    The first bite I took of these chicken wings reminded me of my childhood for some reason. I couldn't pinpoint it out, but the taste of it gave me a blurry flashback of someone's cooking. But my oh my this place was SO GOOD! My family and I ordered a regular, a soy garlic, and the popcorn chicken rice bowl flavored as sweet and spicy. Sides were fries and veggie sticks and dipping was ranch. I really loved how they breaded the chicken. Their breading taste felt like home and memory. It wasn't all too hard, like you'll bite a battering clump but it wasn't burnt or hard, it was just right. I really would like to know how they make their batter for their wings because it's just so dang good! And the gentleman who took our order, not sure if he was the owner, but he was friendly and welcoming. Best Korean chicken wings I've had so far here around town.

    I've been reading great yelp reviews about Basak Chicken. I decided tonite was the night to give the restaurant a try and so glad I did!! I live right down the street so it's super close by. I think when you go to a new place it's truly hard to decide what to get/order! Tommy at the front counter was super helpful! I always say "what is the favorite"? He said the sauce is the sweet & spicy and the soy garlic! I decided to get the chicken & rice bowl (popcorn chicken) with the sweet & spicy sauce which was so very good! The bowl is huge! Perfect meal for two! But you know me, I could not stop with one entree. Therefore I ordered my husband's favorite chicken wings. They were Gigantic and super duper crispy with the soy garlic sauce which came with baby carrots, and celery, along with a cup of ranch dressing nice touch did not have to pay extra for the ranch! Well, I couldn't help my self, I had to order the Beef Corn Dog! Tommy asked me "do you want it with ketchup, mustard, and sugar"? I said "Sugar"? Did I hear you correctly? OMG!!! It was our dessert, although it needs a bigger Frank in the decadent homemade batter! Delicious! You haven't had a corn dog until you try it Korean Style!!! Tommy thank you for all your great recommendations I can't believe you've been in your establishment for almost a year and I haven't been here sooner!!! See you again soon! I'll be telling all my Friends all about your chicken and sauce!!!

    Don't usually give 5 stars for "fast food" but this place has nice seating, super friendly service, & bellylicious food! If you like fried chicken you'll love it. Big, juicy, & crispy chicken. Flavorful sauces without the feel or taste of grease. My hubby wasnt sure about the sweet cheese fries and it ended up being a HIT along with the dumplings.

    Still so amazing. Such friendly service and delicious food! This time we enjoyed tenders (k spicy and soy garlic) and onion fries (fries with yummy onion seasoning!) and a beef corndog. Recommend ranch if you're going spicy with the tenders as k spicy brings some heat. Quite possibly the best corndog I've ever tasted. Keep up the amazing work! We you!

    Korean Corn Dog

    If your taste buds are begging for the ultimate Korean fried chicken experience, stop everything and make your way here trust me, your life will never be the same. I've been here at least a dozen times since they opened, and each visit reaffirms why this spot is in a league of its own. Let's talk about the essentials. The 8 piece Sweet and Spicy wings paired with the Spicy Curry fries is a combo that should be illegal for how good it is. The wings? Absolute perfection. Sweet meets heat in the most balanced way, with seasoning that's bold but never overpowers. The crunch is everything seriously, it's the kind of crunch that makes you pause mid bite just to appreciate it. Inside, the meat is tender, juicy, cooked to utter perfection, and coated in that magical glaze that makes your fingers taste like a dream. These wings aren't just good they're an experience. Now, the Spicy Curry fries oh. my. gosh. These are the side that steals the show. That powdered curry seasoning hits you with earthy, aromatic richness and just the right hint of heat. Each fry is like a mini flavor explosion. My only teeny critique? Occasionally the fries get a smidge soggy. A tiny detail in an otherwise near perfect snack. And if you're feeling extra indulgent, do not, I repeat, do not skip the Korean corn dog. Two options sausage stuffed or gooey mozzarella. I am forever loyal to the mozzarella. It's massive, overflowing with stretchy, melty cheese that gives you pure satisfaction with every bite. The exterior is golden and crispy, the perfect vehicle for that sweet-savory dance of ketchup, mustard, and sugar. Imagine a churro had a lovechild with a cheese stick that's what you're biting into. Whether you're popping in for a quick snack or committing to a full meal, this place delivers every single time. Generous portions, bold flavors, and that kind of comfort that makes you already planning your next visit before you leave. If Korean fried chicken is your jam (and let's be real, whose isn't?), this is the spot that will make your taste buds sing and your foodie heart happy.

