    Churro, Taro, and Tiramisu donut
    Mandi S.

    Such a cute, bright and inviting spot! The young woman working was very helpful and friendly. I love Mochi and was excited to try a Korean mochi donut. I ordered the Tiramisu, churro and the taro flavors. The more you order, the more you save. The three pack was $9 so I think the prices are fairly reasonable. The churro was my favorite, my son loved this one too! It was lighter and less dense than the other flavors I tried. I would say I like the taro and tiramisu equally, though I didn't get much of a tiramisu flavor from this donut, it was still yummy. Definitely worth a visit if you find yourself in Hoboken!

    Chicken factory!? They really should change their name now as they offer more than just chicken! Super cute, small place that its name doesn't give it enough justice! I can lookinn for mochi donuts in the area and honestly based on their name I wasn't sure if I should even try going in but google and yelp showed me the donuts this place has so I figured why not!? Let's try! And behold! Beautiful case of freshly made donuts! The lady was even still decorating some to put out. We decided to try out more items from the menu upon arriving. Mochi donuts (4/5)--delicious! We loved the salted caramel and black sesame the most. Funnel cake definitely tasted like a funnel cake and the strawberry cheesecake as well had great flavor. Mozzarella Potato crusted Korean hot dog (4/5) loved the sprinkle of sugar! Lunch special with chicken tender pieces (3/5)--I was expecting more rice and coleslaw but overall it was a decent portion but for anyone else who eats a lot this wouldn't be enough food for them. I loved the sweet spicy sauce! The service and food were great that I went again the next day to try some more things: Ramen Korean hot dog 1/2 beef sausage 1/2 mozzarella cheese (2/5) had too much sugar this time around, mozzarella was barely there, and the ramen outside (although tasty) kind of overwhelmed this Korean hot dog all together. Bibimbap (Chicken) 3/5-I loved the amount of vegetables in it and the portion size that came with rice on the side, the chicken was crispy but felt like I was eating more of the breading than the actual chicken so that was a bummer but the rice was cooked nicely. Rose milk tea was delicious! As well as the matcha!

    I can't believe this place is called Chicken Factory, becuase they have the most incredible mochi donuts! This was my first time ever trying a mochi donut, and I was impressed. I got three flavors to go: passion fruit, strawberry, and matcha. The donuts themselves were light and fluffy. If you're craving a desert that's not too sweet, these are going to be a perfect fit. My favorite was the passion fruit, followed by the strawberry. I tend to love matcha flavored things but I could barely taste the matcha in the mochi donut. Next time, I would skip the match altogether. They have their own delivery system, which also makes ordering from here super convinient. I recommend that you give it a try!

    Ordered half spicy and half soy sauce chicken wings and thighs. The spicy one was much more delicious than the soy sauce. The portions were big and substantial. The skin was crispy and tasty. But I believe I had better ones at Mad for Chicken in NY...

    As a heads up, the restaurant is being renamed to Mochi Tori but that is pending. They said they used to sell primarily Korean Fried Chicken but now are expanding to also have Mochi Doughnuts, Mochi ice cream, Korean Corn Dog, and keeping the Korean Fried Chicken. Food (4/5): Ordered the milk and cookies mochi doughnut which was delicious. The doughnut had a good texture and was a good amount of sweetness. The Korean Corn Dog took a while to come out and was pretty good but they had limited sauce options, it's smaller, and the cheese wasn't as melty. Service (4/5): Friendly and helpful service. We were able to get the mochi doughnut immediately as expected but the Korean Corn Dog took a while at almost 10 minutes. Ambiance (4/5): Cute store with a nice wall of flowers and vividly decorated. I liked the display of mochi donuts when you walk in. It's a bit small with limited indoor and outdoor seating.

    delicious food! and the woman working is so sweet. this place really deserves more recognition!! i got the half and half and full beef corndogs and both were a genuine 10/10. i eat korean corn dogs a lot and this place genuinely had great food. the corndogs were crispy, shockingly perfect texture. it wasn't doughy and wet inside (like a lot of other places) and the flavors of the sauces they had were great as well. my partner and I went "mmmmm" with each bite which is so rare when it comes to food. I've tried about 15 or more different korean corn dog places and this really is on the top. nice atmosphere as well. good experience and delicious food + good boba as well! i hope this place gets more customers soon because it's well deserved! and the food came out quick. I will definitely come back for more and recommend you trying it out!

    Cute Korean restaurant on the Washington street strip. I had the spicy fried chicken wings with white rice and Cole slaw. The chicken was spicy sweet and fresh and good. Next time I will try the unique hot dogs or the mochi donuts. The place is clean and the location is great on Washington street down the street from Steven's Institute

    Shafina I.

    This place has some of the lightest and most delicious Korean corndogs I have had. I usually can't have more than a couple bites of fried food because it can be heavy and greasy but the corndogs here are perfectly made and don't leave you with that guilty feeling. They also have a delicious assortment of mochi donuts!

    Editing this review to express my disappointment. Was my favorite korean wing restaurant but not anymore. Checked-in and received the free drink prompt. Before checking out, I showed the woman behind the register. She didnt want to honor it and claimed that they aren't even on Yelp (but yet here we are). She wasnt making much sense but finally agreed. We had a large order of wings, 3 korean hot dogs and purchased 2 drinks, one was compd. I was just really disappointed in her response. Wings were mediocre- I remember them being a lot better. The half cheese, half hot dog was really good. Also peeved by all the "don't" signs. "Don't touch the flower wall", "don't touch display", "don't lean on glass", "put sauces back". Feels very condescending.

    Half Soy Garlic and Sweet & Spicy
    Natalie V.

