There is too much waiting, hope the chicken is good. Ordered the golden original chicken.

Thamara N.

We walked in around 8 pm and the restaurant was empty. We got there just in time to place last order for the night. We ordered the tteokboki and small wings of fire. Food was fresh. Tteokboki portion seemed smaller from to go vs dining in.

Small Cheesling Fries

I got this again for Mothers Day the day before and had to come back again because nothing hits like their original chicken. I haven't come back in a while and I love that the flavor and everything has always been consistent. Workers are super sweet and nice here. Plus is also very clean. Only problem is the bad parking lines and how crowded the lot can be.

Standard Korean chicken (not a bad thing) This is a chain restaurant so the flavor, consistency, and price are at a decent standard. This was my first time trying this location and no complaints. I put in my online order a little late (sorry) but when I called to check if they were still accepting orders and were alright with it, they were friendly and cool with it. Thank you staff. The chicken is what you expect it to be, crunchy exterior, juicy interior, and the staple sauces. The chicken mu/ radish is the expected taste as well. Korean chicken is generally on the pricier side and I'm not sure if online orders are priced higher. It was $75.07 for two orders of chicken after tax. Our order was more than enough for 2 people, could probably feed 3-4 if everyone is light eaters, but it feels expensive, so this is more of an indulgence. Parking lot is spacious as it's in the large Rosemead plaza. I can't say much for the interior or dine in experience as I did carry out. Solely based on the availability, convenience of getting the chicken, and flavor and quality of the chicken, this is a safe choice if you're craving it

Soy Garlic Wings
Tiffani C.

Quick service. No wait on a Friday a table for lunch. Radish was complimentary unlike some places that charge for it. Downside was it was just one flavor per order so instead of getting a medium, we had to get two smalls to get two flavors which of course increased the price for the same amount by a couple of bucks. I mean the excuse was cook times were different but couldn't you just put half of one flavor in one thing and the other flavor in another? I mean unless you're saying you only have one fryer which I'd seriously wonder about then. The Galbi wings tasted like wings with Galbi sauce on them. The soy garlic wings tasted like wings with soy garlic sauce on them. Neither of which were super great. Not that they were bad but they were just ok. And this added more to the frustration cause if they were just wings tossed in sauce then you definitely could do more than one flavor at a time. In any case, staff was nice enough, place was spacious and food was standard. Truth be told, I'd come if someone else wanted to come or if it was the only thing around but if not, I'd rather go to another Korean wing spot.

Lunch special 14$
Janny K.

If you love fried chicken, this is a place to try with many options of sauces . If you get 'golden original' its extremely tasty and crispy. I love flavors of secret sauce and gungnam style. I like a kick of spicy . Kimchi fried rice with cheese is so good and amazing...mouth drooling good. Lunch special is 14$ . Comes with a good portion of drink , chicken, sides- fries . My definitely to go place for korean BBQ chicken, quality of meat is very good and tender . Casual fun place to meet up with friends and family. Great server and attentive.

Honey Garlic Wings
Monica N.

The food here is pretty good! My friends and I got the Bulgolgi Poutine, Rose Ddeok-Bokki, and the Honey Garlic Wings. I definitely recommend the honey garlic wings, it's super good! The service was great as well-- our server was so sweet and kind, she made sure we were okay. The place is somewhat spacious, there's lots of tables there! Only thing is that there was a smell right when I walked in, I don't know if this was because the restroom door was open but it was odd... LOL

Crispy Mayo Rice Bowl
Austin W.

One of my favorite lunch specials! I really enjoy the boneless wing lunch combo specifically for dine in. The portions are better and the food is more fresh when you can eat it right out of the fryer. The only downside is that it does take a while for them to cook the food because they cook everything fresh and don't take orders over the phone for dine in. However the staff is always very nice and friendly. The restaurant is also very clean and has plenty of seating.

Half and half
Grace Y.

Good chicken plus claw machines! Service from the first guy was a little meh. The second employee was much nicer. K-pop music and the air inside a bit freezing so had to keep my coat on while eating. Thought the golden chicken flavor was a little off, had a bit of an after taste of slightly overdue fry oil perhaps? Anyway not as good as the same store at the hmart location. Also got the rose ddeok-bokki. My daughter liked it because the added cheesy made it have a lot of cheese pull. Not as chewy as I usually like it but for her it was good.

Christopher G.

bb.q Chicken is always a good choice when deciding on which KFC place to eat for dinner. I went with some friends to eat and drink around the area and surprisingly this place a good hangout spot with it's spacious open seating and excellent service. We got the garlic snow and soy KFC as well as the rose tteokbeokki. Everything was great, but I wish they had a wider selection of soju or offer a somaek tower option. Overall a nice experience over here! 4/5

Soy Garlic Wings
Albert C.

so crispy & perfect! thank you so much bbq chicken for existing!!!!!!! * i highly recommend the soy garlic wing (5/5), cheeseling (5/5), honey garlic (4.5/5), gangnam style (4.5/5) ! & i also tried both boneless which usually isn't my thing, the pieces were so big and generous! definitely try it yallllll

Sandy P.

Soy garlic is the best here. Wings were fried to perfection and coated nicely. Wings were meaty and definetely worth the price tag. It is a plus that their radish comes complimentary with each order!

Gangnam style boneless
Brenda I.

I luv this location ! I drive out of my way to get chicken here . The chicken pieces are bigger ! The staff are great too ! (Don was very cool today.) I got the 8pp Gangnam style boneless this time. It had a great flavor and was recommended by Don Many choices of flavors for your chicken Food came out hot and juicy as I expected . Easy in & out restaurant for a quick bite. * parking can be difficult , especially at high meal times because it's located a mini mall , corner of Rosemead/LasTunas.

