Being Korean and also new to the Denver area, I was craving some Korean fried chicken. I found this place based off some reviews and checked it out on my own. I ordered the honey garlic as well as spicy garlic chicken tenders, but I could have gotten them as wings, thighs, or a mix even. The texture of the chicken tenders were spot on, and the juiciness of chicken breast inside the breading was just right! If you like spicy food, I recommend the spicy garlic - it was just the right amount of gochujang spice along with garlic. I had to take a few breaks since my spice tolerance has dropped. LOL. I did order some of their homemade kimchi and pickled radish. I highly recommend the radish. As for the kimchi, if you love kimchi then go for it. I enjoyed the kimchi and it definitely tasted homemade. I came around 1:30pm on a Saturday afternoon so it was not very busy. My food came out quickly. The customer service from the front counter guy as well as the owner who was walking around tidying up was very good as well. I would definitely come back, and I also want to explore some of the Korean menu items as well. Other things I liked about the restaurant: Clean Modern Trendy Spacious Outdoor eating area with a short fence Self-water filling station along with Togo containers Big community sink for washing hands Lots of natural lighting read more

The chicken is clucking! Combo special of the chicken thighs (5 pc) with French fries and a soda - 9.5/10, you have this amazingly moist chicken covered in the right amount of batter, coated in the soy and garlic sauce with crispy, crunchy French fries. This one definitely is a must try. Combo special chicken sandwich with rice and a soda - 9/10, first bite and you're going to be hooked. The crispy layer is just popping with the soy and garlic sauce and the inside is cooked to perfection. Have to come back to check out the wings and the other flavors on the menu. read more

Chicken is always crunchy, hot, and delicious! Nothing much to say other than the best Korean fried chicken we have in town!

After bookmarking this place for a while now, we finally made it down to try it. First impression, it does give a Korean pub/Mom and pop restaurant with the decor. You order at the counter, grab paper utensils, pour your own water, and choose a table. The decor is random so it does remind me of a mom and pop restaurant and it gives a homey feel. Service was friendly and food comes out relatively quick. The food was delicious. The chicken was juicy but also crunchy - even with the honey. The tteokboki was also really delicious with the cheese. It wasn't too spicy for us but still very good. The corn cheese was also cheesy and very good on a sizzling plate. The kimchi fried rice was also another fantastic choice. Definitely will come back. One of my new favorites for Korean fried chicken. read more

CM Chicken - Soy garlic chicken with spring onion - Korean Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

Once again, our meal and the service were exceptional. The restaurant is very clean and the owner is the man working the front. He clearly cares about his business and the food product he puts forward. He is friendly and genuinely grateful to the people that choose to eat at his business. The Cajun fries we ordered today were fantastic and all three of the chicken options we ordered were well prepared and tasty. He makes and serves some of the best kimchi I've had since I was in Korea. The place is a hit and if you enjoy Korean fried chicken, this is the place for you. read more

This place is ridiculous!!! One of the best chicken wings ever and I went to school in upstate NY.

Best chicken wings in Denver, seriously. I got the spicy wings with a hot honey side and fries and it was incredible. I wanted to give the staff a hug, but they were busy. The food, staff, and cleanliness are elite. read more

CM Chicken - Korean Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

Delicious food. We came in around 7:30 pm and there was nobody else in the restaurant on a Saturday. We had to order from a kiosk which was not my favorite considering the price of a lot of these items, but it seemed there was only one employee there so it's no big deal. $100 pre tip got us 8 different dishes, all of which we had no complaints. read more

I came here for a friend meet up on a Friday night. We had a group of 15 and they were able to accommodate us very well. Khang was a rockstar! He put tables together so we could all sit together and brought out waters right away. The restaurant itself is rather large and they have indoor and outdoor seating. We basically ordered all of our meals at the same time (I'm sorry!) and it came out pretty quickly! More importantly the food that came out and was delicious! I was so impressed how tasty the fired chicken was and how good the sauces were. My personal favorite was to eat the chicken with rice but I know some people loved it with fries. Highly recommend and I would be happy to come back! Overall 5/5 read more

Picked up an order of the Soy Garlic Spring Onion chicken tenders on my way home from work and WOW! It is a quiet spot and the service is excellent. I had a short interaction with the woman working there, but she was so sweet and even packed some extra radish in my order! The tenders traveled well on my 10 minute drive home and they were absolutely delicious. Looking forward to going again to try more flavors and eat at the restaurant since it was spacious, clean and welcoming! read more

