Ordered the legend popcorn chicken and curly fries. Food is pretty good although chicken was slightly on the dry side but still very good. Fries were $7.50 and the popcorn chicken was $8.50. Its a tiny store that's more geared toward the Asian themed look, located inside a food hall. There are some seating at the back but minimal and shared with the rest of the food hall. Cashier was nice and the wait was pretty quick for the food. read more

Legend Chicken - Popcorn chicken and curly fries (drinks and onigiri were from another store) - Chicken Wings Near Me - Flushing, New York

I was really excited to try this place because I love Taiwanese popcorn chicken! It's located in a small food court so it's nice that you can walk around and buy some boba while the chicken is cooked fresh for you. I ordered popcorn chicken with medium spice. It really was freshly made and tasted good! However I wish it was a bit crunchier and less dry. Usually fried chicken that isn't crunchy tends to be juicer but I think this was a tad over cooked. The seasoning tasted good although medium spice wasn't spicy at all to me so if I went back, I'd get a higher level. read more

Chicken was uniquely flared out, fully bread crumbled and fried. Really easy to pick and eat from. Flavor was nice, just right amount of seasoning and your choice of spice. I had a nice order of Parmesan garlic fries and wings, all of it was nicely fried and delicious. A bit hard to get to by car, but we were able to do it if you have someone to stay in the car. The area seems like a good place to walk around if you choose that route as well. In the market area there were also other options as well all around the neighborhood for food. read more

And I'm back for their cutlets this time! I wasn't deterred by their dry popcorn chicken, as I was still attracted to their amazing flavor. The Legend Chicken ($12) was expensive, but then I saw the size of this thing! I wasn't even aware at first, since it was wrapped over in such neat packaging. Gloves were also provided! We only got the Mild spice, but both of us can still taste the heat! It was a perfect spice that's addicting and delicious, without killing us. The meat was also juicy at parts. The workers were also so sweet in informing us of standing tables in the back. Heck, I'll definitely come again to try a different menu selection next time. read more

Legend Chicken - Legend Chicken ($12) - comes with gloves! - Chicken Wings Near Me - Flushing, New York

The seasoning on the chicken was really nice and mild was quite spicy! Maybe because they use chicken breast but it was pretty dry so I didn't like it too much. More like a 3.5 but rounding up for that seasoning. It is just a stand and there's a few seats in the back shared with other food stands in the area so expect to take this to go! read more

We haven't visited Legend Chicken for a while and missed their fried chicken cutlet so much. Everything was still fried perfectly and delicious, especially the cutlet, which is super juicy inside with crunchy layer. The owner was super friendly and attentive. We placed an order via Seamless with extra service charge which we were aware and totally fine with the fee. The owner gave us two bottles of drinks to show their appreciation. read more

No seating here so this spot is definitely for on the go eating or for when you can find a separate place to sit. We came here and ordered their famous giant fried chicken. We tried two kinds: the leg cutlet and the legend chicken. When ordering, you select the spicy level: mild, medium or hot. It really is a large portion so be ready to eat a lot or potentially share if you're looking for a snack! This chicken tastes best when freshly fried and is both crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. It's well seasoned and we tried both mild and medium for variety. Medium has a pleasant kick but is still tolerable though we probably both preferred the mild. Mild allowed the seasoning to shine through more. Between the different cuts of chicken, the dark meat (leg cutlet) was definitely tastier since the meat was more juicy than the legend cut (prob breast meat). The chicken comes in a folded piece of paper reminiscent of old style fish and chips wrapping. The location even provides disposable gloves to eat with since it can get pretty messy and this is definitely easier to eat with your hands. Be careful because the chicken can be very hot when it comes out of the fryer! Overall, if you're a fan of fried chicken, you'll definitely enjoy this spot. As long as you aren't afraid to get a little messy, I'd recommend it if you're able to eat it soon after ordering (otherwise it could get soggy). This type of street food is fairly popular in Taiwan so it's nice to get a little taste of it locally. We'll definitely be back! read more

Legend Chicken - Legend chicken (medium spicy) - Chicken Wings Near Me - Flushing, New York

