    Wooooooo when I say their chicken sandwich is good, it was GOOOOOOOD! It was so good that I had to get it the next day again. Back to back chicken sandwich for lunch lol idk what kind of sauce they put in there but it was what made the whole chicken sandwich diff from other spots. Also to add that their chicken was tender and crispiness was on point. I just loved it so much!!

    I stopped in here for a quick bite for dinner and was really impressed by this new chicken shop. It was pretty empty during the weekday so I ordered and waited at a table for my food, it took about 10-15 mins to come out and everything was delicious. The thigh burger was super juicy, fries were really crispy and I upgraded the drink in my meal to a mango slush drink (forgot what it was called exactly)... it was a little too sweet for my taste but still refreshing. The decor is also super cute, I was one of the few dining in but it looks like a lot of people have discovered this spot and order via takeout. I would definitely come back next time I'm in the area and would highly recommend!

    Took my teenage son to "This Chicken Is Back" on Northern Blvd in Queens. It is a chill spot with friendly vibes and tasty food. They serve Korean-style dishes with a bunch of different sauces to pair with their crispy chicken, shrimp, and sandwiches. My son loved the frozen lemonade, and I was really into the corn slaw, super refreshing. The place is chill and cozy, with a few tables and benches for seating, plus some screens and even a few games to keep you entertained while you wait or eat. The staff were super friendly, gave great recommendations, and kept the vibe relaxed. Definitely a fun little spot to grab a bite. Will try again with others. Meter parking outside.

    The chicken is perfectly fried and we thoroughly enjoyed the honey garlic sauce. They have a couple of family set options which are great so you can try a variety of the items on their menu. We came to celebrate our friends' birthdays and the owner(?) gave us a pitcher of beer as service. Our group left happy and full.

    Inexpensive combos and meals! The boneless chicken was very juicy and the fries were hot and crispy. I thought the honey soy sauce on the chicken was just a tad too sweet. It left me feeling a little thirsty afterwards. My husband liked the lighter version of the grilled chicken sandwich. It's a pretty casual establishment and the menu is very similar or identical to Mom's Touch a few years back. We had a big group and they were very accommodating!

    The crispiest, most delicious chicken!! My friend loves Chicken Is Back, so she brought me here and I was SO impressed that I already went back again on my own. If you like chicken (wings, bites, tenders, sandwich, etc.), trust me--this is THE spot! I don't think I've EVER had a better chicken sandwich than the one here, and my friend has said the same. For the wings, my favorites are the plain crispy wings and the honey soy crispy wings. Seriously amazing flavors! Aside from the delicious food, the service is also excellent and I love the vibe/ambiance! The lighting and art here are super creative and fun, definitely making it a great hangout spot for a group dinner. Highly recommend this spot and can't wait to keep coming back!

    I came here back when it was Mom's Touch. Definitely sad to see it go but they still serve up a mean fried chicken. Their boneless wings are very juicy and crispy. The honey flavor was a bit too sweet to my liking so I would've liked a little more savory sauce to balance it out. Overall, still a pretty enjoyable dish.

    Excellent sandwich and the chicken is juicy, tender but crispy all at the same time. Service is fast and friendly. Their fries are excellent. It's doubt fried. There is a lot of space to sit Can't wait to come back to try more items.

    I finally got around to trying, chicken is back. I ordered a bunch of things on the menu so I could taste a plethora of items. I really enjoyed everything that I ordered. The portion size were excellent and the taste was also excellent. Although I did not eat in the restaurant, there is lots of space to sit or lounge. The young man who took our order was helpful and got to work right away on our order. I will definitely be going back to try more food.

A really great deal for really crispy and flavorful 10/10!!!! Come by. The interior is spacious and really well lit. The staff is also really nice, patient, and helpful. They also have board games

    Came here last night for a quick bite to eat with my hubby and son. We got a premium thigh chicken sandwich. It was delicious. We added honey soy sauce for it. My son loved the french fries. The service was great. Friendly and fast. I loved the seating areas. There was a couch with a table then your regular table and chair set up. Will def be going back

    Premium Thigh Burger.

