It's literally your classic garlic soy flavor but with a slight kick - Soy Chicken (4.75/5): just as good and an option for those who don't want spice The chicken is very juicy, and never dry. It does get tossed in a glaze, so the crunchy batter can eventually get soggy if you let it sit for a bit too long. They provide gloves to dig in, and tteokbokki on the side. I never tried any of their other menu items, but the fried chicken is a must get.

So much potential, such high hopes, but ultimately disappointing. It was the overcooked chicken…read morethat caused this and, as expected, dark meat was much less affected by this than white meat. And since I prefer white meat, the dry white meat parts were literally tough to swallow. The white radish was aged well, perhaps too well, so it didn't have the crisp crunch we've come to expect. There were several things these guys did well that give me hope for a possible next visit. First, the sauce for the sweet chilli chicken was on point, and theirs is the sauce-y kind which I like. One of the three sides, the rice cakes, was my favourite part of the whole meal. The rice cakes were tender and a perfect bite size, and the sauce was the right blend of sweet and spicy that doesn't hurt my stomach. The dining room is nice and open, and decor was surprisingly whimsical (pictured). The vinyl glove was a nice touch and saved me from using utensils to get meat off the bones. I'd consider going back. When I do, I expect a solid 5-star experience.

Very satisfying CRUNCHY chicken!!…read more The batter is well seasoned, smelled like KFC chicken, but the taste is absolutely next level. Food was ordered via Uber Eats, and despite the driving being 10min, food arrived piping hot and crispy.

We stopped by Pelicana Chicken again on our recent trip to NJ, excited to relive the great…read moreexperience we had last time. The chicken was still solid--crispy, flavorful, and exactly what we'd expect. But I was a bit let down by the stir-fried chicken gizzard this time. The flavor and texture were actually very good, but the new packaging really took away from the enjoyment. They switched to a paper box instead of the old foil container, and by the time I got to my hotel, the box had leaked and turned soggy. It honestly made me lose my appetite, which was disappointing since this dish was my absolute favorite before. :( I'm hoping the packaging issue was just an oversight, because it has been my go-to spot for late-night comfort food. I'd definitely return for the chicken, but I am crossing my fingers they reconsider the takeout containers, especially for saucy dishes like the gizzard.

We normally do…read moretakeout, but today we dined in and the experience was actually really pleasant -- calm, clean, and easy. The food was amazing. The chicken was perfectly crunchy (the kind that actually stays crunchy), and the flavors were on point. The sweet and spicy sauce was delish -- just the right balance -- and the soy garlic was packed with flavor without being overpowering. The radish was fresh and refreshing, and the shrimp tempura was also really good -- light, crispy, and not greasy. Whether you're grabbing takeout or sitting down, this place knows what it's doing. Reliable, flavorful, and always satisfying. We'll definitely keep coming back.

Price is very affordable for the portion tho.

I came here recently and noticed that the menu had changed a little. They updated their taco menu,…read moreso I had to give it a try. I got four steak tacos, "New School" style ($11), which come with melted Mexican cheese blend, cilantro, onions, and chipotle mayo. I also made it a combo ($4), which comes with your choice of tater tots or chips with nacho cheese, plus a drink. I opted for them taters. The steak tacos were great, and I also tried the spicy pulled pork tacos, which were really good. I was so stuffed, but I still managed to get one churro down. The churros were excellent and freshly made. I enjoyed the updated taco menu, and I'll definitely be back to try some of the other proteins and the birria tacos.

Genuinely a treat. What an awesome spot…read more My friends told me a lot about this place and I thought I'd pay it a visit. Thankfully I was really satisfied and delighted by the quality. I honestly think these were some of the best tacos I've had in NJ, maybe ever. Awesome service, cool and exciting atmosphere. I really loved the creative avenue with the sauce containers. Utilizing the syringes was a cool take and an awesome tactic for sauce application.

Ordered: Whole Chicken - Large 18pc (~$26): half soy garlic…read moreand half spicy; with sweet & sour radish Sweet Potato Fries (~$5) Haitai Bong Bong Grape Drink (complimentary; ~$2 regular price) Aya's take: There is nothing better than some Korean fried chicken after a long day of being out & about. I've been to a different Boom Boom Chicken location but this one was cleaner, brighter, and had more seating. We were greeted by Esther the owner who was very friendly. Since we were hungry, we opted for the Whole Chicken which is the large option totally about 18pc. They have 2 main flavors so we got both. The chicken was so unbelievably fresh, crispy, and had just the right amount of flavor on every single piece. The soy garlic was savory and well-seasoned while the spicy was super tolerable but definitely started to kick in after a few pieces. I love that they put fried tteokbokki (rice cakes)! Since they were fried, it reduced some of that gelatinous, chewy texture and actually made it even more enjoyable. The Sweet Potato Fries were a nice addition and the sweet & sour radish are an absolute must with Korean fried chicken. The Haitai Bong Bong Grape Drink was refreshing and fruity; you even get real grape pieces that "burst" in your mouth. If you're in the area, you have to check them out! It's reasonably priced and I left feeling full & satisfied!

One of my favorite Korean fried chicken places in North Jersey…read more We've ordered take out from here a few times and usually get the Snow Onion and Soy Garlic Tikkudak. The Snow Onion is fried chicken topped with sliced onions and a creamy honey mustard -like sauce. The Soy Garlic Tikkudak is fried chicken that is fried and then baked for extra crispiness and crunchiness. These are special and not just basic fried chicken. But if you want simple, CM Chicken has that, too. I promise that if you try the Snow Onion or the Tikkudak, you'll enjoy them a lot though.
