Best Korean fried chicken in ktown hands down. OB Bear (RIP) was the only other viable alternative so thank goodness manyeo still exists. Everyone I've taken here has a different favorite item, so I say you can't go wrong. I personally go for the spicy yangnyum wings. read more

As suggested by some friends and seeing it on social media I decided to give Witch's Chicken a try as I was craving some late night chicken. Located in the the galleria mall inside the korean mart you will see the chicken stand. Wait time was around 20-25 minutes to get my order, but spent some time shopping inside the korean mart. Hands down the most crispiest, korean fried chicken i've tried so far in ktown. I was able to split the whole chicken between the onion/scallion chicken + sweet/spicy chicken. Perfectly cooked and each piece was super juicy and flavorful! Definitely my go-to chicken spot in ktown. Prices are pretty expensive in my opinion for a whole chicken. I spent $30 total on my order for a whole/split flavored chicken. Notable Menu Items: Onion/Scallion Chicken (Whole) Need to try their other flavors and sides that they offer here. Parking is free in the garage and proceed to the korean galleria marketplace to find the food stand. They do pickup orders through various apps as well. read more

I'm always up for some good fried chicken. So naturally I couldn't pass up an opportunity to try this place when I saw the reviews on Witch's before I stopped in to do some shopping at the Galleria Market. My expectations were pretty high based on all those 5 star reviews. I ordered half original and half mild spicy bbq. The mild spiciness had just enough kick that it didn't set my mouth on fire. The order was ready in 15 mins while I grabbed a few things from the market. The only down side was there was no sit down place to eat it right right away so I had wait until I get home to enjoy the chicken. The traffic home was bad and I couldn't resist the smell of the piping hot chicken and the fried garlic. I decided to try a piece of the chicken. I highly recommend against doing this in the car because one bite and all that crunchy crust exploded sending lots of little pieces flying over all the cabin. LOL. But, boy it was tasty. And the fried garlic tasted like roasted garlic; it was mild and delicious. The drive home took 40+ minutes. The original chicken was still crispy but the bbq sauce made the other a little soggy. Next time, I think I'll just take it upstairs to the food court and demolish it before I leave. read more

Witch's Chicken - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This is my second time ordering chicken from Witch's and this is hands down my favorite chicken place in LA. The first time I went with drumsticks and the second time I went tenders. I am not a huge chicken fan because of the texture and consistency, but the amount of meat on the drumsticks is insane! The tenders are my favorite because it is all tender white meat. My favorite is the garlic soy mild but also love the Korean BBQ and spicy tenders. The tenders keep well in the fridge the next day and I like throwing it into a package salad from the store to liven it up! read more

Witch's Chicken - Spicy tenders, BBQ and garlic soy tenders. - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Head to the back right corner of Koreatown Galleria market and look for the restaurant sign of a witch riding a broom with a chicken. There is no dining in option available as they operate as a takeout restaurant. But you can grab your food and head over to the food court on the top floor to enjoy your wings fresh and hot. My friends and I have been on a KFC (Korean fried chicken) tour to find the best Korean fried chicken. I was excited to try this new place that many people have been raving about. We ordered the original wings, sweet soy wings, and seasoned fries with ranch sauce. The sweet soy wings were nicely marinated in a sweet and savory sauce and was my favorite between the two. The original wings were delicious with a solid batter that wasn't too thick. Both wings were served hot and crispy. Their seasoned fries were amazing and went well between the bites of chicken. I would have to give a 7.5/10 taking into consideration the taste, flavor, and size of the wings. It's a solid place for Korean fried chicken wings and worth a try! One thing I wish we knew beforehand was to bring disposable plates, wet wipes, and more napkins if planning to dine at the food court. read more

I've heard of this place as an underground place to get delicious fried chicken, the first part was definitely true since it's located in the supermarket of a mall The witch's chicken gives you choices of pieces and the ordering was fast and easy Unfortunately the pieces were smaller than I thought for the price, the spicy flavor was good but the sweet soy was pretty mild. The chicken had good crunch but was too dry so I was disappointed at the Korean fried chicken read more