    My nephew and I chose to eat here because Dave's Hot Chicken was packed and we weren't going to stay out in the freezing cold. Glad it worked out that way! This has to be one of the best chicken sandwiches I've had. The Premium Thigh Burger was on point. It was so tender and tasted great. Probably the juiciest chicken sandwich I've ever had and I've had many. The burger buns could be better, but it did not take away from the sandwich. The chicken might look bland, but it was well-seasoned. Also, their Organic Lemonade, which was more like a slushy was great as well. Highly recommend this spot.

The effortless tranquility encourages you to slow down, enjoy the food, and get away from the everyday, hubbub. Their menu leans into fusion dishes with a nod to some of the classic home-style classics. Everything is presented with a refined, elevated touch. Here's what we ordered: ~ Tako Wasabi - 5/5 stars A fiery delight. This appetizer feartures chopped raw octopus marinated in wasabi. It has a lively zest from the wasabi and is topped with tobiko, which adds a pleasant contrast in texture. ~ Honey Makgeolli - 4/5 stars A traditional fermented Korean beverage that is light and pairs brilliantly with your meal. It is a cloudy alcholoic drink served in a metal teapot, and surprisingly, there is much more in that teapot than you would expect. It easily provides six to eight generous pours. The flavor is subtly sweet with a pleasant tang. ~ Temaki Set - 4/5 stars You can order a set of three by choosing from selections 1-17, or you can order a la carte at the listed prices. Some of the temaki stood out more than others. Our two sets included marinated salmon, bluefin tuna, spicy yellowtail, spicy bluefin, and two dynamite temaki. ~ Spicky Pork Ssam Set - 5/5 stars Truly another standout entree that even surpassed my beloved grilled BBQ bossam. You received a generous basket of assorte greens, including romaine, kale, perilla leaves, dandelion leaves, nappa cabbage, and more. It is well worth the price and makes for a fun, interactive dining experience with your family and friends. There is also various banchan offered and this time, they were beyond kind enough to offer refills. The last time we were here, we ordered just as much food and they stated they normally did not offer refills, which I thought was very odd. With its casual bougie aesthetics, this spot has quickly become one of my favorite eateries in Fort Lee-lee, It beautifully blends Korean, Japanese, and American flavors in a way that feels both comforting and elevated. Needless to say, we will be back!

The first thing I noticed was the plates. I actually looked them up hoping to buy them but they're custom made for the restaurant and feature their own logo. Sad!! The banchan was excellent, especially the kimchi. It was very fresh and was one of the highlights of the meal. What I liked most about the food overall was how clean everything tasted. Nothing felt greasy, heavy or too salty. The flavors were balanced and very comforting. We ordered the pork bossam, kimchi pancake, and chicken kalguksu. The pork was tender and had a clean flavor that really let the quality of the meat come out. The kimchi pancake was topped with a poached egg which was interesting.... Personally, the poached egg addition wasn't really for me, but my friend loved it. The pancake itself was crispy flavorful. The chicken kalguksu was exactly what I want when I'm craving comforting and warm food at 11 PM after watching a musical. The broth was light but flavorful, and the noodles had a good chew. It felt homemade!! The ambience was very very cozy and nice. The interior is warm and cozy and intimate, it's great for a night with friends, or even a date night!! I love any spot with soft lighting. Even late at night, the restaurant felt relaxed and inviting. Service was also great. The food came out quickly, and every staff member that came to our table was very friendly.

When we pulled up to the restaurant, we were informed there were a few levels. We went to the second floor and they were happy to accommodate us. We were rolling 6 deep and the booth was enough for us, but barely. In our party, majority of us wanted meat with the exception of 2 people only wanting shrimp and something else. We got the large beef combination platter which comes with ribeye, thin skirt, brisket, marinated kalbi, and marinated chuck flap. Most people stuck with water, while a couple got ginger ale. I ordered the soju flight but I ended up not liking it so my cousins shared it. The meal comes with different veggies as well as your choice of soup. We got the spicy tofu and split it 6 ways. The spice lived up to its name, so I didn't eat very much. The best part was meat. Despite there being 6 of us, there was plenty to go around. I think you have the option to cook it yourself or have them cook it for you and we chose the latter. While I enjoyed it, I wish there was more space. Most of the space was taken up by the accompaniments that come with it (veggies, etc), so there was hardly any room to put anything else. It didn't help that none of our dishes were cleared once we finished them and that no rice is included. Aside from that, both the food and service were great.

