    1 Combo
    Eric H.

    This is a great fried chicken spot to go to if you're in the area or maybe looking to go to the spa next door or going for a grocery run at H-Mart. The fried chicken was amazing. We ordered the large combo #1 with wings and drumsticks. The chicken was perfectly fried with the right amount of crisp and juicy on the inside without being too salty or leaving you dehydrated afterwards. We got a side of rice and a side of fries. The fries were also perfect and overall the food was delicious. Service was about average where it took about 15 minutes for the food to come out but it was worth the wait. Ambiance is casual inside...most people take the food to go but if you have a chance to eat the food inside, I would definitely recommend it so that the chicken is the most fresh and crispy when you eat it.

    1 Combo half-half

    Clean restaurant. Just order at tablet and the order will be ready in about 10-15 min. We got combo 1 half-half with the pickled daikon. The chicken was very crunchy but that's it. The spicy sauce was not spicy, just sweet. The non-spicy chicken was salty. After eating away at the batter, the chicken itself was plain, but juicy. I think it's easy if they brined the chicken before frying so that the chicken could have more flavor. The daikon was as it should- sweet and crunchy.

    Love this place. Parking is frustrating because it's in the H Mart shopping plaza but don't let it deter you. Super casual. The food takes a while to come out but it's always fresh and hot. The fries are incredible because they're double fried. Highly recommend paying for the extra wing sauce to dip them in. It's on par price wise with similar places. Both the mild and hot flavored sauces are great. My only gripe is the chicken size inconsistency. I paid for a five piece but two of the pieces were extra tiny while the others where medium-large so not very consistent. Every time I go there's it's a mix of sizing. However it's so delicious it's worth it.

    Popcorn Chicken
    Neil M.

    First time here and I was skeptical, but ended up pleasantly surprised. Ordered the popcorn chicken (spicy) with rice and it took over 13 minutes to come. Not what I'd expect of popcorn chicken but it was piping hot and fresh and juicy. A little too saucy IMO but it was tasty.

    Legs or wings, and no legs when opened so we went with wings. Two flavors only, soy garlic and spicy, and so we went half and half in a small order ($18 for 7-10 wings).Brice or pickled diakon? Pickled diakon of course. Crunchy and sweet, but not overpoweringly so for the mild. The spicy had the same flavor with a little spice that didn't lose the flavor so that was better than other places. Greasy? Yes. It is fried chicken. Busy? Yes, a lot of pickup orders (ordered online and picked up). Definitely will try again!

    Came here right after our visit to Hmart. It was lunchtime on a Sunday; the entire shopping plaza was busy so inevitably there was a bit of a wait here that day. We arrived in a group of 6 and secured a large dining table for all to fit comfortably! Inside isn't anything fancy. We waited maybe 20-25 mins for all of our food, luckily seated, since we were dining in. The food was phenomenal. It exceeded what I was expecting for a fast-food style chicken spot. Speaking on the fried food (we got wings, sweet potato fries, fried dumplings), they were so light and crispy that I wondered whether it might be air fried!... my family all agreed on that too. Some of our plates included a small serving of vegetable salad. It's always a pleasant addition when included to go along such a savory spread. Would I come again? Absolutely. It's nice to find good quality Korean fried chicken and a nice selection of side to go with it. You also can't beat the location, surrounded by plenty of other shops to get goodies from... although parking is a quest if it's busy!

    I'm such a huge fan of boom boom, the chicken is just amazing. We always get the same thing, the large number one with rice, side of fries and dumplings which come with a salad. The chicken is so sweet and crunchy. I won't eat fried chicken anywhere else anymore.

    Amazing !!!! Best fried chicken I've tasted from a chicken place in Edison.
    Mannie J.

    Chicken is cooked to crisp perfection. The flavoring is well fried within the skin. One of the best chicken spots in NJ.

    I'm way overdue for doing a review for Boom Boom Chicken! I've been going their for years and they've never disappointed me. Their Korean fried chicken is really delicious! You can customize your level of spiciness, I usually get it spicy but I'm sure the others are just as good. Once you order your food sometimes it might take about 15-20 mins but its worth the wait because at least you know that you're getting very freshly made food. If it's your first time you can try their lunch special or now they have an all day special too. But if you just want wings then you can surely get that too. I would suggest you place your order and then go browsing around in the plaza, maybe go get some Bubble Tea! So if you haven't tried it yet, next time you're in the area and going to H-Mart, give Boom Boom Chicken a try!

    Mixed Wings and Drumsticks
    Eronini D.

    I placed an order for a small Mixed Wings and Drumstick. They give you an option for a side of sweet and sour radish or white rice. I opted for the half and half wings which was half spicy and have mild with a side of white rice through Uber Eats. It arrived really quickly. The packaging looked intact, upon opening the box, the first thing I realized were the drumsticks were very huge! 3x the size of any Korean style wings I have had any place else or any wings I have had which made it impossible to get it crispy because of how big they were. After taking my first bite I also realize it wasn't as flavorful and not spicy at all. The mild wings were very plain with no flavor and the spicy didn't even taste mild. The rice was very sticky and had no flavor either and both the wings and rice were very cold for an order that arrived pretty fast. Total failed. The lady I spoke with over the phone was very nice though. I personally won't reorder here again.

