Tender chicken & interesting drinks, with an emphasis on Soju…read more I usually don't review a place after a single visit, but I noticed their menu (and other reviews) barely mention the extensive bar offerings. There's most of a full bar, a cocktail list, some Japanese offerings like Suntory, and quite a bit of soju. There's also a 30%-off happy hour on weekdays. The chicken was served crisp and too-hot-to-eat-yet. Very tender, very flavorful. This is the kind of chicken you want fresh, so don't order delivery- come get it yourself, or better yet, eat on-prem. Note the pieces are a little smaller than you might expect for American fried chicken (but higher quality). Decently late hours -until 1am on weekend nights. I was a little surprised to find no chili sauce or oil on offer, but I expect they want you to order the spicy chicken variation instead. We in Howard County are lucky to have so many Korean options available, but I didn't realize this nearby restaurant was part of a major Korean chain until I came across an article in the Guardian last month about their "Chicken University" (really). Reminder that it pays to explore locally!

I love the…read moregentle Cajun flavoring of the coating on this fried chicken, and you can get additional gently-cajun Krunch sauce or spicy buffalo sauce or other sauces on the side. I stopped by at 11am on a weekday, and the chicken was piping hot and juicy, much fresher than other fast-food chicken places. The tasty coating had a nice slight crisp to it, though it wasnt as crunchy as the fast-food brand that starts with a P. As I ate in my car, several roadwork crews walked by with their KKC© bags, so it's pretty well known along this part of US-40. There's parking out front for about 30 vehicles, and it's just a few steps from a large mall parking lot. This place is between a Goodyear and an AT&T, all in a little strip mall of their own. It's easy to find. When you're driving west, just turn in at the several Krispy Krunchy Chicken banners on the westbound side of Baltimore National Pike just west of I-695 and look for Poblano. It's a little tricky coming east: you have to drive past Alexander Av, (no matter what your map-app says), and do a u-turn where you would be going into the Lidl - Home Depot parking lot. I mention this because of course I made the wrong turn the first time. Then come back to those KKC banners, and go into Poblano Halal Mexican Grill.

5.14.22 I discovered…read morethis restaurant from seeing a fellow yelpie's review. I love Korean fried chicken so wanted to give it a try with my husband. Upon entering the restaurant it was a bit confusing. It shares the same space as Kung Fu Tea and you place your order in the same line. Process: Step 1: Pick an Entree Step 2: Pick a side Step 3: Add a drink (+$2 for Classic Series, +$3 for Milk Tea or Punch, +$4 for Milk Strike or Slush) Food: I ordered the Kwa Kwa Bao + Chicken Combo. Kwa Kwa Bao is sticky rice, shiitake mushrooms, and pork wrapped in crispy chicken skin. It was interesting. The chicken was average. Nothing special about it, but it was piping hot and super moist. I got the Sweet Potato Fries as my side at the cashier's recommendation and it did not disappoint. My husband ordered chicken tenders with ranch sauce. He said it was good, piping hot, and super moist, but he still prefers BonChon as it's more flavorful. Service: He thought the cashier who took our order seemed unenthusiastic and wasn't giving off good vibes. Their was a Latino woman who he said was friendlier when he went up to ask for a cup of water and an additional sauce ($.25 each). Misc: My husband got the impression that they don't want patrons to dine inside as they don't provide tableware. We had to ask for ketchup and plastic utensils as they was not provided with our order. Final thoughts: The food was good, but nothing noteworthy. The service could be better and they could provide tableware for dining in and/or plastic utensils with orders automatically.

Great first experience at Hangry Joe's…read more The chicken was fresh and crispy, the slaw had a sweet, cooling effect, the Mac n cheese was what you'd expect for fast food: creamy but bland, even with the strip of seasoning on it. The fries with cheese seasoning were way better than I expected. Crisp, fresh, not too oily and the seasoning had a complementary sweet flavor that pairs really well with the sandwich. Everything had a hint of sweet, which seems odd to me but I think it's common in Korean dishes? At any rate, it was good. The Thai tea was ok. It had a hint of that Thai tea flavor but its stronger and better at other places.

