    The place
    Bert L.

    Overall it was good. Nothing amazing about fried chicken wings. Good crunch. Extra for sauces. Nondescript local that seems to do a healthy delivery business. Korean vibe and front end with Latinos doing the cooking. Slaw and radishes were the best part about the whole experience IMO.

    Found this hidden gem in the sea of delicious Korean cuisine in Centreville. This feels like a mom and pop shop that serves up delicious fried chicken and then sum. Unfortunately, they were out of alot of menu items when we visited (which could be a good sign that the food is actually really good and in demand) so this review is for the items that we were able to try which was the classic fried chicken wings and onion rings. Both were freshly prepared and fried perfectly. The original fried chicken breading was seasoned well and was steaming when it was served to us. The onion rings came in a generous portion so definitely plan to share. We were curious about the chicken gizzards but they were out so we will have to make another trip to try them. The service was really great and fast! The staff was very friendly and welcoming which made the experience that much better. It's worth checking out if you are looking for quality fried chicken.

    Craving chicken to eat while watching football, we placed an order for delivery. I like spicy food and ordered the spicy chicken and we also got an order of their plain chicken. We had two sides of fries and mozzarella sticks. Oh my gosh when I read that the spicy chicken was really spicy, I definitely thought it might be an understatement. I was wrong lol. What to do when you love spicy and can't eat extremely spicy? Drink a glass of milk LOL. I am not kidding, the spicy was extremely spicy. Very good though. The plain chicken was also great. Very crispy which I loved. Fries were basically like frozen fries from the grocery store. I was impressed with the mozzarella sticks though. Would definitely order again.

    Cheogajip (chug-a-chick(en) in my etymology style. While Korean fried chicken is found abundantly amongst the Centreville scene, this particular location was recommended by my coworker. Plus a Korean friend of mine at a gathering raved about this spot; who doesn't like fried chicken!? I did an order of the whole chicken; comes in 19-20 pieces which is enough to feed a large group. Chicken is moist and has a nice golden fried texture to it. Plus you can use the sauce on the side for dipping. It'll definitely make you a popular one at parties and gatherings if you do this! It's best to call ahead for your order as it takes about 15-20 minute wait for them to prepare your order. The inside has dining tables and TVs playing Korean soap operas which can be intriguing. Although it's hard to read the subtitles, the acting and dramatics can be captivating in holding your attention while you wait for your food and sip your beer. That just makes the anticipating more exciting as I jumped up with excitement when they called my number and was satisfied by the wonderful smell from the bag! So much better than Bon Chon, get yourself some goodness; it's the only way!

    We got half spicy & half supreme, squid ring, and ddukboki. The sauce is sweet and thick and the spicy chicken was actually pretty spicy.

    I had a pleasant experience. The older asian woman at the counter was able to answer my question about portion sizes. The Half size is 8 pieces and whole is 16 pieces. You can order half & half for seasoning. I ordered a whole size of Sweet and Mild chicken to go with a side of fries. for $5 the fries were a bit pricey but i found them delicious. It was also really satisfying to see she had overfilled my to-go container for fries, stuffing them full, requiring a rubber band to secure it closed. I found the chicken to be tender and delicious, almost falling off the bone. I normally find Bonchon mediocre but now it really wouldn't stand a chance in comparison. My mother found the sweet sauce on the chicken too sweet, but I thought it was very tasty. I think she's more sensitive to sweet food, however, whereas I am not. Next time I will get half & half flavors if I plan on sharing with my parents. Overall I enjoyed my experience and I will be back for sure :)

    Hot and Spicy/Mild and Sweet

    Mild and Sweet- YUM! Hot and Spicy- Fire coming out of my ears...Still ate every last bit of it. The chicken has a good portion of meat on it. The sauce is really sticky and yummy. I agree with Drew J, I wish that they offered more side options (ie. rice). I really wanted to take all that saucy goodness and eat it with some rice. Very relaxed atmosphere. Friendly Service. I'm glad to have stumbled upon this place.

The menu was extensive, filled with lots of homey options that I don't usually see in other restaurants. After ordering, we were served six different banchans, all of which were incredibly homey -- light and not too savory. My favorites were the acorn jelly (which was mixed with salted seaweed and sesame seeds) and the white kimchi. Honestly, all six were really solid. AL TANG - 19.99 Super savory with lots of "sea sweetness" and umami, this stew was rich and piping hot upon arrival. I've never had al tang before, but have heard great things about it. Unfortunately, I didn't love the texture of fish roe (kind of reminded me of the texture of cooked chicken lungs). By the end of the stew, I thought it was too salty, so I didn't end up finishing it. Overall, I'm glad I tried it, but I probably won't get it again. My friend got the mackerel which he loved. I'll look forward to other items on the menu next time.

It's even separated into convenient little bowls for customization, but without the inconvenience of basically cooking your own meals. Honestly amazing.
