Five stars, no notes. I love this place. The staff is so welcoming, funny, and great at what they do. Every time I have a cocktail it is delightfully balanced. I think my cocktail was called the Tokyo Pop? Not positive but you have to get it. Gin, bubbles, sake, and a hint of lemon in a flute glass. Refreshing, a hint of sweet, a hint of lemon, and extremely drinkable. It would be too easy to throw a ton of these back. But I was demure and had one. I enjoyed the calamari--my go-to here. Crispy, with a bit of heat from pickled peppers, a bit a of sweet form a sweet glaze, and a nice herby zing from mint, herbs, and scallions. They also top the calamari with a a nice portion of greens dressed in a lemon vinaigrette, making this appetizer feel close to a light meal. I am absolutely obsessed with the ponzu mayo that comes on the side. An absolutely delightful touch. I also enjoyed the chocolate cream pot. Talk about decadent. I love that it is served with berries, because you need that tartness to balance out the richness. Fully indulgent. Bonus points: I working fireplace. (And holiday decor still up--this never bothers me.) The ambiance is always lovely, with something iconic on the TV always playing. This spot is one of my fave representation of the Louisville food scene. read more

First, this restaurant is great! Where do I start, the service, the cocktails, the chef or the food? All of which are stand outs. I was fortunate to be with a large party and we decided to order several dishes and share. Everything was delicious, and the banana flower salad was memorable and we ordered two. I'd also recommend the veggie sides, carrots, bok choy, and brussels sprouts. Chik'n & Mi is a wonderful place for a date, solo dining or spending time with friends. Overall, this is a wonderful place that accommodated all of our needs. read more

The food and charm of this restaurant is spot on. If you like an Asian and southern fusion, Chik'n Mi is a great location. Went there this past Saturday and their special was a Thai inspired lemon grass based brother soups with seafood and noodles. I rarely get excited about "soup" but this was delish! Woodear mushroom spring rolls are always a must as well as fried brussel sprouts. Can't go wrong with the fried chicken as well. Nuggets or pieces of chicken are delish, depends on how you feel like eating your chicken! Pork belly bao buns had a great combination of fatty meat with tang of pickle and onions plus a dip in the duck sauce is a must. read more

Have You Ever??? In My Fantasia Voice... ...passed by the original location and then the new location so many times but when you finally stop by it feels unreal... Well that's what happened when I picked this local place to have dinner for a teeny weeny birthday celebration with my friend. We tried the fried cauliflower as an appetizer and it was DELISH! It has a slight kick that snuck up on you but you definitely didn't mind. We will order it again next time around! I ordered the 3pc mix with the flavor of Sweet-n-Soy, side of fried Brussels sprouts and the bonita fries. Let me tell you something, as Fire Marshall Bill says, those fries were so good and had so much umami. Using a cooking show term, feeling kinda fancy. The glaze on the chicken was light enough to not take away the crispness of the chicken but enough to bring the flavor. I didn't like the fried brussels sprouts as much, almost fried too hard. My friend had the fried chicken sandwich in sweet n soy with fries and said it was really good. We will definitely be back one more time or maybe two read more

*from January Went to Chik'n & Mi for the first time and it was awesome! It was super cozy inside and our server was so friendly. We got the fried chicken steam buns, the fried pork egg rolls, the street corn, and the chicken nuggets with sweet soy and hot jeaw bong sauce. My favorite were the steam buns but everything was super flavorful and a 10/10!! read more

Are you read for your taste buds to thank you? I recently indulging in Chik 'n & Mi offerings, and I'm thoroughly impressed. I got to sit outside in the beautiful patio, such a vibrant energy. And ordered a nice tequila cocktail to enjoy the afternoon. Chik 'n & Mi's menu combines the flavors of Southern fried chicken with the savory delights of Asian cuisine. I was went with the fried chicken but will be back to try out the Asian food! The crispy chicken, a hallmark of Southern cuisine, takes center stage in several dishes. The chicken is perfectly seasoned crunch that gives way to tender, juicy meat. read more

Everyone is friendly and the food is amazing. Have come here countless times and tried everything and never had a bad experience. Probably the best wings in town. I will say if you are shy to a soggy wing get the onion sauce on the side instead. read more

