Kimbap was really fresh and tasty. We got the half and half spam /bulgogi. I preferred the bulgogi. Also got the chan chan tteokbokki with flat noodles. We got mild because my friend can't handle spicy and the mild was borderline too spicy for her. For me as a spice lover it was perfect. The wide noodles were nice and chewy. They weren't great next day but that was expected. You could choose wheat or rice tteokbokki and we got rice. It was served w soy sauce pickled radish w jalapeño and kimchi. Both were good. The kimchi was tasty although not typical... more sweet and sesame oil tasting. Would def be back if I lived in the area. The kimbap was super good and their fried chicken looked really good.
Great food, wonderful customer service, and a clean, inviting atmosphere. I'm so happy I found Chan Chan and will definitely be coming back for more kimbap! Highly recommend giving them a try!
Best ramen of its kind, exactly what I was craving. The bean sprouts were super fresh and the broth was amazing. Great service and clean. Huge huge portions though so maybe bring a friend!
We went here for dinner and this location doesn't serve liquors..abit bumped since it goes so well with fried chicken. We ordered a combo of fried chicken, Tteokbokki, and spicy pork kimbap, plus mixed assorted Fried Basket (seafoods & veggies). The portion is quite big and we do have some left over for lunch. The foods are quite nice and well cooked & well seasoned. As for the prices, very reasonable. Service is nice and friendly. The place is right on the corner of the strip so it has all windows from all 3 sides. So it well lite and clean plus spacious. Parking is good with front and back. Overall, not bad for a good & big portion meal at reasonable price and with nice & friendly service.
Food is yummy and has big portions. Service is also nice, it's usually fairly empty. the place has nice music and is very clean. Rose pasta, spicy ham and sausage noodles and chan chan rice cakes are my top dishes. I wish you could add meat like ham or spam onto the rice cakes. Sadly, their parking situation is horrible and it took me over 20 minutes to find any parking. It is quite frustrating and unfortunately is not worth the time for me especially when I call ahead to place an order with the intention to save myself time during work hours. Half of the spots are reserved for a separate business building the plaza and the back is only a few spots mainly taken by the gym people. Sucks because if they had a better location in HB i would come more often...
Good portions Moderate prices Service was prompt and gave good recommendations Tender battered chicken tenders were really good Hefty kimbap rolls Perfect for sharing different dishes They have different sauces; it's nice to try a variety.
I've eaten my way through more Korean fried chicken spots than I can count, but Chan Chan will always reign supreme to me. Hardcore loyalty! I've always eaten at the Irvine location but definitely wanted to give HB's location a try. Chan Chan & Sweet Garlic Wings (5/5) If there's anything about these wings they have the perfect crunch to the skin. So crispy and decadent. .That audible crunch that makes the whole table go wild. The meat underneath stays impossibly juicy. The Chan Chan sauce hits that perfect balance of sweet and spicy. A little heat that creeps up gently, layered with savory depth and a subtle sweetness that lingers. But the Sweet Garlic? That one owns my heart. It's glossy, garlicky, slightly sticky, and dangerously addictive. Chan Chan Kimbap (4.5/5) First of all, the portion size is extremely generous. All the flavor profiles are wrapped delicately and work harmoniously with each other. Each bite feels balanced; slightly sweet, slightly savory, fresh, and clean. It's not heavy or greasy; it's comforting in a composed. This one delivers on that classic flavor profile while still feeling hearty. Tteokbokki (4/5) Their tteokbokki leans into that addictive sweet-savory zone with just enough spice to wake up your taste buds without overwhelming them. The rice cakes are soft and chewy -- that signature elasticity that makes tteokbokki so satisfying. When the sauce coats the rice cakes, it creates this glossy, clingy texture. And adding ramen noodles? Elite decision. The noodles soak up the sauce and add another layer of texture, making every bite more dynamic. The space itself is small and cozy. Nothing flashy, but it feels intimate and easy. It's the kind of place you come to focus on the food and your friends. The servers were friendly and welcoming. I do wish they checked in on us a little more since we had to flag someone down a few times for water refills, but it didn't take away from the overall experience. And once they secure their alcohol license? Oh, it's over. This place is going to be even more packed. If you're in Huntington Beach and serious about Korean fried chicken, this is the one. Some places are trendy. Some places are good. And then some places just consistently hit. And Chan Chan hits every time.
