The first time I went here was so good. The chicken was fresh and the way they cooked it was so delicious. But second time, I felt like I was eating leftovers. Or heated chicken. Plus the sauce wasn't that good. read more

Yummy Korean fried chicken that hits the spot. I am spoiled by the places in Queens, which are definitely a notch up, but if you want to schlep an hour and a half for fried chicken be my guest; shorter wait times for me. Don't forget to add the Path/subway fares to the cost of your meal :) Order in advance even if you plan to eat in since food is cooked to order and takes 20min to prepare. I usually order for pickup and grab a bubble tea from gong cha right next door to go with. Just a tad expensive I feel, but not out of bounds of reason. You do get generous portions of food and leftovers reheat well, so feel free to get the whole chicken or the large drumsticks for a slightly lower per-unit cost. read more

Ordered delivery from Chicken Factory...When the delivery guy called to say he was here I scrambled to throw my clothes on and had forgot if I tipped so I was also shuffling cash around in my wallet. I opened the door and went down to our front entrance. The food was sitting inside the front door and I looked out to see the delivery guy waving goodbye to me outside. This is the third time we've ordered delivery to our new place and I'm still baffled as to how the delivery guys keep getting in the coded front door without me giving them a code. Anyways, I took the food upstairs and waited for a minute for Olive to let me in since I had forgotten my keys. We tried watching Hot Fuzz but I didn't have it on any of my streaming services. After like 10 minutes of trying to put it on I gave up and put on The IT Crowd and started eating. Mind you the food had probably been sitting in the box for like 30 minutes at this point, but WOW was it HOT and CRISPY. I ate so fast that I could differentiate between the two flavors I had chosen but I didn't care. Perfectly fried, HUGE pieces of chicken (especially the drumsticks) and a decent serving of 8 or 9 wings for $13. I couldn't finish them all. Also, they have these awesome fries that are super crispy and crunchy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I've had other Korean fried chicken before in NYC and Baltimore and this was definitely on par with those. Just as good as Bonchon if not better! I'd definitely recommend this place for delivery if you're in Hoboken and have a hankering for Korean fried chicken. Delivery was FAST and the food was FRESH! Will definitely order again when I'm hankering for Korean fried chicken. read more

Chicken Factory - wings and fries :^) wings come in a clever little box - Chicken Wings Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Ordered bulgoki bibimbap last night- the portion was terrible. Literally half spoon of beef. I couldn't taste the beef at all. The worst was the customer service. When I called the manager adidya insisted that that's the right portion. Beef bulgoki is my favorite Korean food and I have never seen such terrible portion anywhere! It's really sad! read more

I drive 35mins one way to eat at Chicken Factory. This is the best KFC in the Tri-State area. Staff is always kind, warm, and welcoming.

Watch out Cluck-U Chicken. Here's the place that's going to put you out of business. Tasty KFC (Korean fried chicken) comes to Hoboken. Top notch flavors and friendly staff round out Hoboken's best chicken wing experience. I think the spicy is better than the soy garlic. In any case, no more waking up in the morning in shame after eating the garbage they serve at Cluck-U. I understand they intend to offer a few Korean food items as well. Looking forward to it. read more

As a Korean American who lives in Hoboken, I'm torn about giving this place a poor review because this is the only Korean-ish restaurant in Hoboken and I wish there were more. But as much as I tried to like them, I just didn't enjoy my experience there. The chicken was okay. We got a mixed drumstick/wing plate. I think the wings are better because the proportion of batter to meat is probably higher and you get more of the tasty flavoring. The chicken was pretty good but it not as good as Kyochon. At first, I thought the chicken was overpriced but when I got through my meal, I was pretty full so it's deceptively filling. The bibimbap was pretty bad compared to ones you'll find in Koreantown. I would not recommend it unless you really can't eat anything else. I thought the eating experience at the restaurant was pretty poor. They should give people hand wipes since it is chicken. Also, even though it wasn't an extremely hot day, it was still fairly warm and they didn't seem inclined to turn the A/C on, which made me think they were really cheap and stingy. I think I'm going to avoid this place and just drive up to Fort Lee or go to Manhattan for Korean food. read more

It is amazing korean style fried chicken. I ordered spicy and mild taste of them. It is very crispy and tender inside. Delivery time is little bit long but it is ok. I will make orders when i have any party in my home. read more

10/10 Chicken, been coming here for over a decade and the quality slaps. Amazing flavors and delicious crispy chicken.

