    Raymond M.

    Ordered the half & half chicken with garlic soy and plain fried chicken. Both were crispy and juicy, with the garlic soy being sweet and savory. The plain fried chicken was simple and cooked well. The friend chicken doesn't feel heavy or too greasy. The staff was friendly, though they were a bit stingy with the utensils and napkins. They have a salad bar, but it feels monitored, as staff watch to make sure you're only grabbing what you'll eat. Plenty of parking, but stalls are tight and on the smaller side. Indoor seating is limited, so it's better suited for takeout or a quick dine in.

    Chicken Wings
    Dharma M.

    A restaurant specializing in Korean Fried Chicken (KFC) that has been established for many years. It was very popular back then and known for its unique ordering style, where customers had to purchase a certain minimum amount. The restaurant is famous for its double-fried chicken and offers a variety of sauces to choose from. This was my second visit. I ordered chicken wings to go with mixed sauces for takeout, and the fried chicken was still crispy, flavorful, and yummy. The service was quick and efficient, and overall it was a satisfying experience.

    Been coming here for years and the fried chicken is still really good. Crispy, juicy, and always hits the spot. But honestly, the place doesn't feel the same anymore. Seems like there's new management and the atmosphere was pretty uncomfortable during my last visit. There were a lot of rules and the staff was being really rude to other customers for no reason. They weren't rude to us personally, but seeing that definitely changed the vibe. Food is still solid, but the experience isn't what it used to be.

    Back in the day, this was the place to eat. Your meal used to come with free rice and spicy sauce, and it felt generous and welcoming. Since the change in ownership, though, the place feels stingy and cheap, which really leaves a bad taste in your mouth. As for the food: the chicken is still excellent. Great flavor, juicy, and served hot straight out of the fryer. Easily a 10/10. The salad bar is basically the same, but now they'll charge you if you leave food on your plate, which feels unnecessary and petty. It's honestly sad to see how far this place has gone downhill -- from a family-owned spot to an owner who nickel-and-dimes customers for everything. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if they tried to charge you for breathing their air. That said, the service itself was okay. The ambiance has also changed. It's been modernized, but I personally miss the old look with the pictures -- it had more character. At the end of the day, I'd still recommend this place if you're coming strictly for the chicken. Just be prepared to deal with a very stingy owner.

    We came here around 5 pm when they opened for their dinner service. It's in a plaza so there is plenty of parking. When we came, there was one other family there besides me and my girlfriend so it was actually not busy at all. Someone points us to a table and brings us menus at the table we sat at. When they take your order, they bring you disposable gloves, napkins, and plates to go to the salad bar (dine in only). For food, we got kimchi for a side, pretty good tasting kimchi. We got fries as well, just normal crinkle cut fries, nothing too special but is a good side dish. We got the combination chicken, pretty sure it's a mix of sweet sauce, soy sauce, honey, and original. Don't know if I'm completely correct but I'm guessing. Overall they were all so good, huge pieces of chicken by the way. The place is pretty average for the size and when it gets busy I could see how the wait times could be pretty heavy. Great for late night drinks with friends or so. Overall, this is a great Korean fried chicken spot, I recommend for people to check out if you want some!

    Great OG spot in the South Bay Large portions for a fair price (~$30 and serves two) with serve yourself veggies. Not all flavors are equally good, but I really like their sauces ones. Chicken was juicy inside unlike some other KFC places that make it really dry or sticky.

    I finally tried 99 Chicken and fried chicken is one of my guilty pleasures. This Korean fried chicken had a nice light batter and wasn't oily at all. We got the sauces on the side. The honey was thick and sweet which I liked, but my friends liked the spicy sauce more. There was a bunch of rules about the salad bar that I didn't pay attention to and I must have not broken any rules since nobody yelled at me! I will definitely comeback here to feed my fried chicken craving.

