Fried goodness.
Steven R.

Great wings and crinkle fries in a cute Mom and Pop shop. Fried to perfection. Super nice owners. We liked the "Hot Fried" the best. Kind of a dry rub. The Soy Garlic was a little sweet. We asked and they gave us a little kimchi on the side. Check them out if you are a fan of Korean Fried Chicken.

Tteokbokki

Without a doubt, some of the best Korean chicken around! It's always a must-order with any meal at Wow Chicken & Cupbop. I've visited three times now, and each experience has been fantastic--zero complaints. The drink selection is impressive, featuring fruity, boba, and unique Korean beverages that are hard to find elsewhere. The service is top-notch as well! The staff, particularly the women, are incredibly hardworking and ensure excellent service. I absolutely love this place--the fries, dumplings, Korean chicken, and tteokbokki (spicy rice cakes)--everything is just so delicious

Honey garlic Fried Chicken
Gracie L.

Truly a hole in the wall, if you know you know kind of place! The most crispy and crunchy fried chicken that is our personal favorite when we're on this side of town. Korean fried chicken is top tier and we love their honey garlic flavor and using the fries to dip into the sauce. Super yummy! These Korean aunties know how to throw it down in the kitchen. Youre not getting world class service but that's truly not the point! These ladies know what they're doing and their food speaks to it! Some advanced options I was impressed by with their shik-hye (sweet rice drink) and their hwe naengmyun (raw fish spicy cold noodles) if you're not into raw fish like that I would definitely get the regular bibim cold noodles because the flavors of their sauces are super yummy. A well rounded spot with its unapologetic authenticity. With gateway drug chicken to lure you in, and delicious specialty dishes for you to explore and try!

Coconut drink
Ruthie W.

It's been a while since our first visit to Wow Chicken Cupbop. It was so good, it was time to visit again. There were definitely more drink choices. Dad had the Coconut drink, mine was the Melon version, and hubby had the Arizona drink. We bought a tub of kimchi and file fish each and was enjoying that while we waited for the food. We got the 6-piece wings in Honey Garlic and Sweet & Spicy with fries and can of Lemonade. I love, love their flavorful Japchae. Best in town, in my opinion. Also got the 7-piece drumstick in Original and Sweet & Spicy. They gave us complimentary daikon radish and kimchi. All so good and plenty of food to take home.

A hole in the wall, but don't let that discourage you from trying the food and all its flavors! Small family business so go show your support. We came in and nobody else was there, so pretty quiet. We placed our order, and the food came soon after. I really enjoyed my food! Especially the dumplings ;they were bustting. Super juicy and now on my top 3 choices for dumplings. I really enjoyed my pork cutlet it was crunchy and the sauce on top was perfect! My plate was 10/10 big portions had to take some home! The SPICY nuggets are no joke they got some serious kick! Super good but super hot They have lots of options to drink from and some Korean drinks in the fridge. A very homie space And once we finished our meal and left all the ladies that were there told us goodbye

We've visited this place for the second time and the quality stays the same. Food is served fresh and hot - chicken is crispy and savory. The hot stone bibimbap was one the best I had with their really good chili sauce which came with soup and side dishes. The service was always nice and getting good vibes from this place. It feels homey and close to Asia when I am here. The place also serves some korean drinks and side dishes. One of the good places that i'll surely recommend.

I've come here once a week every week since I've been in SA. My friend says the fried chicken is something special. I got chajangmyun this time. It was hearty and generous portion. Parking at lunch can be a challenge so you may have to go in the back of the lot.

Best Korean fried chicken spot in San Antonio, Texas. We randomly tried this spot while looking for Korean restaurants near the Korean market area. Ratings were good so we decided to give it a go. Theres two categories to their menu: Korean fried chicken and Korean food. We ordered a 7 Piece sweet and spicy along with a 10 piece drumstick in soy garlic. The chicken came out piping hot and delicious. My preference is the sweet and spicy! There's a real good kick to it and irresistibly addictive. I can't stop thinking to go back as it's rare to find Korean fried chicken in San Antonio. Next time, I want to try the Korean noodle options they have. Also, they sell Korean side dishes in fridges which looks pretty legit. Worth a try!

First of all, I'm a wheelchair user and the establishment had a handicap spot with a ramp so I…read moredidn't need help to get in. The seating time took about 30 seconds and was spacious so my wheelchair wasn't hitting any other tables. The staff was nice, very hard working and the food was brought to us in less then 15 minutes. The first thing We recieved was the bulgogi (Korean beef short ribs) and it came with rice and all these amazing side dishes The flavor of the beef was super tender, delicious, and the best seasoned beef in all of San Antonio We also got the hangover beef stew soup and every single bit was filled with perfectly cooked vegetables with tender bits of beef and with the most flavorful broth, not too spicy but with a little kick. Delicious and it also came with a side of rice. I give the bulgogi a 9/10 And the hangover soup 10/10 Super delicious

Came here for dinner and it was great. I got the fried dumplings (mandu) as an appetizer and they…read morewere really good! Good amount of filling and great crispiness of the wrapper. There were 7 different banchan options, and some were great while others were just okay. The fish cake and kimchi cucumbers were good, but others like the kimchi and the bean sprouts could have used more flavor. As an entree, I ordered the spicy tofu soup, but I wish it was a little spicier! The soup also had a stronger seafood/fish taste compared to other tofu soups I've had, which I didn't expect. The service was just okay, not rude but also not excessively nice. I liked how cozy the inside felt with the dim lighting!

