Best Korean fried chicken around the area! While other places are sometimes too greasy and taste like old frying oil, Koko always tastes very fresh! The batter on the chicken is perfectly crunchy and light without being too thick or greasy or overwhelming the chicken. I like the original chicken wings and the soy sauce wings, but they have a lot of other flavors I need to try. Served with the standard Korean cabbage salad and pickled radish (which is a must). Their radish is delicious. Service is attentive and friendly. Beer and soju also served here with a decent selection of beers on tap, and they have a bunch of TVs to watch sports games. This place is great with a bigger group so you can share wings and other dishes as well as a pitcher of beer! My go to place when I want chicken, beer, and a place to watch the game. read more

I suggest not getting takeout from here. I ordered the soy chicken to-go and was disappointed in its lack of flavor. The wings were small and not crunchy, partly due to it sitting in the box for 15min but still worth mentioning. The radish container also leaked in our bag and didn't realize. It sat in the passenger seat so there wasn't any roughness. I believe it wasn't tightly sealed, causing the car to smell. Based off a friend's recommendation, it's better dining in and we tried to the next day but could not get seated due to the World Cup making them busy. read more

Absolutely the worst Korean restaurant I've been to. I ordered during the World Cup and they informed me that the order will be ready in 45 minutes. I get there and they told me that it would take another 45 to 1 hour to complete. Ridiculous and unprofessional. This place should not be in business! Their food is also not that good based on what I've tried from their other location. Avoid at all cost! P.S. - By the way. This is a real review and not some angry competitor. Look at my profile and you will see that I am a former black Yelp Elite. read more

Service quality has gone down. I've visited this location before and have generally had positive experiences, which is why this visit was disappointing. When my group asked about the gratuity policy, the server's tone came across as dismissive and rude. Based on the conversation, we left with the impression that we were being judged on whether we would tip, which made us feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. I have no issue tipping and normally tip generously, so this experience was unexpected. I've enjoyed this restaurant in the past, but this interaction stood out for the wrong reasons. I visited May 11th, 2026 9:10pm. read more

I am a big fan of koko chicken in GG. Probably would rank that location as being in my all time favorite KFC chicken. Good chicken and service so with the same name I came here on my birthday. Let me just say they remodeled the outside but inside you can still see traces of mold and water spots. I wouldn't have noticed all of this because service was slow, there was no music, and and it was warm inside. So it was a bit uncomfortable and what made it worse was the tap water the waitress gave us had no ice. I'm a fan of no ice enforcement but as to warm restaurants it wasn't great. As to the chicken it was okay. Got the half and half and don't expect equal pieces. The one with the sauce were smaller than the no sauce ones. When asked for a metal spoon we were denied of one for the corn cheese we ordered. I cannot recommend this location but I will for sure endorse and go back to the GG location. read more

I met some friends here for lunch. It's located in a very small strip mall on Orangethorpe next to the 91 freeway. I'd driven by it numerous times and never noticed it until having lunch here. Korean fried chicken is the thing here. We ordered an enormous amount of wings with a variety of sauces on the side. My friends talked about the delicious corn ribs they have here - something I'd never heard of before - so we ordered some of those too. The chicken was really tender and juicy with a perfect crunchy coating that wasn't greasy at all. I ate several pieces without using the sauces as it really doesn't need it. I did try the sweet and sour sauce and their "regular" sauce on a couple pieces, both of which I liked. The soy sauce was okay too but I preferred the other two. The corn ribs (quartered corn on the cob coated with cheese, garlic and...I'm not sure what else) were really delicious. I didn't even mind the corn kernels getting stuck between my teeth. Dang, those things are good! Definitely on the top tier of places that serve wings. I'll be back! read more

Best chicken around. The soy wings are goated. The crispy drumsticks are money but I wish they had a spicy crispy drumstick like Popeyes or Jollibee. No complaints tho just a wish they had it. A super 5 stars for this KoKo!!! read more

