Chibab has been on my radar for a bit, and I finally got to try it when my parents brought it over to my house. Big portions, beautiful plating, and they're on DoorDash. My wallet and waistline are in danger. CHICKEN SANDWICH DELUXE: 5/5. Substantial. Fresh. Clean. Not greasy. This is like if Chick-Fil-A invested in herself, hit the gym, blocked her ex, and became an absolute baddie. CHIBAB: 4/5. CHI for chicken, BAB for rice. They forgot the soy garlic sauce, which we asked for on the side, but it was still good. CHICKEN SALAD: 5/5. Yes, this is essentially popcorn chicken with salad. It's called BALANCE. The honey mustard sauce was light and creamy. TTEOKBOKKI: 5/5. Perfect texture on the rice cakes. And the sauce was actually spicy instead of just sweet. read more

Amazing food, affordable price, good service. Went in for a chicken sandwich in medium spice and a deluxe chicken sandwich in super spicy. The combo for the regular was $12 and deluxe was $14. Chicken was sooo crispy and good. Their secret sauce was great too. Fries were crispy and salted ( though I wish they used other seasoning too) It is a small place, only 4-5 tables inside and 2 tables outside. Felt very homey but I could tell this is a local favorite. They had a lot of foot traffic for take out orders. I believe it was the owner - she made us feel welcome and was attentive. She made sure we were enjoying our food. She suggested we try the wings next time, which we will! read more

Food was good, very kind staff and clean small spot. Should check them out. Noticed a lot of take out.

We recently checked out Chibab and loved discovering this small family-run Korean fried chicken spot tucked away in La Habra. You can really tell they put a lot of time and care into perfecting their recipes. We ordered the Chicken Tender Combo, Chicken Sandwich, Lemon Pepper Wings, Soy Garlic Wings, Crispy Bomb Fries, and the Chibab Bowl. The chicken was super crispy and flavorful, and you could hear that crunch with every bite. The lemon pepper wings had a great seasoning and the soy garlic wings were perfectly balanced between savory and slightly sweet. The Crispy Bomb Fries were also a must-try. The atmosphere is casual and welcoming, and it feels good supporting a local small business that clearly cares about quality and the community. Definitely worth stopping by if you're in the area and craving Korean fried chicken. We'll be back! read more

Two years and about 50 orders later, I'm back to give another well-deserved 5-star review (my first time ever doing this)! They are incredibly consistent, and the food comes out perfect each and every time. As a fried chicken lover for decades, I've never come across another place that delivers this level of quality so consistently. The chicken is always fresh, crispy, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. We absolutely love this place, and my 6-year-old says it's his favorite food ever! read more

We love Chibab! The fingerlings and chicken wings are always fresh and crispy. Never greasy. The original and original spicy are good on their own and don't need any special sauces. The saucy wings and fingerlings are also really good and stay crispy. read more

Really good quality food for a decent price! Loved the soy garlic and the cheese balls were pretty good. The place itself is pretty small so it is more of a takeout spot. The owner was super friendly and made sure we enjoyed our food read more

Chibab Korean Fried Chicken - Soy Garlic wing combo with pickled radish and a side of cheese balls - Korean Near Me - La Habra, California

I can absolutely see why this place has a 5 star review - this has got to be the one of the best (if not the best) damn Korean fried chicken I've had! The crispiness of each wing is insane and the flavors are so umami. We ordered the lemon pepper and soy garlic which seemed like the most popular items and both were so amazing! The lemon pepper had a perfect tanginess and the soy garlic was a blast of flavor. We devoured these wings so fast. The side of fresh radish paired well with the wings :) read more

Lemon pepper wings and soy garlic wings were all really good. Flavor is good and not too sweet. I like how the lemon pepper wasn't dry. We got the 50 piece wings deal and it was more than enough for 3 adults. Probably better for 4 people. We called ahead and ordered for pickup. Workers are really nice. read more

