I was looking for Korean food close by and was wary of a place called "Chimac" and even more wary of a place that looked like a chicken fast food place. I figured I'd give their bulgogi fried rice a try. First of all the cashier Blanca did an awesome job!!! Friendly and helpful. Second: the bulgogi bowl was surprisingly delightful, even coming with a little side of kimchi and what I assume was some steamed cabbage. The bulgogi was very good and the kimchi had a great taste to eat. The guy who brought the food to me was awesome and friendly (wish I knew his name). Overall, it was a great and fun experience and I'll be back to try the fried chicken when I'm in Houston again. read more

This place is a gem! The food was all hot and freshly made! The staff was friendly the inside including the bathroom was clean. It even has a drive thru. We will for sure be back! read more

Chimac - KBBQ Chicken Bowl (Spicy) - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

I ordered Korean barbecue and garlic pepper wings and what I got was plain wings. And the girl behind the counter told me the sauce was real thin. That's not an excuse! The service I received from the girl behind the counter with blue hair was horrible. I spent $57 dollars and it was not worth the money. read more

The extra crispy wings, the wing flavors, all amazing. The Jerk chicken bowl is fire and has a nice flavor. Visited Chicmac when they first opened some time ago. And was surprised with everything. Months later and even now, they don't disappoint with what they do. Are the combo meals "pricier" than usual? Sure. But I normally think about it as getting an appetizer at a different restaurant. It's a LOT of food and you will not be disappointed. Highly recommend this place. read more

Five starts without a doubt! The staff is extremely friendly and helpful when choosing your order. They will guide you through their menu, making sure you get the best of what they have to offer. They are also very generous with the extra sauces. The food is what will bring you back again and again. The must try on their menu is the Korean BBQ rice bowls. They come in either grilled chicken or beef, spicy or regular. Plentiful helpings for the price. They also offer cheesesteak sandwiches, burgers, and fried chicken wings. The wings come in a variety of sauces for any set of taste buds. Highly recommend the Houstalanta BBQ and Spicy KBBQ. Great quality wings for any occasion. What stands out about this place to me is the combo deals. They have a Korean BBQ rice bowl combo that comes with the bowl, 6 wings, and a drink for around $12. More than enough food for one person, and with a side could be split between two. The family combos are perfect for 4 or more people. They have a 30 wing deal for $20; a 30 wing, 1 bowl, 2 sides, and 4 drinks for about $26. More than enough for a family of 4 at a great price. There are also larger combos for more people that are great for feeding a lot of people without the hassle of cooking. The actual restaurant has a relaxed vibe, not many tables but you can sit down to eat if you care to. Their to-go service is excellent. Usually ready in 15-20 minutes. Worth a try if you live in the area. Great small business, I hope they stay for a long while. read more

Chimac - Menu as of 7/20/2021 - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

I love the name! I received a flyer when this place first opened up and wasn't expecting much, been back a few times and my children love it! read more

This is my second visit. Great customer service. First visit they gave me chicken bbq bowl instead of steak, but quickly rectified it and told me to keep the chicken. Actually, I prefer the chicken over the steak now. The chicken was tender, juicy, tasty, and the portion size is huge and enough for me for two days. The wings were pretty good. I got the Cajun and HoustAtlanta BBQ and really enjoyed them. So much so, I returned and used the coupon they gave me to get two more orders of the same. I'll definitely be back to try the other flavors, as there wings are pretty decent. I see that they are branching out with the menu and adding fried seafood and a few other healthier options . I'll have to try them once their added, maybe. All in all, Chimac is a decent spot for Korean/American fusion. read more

Chimac - Chimac Restaurant - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

My teenaged daughter and I finally got to visit this hidden jewel of then suburbs. First of all, we were greeted promptly by the front desk employee and he showed us what they offered from their menu board. We ended up sharing a #3 combo (beef and fried rice) and we got a 6 piece wing. It also comes with a small salad, but he gave us an extra salad since we were sharing one entree. That was a nice surprise. The beef was tender and flavorful. The fried rice was yummy. It tasted amazing! We ordered KBBQ wings. It was the second spiciest level they had. Next time, I'll order the spiciest level! Their Chimac sauce was the bomb! Then they passed out small samples of their bread pudding. It was delicious! Just enough sweetness and perfect texture. Overall, we will definitely recommend this place! Good food and excellent customer service = A++. The pic is that of the sticker that was stuck to the cash register! Such a cute dive. read more

Chimac - Half KBBQ Chicken/beef Bowl w/fried rice, lemon pepper wings. - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

I love the idea of the fusion of food(Asian+Mexican), but Unfortunately I have to give three stars to say it didn't meet best quality. The food here is pretty greasy, and the meat isn't quite tender. I got the steak, bowl with noodles, and that was basically it, not quite much a spark. They even gave a honey mustard dipping sauce on the side, but the meal seemed drenched enough in a lot of flavor and oil which actually wasn't really flavorful. Although I'm a little disappointed, I am willing to come back and try another different combination. I have hope!! read more