I really hate to admit this, but the chicken honestly was not that good. The Legend Chicken here is about $12/13, which I consider to be a little steep for food in Flushing. However, the chicken piece we got was GIGANTIC, and their chicken is pretty high quality (hormone-free, stuff like that) so definitely come with a few friends. As for the food, the idea is there, but the execution was... questionable. The breading is solid, but I felt that the chicken lacked a LOT of seasoning, considering how big the piece was. I also would've appreciated some kind of sauce because it got quite old to eat and it was very bland. I'd consider trying this place again but would definitely get something traditional like the popcorn chicken. The big legend chicken just wasn't good. read more

On the hunt for Taiwanese Popcorn Chicken we decided to try this place out. It is in this small complex with other food stalls (i.e. yifun bubble tea, chinatown ice cream, etc.) It is pretty clean! We got the legends pop aka taiwanese popcorn chicken ($8.50). This was about the average price I found and comparable to other places in the area in flushing. There was a 5-10min wait and there were other people waiting as well. It had great air conditioning so no complaints while waiting. The popcorn chicken was fresh but kind of oily (as expected). We didn't get spicy but I would try mild spicy next time. Wish it came with some kind of sauce because it was sorta dry at times. I would come back to try the other items on the menu. Bring cash, $10 min to use a credit card. read more

Legend Chicken is located inside the tiny Foody Town Flushing food court. I love this hole in the wall spot. It's the second stall as you enter and it is counter service only. They have seating on the second floor. Food is made to order so expect a small wait--average time of about ten minutes. On our last visit, we ordered: Legend pops: Fried chicken pieces with basil seasoning. Chicken is cooked well but still juicy. Perfect food for on the go. You can customize the level of spice. I find the medium spicy to be plenty spicy. Legend chicken: big piece of boneless breast, fried and seasoned. The first time I got this, my piece was burnt. I prefer the legend pops. Tator tots: love the crunchy exterior and soft inside. Sweet potato fries: has a light coating of powdered garlic-delicious! Fried garlic string beans: lightly fried with garlic pieces. String beans retained nice crunch and vibrant color. A surprisingly good vegetable dish. Per the sign near the counter, all of the chicken used are cage free, hormone free and halal certified. read more

Located inside a very small food hall type of place with very little seating. Important thing to note is that most places that have Taiwanese fried chicken uses chicken thighs but this place uses white-meat tenderloins so the chicken is a bit firmer in texture and drier compared to if thighs were used. Honestly I didn't think there was much flavor at all in the food. I've had lots of Taiwanese popcorn chicken and this was probably the most bland chicken I've had. The sautéed cabbage was also very bland and the rice was very mushy/wet. This was the first time in a long time I didn't finish my food. Maybe I came in on an off day (?). Would not come back! read more

Great Taiwanese style popcorn chicken and many sides to choose from. I was a bit disappointed that the non spicy version of the popcorn chicken wasn't salty enough which will make the overall taste more blend. Hopefully they can add more savory taste into their non spicy seasoning to make it better. read more

This is what will happens if you only give customer paper bag during the rainy day. Two fire chicken cutlets on the ground, wasted money,waiting time and food . I understand this is for protecting environment reasons. But the chicken don't have box , it's already in the small paper pocket. It's already hot and steaming inside the paper bag too ! Also they are heavy too. The big paper bag isn't waterproof! It's a lot thinner then grocery store paper bags. And it rained all day today. I think you should give plastic bags for customer in this weather? And I also think this is a basic logic? I don't want to ask for plastic bags, because sometimes when I ask this ppl will give me side eye or says they don't have plastic things. I also think it shouldn't be the customer 's responsibility. Why buying food is so stressful now . 27 dollars is wasted. I am glad I didn't order French fries . read more

I love the flushing food scene ! I was craving some fried chicken and saw great reviews of this place. This is located in a mini food hall that has a lot of yummy cuisine. I love how you can customize the spice level for the popcorn chicken. I tried the medium flavor and it was amazing definitely recommend ! This was about $9 read more

I did not expect to find a halal fried chicken shop here but I'm so glad I did. And man is it good!! It's a small Taiwanese fried chicken takeout shop inside of this mini food court. I got the chicken pops (hot spicy) with garlic and cilantro toppings as well as a hot waffle fries. They weren't kidding with the heat and I respected it. Both were very tasty I just wish I asked for some sauce on the side. One of my favorite finds and definitely coming back. Side note I believe only the fried chicken dishes are zabihah halal. read more

