Very good chicken and Mac. Fries were also good! I definitely would order additional tender for more chicken but regardless, you'll be full

This is my favorite hot chicken place in the area! The flavoring is so delicious. I love to get the sandwich and tender combo- it is so filling! I also like how you can combine 2 flavors!!! So good, definitely one of my favorite food spots.

10/6/2024 - Sunday Late Dinner :) Halal!!! Ordered: Shosho's Loaded Fries $12.99 (Fries,Habibi Tender(Chopped Up), Mac and Cheese, and Habibi Sauce) Added an Additional Tender $3.75 Heat Level was Mild. It was pretty hot still for Mild. My kids were coughing uncontrollably lol I thought it wasn't going to be that hot cuz if I had pick no heat it would have been not so flavorful. From the picture looks very little but trust me it was hella lot! My kids loved it but it was just too spicy for them. Both less than 3 yrs. They didn't eat at all. It was just me and my husband. Overall we loved it, the spices mixed in with Mac and cheese and the heat level mixed together was super good and bit desi style to it! Will come again and try their other items on the menu.

If you a big back then this is the place for you ! Chicken sandwiches are bomb too

Finally! An amazing hot Chicken place has opened up! The place is very nice and clean inside, first time I seen that location being used that well. The man taking my Oder was very nice and even the cook helped with my questions which was awesome. By far the best hot chicken I've tried around here. Each tender was honestly like a chicken breast. Super super juicy and flavorful. The fries are very well done as well. My picture doesn't do justice. I had already ate one tender and some fries. I believe the portions you get for the price are on point. Usually I feel like hot chicken places are way too pricey but this one wasn't that bad. The previous hot chicken place here was way too pricy and was not good. Please do yourself a favor and go try out this place!

Finallyyyyyy fried tenders chicken with amazing, delicious seasoning and crusty. The order was not late they are very helpful. The place is cozy and clean. My order was combo 1 which is 2 sandwiches with fries and sauce and 4 pieces meal which is 4 tenders with sauce , fries , toast and coleslaw. The quantity and quality was very good. I love it and i will go again for sure.

the food already took WHILE to come out and at some point was just sitting on the counter while the guy at the front was busy watching tv, and the cook had to come back and remind him that my food was ready while i was waiting forever, and he continued to hand me my food while looking at the TV without acknowledging me. subpar customer service and the food was okay.

Not going to lie, drove to Corona to go to Byrds, which is no longer here and was replaced by Habibis. The inside of the restaurant is nice, I like their slogan and thought the establishment was clean. They currently don't have any fountain drinks (the cashier said they opened like 13 days ago, so to be expected when starting out), and have limited bottled drinks (sprite, Fanta and water). The service was fine. It was quiet inside and there were a few people waiting for to-go orders, but the staff was friendly. We ordered the 2 slider combo and the loaded fries, both with mild spice, and it was definitely spiced well. The flavors were good, and the Mac and cheese on the loaded fries was delicious. The chicken was crispy, tender, and flavorful and the fries and sauce were good as well. The loaded fries are definitely big enough to share! The only thing I might do different next time is get the Mac and cheese on the side so the fries stay crispy. Overall we really enjoyed it and would go back if we were in the area.

Service was so amazing and the place itself is a cute little shop with funny accents. The food was a little over seasoned and salty for my taste. However, the spice is good and everything tastes great. The chicken is tender but crunchy. I tried putting honey on the chicken too but that also wasn't for me. In my opinion, their sauce is better than Cane's. My boyfriend says this place is similar to Dave's style. They also have interesting milkshakes that I want to try next time!

Nice chicken sandwich with huge piece of chicken. Medium hot was plenty hot for me. The portion was vert genourus. My only comment would be the atmosphere of the inside was not exciting to me and the person taking my order did explain the menu with excitement especially after I told him it was my first time visiting. ...

this place is off the chain! by far the best hot chicken spot in the riverside/corona area. i always order doordash from them and is always consistent. they never lack on flavor or their portions! thank you to habibi's hot chicken and being able to supply the best hot chicken in corona :)

Service is really good, and the food is amazing. I don't usually like coleslaw but this place has the best slaw I've ever had. It tastes so good. Everything is very flavorful. Great prices and totally worth it. Portions are also very well.