Our server was super helpful in explaining what the sauces and such were considering this was our first time here. The interior was very inviting and despite how packed it was, we were able to get a reservation in right before we arrived during Sunday brunch. I ordered a Miso Pork Ramen and got both spicy and garlic flavor for an extra $1 each. It was delicious but definitely on the saltier side. I really tried to cram all that ramen broth into my stomach before I left but the portion was quite large so I was unsuccessful. As an appetizer, we had gotten the pork buns and fried chicken as it was recommended to us by the server. I really enjoyed the pork buns! I would love to explore this menu more and am definitely going to check it out again. I sense I won't get bored with the diverse menu. read more

Amazing date night spot. We stopped here before a concert and had curry ramen and a chicken sandwich. We also had egg rolls, but we devoured those before I got a photo (there were 3 in the order). It was busy in the restaurant, so I'm glad we made a reservation ahead of time. Service was great. Highly recommend! read more

Beat the evening rush and was able to find a table indoors. Service from the start was very amicable and prompt. Enjoyed sitting next to a fireplace on a cool night. Waiter asked about allergies and promptly gave me a menu that was off marked with gluten option and what can be made gluten free. Food was amazing, the flavors and tasted very fresh. Definitely recommend this place and hope to one day come back when in the area. read more

The service staff was very inclusive and incredibly kind throughout the entire menu process. The vibes of this location were incredible as it is family style and clear that everyone is welcomed here. The staff is very knowledgeable about their food and how they source their ingredients. The chicken ramen was a huge miss for me and I'm sad about it. The broth was bland and flavorless, the chicken seemed unseasoned, but the veggies and noodles were decent. The Brussels were good and savory but not in my top 10 that I've had. The pork egg rolls were the best I've ever had, bar none. The key lime pie was tart and refreshing. read more

Without question, the best patio in the city! Large sturdy chairs, beautiful flowers, string lights - what more could you ask for? But Chik'n Mi doesn't just bring the ambiance - they also have great food. It's fried chicken Asian fusion. Their menu is full of deliciousness such as fried chicken nuggets, ramen, lettuce wraps, and calamari. They have several vegetarian options as well. I love the chicken lettuce wraps, fried cauliflower, and fried Brussel sprouts. The ramen is always tempting and full to the brim with toppings. I love that they offer online reservations. This makes it super easy to reserve your patio table for brunch! read more

First impression is that it's a cute place with eclectic decor. Sat outside in the nice weather. Service was good and server was friendly. I really wanted to like the food but it was all average. There was one nice surprise hit of the evening. Pork Belly Bun - 3 stars It would have tasted better if the pork belly was seared but it would still have lacked some flavor. Even the hoisin sauce didn't save it. Banana flower salad - 4 stars Surprise hit! Lots of perfectly ripe avocado made all the difference. And the rice crisp added the needed texture for all the softness in the salad. Dressing was delish. Curry chicken ramen - 3 stars This was okay. Definitely filling if you ate the whole bowl. I liked the egg and baby corn Pan roasted carrots - 2 stars Maybe even 1 star...I couldn't eat more than a couple of bites. They were not baby heirloom carrots like I was expecting so they were not tender and sweet. And the dressing was so tart. Would not recommend. read more

We came here for my birthday dinner! I wanted to pick a place with outstanding reviews that we hadn't tried yet, and we settled on Chik'n & Mi. Although it wasn't quite as amazing as we were hoping, we still had a really nice dinner. We started out with the Wood Ear Mushroom Egg Rolls, since we absolutely love mushrooms, especially new funky varieties. The mushroom flavor here didn't really come through, so those were disappointing. We also started with the Pork Belly Steam Buns. These also fell a little flat, they really benefitted from the sauce that came with them. We did enjoy the ramen that we each got for our entree, and had plenty of yummy leftovers for the next day. The locale is beautiful! It feels super intimate. I love how it is decorated and how they managed to make the building into a functional restaurant. The staff was working hard all night, they were great. read more