Sadly had to dock off a star here for being served COLD chicken. I ordered their #1 seller Legend Pops (crispy Taiwanese-style bite sized popcorn chicken), which is proudly marketed as being freshly cooked-to-order. There's even a sign stating that any chicken dish may take up to 10 minutes for cooking time. Once I received the order, my boyfriend tried a piece and it was completely cold, but thankfully (or hopefully) the chicken itself looked cooked inside. I tried a piece and it was warm, but my second piece was cold. The entire box seemed like it had a mix of warm and cold pieces of chicken in it. We brought up the issue with the servers and they even touched a piece and confirmed that the chicken was cold. They remade our order but didn't give much explanation on what went wrong with the original one. The second remade batch was nice and hot, but I felt like the cold chicken really soured our overall experience and we couldn't enjoy it as much. I also have to question why the chicken piece was cold yet cooked inside? If the chicken was freshly fried, then wouldn't it have to be raw in order for the piece to feel cold? read more

I was very excited to see that another Taiwanese Chicken shop had opened in Flushing. The first time I tried the Popcorn Chicken and Fried Tofu. Both came in large portions and were super filling. I didn't particularly enjoy the popcorn chicken as much because I thought it was more batter then chicken itself. It was still tasty though. The fried tofu was a bit tasteless, most probably because I didn't get any seasoning on it. So my second time around, I ordered the chicken pops (again), garlic string beans, and fried turnip cake all in Medium seasoning and black lemon pepper. With my Yelp check in, I also got to redeem the Venetian Tofu (they ran out of the bouncing curds). The wait time was about ten minutes. This time around the food was so delicious! I shared with my brother and we both could not finish. The medium spice really added a kick to it this time. Out of everything i ordered, my favorite was actually the fried turnip cakes. Now I'm very eager to try the taro and blood rice cakes next. Also the chicken or leg cutlet since I want more meat. Overall, delicious food and nice owner. Add the seasoning if you want that extra kick! read more

Cool little shop that sells great finger foods to snack on. Came a little too late to order the chicken items (apparently they run out around 7:00pm). Pros: -cheap food for a decent portion size -easy to take on the go and eat Cons: -show up earlier to get the chicken items -low spicy is still fairly spicy (be careful if you cannot handle spice!) read more

The staff is very friendly and is willing to explain the menu and talk about what they have to offer. I've learned certain items are only available on the weekends and most items will take a while because everything is made fresh to order. As for the food, I expected a little more from their fried food concept. I ordered a few items to try and it was overrated. The flavors for everything tasted the same. The batter was a little bit much. I was looking forward to the popular Legend pops but they were dry and overcooked. The imperial tofu was bland. I was quite disappointed. I don't mind paying for good food but I definitely felt cheated paying so much for mediocre food. Overall, I was disappointed that this is based from Taiwanese and I expected a lot more for what it was. read more

A small stand like store on the side of the walkway. Overall the menu has few items, all of them are snack food. The best is their popcorn chicken(legend pop - $6.50). They use chicken breast and cut it into small pieces then coated with flour and their spices. I recommend getting the mild spicy to test your spicy level. The legend chicken($9) is made of whole chicken breast including a small portion of chicken bone. The size was huge, it made me felt so full after eating it. It uses similar type of coating but I personally felt the popcorn chicken tasted better. Choosing either one of them would be a mistake. They also have sausages(two in an order), their sausages were on the sweet side. The spicy sausage was really spicy, don't recommend people who can't handle spicy food. This is the right place for a classic Taiwanese fried chicken. read more

TLDR: Taiwanese popcorn chicken specialist in the miniature food hall on 40th Road. Legend Pops, Garlic Broccoli. Spicy. I was in the area and this was a place I had wanted to try for awhile. While you do wait a bit for your food, that's because everything is made fresh to order. Good portion sizes too. We got the Legend Pops, asked for spicy - very tasty. There was a slight sweetness in the seasoning which I'm not sure of the exact ingredient. Regardless, it was enjoyable to eat. Crispy, they give you the skewers to pick up each piece. Lots of flavor in each bite. The chicken has the traditional tastes of garlic, ginger, five spice, etc. Wanted to have something else to accompany this but potatoes were a bit too filling as this was a midday snack. We opted for the garlic broccoli. It had the spice seasoning too but the florets got all crispy on the edges. Very good. If you're in the area and are in the mood for something crispy - give this place a try. read more

