    Chicken
    Jeff S.

    I was in the area for work and someone recommended this place to me so we gave it a try. It was lunchtime on a Wednesday and I got the 4 piece special for 11.99. My coworker got the spicy popcorn chicken platter with rice and fries , and salad. His belly was hungry that day my friend. Mine had two wings and two drumsticks with fries and a green salad. The salad had balsamic dressing on it and it was good. The fries were okay. I don't like the little ketchup packets, if you're going to serve fries, make ketchup available. The four piece was a mixed of hot and mild. It had good flavor and was fried fresh. It wasn't spectacular but was solid. I would go back if this is what I was in the mood for.

    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.

    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.

    All Day Special $9.99 w/ 6 pcs chicken

    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!

Service was tied with the food for first place! Starting with the friendly and helpful hostess, every single employee offered a greeting and a smile. Our server was Elijah, he was wonderful! Warm, friendly and professional. He was attentive and perceptive. He didn't hover but anytime we needed he re-appeared. We were greeted by two out of the three managers, 10 out of 10. Now for the food! We ordered the rice balls, maple wings a Pepper pig pizza and for my cocktail I had the blue Hawaiian. Every thing was delicious hot and freshly made. The outside and inside are visually appealing. I would describe it as modern meets industrial with a nice dose or rustic, very nice.

To make matters worse, a server took away one of the pizza trays while my dad was still actively eating from it--I'm not exaggerating. It was only 9:04 PM, and we were simply finishing our meal before leaving. On top of that, I ordered the Bucatini, and it was severely overcooked. My mom ordered another pasta that also wasn't good. Overall, a very disappointing dining experience with poor service and subpar food.

I noticed AFTER we ordered that there was a cocktail special that night. Our waitress never mentioned any specials, so I tried to flag her down after I had already ordered a different one not on the list. I mentioned to the hostess what I needed, and I hung out waiting for our waitress at the front. After waiting at least 15 min for her to show up from the back, I was able to ask her to change my drink order. The food here is FABULOUS. We got the housemade Irish soda bread and it was amazing. Hubby got the shepherd's pie and it was delicious. I got the lamb chops over asparagus and mashed potatoes and it was FANTASTIC ! I don't know if our waitress was new or what, but our meals were delivered without silverware. We waited several minutes, then finally flagged down another waitress so that we could eat ! If it wasn't for the poor service, this place could easily be 5 stars due to the fabulous food. Thankfully we got out of there before the live music started, loud music is not our vibe. At the very end of the meal, somehow my original drink order made an appearance (that's what I was afraid of, that she didn't cancel the order). The folks at the table next to us ordered the exact same cocktail, so when the bar tried to give it to us, the waitress told them to give it to the table next to us instead. Geez, we were already paying for our meal at the time. Lol The manager did come out and the end of the meal to ask how things were. I did mention I thought our waitress might be new. I didn't get an answer as to if she was, but I posed it more as a statement than a question.

Ambiance was....ok - from the outside it looks like a normal restaurant and inside they decorated it really really well. I wouldn't say fine dining but definitely a nice hole in the wall type place. We got the following: Phuket Appetizer for 2 - included 2 chicken satay (delicious), 2 curry puffs (good, but I don't like potato so meh for me), noodle salad (SO good), 2 vegetable spring rolls (decent) Sautéed noodles Phuket style- honestly didn't know what I was expecting but they definitely taste very street food style and I really enjoyed them. They're very different from the regular Thai noodles. Green curry- spicy but tolerable and tasty!! If you're not really a spice person, would not recommend. It came with white rice Thai Fried Rice - I tasted like an onion and tomato roast base in this. Typically fried rice I feel is a bit drier but here it was not saucy but there was something in there that made the rice burst with flavor. Matcha yuzu- def recommend! A nice light fizzy drink. Majority of the taste is matcha Dessert- I really wanted to try one from their vast menu but I was sooooo full from the rest of the meal. Maybe next time :)

I go here out of pure convenience and because its closer to me than the actual good places. Not to mention that the other places are closed certain times. This place never fails to disappoint . Eating here is a dice roll The food containers got alot smaller when you order take out The price went up on the food But the quality only goes down Very oily. If you call in an order expect that they get the order wrong because they arent fluent in english