    Korean chicken wings keep coming up on my recommendations so finally had the chance to try them out. Everyone was super friendly at Basak-- we were greeted by multiple staff members. The location is small -- and it's kept very clean. I let the employee know that this was my first time trying it out and he gave some recommendations. I liked the flavors --the Galbi was really good. The chicken wings are really crispy and full of flavor. We changed things up and ordered sweet cheese seasoned fries with homemade ranch--10/10. Overall it was a good change to the "traditional " wing spots-- I'd come back and try out a couple more flavors.

    Open for less than a year and Basak is changing the chicken landscape in this area. At lunch on my visit, this counter service restaurant is busy. Stick with the crispy chicken and try all the flavors. Sweet n Spicy and the Soy Garlic are legit and flavorful. My favorite sides that I recommend is the Mandu and Potato Salad.

    Love this place and we always get the chicken bowls . Great portions and price . Amazing flavors and service is quick and always friendly. Nice music in the background too! Thanks Basak. A must have when in the Sparks area .

    Honest take out review: Eat it at the restaurant but take it home if you must! The winner is the rice bowl: 5/5 for the whole experience! (Tap in for the food review down below) Some heavy hitters and some recommendations for your next order of Basak! They came in strong with some great phone skills, and it was very lively! I would say if you can, sit and eat your food as it was delicious bringing it home, but I'm sure it would've been better in the restaurant. -chicken rice bowl w/sweet & spicy: 5/5 WOW!!! My fiancée ordered this bowl and it has that everything touch to it. Savory, sweet, spicy, an umami flavor from the MSG, and mayo that's complemented by the greens for a fresh bite... absolutely breath taking of a dish! Plus service size is more than shareable for you if you're not too hungry. Otherwise this is the winner! -wings 4 w/sweet cheese: 5/5 Talk about a wing that packs a punch!!! Juicy and fresh, crispy enough to withstand the moisture from the steam on the way home... and a flavor... that says it all. I wasn't expecting a flavor to send me on a rollercoaster of an adventure. Savory but sweet, with a spicy that is dry to the bite but transforms as you combine it with the chicken. It's a great dry rub that's complemented extraordinarily by a delicious wing. K-radish: 5/5 -call it the palette cleanser, fresh and just a pickled bite you can use to accompany any bite. -k-potato salad/ 4/5 Interesting flavor that's oddly refreshing, and neutral in a smooth way... this was one of the more interesting bites of the night as you get a load of potatoes and egg in the mix, but you're met with some veggies that give a bite and a fresh nature to the dish that somehow works? It was good though. -corn dog (cheese&sausage) 3.5/5 Hear me out... this has a lot of potential for a 4.5/5 for me. Next time I will just be ordering it without the sugar and add the ketchup and mustard on the side. This gave me a very funnel cake vibe as you bite into the batter. The ketchup and sugar just add different depth of flavor that while unique, didn't mesh 100% to give you that bite you're looking for. The cheese pull though was amazing! So definitely a lot of potential for a follow up! Just know if you eat it fresh. It'll probably be a lot better than taking it home. So give it a try if you're daring. Overall, definitely recommending to friends for their chicken rice bowl! Deliciousness!!

    Sweet cheese wings

    Crunchy, juicy chicken! I ordered 2 chicken bowls ($12 each), 4-piece sweet cheese wings ($7.50), kimchi ($5.50) and 2 k- beverages ($3 each). The chicken bowls were huge! They were filled with crispy chicken, rice, greens, mayo and your choice of sauce. We did the sweet and spicy and k spicy. Both were great! The sweet cheese wings was really interesting and probably my favorite flavor! It has a thin super crunchy batter and tender juicy chicken inside. Amazing and unique flavor! The kimchi was good and the so were the drinks. A little pricey for small sides/drinks, but still yummy. The restaurant is small with minimal seating. It is super clean and has a cool vibe with Korea music in the background and posters matching the theme. The staff was also very friendly. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and they were very helpful. They seemed genuinely happy we were there. 10/10 for crispy chicken, flavor and service!

