    I love KFC. But in Atlanta it can be hit or miss. This definitely wasn't a hit, but it wasn't a miss either. I just find that KFC can be overcooked. Hence the problem here. The skin was a little soggy. The exterior pieces of chicken were tough. And meat near the bone was way to red. To me this means the oil is to high and only some of it is cooked correctly. Probably won't be back.

    So I ordered their signature CM chicken to go for lunch. Because as many advertisements since I've been seeing for this place on my Instagram, it just didn't make sense to stop across the street and try them out. I called them my order it was ready in about 15 minutes. It was 10 pieces of chicken for like 17 bucks. I just wanted the chicken only. Apparently they have a lunch special. That is pretty decent. The flavor profile was amazing. The person on the phone guided me because I didn't know what I was doing Lol she told me to get the original chicken and get the sauce on the side, but you do pay for the sauce on the side, but that allows you to try different sources. Best recommendation ever.! so I had the original chicken that I tried without any of the sauce and she was correct the chicken with seasoning it was crispy and it was amazing! New fried chicken spot I have a standard you know how you get a taste for something and that ideally is what you want... This is ideally what I want. Past the original, I started dipping it into the sauces that I purchased, which was the red pepper and the spicy garlic. Both were amazing and I ended up mixing both of them and of course dipping it in ranch because I am a heat lover and a baby at the same time. I would definitely recommend anyone in the area to stop by and get this place a try they do fried chicken justice and more than Enough.! I will be back! They do have an area for dine in available, but I just ordered to go. It was very laid-back. A lot of people were ordering and picking up. There's a lot of space to be able to sit, but I just think that they're in a heavy business area so it was a lot of people stopping in for lunch. The vibes were chill.

    Sooo glad this place is open later than most restaurants/take out places. They have many kiosks so it's not hard to order. Fried chicken is extremely crunchy, moist, and flavorful- we got their original and spicy one. One downside for the wet marinated wings is that it gets soggy extremely fast but other than that no complaints. Most definitely will be ordering from here again when we come to GA. They have a tv and automated machine that tells you when their order is ready. Down size is we waited 30mins for our food- the kiosks was very staticky and it was hard to understand. The place noise level was moderate, as many people were coming in and out and with Korean songs in the background.

    After a concert, we were looking for late night bites. Initially was going to eat at a different KFC place but there was a 40 minute wait and the worker was freaking out due to how many people were showing up to that restaurant. Luckily we used the Yelp app to find a nearby restaurant, CM Chicken! They said takeout would be ready in 15-20 minutes. The place was also connected to a boba shop. Plenty of tables but it was super packed that night. Ordered garlic soy wings and spring onion soy garlic wings. Both were super delicious and the sauce was addicting! Would come back if in Atlanta again!

    This is the correct location on 10th St

    I came in tonight before 3:00 that's the time their website says it's closed. I placed my order before 2:45 because that's the time what the "manager" says that they are actually closed. I order from the kiosk because they don't take live orders. Paid in advance only for the "manager" to tell me that they closed the kitchen and I am due a refund in a few days (depending on my bank) I AM DONE with this place!

    This is when I paid at the kiosk. The woman tried to tell me I didn't pay well. How did you give me a order if I didn't pay.

    Could someone from this business, please contact me about refunding my money?. Let me start by saying that I've been a customer of this business at this particular location for over two years never had any problem love the Korean aunties that work there they're always sweet always smiling although I'm sure dealing with college students & late night customers is a very difficult role. I'm not sure if they changed management or what , but I noticed they are spanish speaking workers there now including at the front desk. Tonight I went in for my standard order for which I always asked for the sauce on the side and not on the chicken because all members of my family cannot eat the sauce I paid at the kiosk $21. I stepped to the counter order 71 sauce on the side the woman hand me a bag and says no I said this can't be mine because I literally just paid. I haven't even received the digital receipt but she shoves a bag at me that's clearly premade food... I repeat ni sauce on chicken; she say we don't do that I said ma'am I've come here for two years. You do do that if I order extra sauce, it comes in a little cup, of course you have sauce on the side. She then says no English to me and turns around and goes to the kitchen which is made of glass. You can see everyone back there and there's a whole big conversation about and they're all looking out the window at me when she can returns I say just give me a refund the woman first says no didn't ignore me for 10 minutes. Literally only dealing with other customers then comes back to me and says give me your card and a man gives her another bag of my same bag of food but I saw them manipulating it. She says OK sauce on side. I say no I just want a refund. She swiped my card and charges me $18 when I put the receipt in front of me and I said why do you charge my card and she then pulls out her cell phone with a translator to say oh do you want a refund and I say yes and now I have paid two times she say no you paid one time but I'm showing her the receipt on my phone that shows the $21 I paid for the first order the woman then says grabs the receipt and walks away and says no English no English finally I just called the police who say it will take more than an hour for them to come there obviously everyone in the restaurant is looking at me crazy but I just paid $40 for absolutely no food at a restaurant that I come to at least three or four times a monththen no person there speaks English fluently or even claims to speak English and there's no available customer service obviously I will never ever return to this place again what I did do is speak to the police about it. Too bad if someone has negative consequences from this interaction.

    staff : friendly menu : a good mix of items at a decent price. food: The Korean corndog while outside was well seasoned and crispy, the filling had an artificial taste that was almost unbearable. However the drinks were delcious.