I hate chicken wings! I hate buffalo wings! I do however love the chicken that comes out of this place. I will say I think the name is really awful and it does them a disservice but the wings are phenomenal. I've had other dishes there as well but the wings are the most flavorful. I usually split the box with mild and spicy as I enjoy both of the flavors equally. These wings have more of an Asian flavor and the chicken is not nasty. It's a high quality and extremely tasty. The location itself has some seating and is very clean and orderly. It looks almost like an Apple Store. Delivery always comes quick and the people that work there and deliver are extremely polite and do an awesome job. I love to just order these on a Friday night for my wife and I and throw on a movie. One of the better fast food options in Hoboken. This stands along with The Taco Truck as one of my Hoboken favorites. read more

This is knock off of BonChon Chicken- KyoChon, Chicken Factory, whatever you want to call it... Nothing compares to the original BonChon. Might I also add that here on the this side of the Hudson, a small order of chicken means: - 9 pieces for $11.99-- how is this small and how is this cheap? You can mix and match the flavors and chicken types. I got the wings and drums- note that the "drums" are not the small drums, but rather, whole chicken drums. I didn't know this. A whole drum is too heavy Korean Fried Chicken style- so stick with just the wings; you get the small drums too. - 20 min wait for double fried chicken- which is pretty standard -A dry "Soy Garlic" and a way too saucy/tangy Sweet and Spicy Sauce. The latter seems to be unique to Chicken Factory, and it's prob. their take on the American Buffalo wing as the Lord knows American is pretty rampant here in Hobokes.. it was too messy, saucy, and tangy for me. Unlike the American buffalo sauce though, it was actually spicy. The Soy Garlic was done wrong completely- Soy Garlic is never supposed to be dry and lacking in flavor. This Soy Garlic didn't have enough 1) Garlic, and 2) Sauciness. There are two tables to dine in, so I suggest taking out or going Seamless.. which seems the route most go. On the other hand, the girl at the counter was really nice and friendly. read more

Bibimbap. In Hoboken. My prayers were answered when I discovered this. Unfortunately, Chicken Factory helps maintain the theory that Hoboken is lacking in quality ethnic food outside of Italian and falafel. Bibimbap is not even close to the best I've had but at least it's an offering. In order to meet the delivery minimum ($20!), I ordered french fries. These were off the HOOK. They must fry them in chicken fat (*anti-vegetarian alert!*), I'd guess? Honestly, I'm not sure I really care as these bad boys were amazing. 2 stars for the bibimbap quality, 5 stars for the fries, 1 star for the ridiculously high minimum for delivery.. read more

Delicious chicken wings. Korean fried chicken is one of the best tasting treats you can have, it's truly an experience that is unlike any other. I've gone here several times, )usually after some drinking is involved). I have friends who live in Hoboken and we always bring back an order of two of the spicy garlic wings. These things are amazing, super crispy and spicy and leave you wanting more. Definitely the most addicting chicken wings I've ever had. As for the prices... Not too friendly. They have two choices, small for about 13.99 or a large for 20 and change. A small is more than enough for one person who isn't extremely hungry, but it definitely isn't cheap. Best bet is to get a large and split it with drinking buddies. Also, calling ahead is a smart idea because these wings aren't cooked until you order them, so you could wait 20 minutes or more for their food. They are open decently late and the people are pretty friendly. If you want amazing wings that will definitely leave you wanting more, look no further. read more

Just finished devouring my very first order from Chicken Factory, a Korean-Style fried chicken place in Hoboken. We normally go all the way up to Fort Lee for this style of double-fried super light and crispy chicken, and it's great that now we have something this good close by. How did they do? They nailed it. the taste, crunch and aroma matched my experience and the better known Bon Chon chicken exactly. We had our order delivered and it still arrived as hot and crisp as I hoped for. It might seem expensive, but the large order of wings and legs fed my family of four. I hope as their menu grows they add french fries as good as Bon Chon's! Next time? I'm trying the spicy! read more