CM Chicken - Soy Garlic Spring Onion chicken tenders - Korean Near Me - Lakewood, Colorado

The food was amazing. I have missed soy chicken. We visited on 4/25. There was a long wait between a large party and multiple online orders. It's clear they were short staffed, but the guys there handled the workload like champs! Bathrooms and dining area were extremely clean. I appreciate that they have extra utensils and to go containers in several areas. read more

Definitely lots of room for improvement with service time. Ordered over an hour ahead before pick up and still waited 40 mins inside the restaurant. I did not get the chicken pieces ordered and was missing items from my order. Kimchi fried rice lacked flavor, chicken was way over fried making it overall dry. Walmart fried chicken tastes better. Calamari though tender did not have good flavor and batter tasted bitter from being over fried or cooked in old oil. The kimchi was semi fermented but had a bitterness aftertaste. Overall, plenty of leftovers that will end up in the trash. read more

I paid for beef with my rice bowl & they didn't include it in my delivery, the Tteokbokki was very eatery. Then chicken tenders had hair cooked into it. read more

Can't go wrong here! Some of the best chicken around! Some interesting sides to try that you don't see everywhere.

Incredible service and great vibe. The restaurant is very spacious and great for large parties. The onion chicken was incredible with the white sauce. I also got the rose ddukbokki (spicy rice cake) and was worth trying. The owner lady was very polite and friendly recommending the popular dishes. Will be coming back! read more

Service was amazing and the food was even better! We got 2 different kinds of sauces both of which were delicious. The drumsticks were huge, and the wings were very well portioned as well and the tenders were perfect! Chicken was super crispy but beware they are not kidding with their spice levels had to learn that the hard way! read more

Great fried chicken, great service. This place is a valuable addition to our neighborhood.

Soy garlic and cheese wings were amazing. The drumsticks were huge and even had leftovers to take home. Service was great as we went with our kids and there wasn't anyone else there, so the owner (or manager(?) Was super friendly and hospitable. The music was nice and upbeat, which our kids enjoyed. There were a lot of take out orders, which I was happy to see. We'll be back to try their lunch as they have different menu available then! Come out and support this small business! read more

Super legit chicken and great sauces. Had the sandwich with honey sriracha. Great seating, friendly owner/employee. Check em out!

We were on this side of town for a basketball tournament this weekend, and found this place on Yelp! What a gem hidden away back in a strip mall. Don't sleep on this place, the food was delicious and the service was excellent! Nice clean restaurant with large tables for big groups. We'll definitely be back! read more

The food is amazing. The service is amazing. And the ambiance lends itself to both families and large groups. This is a really cool place. The owner takes personal care into each order. We had chicken, brussel sprouts, and Korean vegetables stir fry, it was amazing. In fact it was so good we went back and we bought some kimchi just to keep in the fridge. The owner makes his own kimchi and sells it. If you love Korean food and you're on the west side this is the go to place read more

So bomb. I love the service and ambience here. Crispy and fresh baby! The best fried chicken spot in Lakewood! Finally..

This is a great chicken restaurant. The service was quick and friendly. All chicken is prepared fresh , so expect 20 minute wait while they cook some great chicken. My wife and I ordered the whole chicken and split into two different sauces, A1 and A6. There was enough chicken to serve four people. If you get sides you probably could feed six. Will definitely come back as the chicken is great. read more

Been in search of a better alternative to Popeyes or KFC. This ain't it. Husband just came back with takeout. Chicken was dry and tasteless. read more

I give this a one because while the chicken was good, the kimchi rice has shellfish in it, which was never specified on the menu. On top of that it has a very strong ocean like taste and was a struggle to get the taste out of my mouth. If you have any allergy's I would recommend not eating here as I'm not sure what else they don't specify in their menu. read more

Glad to have found this spot nearby and have more Korean food options. Friendly staff and great, quality food. The soy ginger garlic wings were esp good and something I'd eat weekly if I could! read more

Food was so delicious I think about it every other day! Wish it was a closer drive to where I live.

We discovered CM Chicken a few weeks ago and have happily returned several times as we love their chicken. The manager (Jun) is wonderfully welcoming and helpful in ordering. The chicken is freshly cooked, crispy and is so good! The restaurant itself is clean with kind of a trendy vibe. We are so happy to have an outstanding chicken restaurant in the neighborhood and would encourage everyone to give it a try. You will return!! read more

Really good chicken! We ordered the soy garlic and the spicy garlic, both were really good. Light batter and full of flavor.Service was great and fast. Definitely a hidden gem! read more