This place is poppin Online order available-- not overpriced from regular menu like some other places do on online order forms. But today we were quoted 35 min wait. Ended up being an hour. Also they couldn't get the order right and mixing up with other people's orders And no utensils included. The wings a little more bland than usual and the radish pickle was fibrous and tasted s little off Fries were good though read more

KoKo Chicken & BBQ - Menu as of 4/26/2026 - Chicken Wings Near Me - La Palma, California

Koko's is always the go-to spot for good, reasonably priced Korean Fried Chicken. The quality, crunch, and juiciness of the chicken NEVER disappoints. I also tried the Supreme fries for the first time, and I was taken aback. I am a sucker for their soy garlic, but ordered the original fried wings this time with the sauce on the side. This was a game changer. I would highly recommend this, as you can get the full crunch while still getting your favorite flavor. Service was quick, short, and simple. Great for a night out with some friends! They are open late and can fulfill all your late night cravings. read more

Great Korean fried chicken wings! One of the best I've tried so far. I'm not a huge fan and I seldomly crave for fried chicken. But I do crave Koko's Soy wings! Soy wings flavor is pretty good. Not spicy, a bit sweet and savory for us weak ones that can't handle the spice. Chicken is crispy on the outside and nicely glazed with their Soy seasoning, and tender and juicy in the inside. You can taste the freshness of the chicken and the oil they fry it in. I wished they had more flavors to choose from. Just Soy that's not spicy and sweet and sour that is spicy. I also appreciate they have items and sides in the menu that is not spicy like corn cheese, soy dukpokki, beef bulgogi, etc. Words cannot expressed how disappointed I was at one of the korean fried chicken place I went to celebrate a friend's birthday yesterday, at the Source. After that, I made a stop at Koko to pick up some legit Korean fried wings before heading home. Lol! I appreciate the complimentary nice tube of pickled radish while some places only give you a tiny portion. Good job Koko! Keep up the good work! Note; if is hot in the summer time. AC is very weak. You will be uncomfortable and sticky :-( but thank goodness summertime is almost over. Small parking lot, gets busier on weekends late nights. But the fact this place is so convenient with free easy parking and right near the freeway, I'm always there. read more

Not great. Overall, chicken had the taste of stale oil and was overdone in spots. The rice we had also had a slightly off taste - not sour, or dry, but just a stale flavor in general. The ambiance was pretty average, though with it being a weekday afternoon I had hoped not to have a bunch of trashy music vids playing - may not be the best for bringing kids. On a positive note, the lone server was very friendly. Overall the food was bad enough to place this squarely in the "not coming back" category. read more

"Damn... this... SLAPS!!!" Is a comment I haven't said in a while. What caused this type of reaction? Koko's wings. And the sauces on the side. Yum! Even though Koko's may be a chain I feel like this particular branch was better than the one I've tried in garden grove. My sister got takeout for us yesterday from here and she ordered: 12 pcs of the fried wings with sauces on the side, 12 pcs of the soy wings, ddukboki, and sweet potato fries. Everything was sooo goood. Can't wait to go back. read more

Service was awesome, plenty of room to seat all of us, and they are open all night!! The Soy Chicken is always a first pick along with the delicious shrimp fried rice. Then we order onion rings and their signature Big Mac sauciness cabbage salad. So tasty!!! Thank you Koko Chicken for always being delicious. read more

It's a hit or miss... I've gone here many, many times before. For celebrations, gatherings, dates and even takeout. It seems to hit about 75% of the time. But the 25% is where it gets disappointing. The food is usually pretty good - flavorful, well done and put together, and generous portions. During my most recent visit I ordered the soy wings and the super fries, a simple and common combo I usually get with friends and family. But this last visit is what got me - everything felt like it was drenched in old oil - it felt soggy and soaked in oil that it ruined the flavors overall. I was disappointed because it's something I've ordered plenty of times before and they're usually really good! On a good day, assuming fresh oil and not drenched, I'd recommend their original wings, soy wings, super fries, cheese corn and fried jalapeños. All have unique flavors and a good blend of what you're looking for. The service here is typically pretty good. They're usually good at checking in, bringing you your items in a timely manner, making sure everything's ok, etc. and I'd say their service is a bit more consistent than their food. The ambiance here gives Korean pub (as it should). It's sometimes loud but not as loud as their other locations (like Buena Park and garden grove). My friends and I do like that they usually play kpop, so that's a plus for us. Overall, I'd still recommend this place. Their food is usually consistent, but once in a while you may come in on a bad day or just hit a bad batch. It won't deter me from coming back, though! read more

