“Went to this location to get my Korean fried chicken and cheese balls yesterday everything was so good! The chicken was super crispy and flavorful, and the cheese balls were perfectly gooey inside. The staff were friendly too, and the service was quick. Definitely coming back again!“

“Thank you for the warning before I burned my face off with the reaper chicken strip 🤓🥺 Food is tasty, staff is friendly, it’s a whole vibe..LOVE IT!! 💗💗💗💗💗“

“Dave’s Hot Chicken is a great place if you love spicy food. The Reaper hot burger is insanely hot but full of flavour and cooked perfectly. The chicken is juicy, crispy, and fresh every time. Portions are good and the taste really stands out. Not for the faint-hearted, but a must-try for anyone who enjoys serious heat and bold flavours.“

“Came with 5 people including myself and the room was extremely spacious. They have English and Japanese songs too if you don't know Korean songs (so no one is left out). They also have a phone in the room where you can place orders and they bring everything in a timely manner.“

“This was my first time here after a friend suggested it, and it was AMAZING! I am always hunting for a place that has delicious sauce and can make that perfect crunchy coating on chicken that stays crispy for hours, and this place IS IT! The food really looks as good in person as it does in the images. I had the honey garlic boneless chicken and mixed with the white rice, it is especially delicious! The secret sauce was great too, very unique and floral and just the right spiciness.

Also worth noting was the fantastic lady who helped us today! I’m assuming she’s the owner/manager…she was so friendly and welcoming, the kind of person you’re happy to see every time. Between the food and her kind energy, we will definitely be coming back for more soon!!“

“Chicken and french toast brunch is amazing“

“I tried their boneless heaven and it was so crispy outside and juicy inside. You get to pick different flavors and my favorite was soy garlic and sweet & spicy. Every bite was so delicious and I would rank this place #1 in bergen county. You really gotta try their wasabi coleslaw! It’s so addictive. Foods were great and staffs were friendly. I highly recommend this place and will definitely coming back for sure!!“

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

“A friend recommended this place and we decided to try them out for my fathers birthday. We ordered their fried chicken spicy and regular, coleslaw, Mac and cheese and mashed potatoes. Everything was fresh. The chicken was seasoned to perfection and was very juicy. Customer service was incredible they even called me hours later to make sure the food met our standards. Highly recommend!“

“So I’ve always heard about Dave’s but never been till today, first off the service I received was beyond exceptional Dylan M took my order not only did he service with a smile he took time to figure out what I like and suggested what I should get and he was right it did not disappoint I also received my order from Angel H who also provided me and my friend service with a smile he told us how to mix are sauce for the best flavor. I truly appreciate top notch service with a smile it’s very rare now a days, the service alone will have me coming back again!!!!!“

“Ever since the new owners took over, this place has really stepped up! The store is spotless, the BBQ chicken is crispy and fresh, and the lady at the front desk is always so friendly. You can taste and feel the positive changes — definitely the best spot if you’re craving fried chicken!“

“For a place in the middle of a block, it just shines through the chicken was absolutely tender fell off the bone season properly. Had a salad with it. That is an artist beautiful put together did take out which was very fast. The rice beautiful the beans were kidney beans and prepared beautifully. You mix the rice and the beans together and use your spoon and you have a wonderful dish. a chicken is spectacular. Got the Kona cola which is delightful and very hard to get goes very well with the meal. Definitely a must place for everybody to go to much better than the Supermarket chickens. Of course they have many other things on the menu and I’m sure that they were just as equally good come on by say hi and the way we go.“

“convenient, flavorful, quick, easy“

“Peppa is open for takeout, clean food awesome“

“Very friendly staff and excellent food“

“I want to say this place was great in food, vibes, and coziness. This is a great definition of a mom and pop restaurant.

Firstly the food.
I had the bulgogi bento. The bulgogi looked, smelled, and tasted amazing. It had the normal bulgogi flavor with that nice hit of smokiness almost like wokhay from Chinese cooking. I loved each bite as the smokiness hit my mouth and nose. The sides of the bento was good too, the dumplings were nice and crunchy with a nice but just a tad bit bland filling, tho to be fair the filling is fairly standard for korean dumplings. The kimichi is what I prefer, which is the more freshly made kind. And the rice was cooked as I expected from a Korean restaurant, which is good. The salads were fine again its a salad, but it was nice that they added kale to the salad adding this bit of variety. The salad dressing was sweet and a bit tangy, mostly sweet which I do like since I have a sweet tooth.

The other bento was the shrimp tempura, I did get one of the shrimp tempura and it was good. The crunchy and breading was nice and you had the shrimp flavor that was still there.

Finally the tteokbokki. It was great. The rice cakes were chewy and soft and the fish cakes were soft and not mushy. The flavor of the sauce was great too, it had this nice umami to it and was the perfect level of spicy to enjoy.

The price for the food was also reasonable. Both bento costed roughly $18 each and the tteokbokki costed $12. They also had an interesting line up of drinks that was nice.

All this aside I want to also note how cozy and welcoming it felt. The lady that was serving us was very kind and caring. She even asked about how the addition of kale to the salad was because it was a new addition that they changed because people liked kale. I really liked that attention to detail. The store was medium sized with some odds and ends here and there but that added to the charm of the place.

I went on a Thursday during lunch time and it had a good amount of business via pick up but I was there alone with the person I was with dining in.

Overall as a Korean I think this place hits better then certain places in mind the food was good and the atmosphere was comforting.

I do regret not trying some of the other menu items I guess I have to return for some more.

