    SEOUL SPICY CHICKEN SANDWICH
    La'eeqa A.

    One of the best fried chickens in the area. They are better than Dave's and Al's. Holdaak brings the heat and the prices are not bad. The chicken is always tasty and also their smash burgers are good! We've always had good service here. I'm only negative is that the sauce is really good but they charge a lot for the sauces. Seoul spicy chicken is

    SEOUL SPICY CHICKEN SANDWICH

    I stumbled upon Holdaak in Corona while picking up prints from FedEx in the plaza, and I'm so glad I did! The Korean fried chicken sandwich was absolutely delicious--crispy, flavorful, and seriously satisfying. The fries are huge and perfectly paired with the sandwich. Everything was so tasty, and it ended up being such a great surprise find. Definitely a 5-star spot if you're in the area!

    Clean interior, fast and professional service, and a solid chicken. Spice was actually decently spicy, and the crispy exterior lasted even when reheated. I'm glad I stopped by!

    I've been coming here for years the cashiers are so friendly and welcoming the food is delicious the chicken sandwiches and chicken wings are full of flavor and absolutely delicious they also offer daily specials definitely would recommend to anyone

    Came here again for lunch and to take advantage of the discount from showing them my Yelp review. I got the #1 combo with the Seoul Spicy and it was only about $11 after the discount. The combo came with a sandwich, fries, and a drink. The gentleman helping me was super nice and got my order ready quickly. Always get the fries seasoned. They taste amazing. The spice isn't too high on the heat and is actually slightly sweet. The Seoul Spicy was always very delicious. The chicken piece inside was huge and had a lot of radish in it as well. The contrasting textured and flavors were very enjoyable.

    POPCORN CHICKEN
    Trang T.

    We tried this place because we wanted chicken and were semi hungry, too tired to drive with kids so we decided to order via door dash for a late night snack. The order was easy online. The door dash driver waited a bit for it but overall, it was quick to receive the food after ordering. We got the Holdaak original chicken sandwich and popcorn chicken. The sandwich comes with a daikon slaw which added a nice flavor profile to the sandwich of something tangy mixed with pickled onions. Definitely a nice refreshing taste with each bite. The ketchup also had great flavors to it as well, with a hint of spice, which gave it a nice subtle kick. Pairs perfectly with the crispy chicken. The popcorn chicken wasn't as seasoned as I would like it but had a nice crispy texture to it and was fresh. Kids approved and like the crispiness of it. Overall a good late night meal and everything arrived still hot & crispy, which was nice. We'll definitely come through to check out the restaurant in person & try their other items. So far a good first try.

    Bloody 10 PCS ORIGINAL WINGS

    I was willing to give them another try since my first order with them some months ago lacked the daikon which makes a lot of difference. This time I ordered 10 wings and chicken sandwich. The sandwich is mediocre but when you put the daikon, then it's really tasty. I also ordered 10 pcs chicken wings. For me the soy caramel is too salty than what I'm used to but when I bit into 2 wings it was all bloody. I couldn't eat the rest after smelling the bloody wings! Another lesson learned. Never from here. Wing stop is probably better.

    Last night me and Amy wife were really craving a buffalo chicken sandwich... so I saw Holdaak the other day and we almost went to Canes.... But ... me and my Wife both have decided that we don't need to go to Canes anymore lol It's a small little spot with a good amount of seating and fun pun filled quotes and lighting. The chairs are really comfortable lol The service was amazing, I honestly have to give props to Cat and Karim.. I made sure to get their names because it was only them two on staff and they were backed up and getting it all done in a timely manner. Karim made sure to let those who came up know what they were out of so they were not disappointed with ordering it then not being able to get it. Th food came out crispy and delicious and where you would typically have accidents with just two on staff on a busy night these two held their own and took care of everyone the best they could. Seriously cheers to the both of you we see you and see how hard your working. The food... the chicken was crispy, the chicken was juicy, the sauces were perfect , fries on point, and honestly WE CANT WAIT TO GO BACK . I love wings and I'm a loyalists but o a place called fire wings but ... I feel like Holdaak will challenge them pretty good. You fulfilled my every craving we had that night . I'll sum this up the best way possible... if you want something that hits better flavor profiles, better sauces, and delicious chicken you no longer need to go to raising cains... Holdaak is the place to go and they will deliver in the best ways. We will Be back !!! I want some wings

    Stopped by for lunch before heading to school and tried their smash fries for the first time--they were so yummy! The fries and patties were perfectly cooked. I loved the sauce, cheese, and the nice touch of pickles . The place is clean, and the staff is always kind whenever I come in.

