Totally recommend! Incredible and unique fried chicken. We had the snow onion original (delicious white savory/sweet sauce with mild onions on top) and their signature tikkudak chicken (fried and then grilled over charcoal, giving it a nice smokey taste). During the couple (well-worth) minutes that we waited for our take-out order, we were very entertained by the super nice lady that works at the register (wish I got her name!). She was telling us all about the history of CM Chicken and food trends in Korea. She even treated us to a yummy small yogurt drink brand from Korea while we waited and listened to K-pop. Excellent service paired with excellent fried chicken, must try!!!

I have tried many Korean fried chicken spots on the UES, and this spot is by far the best. We got 10pc wing and 4 pc drumstick for two people. We had leftovers, which came out amazing in the air fryer the next day. The owners are also very kind and friendly. It was very busy, and I had been waiting for a long time, but they gave me extra wings and free soda. I will def be back. This is my new goto fried chicken spot.

I usually don't write reviews, I've ordered twice so far and both times the chicken was exceptional. I ordered the original plain fried chicken and it was incredible. The meat was tender, the coating has an addictive crunch and a very mild bite. Dont know how they do it, but most importantly, it was greaseless. I kept going back for 1 more piece until I was stuffed.The coleslaw was a bit disappointing with only white cabbage and on the sweet side. Could do with some carrots and red cabbage for appearances and half the amount of sugar.A warm welcome to the neighborhood and I'll be ordering whenever that fried chicken hankering pops up.

At first, I was hesitant to try CM chicken because I thought the prices were high. I am happy I decided to try it out and support this place because the food is FANTASTIC. I've gone twice and the snow onion chicken is delicious. Seems like it's a mom and pop type shop so I will continue to support. Highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic korean fried chicken. Ive been looking for a decent spot for fried chicken / wings in the neighborhood and this new spot is hands down the best.I ordered takeout and it was ready within 15 minutes. The staff were nice and gave us extra ttoboki in our order. The Garlic Soy flavor chicken was incredible and ttoboki was delicious. Can’t wait to try the other flavors next time.

This fried chicken is seriously good!! I tried the soy spring onion chicken tenders and it was some of the best fried chicken I’ve ever had! It was the sauce was a little sweet, and pretty spicy, and the chicken was good quality white meat tenders, which had the perfect crunch. The preserved radish balanced out the spiciness nicely. I can’t wait to come back and try more from their menu!
