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.

We ordered a chicken curry katsu, a 8 piece boneless soy garlic chicken, and 4 piece drumstick spicy soy garlic. We even got served little pre-meal treats before the courses came out; flavorful. The rice cakes were so fresh and none super chewy; just the right amount of chew and softness. All of it was delicious. The crispiness was nice without drying the meat; nor was it oily. For under $50, very much worth it!

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.

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.

I came back today after really enjoying my first visit, but unfortunately this experience was…read moredisappointing. The taco tater tot combo is $15.99 and the portion was very minimal. It was just two small tacos and about seven tater tots max. It used to come with two different sauces to try out but this time we only received a green one. To make matters worse, I ordered and paid for an extra taco that was never included. Kinda had a feeling that was going to happen since the 2 woman behind the counter seemed lost with what they were doing. In total, I paid around $40 for two platters including a tip and left still feeling hungry, which is frustrating for the price especially considering just a year ago that same dish was 10.99 On a positive note, the tacos themselves were decent but overall, this visit didn't live up to our first experience. We won't be back.

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!

Today I was very excited to order the crab corndog and ended up being very disappointed with it. It tasted very unpleasant and off smell to it from the first bite. The outside of the corndog had a great crisp but there wasn't any flavor. The filling also had no flavor added to it but the imitation crab itself tasted very unpleasant. There seems to be a big change in quality from about two years ago or so. I was a regular customer so this was a bit disappointing. This used to be my favorite spot for korean corndogs and Ive tried a majority of the menu. Before, it was consistently delicious but it hasn't been the same recently. The spicy mayo also costs additional while it used to be available on the table of toppings. I did get the spicy mayo afterwards hoping it would be the missing piece but it wasn't it. However, the place itself is cute and colorful, it's a nice place to stop by and the service was quick.
