Very good fried chicken here! The batter is crunchy and the sauces are great- especially the lemon pepper. The tenders were also great, and very big! I got the beef bibimbap bowl which was solid as well. With the egg on it was $17 and pretty filling. We came with a group of 6 and the nice waitress gave us an order of donuts and whipped cream for free, which was awesome. The service was slow and the space looked like it was going through renovation, so points off for that.

Rudy was our server tonight. A++ service. I came in with hungry toddlers and not only was he able to customize a shrimp bowl to be flavorful but not spicy he also got it to the table in way under 5 minutes. My kids loved it. They also devoured the waffle fries. I loved the wings and the kimchi slaw that came with it was unique and delicious with a deep gochugang flavor. The place is friendly, clean, and has a soda fountain from the 90s that I found super charming a la classic pizza hut. Got the fried dough to go and had an amazing fast and delicious dinner. Step aside Bonchon, this is my Korean wing fix now. I've got to try the tteokbokki next time!!!!

Just left the airport and was in need of something different....different is relative when you have two kids asking for lunch...needed a place with variety but also chicken and fries lol...noticed Chi Kin in the local area while doing a quick Yelp search...pulled up and parked and noticed the place was empty...it was still early afternoon on a weekday so I figured it was just dumb luck and not a sign. Establishment is indeed going through remodeling but the area to eat is clean with ample seating...tried a little bit of everything but the biggest compliment of all was hearing the entire family say that this place was wayyyyy better than anyone expected.....quick service, fresh food, and friendly service make a restaurant great...ample seating, clean restrooms, and easy parking are in deed a nice touch as well. Simply put....we waited maybe 10 minutes for our food....everything was great...strongly recommend the chips and queso...not sure why but those chips were straight

CHICKEN WAS SO GOOD PLZZZZZ GET IT! really just so super yummy! didn't take too long to come out either !! yay! the rice is good but i'd probably get the fries next time as it's just plain white rice so not much flavor besides what comes off the chicken!

We've ordered takeout from here a few times and it's always good, but on the recommendation of a friend we decided to dine in last Friday night. They actually have table service that was friendly and quick. I already knew the chicken was outstanding, their sauces are all really delicious, but it was even better onsite. We ordered the family platter with fries and pickled cucumbers and another five wing platter with fries... Way too much food for the three of us, but we were happy to have leftovers for lunch the next day. This large space is conveniently located in the Mills 50 dining area. We were able to hop over to a favorite dessert spot after enjoying our chicken. We prefer the wings, but I know lots of folks prefer the tenders. The fries are fabulous!

This place has great korean fried chicken. The flavor selection is delicious. Both times I've visited, I've had the fried chicken wings--once with rice and once with bulgogi beef fries. I really like the bulgogi beef fries, but it's a little too salty for my pallette to eat all of it by myself. One order of ten wings and fries is good enough to share. I love the sweet gochujang sauce for my wings and the bulgogi fries (can get beef or chicken) are dressed with a delicious spicy mayo. The wait staff is nice but everyone seems like they are in a rush or impatient so that is what made me rate this location four stars. It won't deter me from visiting again, though. Additionally, I love all of the signage on the walls that have puns about chicken--very entertaining to read while you dine. Next door is Side Chik, a korean mexican spot that you can walk right into from Chi Kin. Maybe one day I'll try dining in there.

Okay. I love chicken wings! I go everywhere for them. These are SO good! Their lemon pepper dry rub is so good as well as the soy garlic (my two favorite seasonings). They are always crispy to perfection, even when delivered vs dining in. I've also gotten their seasoned corn and kimchi. Both also tasty!

