    --Location/Parking-- Located in Hardware restoration shopping center with a Shake Shack and other smaller businesses. Plenty of parking, I recommend parking near the Hardware storation store because the parking allows for easy access in and out. --Ambience-- Similar to other Dave's Hot Chicken except the side entrance if you enter from that direction, customers may end up missing the ordering line setup on the left side of the restaurant. Only thing I wish they would fix their touch screen so you can see when you order was available. --Service/Staff-- Shoutout to the cashier with hijab that gave me recommendations on my order from spice level to customizing the side orders. --Products/Service-- Spicy bites and the sliders were the show stopper. Recommendations from the cashier helped narrow down the selection. I recommend speaking to her before placing your order. She was fast and efficient in getting the line through. I wish there were more dedicated employees like her. --Capacity-- Indoor capacity can hold 60+ people with plenty of seating. --Overall-- Recommended for all hot chicken lovers, the spice and sauce from their secret receipe and mixture with ranch sauce is the sweet spot.

    So many options... and they even have shakes!!

    I am a die-hard Chick (and Cane's) girl but ooh-ee, Dave's is smoking hot-good!! The chicken tender slider (I opted for "hot" which is face-tingling spicy good) is DELISH. - My hubby liked the way milder "medium". The fries... the sauce...a perfect pollo trifecta. I feel like I'm cheating on my perennial faves but I WILL be back. Staff was friendly, the food sublime and the ambiance and murals delightfully quirky!! Wonder if they sell that funky chicken in a plush...that squeaks.

    Had a late night craving and stopped by here and they were close to closing but the food was soo fresh and tasted amazing ! The people where so nice and let's not talk about to way they painted up the walls! Def plan to stop again.

    Blocked off drive thru despite them being open

    Never met ruder cashier and front staff. Please do not say you're open until 11 then refuse to take orders. It's giving "you're black we won't serve you" energy!

    Was it a HIT or MISS…read more Well...it was a HIT straight on the bullseye It was fantastic. I happen to be shopping in Alpharetta and I had seen a TikTok review about his place so I decided to try it out. This establishment specializes in chicken. Everything is Korean chicken. I had the chicken sandwich with fries. This thing was huge. There is no way anyone is going to be able to bite down into the entire sandwich at once. I had to break it up into 2 pieces. It has this special sauce and grated pickles. It was so good. The bun was soft and the chicken was crispy. This was the kind of sandwich that would knock Popeyes chicken sandwich out of this atmosphere !!! The place was clean. It was quite a few people enjoying their lunch when I arrived. I was able to get a parking space directly in front of the restaurant and parking is free. You can't miss it and you don't want to miss it.

    I've heard so much about kimchi red! I just never got the chance to try it until now. The…read morerestaurant itself is on the smaller side, so when there are a lot of people, it can get pretty cramped. From my experience, the service is self-serve! Someone brings you the food, but you put up your plates and stuff at the end of your meal. They also have a station for you to grab your own to-go containers and bags. The first thing to be aware of is to not let any of the photos fool you! The portions are very generous. Many people around me ended up taking to-go boxes (myself included). I got the Kang Nam chicken, the half-sized tteokbokki, and the kimchi fried rice. The chicken was crispy and tender, and the white sauce with onion was incredibly delicious. The kimchi fried rice was also very flavorful as well. The spices balance very well together. The only thing I wouldn't recommend is the regular tteokbokki. It wasn't bad per se, but it also wasn't good either. I think there are better places to get tteokbokki, but no worries, their focus and strength here is obviously in their fried chicken. I would come again and would recommend this place to other people.

    Calling all vegans - come here quick!…read more This place is amazing! It starts with next level customer service. I've never felt so taken care of. They walked me through the menu, offered to customize anything, looked up their vegan cheese name, and more. The owner was amazing - and so was the staff. They were friendly, accommodating, and had some of the best customer service I've experienced in the last five years. It is worth a visit just to celebrate the team. I saw the comments about the space being small. A lot of people do take out and we were able to sit on the covered patio with our dog. 100% win here too. As a vegan, you get used to standard food, but that is what makes CPH so special. Coming from the northeast, I love &Pizza and the Jain sauce has a little sweetness like their sauce, but it is more elevated and has a nice spice to it. If you like spicy margarita sauces, this is for you. We tried the veggie per the owner's recommendation as it is a popular vegan option. We also tried a curry-based vegan pizza with cauliflower and potatoes. Get ready for that spice! It was like eating a bowl of curry! Delicious! And the vegan gluten free crust is a perfect thin crust. It didn't come out burnt, etc. It was just right. The Daiya cheese was also melted, which is sometimes an issue at other pizza places. It was delicious cold and hot/right out of their oven. My party also tried the sweet potato fries that are better than local competitors. They have the spicy ketchup to give you that little kick. I talked my party into going full vegan so I don't have feedback on regular pizzas, but it is a must stop for vegans. I realize this is an extremely positive review. But it was well-deserved. I've been traveling a lot recently, eating at fancy restaurants, etc. and I prefer the experience I had here. Worth the drive and a try.