    This place has been on my radar for a while. I wish I enjoyed it more. The restaurant has a parking lot in front but it does get really busy. There are a couple tables inside but if you have a large group you might need to wait a while. If you dine in, you get access to their unlimited salad bar. It includes rice, radish, broccoli, salad and some other stuff. You can't take stuff from the salad bar as part of your to go container if you have leftovers. You can also get stuff from the salad bar after they give you paper plates. After we ordered it took about 5-10 mins to get our food. They give you disposable gloves as well. Honey garlic chicken: 2/5, The chicken wasn't super crunchy. They also give a mix of drum sticks and chicken wings. Their sauce didn't have a strong garlic flavor. It just tasted sweet. I also wish there was more sauce. Korean sauce chicken: 2/5, the waitress described the flavor to be similar to gochujang. We got mild so it wasn't spicy at all. It had a slight sweetness. The overall flavor was just okay but it wasn't my favorite. These wings had more sauce but the wings were not crispy. Not sure if I'll be back. I think there are better Korean chicken spots in the area

    Half honey garlic and half soy sauce
    Megan C.

    What I got: Honey Garlic Chicken : 3/5 Soy Sauce Chicken : 3/5 So I went here after going to the climbing gym, and I decided to try this place because my friend recommended it to me. So that being said, I felt like the flavoring for the place was all right. I think I prefer bbq chicken or vons. But that being said, the crispiness of the chicken was very light. It didn't feel super oily, which was surprising because it's fried chicken. The service was pretty good. I really enjoyed this place because they have a salad, rice and radish bar. Honestly, I'd come back for how much radish I was able to get. The ambiance was very casual. Nothing to write home about. I would prefer to just take out the chicken and eat it at home. But then you wouldn't get the unlimited radish. Would I come back again? Yeah, I think so, but I think I would first bring up bbq chicken and vons first lol

    My friends and I came on Thursday during lunch, and we were seated right away. Chicken was good; my favorite flavor was the Honey Garlic. The original is quite bland like other reviews said. I just wish they can add more seasonings to it. Salad bar was also decent. I'm a bit disappointed that the complementary rice isn't available anymore. It's $3 a bowl fyi.

    Ana B.

    The chicken wing sizes are decent. My partner and I got full after 3-4 pcs so the 10 pc is perfect for two. Theres unlimited rice and salad bar. Ketchup lovers should choose the red sauced flavors. I wasn't really a fan and the honey chicken is literally just fried chicken drizzled with honey. Would probably come back for the fried chicken to-go and make my own sauces at home.

    Combination Chicken
    G S.

    Came on a Friday afternoon around 5. There was only one family in there other than us. We ordered the combination chicken combo it was delicious the spicy one was my favorite. The rest were crispy and delicious. They give you gloves and complimentary sides when you eat inside. The fries were also good. The ambiance was good they were sweet it felt like I was eating in someone's house. Definitely would come back for more

    Plain fried chicken
    David C.

    Hands down, one of the best fried chicken in the area, the chicken is large, seasoned well, always crispy and pipping hot, like literally what fried chicken is about. This is definitely portioned for take out if seating for one however it's definitely for a family night. Place is small with just enough seating

    Ask the Community - 99 Chicken

    Do they offer complimentary sides when you dine in or order take out?

    Starting June 10 they will be offering the mini buffet area. As of now they will provide you a bowl of rice or a side of salad

    Do they discontinue the Kimchi soup?

    Yes

    Is 99 Chicken free range, organic, and/or air chilled?

    None of the above

    Do they have the kimchi soup back?

    No, I don't think so. It might have gone forever.

    Does the 5pc per person rule still apply with the new owners?

    I believe so. The last time we were here we were asked to order 5 for each person and that was only a few weeks ago. Even under the new management food is still bomb dot com so the 5pc per person doesn't usually bother us ?

    How does the chicken taste with the new owners? I'm coming from Sacramento and I don't wanna disappoint myself. I'm already disappointed by the reviews.

    I've been going for years and still like it.

    After the change in ownership does the chicken still taste the same?

    I'm so sad they change owner. Usually when I order my soy chicken Togo it would still be crispy by the time I get home. This time it was so soggy. I ask the lady on the phone to please put a note to make it extra crispy too.

    Does anyone know if ownership just changed?

    Yes it recently changed beginning February 1st.