I was waiting for the right time to enjoy some good chicken, so I brought my entire family here for dinner. Once again, the owner welcomed us with her warm smile, which always makes the experience even better. We ordered the half-and-half (sweet & spicy), waffle fries, the deluxe chicken sandwich, and tteokbokki. The fried chicken consistency is unbelievable -- just as perfect as the first time I came. Super crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and full of flavor. This time, though, my eyes were on the sandwich. It comes with two large tenders, coleslaw, lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and sauce -- and honestly, it's one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had. The bun is soft (I believe it's a potato bun), which makes it even better. The tenders are extremely crispy -- not soggy like some other places -- and the portion size is generous. You can literally hear the crunch when you bite into it. The sauce is very similar to Cane's sauce -- the one everyone loves -- and it pairs perfectly with the crispy chicken. The tteokbokki tasted just like the street vendors in Korea. My mom loves tteokbokki and really knows authentic flavor, and she said this one is even better than many local spots. That says a lot. The waffle fries were crispy -- unlike Chick-fil-A, which can sometimes be soft. I highly recommend dining in so you can enjoy everything fresh and at its best. Honestly, I'm not going anywhere else for Korean fried chicken. read more

I'm a regular shopper and costless and decided to finally stop by here for lunch. So glad I did. The chicken is juicy and tender. I loved my sandwich. The fries are also really good. The lady who served me was very friendly and inviting. I will definitely be making some more after shopping stops there. read more

My mom has been coming here for a while and she loves it, so I decided to get some carry out to surprise her. We got a whole soy garlic chicken. The chicken was really good! The portion size is generous and the chicken quality is great. I like how there were some boneless whole pieces of thigh/breast in the mix. The taste was really great too. Also, the lady who took my call and was working the counter was so nice!!! Over the phone, I asked if I could get radish and coleslaw, but she politely let me know only one is included; however when I went to go pick up, she told me she included both this time, which I really appreciated!!! read more

Consistently good! We love their Korean fried chicken here. The chicken comes out hot, fresh, and crispy! Seating is limited, but they do have some seats outside. Each order takes about 15min since they prepare it fresh. read more

1st time trying this place and it was amazingly delicious. Ordered their Korean fried whole chicken to share with friends. Chicken was moist on the inside and crunchy on the outside with good texture and seasoning. My favorite was Chibab bowl with chili mango & ranch. This bowl had popcorn chicken pieces with corn and coleslaw over the bed of white rice. I really like their chili mango ranch sauce. This sauce was delicious and great combination with chicken and coleslaw. Fries were good too and i didn't smell the oil from it. Even though it was a busy lunch time, they gave us our foods within 25mins or so. But it was worth a wait. Small family owned shop with limited seating but delicious flavors and delicious Korean style fried chicken. Highly recommended! read more

Been hearing great things about Chibab - stopped by to grab some chicken on a Thursday afternoon for lunch. Called in to order for a quick pick up (or you can place an order online). Tried the 20 pc lemon pepper wings ($32.99) and half soy garlic chicken ($15.99). The lemon pepper is slightly different than a normal lemon pepper like at a Wingstop with a more asian-infused twist. I tasted butter but no one else who tried the wings did so not sure if it was just me. The soy garlic was similar to most other Korean fried chicken eateries. The wings come with pickled radish, coleslaw, or pickled jalapeños. Friendly and attentive service. Food is fresh to order so it comes pipping hot and crispy. Located in between Cost Less and Summerfield Tea. Ample parking in the shared lot. read more

Tucked between a Cost Less and a Home Depot in a La Habra strip mall (yes, the kind where you go in for a light bulb and leave with a new deck), Chibab is the unassuming little Korean chicken sandwich spot you didn't know you needed. Let's be real -- Korean restaurants have cracked the code on fried chicken. Crispy, juicy, perfectly seasoned -- Chibab delivers on that promise without hesitation. The chicken sandwich hits the spot every time, even if it's a touch smaller (and slightly pricier) than our reigning champ, Holdaak. Think of it as the silver medalist that still earns a spot on the podium. The staff is warm and friendly, which helps offset the fact that the dining room is... cozy. Very cozy. As in, "order to-go and enjoy it in the comfort of your own home" cozy. Not a complaint -- just a heads up to plan accordingly. They also have a broader Korean menu we haven't fully explored yet, so there are more adventures ahead. But for now, Chibab earns its stripes as a solid neighborhood gem. Holdaak may still wear the crown, but Chibab is absolutely the loyal knight you'd want in your corner. A solid 4 stars. read more

