    Soy Garlic and Cheese Snow
    Kathy N.

    Chicken was AMAZING. So crispy and well seasoned. Bone in chicken was super juicy and cooked just right. Snow cheese powder reminded me of kraft mac n cheese. Would love to try the yangyeom sauce next time. Location itself has lots of parking but not much seating inside. Only 2 tables that seat 4 and a bar with 5 seats. Lots of people ordered takeout. Ordering was fast and easy. Workers were nice. Food came out as fast as it can considering the chicken is fried fresh. My only complaint is I wish they had rice as a side. It would make eating the chicken feel more substantial.

    Soy garlic
    Vanessa L.

    Went after the husband's supervisor recommended it. It's a small space limited seats. We were greeted right away. The husband ordered a half order of boneless cheese snow and I ordered soy Garlic wings. We were told about 20-30 minutes however the wait wasn't that long. The wings were delivered hot and crispy. We enjoyed them and would definitely come back my only real small tiny complaint is that I would love more garlic on the soy garlic I think it would balance out the sweetness better but over all not a big complaint. Service was friendly we were thanked and welcomed back as we were leaving. We will definitely visit again

    Fresh made to order Korean fried chicken, yum! It's my first time trying Chicko Chicken, and I gotta say, it's one of the best KFC I've had in Washington. The skin is super cripsy (even with sauce), and both soy garlic and buldak sauces are delicious. I also recommend the fries with cheese snow. The batter makes the fried extra crispy. The price is on the high side, $26.9 for a full chicken (12 pieces) half and half (2 sauces). Also, I've always gotten free radish pickle from other KFC spots, but here you will have to pay extra for it. We went during grand opening, the staff was kind enough to give my toddler a balloon to entertain him while we waited. The inside is small, a couple tables and some tall chairs for waiting; most people get it to-go Tip: 1) you get charged $.80 for a bag, but you can bring your own and tell them to skip the bag when you order 2) make it a combo for an additional $4.99 (fried + drink)

    I remember when this shop first opened, when the owners were running it themselves (I believe husband and wife). Back then, customers were treated with care, attention to detail mattered, and the restaurant was clean and well-kept. My visit in 2025 was a great experience. Unfortunately, as of February 2026, that standard is no longer being met. This restaurant is small, so cleanliness should be manageable, yet it did not smell good and did not look clean. The bright lighting that once enhanced the experience now did the opposite, making the dirt on the baseboards, walls, and chairs very noticeable. Standing there waiting for service, I couldn't help but think: if the front looks like this, what does the kitchen look like? I'm writing this review as an update on how Chicko's is doing since the grand opening. If you look at my previous review, you'll see how excited and satisfied I was during my first visit. There are new hours, which isn't an issue. However, the kitchen closes at 9:30 PM. I arrived before 9:30, but there were no employees at the front. I stood there for several minutes with extremely loud music playing and couldn't even call out for help. After waiting, I started taking photos for this review. A few minutes later, at 9:32, an employee came out and told me I could not order because the kitchen had closed at 9:30. This same employee has been here recently and appears to be newer. She is often wearing headphones or looking at her phone. While that's common these days, it doesn't come across as professional or attentive to customers. For context, I'm a regular customer. I eat here and also pick up orders for DoorDash as a side hustle. I come in multiple times a week and have done so consistently since the shop opened. Despite that, I'm treated like a stranger--interactions feel robotic and not genuine. That's disappointing, especially since the business once felt like the owners truly cared. It's also unfortunate that the young man who worked here around October is no longer employed. He treated customers very well, whether they were ordering food or picking up deliveries, and he was consistently kind and professional. If you're only coming for the food, it's still good, and this may still be your spot. But if you're looking to become a regular, expect consistency, and feel confident the restaurant is clean every time, I can't confidently recommend it anymore. At least, it's no longer the spot for me. Because of this, I'll be looking for a new chicken restaurant in Federal Way. I don't support family-owned businesses that lose their focus on cleanliness, service, and care while only chasing profit.

    The food is so good here that my mom wanted to drive here just for lunch after trying it cold from my aunt. They are small but soooo kind! I came here on a Saturday afternoon and people were non stop coming in. It is family owned and the chicken is better than the spots we went to in Lakewood. If you haven't stopped by, whenever you're in federal way, give it a try!

    Half & Half Yangyeom & Soy Garlic
    Suman K.