Bland and over priced. Family of 5 came out to $70 and for that price I was not impressed at all. I had the cheesesteak sandwich - 2nd half of the sandwich was soggy by the time I could get to it (and I eat fast). Husband the Chicken bowl (spicy) and wings that was $20 - all spicy and no actual flavor. Son. Had the shrimp bowl with noodle - bland. Don't even care to continue with the rest. I've avoided this place since Hart's chicken used to be here..... and I wasn't wrong. I've had better/cheaper mall food for those comparing it to mall food. The 1 extra star it got was for my husband saying it wasn't the worst. I totally disagree and he can go by himself next time. read more

The location is not picturesque but the food is pretty good. I wasn't thrilled with the kimchi fries, but that was most likely due to the large portion of chicken and noodle that I devoured before getting to it. Seems like it was a little pricey, but then again so is McDonalds these days and this is NOT Mackie's. My better half wants to go back, but I am not in a terrible rush. read more

Chimac! This place serves Korean Soul food. The perfect place to recover from a hangover. Combo steak and wings we pretty awesome. Is it a fine dinning experience, not really. Just really good plates that are sure to put you in a coma. Similar to Jones Chicken and Rice or Halal Guys kind of joint! Except Korean. Combos are about $15 Ducats. read more

Me and the Fam were in the area doing some post New Years shopping and had to make last minute lunch plans. I like to do the pin the tail on the yelp map and this place came up. The "old chicken joint" facade almost turned us around, but we went ahead and gave it a try. The menu is a little bit confusing but with a little help from a very friendly employee we got our order in. Wait time was pretty quick and the food was all hot fresh and very tasty. I would have to rate the service 5stars, value 5stars, quality 4.5stars. All in all I would definitely return, and recommend to anyone in the area. read more

I loved my spicy bbq chicken bowl with rice. It was perfect size and delicious. I'll coming back to try other plates from menu.

Ok, Chimac. So I read your response to my last review, and decided to give you a second chance, because I know that you're capable of being a five star restaurant. I was perusing through DoorDash, and found out that you sell burgers made from Angus beef. I am a burger snob, to say the least. I figure that if a restaurant sells burgers and they don't get the burger right, then there's not much else that they can do right. So I figured that it was the perfect order for you to prove yourself. So I ordered a Angus cheeseburger with your onion rings and a Coke. About 30 minutes later, the Dasher showed up. Naturally being hungry, I said, "Let's get right to it." First up is the onion rings. I did like the heavy crunch on them. My main complaint on these is that they may need a little extra salt when they come out of the fryer. I did notice on one of the onion rings, two of the rings were stuck together before frying. I'm not going to fault you for it, because you could've done that intentionally to keep the onion rings from falling apart. I'll give the onion rings a 3.5 out of 5 rating without the salt, and a 4 with it. Just an idea: Serve the onion rings with some kind of spicy dipping sauce. That could potentially take them over the top. Now to the burger. I can confirm that your burger patties are indeed made with Angus beef. The meat tasted like a burger that you would cook on the backyard grill in the summer. Cheese was well melted. The bun was nicely toasted. It had a enjoyable crisp, slightly reminiscent of an In-N-Out Burger bun, which I enjoy. The vegetables were very fresh, especially the lettuce and red onions. Just the right amount of mayo, mustard, and ketchup was present. The burger is messy, but in a very good way, because a messy burger is a better burger. It gets a 4.5 out of 5 rating. The Coke did taste like Coke, which is great. All in all, Chimac, congratulations. You did redeem yourself. Keep up the good work! read more

So glad we found this place on DoorDash! The BBQ Chicken is amazing with the sauce and rice. The portions are huge and they have great prices. I would definitely like to explore the menu more and try some wings or a shrimp bowl. The location isn't the best but the food is! read more

Decided to try this joint out due to i pass it all the time. So we stopped in and I'm glad I did. It's a korean restaurant but not the traditional korean type. Think of Korean infused flavors in your everyday foods (I.e. chicken wings). We ordered the number 3 which is wings flavored in spicky Korean BBQ sauce, beef with fried rice. Amazing flavors I tell you what! The wings were piping hot and shimmering with the bbq glaze. WOW. The service was quick and responsive. My only concern is the limited seating area. You basically get your food in a to-go box and quickly find a seat (where available). Try this place out. You won't regret it. Yum!!! read more

I mean... WOW. This review comes from a lady who doesn't love the idea of KBBQ but I have to say I am so happy that I gave this restaurant a try. The customer service is unparalleled, and the food is absolutely delicious. I'm not kidding when I say my husband literally sings on his way home. Thank you CHIMAC, we love you! Also a huge thank you to Daniel for going above and beyond for us on this trip to CHIMAC, this restaurant is lucky to have you! read more

I came here for the first time yesterday and it was such a amazing experience to where I had to leave a TikTok about it. I came around 1 pm and the cashiers were amazing. I didn't know what to get so I asked what is purchased the most and they told me the ribeye steak! Loved everything about it. Definitely have to come again this week read more

Chimac - KBBQ Ribeye Steak Bowl - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

This place is so delicious. I'm blown away by the quality and taste of the food. Always fresh. Always mouth watering flavorS. 10/10

Surprisingly good Korean fire chicken and rice bowls. I liked the dry rubbed chicken more because less messy to eat. Quick and good.