Yall - this place is so good! I have yet to find better Korean fried chicken in LA. The chicken is always cooked to perfection with such delicious sauce. I have only ever tried the spicy k bbq flavor and it's so good. The servings are huge. The boneless meal comes with tteokbokki in it while the bone-in does not. Their fries are also beer battered which are SO delicious but the last time I went they were just serving regular fries. I hope it was not a permanent change but I've been too scared to order the fries again bc I don't want them if they are not beer battered. This restaurant is within the galleria mall. I noticed some other reviews take away a star because of it but it's so fun. You order, and then get to shop around. It is an Asian grocery store so just go in thinking if there's anything you need for your house from there while they make your meal. They also recently added seating (though not much) near Witches Chicken but I usually just take it home. Servers are always super nice and food is cooked quickly! read more

I been a regular to this place for over a year now but things have changed alot. Prices went up and the chicken pieces have been inconsistent every time I would pick up an order. It's like a lotto system on what kinda of chicken you will get. Sometimes its like the size of your fingers and others are the original size they had from the beginning. As others have said the sizes went down and you don't get radish if you don't order through them over the phone. Also kinda of shady thing was when I first got my frequent card it had free drink after 5 stamps and 7 piece wings after 10 stamps. I forgot my card one time and had to get a new one and at the end of the my 10 stamps I told them to combine it together. Only found out when I used my card it had changed to 5 piece instead of 7 and free drink was gone too. Seems friendly over the phone but very shady way of doing business now. Time to find a new place to get my wings. read more

I liked this place but I ordered recently and chicken was really tough and the coating was too heavy... Normally it was tender..

The original drumsticks were perfectly crispy and super juicy. The thing lacking is the flavor. I had to dip each piece into the spicy ketchup to get the flavor to match the quality of the texture. Make sure to ask for extra sauce! Go up to the food court rooftop patio to enjoy. Spacious, with lots of tables and shade. read more

The BEST fried chicken in California!!! I went yesterday for my birthday as I had heard about Korean fried chicken and had been wanting to try it for quite a while. It's located inside the grocery store in the Koreatown Galleria and 100% worth the trip! We ordered everything, the drumsticks, the wings, popcorn chicken and the tenders, the seasoned fries and the sweet potato fries, and every single thing was perfection! The pieces were massive and the Korean BBQ flavor was delicious but hands down the soy garlic was my favorite! Everything was crispy on the outside And juicy inside, exactly what you want ! Already looking forward to our next visit! read more

Witch's Chicken - How cute is she??? The food is made with witchcraft because it is seriously magic :) - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Wow their chicken was so crunchy and delicious even after being out for like 30 minutes (order pickup). The sauce was sweet and salty (just the right amount) and it worked really well with the nuts and rice cakes. Definitely will be ordering from here again! Impressed! read more

Witch's Chicken - Gangjung chicken - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Ordered a 20 piece of the Garlic & Spicy Garlic wings. These are the crispiest wings I've ever had. Each wing had the perfect crunch. The spicy wings were 100% manageable, nice slight kick. The regular garlic were good but tip - the juice falls to the bottom of the box, make sure to dip the wing in it before biting. All the flavor is in the juice. Solid wings. read more

Ordered UberEats on here! The chicken was still crispy when it arrived and the flavor was great. I got the soy garlic and spicy kbbq flavor- I prefered the soy garlic. Would definitely order from again when I'm in the mood for KFC! read more

Wow! That's the best way to start off about this place. First, the service here is top-notch from the frontline staff to the ownership. Kind and welcoming. Then the food came. My whole team ordered a variety of wings and everything was epic one after the other. This little nook of a restaurant is the spot to come to. You won't regret it! read more

I've heard about this place a few times on TikTok and finally decided to give it a try. Hands down, this is my new favorite Korean fried chicken place. They have large portions, the batter and way they cooked the chicken is perfect, and don't even get me started on their soy garlic seasoning. I ordered it via delivery and it still showed up piping hot and crispy. I'll definitely be back to try it IRL. read more

Extraordinarily delicious food. The flavors are consistent and the service is attentive and helpful. Order ahead if you are in a rush. They pack it well so the dishes remain crispy. read more

Two stars because the chicken was good and crispy but I don't think it's made to order because it literally took fifteen minutes for them to execute. We all know fried chicken, especially whole chicken doesn't take fifteen minutes. Just breasts alone takes ten minutes to be done perfectly. This place is one of those place where you order a WHOLE CHICKEN (2 breast, 2wings,2 legs, 2 thighs) they cut the breast into four pieces and make it seem no one will notice that the two thighs is missing. Talk about fraudulent. The place was dirty. Even if it was self serve sitting area, it's still your place to look after. Health violation. Overall, won't come back. I suggest Chicken day, Noya, Kokio, Papa Chicken and Kyochon. You'll get your money's worth. I think it best for people to go elsewhere. Not worth your money. read more