A great Korean fried chicken spot in La Palma. Their soy garlic wings are the star of the show with how tender and flavorful the sauce is. The complementary radish and salad help lighten up the grease of the wings. And you gotta get the corn cheese on the side to go with the meal. The staff were so attentive to refill the radish and whatever else we needed. I called ahead to make a huge group reservation for 20+ people on a Sunday evening so this spot is great for large groups! They're under construction, but that don't affect how they are on the inside. read more

One of the better KFC's in the game these days. I don't know if all the KoKo restaurants are connected but this one is delicious. They made this one feel like a drinking establishment but I come for the chicken and sides. Come to think of it, they all feel like drinking establishments. Try the zucchini fries, they come out piping hot. read more

Late night hunger pangs call for a quick run to KoKo Chicken & BBQ! This place opens until 2am and has the perfect late-night chill Korean pub vibe to close out an activity filled day. The matchup: 10 hungry boys and girls vs. 32 KOKO chicken wings, 1 KOKO strip salad, and 1 corn cheese. The chicken wings were well-seasoned, crispy, and hot from the frier! The chicken wings were introduced well with the corn cheese appetizer and paired well with the light and refreshing salad side. When chomping on these wings at that hour, one cannot help but say, "Wow, that really hit the spot." Overall, hunger super satisfied before heading off to a restful evening. read more

KoKo Chicken & BBQ - KOKO Fried Wings (12 Pieces, Parmesan) - Chicken Wings Near Me - La Palma, California

Anyone who knows this place knows it is the most reliable late-night Korean fried chicken place there is. The chicken is so fresh and juicy, and the batter used is flaky, soft crispy, and not greasy at all. Great place if you're looking for plain fried chicken, especially if you're tired of eating super sweet or saucy kinds. The size of the tenders and drumsticks are huge too. I've tried all the different tteokbokki from here and all of them are delicious with generous portion sizes + not too spicy if you're sensitive to that. It's open late and the perfect place to get midnight munchies with friends while debriefing the day. Chill ambience with K-pop music videos playing on the big screen, and the waiters are all nice. Don't forget to ask for complementary cabbage salad! read more

KoKo Chicken & BBQ - Rose tteokbokki, classic tteokbokki, kimchi pancake, and drumsticks. SOOO GOOOOD!! - Chicken Wings Near Me - La Palma, California

Tried out KoKo Chicken as I was craving some solid KFC - Korean Fried Chicken. Based on the Yelp reviews, this place was legit. Ordered via phone for pickup which would be ready in approx 20 mins. Got to the resto ahead of the 20 min timeline so I paid for my order and waited for about 7 mins. I am guessing they forgot to tell me right when my food was ready because when I was handed the bag, I could feel the box of chicken was warm but not hot. Took my 12 piece soy wings with accompanying moo (pickled radish cubes) to go and tucked in right when I arrived home. Taste was good - chix not dry and the exterior had a nice coating of soy sauce. The wings weren't crispy or crunchy and I get that the fried chix is tossed in a wet sauce that can make the coating lose its crunch, but other places have been able to maintain the crisp despite being slathered in sauce. The not so crispy coating kept falling off of the wings when eating. I also felt the chicken itself under the skin lacked seasoning. Also, personal preference - I would have liked the soy flavor to have had a punch of garlic, but that's just me. Overall, a pretty good KFC experience that satisfied my craving. read more

Great fried chicken!! Always take out and it takes time for your order because it's fried fresh and not sitting under a lamp keeping warm as some other places It's not cheap but always good we've been going there for a while, if you want good fried crispy chicken'n read more