Some of the best Korean fried chicken I have ever tasted. Super quick delivery but just a tad bit pricey.

super friendly staff and local Korean Fried Chicken, meaning soy garlic and spicy sweet. they also deliver if you order $10+ in hoboken and $20+ outside. how could you beat that?! AND they have chicken tenders (boneless), for lazy people like me that don't like to get their hands dirty. oh and they're not just chicken. they have bulgogi, bibimbap and kimchi. if you wanna get your drink on, they're byob. i went there a big group of people and they only had 4 tables available, but they brought out an extra one from out of nowhere to accommodate our group... how awesome are they?! another plus? this place is pristine. (check my pics) will i be going back? pssshhh i'm already there! read more

To start off this is a awesome Korean chicken but Only four choices for you to order of how you get your chicken....boneless, sweet and spicy, soy garlic, or both in one order. (Wings and/or drumsticks)...you also have side orders of fries or rice....*rubs hands togeather* lets get to what I got? I got to taste both soy garlic and sweet & spicy...my preference As a fat kid is the soy garlic but that's just me! Lol...of course the pricing is Hoboken eatery prices...but you get the bang for your buck at this joint, trust me from a chicken head like me Ctfu... A Must try that is something different from the usual crowns,kfc,Popeyes chicken you're used too! read more

Probably the best chicken wings in Hoboken. I don't say this with an off-the-cuff statement. Order the sweet and spicy wings. They are perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, with the combination of spicy that won't burn your mouth, but will make your nose run a bit, and sweet that makes you want to just devour another one. The only reason I give it four stars is the price. I'm all for paying good money for good food, but I kinda wish there was a 6-8 wing (appetizer) option for $8. The small size for wings is about $12 for 12 wings. OK, $1 a wing. They should make a smaller option here for someone looking to grab 8 wings. But trust me. You will eat all 12 of those wings in a heartbeat. They are that good. read more

Korean Fried Chicken in Hoboken?!?! What? Tastes just as good as Bon Chon? You've got to be kidding! I kid not! Chicken Factory in Hoboken serves up their food with more diversity and variety than Bon Chon currently offers. For the chicken, you have the option of 2 different sauces, Soy Garlic and Sweet Spicy and for the chicken you have the option of Wings, Wings and Legs or the Whole Chicken! Yessss the Wholleee chicken. Thighs, legs, and breast.. white meat or dark meat. Not only that but this place serves up some of the more popular korean dishes such as bulgoki, bibimbap, and jab che! All great options that will keep everyone satisfied, not to say that the chicken doesn't do the job but it's always great to have options. I ordered the large whole chicken, mixed with both sauces for $20. I'd say a large order is more than enough for 2 people. With every order you also get a side of their pickled radish and a soda, which is a great way to end the meal. The skin was so crispy and the chicken was also juicy, just the way it should be made! The thighs were definitely the best pieces and the white meat was so-so. It's great that this place is so close to home to, I can stop by practically whenever I feel like it. TIP: Just like Bon Chon, they make their chicken to order and each order takes 20 minutes, so if you plan on eating there or at home, call ahead of time if you don't want to wait!

***TIME: Anytime, once a week. ***FOOD (5/5 stars): Best hang over food, best PMS food, best chicken wings, best put-me-in-a-better-mood-after-shitty-day. Chicken wings (4/5 stars): ALWAYS order same large size (about 22-24 wings), which is half spicy and half soy garlic. Had delivered for 8 relatives, but had to deliver for a second time within the same hour because they loved it so much. Same with my parents and a house party we threw. People eat it at least twice before they leave....that's also because I paid for it but mainly because it's so addictive. Make sure to order radish with it because it cleanses your palette and tastes good! ***SERVICE (4/5 stars): Not sit and get served, so I cannot comment on that. However, service is typical for an asian place. ***CUSTOMERS: 95% of the time we order to go to get it delivered, so not sure about the customers. ***ENVIRONMENT/SPACE: About 9-12 tables in the front. ***WILL I COME BACK?: Yes and have been. So does everyone I refer!!!! Ahhh want some now, but cannot because they're closed and it's 11:58pm now :( read more