What a find!!! We had Korean Jerk Chicken, Korean ribeye bowl, fried noodles, and KFC. So much yum on one table. This is out of the way for us on a normal day, but we will make a special trip to eat here soon! read more

We happened to be around the area and saw good ratings for the place and decided to give it a try. It's a small hole in the wall but don't let the look fool you. There's a huge selection so we couldn't decide what to order. The girl at the counter was so nice and helpful in deciding wing flavor and what she recommended. The food we ordered was good! The serving size for the bowls were generous as well. Definitely recommend giving them a try! We will be back to try other menu items! read more

Edible but not enjoyable. If you're hungry it would fill you up if you actually like to enjoy flavorful food keep searching. None of our special requests were fulfilled and the "sauce" was pretty much nonexistent. I'm not from here so maybe the locals enjoy it but it was nothing to write home about. read more

Chimac is definetly one of my go-to's. although the outside does look a bit like a turnoff the food is amazing and has never disappointed me. the variety of food you can order here is awesome and they never fail to disappoint the amazing flavor that they include within no matter what it is. read more

Oh man, this place is great for fast food! Live the Large KBBQ Chicken Extra Spicy, No Kimchi, EXTRA Cabbage on fried rice. It's big enough I split the lunch up for 2 days at the shop. Give them a Try! read more

The kbbq steak bowl 6/10 - I felt it was lacking severely in flavor, needed a dollop of satay, some fish sauce or gojuchang and 3-4 packets of soy sauce tbh. I think I should have done rice too as the base so at my next visit I'll def change it up. The fries were delicious, the kimchi was tasty and the meat sweet as to be expected. The wings were decent in size - I believe we didn't get their most popular flavors but that's our fault. I would recommend the houstatlanta bbq flavor though it was really good, just wish it were spicy. For this spot calling themselves "fast food" I have to say everything did come out quick but maintained quality on top of tasting super fresh! read more

Order bowl with fried rice, chicken and shrimp, philly cheesesteak and onion rings. Rice was bland and overcooked, chicken was dry and hard like if it was cook earlier in the day. Philly cheesesteak was not good either. Food seemed overpriced and not tasty at all. I had to throw away most of the food. read more

I ordered 4 times from this place, the first time was great. Food came as I expected, but then the next 3 times the food was terrible. I ordered kbbq chicken with rice and they gave me boiled chicken with no seasoning or sauce on the rice... like what? You have to be bold to do that as a kbbq restaurant. And don't bother ordering the fried rice with chicken, they'll give you boiled chicken with no flavor on top instead of frying the chicken with the rice. The ribeye bowl is great though, if you're going to get something go with that. Can't say as much for ordering the chicken. Do beware they don't give a lot of meat, just a lot of rice. It looks like a lot in the picture because they spread it out on the rice, but for the price it's not that great. P.S. don't bother ordering sauce with your meals, they never add it in ( pretty sad when I order 4 times and you forget my sauce) 2 stars from me for that read more

Chimac - Chicken Wings Near Me - Houston, Texas

Came back several times to see if the quality is as inconsistent as it seems. And yes it is. I've come to the conclusion that whoever their cook is on the weekends, is great. Weekends are when wings are cooked properly and fried until crispy. Their cook on weekdays does not fry the wings properly. It is always soggy and flavorless. Hence, my 3 star review. read more

This place is DELICIOUS!! I've wanted to try Chimac since it opened, but I wasn't sure what it was and I'm not a fan of the parking lot... today they offered $3 off on Postmates so I thought, what the heck. Let's give them a shot. Boy am I glad I did! I ordered their KBBQ Bowl + 6 Wings + Drink so I could try a little variety. I ordered the chicken bbq and it was so tender and had a delicious flavor. It tasted almost exactly like the bourbon chicken you crave from the mall that came on a bed of white rice, cooked cabbage and I think kimchee (spicy cabbage?). Whatever it was went perfect with the dish. I wish I would have upgraded the rice for their noodles. I bet those were yummy! The portion was HUGE and well worth the money. As for the wings, I'll never eat at Buffalo Wild Wings or WingStop again. The wings were super thick with tons of juicy meat. The wings were priced perfectly and came drenched in sauce. I ordered the hot lemon pepper and honey garlic pepper. The hot lemon pepper was spot on, however the honey garlic pepper was the star of the show. I've never had honey wings before but man, those were crispy and had delicious sweet flavor. If you're thinking of ordering here, I doubt you'll be disappointed. I would have uploaded pics, but the food was too good to stop eating read more