I've never written a bad review and it sucks this is the first. 3 stars is for the food being good. We've seen this place multiple times driving by and were excited to visit. We order the combo 1 and i had noticed there was coleslaw and habibi sauce, which i'm usually not a fan of, so i requested no slaw, no sauce, and add cheese (+$1) TO GO. the younger cashier upfront kept scrunching his face like that was weird but we waited about 5-10 mins, he brought two plates to us, we only ordered one (one had mac and cheese, which we had not ordered), and we told him that wasn't ours. he gave it to the couple behind us and went back, grabbed a to go bag, handed it to another lady, and then went back to the cook and asked him for our order. the cook kept staring at me and it seemed they were going back and forth, until the cashier asked me what we had ordered and they had to remake it. i asked the cashier to make sure he had reminded the cook of my requests so he turned around, told him my requests and said "that's what he said," like it was funny, as the cook was smiling. he also began to tell me he had brought me the plate the first time, like it was my fault we were waiting so long. again, we ordered it to go 1, and 2 it had an additional plate we hadn't ordered. at that point i was frustrated and my girlfriend stated we wouldn't come back. to end, we waited another 5 minutes the food was brought and to put the cherry on top, it was missing the cheese. customer service was definitely disappointing and makes me not want to come back.

I doordashed so I'm not sure what the inside looks like but it was packaged and given to me nicely. I got the sandwhich and the chicken tender and fries combo then a side of Mac and cheese. I will say skip on the Mac and cheese for $4.99... it literally tasted like a box of Krafts Mac and cheese with pepper. It was not good and I won't be getting that again. I was surprised to see the chicken tender had a piece of toast under it so that was good. The combo had a lot of food actually and the portion was very good. The chicken is very juicy and crispy and had a lot of flavor, the pickles are a good touch and their sauce is actually really addicting. Their signature sauce tasted like a little upgrade to raising canes sauce, with a little kick to it. I did get mild for the chicken and it was kinda spicy already. I think the medium would've been the perfect amount of heat. My favorite is the chicken sandwich tho, the bun and the slaw and pickles all balances really well with the flavored chicken. The crinkle fries were also nice and crispy and lightly seasoned, not too salty. Next time I would get the medium spice level chicken sandwhich and fries with extra sauce and extra pickles. The service was good, I asked for extra pickles and sauce and I didn't know it was extra but they said for this one time they would give it for me. When I tell you the sauce is worth it, it's worth the extra $. I'm just disappointed in the Mac and cheese, they need to change that. Overall I'd go again! read more

I'm really sorry to say this, but my experience was a big disappointment. $70 for three loaded fries and three drinks milkshake, which felt really high especially since the mac and cheese had almost no flavor and watered down. The portions of fries were small, and the chicken was just okay. Unfortunately, the worst part was that I ended up with a stomach ache afterward. read more

I was in the area to pickup some xmas presents and was looking for dinner before heading back home…read more Found this spot with high ratings and korean fried chicken near me. Many places now are charging like $2/wing so I wanted to see how theirs was priced at $11.99 for 8 wings with an order of fries! I realize I should have paid the upcharge for flavored wings as the basic wings since the original wings were plain. (I guess I should have known, I was expecting more of a house special seasoning of sorts) I was given ranch and ketchup so I wasn't completely up a creek. The fries were actually also very solid, not plain fries but seasoned. When I called it in, I could tell it was legitimate Korean owned by the accent and was greeted by the friendly owner when I went to pick up. Place was really clean but empty on a Wednesday night. GO VISIT THIS PLACE! Totally worth a try. Keep this mom and pop place open to serve the community authentic korean quality eats!

Late review! Been…read morehere to the new location twice since Chimaek has been open and it's always a rad each time. The family and I have been long time customers since the previous location and we're honestly soo glad Chimaek has their own spot now! The menu is more extensive and haven't been let down yet. Once they've get the okay from the city for the alcohol license, this spot will be poppin'. Still, go anyways. Service is great! I went with the fried wings, I'm surprised I ate the them all! The parents got the tenders and boneless nugs, loved them. My sister loved the bulgogi beef. Music switches between KPOP and KRNB depending on the day you go. KPOP videos play on one screen while sports play on the other. There's also a tiny gacha section when you first walk in. Parking is located behind the building.

I ordered tuna gimbap and the hot stone bibimbap. I was delightfully surprised and grateful when soup came at the same time as my banchan since I was really hungry. Just as I was finishing my soup, the bibimbap arrived. The bibimbap was so delicious! I loved that fact that I also got a bottle of gochujang along with it so I could add as much as I wanted as I ate my meal. I really wish jajangmyeon was on the menu, I feel like that is a dish that is pretty popular and with the lack of Korean restaurants in the IE, it's a dish I would've thought would be on the menu. The menus are very simple and don't have pictures, but there are plenty of tvs displaying pictures of menu items. The staff were really friendly and attentive and the ambiance was nice. I'd definitely come back the next time I'm craving bibimbap.