A-MAZ-ING! We've been Boom Boom lovers for years, but it's not at all convenient. So we've been resolved to eating Bon Chon and Kyo Chon, both of which are very good. But tonight, as we bit into our first drumsticks, we knew that even Boom Boom couldn't compare to this succulent, perfectly spiced chicken. My husband and I shared the large wings/drumsticks, and as we approached the last of the chicken, we both agreed we could eat another whole large order. Of course, we didn't, but we could have...and that's the point. Seriously thanking the Universe for bringing Chicken(s) Factory to our 'hood!!! PROS: Best KFC EVER! Great pricing! Perfect amount of spice on the spicy (at Kyo Chon we cannot enjoy the meal it's so hot!) HUGE, MEATY wings and drumsticks! CONS: We only got one order!! read more

Very good but pretty pricey for takeout! We had the bulgoki, bibimbap, and small order of wings. Both flavors are good. The bibimbap is good but they don't give enough vegetables.bulgoki was tasty but the side of coleslaw was almost milky. My only question is why don't they give you any kimchi? It's a korean staple! read more

Although the chicken is tasty, the Yelp offer for a free bottle of soda was not honored. Not trying to be a cheapskate, but if your establishment offers an online deal, I believe you should honor it. Ugh. read more

Ordered the Bulgoki (Korean BBQ with Rice) the other night, and have become an instant fan! This place rocks! Great tasting healthy food, Good size portions, and quick delivery. I'm making this place one of my main staples. read more

It's good to call in advance and place your order. That's what I did. They said the order would be ready within 15-20 minutes... and it was! They prepared my order on time and the cashier was very courteous as well. As for the food: the chicken tasted AMAZING! I ordered a large #3 - wings & drumsticks (for me and my parents to share). It comes with 14 wings and 7 drumsticks. I ordered for the 14 wings to be soy garlic flavor and for the 7 drumsticks to be sweet spicy flavor. I didn't have any of the sweet spicy drumsticks but my parents said they tasted great and were quite spicy! I enjoyed eating the soy garlic wings. They were delicious! I love the chicken at Bon Chon but this is definitely better. I will not hesitate to order from here ever again! :) The only downside is that I didn't like their french fries. They kind of taste like the fries that Five Guys serves. Bon Chon DEFINITELY has the better fries. read more

Favorite Korean fried chicken in Hoboken! Sweet and spicy! Wow! Great flavor, great texture. Very juicy and tasty!

This place is so bad. They take forever to deliver. Always. The food is decent but the delivery process is just terrible. On top, they don't answer their phone. Don't ever order from them! read more

very good fried chicken and very good delivery service as well. Definitely would order again. read more

OMG I love korean fried chicken and this place is good. I've really only had the wings from here (original, soy garlic, spicy) and all flavors are amazing. Super crunchy and good size wings. Always enjoy takeout from here. read more

I had this for lunch today and it was great. The Chicken Meal was good for the price. A coworker had the Bibimbap and said it was delicious too. We ordered the spicy & soy garlic. I like that their spicy was still palatable. It wasn't like other spicy Korean fried chickens that you couldn't eat because it was too spicy. The spicy from Chicken Factory was spot on. The soy garlic was actually not as sweet as other I've had and I prefer it. I will definitely come back and I've already told some friends about it who might be going there for dinner tonight! =D read more

We love the chicken. Half and half but this one time. Burnt rice. No chicken factory. Just NO! And how the heck do you even burn rice on a rice cooker? Congrats on doing that but next time just scoop around the burnt parts. read more

Chicken Factory - Burnt rice?? - Chicken Wings Near Me - Hoboken, New Jersey

Their food is not consistent. Its half and half. Its half of the time good and other half are bad. Today I had a bad chicken. It was all soggy and oily. The chicken wasn't fresh, it stank. I tasted like they used fermented chicken. read more

I love Korean fried chicken, so I was excited to see this place finally open up in Hoboken (it was under construction for most of the summer). Being a lover of the chicken wing, I was nervous about this place, but I was very pleasantly surprised. These wings are delicious. I got the mix of sweet/spicy and soy garlic, both of which I liked very much, but think I prefer the sweet/spicy. Two thumbs up! Finally, a place in Hoboken where the take-out is awesome! I can't wait to try their other food as soon as they begin offering it for dinner (they are serving a limited menu for now). Note that the small size costs $11.99 but it comes with 14 pieces of chicken (I couldn't finish it in one sitting), traditional pickled radishes, and a can of soda. Not too bad of a deal. This place also seems to be a bit better for take-out, as there are only a few tables. And make sure you plan to wait about 20-25 minutes for chicken as they fry it up on the spot for you (or order ahead of time). read more