    Ordered takeout using Chicko Chicken's website and it was so easy! We got half and half boneless wings, the flavors were yangyeom and soy garlic. The food was ready within 20 minutes as promised and well packaged. I was nervous that the wings wouldn't be as crispy once we got home, but I can confirm they remained quite crispy and both flavors were quite yummy. I will definitely come to Chicko Chicken again next time I'm in the area :)

    Half-Soy Gangjung & Full-Yangyeom
    Tori L.

    Ordered full bone-in yangyeom & half bone-in soy gangjung, both tasted good but yangyeom had little more heat to it. My teenage kids scarfed it down fast but I managed to get a piece of each chicken. Clearly their size portions are not as big as other places so I deducted a star. I'm also glad their chicken doesn't have that raw chicken smell/taste, so we'll be back. But not tomorrow (like what the worker said..lol), but until my kids ask for it again. Love it when people have a good sense of humor.

    Wow, the service was one of the best I've witnessed. The man at the counter did his best to communicate in ASL. He went above and beyond for his customers. That alone says so much h about the business. The place was clean and the staff was friendly. Now let's talk food. Wow! So crispy and freshly made. It did take over 30 minutes to get the food but it was worth it! I highly recommend the chicken. Juicy, crispy, the right amount of spice. Can't go wrong.

    Half & Half of Cheese Snow and Soy Garlic.
    Pearl L.

    My boyfriend and I decided to stop by to try out a new Korean fried chicken spot which apparently isn't their first location, so I definitely wanted to give it a try. As we arrived, we were welcomed warmly with the cashier. The menu is pretty concise and simple to understand. One issue with this establishment is that all other Korean restaurants or Korean fried chicken places always provide pickled radishes with an order of Korean fried chicken. This is not the cause with Chicko Chicken and they also charge for the pickled radish, which is strange and annoying. The inside is nice, very white and bright. They were playing K-pop inside. There were different tables and a counter with plenty of chairs for diners. They have a fridge with different drinks to go with your order as well. We got a half and half with cheese snow and soy garlic with French fries and opted to dine in. It took several minutes for us to get our order despite being the only ones there and there were maybe one take out order. I gave them grace though as I know they just recently opened up. They gave us these very flimsy paper boats to eat our chicken and didn't provide water, but once I asked then they decided to give us water. Additionally, there was little specks in the paper cups so it was a bit of a waste. The chicken and French fries were great though. The chicken was juicy and fried to crispy perfection. It was just really rough to eat our food as the chicken would tip over every time I tried to put it in the boat provided. I would recommend them to get plates at the very least to accommodate diners. We only chose to dine in as I hate soggy fried chicken and prefer to eat it as it comes out. Other than that, it was a really solid experience but I think other Korean fried chicken places are better as it is just a few dollars more to receive pickled radish, a salad, and better utensils.

    Expensive but delicious. Everything was well coated and nice and hot. Door dash charges a few more dollars and a .99 fee. If it sits for awhile in the box, it will leak through so make sure to keep it in the bag if you are traveling or leaving on a counter. My 3 year old liked the soy garlic. The only thing I wish they also served was some rice but I will definitely be back in the future.

Everytime I visit here, I ALWAYS get the creamy bulgolgi udon. This dish is super unique and I've never seen it elsewhere. The sauce is so flavorful and pairs perfectly with the bouncy/chewy udon and well marinated bulgolgi. The pork belly kimchi udon is good as well if you like a spicy kick. We also ordered the half and half fried chicken (original and yangnyeom) and it was perfectly crispy and juicy on the inside! My friend enjoyed the spicy seafood stir fry which paired well with a bottle of soju but they also have lots of other drinks (nonalcoholic) to choose from! after a long night out or just for a casual lunch/dinner-- definitely a go to spot for me.

There were three types of wings that we ordered, but the only one I had was the honey garlic. The wings itself are a really good size, good crispiness, and decent flavor. You could miss this spot if you don't know that there is a stairway that goes down a level (hence the name Underground??)) Once you get down there, you get the vibe of a bar (on the low light side, but bright enough to see and enjoy your food, drink, and company). It does give karaoke bar vibe. The service was just ok. I had questions about the rice cake dishes which are basically teokkbokki, but I'm not sure why they don't put that on the menu. The person who took our order was fine but non descriptive with the dishes. The creamy rice cake looked like penne Alfredo upon coming out. The taste was fine, but since it wasn't described for me, I truly didn't know what was in it other than heavy cream (because that's what I was told). Other than the four star chicken, it was fine. Three stars.