There were lots of people waiting to be seated by the time we left. That being said, there is a 2 hour dining limit. I read other reviews in which people felt like they were being rushed. We didn't feel that way at all. Our server did let us know about the time at the very beginning and gave us a heads up at the one hour mark. No biggie. Speaking of servers, ours was John. He was excellent! It was our first time there and he was great about explaining how everything went and gave us good tips on ordering. He checked on us throughout the meal, never hovering but always right there when we needed him. The staff and the Kpot bear came around with a birthday song and dessert for my husband which was a nice touch. The food is excellent! I feel like you can't go wrong no matter what you order. All of the meats were well marinated and easy to cook. Spicy pork belly was my favorite. The grill is set at a temperature where you won't burn anything. It all came out delicious! 10/10 food, experience and service. We will definitely be back.

4.5 Stars. After attending "Shen Yuen" I wanted to do…read moresomething special to heighten that experience. Chas Market & Kitchen had been long on my list and since it was minutes away, seemed like the most logical choice. I have constantly heard people sing its praises. I will say I'm not versed in Korean fare. I had previously went to another Korean Restaurant and had a terrible experience. It is somewhere on the outskirts of the Eastside, alongside the highway. From the exterior it feels like a neighborhood convenient store. Once inside the room opens up with ample seating and tables. I noticed the tables that are specifically for their "All You Can Eat" menu but that's for another review. Along the walls are fridges with drinks and little knick knacks. It reminded me of a bodega. After we found a seat a server came and left menus. The menu is really extensive. I decided on their beef bulgogi, again a redo after the previous restaurant fiasco. A hip soundtrack is playing overhead, which I believe gives the place a modern vibe. Before I go on I must include that the server was excellent. I say this as he was very attentive but still able to work the rest of the room. Whenever I go to a new place sometimes I feel an anxiety. My fear is being disappointed and having wasted my time. But my impression is that it is an ultra laid back place. You can leave your Armani suit and Louboutin shoes at home. When the food came to the table it was served on a plate steaming similar to a fajita plancha. The server brought over accompanying small dishes that are meant to be added to the bulgogi. The small dishes contained: kimichi, spicy cucumbers, radish etc. Combining any or all with the dishes heightened the flavors. I think this was the most unique tasting thing I've had this year. In addition if you want a drink you have to choose one from their wall of fridges. I think this might dissuade some patrons but again, the overall experience is like that of a bodega. If you are looking for great Korean food with excellent service by all means go to Chas Market & Kitchen. So far this year this has been the restaurant with the most unique flavors. It is perfect for a date night, friends or with family. And I have to, have to absolutely do their "All You Can Eat" where you cook all items. I'm buying if someone else is doing the cooking.

Highly recommend the clay pot bimbombop. The rice on the bottom gets crispy like pegao…read more You can sit down and order and they have a server waiting on you before it used to be order at the counter. You can also shop around and add it to your bill. I like to get some ice cream for the afterburn. The Tteokbokki sauce wasn't as thick as other places plus they don't put cheese on it. It's original classic Tteokbokki.

Skip K-Pot and eat here. YOU WON'T REGRET IT!…read more For starters, the inside of the restaurant is cozy. Very clean, spacious, and you can hear your thoughts. The staff is attentive and our drink orders were taken as soon as we sat. The waitress was patient with us and explained how the all you can eat works. We were used to K-Pot where you just order and order, whereas here you have a limit to what and how much you can order. You are limited to so many items at a time, and we found ourselves actually enjoying that. We were not overwhelmed with too much food and no space. You don't have to get up from your table at all, everything is brought to you. All of the sides they bring you to go with the all you can eat are so thought out and flavorful. The noodles, the cucumbers and the squash, everything. And everything is prepared fresh. All of our sides and soup came out hot and steaming. Not like heat lamp hot, like fresh out of the pan hot. We got the ttekboki, fried dumplings, and vegetable tempura. They were all delicious! Now the quality of the meats here is MILES beyond the chain KBbQ places. All of the cuts were a decent thickness, and were portioned quite well. They were very flavorful. We ordered thinly sliced steak, spicy bulgogi, bbq chicken, and pork belly. All were delicious. We were a table of 3 adults and 2 kids and did not even get a refill on the meats. They also have a smoke vent to help with the grill. We really appreciated that. And we never had to change our grill, because things did not burn. Often at other places they are walking around having to change grills 4-5 times. Overall, this has become our favorite Korean Restaurant. We already have plans to return and bring friends and family. Give this place a try. The food speaks for itself, but the service and people are also awesome. 25 years in business, and it shows! (We ate everything, had no leftovers, and failed to take pictures because we were so into the food haha)

We ordered the pork bulgogi and Galbi ribs and everything was absolutely delicious! my husband is Korean and he approved of the quality of the food (taste)! Overall, great experience! My brother and sis in law loved it as well. We will definitely be returning, even though it is a far drive! It's worth it! Highly recommend!