Came here for Saturday brunch! Made reservations for 10:30 and it was pretty quiet and empty when we first arrived. It started getting much busier around 10:45 or 11. The staff was very friendly and the inside of the restaurant was very cute! We ordered the huevos rancheros and like a chicken Benedict. The huevos rancheros was our favorite! Both the servings were too big for either of us to finish everything on our plate but we enjoyed eating here. We hope to come back to try lunch or dinner! read more

Wow this place is as great! Thank you Yelp! The restored home turned restaurant is beautiful and serving some delicious food. I started with the fried cauliflower. It was seasoned in a way I have never had before. I really enjoyed the seeds that produced a different texture. I also loved the sauce which was a little tangy. I ordered the smaller nuggets with two side sauces. The nuggets were crispy and flavorful. The extra hot sauce packs a punch! It was so good! Our service from the bartender was friendly and engaging. Prices were decent for what you get. The parking situation is a little tight and I'm sure it gets super hard to find a spot. I would highly recommend checking this spot out. read more

Chik'n & Mi has been on my Louisville bucket list for years now... Being the ramenheads that we are, my husband and I were looking for a new place to check out with some. This place gives all the cozy vibes. It is inside a house, so the atmosphere is great. Everyone is so friendly here too, which definitely adds to that. They have a bunch of different options on their menu, but I had heard a lot about their fried chicken wings so I decided to try some for myself.... AMAZING! My husband ordered the ramen... the look on his face was enough to tell me that it was just as great. This place has been a staple in this city for a good while now, and I hope it's here to stay a lot longer! read more

I went to Chik'n & Mi tonight with some of my colleagues. I've seen this place many times, wanting to try it, but never have been able to make it until tonight. We started with some chicken and pork belly steamed buns which were ok. One person ordered the Duck Ramen which looked wonderful. She said it was very good. Another colleague ordered the bone-in chicken a little spicy which he really liked and I along with another colleague ordered the small naked chicken bites. I also asked for the sweet soy on the side for dipping. The small was plenty for me. The chicken was fair as it was a little dry for my liking. The real superstars were the sides. We ordered the brussel sprouts and street corn to share. They both were absolutely amazing. Everyone enjoyed those. We were fortunate enough to sit by the fireplace which gave a nicer ambiance. Our waitress was very attentive and the food came out timely. It's definitely worth going back for the share items! Next time I will have to try some of the other share items. read more

This place is difficult to rate. The atmosphere is nice and we were seated quickly (with a reservation). However, the service was very slow. He was very nice, but it took a while for our waiter to come back with sauces / checks. The pork belly buns were so tasty. The bun itself was very soft. The whole thing was full of flavor and melts in your mouth. I ordered the chicken and egg sandwich. The potatoes were spicy and delicious. However, the chicken just lacked flavor (even with sauce). It was very dry and seemed to be more fried batter than chicken. It was difficult to bite into and difficult to chew. My friend ordered the miso pork ramen and also said the meat was not very flavorful. We tried the mango beignets, but again they lacked flavor and were a little hard. I would honestly go back just for the pork buns but that's about it. read more

I did a pickup order and the food was hot and ready when I arrived. What I got: the pot de crème, bonito fries, and the fried chicken sandwich. The chicken sandwich was good and crunchy, not too oily. The flavors from the aioli and kimchi slaw really pulled this together for me and elevated the dish. The bonito fries were beyond delicious, however they pile the bonito flakes on high. If you are unsure if you'd like them I'd stay away. The pot de crème was good at first but then took a turn. I think this is where getting a to go order May have messed it up and allowed it to get warm with the hot food. The berries/almonds/crème was good together but the chocolate was a bit too textured and warm for me. Overall: food was tasty, pickup service was quick and easy, I'd bring a friend back. read more

This is one of my favorite places to go to in Louisville for brunch. It's in a very walkable part of town, with great seating inside, at the bar, and a great patio. The dinner here is delicious, but the brunch is unbelievable. I strongly advise splitting a number of dishes because if you like Asian fusion, you'll want to try almost anything and the portions are generous. We always start with the Breakfast at Tiffany's, which is a mimosa bar with three flavors. Before the main course, I love to indulge in their pork belly steamed buns. I've enjoyed several entrees, including the breakfast burrito, huevos rancheros, and the Benedict. But you can't go wrong with their fried chicken! I usually get small nuggets with potatoes, which also heat up excellently if you can't finish. The service is excellent as well. My wife has a gluten allergy, and they have a separate menu that includes everything she can get. Their servers are knowledgeable and attentive. A great way to start any weekend day! read more

