    I don't know why folks have reviewed this place so low. I've been coming here for 9 years straight. It's funny I've never reviewed them before but no more delay! They deserve a shout out! Food: is finger licking good and very very flavorful! They have a range of dishes to cater to both vegetarian and non vegetarian palates! Good spice range as per your tolerance! We love their drumsticks and wings, loaded fries and tacos and everything on the menu really! Over the decade, we've managed to have almost everything off of their menu and not once have been disappointed! That's got to mean something and that's why we keep coming back! :) Service: We were yet again served by gracious Connor. Service is great! No complaints at all. Always patience with kids at the table, ready to answer questions on menu especially on newly introduced items! Thank you! Sarah was great too - was happy to correct the spice on one of our dishes that kids had ordered. Thank you! Ambience: sports bar kinda vibes & chatty and good floor plan! Restroom:clean and kept well always! Parking: big lot so never been an issue! Very very open and available any time of the day! All in all, highly recommend! Will always come back and still have the same good things to say about them! Consistency is such a gem of a thing to find among restaurants and they are one of the few ones! :) So thank you!

    Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend this place if you are looking for delicious juicy fried chicken. Perhaps it was because I got this food delivered but my chicken was very dry and overcooked. The Soy Garlic and the Spicy Chicken both tasted pretty similar. Next time, I hope it will be better. The fried rice was delicious! The Kimchi was flavorful! And a PSA to anyone ordering, the chicken drumsticks are much meatier than the wings here! Soy Garlic Chicken: 6/10 Spicy Chicken Wings: 5/10 Kimchi: 8/10 Fried Rice: 9/10

    Newly discovered Korean fried chicken place .. it was amazinggggg!!!! I had chicken wings for two back to back days from here.. I tried three flavors and all were great. The second day I ended up ordering some drums too which were a hit with my kid.. we got the soy garlic, the Korean BBQ and Yangnyeom. There is a subtle difference between all three of them so I honestly didn't know which was which while eating them but can honestly say that ALL of them tasted incredible. The lady who prepped my order was incredibly sweet and really helped me get my order ready. She even helped me get the right sauce as well as clean it up when it got messy. I know I am gonna be ordering from here soon over and over again!

    I ordered a 20 pc strips .... Wtf is this trash
    Melissa A.

    Extremely upset. I ordered 20 pcs strip and other items and they gave me this trash. I don't live near by so yea thanks. I'd like a refund . Update - they assumed I ate this to get my money back and I unfortunately did not. But thank you for this disrespectful comment and no help. Keep your free 10 chicken fingers and I'll never spend another dollar here.

    Italian breadcrumbs on fried zucchini

    A few more visits since my last update, so adding new information for you. I noticed they got new menus during the summer. On one visit, in addition to our regular orders, we tried their japchae. Another time, we ordered the fried zucchini. Granted, they were nice big pieces of zucchini, but they seemed like they were better suited for an Italian restaurant. The seasoning was typical Italian breadcrumbs. I guess as long as you know that's what you're getting, they are fine. Garlic soy wings, rice, & fries continue to be our go to favorites.

    What kind of oil (peanut, vegetable, canola, etc) do they use to fry the chicken?

    Hi kris! For all of our fried items we use soybean oil!

    How does seating arrangements work here? Because all we've ever wanted is a booth but no matter the amount of people we come in and the business of the place.. lol we never get booth.

    The booths are definitely the best. Can't definitely say for sure, but most restaurants are divided into sections and each server is responsible for his/her section (which could include tables & booths). My guess is it's just luck of the draw how…

The katsu chicken with sizzling rice was outstanding, and the Dragon Roll was equally impressive. My only real complaint was the ordering process. Instead of traditional paper menus, everyone at the table had to order individually on their phones. For a large group, it turned into a confusing and somewhat frustrating experience. People were ordering at different times, it was difficult to keep track of what everyone had selected, and because you couldn't hear others placing their orders as you would with a traditional menu, coordinating appetizers or avoiding duplicate items was challenging. It also seemed to create extra confusion for the waitstaff. I can see this system working well for a solo diner or a couple, but for larger groups, I think a more traditional ordering option would make for a much smoother experience. Despite that, the outstanding food more than made up for the inconvenience, and we'll definitely be back.