Chibab Korean Fried Chicken - Korean Near Me - La Habra, California

AMAZING! I got the kspicy fingerlings medium size, bomb fries, and the chibab original (soy garlic) over rice. The food took maybe 20 minutes but I just grabbed boba next door so the wait didn't feel that long. Korean fried chicken always takes a bit but since it was so fresh, I didn't mind the wait at all. The lady that gave me the food was nice and attentive. She was kind and checked in on me. Beyond the good service, the food was worth the 30 minute drive to it. The fingerlings are the sauced, boneless option and the portion was generous. I ordered a medium and it definitely seemed more like a large at other places. Kspicy sauce was delicious, gochujang forward. Not very spicy but definitely bold. It was my favorite thing. The mu, or pickled radish, was great, it cut through the heavy sauce of the chicken. The bomb fries were good but I wish they were in the box vs the bowl. It was slightly difficult to eat a bite with chicken and fries. The taste was great, though I wish they put more of their house sauce on it. The fries hold up well to the sauce. I love the addition of corn and green onions. The chibab bowl was probably the least exciting. The plus was they had a generous portion of chicken to rice ratio. I think I need a different sauce because the soy garlic is very light compared to some I've had on the past. If you prefer like flavor, this will hit. In all of this dishes, the fry on the chicken was perfect. It was crispy, juicy, not greasy, and just plain delicious. You can tell they season their batter, the bite was great. The inside of the restaurant is small though there are a couple of tables. I would order to go and eat at the tables outside. I will definitely be back and I will get that Kspicy again! I can't wait to try other flavors and the chicken sandwich next time as well. read more

I had the sweet and spicy chicken finger combo. My wife had the spicy chicken bowl that had cabbage at the bottom. Both were very good. The bowl was hotter than the combo. Only waited about 10 minutes. Got here about 1:30pm am it was not crowded, but a steady stream of customers here for take out. We would eat here again. read more

Really great place. It's clean, it's organized, it's friendly. The lady who took my order was very kind and pleasant. I had the sweet/spicy chicken bites. The fries and chicken were fried perfectly. It's safe to assume they use fresh oil. The dark meat chicken bites oozed noice from the tender and moist meat. The coleslaw was nice and light. I also tried the cheeseballs and those were not quite for me. They were a little sweet and I was hoping they'd be more salty. Although, they were made very well and they had a nice soft gooey cheesy center with a deep fried exterior that was tenderly crisp. Over all, very good experience. I recommend. read more

There are so many KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) places out here now and I'm on the quest in finding the best spot in Orange County! I've had this spot bookmarked since they first opened up and boy am I glad I finally got the opportunity to try them out. Here's what I ordered: **Deluxe Chicken Sandwich: Perfect KFC sandwich with lots of flavor! The balance of flavors were absolutely perfect. The sauce itself wasn't salty at all, which is a huge plus. (5/5) **K-Spicy Fingerlings: Delicious! It had a nice kick of spice that lingered but flavor was spot on. My only slightly negative criticism is that I was hoping for something a pinch less sweeter. All in all, great popcorn chicken bites with lots of meat. (4.5/5) We came on a random weekday afternoon and had an order or two ahead of us. We were quoted a 10 to 15 minute wait time and it was right on the dot. I highly recommend Chibab Korean Fried Chicken if you need a superb KFC spot in Orange County! read more

We ordered both chicken sandwiches. It was around 3 on a weekday and it was pretty busy for a tiny place. Instead of a single chicken piece, the sandwiches are made with chicken tenders (breast) which are lightly battered and fried. They were crispy but not oily at all. My deluxe had cole slaw. lettuce, pickles and tomato which I needed to balance the heat of the chibab sauce. This was the first time I have seen lettuce/tomato on a sandwich with cole slaw but it works. The chibab sauce is like a spicy comeback sauce. I was full by the last bite of my sandwich so I don't regret neglecting to order sides. I got full for ten bucks of quality made-to-order ingredients so I am happy. The nice lady who helped us was perfect and the atmosphere is clean, efficiency. read more

Chibab Korean Fried Chicken - Deluxe sandwich and standard sandwich - Korean Near Me - La Habra, California