For the sake of Google reviews I gave everything a 5. My personal score may be closer to a 4.4 which is high for my own personal score“

“Got this as takeout and was impressed. The chicken and corn were the stars of the show. One piece of feedback for the restaurant is that the salsa verde is labeled incorrectly on the menu. After trying the time I realized it’s not salsa verde, it’s Chimichurri.“

“Excelente servicio muy cómodo lo maximoo“

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

“The absolute most delicious Korean fried chicken! Much better than any other similar options in the surrounding areas. It's an unassuming place that just gets the good spot on!! You won't regret ordering chicken from here ... 😋“

“😃Great food, The chicken is delish“

“My favorite chicken in New York City great spin on Indian Street food and the spice level can go off the chart on that big rowdy sandwich! What are you waiting for get your butt down here and have some of those delicious chicken!“

“Went to the opening of Sheffield store was nice and clean food was excellent staff were friendly especially Matty ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“Restaurant is just beautiful. Right on the water with stunning views of NYC. Menu is diverse but not overwhelming. Guacamole, roast pork, vegan empanadas and avocado salad were all delicious. They have fun cocktails on the menu. Highly recommend.“

“Picked up a Slider, Strip Combo and came with a free drink which is not something I’ve see where so definitely a plus.
Nice ambiance with high ceilings and lights. Very rustic and casual. The hot sauce is really hot so be careful. Should have gone with mild or medium. Mind you i do like hot sauce so when i say hot is hot its really is.. But the sauce had a kick to it.
Would definitely go back. The fries were really good.“

“Delicious halal food. I always get burger combo here and it fills me up. I also love their mousse cake and banana pudding. I love their nacho cheese fries as well. The guy that works there is very nice and excellent customer service here very kind. They also have multiple locations and are open late. Definitely recommend!“

“My partner and I just ate here today it's reeeally heckin' good. The chicken cutlets are huge and the Original spice is just the right amount of sweet, and even the standard fries have delicious seasoning. The sweet potato fries are divine. Their boba is also top tier, with my favorite consistency of boba pearls (super soft). The s'mores mochi donut was really good, too!“

“The place has great curb appeal, and the inside service matches that first impression. This spot has always had the perfect ambiance. Their approach outclasses the competition. I think relatives own this spot and are very welcoming. The experience here is absolute satisfaction.“

“nice place, delicious 😋 food, quality was excellent also it was a friendly experience I really recommend it“

“I was in the Penn Station area today and had a craving for fried chicken. Initially, I was thinking about going to a certain Filipino fried chicken chain, but after checking the ratings, Pollo Camino came out on top. They’ve recently opened a new branch near Penn Station, but I ended up visiting their 8th Ave location instead — a small, single-storefront shop with a simple interior.

I ordered the fried chicken set for $9.99, which came with two pieces of chicken, a piece of bread, one side, and a drink for an extra $1.
• Drink: I went with their Horchata, made with peanuts and vanilla ,milk, without the cinnamon and rice I’m used to. It had a nice aroma, refreshing, and a bit different — in a good way.
• Side: I chose yuca fries, served in large sticks. The inside was dense than potato, with a lightly crisp exterior. Personally, I wasn’t a fan — I’d say skip this and go for another side.
• Fried Chicken: Lightly battered with a noticeable blend of spices and herbs. The meat was tender, while the skin wasn’t the super-crispy kind you’d get from those well-known Louisiana or Kentucky-style chains. Flavor was solid, but here’s an important tip — just like with many fried chicken places, don’t let it sit too long. Once it cools, the saltiness becomes much more pronounced.

Service gets a full 5 stars in the fast-food category — no self-service pick-up here, they bring your food right to the table.

Overall, Pollo Camino is worth trying if you’re around Penn Station. The price is fair, the chicken is flavorful, but choose your side wisely and eat it while it’s hot. Next time I’ll try a competitor for comparison, but for now, my top spot still belongs to Louisiana chain.“

“AWESOME food! I love the atmosphere. And I really love the fact that they serve the best falafel in the city.“

“The chicken was really good,crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. It was well-seasoned and tasted fresh, not greasy. The portion size was filling, and the food came out hot. The service was fast, and the place was clean. Overall, it’s a great spot for chicken, and I would definitely come back!!!“

“Family friendly… nice view“

“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.“

“perks and discounts....presents a fun atmosphere and a bucket of crispy onion fries etc such as calamari at the beach ...“

“I ordered from two good to go, which is an app that gives you discounted meals for less at the end of the night. They gave me liver which I’m not a fan of liver, but I gave it to a friend. I got potato salad. That was delicious a soup with pork in it and vegetables, rice and beans and a vegetable dish with okra and plantains. I will try out their fried chicken soon everything was packaged very good and the place looks very clean. A+

Parking: Very busy street and hard to find parking in“

“It was just delicious my family and I enjoyed 😋👍“

“Family friendly… nice view“

“Chicken is crunchy and delicious! Everything I've tried so far has been good. Glad I finally tried Chicken Galore last month, but, now I'm a little addicted 😉“

“9/27/25

Hubby was looking for something to eat and found Dominican Pica Pollo. Fried chicken with Dominican seasoning, it's so good.

I got the sandwich and hubby got chicken pieces. Have to say I prefer the chicken pieces. The chicken in the sandwich was a little overcooked so it was very dry, even though it is wonderfully seasoned.

Will go back for the chicken pieces yum.“

“I went to the shop on the 6th 46th I met Ayana, was in training but she has been wonderful. 10 stars“