    The staff was very nice and kind. They help add and the food was very good. I recommend

    Amazing fried chicken -- super crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, with great flavor. What really stood out was the service: the cashier was very helpful and took the time to explain and confirm their halal authentication, which I really appreciated. It's always a plus to feel confident about what you're eating. Overall, great food, friendly service, and definitely a spot I'll be coming back to.

The banchan was delicious and had a nice variety, including radish stem kimchi, cucumber kimchi, fish cakes, soybean paste with nuts, fried eggplant, and more. Everything tasted fresh and well made. We started with the fried dumplings, which were crispy on the outside and filled with really tasty filling. The soybean stew was packed with flavor and had potatoes, onions, and zucchini--super comforting. The short ribs were juicy and flavorful, especially with a side of rice. The pork cutlet was perfectly crispy, and the dipping sauce added just the right touch of sweetness. Even the salad was good, with a dressing that wasn't too overpowering. They serve hot barley tea and water, and you can buy canned soft drinks if you want something else. Everything we had was delicious--honestly, there wasn't anything I didn't like. Prices were fair, and the customer service was great. Our waitress checked on us several times to make sure we were good and even showed us how to make rice porridge using the hot barley tea and the crispy rice at the bottom of the pot, which ended up being really good too. The inside of the restaurant is very clean, well-lit, and has lots of natural color (tans, brown). It appears to have been recently remodeled. There is plenty of seating and open space. This restaurant is great for groups of all sizes. We'll definitely be back to try more items.

I am used to soon tofu soup having multiple levels of spiciness. Also no raw egg is offered without the soup, this I also found odd. Also, banchan was very disappointing. This is what makes the meal for me. Kimchi was not fermented enough and was a pale orange color, fishcake was not offered without you asking, there were no cucumbers, scallion pancake,seasoned bean sprouts, potatoes, or noodles. The flounder offered was very tasty but again, offered at the end of the meal when we were wrapping up. I'm used to this being offered at the beginning or during meal. I think I would only go back if they ramped up their banchan but I did ask, and they said they won't really rotate their banchan :( staff was very attentive but the food will make or break it for me. Hoping I can retry in the future once they're more established.

My wife and I just had our first Korean BBQ experience, and we loved it. Everything is self-serve, which actually made the experience even better. Cooking the food together at the table made dinner feel more interactive and fun instead of just sitting there waiting for food to arrive. Our favorites were definitely the Spicy Bulgogi, Spicy Chicken, and the kimchi. The meats had amazing flavor and cooked up perfectly on the grill, and the kimchi had that perfect spicy tang that paired really well with everything. What we didn't expect was how intimate the whole experience felt. Since you're cooking and sharing the food together, it naturally made my wife and I talk more and enjoy each other's company instead of just sitting there with our faces buried in our phones waiting for food to come out. It really turned dinner into quality time. Another great surprise was the price -- less than $80 out the door for the two of us, which felt like a great value for such a fun and memorable experience. If you've never tried Korean BBQ before, this is a great place to start. We'll definitely be back.

The flavor of the meats and sides is still really good, they definitely know how to season their food. The problem this time around was the meat itself. It felt like they were skimping on the portion sizes, and the overall quality of the cuts didn't seem as good as it used to be. When you pair smaller portions and lower quality with their recent price increases, it's just not a great look. I still like this place, but it definitely didn't feel like the best value this time around. I'll probably give them another chance, but I hope they step it back up.