Upon entering, we were met with graffiti inspired artwork on the walls, which was cool. We perused the menu and decided to order. They have different levels of spice for your chicken and decided on an order that was mild (2 sandwich meal) , medium, (2 sandwich meal) and extra hot (I was warned by my daughter to rethink this option, but, alas, I did not heed her warning; 1 tender 1 sandwich meal). They had the spiciest level, reaper, which you have to sign a waiver to purchase, I wasn't that crazy y'all... Food delivery service was available and they had an LED board with which ones each order was under. The service was great with the associates very pleasant at the counter. We also ordered a fruit punch slushy, but it was TOO sweet for me and I couldn't finish it. If you love sweet drinks, this would be the one for you! We were given a buzzer and we didn't wait long for our order to be ready. The orders were accompanied by crinkle cut fries (we got cheese on ours for an extra cost) along with a small container of coleslaw, pickle slices, and Dave's Sauce. The fries were good with that cheese sauce: fresh, crispy, not greasy and the sauce tasting like real cheese. Now....I pride myself on enjoying a good hot spiced item from time to time... but my extra hot tender was not to be played with. I bit into that crispy tender and instantly knew I indeed "bit off more than I could chew!" It was as if that hot spiced item shot through my whole body and I was heated on the inside for about a couple of minutes. I say that to say, if you are not into spicy SPICY, don't go above medium. So glad I chose a medium spice sandwich (yes, you can get different spice levels in your order) because that saved me. The chicken was fresh, with a crispy coating on a fresh bun with Dave's sauce. The pickles were fresh and crisp (my go-to to put out that heat from that extra hot chicken tender!), the coleslaw was fresh and ok. I really don't like sauces like the Dave's sauce on my food, so the next time I will get my sandwich without it. All in all, a nice place for a good chicken sandwich, especially with the cheese fries! Epilogue: I saved the rest of that extra hot tender to eat the next day hoping the spice level had dissipated...but no...it seems as if it intensified...but I still ate it...maybe I'm used to that spice level now...

The food tastes better than ever and I discovered something that made my night out with friends even more memorable... I had no idea they ever offered private karaoke rooms! It truly feels like this spot has been given a fresh start and the difference in both food and overall vibe is amazing. From the moment you walk in, it feels like you're instantly transported to a classic pocha in Korea with bright, colorful LED signs and comfortable booth and table seating. For dinner, we ordered 4 entrees to share (ranging between $20-30) and a side of honey butter fries. Fun fact, K Pocha imports the honey butter powder directly from Korea and those fries were SO deliciously addicting and crispy. Definitely a must try item that I'll be getting repeatedly! My favorite dishes of the night were the spicy rice cakes and half/half fried chicken. The chicken was super crispy on the outside and very juicy on the inside. The spicy rice cakes?! These were actually the best I've had, their sauce tastes different than any other Korean spot I've been to. It had such a unique depth of flavor that I absolutely loved!   The private karaoke rooms elevated my experience. They're nice and cozy and I was impressed by the sound system. The music is loud and clear and my friends had a blast! We also had such kind service and were able to get our food nearly right away and delivered directly into the karaoke room! It was awesome! Overall, K Pocha is the kind of place where you can eat, drink, and sing all in one visit. It's a spot that has stood the test of time for a good reason and I highly recommend checking them out!

Good chicken sandos and more, tender and moist, from plain to super fiery!…read more In Sep 2025, Hangry Joe's Hot Chicken is about a year-old on Baltimore National Pike just west of St. Johns Lane. It's between a Chinese take-out and a used-sporting-good store, just a little east of the middle of the St. Johns Plaza strip mall. This location has seating for 40 or so in a brightly decorated space. There's plenty of parking right out front. It's my first time here, I was a little afraid of the "hangry" spice, but learned that the range of heat is by-request, so i got two "Jr." sandwiches: one no-heat to get a taste of just the chicken, and one medium. The chicken comes piping hot, two half-inch thick strips nearly twice as long as the 4-inch junior bun, which is a lot of food for their smaller size sandwich! It's tender and moist, with just a light chew. The coating is thin and lightly seasoned, drizzled with a mildly-sweet red-sauce. Good flavors. Theres a layer of fresh not-too-wet slaw and a couple of hearty pickle circles, both of which add some sweetness. The bread is lightly flavorful, just dense enough to hold everything together. The medium is the same generous tender moist sandwich. The red-sauce also seems the same. The coating on the chicken is where the spice is! It builds up quickly to a nice mouth-filling heat, and it adds zingy flavor without overwhelming with heat. The veggie layers of the sandwich help manage the heat. The chicken is very good and fresh-tasting, definitely tastier than the chicken at nearby fast-food burger joints. The range of heat is by-request, so us low- spice and no-spice folks can come here with I-wanna-burn folks, and everyone will hit their target. I think that anyone who likes even a little spice will want medium-heat or above. The junior-serving was huge and filling! This place is a win in flavor, quality, and quantity. It took about 5min to prepare, so order ahead on their app.
