We recently ordered pick up here on our way back to Chicago. Our order was ready faster than we anticipated. The chicken was also still crispy and warm after our 30 min ride. We ordered the k-golden, soy garlic and the sweet chili chicken. We also ordered the bulgogi fried rice and the japchae. Everything was great. I would only say that the sweet chili chicken can be a tad bit spicier. The next time we will look at eating in person. read more

No frills, self service restaurant with ample seating available and a large parking lot. Extensive menu, but ultimately ordered the soy garlic chicken wings, crispy chicken alfredo pasta, and the sweet potato fries. The chicken wings and sweet potato fries came out crispy. Pasta was creamy and flavorful. Overall great place to hang out with a group of friends for good food and if you want to drink! read more

Thanks to Yelp for a great suggestion. Chibab Chicken is near the end of a strip mall and their food is absolutely delicious. If you never have had Korean fried chicken, and think "what's the big deal? aint it like KFC?" Umm, no. Not at all bro. Korean fried chicken is on a whole 'nother level. Double-crispy/breaded, Korean fried chicken is great. We ordered several plates: K-Golden Fried chicken -- the OG. Plain, no sauce, but do you really need any? The breading had its own seasoning, that made the chicken tasty as-is. There was definitely a spicy kick to this dish. Fish cake soup -- nothing like something warm on a cold Chicago winter. This soup had Fish cakes, Garlic, Onion, Pepper. Green Onion, Korean Radish, Soy sauce and some Tteokbokki which is hot and spicy. All swimming in aananchovy stock. It was paired well with the bibimbap that we ordered too. If you are not familiar with bibimbap, it consists of white rice with vegetables, beef (Bulgogi), fried egg and special house Gochujang sauce Sweet chili chicken -- for this one we went with the boneless option, as I was lazy. The sweet chili chicken was great. Perfect tang, and not that spicy. If anything, the K-Golden fried chicken was spicier. The dining area was modern, chic, and clean. Order at the front, pay, and grab a seat. They will bring out your order promptly. Overall, the dining experience was great.... service, food, and atmosphere. BATHROOM REVIEW: There were two bathrooms. One for men, other for women. The mens was pretty clean. It had a urinal and toilet. Urinal for me today. Clean and tidy, the bathroom was top-notch. Sit or squat? Sit! read more

This restaurant replaced the old restaurant that used to be My My Chicken or something like that. It's located next to Woori Village. Enormous parking lot. There were plenty of tables to eat at. You walk in, find a table, and then you order at the register. They have more selections at the counter or you can look on their website. Their menu is very extensive. The small bowls, silverware, napkins, etc are all self-serve. It's a mom and pop shop, I believe the husband is in the kitchen cooking, and the wife handles the front. The wife was very pleasant and helpful. We got a good amount of items for two people. The wings had a lot of meat on them, so I took pictures to support my review. Prices were standard. Overall, it's a 4.5 for me but since they're a newly opened mom and pop shop, I'll round it to 5. -fried thin crust rice - 3 - these tasted more like snacks so I think $6 might be too much. My gf wanted this so I didn't look up the pictures beforehand. -cheese balls - 5 piece - 5/5 - I love that cheese pull when you bite into it. The cheese balls were hot and had a soft texture. It's kind of like a Korean version of mozzarella sticks, except they're round and have a powdered cheese exterior. -k-golden fried chicken wings - 8 pieces - 5/5 - crispy skin, succulent meat, adequate amount of meat on the flats and drums. -sweet chili chicken wings - 8 pieces - 5/5 - not spicy, very mild kick. Sufficient amount of meat and juicy on the inside. read more

This is another option for fans of Korean fried chicken, located off Milwaukee Avenue and Golf. There is plenty of parking and they opened a few months ago, and the restaurant is bright and clean with large screens playing K-pop videos and multicolor hexagon LED lights. I ordered the Korean golden chicken, which comes with a side of pickled radish. They offered me a few sauces, I selected soy garlic and spicy honey lemon. Sauces cost additional but they offered to me free because it was my first visit. I also ordered fries. As I sat waiting for my order, I was watching a slide show of the other appetizing menu options glide by. The chicken arrived hot and golden. The outer shell was crunchy and crispy and not at all greasy. I dipped in the sauces -- I enjoyed the honey lemon. The crinkle French fries were amazingly light and crispy -- although a little heavy handed on the salt-- and a very generous portion. I enjoyed the chicken which had that amazing crunch. I usually order plain and I will have to try another flavor in a future visit. Service was very friendly and hospitable.This restaurant has a fun and lively setting -- I was the only customer one weekday afternoon -- so bring your appetite and some friends. 4.5 stars -- I deducted 1/2 star because the fries were over salted-- but I could easily see this as 5 stars on another occasion. read more

