food and next-level service. Thank you Don Coqui for a truly wonderful experience, its nice to know there are still restaurants that take serve and quality seriously.“
