Korean Chicken
Can you say CRUNCHY CHICKEN? This place does chicken, and chicken and oh yeah, chicken. They offer chicken legs, wings, and breast. Deep fried in very hot oil so it’s super crunchy, and not greasy. You can get your chicken with a Soy/garlic sauce or a hot sauce (which was hot but not blistering). They also serve fries, fried calamari and popcorn shrimp. (also high crunch factor)
The food is made to order, so be prepared to wait a bit. It’s worth the wait. There are many teas to chose from, including a small wooden cask (for each table) of iced tea.
Desert was a creamy lemon sorbet, and a complimentary shot of Espresso martini (served in a shot glass made of ice.) Nice touch.
We had a little bit of everything, fries shrimp, calamari and assorted chicken.
As in many Korean restaurants, the entire staff greets you when you come in. Everyone was exceedingly polite and friendly. They appreciate your business and it shows.
Dishes I tried:
Soy/garlic chicken
Super crunchy fried chicken legs and wings. Three dipping sauces, spicy yet bearable. $17 gets you a large portion, about 15 legs and as many wings.
