    Great customer service and food! I really enjoyed my experience here and the best part is they make all the food pipping hot and fresh. It takes about 20 mins for the food to come out but it's worth it. We did the half soy garlic and half spicy and that was yummyyy! We also ordered the gyoza which was scrumptious! Overall, I'd come back and try other items on the menu. They have lunch deals and all you can eat wing specials. I also enjoy that it's a laid back spot, good spot to enjoy food and watch sports as well.

    Great service and tasty wings !! Located in Sterling, ChiMc serves some crispy Korean fried chicken!! I saw great reviews of ChiMc and they're also only exclusive to VA so I had to try. I got the wings and got half and half for each flavor. Their 2 signature flavors are soy garlic and spicy. I was feeling peckish so I got some of their fries as when it comes to Korean fried chicken, it normally takes longer as they fry it up fresh. The fries were tasty and fresh. It kind of has the vibes of if you were able to fry up mashed potatoes in a fry with the inside being very soft and crispy exterior. The wings came out and I enjoyed both flavors. I think I did like the spicy flavor a bit more but that's a personal preference as I like spicy food. The wings also came with a side of pickled radish which was nice to help balance the meal.

    This is fride rice spicy so good!!!

    Simply spectacular! The service was excellent, the person who served us was very friendly, the place is peaceful, and the food was absolutely delicious. Seriously, without exaggeration, you won't regret coming here.

    About a 2.5: Not all Chi Mcs are the same! We came here due to the rave reviews, as well as to see how different it would be compared to the one that is near us (which we had a very poor experience at). We called ahead to place a to-go order, as we knew it would take some time for them to make it, as they make the chicken made-to-order. We ordered the Medium Wings in soy garlic, which is a 16-count of drums and flats; note that they can't do any customizations or requests, such as getting the chicken more well-done or having only flats. We picked it up right on time, as it was coming out of the kitchen. We decided to try it out right then and there, while it was piping hot. The skin/batter was interesting, as it was super thin and crispy, and it seemed to just fall off. The soy garlic wasn't too strong, as I think it was just 'basted' onto the thin coating, which left the rest of the chicken bland. Staff were friendly, and there's limited seating inside. Located in the Cascades Plaza, there's a shared lot, but it can get filled up quick! +super thin skin +bland wings +friendly service +located in the Cascades Plaza +parking available in the shared lot

    After seeing Yelp friend, Lyn L.'s review, I knew we had to give this place a try. For us, it was easy to find as we had been to the previous restaurant (Porchetta) before it closed. We were here on a Sunday around 4:45 p.m. and the place wasn't very busy. There was a man ahead of us in line, who, like us, was trying it for the first time. When it was our turn to order, we let Mili know it was our first time here. She was very friendly and helpful. One thing we appreciated is that newbies are given a free sample of wings. The man ahead of us in line got his sample first. I walked by him as I went to pick up napkins and utensils as we were eating our food there. I asked him if the chicken was good and he raved about it. Our order consisted of a small serving of mild wings, which was 8 pieces. Also, we ordered pork buns which come two per order. We decided to share a bottle of water. To finish it up, we got coleslaw. Mili asked us if we liked pickled radishes as they come with the chicken...yes, of course, we like them! She said it would take about 15 minutes to prepare our order. While we were waiting, she brought us the wing samples. To distinguish the spicy one from the mild ones, she put a toothpick in the spicy one. My husband took the first bite of the spicy one and was impressed. I took the second bite...and wow! There was spice but it didn't overtake the chicken. (I did have to blow my nose afterwards :D ). We were both impressed with the crunchiness of the skin and the moist, tender and juicy chicken inside. When our dinner arrived, it was piping hot. We had to wait a bit to dig into the chicken. Thanks to the sample, we knew it was worth the wait. The mild ones do have good, subtle flavoring. On to the pork buns --- not only were they attractively presented but they were tasty. The pork was lightly fried and coated with a tasty brown sauce, then finely cut green onions were added. The result was a tender piece of pork on a soft bun that held together quite well. As a bonus, the scallions did not overpower it. The coleslaw...well, it was okay. The portion size is generous, enough for two. While we didn't hate it, we noticed the vinegary undertones. That's our take on it, I'm sure others may feel differently. While we were eating, more customers came in. The ones who also were dining in could be heard talking about how much they enjoyed their food. A man who came out of the kitchen (we think he was the manager) asked us how we liked our food. We told him it was better than Bonchon, which he was pleased to hear. He explained how Chi Mc is not a large national chain---it's just in NoVA. Also, he said all their ingredients were locally sourced. As he put it (and I'm paraphrasing here) there are no waits for a cargo ship carrying ingredients from thousands of miles away. As for ambience --- the place is small and has comfortable chairs at each table. Needless to say---We will be back! Next time, we agreed that we will try some other sides, for example, their mandu sounds delicious.