This weekend we got to check out @chibabchicken for the first time and are SOO happy we did! Chibab Chicken offers a variety of Korean dishes on their menu - our favorites being their Korean fried chicken, rose tteokbokki, cheese balls, and bulgogi kimchi fried rice! For fried chicken we tried two boneless 8-piece sets: honey lemon (MUST TRY!!) and the K-classic spicy chicken (not too spicy!). We would totally go back again - next time I want to try their soy garlic (galbi) chicken, K-corn dog, and budae jjigae The vibes inside are great (colorful!) and we received our food very quickly! There are also takeout containers, utensils (traditional and chopsticks) readily available for you to grab if needed as you finish up your meal. If you're ever in the Niles area, definitely give Chibab Chicken a try!! read more

I am so glad that Korean fried chicken is taking over the world. Sign me up to try every single wing flavor at this new place! I walked in out of the cold and warmed up immediately, a good sign. I'd walked past Mymy before (the name of the place at this location before this one) and never tried it, if it had been this inviting maybe I would have. I love what they've done with this space. The neon lights, the bright color palettes, the Korean mascots, and every inch of the place is clean. I was greeted from the counter as I entered and asked if I would be dining in. I said yes and they asked me to sit anywhere I'd like. I grabbed a seat and they brought me a full menu and a water jug for my table. However when your ready to order they take your order at the counter. This place is walking the line between self service and full service, maybe it all depends on how busy they are but I can say I was very pleased with the service I received. They have a case of beverages to choose from as well, which includes a few alcoholic options. I was torn on which wings to get, lots of tasty sounding options here. Then I saw "honey mustard cheese" and there was no turning back. I've had a lot of Korean fried chicken but I've never seen this flavor combo before. I also went ahead and treated myself to their cheese balls. As I waited for my food I was brought some utensils. A bowl for collecting my wing bones and a pair of small tongs to grab them with to cut back on mess. A very nice upscale touch. My wings came out first and they looked perfect. I dug right in and, yep, they were perfect. I really love this flavor combination, why haven't I seen this everywhere? They don't over sauce their wings which I appreciate. They were cooked just right and the crunch in the batter never wavered. I did have a minor issue of getting more drums than flats which is a pet peeve of mine, simply because I prefer the flats but it does make sense to get an even number of both. Soon after my wings landed, out came my cheese balls... the picture is misleading, these things were massive! Giant fried dough filled with, I'm guessing mozzarella. Then coated with cheese powder. They were too hot to eat at first, watch out for that. These things are an amazing textural experience. It's crunchy, doughy, melty, cheesy, and chewy at the same time. They also seemed to have sugar coating which is where the flavor went south for me, I would skip that sugar and maybe add a little more seasoning. About halfway through my meal a woman (I'm thinking she's the owner) came out and asked me how I was enjoying my food, and would I like some complimentary pickled radish and jalapeños? Absolutely I would. I'm used to getting pickled radish at Korean fried chicken places, but the jalapeño is new and welcome. I'm guessing again but I think they were soaked in Soy Sauce? I loved that. So it looks like a clean up after yourself sort of situation, but the woman again came back out and told me not to bother, she'd take care of it. As I grabbed my coat and put on my hat she waived at me happily from behind the counter and said "be careful out there, it's slippery!" I was really blown away by the service honestly. Such hospitality, from the moment I walked in I was greeted by smiles with a friendly and helpful attitude. They seem so happy to have customers and for people to enjoy themselves, I'll be hoping they last much longer than that last place. A side note, but the bathroom was nice and clean which is always a plus. I'll be back to try more very soon. read more

Enjoyed the following: K-Golden Fried Chicken (wings) 16 pcs Soy Garlic (Galbi) Chicken (boneless) 16 pcs Both choices are incredible. Having a variety is always great. Depends on if you want your fried chicken coated in sauce. Note that the boneless chicken comes in very large generous pieces, so you do get a lot more meat compared to the wings. Both are delicious & maintain their crunch even as leftovers & eaten cold. Warms up great in the air fryer for 3 mins. The soy garlic is spicy & sweet, so it doesn't quite align with the description but is nevertheless delicious. Overall: Most definitely worth the calories & even delicious as a cold leftover or 3 mins in the air fryer... IF there are leftovers! read more