Amazing mom & pop restaurant that makes amazing Korean fried chicken and kimchi fried rice. The space is small and modest, but the food is so good. The lady working the cashier was very friendly and helpful. She greets you with a smile and periodically checks in on diners if we needed anything. I got the kimchi fried rice with spam and tried 3 different flavors of chicken wings. My favorite was the soy garlic flavor. The outside was still crispy, the sauce was well balanced, and the chicken was juicy and flavorful. My least favorite was the original spicy, but even that was still pretty good. This one has a crispy exterior, no sauce coating, and had bit of a kick. The lemon & pepper wings were pretty dang good too. I'll certainly be back to try other items on the menu! read more

Service is good. The owner seemed very nice and was welcoming all the customers with great smile. I had their wings. original spicy and soy garlic that were both very good. Wished the original spicy was a bit more spicy and salty but other than that the rest was good. Great choice of batter that seems different for the sauced wings and original Kristy wings. Piping hot with plenty of juices oozing out of each wing. Store has some seating inside and is clean but a little bit on the small side. I love small mom and pop's shop and wish this business the very best and will comeback for the chicken sandwich!! read more

NOTE: Maybe a situational rating, but my experience was honestly, pretty bad. I arrived around 6:15pm on a friday and didn't get my food until 7:20, almost an entire hour wait for a chicken sandwich and a bulgogi bowl. There might have jut been a disconnect or something between the front and the staff because food was not really moving out the door and people were waiting over 30-45 min. After 6:50 they started letting people know its going to be a wait then switched to sold out. If it seems busy ask wait time and don't expect a quick bite. Otherwise the service was nice, maybe inexperienced or just working things out. I'll be fair rating this by the quality of food though. Store: Store is pretty small itself, can fit like 12 people sitting so if you have big groups either take it to go or just know you might be waiting for seating. Chicken Sandwich: 6/10 Good, but not great to be honest. Toasted buns, but dry and almost felt stale. Chicken was a very good serving, now I wish it was breaded a little more, it lacked the crunch I normally like with chicken, but the cook of the chicken itself wasn't bad. It was kinda of juicy (definitely not the best but wasnt dry), the sauce was a nice touch, not too overpowering but also not too weak of a flavor. Very mid except for portions. Bulgogi Bowl: 5/10 Again, very average. An good portion of food but nothing amazing about the taste. No real notes about this, you pay for exactly what is listed but nothing more nothing less. read more

There are no words needed chibab is the best place for lemon pepper wings ! Typing this review is making me crave it, haha that's how addicting they are. This is a family owned store (I believe) and the people running it are so nice. It's more of a Togo store since there's limited seating but they do have seating inside & outside. But if you're ever looking for some good wings this is the place 10000/10 read more

Koreans make the best fried chicken and this place certainly did not disappoint. Small local with what looked like husband and wife running the show. They offer all kinds of wings as well as several Korean bowl options. I went with the deluxe chicken sandwich and it was amazing! Chicken was moist and juicy and outer crust was perfect. Sauce and slaw complimented it perfectly. Woman that helped me was super friendly and checked on me and asked me if everything was ok, not ok, AMAZING! $10 for the chicken burger is a great deal to! read more

Fave Korean fried chicken spot by far. Honestly might be the best Korean fried chicken I've ever had. Lemon pepper and soy garlic wings is where it's at. We were greeted by the sweetest Korean lady at the front. Ordering on the kiosk was simple and easy. The wings are made fresh to order, and amazing food always takes time. But it is 1000% worth the wait. Pickled radish, Cole slaw, and fries were also delish. I can't wait to come back!! read more

AMAZING Korean fried chicken!! This place is so so good!!! Wife and I wanted to check out a new spot and we wanted fried chicken. We figured this would be a good place to try. We were not disappointed at all! We got 5 piece original wings and 5 soy garlic. We also got a deluxe chicken sandwich combo. The wings were amazing. That soy garlic wing was the best. Wasn't too salty. Perfectly seasoned and had a nice crunch. The wings were so juicy on the inside too. I want more of that soy garlic wing right now haha. The chicken sandwich was so good! The tenders were nice and crunchy and the chicken was hot and juicy. The sauce is great and the sandwich felt fresh. They make everything fresh once you order, so do expect some time for your order to come out. The woman (I'm assuming the owner) was very nice and checked to make sure everything was good. This place is small, meaning there isn't much space inside, but we found a seat just fine. I'll be back!! read more