Kids, in general, love chicken, be it wings or tenders. And let's not forget the fries. So…read morenaturally, we look for places like this. We have two hungry, fast growing munchkins who come to Grandma and Grandpa's house after school sometimes. It's so much easier than cooking. This place has evolved over the years. It's not just chicken anymore. Regrettably, almost everything here is fried, but they are expanding their menu to appeal to a bigger audience, including fried or steamed seafood, burgers, and a couple Middle Eastern selections. While most items are not exactly healthy, the one nice aspect is to have choices of how big you want to make your order of fried whatevers. So we got 6 tenders to make sure the hungry boy would manage to live until dinnertime. Our dainty granddaughter chose a fried shrimp plate, and two gyro wraps were for us two adults. It was all good. The tenders were moist and fairly big, and got a major thumbs up, the shrimp were beautifully plump with a light crispy coating, and the gyros meat was a nice surprise, not the rectangular, cookies cutter meat slices that come from a big food supplier. This gyro meat seemed more authentic. It came in chunks and had a nice herbal profile. They each came with a big pile of French fries. The hollow legged little people were appeased and very happy. This is a small operation. Plan on waiting a bit longer than the ubiquitous fast food joints. In all, I think you will be pleasantly surprised, just as I was.

We got the lamb & chicken platter, which has the meat over rice with lettuce topped with cucumber & tomatoes. Sauce can be requested on the side so we got the white and green sauce on the side since we weren't sure of the spice level in the sauce. The white sauce is good and subtle flavor and the green sauce was good as well and had a kick to it which was really nice when mixed in with the white sauce. I recommend that if you like spicy food. If not, just stick to the white sauce. The meat was tender & flavorful. I wish they added more cucumber & tomatoes on top of the lettuce. The amount we did get was good and refreshing with the lettuce provided. Definitely will eat this again & make it there in person to check out the vibes.

The menu covers a lot of ground -- nuggets, wings, sandwiches, wraps, bowls -- so picky eaters are covered. Service is hit or miss depending on who's at the register, but it doesn't ruin the experience. One tip: get there early if you want the baklava. It's delicious and sells out fast. Clean, quick, family-friendly, and a little something for everyone. A solid go-to.

Wait Staff: I wish I took the name of our waitress because she was awesome, funny and knowledgeable about the menu. All waiters/waitresses were great. Drinks: Unfortunately I didn't get any drinks because we kept seeing the brightly colored drinks and flights being served around us and I was jealous, they all looked awesome. Food: This is where it gets good because the food was A+++mazing. We started off with just the salsa, chips and for a nice surprise, some warm beans. The salsa brought a tear to my eye because it was soooo good. Luckily, my son doesn't eat salsa so I drank it all down. The chips were perfectly fresh and crispy. Guac: So, our waitress brought us some off the menu guac, and, WTF, why are they hiding this recipe from the rest of the world. I literally got into a fist fight with my son because he was trying to take it from me (not really) but I didn't want to share. The presentation was so cute too. Plantains + chips + guac = heavan Fajitas: I ordered fajitas and all boxes were checked, quantity, quality, and taste. I ordered the chicken and it was juicy and thick and perfectly seasoned. Steak tacos: My kid ordered the steak tacos and we brokered a deal to trade some steak for chicken and this was the best deal made since the New Deal (American history). Steak was chunky and juicy and fresh! The only problem with this place is that it is very far from my house as I was in the 'hood for my kids basketball tournament. If I am in the area you better believe that I will be back. Oh yeah, and very affordable for the upscale dining.

The bartender took our drink order, and we received chips and salsa, which were very good. However, the bartender seemed a bit distracted, forgot about us, even though it wasn't a busy night. We decided to give it another chance since so many people seem to enjoy this place. We visited again, and we ordered a few drinks, received chips and salsa, then placed our food order. We waited for a bit and ordered a few more drinks. Unfortunately, after waiting about an hour, we never received our meal or any update on its status. We eventually decided to close out our bill. At that point, we noticed we had been charged for the meal we never received, as well as drinks that were not served. When we brought this to the bartender's attention, they raised their voice and told us we were wrong, which caught us by surprise. I understand that things can get busy, but a lack of communication and being spoken to disrespectfully is unacceptable. A simple check-in or update would have made a big difference. Based on this experience, we're unlikely to return. We really wanted this to work, but maybe you had to be regular customer to get better service?! We tried, but this place is a solid No for us.

We usually end up driving out to Rowland Heights for Chinese food, so having something like this down the street in Corona is nice. The pan fried shao mai was probably the surprise favorite for me since I've never had it prepared that way before. The xiao long bao wrapper was a little thicker than what I'm used to, but it was still good. Honestly, nothing we ordered disappointed. Food came out pretty quickly too, so even though there's usually a line, it moves faster than you'd expect.
