    I had the best fried chicken at here when I was driving thru Downey and it was such a delicious surprise. Everyone by now has tasted Korean Fried Chicken but what makes this spot different are the flavor combinations, grilled chicken options, sandwiches, their SECERT MENU (ask for KEVIN) and my absolute favorite is the Langsaeb Chicken which is simply cut fried chicken thighs and covered in most delicious tangy, spicy, slightly sweet green sauce. It's hella spicy but so addictive if you love THAI FLAVORS. Also don't be afraid of the Gim aka black fried chicken because it's coated in roasted seasoned seaweed which gives it an extra crunch and umami.

    I love their Fullerton location so wanted to try this Downey location when they opened. This location is different than their Fullerton one because it was more basic. Their menu didn't include a lot of items the Fullerton one has and their service was different as well. Service was great but you get more sit down service at the other location. This was definitely way more casual. I came with one other person for lunch on a Saturday and it was busy but not bad. For food we both got their 8 piece and shared a fishcake soup. For their 8 piece they allow for 2 flavors. I went with the TNT and Mala Gala since I wanted something spicy. The TNT was more of a dry rub and the mala gala had a slight sichuan flavor. Both were good but honestly a little under whelming for me. They were both less spicy than their other location. But they were fried perfectly. The person I came with got their original flavor and also felt it was alright. The fishcake soup was alright but also kind of lacking in flavor. The inside is super causal with tables and chairs. You order at the front and they will bring it out to you. They have gloves, ketchup, and utensils for you to grab. Parking was easy since it's located in a strip mall and share a parking lot.

    First time here and quite impressed! The rice was just a little stale/old. I ordered the chinbop which comes with 4 wings, two scoops of steamed rice and 6 dumplings! Portions were huge! I didn't finish the rice. The dumplings were hot and cooked well. I ordered the original wings and all were perfectly crisped! The service was great since I went at a later lunch time. They brought the food right out to me which I appreciated! Ambience was nice and clean. I would definitely like to visit the fullerton location though because it seems to offer more!

    When it comes to Korean fried chicken, there are some that do it justice. This place definitely hits the spot. The chicken is delicious and flavorful. I had the chicken tenders with the honey luv rap and red disco flavors. You certainly can't go wrong with those flavors. And getting the largest size allowed me to eat it for multiple meals because it was a massive portion size.

    I am so conflicted with this place. Food was legit good, not amazing but solid. Fresh fried wings with some unique flavors. Key point here, "some". Just some humble words of suggestion, this place needs a bigger menu. Fries is not enough, and def more entrees. I like the fact this place has a Music theme, but it feels half-assed. So some flavors on the menu have music references, but not all. This place opened right after another KFC place that was there after covid. I asked the server if this was new ownership or a re-brand. Didint really get a clear answer. Back to the food. I tried the Mala Gala & Red Disco wings. Both were fire. Samba fried were also yummy as well. Like I said earlier more apps and some Chimkin Sandos would totally change the menu, and maybe some more flavor options for the KFC wings. Plenty of parking right in front, located in the Downey Landing shop area behind the Benihana.

    Back at one of the best k chicken spots. So let's see if they're pretty good eh or ew. The playlist and vibes here are on point and everything is fried to order. This time I got their laseng chicken set, tnt chicken sando, and 8 piece wings with their mala gala, red disco, anchovy, and seaweed one which I was my fave last time. All the chicken here was amazingly crispity crunchity and paired well with their made in house sauces. The laseng chicken set came with soft steamed broccoli topped with like a mayoy drizzle, crunchy sweet pickled radish, sticky rice, and a fried chicken cutlet topped with like a spicy, jalapenoy, limey sauce. The tnt chicken sando had a soft chewy bun, crunchy briney pickles, was decently spicy and lowkey reminded me of buffalo sauce. The mala gala wings had peppery spicy flaves, the red disco was more like a sweet spicy sticky situation, and the anchovy one was really savory, salty with a light fishy essence but nothing offensive. Overall this place is still pretty good. Laseng chicken set $15.99 Double TNT chicken sando $15.99 8 pc wing $17.99

    9/27/25: LEMON CURRY FRIES
    Trish B.

    Came here on a Saturday evening found parking infront of the Handle's Ice Cream and walked over. Greeted when I walked in and allowed time to look at the menu. Ordered the 6 wings -- half Lemon Curry & Honey Luv Rap and Fries w/ Lemon Curry seasoning on top. Wait time was not an issue. Samplings of some sort of Chex mix was offered. I took in the aesthetics of records on the wall and various radios mounted around the pickup counter. Super cool. The issue was the flavoring of my food. The fries and half of my wings tasted like the chicken flavoring/ seasoning packet you put in your top ramen. This threw me completely off and I didn't like that. My fries were hot and fresh and I liked the flavoring of the Honey Luv Rap. If I were to return I would stay clear of the "Lemon Curry" anything because it just reminded me of chicken seasoning packet for top ramen which was disappointing.

    The food here was really good! My husband and I both got the 2 piece chicken tender combo with fries and a drink. I was a little dubious about only 2 pieces, but they were a good size - in fact, I didn't finish mine. We both got the honey soy flavour but there are at least 6 different flavours to choose from with varying levels of heat. Fries were also a generous size and very fresh and hot! The interior is very cute; the walls are decorated with vinyl records and album covers, with small transistor radios by the register. Service was so-so and unfortunately the entire time we were there (lunch time on a weekday with a lot of other businesses around) we were the only customers. Please try this place so they don't go under! You won't be sorry!