Me and two other people went around Flushing this past weekend going to different places and trying a bit of food from each place. Glad we stopped into Legend Chicken! We were debating whether to get 1 or 2 things, but we ended up just ordering the fried cutlet. So glad we just got one of them, because it was HUGEE!! It fed the 3 of us for $9. All of us have usually just had the Taiwanese popcorn chicken in the past, so it was great getting it in a cutlet form here. It gets served piping hot. The seasonings are so tasty - great balance of five spice and white pepper. The fried exterior is light and crispy, not too greasy. The chicken itself was pretty juicy and well-seasoned throughout. read more

Taiwanese Fried Chicken is reason enough why you should try this place! That and pretty much everything else on the menu! First, Taiwanese fried chicken is not korean fried chicken. They're both delicious in their own way. Taiwanese fried chicken is bite sized pieces of chicken coated with flour and fried. If you haven't tried them, you really should! My group also got the Taiwanese sausage (wow delicious!) and the tofu! This place is located in a small food court in Flushing, Queens. You place the order, pick up the food, and take it to your table. Very self serve. read more

Fried chicken nuggets is the must have from this shop. Taiwanese style ingredients including fried garlic dices with salt and pepper mixture, adding red pepper powder to give little kick of the taste! Spicy level can be customized, however I feel medium spicy is already maximum for what I can handle. Ha! It says proudly on the menu that their chicken is cage-free, humanely raised, no hormone used. From placing the order to actually receiving the food is slightly long, but when I eat it the wait becomes worthy! The chicken is very tender, juicy, tasty, and overall very delicious! And I have to say they are experts in flavors! I recommend all the fried chicken lovers and all my Yelp Elite family to come try a box of fried chicken! But be careful, you may become the next regular!! It's that good. The store is small, but clean. The food containers are in paper material, which is environmental friendly. One of my stars goes to this reason. There are few seatings locate further down the aisle. read more

Deep fried things!!!!!!!! This is inside the storefront of Yifang (which you should go to anyway for the brown sugar milk) -- so walk past all the people in line for bubble tea and go to the back. There's 3 tables past Chinatown Ice Cream Factory (yes, another store!) and ample seating upstairs as well (although the lighting makes for really bad, dark pictures). Really liked the chicken spade (which they said is chicken butt?)! The chicken pop (which is popcorn chicken) was pretty good too, tasty and well seasoned. Crispy and not soggy or rubbery like other places. Fish roe sausage was interesting - sausage with fish roe inside... literally! You can order mild, medium or spicy.

During covid I missed having Legend Chicken's Legend Pops ($7) which is their form of Taiwanese popcorn chicken. Hands down the best popcorn chicken around with crispy edges, fragrant basil, and fried with crunchy starch.

I had the popcorn chicken here twice already and I feel like I can now make a solid review about it. The first time my husband had ordered it and bought it home so perhaps during the commute back, the chicken lost it's crispiness. My husband also asked for a little bit of spice but it was quite spicy that i couldn't even taste the rest of the flavors. The spice was overwhelming and as for the curly fries? they were super salty. Ordered the 2nd time today and we quickly ate it in the car when we got it. This time, we asked for no spice and it was delicious and not to mention crispy. They use breast meat which is different from other places that uses thighs. The waffle fries were huge and had great flavor but just a tad salty. The bouncing curds was great. So i would suggest eat it quick while it's hot and not wait until you get home! read more

Decided to try this spot out and ordered their legend pops and blood rice cakes. Was a little surprise that they used white chicken meat for their poppers since most places use dark. Which isn't a bad thing. Wished it could've been a little more crispier but that's cause it was delivery (expected) The blood rice cakes were surprisingly good! Has a crisp on the outside and semi chewy in the inside. Really helps stick some meat on to ya bones! Overall I was pleased. Next time got to order on the spot to get that legit crisp! Will definitely come back. read more

So not worth the calories. I ordered the legend pops (medium spicy) and was super disappointed. Not sure if it's an off day considering all these rave reviews. I was excited for flavorful, moist and crispy popcorn chicken. What I got was chicken that was dry and bland in the center. The outside is pretty crispy and hides the dryness. The spiciness on the outside of the chicken is super inconsistent. It's a good thing I got spicy or else the chicken would have been extra bland. Probably won't be back. read more