Chan Chan is the spot when I'm craving ultimate Korean food that doesn't involve soups, so I'm talking about kimbap, kimchi fried rice and crunchy korean fried chicken. What I like about this spot is that they have generous portions. Their korean fried chicken is super crunchy as they used a thicker batter! When fried correctly, it gives that ultimate crunch. I liked that they offer the sauces on the side, so you can control how much sauce you want with each bite. My favorite is definitely the garlic and the chan chan sauce. Other dishes I like are the chan chan kimbap and the kimchi fried rice. The kimbap tastes fresh and the portions for the kimchi fried rice are quite generous! Parking can be a struggle during peak lunch or dinner times. We came here a second time on a Sunday around 2pm, and there were plenty of spots!
I went back and try out the kimchi rice and the Kimbap and it was good! Portions were HUGE and flavors were great yhis time!
Chan Chan Huntington Beach is tucked in the center between the big bank and the church. The service is always fast and friendly, with a casual ambiance. Their Korean fried chicken is made with delicious batter, and the tenders are always juicy with generous portions. Ask for an extra dipping sauce, it's got a kick! My favorite dish here is the Spicy Seafood Fish Cake Soup. Savory broth, many varieties of fish cake and seafood, and I add ramen noodles which pair nicely with the delicious broth. Dine in or to go, it's always a treat that hits the spot. Enjoy!
Chan chan has a fresh and modern environment. The employees are helpful and kind. The chicken here is super crunchy. There an option for sauce on the side, recommend. Food came out quickly. Server checked on us frequently. Would come back!
I heard about Chan Chan Irvine, but since Huntington Beach is closer, decided to try HB location instead. We got there on Sat around 2pm and the restaurant was empty. I'm always a little apprehensive when the restaurant is empty, but we figured we would still try it out. For the most part, food was better than expected, like the kimbap. Kimbap here is excellent, with the right kind of rice (slightly sticky) and plenty of sesame oil. I love the ratio of veggies/meat to rice, since I don't like too much rice. We had the half and half of beef and spicy oden, and I'd def recommend beef over spicy oden. The tokbokki was a bit of a letdown, because I really wanted the retro style, which is the one they cook tableside (juksuk tokbokki). I haven't had that style since I left Korea, so I was excited but found out they only have it in Irvine location, bummer! I also wanted a glass of beer, but they don't have a liquor license yet, double bummer. But, service was nice, the ladies that work there were very attentive and efficient. We also ordered the chicken with green onions, and the chicken was fried perfectly. Their pickled radish was very good too, I'm kinda picky about my pickled radish that you get with Korean fried chicken, and theirs is really good. Overall, I'd come back once they have their liquor license and they start doing the tableside tokbokki (retro tokbokki). Kimbap alone is worth it. Plenty of parking in the mall.
We ordered the chicken (upgraded to large with sweet garlic and Chan Chan sauce) + tteokbokki (spicy/original) + kimbap (tuna) combo and a kimchi fried rice with spam. We tried to order beer as it was on the menu, but apparently they don't serve alcohol at this location and the menu they use is Irvine's menu. We heard another group come in after us try to order alcohol too and were told they don't serve it. Would probably be good to update the menus or at least include a sign on it that they don't serve alcohol? The fried chicken came plain and were soo crispy! I'm glad the sauces came on the side because we were not a huge fan of them. The sweet garlic somehow tasted like chocolate. Both were pretty thick and sweet. The tteokbokki and kimchi fried rice were so flavorful and kimbap was solid too. The portions were bigger than we expected! read more