**3.5 Stars** Tried this place for the first time yesterday. We ordered online through Uber Eats since they have BOGO free offers on some menu items as well as some other slightly discounted menu items. We got the BOGO deals for the K-Golden Fried Chicken and the Gold Cheese Chicken as well as a Rose Tteokbokki (this one is not a BOGO deal but still $2 less than the menu price). My wife went to pick it up after work so I can't comment on service or restaurant space, but the order was ready on time. They cut some venting holes on the lids of the chicken takeout boxes so the chicken wouldn't get soggy during transit. The chicken itself is decently sized and pretty juicy. There was a good crunch to the chicken skin so their venting holes worked pretty well. The Gold Cheese Chicken tasted good, though maybe a little sweeter than others I've tried. The K-Golden Fried Chicken doesn't have any sauce but I still expected it to have some sort of flavor, though it didn't really. Good crunch, pretty juicy, but lacking flavor. We also got a Rose Tteokbokki except this didn't really have any rose flavor to it. It looked and tasted like regular tteokbokki, so it's hard to say if this is how it normally is, or if they just gave us regular tteokbokki on accident. There are still a few other menu items I want to try so I'm likely to come back and maybe even dine in next to get the full experience. This place is definitely worth a try, especially with the Uber Eats deals they have right now (don't know how long they'll be available though). They use multiple online ordering platforms but I didn't check to see if the others had their own deals as well. read more

Decided to check this place out with a friend after seeing an ad. They have unique flavors! Staff was friendly and welcoming and food arrived quickly.

Chibab Chicken - Honey Lemon Chicken and Soy Garlic Chicken (Galbi) - Korean Near Me - Niles, Illinois

I ordered this and I am very disappointed. Wings were cooked in old oil so it had a weird color and tasted bad. Not the color that they advertise nor close to it. The side is giving reuse of old products or leftovers from several days. I can't speak on the ambiance or the service as it was a delivery order. But the food was terrible for the price they are charging. read more

had such an amazing time today for mother's day! this is my 2nd visit here and love the fried chicken here.. i had to have my family try it! food: soy garlic chicken- so perfect. perfect crunch, perfect taste bigbowl tteokbokki+side ramen (rabokki): i wish the sauce was less watery but still tastes great! i love that the fried seaweed, mandu, and egg are included! fish cake soup udon: my kiddo loved this and i love the fish cakes. so comforting service: the service was awesome. it looks like everything is self serve with bowls: cups , utensils. and even takeout containers at the designated stations but the lady comes over and sets everything up anyway. for mother's day. they also offered free 6 piece fried chicken!! prices are so reasonable, food so good, service awesome... nothing but positive things to say about this place! can't wait to come back! read more

Wasn't sure what to expect but was absolutely blown away by Chibab Chicken. I ordered the K-Golden Fried Chicken, the Chili Shrimp and Chicken, and the Bulgogi fried rice. This was a delivery order, which arrived warm (and I appreciated the holes in the containers they made so it didn't arrive soggy. The spice on these are absolutely phenomenal and I wouldn't change a single thing about the wings. The fried rice was good, but the chicken here is next level so I'll for sure be back for more. Really enjoyed the sauces as well. I recommend the soy ginger for the K-Golden Fried chicken. 5 stars all the way read more

These wings are one of the best Korean style wings in the greater Chicagoland area. I got the traditional spicy wings and the cheese wings. The combo of switching from the spicy to the cheese was sensational. The wings were so good my friend even got them delivered to his place all the way in Streeterville a few weeks later. read more

After coming back due to the stellar hospitality and food, I unfortunately cannot attest quite the same at this point. The cheese balls, which had the perfect stretchy mochi exterior with a luscious cheesy center, were sadly the best part of my meal this time around. The wings were all pretty dry around the outside (which wasn't how they were before) and the ratio of drums to flats were WAY off!! And the flats I did get had very little meat on them. I am grateful the person who took care of my order offered an extra order of flats on him, which I accepted. I got 5 flats of their 'classic K' sauce, in which the glaze tasted exactly like cinnamon applesauce. I did not like it and would never order again! The kimchi fried rice was ok but have certainly had better. Flavor was nice but presence of kimchi was very minimal. The only things I remember being great from before were the pickled radishes and jalapeños. Overall, I cannot recommend anymore. read more

There's nothing imminently terrible about the chicken, and while I ordered takeout, the service was totally fine. That being said, whoever is in charge of brining the chicken and flavoring the batter should go back to culinary school. Or get a new tongue because there's nothing that stands out about this chicken. I had the classic/golden and the soy garlic, and while I hate overly salty chicken, this one felt like I was eating completely unbrined meat. The sauce was just ok, and the radish side may have been spoiled, as it tasted bitter. I had a lot of hope for this establishment as I've tried just about all the other K-Chicken places around without much nice to say about them. I sincerely hope this establishment works on its flavors as soon as possible. read more

We ordered the sweet chili boneless chicken. The chicken itself was super dry and not marinated. It was crispy but the inside part of the breading was way undercooked. The sauce however wasn't too bad, just wish it had a little more kick to it. After a couple pieces my husband and I had to throw it away. read more