Witch's chicken is located inside Galleria Market next to Baro kimbap. They were really busy because of the super bowl but service was friendly and efficient. I waited about 35 min for my order but I imagine it normally takes less time. I got the whole fried chicken with half regular fried and half spicy garlic soy chicken for around $20. The order comes with 2 pickled radish containers and 2 sauces (extra $0.50 for more sauces). By default, the sauces included are dijon honey mustard and spicy ketchup, but you can request for a different combination ahead of time. I got the spicy kbbq sauce which is the same sauce as one of the flavors they use to toss the chicken. It's the homey, spicy yangnyum sauce I remember growing up! Mustard was good too. By the time I got home the chicken wasn't super crispy anymore but the flavors were still delicious! The breading of the regular fried is flavored so it was pretty good on its own - the side dipping sauces added variety without losing the crisp. The spicy soy comes with roasted garlic and thinly sliced green onion on top. Both were nice complements to the chicken, just wish they had put a little more green onion on top. Spicy soy garlic was flavorful too but definitely more soggy and the sauce did not taste very spicy at all. Overall, the chicken here is quite good and I'll likely visit again. read more

Excellent fried chicken. Probably the best I've had that doesn't contain MSG. I read through all the reviews before deciding on the 6 original drumsticks ($10) and was very impressed. Juicy meat and super crispy and flaky crust and not oily at all. They must have fried in very clean oil because I didn't suffer through the usual heartburn. I didn't see the spicy sauce container included with my order until I've inhaled the entire bucket, so I unfortunately didn't get the full experience but I will definitely come back for more. Located inside the market food court on 1st floor. read more

Witch's Chicken - Whole chicken half spicy and half non spicy - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

If you are looking for korean fried chicken this is a good spot. The flavors are really nice and the cook on the chicken was well done. I would say their spice is on the heavier side so even though I ordered medium it was still very spicy. Also even though I was the only one there the wait was pretty long. I would say if you are in the mall it is worth a try. read more

I think I can die happy and say I went to KFC heaven. Hands down the crispiest chicken I've ever had. We decided to give it a try after reading the rave reviews and I have to say you all didn't lie. We obviously ordered on a weeknight so my fiancé said there was only one person in line ahead of him and this was close to dinner time 7ish. The only thing we wish though is that we had been given more sauce. I might have him drive back tomorrow to get extra jk. But thinking about it . We're going to air fry the leftovers as some of my Korean friends say doing the leftovers air fried the next day are the best. Almost forgot. When I took my first bite off of the drumstick my fiancée said: "that's the loudest crunch I've ever heard!" read more

I've been coming here for so long and even if they raise their prices and the service isn't always the friendliest, I am loyal to this place. I still think it's the best in ktown and at its price point. I love the little extras. The dakganjjng comes w fried tteokbokki and the og crispy comes with deep fried garlic. The fries are out of this world. read more

Never disappoints.. I pop in here every six months and it's soooo good. Keep it simple and keep it uppppp!

The quality... has become worse. The old lady in the front was very rude, not even smiling, or even showing kindness. Yall put less than the BARE minimum of the red sauce. We eat for the flavor and the SAUCE. This is just another level of petty, no? The owner must've changed. I will never be coming this far for your food. We also paid EXTRA dollar for the sauce read more

Witch's Chicken - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

My go-to for Korean fried chicken! I definitely need to branch out more but their K bbq and Soy Garlic chicken are fantastic and that's what I can surely recommend. Amazing price-quality proportion, there's always a side of pickled radish that's perfect to balance out the flavors of your fried chicken. One star off only because of the location, it's inside a Galleria Market food court, which makes it a little less convenient, but totally worth it! Just order and go do your groceries so that it's ready by the time you're finished read more

Nothing bad to say! I got their wings in the sweet soy option. The sweetness and soy was just right. Fries are great as well! They even packed some pickled radish. Would love to come back. read more