Not sure why, but this has unfortunately influenced the star rating for the new business. The differences are night and day.) We have many Korean restaurants in this area. So, when ON Korean Kitchen opened somewhere around 5 months ago in the same location as a poor quality, now defunct, Korean restaurant, I was unimpressed. But then, the rave reviews started rolling in. Seeing they had a nice lunch menu, I thought this could be an opportunity to test the waters with less expensive options. So, today we decided to see how good is REALLY GOOD. They opened at 11. By 11:20 am we were frothing at the mouth in anticipation. First thing I noticed? The other customers were all Korean. YES! Secondly, the server/ hostess was warm, attentive, and friendly. The interior was delightfully fresh and inviting. Great start. The extensive menu is what really impressed me... many traditional dishes that I will never be able to spell, let alone pronounce. Then, there were the different options and preparations for their Korean fried chicken. The pictures were bold and beautiful. Heart be still, I have had a singular passion for good fried chicken since I was a child! But then, oh no, the thin, Kalbi Korean ribs caught my eye. And under the Soups and Stews category, there it was...my husband's favorite of all time, the Beef Rib Soup. It became immediately apparent, I was in a quandry. We had a lot of eating to do... just to make sure, of course. Our meal started with their banchan presentation. There were six, and each was wonderful...pickled cucumber, fish cake, sesame soy marinated pepper and onions ( I think I tasted bonito flakes in this one), sesame oil marinated bean sprouts, traditional Korean potato salad, and lastly... drum roll please...the kimchi. The kimchi was unlike others I've had, with a subtle fish flavor midst all the wonderful, usual kimchi ingredients. Go figure, they make their own. So good! We loved them all. We ordered two skewered meats for starters, one garlic pork belly, one soy glazed chicken. Honestly, these did not make the grade for me, being small, under-seasoned, and in the chicken's case, overcooked. We can move on from ordering these again. The rest of our meal made us downright giddy. The Kalbi and the Beef Rib soup were our final choices. Both turned out outstanding. The Beef Rib soup broth was richer and more flavorful than most we've had in our lifetime. The focus was on the meaty bones, with not too many noodles and two plump jujubes floating on top. Served with steamed rice. This can be found on both the lunch and regular menu. A very wise choice. The Kalbi Ribs, cooked on a sizzling hot, iron platter, were so tender, juicy, and very meaty. The marinade created a lightly sweet and salty glaze, that was finished with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds and green onions. My lunch portion was very generous, and included a cup of flavorful, lightly spicy, clear broth radish soup that I loved! The Kalbi comes with a bowl of steamed rice. A winner! This, too, is both a lunch and dinner option. Some of main entrees are described as serving 2-3 people. Hence, at first glance, while appearing to be quite expensive, they are not. For instance, if you read the menu closely, several of the more "expensive" meals contain a whole chicken. Throw in all the other goodies, rice, refillable banchan, etc, and it's a feast. I never imagined Corona would attract a Korean restaurant of this caliber. And shucks, I missed out on the fried chicken this time around. I can assure you, that will not happen again. Maybe tomorrow? Question is, what will you be doing tomorrow?

Every once in a while they played a birthday tune over the speakers, which was definitely an interesting and fun touch that added to the festive vibe of the evening. The buffet itself has a huge selection, and everyone seemed especially excited about the fresh seafood options. My niece even tried snail for the first time, which impressed me! There's also a large variety of sushi, which many of our guests enjoyed. Some of my personal favorites were the black pepper chicken, green beans, and sautéed mushrooms. Everything else looked delicious too, but I was already full. Next time I'll definitely come prepared with a bigger appetite to really take advantage of the AYCE experience. One thing I wish they offered was more beverage choices. The options were limited to soda fountain drinks, green tea, and unfiltered water, which wasn't the best selection to pair with such a wide variety of foods. There were also plenty of fried comfort foods like pizza and fries, which made it a great place for both adults and kids since there's truly something for everyone. The staff was friendly and attentive, and overall it was a great place to gather with family and celebrate a special milestone.