We ordered take-out, so I can't comment on their service or ambiance, but the pizza (what I was most excited for), unfortunately, didn't really stand out to me. We ordered two different flavors: desi BBQ chicken and the classic butter chicken. We also ordered a side of the tandoori wings just to see what it was like. I had really high expectations, but overall it was just alright. I don't know if I would come again, but I can see myself coming here if I'm in the area and/or I have a rare occasion where I'm really craving this specific thing.

    The food here is genuinely excellent--some of the best Korean fried chicken I've had in Atlanta…read more The skin is incredibly crispy, the meat is tender and juicy, and the chicken is clearly butchered and cooked with care. The sauces are a real highlight, especially the gochujang-based one, which was absolutely phenomenal. They're generous with the sauce, too, which adds even more flavor to an already well-executed dish. That said, it's hard to ignore the price point. This is easily the most expensive Korean fried chicken spot I've been to. While the quality justifies the cost to an extent, it's still a noticeable jump from other similar places. And while the chicken is very good, it's not necessarily the best in Atlanta--though it's definitely in the top tier. Another thing that stood out was the lack of lower-cost or smaller portion options. There were only half and whole birds available, with no quarter bird or sandwich options, which makes it difficult for someone looking for a more affordable or lighter meal. It feels like they're missing an opportunity to appeal to a broader lunch crowd. In short: it's pricey, but you're getting high-quality, expertly prepared Korean fried chicken. Just be prepared to spend a bit more--and maybe come hungry.

We have eaten at the Suwanee/Johns Creek location so many times. I've taken my family when they're visiting from out of town. This location is inside the forum, and it's in a cool little "food hall" where there are many offerings of different cultures, cuisines, and options. However, we wanted to avoid the mess on Medlock Bridge Rd so we chose to go from Duluth down to the Forum/Politan Row. Parking is always hit or miss in the lot there, but it's free. There is a bar in the middle of the hall if you're so inclined to indulge. Really cozy and I imagine it's busy when there's a giant lunch rush or dinner rush. We went around 3. Josh was at the counter, talking us through the food. We have eaten so many times here but it never hurts to hear someone talk about the offerings. You can't get Mala flavor here, or buldak (I think) versus the other locations. My buddy is an honorary Korean. He loves Korean food, all kinds- and he wanted to try the K fries, along with the kimchi fried rice. We always order just wings so that the fry time is shorter than a full chicken. So we ordered the chef special- spicy. Food came out about 12-15 minutes later, and it was picture perfect! We never had the fries before and let me tell you they are so crispy even with the toppings. As you continue to eat these toppings still work their way down to the lower level. But for those who don't like Kimchi, get a side of plain fries- they're that good! The kimchi fried rice is always spectacular. Beautiful fried egg on top, with a runny yolk that will mix in with the temperature and spicy hot fried rice. It's never a bad idea to get this with your wings. Also, you have the option to get the chicken not tossed and sauced- can dip into sauce if you want to maintain crunch and texture. But, fully sauced still delivers with flavor and somehow even after 20 minutes of eating the wings were still hot in the middle. We know that the spice level runs hotter than you think, and Josh warned us about that too- but we went with the spicy wings. It's so hot out, we were tired from working out, and now we were sniffling and drinking lots of water! Next time, we will go medium. I haven't learned my lesson bc once I ordered medium for my nieces and nephews and they were mowing the food down but the spice was painful for them (12, 10, and 6 at the time). Josh was telling us that sometimes you can order chicken fried rice instead of the Kimchi fried rice for a change in spice level- made sense. He's a good dude. Easy to talk with and knows his stuff. I'll be back here, we decided next time to mix up some of the different foods from the many stands and just go for a big potluck with friends next time. But we will center it around Kimchi Red! We had a TON of leftovers, and Josh gave us boxes lined with parchment paper (beautiful touch) so we could split everything and have an entire meal once again in the coming days. A giant "THANK YOU" to Josh and the kitchen team here at Kimchi Red Politan Row in the Forum. It's great to see Korean culture and good grow in popularity and places and people like this team here help that positive momentum! Support small businesses! See my photos with the review!