The chicken was amazing!! Super crunchy and the fries were very good as well. Highly recommend! As a heads up, it's inside a grocery store. read more

Witch's Chicken - Spicy wings, sweet soy wing, and fries - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I love korean fried chicken and this place definitely hit the spot! It's located inside of the Galleria Supermarket now, in the corner next to the cash registers, not in the food court. I got the 10 pc half and half of the sweet soy mild and the kbbq mild (about $20 after taxes). I don't have the best spice tolerance levels myself, but I'll probably try the spicy versions next time for a little extra kick (so if you can't handle spice, the mild flavors are very good). Anyway, the wings had great breading and were very flavorful. I think I liked both flavors equally, so definitely recommend getting the half and half! It wasn't crowded when I ordered, but the wings still took about 15 minutes, so I guess they're made to order. They have a couple of tables located next to their stand that were very clean (with a packet of hand wipes on each table), or you could probably go up to the food court if you need more seating. Overall, I'll be looking forward to shopping at Galleria again so I can pick up these wings on the way! read more

Witch's Chicken - Soy Garlic Mild (Large) - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Boy do still waters run deep. I was completely taken by surprise at this small to-go place tucked quietly in the corner of the Galleria grocery store. I'd walked by this place at least 10 times over the past year, before curiosity finally got the better of me, and I decided to try their regular "plain" and Korean bbq chicken wings. The only thing I can say is I'm SUPER ANNOYED that I didn't try this place sooner..... DEFinitely one of my top 3 favorite places for fried chicken. The only bad about the place is that it isn't a sit-down restaurant, but it's so OMG good that I'll eat it in the car, in the bathtub, or sneak it into a movie theater nearby. I don't care.... it's DELISH! One of the crispiest, tastiest...... I can't even describe it. It's like having your favorite childhood cereal... if cereal were chicken.... (see? I'm doing a terrible job. Just know it's SOOO good). Very reasonably priced, and I usually go with either the whole chicken or half chicken, almost every Sunday. Go! You won't regret it! read more

Witch's Chicken - Korean Near Me - Los Angeles, California

This used to be my favorite chicken place but it has gone downhill.. we ordered 2 whole chickens of the soy garlic flavor 2 days ago and the chicken was so dry and the sauce was super salty. They also no longer give out their honey mustard and spicy sauce on the side like how they used to -- they charge $1.25(?) now which I think is ridiculous. My mom called to let them know the chicken was super salty and the lady that received the phone call basically said it is just us that complained about the flavor and if we want it less salty we should ask for less soy sauce... LOL very disappointed with the service and chicken we received this day and will never go there now. read more

Yummie KFC (Korean Fried Chicken)!!! The owners are very friendly and the service was mwaaahh *chef's kiss* We ordered the 5pc original and 5pc K BBQ mild (hubby cant handle the spice ) The spice on the mild K BBQ was still a bit spicy, i love that and tasted better than other friend chicken places in the area. Im a fan of the original recipe and this def did not disappoint. Would recommend to others and will eat there again! read more

Located inside a Korean supermarket, the Witch's Kitchen is inside at the corner of the food court. The prices there are extremely reasonable. The flavor we had chosen was the sweet soy garlic, (large with 15 pieces, priced at $16.50). Including wings and drumsticks, they had a bit more of a sweet taste. I barely tasted any of the garlic. We also ordered fries ($4) as well. The fries we had received were lightly crispy, golden brown, and thick cut. There was nothing special about them besides that. After waiting for around 20 minutes for our food, it was ready. The sauces we had received were wasabi aioli and spicy ketchup. It also comes with daikon as well if you want to cleanse your palette. Overall, this place is solid! The chicken is extremely juicy while the skin was crunchy. They have a bunch of different flavors too, so you can explore what you'd want to try out. read more

Came here because a friend suggested it. It's located inside a market, in like a small food court area. Ordered the original fried chicken and soy spicy wings. They remind me of Bonchon wings and are on the cheaper side. The original fried chicken was super crispy and had a good texture. The spicy wings were also good but on the smaller side. We also got the spicy ketchup dipping sauce which was pretty good. Overall the food was good, however the location is kinda weird and out of the way, had to cut through people who were waiting in line at the market to pay to get over. I wouldn't go out of my way to go back though unless I was ever in this specific area! For parking, there's a parking structure though not sure if you have to pay or not. I found parking on the street! read more