My friends and I went here for brunch Galentines day brunch one Sunday. I didn't even know they had brunch but I was pleasantly surprised and impressed. The variety of foods from traditional brunch items like chicken and waffles and eggs Benedict were massive. I ordered the chicken and waffles which came with home fries and fruit, it was a a lot of food. The place has a lot of flowers, a fire place, plenty of seating and was very bright and beautiful. The staff was great being sure to bring out boxes for all the food we couldn't finish. They were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately I didn't get one picture of the food which means I'm just have to go back! read more

We had been eyeing this place because the reviews were really great. Well, a local couple told us to try it out, so we did. We ordered the Mad Thai Tea it was delicious. The mango beignets....AMAZING!! So good we wanted to order more. And we really enjoyed the curry ramen and chicken noodle soup ramen. We enjoyed all the food except for the chicken, one thing they advertise as a staple in their restaurant. The chicken in the ramen wasn't great. I also ordered the Chicken Benedict, I was excited to have some delicious Korean fried chicken and it was NOT. There was nothing Korean about it, no flavor and no basic seasoning at all. I was really disappointed. McDonald's chicken nuggets tasted better than the chicken on my benedict. Other than the chicken being subpar we enjoyed the service and the ambience of the restaurant. read more

It's been too long! Never again! We made a pit stop after visiting the Butchertown Fair. It was Saturday and technically brunch, which alters the menu a bit. No reservation needed. The patio had several shaded tables. I started with two 5oz beers. It was nice to get a small taste of fruiter beers, and they were great, something I'd never order without an option to try a smaller drink. The fried cauliflower blew us away. Full of flavor and other toppings that paired nicely with it. My son and I split several options and we left nothing on our plates - lettuce wraps, chicken nuggets, pork buns and mango beignets. My husband enjoyed his bowl of ramen. Service was fantastic, and I appreciated the water bottle left at the table. It was so much fun to enjoy the weather and sample the menu. Looking forward to coming back! read more

I'd heard a lot about Chik'n and Mi so I had to come and check it out myself. I got a kimchi mac and cheese with their special, beef pho ramen. Their food was alright. The mac and cheese was good, but there wasn't a lot of kimchi. I wondered what the fusion would be like, and it ended up being mostly a regular Mac and cheese with some shredded kimchi here and there. Other than that, it looked and tasted just like a regular mac and cheese. The beef pho ramen was okay. I'm not a big fan of pho so I may not be the best judge, but it tasted like pho with ramen noodles to me. Unfortunately, I found the broth to be very salty. While their food was alright, I did really enjoy the atmosphere. The servers were all very nice and friendly. It felt like a cozy little space, but had a lot of seating. I was able to find a table right away, and although it seemed relatively busy with music and people talking, somehow it didn't feel loud at all, but like a nice, quiet place. I will probably go back to try their chicken and ramen, and hopefully those will be better. Nonetheless, the food was alright, and the environment was great! read more

To be honest, I've been coveting this place for years and just haven't made the time to go. This week, I MADE time. Guys, when I tell you you HAVE TO GO here, I'm really not kidding. The vibe, the food, and menu, is all amazing. But what really stands out the most, is the staff - they really like each other!!!!! It was amazing watching them work together, laugh together, help each other, and truly work in synchrony. The pork belly bao - I will seriously continue to dream about. The cauliflower was good and had a super delish complex flavor, but I wanted it to be crisper. The corn? Shut the front door, it was sooo good. And the bonito fries..... who the hell even knows what bonito is, really? Delish. That's what it is. Freaking delish. Well was our waiter, and I'll literally go back just because he was so amazing..... go you guys. Not kidding! Better yet- go, and invite me to happy hour with you! I'm dying to go back!! read more