    Chicken Wings (8 Pieces), K-Potato Salad (8oz), K-Radish (8oz)

    One of the better Korean restaurants in town! I think Basak Chicken has quality-tasting chicken with some flavorful sauces. The place has a few tables to sit down and enjoy the food. The staff are friendly and quick with the order. I and my friend ordered the 8 piece chicken wings with the Soy Garlic and Cheese sauces. Both were very good, though I was much more impressed with the soy garlic. The meat was tender and hot. The radishes added a good sour contrast to the sweet and deep wing flavors. The potato salad was okay. Its texture was too grainy and mushy than I wanted. Otherwise, I will definitely come back. I was impressed with the food here. Total order was around $30-$35 for two people.

    Finally!! A Korean chicken joint in Reno/Sparks!! And it's locally owned! The pictures I took of the wings don't do it justice, because in real life their chicken is large, juicy and perfectly crispy. They also drench it in sauce so every inch is covered so no need for a dipping sauce. They have several flavors to choose from such as: garlic soy, K spicy, K soy, spicy soy sweet and spicy (yangnyeom) and dry rubs such as sweet cheese and spicy curry. I got a 20 pieces of wings with these flavors: garlic soy, K soy and sweet and spicy. I don't have the highest tolerance for spicy, but the sweet and spicy wasn't spicy at all for me. The other two sauces also had a touch of sweetness to them, but it didn't take away from the soy sauce flavor. We also had the Korean corn dog and the sweet cheese seasoned fries that both weren't photographed because they ended up in our stomach long before we got home. The Korean corn dog can be accessorized with ketchup, sugar and mustard, but is honesty good on its own already. The seasoned sweet cheese fries were good, but was a dry rub which I wasn't expecting. Overall everything was great, but next time I may not buy a 20 piece because the wings were large. Can't wait to try out different flavors next time!

    First time at Basak Chicken a few days ago and I liked it alot. Shame when I got home however I dropped my Sweet Spicy Chicken Rice Bowl :( From what was left of it...the flavor was delicious and I'll have to go again. Fritzie and I would also enjoy their 8 piece K-Spicy and Garlic Soy chicken in which the flavors were great, but I would've loved a bit more crispiness to their chicken. I have standards in 2025. :-D Stopping by their restaurant, it was pretty nice. The dining area was small, cozy, good for lunches and 2-4 party dining experiences and the cashier and who I believe was the manager was courteous bringing to me my order. Overall I'm happy to have been able to try this spot for the first time. Definitely try their Rice Bowl! It was delicious with crispy chicken in the bowl with a hint of spice, a creamy mayo sauce, onion and added ingredients... Man I really wish I didn't drop it.

It's so disrespectful and no life, let alone a cop's, be shit on by people that have NEVER served in their life. There are consequences to your actions and I hope she sees that now.

It feels like the kind of place that works best if you're bringing kids, letting them play in the arcade, and making it more of an outing than just grabbing food. That said, the service was pretty slow. Even though it didn't seem very busy, it took around 30-40 minutes to get the food after calling it in, which felt a bit long. The pizza itself reminded me a lot of Shakey's because it use to be one, which was nostalgic and pretty good overall. But for the price, it did taste a little on the cheaper side and wasn't especially exciting. The biggest disappointment was the mojo potatoes. I was looking forward to them, but they came out greasy and tasted like they may have been cooked in older oil, so I didn't really enjoy them. Overall, Boulevard Pizza is decent if you're going for the family/arcade experience, but I probably wouldn't think of it as a great takeout or delivery-style pizza place. The surrounding area also feels a little rough, which may be worth keeping in mind depending on when you go.