I have to admit.. I'm addicted to Koko's. First time I try Koko's was at Garden Grove/ Westminster. I also tried the Buena Park location and now the 3rd restaurant. Hopefully, they will open a restaurant in San Diego soon . The restaurant is so chill and laid back. The menu is simple, but delicious!! We always order the Tteok-bokki carbonara. This dish stays in my dream!! It's so good!! It's so good that we share with friends and family and they love it too. Should've got 2 order but the kitchen close. The soy chicken is so crunchy and perfectly seasoned! It's slightly sweet and salty. The perfect combo!! Service is amazing! We order our food and drinks. And the server brought us water without us asking. He is a mind reader! Great food, drinks, and ambiance! The service is also amazing!! Please come to San Diego . read more

My favorite chicken wings. I like to get the sauce on the side. The fried chicken is already good on its own. With that, my goto sauce is the "hot" wing sauce. And don't skip on the corn ribs! Location is excellent, chill vibe, if you need something just ask for the waiter. They don't come to bombard you. Just let you chill and enjoy. read more

A pretty good Korean fried chicken place, this unique spot brings a variety of flavors to their chicken. All their food is made fresh and cooked well. I will say, their flavors are very okay, nothing special, no wow factor would be my main critique. The servers were nice and the vibes in the restaurant were fun but the food was just okay unfortunately. A pretty standard Korean fried chicken place, a decent spot to go to if you have a big group of friends coming back from the night out. read more

We had been really looking forward to trying this place, so it was disappointing how our first experience went. On Friday 3/20/26 around 5pm, my wife walked in to place a to-go order. Instead of being welcomed, she was told in a rude tone that customers are "supposed to call ahead" and come later to pick up their food. As first time customers, she had no idea this was their process and honestly, it wasn't explained in a helpful or respectful way. It left her wondering why she couldn't simply wait for the order like at most places. We both work in the industry, so we understand how busy things can get, but professionalism and customer service still matter. Unfortunately, this interaction left a bad impression, and we'll be taking our business elsewhere. read more

3.5 stars. Fast and attentive service. Pub vibes with dim lights and beer on tap. Chicken was alright, def had better. Easy to access from the 91 freeway, plenty of parking. Popular place from the business on a Saturday night. Sweet Soy Whole Chicken -- love the texture of the outside, juice on the inside. Flavor was a bit lacking. $30 for a whole chicken with one sauce read more

Solid Korean fried chicken. Came here to satisfy a fried chicken craving. The servers start you off with a salad and radish kimchi which go really well with fried chicken. We ordered a half portion with sweet soy sauce. It was my first time trying the sweet soy sauce, it was solid. We also ordered a large dukpokki with ramen. The spice level comfortable, and the dukbokki had good chew. The service here is great, no complaints from me. The restaurant has tvs located around with sports games playing. The place is well kept and clean. read more

A good solid spot for KFC! Lately I have been calling in our orders, because we have kids now, so dining out isn't convenient.  Parking is easy in this plaza because it's the only store open right now, but the little complex just got a remodel and looks like it will open one or two more stores.  It was a 20 minute wait for a whole fried chicken which isn't bad.  It came with two containers of the pickled radishes and the whole chicken was the perfect amount of food for me and my husband.  It was juicy, tender, and perfectly fried.  In the past we've dined inside after playing pickleball and it is a little dark inside.  The tables felt a little sticky to me so it could be a little cleaner.  It's open pretty late for the La Palma and Cerritos area so it's perfect for when you want a late night snack or late hangout. read more

Just got off work and this place was one of the few places that was open late at night so I stopped by. I ordered the dozen KoKo Fried wings with hot sauce and an order of fries. The wings were crispy but not too oily, the wings were juicy and had a good amount of meat unlike some places, and the hot sauce was hot but not overwhelmingly spicy. The fries were thick cut and crispy and a good side dish. The pickled radishes were nice to give you a break from all the savory. I would definitely come back here and try something else. read more