Every time I've been here I've had great service and delicious meals. Prices are a little high but justified when you get your plate (it's a lot of food). Chen Chen has recently added a lunch special that is well worth it - which is part of the reason I keep coming back. Definitely recommend but come hungry. read more

I've heard so many good things about Chan Chan and finally got to try it out. We came on a Friday evening for dinner and there was no wait, which I'm surprised about because the food was really good. The wings were so crispy, juicy, and flavorful. The wings are huge and I would recommend 8pc for 2 people, if you plan on ordering other items on the menu. I like that they put the sauce on the side to dip, so the wings stay crispy. Our favorite sauce was the sweet garlic, it's a must get. The Kimbap was really good too, definitely a must get. They have seating indoors and have a separate kiosk for takeout orders. ig: @cravingswithcat read more

Delicious, delicious. I had an amazing lunch. I tried the seafood soup (9.0/10) and the grill beef kimbap (9.1/10). Both were delicious. The amount of soup I got was a lot that it took me an hour to eat my food. I highly recommend it. read more
Chan Chan, where did you come from? I swear, this place popped up out of nowhere and blew my mind. My daughter asked for Korean fried chicken, so I took to Yelp and prayed for a miracle. Yelp, you came thru!!!! Walked in expecting a fast food vibe because it looked like it would be a fast food place but the server treated us like we were fine dining. We ordered the Combo 3 and damn, those wings were huge--heavily battered but somehow light and crispy. I know, it's an oxymoron, but they pulled it off. The spicy soy sauce was a game changer, and my daughter was all about that Chan Chan sauce. But let's talk about the rice cakes--I'll be dreaming about that sauce for the rest of my life. The beef kimbap? Solid. Food was on point, but honestly, the sauces stole the show. I knew it was legit when my daughter whispered, "this is so good," which is basically a miracle since she doesn't say that about any place-- except for my cooking (she's my fave kid). Only downside? No alcohol. Bruh, come on. Get it together. Other than that, Chan Chan is a solid 5/5. Catch us here regularly read more
This place is LEGIT!!! I was skeptical about this place but my hubby insisted we come here since it was nearby the resort we were staying at. The food here is authentic!! MUST order the fried chicken if you're dining here. The sweet garlic is delicious! The seafood fish cake is also a must try I highly recommend! Portion is huge. A good mix of fish cakes, seafood and fresh scallions and veggies. Definitely and authentic cuisine! read more

Was craving korean fried chicken and stopped by this spot since it was close by. We were pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes and the delicious dishes!! We ordered two KFC (16pc) because we wanted two flavors. Honestly we over ordered and realized later that we could choose two flavors with one order (I think). The sweet garlic wings were my favorite. The wings are so crispy and HUGE, i loved every bite! I enjoyed that it didn't taste TOO fried. We also got the grilled beef kimbap and it was MASSIVE. The crispy and spicy fries were such a shock. They were super saucy but still very crispy, the flavor was very good! The servers were very attentive and took good care of us. The restaurant itself is kind of small but we got seated right away. read more
I tried the combination kimbap (spam and beef) and it was tasty! I also got the spicy beef soup with noodle and thought it was just okay. A lot of vegetables and meat. Unfortunately, the spices made my stomach hurt a bit. The portion sizes are good here for sharing though and is filling! Service was also good and my order came out quick despite just placing the phone order. The interior is clean, spacious although it is a small restaurant, and is welcoming. read more

We were coming back into town after a long road trip and wanted to eat at the restaurant. We didn't even stop to fill the car back up with gas like we normally do, but made a beeline for the restaurant arriving at about 8:30 PM on a Saturday night. There was a couple on a date night having their dinner. We were shown to our table and were able to order quickly. Food made its way out of the kitchen to our table fast. While we were eating our dinner of Chan Chan Kimbap, large Chan Chan Tender, Kimchi and Spam Fried Rice, and Cream Pasta, another couple came in to take out but changed their minds and decided to eat there. Our dinner eaten with plenty of food left for another meal, we could continue home and relax. read more
Chan Chan Huntington Beach. 헌팅톤 비치에 새로 오픈한 Chan Chan 한국 레스토랑을 가다. Surf City HB엔 한국 가게, 레스토랑이 드물다. HMart가 들어온다고 포스타 붙었지만 아직 오픈하지 않았다. 찬찬 레스토랑은 어바인에 이어 두번째로 비치 불르바드에 규카쿠 일식집 옆 비지니스 빌딩가에 자리잡은 깨끗하고 작은 식당이다. 영 한국 청년이 친절하게 서브한다. 어떤 집일가? 메뉴를 폰으로 찍어보니 해물 짬뽕류, 어묵과 김밥, 치큰 뎀부라.. 일식과 중식이 뒤섞인듯 모던 한식집이라 결론내며 Seafood spicy noodles/짬뽕 두 그릇, 어묵 누들과 김밥과 치큰 뎀부라를 주문. 반찬으로 무짠지, 흰무설탕초조림, 마요캐배지와 호배추김치무침을 까만 종지에 이쁘게 내오다. 결론: 일식과 한식의 중간레벨의 짬뽕은 해물이 가득한 기름기없는 국물은 그야말로 일식 한식 중간에 스파게티 누들로 맛있었다. 맵고 짙은 한식 양념이 덜 댕길때나 달큰 일식도 싫증 날때에 꼭 맞는 스타일이다. 백인이 주 인구인 헌팅톤 비치에서 디센트한 에이시안 음식 찾는 비치 피플들에게 어필 할듯해 보였다. read more
Solid spot for Korean comfort food with a modern twist. We came hungry and left.. very full. Like, borderline food coma full. Everything we ordered was tasty, especially the sweet garlic chicken and rose pasta, but the meal overall was a little heavier than expected. Definitely one of those places where the sauces and richness start to stack up. Probably better for sharing with a group rather than going full-send as a party of two. Service was friendly, portions are generous, and the space is clean (though kind of no-frills). Would come back, but maybe pace myself next time. Or at least bring reinforcements. read more