We walked into a stylish but relaxed space that feels suited for both casual dinners and a night out with friends, with an atmosphere that balances energy and comfort well. The room gets lively when it fills up, but the noise level adds to the experience rather than detracting from it, making it feel like a place built for sharing and conversation. The food is where Hojokban stands out. The complimentary banchan sets the tone for the meal with flavorful sides that add variety before the main dishes arrive, each one thoughtfully prepared and offering a different texture or flavor profile. The gomtang soup is one of the more comforting options, bringing together tender meat, a rich broth, and classic Korean flavors in a way that feels hearty without being overly heavy. The galbi dishes are also a highlight, with the meat cooked well and carrying the sweet and savory balance that makes Korean-style grilled beef so enjoyable. The portions are generous, and the quality of the ingredients is noticeable across the board. The menu has several unique dishes worth exploring. The truffle potato pancake is one of the more memorable items, combining a familiar Korean staple with a richer, modern twist that adds depth without losing the essence of the original. The perilla oil noodles are another standout, offering a lighter but still flavorful option with a distinct nutty aroma that lingers on the palate. The beef tartare adds a more refined element to the meal, fresh and well seasoned, while dishes like the ramyun fried rice bring a fun comfort food element with bold, savory flavors. Together, the menu covers enough ground that you can build a meal around both familiar favorites and more creative choices. Service is friendly and the overall experience feels welcoming rather than overly formal. The staff are attentive without hovering, and they handle the busy flow of the restaurant with a pace that keeps the meal moving without feeling rushed. The menu is designed for sharing, and the portions make it easy to order several dishes across the table, allowing you to try more of what the kitchen has to offer. The lively atmosphere adds to the meal, making it a good fit for group dinners where the energy of the room matches the pace of the food. Hojokban does a good job blending traditional Korean flavors with a more modern dining experience. It is a place where you can come for familiar comfort food while still finding dishes that feel creative and different. If you enjoy Korean cuisine and want a restaurant with a little more personality, this is a spot worth checking out. It delivers a meal that feels both familiar and fresh, striking a balance that makes it easy to return to and explore more of the menu.

And the entrees were delicious and even with other tables almost on top of each other it never felt crowded due to partitions that I saw them remove for some larger groups needing tables "together", and I never felt part of someone else's dinner convo. Presentation was amazing and food was delicious - Soon Tofu Soup with seafood for me, which arrived bubbling like a cauldron. It came with a raw egg that you crack into the soup and let it cook to your level of doneness. Hubs got hot stone bibimbap and as we all know the crispy rice is the best part of it... it's just tough to separate it from the actual stone dish so you can eat it, especially if you wait until it cools and fuses. If I was there with more stomach space I wanted to try the galbi, and in fact there's a weekday lunch combo that could facilitate that.

    Have you ever had a meal and you never wanted it to end? That was me for this meal. I would come…read moreback here in a heart beat and when I do, I can't wait to try the other items on the menu!!! Galbi-jjim and mushroom sotbap is literally a match made in heaven. The galbi-jjim was perfectly tender like I could literally pull it apart with my chopstick. The addition of the rice cake, pumpkin, and pyogo mushroom were a nice touch. The soy sauce base was a little sweet and if you take a bit and pour it over the mushroom sotbap, it is soooooooo good!!!!!!! The mushroom sotbap is so umami. There is foie gras in it which maybe be in a little overpowering for some people but I really enjoyed it I could easily eat a whole bowl of their freshly made kimchi. It was perfect. Not too salty or spicy or fermented. Literally perfect!!! I actually asked for seconds. The cold cucumber broth was really refreshing Highly, highly recommend making a resy!! Deff a classy establishment

    I came here for my birthday celebration recently and had a good time! The interior of Moono is…read morestunning and spacious as it was once an old cathedral. There's a main dining room and a mezzanine. I sat at the mezz and got an amazing view of the main dining room. Service here is amazing. The only thing that I thought was a bit of a shame is that there's a $10 cake cutting service PER PERSON, if you wanted to celebrate a birthday. We got their fried chicken, beef tartare, 2 galbi jjim, and their bossam. Everything was phenomenal. While I think we could've skipped the chicken, the galbi jjim is a must-try. Cocktails are also great here. Amazing dining experience, food, ambiance, service, and I highly recommend.