Side of fries

We arrived around 12:30 on a Saturday and we're seated promptly. They do offer to go as well if you don't want to dine in. We were given the menu and then also their sister location which is side chick and features Mexican Asian fusion food. My husband got the chicken wings with the lemon pepper sauce on the side. They have a lot of different sauces that you can choose from. He just doesn't like to have the sauce put on the chicken wings until he knows if he likes it or not. He really enjoyed the crunch of the wings and said that they were very good. The lemon pepper sauce Has Yuzu in it and was very light. You really didn't get a lemon pepper type flavoring. I ordered the original Sammi with fries and a drink. Definitely makes more sense to do a combo. The chicken sandwich is really nothing more than a couple of chicken tenders put on bread. Had I known that I wouldn't of ordered the sandwich I just would've gone with tenders. Tenders are really big have great crunch to them and are very juicy. French fries were delicious. The only thing I would've done differently with them was more seasoning. I had several fries where it was very evident the fries weren't tossed in the seasoning. It was just put on after they came out of the fryer. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience here and would definitely come back for some chicken wings

If you're craving exceptional Korean fried chicken in Orlando Chi-Kin is a must-visit. Their double-frying technique ensures each piece boasts an irresistible crispy exterior, while the inside remains tender and juicy. They have the best sauces from the sweet heat of Hot Gochujang to the tangy zest of Yuzu Lemon Pepper!! Service is prompt and friendly and we had a pleasant dining experience. They have locations in the Mills/50 district and Windermere. Their commitment to quality and innovation makes them a standout in Orlando's food scene! This is a must try!

Side view/awesome mural on the building

I've been to Chi-Kin twice now and it's been a great experience both times! As chicken is my go-to protein (I can basically live off of chicken fingers), I "flocked" at the chance to try a place seemingly devoted to my favorite meat. Chi-Kin is a quaint (read "smallish") restaurant in the Mills 50 district. Parking can be challenging (especially those of us who tools driving tests in Florida where parallel parking isn't required), but I've found a spot both times I went. Chi-Kin has a great chicken mural on the side of the building that you can't miss. This is just the start of the cute and quirky chicken decor. Once inside, patrons are greeted and welcomed to seat themselves. Seating is table seating (wooden tables with red metal chairs) and there also seems to be the possibility of outdoor seating. The employees are knowledgeable about the menu and ingredients so feel free to ask (as I did) if you have any questions. Both times I went, I chose the 3 piece tenders combo (I chose the Sweet Soy as my sauce option both times). The first time I went, I had the fries (double fried and oh so good) and the second time, I opted for fried rice and upgraded to egg fried rice (equally oh so good). The tenders are huge and ...well, tender. Truly some of the best I've had. The first time I came here, I came with a friend who ordered the wings, she loved them as did my husband when I brought him home his own order of wings. The second time I ate at Chi-Kin, I brought my husband. He tried the bulgogi carne asada quesadilla. When I asked him how he liked it, he paused and said, "It's actually a lot better than I thought it would be." After we left, he said that it was the best quesadilla he'd ever had! So, I'll definitely be returning to Chi-Kin in the near future!

Bulgogi Fries
Berlyn D.

4 stars for the wings only.. the sauce was Thai Chili & Spicy Mayo but we feel like it's only Thai Chili because 20 wings taste the same. But it was good. We also got Bulgogi fries, unfortunately we didn't enjoy because it doesn't taste like bulgogi, there's no flavor on the beef and the only good part is he dries they're crispy. I hope they fix the beef. Our server was nice and he checks up on us multiple times. I love we get to sit anywhere. The place is big and multiple seatings so it's good for big group. It's clean.

Bulgogi Fries and Street Corn
Melissa N.

Always enjoy this spot for wings and things. Decor is super cute! Always enjoy the food when we come in. Street corn is yum! Bulgogi nachos are yum! It's chicken. Can't really go wrong. The staff is always so friendly and nice. Even make their own suggestions when you're not sure what you're currently in the mood for. The place is always clean too.

Victoria S.

We came in with 30 minutes to spare and kept our ordering quick so we could leave before the workers closed up. We each got the 5 piece wing basket combo with fries and wow, the twice fried chicken was SO good. The perfect amount of crispy, the flavor of the sauce was amazing. We appreciated the dining area was clean and the worker served us very quickly. Only challenge I could see for coming earlier in the day is parking. We will definitely be coming back!

Can customers dine in?

Yes they do

Does this restaurant have a designated parking lot or is it street parking?

Street but there's always a spot. People come pick up and leave constantly.

Are there gluten free items? Or the ability to modify to be gluten free?

Hi Mary, we can modify the chicken without any gluten in the batter but it’s still cooked in the same oil as the gluten products.