Watching football, searched "wings" on yelp and i found this place where the name literally sounds like its a slaughter house. The menu made me think of the tasty korean fried chicken i've tried before. What we got were nicely cooked fried chicken wings that were large and tender. But what was missing was the flavors of soy garlic and spiceyness you see at places like bon chon chicken. This was a total let down. Not to mention it was overpriced. They also don't double fry their chicken here. I thought I had found my answer to NYCs bon chon chicken in hoboken. Which I've actually had dreams about. What I got was flavorless overpriced chicken. I don't see this place being able to charge $20 for a large order of wings if they continue to put out the same The bulgolgi lunch special was so so dry. Basically beef jerky in a sauce. Honestly a very sad display of korean food. Overpriced slop. It went straight into the garbage after one bite. read more

Ordered Bibimbap Vegetarian. It's a very health choice for dinner. Vegetables are fresh and the kimchi sauce was delicious w rice. The soup w the meal was disappointing tho. read more

I really am trying to like this place because it's the only Korean joint in Hoboken. Got the bimbimbap lunch special ($9.99) which was really good. Wish it came with more of the spicy sweet red pepper sauce. The miso soup that comes with it had no tofu or seaweed and was super bland, they didn't use much miso paste in it. The chicken wing lunch special ($7.49) was good, not better than the kyochons and other Korean chicken places in NY though. It came with rice and coleslaw. The coleslaw was pretty bland. Wish it came with kimchi instead. Usually Korean places give kimchi for free but you have to buy it here ($1.99). I'd still come back when I have Korean food cravings but probably only for lunch specials because dinner is the same exact thing but $3 more just cause. read more

I love it! bon chon in jersey city (and i dont mean the one in nyc either) mind you sucks (but thats a different review) chicken factory is great tasting and delicious. the atmosphere is cute and bright. and it is located right in the middle of hoboken on washington street which is great. the chicken came out crispy and the soy garlic and spicy chicken are delicious. crunchy and savory. the spicy chicken is spicy too =] why didnt i give it four stars? because they didnt have pickled radishes! really? authentic korean chicken without radish?! i think not. the man who worked there, maybe the owner, said he would eventually have them. so ill be back, and maybe there will be some radishes! btw the owner was just great and very kind. they had a few other things on the menu, but i have not tried them since i was busy scarfing down chicken. if you want korean friend chicken come here! but if its your first time go to bon chon in fort lee for the radishes. woot. oh and if you never had korean fried chicken before, dont forget to call ahead!!!!!! we did and it was ready to eat the moment we got there. read more

One of the better Korean fried chicken places in NY and NJ. They have a sweet and spicy flavored fried chicken which is amazing. They make the chicken when you order it, so it's fresh and steaming right when you get it. So if you want fast food, go to KFC. Their spicy sweet flavor is much better than other places and other notable korean fried chicken places do not have. Their spicy sweet flavor is better than Bon Chon and BBQ. Even if you get it delivered or take it home, it's still crisp like you expect it to be. read more

Don't come here if you're in a rush. Come here if you love crunchy, crackle-y chicken wings slathered in sticky sweet & spicy or garlic soy sauce. These wings stay magically crunchy and delicious even after sitting in the box on the long walk home. The seafood pancake was too greasy for me and the chicken salad was a bit of a disappointment. To sum it up- sure, they're slow for a fast food place, but every second is worth it. Just get the chicken, it's what they do best. read more

I'm a fan of their hot wings - crispy on the outside, juicy and meaty inside. The lunch special is a good deal which includes sticky rice, cole slaw, and a soda though the plain white rice could use a sauce or something. They make everything to order which is a good thing but it also takes about 15-20 minutes so order ahead if possible. They have only a few small tables inside (and some techno-oriented pop playing, ecch!) so it might be more suited as a take-out place. read more