    Disclaimer: Ordered on doordash…read more The flavors of the chicken were carried through with the chimichurri sauce. Seasoned well. The roasted potatoes were cooked perfectly with soft texture when biting. The broccolini in the sesame sauce was sweet balancing the meal overall.

    Food Rating: 3/10 Price: 7/10…read more Ambiance/Service: 7/10 Overall Rating: 5.7 Came here at 7pm on a Sunday, and there was plenty of seating inside. It's mostly self service. You order at the counter, get a number, pick where you want to sit, and they bring the food to you. Even before my food came out, I noticed a weird, unpleasant sour smell in the air while sitting down. The food came out pretty fast and the prices were pretty fair, but overall the food quality wasn't great. Grilled Grass Fed Steak - $22.99 Rating: (3/10) It hurt a little when I ordered and the cashier at the front didn't ask me how I wanted the steak cooked. They even ask at Chili's how you'd like your steak done. The steak was cooked medium (a bit overcooked for my liking) and was pretty dry toward the side pieces. I also think there needed to be a bit more seasoning variety than just salt and pepper, since it tasted pretty bland. The fries were okay, a bit too salty and under fried. A lot of the bites I had were filled with massive salt crystal chunks. But the real meal and dish killer was the brussels sprouts. First off, it looked nothing like the pictures on the website. The brussels sprouts were way undercooked. The balsamic dressing was unpalatable, purely a bad balsamic vinaigrette, overwhelmingly harsh with a throat burning sourness that overpowered the dish rather than balancing it. It also tasted like sugary corn syrup mixed with harsh vinegar, coating veggies in a sticky, cloying film. Looking back, that pungent vinaigrette could be what I was smelling in the air before my food even came out.

I walked in, relieved to discover it was a poke spot, and decided to have lunch there. I ordered a bowl with white rice as my base and two proteins: tuna and yellowtail. To my surprise, I could add five toppings, so I went with crab meat, mango, cucumber, edamame, and scallions. I don't recall the exact sauces or sprinkles they put on, but the bowl was enormous--which explained the nearly $30 price tag! I grabbed a seat by the window overlooking the parking lot. The chair was a bit snug, but I didn't mind as I dug into my fresh, flavorful poke bowl. Everything tasted incredibly fresh. The staff member helping me was new, shadowed by the manager as he assembled my order, but he did a great job! After another grueling 90-minute Bikram Yoga session, I debated between returning here or grabbing Taco Bell, which was much cheaper and in the same shopping center. Despite the price difference, I chose the healthier option. Since the restaurant was packed and I was eager to get home, I decided to order to go. This time, a young woman helped me build a bowl with half purple rice and half white rice. Purple rice is a highly nutritious whole grain, so I was eager to try it. It had a ougher texture to chew than white or brown rice, but I still enjoyed my lunch. For protein, I chose tuna and spicy tuna. I rattled off a long list of toppings before realizing I'd already hit the five-topping limit. I wished I could swap one of the mangoes out, but instead, I paid the extra $1.25 for an additional topping. The young woman was efficient, and I was out of there in no time. Overall, I'm a fan of this restaurant. I can definitely see myself coming back after future Bikram Yoga sessions in the 'torture chamber.'

Our family of three each chose our bowls and watched with amazement how it would fill the grains and other bowl components in the robot style assembly. Our bowls were finished up by someone that added the additional touches. Each of us loved the flavor combinations on our bowls. I love that it had the macros on there so we could choose the best option for our nutrition needs. The trash was a bit full and definitely needed attending and I wasn't crazy about the basically no interaction from the staff. It just felt kind of cold but the food and concept are pretty awesome. We'd love it if you made it to "off strip" areas of Las Vegas.

Not all the dishes here are five stars, but if you know what you're doing, it's five stars. I prefer the five-spice fried chicken bento box.

It's flavored well and salty, but not too salty. I would totally skip the pork belly unless you just love eating fat. I find that it is pretty much all fat and very little actual pork meat. The beef brisket stew is a hit or miss. Sometimes it is also too fatty, and once in a while, it is okay. Probably safer to stay away and just go with the five-spice fried chicken.