We went in to order since I had a few questions, and the staff couldn't have been nicer, even with how busy it was. There's no indoor seating, but there are a few tables outside if you want to hang out while you wait or eat there. (We ordered then walked over to Runabout Brewing for a beer while we waited) We went all in with the family deal: 50 wings, 2 fries, and 4 drinks. The wings were big, crispy, and cooked just right. We tried a mix of flavors: KB's Secret Rub (dry rub), That Honey Garlic, That Lemon Pepper, KB's Sweet Heat, and That Fiery Garlic Parm. The standout favorite for our group was That Honey Garlic, while the Lemon Pepper didn't quite hit the same for our group. The other three flavors were also very delicious! The fries were just as tasty.. crinkle cut and crispy. We got both the plain and the "secret rub" fries, and honestly, no complaints on either (the secret rub has a slightly sweet, BBQ-style flavor). The homemade dipping sauces were a nice bonus too. The ranch leans heavy on dill (in a good way) and the blue cheese has the perfect tang. Overall, I'm a big fan. I'll definitely be back and recommending it to anyone craving solid wings! (another thing to note: it's a cashless restaurant)

There were no customers when we arrived, so I was skeptical. But the staff assured me we were at the right place for wings. They sold me on their sauces being authentic and house made. So I tried. We ordered Honey Garlic, Lemon Pepper, and Garlic Parmesan. Also ordered a couple cheeseburgers. Everything came out fresh and hot to order. Place could've been a five star review but the sauce on the Honey Garlic (preponderance of the order) was not what I was accustomed to. Not enough honey and it seemed to buttery - almost like it would be better on crabs. Great blue cheese dip But loved the staff and service. Would return and get a dry wing.

We arrived around 5pm and we were able to pick where we sat. We sat at one of the booths and Brian was our oh so awesome server. He came over with a smile and a run down of what's good. We started with cocktails, we both ordered The Elderberry, it was perfect & so refreshing. For our entrees, we had both of the burgers on the HH menu, the Small Batch Whiskey and the Small Batch Lassahn. We also ordered The Salmon burger. For sides we had the regular fries and the Parmesan truffle fries. Everything was soooooo good. The beef burgers were seasoned so perfectly, and cooked medium as we requested. Every bite made my taste buds dance. The truffle fries were so good, I almost ordered more. The garlic aioli is a must for dipping your fries in. The Whiskey has lots of seating, tables, booths and bar seating. There's lots of pictures on the walls and tvs. It's a vibe for sure. I'm so glad we had lunch at The Whiskey and will definitely go back the next time we are in Orlando. Thanks Brian for making our experience awesome!

The Black N' Bleu burger with sweet potato fries is absolutely incredible and easily one of the best burgers I've had in a long time. Cooked perfectly, packed with flavor, and the sweet potato fries are the perfect addition. I've also tried the War Pig burger and oh my... SO good. Honestly, everything I've tried so far has been amazing. The food, drinks, atmosphere, and consistency keep me coming back, and I already know this is going to stay in my regular dinner rotation. Can't wait to come back again!

Their slow cooked rotisserie chicken is SOOO GOOD!!! I've heard great things about their chicken fingers, but I keep going back for the rotisserie. Maybe one of these days I'll give 'em a try. My go to sides are mashed potatoes, black beans, and broccoli. Again, I want to try the rest, but I keep going back to what's familiar to me. Oh! The lemonade! So they have this spicy jalapeno lemonade, that I've found when mixed with their unsweetened tea is my new favorite drink. They also have beer and wine, and rumor has it, you can get your beer and wine discounted on rainy days! I'd honestly give this place six stars if that were an option. Yee Haw!

The restaurant was somewhat busy but the team was working hard and very nice despite how busy they were. We purchased the family dinner for 4, which included chicken tenders, choice of rolls or chips and salsa, 3 sides, and a dessert. This also included 4 different dipping sauces. We waited quite a long time but everything was packaged correctly and conveniently. You get quite a lot of chicken but it's served in a large tray that can be stored in the fridge if you have leftovers. It definitely feeds 4 adults so if you are a family of 4 with young kids, this could easily feed you twice. Our side choices were green beans, white cheddar Mac n cheese, and seasoned french fries. The dessert choice was peach cobbler. This was a good meal - nothing fancy but the food tasted great. I would opt for the dinner in the future because of what a good deal it is.