    Visited on a Sunday around 3 or 4 o'clock, they didn't have many people in so it was perfect. As most Korean chicken restaruants the fries and appetizers come out first and then the wings and entree items. We had a big order and everything was really tasty and fresh. The couldn't take pictures of most items we ordered because we ate it too fast lol.

    Guy working the counter was super friendly and helpful. He gave us a free sample after we said it was our first time. The spicy wings are HOT so I'm glad I was able to try them before ordering a ton of them. I like heat but these were very spicy, probably my maximum heat tolerance. Knowing that he told me not to get the spicy buns since they were even hotter lol, so I went with the bulgogi instead. Everything was delicious, crispy, and not greasy. Beers were great as well. 5/5 will be returning.

    We got our first TooGoodToGo order from Chi Mc, and we love the store already! The worker was super informative, sweet, and friendly, and made the experience super easy and enjoyable! The food is great, and we can't wait to come back here to eat in the store! Great store with good vibes, supporting reducing food waste. :) Highly recommend!!! Support local restaurants!!

    Really enjoyed the spicy chicken. Both were great but I prefer spicy food so for me the spicy wings and drums hit the spot.

    Great food! Great service and hospitality!…read more I am only in town for 3 days and was hungry after all day travel and a workout and this place did not disappoint! I was greeted and had the menu explained to me as a first time customer. While I waited and ate I got to watch a ladies line dance class (which I think is hosted here on Tuesdays). Cool vibes and delicious food. I highly recommend this location for a nice meal without too many extra frills and cool environment.

We were craving fish fry and this place served. We ordered a couple platters of catfish and whiting along with some sides. Both fish were breaded and fried perfectly. Super flakey inside and crispy on the outside. The shrimp was so crispy and crunchy you can eat it whole tail and all. I haven't had enough collard greens to make an assessment of what is considered good as a baseline but I enjoyed them! Sweet potato fries were thick and crisp. Fried green tomatoes were also delicious. Grits were very cheesy, the biscuit was also pretty good. Sauce bar was a bit lacking as some bottles were empty. But we made do with what was there. Staff was very kind and patient while we were figuring out our order. Also checked in on us to make sure we were ok. This spot is a bit further from home but we will definitely return to try more of the menu. Good fish fry is a rarity in Northern Virginia, and this place is a gem.

She did a phenomenal job overseeing our whole group by herself. The food was good. I love a good southern comfort meal. But I'd be lying that I wasn't a little disappointed they didn't have chicken and waffles. They do have chicken and biscuits which looked good.

It's exactly what you'd expect from a Southern style dish in Charleston SC. Rich, comforting, and well executed. The crispy calamari appetizer was disappointing. Most of the pieces were tiny, which made them too small to dip into the sauce. It was also too salty. Cutting the salt by about 33% would help a lot. The worst part was the service. There was a long gap between our appetizer and entrees, and I could see our food sitting under the heat lamps for a long time. When our server Soledad passed by, I told her I noticed our entrees were ready and asked if we could get them. She seemed annoyed and told me I had to wait my turn because they execute tickets in order. The kitchen talent is clearly good, but they need to train their servers to have more grace under pressure. Overall, not worth coming again when there are so many great dining options in the area.

    Sōdayz Korean BBQ in Sterling is hands-down one of the best AYCE Korean BBQ experiences in the…read morearea! From the moment you walk in, you can tell they take pride in quality -- and it absolutely shows in the food. Their menu features an impressive all-you-can-eat selection of premium meats and seafood, and we always appreciate the BIG variety. From beautifully marinated bulgogi and spicy pork to tender brisket, short ribs, and fresh shrimp, there's something for everyone at the table. The quality of the meat truly stands out -- it's fresh, well-cut, and consistently flavorful. You can taste the difference. One thing that really sets Sōdayz apart from other nearby Korean BBQ spots is the service. It's superior. The staff is attentive without being intrusive, quick to bring refills, and they proactively replace the grill multiple times throughout the meal -- which makes a huge difference in keeping everything tasting clean and fresh. That level of attention is rare and so appreciated. The side dishes (banchan) are always fresh and plentiful. The soup is especially comforting and flavorful, and the steamed egg option is such a fun and delicious bonus you don't always see at other places. Everything feels thoughtfully prepared. We always leave full, happy, and already planning our next visit. If you're looking for quality meat, a wide selection of AYCE ($36) options, and service that truly goes above and beyond, Sōdayz Korean BBQ in Sterling is the place to go!

Children under the age of 3 are free, score! We were sat right away and decided to do the AYCE, which was really affordable! ($34.99) they had al la carte options if that's what you prefer. The menu for ayce had a lot of variety. Instead of the typical brisket and bulgogi, they had many steak options and also variety with pork and seafood. Service was good and okay at the same time. Servers were friendly but they would often forget to keep tabs on the cooking. While it's really a preference thing on whether you like to grill yourself or have some help, I have seen places that have a little indicator allowing you to choose for help or not. Restaurant was clean and the cent right above the grill helped a lot with the smoke. We will definitely be back. I highly recommend this place!
