    This was an interesting eats, we came by on a random Tuesday evening. We ordered the chicken sandwich and corn flavored chicken wings. Restaurant reminds me of a college cafeteria. Service was good, our chicken was cooked nicely but the powder corn flavor seasoning was too overwhelming. I really wanted to like this place. It wasn't bad nor good just okay.

    Puradak is now open at this Buena Park location on the 3rd floor at The Source. If you're like me and crave Korean fried chicken from time to time and are in the area then it is worth checking out. They have a variety of flavors including their popular Black Aglio and gimme basak flavor. I heard their cheese balls and corn is also good to pair with your wings. I went with one other person and we shared their original and new chili mayo flavor. The nice staff there gave us some black aglio sauce to try and it's sweet and savory. I enjoyed the chili mayo flavor which turned out to my favorite. It had a sweet mayo flavor and wasn't very spicy. I did come with some pickled jalapenos which was good. We also shared an oden soup on the side which was like fish cake soup. The broth was a little salty but overall good. Service was excellent. Our waiter was super nice and helpful. The chicken also came out faster than any other fried chicken place I had ever gone to. The inside is super casual and open feeling. I would come back again.

    Malburo sandwich

    Located at The Source, 3rd floor. Came in on a weekend afternoon and no one was at the entrance to greet us. As we walked in further, it took some time for the staff member at the back register to seat us but we were confused as first time customers. Menu is alright - with a couple of chicken options, sandwich options, and sides. I tried the malburo sandwich. Despite its 3 chili pepper signs, it wasn't spicy. It wasn't bad but it wasn't anything special. Chicken wasn't dry though my order was saucy so that would've helped too. Sauce was not hitting it out of the park for me, and having tried the kfc place downstairs I prefer the other spot. Fries were regular fries.

    First timer here. How come no one told me about this place. This chicken was so flavorful and moist. It took about twenty minutes to arrive at our table but it was worth the wait. Service was attentive, we are already ready for round two.

    My friend took me to the Source for the first time and we decided to try something new. So, we elected for Puradak since we were feeling like having chicken. When you walk in, you can feel it's pretty casual. You sit down and they take your order, but it's a casual vibe. The servers are friendly. The place is clean. So, on the menu you can elect to build your own wings or choose some other chicken items. I went with the wings but I was also definitely eyeing the sandwich. The wings I got had the sweet sauce on it. Word of caution-- mine came with peanuts on top so if you're allergic maybe mention that!!! I thought the chicken was pretty juicy and such. Fries were nothing to write home about. I'd say the food is good but not like something I'd be craving to come back to, you know?

    The service was pretty good, they were very attentive. The food was alright, chickens are very moist and crispy, my friends and I just didn't love any of the sauces besides the chili mayo one, that one is bomb! do not recommend the cheese balls tho, they didn't taste like anything. the vibe was great, a bit empty and sad for a friday night but i guess it is what it is.

    Chili Mayo
    Aurelia T.

    Service is good. They are so nice and keep checking on us. They even offered the seaweed chips for free :) Corn-so-amazing 100000/10 as its name. The corn flavor is just enough. Makes your regular cheese powder much more interesting. The chicken is oven fried so that explains why until the very end, barely any oil is soaked up in the liner under the dish and still keeps chicken so moist. Not so impressed with the chili mayo since the corn took the spotlight but it is definitely growing on me slowly. The tangyness from the pickled jalapeno cuts the creaminess of the mayo just perfectly ! Will definitely come back and already recommened to friends n fams LOL !

    Classic chicken sandwich

    This place never disappoints! Been a while since the last visit but The only thing that changed is we get seated and get our orders taken instead of ordering at the counter. Our server was nice and attentive. It wasn't super busy around mid afternoon on a Saturday surprisingly. This time I ordered the black aglio boneless wings and it was amazing! It was so flavorful and the chicken was juicy. Loved the garlic pieces and the fries were good as well. Great place to go if you're craving some chicken!

    Corn fries 5/5 sweet but the flavor is amazing
    Tina T.

    Plenty of parking in the garage and it's free parking with a Tesla charging station. The food is amazing and the service is great. We came during lunch was it was slow and the food came out super fast. The wings were a bit small but they more than the 8 pieces that was supposed to come with the med size which more than made up for it.

    First time here trying the chicken wings. And now getting the black cheese balls. Chicken and cheese balls tasted so delicious and juicy. Should come here again~!!! There's other food to try, like the corn, hhmm yummy

    Today I was at the Source in BP. Wanted to eat something healthy. Found the Korean KFC really nice spot. Good ambiance and most importantly quality of food is good. Also the cheese ball is good

    Chili Mayo wings
    Belle C.

    Delicious oven fried Korean Fried Chicken, which separates it from the usual deep fried chicken, making it a healthier cheat at a very modern and clean restaurant. Got the: - black Aglio medium wings (8pcs for $17 bc it's 16 +$1 extra for sauce): 9/10, their version of soy garlic with cooked garlic pieces. A bit on the sweet side for my liking - paired with side of fries with corn seasoning: made the fries very sweet - chili mayo medium wings (8pcs for $17 bc it's 16 +$1 extra for sauce): 5/10, came with a HEAPING of sauce and jalapeños. Even though it has 2 fire signs on the menu and they hype it a lot, to me it's just mildly spicy and the jalapeños weren't that spicy (if you have had REAL Korean spicy, you'd know it's far from that) - paired with a side of pickled radish: also on the sweet side, but nice and pink and crunchy Located: on the 3rd floor of the Source, not far from the escalators Parking: large parking garage at the Source Misc: - There's a Kiosk to order at for To-go orders only - they already have a menu and place settings for each table

    Pickled radish
    Michelle K.

    I came here with my dear college friend - the place had a nice and modern, white and sleek design, which I thought was cool. We were promptly seated and got our food fairly quickly after ordering. The servers were also very prompt in getting us more water (you'll need a lot eating here). We ordered the wings with black aglio and some tenders with the chili mayo - surprisingly, I really enjoyed the chili mayo despite the spiciness! The flavor was really rich and creamy and less sweet than expected. We also ordered some fries with the corn seasoning, which was a little too sweet to my liking. The pickled radish was lovely in balancing out the saltiness of the flavors. Overall, a pretty decent fried chicken place. I'm not really a fan of Korean fried chicken usually due to the sweetness of the flavors, so I'd come back for the chili mayo. I'd love to eventually try some other options as well.

The music is so loud that it feels more like a nightclub than a restaurant. Customers come here to enjoy their food and have conversations with friends and family, not to dance. The music should be kept at a reasonable volume so everyone can enjoy their meal and have a pleasant conversation.