    We had their fried chicken for the first time last July at the Fullerton branch, and my husband hasn't shut up about it since. He tells everyone how life-changing their chicken is. Now that we're back in LA, of course we will have some of their fried chicken. We hit this branch because it's 10 miles closer than Fullerton. Pulled up around noon on a Sunday and this place was empty. Vibe here is more "quick bite" than "hangout spot," unlike Fullerton which feels like a chill fried chicken lounge (if that's a thing). We got the Honey Luv and Disco Red wings, plus the curry lemon popcorn chicken. Food came out hot, fast, and totally delicious. Still a solid 5/5, but next time we'll drive the extra miles for the Fullerton vibes.

    TENDER 10 PCS
    Nick C.

    I'm a chicken tender connoisseur and this is the best chicken tender I've ever had. I ordered the 10 piece chicken tender honey luv trap, red disco, and original. The chicken itself was massive, meaty and had a thin layer of breading that was very crispy but had a crispy snap to each bite. The honey luv trap had a nice subtle sweet flavor with a hint of soy; the red disco was sweet and spicy similar to the Thai Aroy-D sauce and original was plain. The ratio of chicken meat to breading is exactly what you want, generous, I also think the sauce could be heavier because there's so much chicken meat (a good problem to have). The restaurant was clean and vibrant and the owner Chloe is sweet and the service was amazing. I look forward to going back!

    LARGE POPPIN CHICKEN
    Matthew K.

    Summary: Super super crispy chicken, really friendly service and plenty of sitting room inside. Easily fits around 20+ people and the decor in the front is pretty cool. Full food & sauces: Super crispy popcorn chicken, when ordering I was told this is the crispiest popcorn chicken with a emphasis on the texture. She also was very nice and gave me 3 different sauces (honey, jalapeño, and ranch) and also recommended having the sauce on the side. Personally for me, the chicken was really really crispy, but this can partially offset the flavor of the chicken too. At times it felt like it was just dominantly batter. Now the serving size is pretty good so no matter what at normal appetite you should be good for a full meal / shareable snack. 7.2/10 Honey: The honey sauce wasn't bad, a good flavor of sweet and savory that wasn't too overpowering but still noticable. 5.5/10 Jalapeño: Nice small kick from the jalapeño, like a little spicy / savory flavor. This one is definitely more potent then honey and more flavorful 6/10 Ranch: standard ranch, nothing crazy. Note: Sauce sizing isn't bad for dipping, to be honest I normally like dipping but the sauce sizes are too small to really coat the chicken and makes me debate is getting it coated instead would benefit the flavor profiles.

    Great fried chicken! The wings are huuuuge I got 6 but I could've done ok with just 4. Plenty of flavor options. The ones we got were good but I would probably not get the seaweed one again. Good fries but I expected a lot more kimchi and cheese for the price. Service was great. Plenty of parking. Decor is like a record store feel.

    This establishment used to be running chicks and it is located in the Downey promenade close to handels ice cream. I wonder if the name sounds better in Korean I'm not sure if it's a lie literal translation. The place is decorated really nice. I don't like Korean wings very much but the different flavors did peek my interest. It may be a little better than running chicks I guess there are not so fried and maybe have more flavor. I actually went because I saw the menu had anchovy fries. But it's just the oil and not much of it. They still were good. It would have been better with actual pieces of anchovies, but then again that's an acquired taste not everybody would like it. I on the other hand would have loved it! I may go back to try the seaweed flavor wings, I believe that's their signature flavor. It sounds very interesting.

This location used to be two separate restaurants but is now combined into one, offering new remodeled facilities and a hybrid menu combined from the OG menu. We tried the smash burger and the fried chicken sandwich combos, the fries were amazing when fresh and I believe the bun could be better but overall had all the ingredients to a good smash burger; warning, it is mustard fried patty. The real star was the fried chicken sandwich, the fry on it was thin but crispy with flavor. To pair, we enjoyed the Chamoy lemonade and Shaken Monkey shake which will be very welcomed this upcoming summer. It's hard to match up the popular fast food giants, but I see this place filling in a much needed space. For when you're craving something specific, but don't want to wait in line. In addition, if you have an indecisive family, there is a large array of choices for them to pick. As a disclaimer, they offered a free meal ticket for any visitor that they advertised through social media. However, I did purchase items and had their previous location's food before.

The location on this specific day did not do anything to double check and see if my order was correct, I of course opened the bag myself and come to find out, that it was completely the wrong items. I work across the intersection from this Chick Fil-A, placed my order at 7:19 am, and figured it would be ready within 5-10 minutes tops! Since I only ordered two egg whites, and one piece of grilled chicken breast. However, that wasn't the case, after walking up to the window when receiving my text indicating my order was "ready" I continued to wait an additional 17 minutes... Mind you, while I had been standing there at the pick up window waiting for my mobile order, I witnessed two customers walk up to the order window, placed their orders, and still received their orders before me!? This is what lead me to speak up and voice my displeasure, but even then, I received blank stares from the staff and passive aggressive attitude from one particular staff member. Now I will give credit to one particular employee, who I assume was the shift manager, she did say "sorry for the wait", but at that point, one too many errors had occurred to give me an unpleasant pick up experience. Context on the order: 1.) Chicken breast filet (which they got right) 2.) Grilled chicken, with two egg whites, tomato, and cheese. (They did not handle that correctly) Instead, they bagged up a spicy chicken biscuit sandwich with the breaded chicken breast instead of the grilled breast. To many other people, this review may appear very trivial and no big deal, and I whole heartedly would have felt this way had there been some type of communication and or accountability for the lack of customer service I was provided this morning. I do not recommend ordering mobile here in the morning/opening time, because you would think that with no orders on the line, or no customers there, that you would receive your order in no time, that is not the case at this Bellflower location, but maybe just not with this specific morning crew that worked.