It's a relatively smaller restaurant and seems to be family run, with friendly staff and good service. Big wine enclosure, a separate bar area. We started out with the quail appetizer, which was a little disappointing. The quail seemed overcooked, which I'd imagine is easy to do with such a small bird, but both the cook and flavor were nothing to write home about. Just too dry. I'm not one who loves to deal with the difficulty of eating something small with minimal meat, but am more than willing to if it's prepared well and tastes great, but this didn't meet either mark. I think a closer to correct cook would have helped a lot. However, the other dishes were very good. The tea flavored duck was prepared VERY well, nice cook and delicately flavored. Liked this one a lot. Some taro there as well for carb/starch lovers - also good. I would definitely order this again. The Salmon Wellington was overall good - I think it could have been a bit more seasoned, but overall, we still enjoyed it. I'd likely not order this again, not because it wasn't good, but I'd want to try other dishes on the menu. The mango panna cotta was overall good. Not special, but solid. We'd come back here again. Nice people, good food, interesting menu.

The sauce it came with was missing something I couldnt put my finger on but i dipped those in the fish sauce and they were so good. Sugar Cane pork skewers were one of our favorites. Well seasoned pork, fish sauce, and pickled veggies. It was like a deconstructed spring roll you put together with lettuce boats. As You Wish chicken and ube sticky rice was our favorite dish. The glaze on the chicken went so well with the sticky rice. Butter Chicken was so flavorful and somehow light. Usually Butter Chicken is heavy but not here. Because we were celebrating a birthday, they gave us a complimentary chocolate cake with vanilla buttercream and some berries. If youre looking for a variety of tasty Asian dishes at one location, good drinks, and good service in the area, give this place a try.

Pho sounded weird with thick noodles, but maybe I need to try that next time. Recommend avoiding the grilled pork and egg roll vermicelli dish.

Just never got around to working a review before. Went early on a Saturday evening recently and was surprised to not have to wait. We split a Bibb lettuce salad that was simple, refreshing and perfect. A tiny pea fritter was the very definition of a small bite, and while it wasn't what I expected, it was crisp and tender. Grilled artichoke was one of the best I have ever had. (Just wish they had been explicit on the menu that it was a half a grilled artichoke). Cocktails were up to their usual high standard -- rye Manhattan for the BF and clarified milk punch for me. I don't get out much these days and I rarely drink alcohol, but is $20 a lot for a cocktail? Or is that normal now? They were great though. BF got the ribeye with morels, which was perfectly cooked and unbelievably tender. I had the burger, which was more exciting than it sounds, dressed with a wild combo of veggies, cheese and bacon while still managing to be harmonious and fresh tasting. Side of fries were crisp and tasty, though not as perfectly hot as I would ideally wish. Because the burger was late coming out, or server (Bernardo I think?) comped us an amazing little dish of vanilla soft serve ice cream with olive oil and sea salt, along with the butterscotch pudding that we ordered. The pudding didn't have the strong butterscotch flavor that I hoped for, but the vanilla ice cream stole the dessert show. OCK isn't a place I can afford often, but I still really like it. I appreciate the creativity of the dishes, the quality ingredients, and the bar. And the old-school shopping center vibe of the Pruneyard is low key festive and garden-like. The interior of the restaurant is kind of standard-industrial modern, but nicely so. Oh, and their glassware is super nice.

We sat on the outdoor patio on a warm summer evening and received friendly and attentive service from Nam. We arrived just before Happy Hour ended and order two of their happy hour cocktails for $10. Mine had a gentle lychee sweetness, a pleasant tequila buzz, and a touch of salt reminiscent of a salted plum soda. My date ordered a tamarind flavored drink that our server described as a bit of a take on tom yum soup. I definitely see that, but it's much more similar to a fruity cocktail than a Bloody Mary. We ordered the pad see ew with beef and the Penang Curry witch chicken. The pad see ew was perfect; the chefs took their time and actually allowed the sauce to caramelize on the noodles, rounding out a pleasant sweetness and optimal soy sauce flavor with deeper caramel and slightly bitter notes. The cooked but still crisp Chinese broccoli offers a textural and flavor balance to the delicate but richly flavored noodles. We opted to go with the grilled beef as our protein, which was a flavorful leaner cut marinated in something like soy, garlic, pepper, and hints of ginger and maybe even a little coconut. The steak was excellent on its own, but a bit with all three elements was perfectly harmonious. The Penang curry was expertly balanced and added variety to our meal. The curry base itself is spicy, fragrant, and has a rich mouthfeel without feeling heavy. The bell peppers once again offered an element of crunch, but with more tenderness than the Chinese broccoli in the pad see ew. I often say that the difference between a good Thai spot and a great Thai spot often comes down to the meat quality, and in this case, the quality of the chicken was excellent. It tasted fresh and the flavors of the curry were well-simmered into it, providing flavor in every bite. Will definitely be returning again. I recommend coming with at least one other person whose down to share, because there's plenty more than just the items we had on this visit that are worth writing home (or on Yelp) about.