No longer do clients have to fight over raw galbi to bring back to their tables. Now it's a little more sanitary - you order your meats and the server brings it to the table. You still have to grill it yourself. They are one of the rare ayce kbbq restaurants that has LA galbi! Alao featured of course is pork belly, and various other beef cuts depending on the tier you choose. We chose the cheaper tier and it was still great. The price was amazing. I think it came out to around 30 per person after tax and tip. They are byob too. Besides parking, i like everything about this place more than Butcher 360.

    K-BBQ always a yes for me!!…read more We came here for Thanksgiving and it was cool since no dishes needed to be cleaned, no groceries, no cooking, no prepping... sometimes you just need to take a break. It wasn't crowded at all when we came at 1pm. We had a party of 6 and the booth fit us comfortably. On a holiday, each person was $31.95. If you wanted to upgrade to the premium which had the waygu and more it was an additional $20 and that means each person would need to pay the same price so we opted out of the premium and it was a great choice since everything was delicious. So you get to select 4 meats at a time and then your sides. And of course the complimentary items like Kimchi, Radish, their own style of Mashed Potaotes. My favorites: - Pork belly (all different flavors) - for the plain pork belly dip it in the sesame sauce and salt so yum - Bulgogi - Shrimp with the heads Sides: - Japchae - Corn Cheese - make sure to heat it up on the grill before eating - don't make my mistake lol - I love steamed egg and they didn't have it so that's why they didn't get 5 stars from me - Of course white rice Dessert was the Hotteok - really good! Note: You cook your meats (not like Cast Iron which I prefer who cook it for you) and each time our 4 meats are done they would give us a new pan to grill. Be careful with the carbs... you easily can get full. Enjoy your meal ours was yummy and hit the spot.

Wooram used to be located in Hmart's food court, where we would religiously order their deokkbeokki with egg and cheese and spicy stir-fry pork. Excited to see the spot's new standalone location and relive all of our favorite dishes!!! The space is pretty small, with a counter area opening up to a dining area with only a handful of tables. Specials (including fun calligraphy and illustrations!) are written on a chalkboard wall serving as decoration for the dining area. Unfortunately this makes it pretty hard to see the specials from the ordering counter. We had to wait a while for a table of four to be ready, but we ordered ahead - so all of our dishes came right when we were seated! Awesome! The waiter provided us with cold tea once we sat down, which was a great cold contrast to the bubbling warmth of our dishes. APPETIZERS: Deokkbeokki -- Perfect. Absolutely perfect. The spicy flavor and chewy texture of the rice cakes were the best, even better than in my memory. One callout is I do wish cheese would be an available upgrade to the dish. I'll make sure to ask next time! MAINS: Ox bone soup -- The seollongtang was exactly what I wanted on a cold day. It came bubbling hot in its bowl, with thin noodles, pieces of meat, and scallion garnish in the broth. I really loved the warm and savory taste of the soup! I wasn't too big a fan of the noodle texture - a bit too chewy for my tastes - but it came with a bowl of rice that I ate with the soup instead. Comes with an accompanying portion of salt and spicy bean paste for you to flavor the soup to your liking. The bibimbap and spicy squid and pork stir-fry came with hot stone bowl upgrades for $1. Super worth it for the crispy texture and experience! The beef intestine soup was also delicious, would recommend if you're a fan of intestine. Overall - if you're looking for classic Korean dishes, I would really recommend Wooram!!!

I've eaten at Ottoyee for months now, and each experience has been incredibly delicious. However, the only thing is that the wait time can run very long. Not for the food to arrive, but for placing the order. We tried to get the attention of the waiter on staff multiple times, but was either ignored or they were behind the screen attending to something else. The wait time was around 15-20 minutes, but this is likely attributed to the small staff. Otherwise though, they were incredibly kind and knowledgeable of the menu and we still had a delicious experience as usual.

    I so wanted to love this place, and was so excited to try it when reading the menu. Otoro? Ramen?…read moreGyudon? It all sounded like the perfect restaurant, but I'm really hesitant to return. Upon entertaining on a weekend evening, there were a few tables with patrons but not too busy. The restaurant did seem a bit understaffed with only one person taking orders / bringing food out, making it difficult to flag down this one person to successfully take our order and ask for anything additional throughout the night. Gyudon: for the price, we were really surprised at how small of a portion this was. It was not only in a small bowl, but the meat was layered on top perfectly deceiving you to think that there was more than there actually was. The majority of this dish was rice, and with limited sauce at that. As displayed on the menu images it was to be served with a runny egg, but unfortunately we got a fully cooked one (disappointing, as we were looking for something to mix with the rice!) Sushi: We got a 3 rolls and they were just alright. They were pretty small in size, with less rice than I'm used to (which is something I do like - I would rather more fish than rice!) With us getting spicy salmon, spicy tuna, and spicy scallop - they all kind of tasted the same, so I wish the fish wasn't as heavily masked with spicy mayo. Ramen: I got the black garlic ramen, and it wasn't the best, but wasn't the worst. I've purchased fresh ramen packages in the supermarket before and it tasted just like that, so it made me disappointed knowing I could achieve the same at home. The soup itself was extremely rich and fatty, and the charsiu had no flavor whatsoever leaving much to be desired. The main reason I'm rating this so low is upon having my last bites of sushi, I could tell something was off. I don't recall which specifically I had but I made a statement that it was extremely fishy and off putting. Fast forward later that night, I was hunched over the toilet vomiting with stomach pain - and I can deduct that the sushi was the culprit. I might consider trying Ottoyee again due to the great deals they have listed on food delivery apps, but the sushi quality (quite literally) put a bad taste in my mouth.