    Reviewing a takeout - My food came fairly quickly which I was grateful for! I got the boneless half soy garlic and half sweet & spicy. Both were nicely fried, really juicy, and just the amount of sauce. Very yummy, would definitely order from here again.

    Bibimbap Bulgoki
    Sharon S.

    This was my first time ordering from here. I normally go to Fort Lee or the city for Korean food. This is a great place to get your fast food Korean fix! But here's the thing-I would have come here sooner but your name does not indicate that it makes Korean food! I always thought this was a regular fried chicken place like the old Chicken Delight I bet if you changed your name you would get more customers. I had the bulgogi bipimbap which came on a huge bowl. I was impressed with the portion. The veggies and bulgogi were cold though. Probably because it cooled off during delivery. The bulgogi is ground up. I'll come back with my husband to try the wings. Thank you!

    sweet spicy Wings And Drumsticks
    Guadalupe A.

    The food was so good definitely recommend getting the sweet and spicy chicken, the small box is enough for one or two people. The mochi doughnut was soft and sweet. I only had to wait 15 minutes for my food. The area is small but they have three small tables for two. Overall great, only issue was the server was mostly on a personal phone call.

    Soy Garlic chicken and fries were delicious! I also ordered the mochi donuts I ordered 3 (Taro, Fruity Pepples and Strawberry cheesecake) omg soooo good!! You can tell from the photo they're delicious - Perfect mochi texture (chewy, bouncy) like if a donut married a marshmallow lol!

About 10 minutes before opening on a Saturday night there were some people waiting for the doors to open. Once we asked for a table, we were asked to step to the side so reservations could be checked in first. Luckily in a few minutes we were offered seats at the bar since they had full reservations that night. The bar was comfortable and the bartenders were great. I loved watching the cocktails being made and speaking of cocktails, they are excellent. The Bool included tequila, pomegranate and jalapeño; the other cocktail was a spritz of sorts and both were fabulous. The menu is Korean tapas, so we ordered a bunch of items to try. As each dish was served the server described the dish and even provided some instructions on the best way to eat it, if applicable. Tuna Tartare was quite good, the knife cuts were a bit inconsistent which was surprising given the level of everything, but the dish was still enjoyable; citrusy with crispy sunchoke chips. Oyster Mushroom Tacos were incredible. It didn't even feel like I was eating mushrooms. The tacos were so falvorful and balanced. If they ask you if you want to add a 4th taco to the dish, definitely say yes. Berkshire Kimchi Fried Rice served with a beautifully runny egg brought the spice and the dish was both elegant and homey at the same time. Just wonderful Birria Mandu served in a bone marrow consume was spectacular. Fried Chicken Wings, we opted for the sweet and spicy version served with kimchi daikon were sublime and addictive. They also provided a wet towel with the dish so you can clean up afterwards. Those 5 dishes were a good amount of food to feel satisfied, but we couldn't stop there and needed to try dessert. Do not pass up the Black Sesame Bread pudding, it was sublime. Served in a sizzling cast iron pan with candied almond slices and ice cream. It was so unique and really really delicious. The whole experience from the hostess to the servers to the food was A+ and I can't wait to go back.

    Hojokban does flavors incredibly well. We ordered the octopus tteokbokki, rose dakgalbi, and ramyun…read morefried rice - all were amazing! I've never had such tender octopus as we did in their tteokbokki - the flavor of the dish is unique with a Korean/Chinese fusion flavor. The rose dakgalbi is creamy and we loved the soft glass noodles. And you can't go wrong with ramyun and fried rice.

    Omg everything was delicious here. We actually came in when they had a special menu with crabs, and…read morewe got the soy-marinated ones! For this being the first time I'm trying raw-marinated crabs, it was actually pretty good. The only thing is that it was $50 for basically one crab split into four pieces Nonetheless, all of the dishes tasted super delicious. We got the hojok galbi, crispy chicken, octopus tteokbokki, and perilla oil noodles. Starting off with the galbi, omg.. it was so tender and flavorful. Definitely a must-try and favorite of the night. I love how they also included some kind of salad on the side. The octopus tteokbokki included some fried seaweed on top, which was a nice addition, but was a little bit too spicy for me (I have a low spice tolerance LOL), but would be perfect with some rice. The flavor of the honey chicken was amazing, and it was super crispy. However, I believe they did include some pumpkin seeds on top, which was an interesting addition. Service was amazing, and it had a pretty intimate atmosphere, which was in a dim setting. Amazing for a date night, or dinner with some friends!

    Experience was great. Service was great and attentive…read more I really liked how the chairs doubled as storage for our bags and jackets so that they would not absorb the smell of bbq. I went with my sister and my daughter. We ordered the beef combo for 2 and a seafood pancake. The portion was just right. The quality of the beef was pretty good and was cooked to perfection (I requested for medium-rare). My sister had her portion cooked to well done since she is currently pregnant and didnt want to risk having any problems (not everything ended up being well done though). I personally prefer the pancake from elsewhere but it was not bad. My picky daughter really liked it. The combo came with a steam egg and boy was that good. Our meal ended with a yummy ice cream for each of us. This meal however made a pretty big dent in my wallet. It was my fault for not checking the menu before heading in. I didnt want to walk any further with my toddler and my pregnant sister since it started raining outside.

    Good portion sizes for the 2-person shared BBQ lunch- be it Bulgolgi beef, stewed soup, or Banchan…read morewith 6 varieties of small dishes. Soup and Banchan both receive high marks for how good they taste. Also ordered a separate beef short rib lunch special, the rib was cooked to perfection and the sauce applied was very flavorful. Servers were friendly and mostly attentative, restaurant decors and cleanliness of interiors and bathrooms were quite good. Would come back again next time in the Herald Square area.
