If you like korean fried chicken in general, you would definitely like this place. I really really like the hot spicy one, even though I thought it would burn the living inside of my mouth. In reality, it was about a 6/10 on spice. It built up a little bit, but they had a nice amount of sweetness along with the gochujang, and I really enjoyed the blend of flavors. If you like the spicy buldak ramen I’m sure you might like this too.
We ordered a lot of the flavors, including curry, snow, garlic, soy, honey, garlic, lemon, and finally the hot spicy one they’re all really good in their own respective ways and even the original chicken itself was really good. If you’re afraid of spice, I think the garlic soy or the curry ones are your best bet. I really enjoyed both of them, but especially the garlic soy. The sauce was sweet, umami, and tangy and allowed the chicken to still be crispy underneath. Better than other restaurants like Bonchon.
The lemon was really nice too. I love the scallions. They had a little bit of brightness to the dish. The lemon scallions were good mixed with the other flavors.
The service was awesome. The lady, who I assume was the owner, was super nice to us along with the waiter. They gave us a lot of time to wait for a whole party to arrive and they gave us recommendations and made sure to advise us on the menu. We had one person in our party that had peanut allergies and she clarified that all the stuff they cook does have a little bit of peanut oil so if you are really allergic to peanuts, I would definitely avoid this place but apart from that you will definitely enjoy eating here.
CM chicken is a franchise if you didn’t know so if you like this spot and are not local to the area, I’m sure there might be a spot close by to you wherever you reside on the East Coast.

When my husband said there was a cm chicken nearby, we had to come here!! This is one of my favorite places to get chicken and this one was really delicious as well! We got a whole chicken and didn’t different flavors, the honey garlic and spicy garlic. As always it was absolutely scrumptious! Veronica was our server and she was amazing as well! So down to earth and easy to talk to! All in all I would give this place 20 stars if it let me!! I had a peach wine to that was really good, I don’t drink but maybe 3 times a year so I’m a lightweight. I got a nice little buzz off of it ;)

This little cozy place is theee most friendly, pleasant, clean and fresh tasting food ever. When I say the food is always tasting the same each time thats exactly what I mean. I had the honey garlic chicken wings which always looks clean and pretty looking not oily and always fresh. Mom and pop are great people and always talking to me. The remaining staff has the same disposition. When you go you wont have any other choice but to tell someone. I told at least 5 and that 5 told 5 more etc etc. Enjoy!

I’m working in the area and wanted to try something new. The staff were warm, friendly and attentive. The service was fast and friendly. I had the Spicy garlic wings, curly fries and a Coke.
The wings were plump and hot. They were fried up just right with a batter was crispy and plump moist chicken underneath. The Spicy garlic sauce was tasty and spicy enough to clear my sinuses LOL. The fries were good. The Coke crisp and fresh.
If you’re looking for wings and want to try a different style then check this place out.

Great food and great service. Our questions about the menu were clearly answered by the waitress, and the vibe was easy going and relaxed.
My husband got the spicy wings, bulgogi mandu. Both were so flavorful and tender. The wings were so crispy.
I got the tteokbokki and the bulgogi. The portions were fantastic, lots of meat that was well seasoned, and the rice cakes were nice and chewy with the chili sauce being so so tasty. I like that it was optional to have cabbage and fish cakes in the tteokbokki, it shows that everything is cooked to order.
Love their fried chicken and the staff. Is always friendly

My first visit at CM Chicken. I ordered the spicy garlic wings with fries and a drink. The wings were spot on😎 fried to perfection, flavorful, and crispy. The sauce was delicious not too spicy and covered the entire wing😎 I know of a few wing spots that could take these pointers 😅 The fries were delicious and the drinks come in bottles. I assuming no refills. This restaurant was pretty compacted but well worth it. My food was delicious and highly recommended.

We just tried here for the first time yesterday, and it didn’t disappoint. I got the spicy garlic chicken tenders and they were great. The food is a little pricey, but it’s one of those “you get what you pay for” scenarios. The tenders were huge, and my order had 5. I was snacking on them into the next day. The staff was very nice. I’ll be going back for sure.