Are you guys not offering rôse teokbokki anymore?

Dear valued customer, we offer Rosen Teokbokki. I was told that we were out of one of the ingredients needed. Now the ingredient is ready and you can order the item now. Thanks for your patience.

Are you open on thanksgiving?

Dear valued customer, yes we open on Thanksgiving and the last order we take is 6:30pm on Thanksgiving. Thank you.

What time do you close?? i remember last time i came at 9:37 pm and one of the girls said "were closing already" but on yelp it says 10:00 pm... and please fix the phone too

Dear valued customer, we close at 10pm. However, the last order before closing the kitchen is 9:15pm. Sorry about the confusion.

How much chicken do we get if we order the small boneless?

It's 8 pieces but inside I get like 9 or 10 pieces sometimes. It's the most meat to dollar ratio compared to the wings or half chicken. It tastes just as good as the small wings (flavor wise) IMO. Highly recommend the boneless as it taste just as… 

Do they serve any beer on tap?

Hello Richard... we don't sell draft beers yet and the plan is to begin selling draft beers in a couple of months. Thank you for your question.

Soonheene actually started in Seoul's famous Gwangjang Market where they were known for their pancakes, so I was excited to check it out. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted by Esther (the owner) and her daughter. They both went out of their way to explain the menu and answer all my questions with genuine smiles. That kind of hospitality really sets the tone for a meal. We ordered the Pork Mungbean Pancake, Rose Tteokbokki (creamy rice cakes with fish cake and sausage), Bibim-Naengmyeon (spicy cold buckwheat noodles), and a whole fried chicken split into two flavors. Everything we ordered was delicious and tasty. For half the chicken, I went with the original but added green onion and their special oriental sauce drizzle. The other half was spicy soy garlic. I'll admit, I liked the original better. I second-guessed myself when the owner's daughter mentioned soy garlic was their number one most popular flavor followed by honey butter, but I thought I would be different and try the spicy version. The spice kind of drowned out that garlicky soy flavor, so lesson learned. Next time I am going straight for the soy garlic and honey butter combo. For drinks, we tried the Korean coffee and cold yuzu drink, both refreshing and a nice complement to the food. By the end of the meal, everything was so good that I even found myself asking about catering their chicken for future events. The vibe inside is really comfortable with soft K-pop playing in the background. It is just enough for atmosphere but not too loud, so you can talk easily. The only tricky part is parking since it is in a busy plaza with a lot of other restaurants, but at least it is free. Overall, this was one of the most unique dining experiences we have had recently, made extra special by Esther and her daughter's hospitality. I love supporting family-owned spots like this, and I will definitely be back to try that famous soy garlic and honey butter chicken next time.

The POG Champion was my favorite since ai love POG and you couldn't taste the alcohol. We also played their infused soju game. For $5 a shot you get a die and the number you roll corcorresponds to a flavor shot. My friend and I rolled the same number and each got a green tea soju shot. It was refreshing and delicious. Now for the food: We got the bulgogli fries. It is a large portion of fries and tasty bulgolgi. The perfect runny yolk egg on top completed it. The seafood udon was amazingly delicious. I love udon and never thought it would be so expertly combined with seafood and vegetables. The Korean fried chicken was delicious. We got it with the K mild sauce. The chicken itself was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. The sauce was so flavorful and delivered just the right amount of kick. We also got the garlic chili chicken fried rice. A large portion and the heat and garlic were so good. Great food and service makes this a place to come back to again and again.

While waiting for our order, we were given pickled radishes and the sauce for our mung bean pancake. I really enjoyed the pickled radishes, they were nicely sweet and sour. It took around 10 mins for our order to come out. Mung bean pancake: I absolutely loved the mung bean pancake. It was my first time ever trying it, and it was so crispy and yummy. I love mung beans, so it was great. By itself, the pancake is great, but the sauce that came with it elevated it. It's also a huge portion too! Half chicken with honey butter: This was so crispy and juicy! The honey butter flavor is so unique! I do think it's a bit too sweet for me, but I enjoyed it still. Boneless with soy garlic: I enjoyed the soy garlic flavor more than the honey butter! This was very crispy and tasty too, but not as juicy as the half chicken. Overall, everything was so delicious. All of us enjoyed it! I do prefer bone-in chicken, so I'd probably just get that the next time I come here. I definitely would get the mung bean pancake again too. Highly recommend giving this place a try!

They have a policy of not being able to add on wings if you don't order it in the beginning which they don't always enforce so it's confusing. If you don't order with the deal the wings come out to about $2 per wing so the deal is def good value. However, you order by piece and there's no pickled radish included. Without the deal, the pieces go by multiples of 8 so 8pc,16pc, 24 pc and the radish is included. The guy with the mustache, silver chain, and accent was very friendly and I appreciated his attitude. However. another guy with braids seemed very over his shift or whatever it was, he just seemed very tired. While taking our order, we asked if cucumber salad could be on the side of the chicken sandwich. to which he answered no they cannot bc the portion is different (?) idk why that would matter and maybe it's not even his fault but it was the way he was talking to us. I understand. it's probably pretty busy bc of the promotion and the employees do not get paid that much more to work during the promotion, but i just wish his attitude was more friendly! It's a little off putting and deters me from wanting to visit again. with that being said, the food is good and they are attentive, even if without friendliness. i love their soy garlic sauce, the chicken is very crispy and satisfying. but bf got the chicken sandwich and said it wasn't that great. they have a few games to play like a big connect 4 outside and mini foosball table inside and some other games near the restroom area.