Solid Korean chicken spot overall. The chicken was crispy, well-fried, and full of flavor, especially with the sauces. Portions were satisfying and definitely hit the spot when you're craving Korean fried chicken. Service was decent--nothing exceptional, but no major issues either. The ambiance is very casual, more of a quick grab-and-go or laid-back meal rather than a place to sit and linger. Overall, a good option for Korean chicken if you're in the area. Worth trying, with some room for improvement to really stand out. read more

Delicious! Amazing! Fresh!! I've been eating this chicken thru doordash for awhile but never had a chance to sit and eat it at the restaurant. The employee greeted us very friendly and we got a table right away. I already knew what i wanted and got the 12 pc regular fried chicken with sweet soy on the side. They give you cabbage with thousand island type dressing on the side too which my husband devoured. I snorked up all the chicken which is crispy hot and juicy. Restaurant is very clean including the bathrooms and decorated with gas can labels and other cool stuff. We were never neglected by our server. Limited parking as its a smaller lot. Forget all the fried chicken you had before - THIS is the place to go! read more

My group visited this restaurant excited to try the food, but unfortunately we had a negative experience with customer service. We asked a question about the tipping policy because we were confused, and the staff member responded in a way that felt rude and dismissive. We were told that if we didn't want to eat there, we could leave, even though we were planning to dine in. We tried to clarify the misunderstanding, but the interaction continued to feel hostile. The experience ended up ruining the night for our group, which was disappointing because we had been looking forward to trying this place. After the visit, I also attempted to contact the manager multiple times to discuss the situation, but I was unable to reach anyone. This review reflects my personal experience during our visit. read more

This is another location we tried. They are currently under construction so it was hard to locate in the night but I'm so glad they added another location closer to me because man the chicken is fire! so glad it's the same quality you can definitely tell that the chicken is of good quality. This time we went for regular on the chicken and in the wings and got hot sauce and soy sauce in the side and I preferred this so the chicken stayed crispy even the next day! read more

I stopped in for lunch to try it out. The stripmall is undergoing a remodel so I was not even sure there was anything there open. I ordered wings and fries which arrived pretty quickly and piping hot. The flavors were okay though lacking a bit of salt if eating plain. I wasnt a fan of the sauce provided so that was not used. The fries were decent and service was friendly. I think I would need to try it again but the first visit was ok. I am giving this a 3 star only because there is a lot of competition in this space and I have had better. I will try again though. read more

I love me some Korean fried chicken! I ordered to go, but the lady that I spoke to was very kind. I told her I will actually not be able to pick up my order until an hour and she said that's fine. In an hour, I got the email that my food was ready. The restaurant was cute, great atmosphere, very cool and laid back vibe. The soy chicken was the best I have ever had! Perfect flavor, a lot of chicken on the bones. So happy this place is down the street from me read more

Excellent service and food is great. Ambiance is very nice. Would recommend to a friend

Of the 4 KFC (korean fried chicken) places in the area Koko is a standout. There's never a wait and their signature crispy koko wings are always consistent. Meat is juicy and batter is crunchy. 12 wings is usually good for 2-3 based on hunger level. Their sauces are also good, especially their hot sauce. Love that the corn cheese doesn't have pineapple in it lol. Cabbage salad simple and good too, and fries are also battered for that crunch. Service is amazing great. read more

Dropped by as it was highly recommended by a friend, and would say it didn't disappoint! It is a great spot to go if you have the late night munchies. The service is great! Everything came out pretty quick and came out hot. There is only two front staff and they did come check on a few times to see if we needed anything. I would say that if love spicy foods, the default for the Dukpokki and the hot sauce for the chicken isn't spicy. My friend, who has spicy foods once in awhile, said it was decently spicy. So if you do like super spicy it may need to be adjusted. The Dukpokki has a very nice chew to it and did well to pick up the sauce. The sauce on the Dukpokki had good flavor, it was a good balance of sweet and spicy for a late night snack. The fried chicken was also very delicious! The chicken came out very hot and it was super crispy. We got the chicken with the hot sauce, and it was alright as the sauce wasn't really to our liking. Would definitely try a different sauce or just stick the original as the original is always good. Would definitely come back again! read more