    Will definitely come back! Love their chicken! One of the best I've had. Service was fast but all came out really good! Very casual vibe. Great portions for the price, shareable.

    I ordered the garlic spicy chicken wings! Freshly made to order :) YUMMMY!!!! It was around $17 for 10 pieces of wings, it's kinda pricey. They are open until 2AM on Saturdays, LOVE THAT! Parking was a small space, there's parking in the front and back of the building.

    My new go to fried chicken shop in the city!!!! Chicken is so crispy and juicy, owner is super friendly! We got the snow curry chicken and the monster cheese fries, everything came out fast and hot :) the chicken was so freaking good.. meat was so juicy and skin still crispy. The curry sauce was really good too. Perfect amount of spice and sweetness. Cheese fries were a miss, not very cheesy. I have had the snow curry from this and the other chicken shop at 10th st but this is better imo! The owner told me that this location is the original CM chicken from Korea (the other is not) so they use a very special batter and spice mix! So happy that this new shop opened up close to me, can't wait to go back!

    The wings were fried to perfection. The gizzards were crunchy and flavorful... the Calimari was season well, but not crunchy( I was a bit disappointed in that.) They, also didn't have cheese sauce for the fries. So, I figured I didn't need fries lol.

    What a great experience sitting at the bar for dinner…read more I was quickly greeted and got my drink order taken care of. I ordered a two piece white with slaw and greens. Awesome flavor! The staff let me sample the potato salad which was amazing. Was told the story about the lady that makes the pies and had a slice of pecan. Very good. I recommend you give them a try, because I will be back on my next visit to downtown. Enjoy!

    For a place that boldly claims to have world-famous fried chicken in its name, I really expected to…read morehave a better experience. The chicken was alright, but I wouldn't say it was the best I ever had, let alone consider it the world's best. This joint is located in the lower hub, but I believe there's also an outside street entrance. Upon entering, we were told to sit anywhere. The interior is rather dim, and it wasn't super clean as there were still some crumbs on our table from the last people who dined there. There is also a very casual feel to the place, exemplified by the fact that food is served on styrofoam plates and paper trays. FOOD: 2-Piece Dark (Thigh & Leg) (4/5) - Chicken was nice and crispy, but nothing crazy special to me. I was expecting it to be spicier. Liked it more with the Louisiana hot sauce on the table. The chicken rests on a slab of white bread and is served with average slaw and sweet baked beans. Fried Okra (3.5/5) - First time having fried okra. Not bad, and I guess frying it eliminates the slimy texture associated with okra. SERVICE: I am not usually one to complain about service. The person who served us was sweet when we did interact, but it was so hard to get their attention to order and get the bill. But beyond that, the kitchen was noticeably SLOW. My brother and I literally only ordered one plate/portion to share since we wanted to try more places, but it took over half an hour to receive our food. They do emphasize that food is cooked to order, but I still found the wait to be baffling. TLDR// Come here or don't, but if you do, make sure you are not on a time crunch. Maybe I am just being harsh because I was expecting more from a place claiming to have the world's best.

It wasn't busy at all on a Wednesday night. Signs indicate that you should seat yourself wherever available and to head to the counter to make your order. I ordered takeout, so I can't speak about the dine-in experience here. FOOD: We ordered a double order of the wings and asked for their two most popular flavors, which were the lemony pepper wet wings and some other flavor (couldn't hear the worker clearly, but just went with it). The order came with fries and a choice between ranch or blue cheese dipping sauce. Maybe I am not used to the flavor profile here, but I found the wings to be excessively salty (and I have a preference for salty food). My tongue is still tingling as I write this review. Also, the lemony pepper wings tasted like they were coated in pure citric acid. The other flavor was drowning in sauce. The wings themselves were so dry that it felt like I was eating chicken jerky. SERVICE: Food came out within ten minutes of us ordering. No frills place, so expect no frills service. No complaints. They have a bag-it-yourself policy. TLDR// This might be the first place to actually convince me that overseasoning is actually a thing. Excessively salty, dry chicken wings that my tongue is still paying the price for. Would not come back, and I would try a different spot for lemony pepper wet wings.

We arrived there exactly at 5 PM, when it opens, but there was already a pretty extensive line. A little outside the entrance, they check your ID, which I had no idea was a thing.

FOOD: We got wings in the flavors of lemon pepper (dry rub), sun-dried tomato (dry rub), buffalo lemon pepper (wet), and jerk buffalo (wet). I will say that I definitely preferred the wet wings to the dry wings. I found the dry wings to be a little too salty. In my opinion, the wings and the cook on them were just okay. I wasn't blown away or anything. Maybe the relatively cheap beer and the vibes help draw in all the appeal. TLDR// I don't think I had the greatest wings of all time here, but the vibes were really casual and pleasant. I'm glad I was able to try a place so beloved by locals.
