My partner brought me here for the first time and I love the vibe of the place. You walk into a graffiti style art on the walls like train sides. I love that! The chicken sliders were so good. That's all we got but I'll be back. The wait to a little bit longer than what I anticipated.

My nephew asked me to take him here. When we got there, the line was out the door and I questioned him to whether or not we were at some hookah bar because of how chill the place looked. The artwork on the walls were so vibrant & beautiful, and made me feel so excited, waiting in line. The staff was quick and friendly. The food was amazing. One of my favorite fast food chicken sandwiches I have had. The cheese sauce is to die for . The slushies were on POINT. I would come back here over and over again. I didn't even mind the line due to the new booming business.

What a mess, this is supposed to be 2 slidders

What a mess this place is, 30 minute wait for 2 sliders. While waiting I saw an employee drop an order on the floor, then picked it up then give it to a customer! Shen then skipped away?!? When I got my order, one of my sliders was missing it's buns! The chicken was ok, but no way was this worth a 30 minute wait a horrible service

Food costs an exorbitant amount and takes forever to be made. Tastes like heaven though so I can over look the other problems.

Probably won't be back…read more The chicken was very good crispy, flavorful, but that's about it. The mac and cheese is absolutely terrible, 1/10 almost inedible. The fries tasted stale to me, my bf liked them but it was a no for me. The slaw was also pretty good, but they put way too much on the sandwhich which left it kind of soggy. The number one reason why I won't be back is due to the fact that they charge .50 for sauce... while i completely understand business need to make money, we ordered $60 worth of food and tipped - they couldn't have spared ONE extra sauce? seriously? To make matters worse - We ordered two tenders on the side - come to find out the ONE sauce that "came with the tenders" was half full LOL. very odd to not give one extra sauce and not worry about the two quarters... such a turn off. service was fine. food is made fresh. lots of places to sit. overall not super impressed.

But they also have their Moon Boy Sauce. That's good stuff. It's good on the chicken, true. I've had some leftover and used it on a salad. Delicious! They also have healthier options. I like the slaw. My favorite meal there is the Loaded Fries. Fries with slaw, chicken to your heat level, and Moon Boy Sauce. Try it. Service is always fast. And you can see it being prepared in the back. Very clean. I also like that this place is (somewhat) local. Yes, it's related to the Nashville Hot Chicken franchise. But, it's related to the local Nu Kitchen up the block.

Online ordering was turned off. It took about 45 minutes to reach the register. I've already enjoyed the Korean fried chicken at their Nashua NH location, so I decided to order something different. Besides Korean fried chicken, they also offer other Korean dishes, bowls, noodles, fried rice, sandwiches, fries, snacks, and Korean donuts. I ordered a Soy Garlic Mopo Corn Dog ($4.99 plus tax) and a Japchae ($15.99 plus tax) for takeout. The order was ready to go in 15 minutes. The Korean Corn Dog had a mozzarella cheese & hot dog center, coated with golden crunchy potato cubes and a spicy mayo for dipping. The Japchae dish had soft glass noodles, carrots, onions, spinach, red peppers, mushrooms and bulgogi stir-fried with soy garlic sauce, topped with sesame seeds. This dish had good hearty flavors. Overall, the Korean Corn dog and Japchae dish were both very good. I would come back to this Gold Star Blvd location once the newness wears off. For the time being, I'll continue to stop at the Lowell or Nashua Bonchon locations.

I was under the impression it'll be glazed style chicken like Bon Chon or bbq Chicken. I don't see…read moreanything Korean as they claim about the chicken. Either way, really solid fried chicken. Levels above Popeyes and KFC. Right to the stars now, drumsticks--spicy or regular. Can't go wrong with either or. Chicken is so deep fried. Really solid fried chicken here. They also got seasoning by the door with some fermented spices or spicy in general. Definitely worth trying if you need a bit more heat and extra flavoring. Also had wings--a bit too skinny imo. My preference here is drumsticks. Chicken nuggets- needs improvement Spicy Chicken wrap - needs improvement Popcorn chicken- very tender--definitely worth trying Grease- plenty of it Overall, their online ordering is seamless (accepts major cc and Apple Pay), and restaurant has good seating-- your general fast food style restaurant. Location is in downtown with very limited parking. Plan ahead if you're stopping in. Cheers.

This is the place to go for high-quality Korean fried chicken. They're pretty expensive, so beware…read more If you want cheap wings, you're better off going to Buffalo Wild Wings. We think the quality is worth it so this is our newish go-to for wings. Perfect for takeout as they usually time things well if you order online. Not a ton of parking so the lot can get full if it's a busy time. Not a lot of seating inside and the place seems to be catered toward takeout. Had the original, honey garlic, and spicy galbi. All three were great (photos are of leftovers the day after, sorry). Love the pickled radish that comes as a side. We ordered three boxes for two people which was plenty. The half/half box might be worth it if you're eating alone and really want variety, otherwise, I would go for individual boxes since you get more for your money. Since I'm eating the leftovers as I write the review, I will say they are definitely not as good as leftovers (not surprising) since they lose their crunch. Still tasty though!

We were excited to try bbq chicken. We have never had Korean chicken and love trying new things…read more The place was empty when we arrived but there were a lot of people coming in and out to pick up. We walked in and no one greeted us which I wouldn't have noticed if they didn't great every other person after us. We asked what was recommended and how it was our first time. The woman coldly pointed to them menu and said this is popular. The guy working sat on a tablet watching tv almost the entire time we were there. The food: The noodles were really spicy. I didn't like them and I thought the texture was weird. The cheese bread tasted like cheesy, greasy fried dough. They were ok. We got a half chicken which were small pieces with almost no meat. I would definitely get wings or boneless next time. Chicken was juicy and crunchy very yummy. Boba was bad. Tea was ok but my pearls were 1 clump. Sauces we tried were pretty good. Overall go try it. Don't expect any service at all or any help deciding.

Rating: 4.5 Came to…read morestopped by this local family owned Ethiopian restaurant for lunch on the way to Vermont. Street parking available around the area. It's a small restaurant with just few seatings and a counter. Inside was pretty empty. Looked authentic as everyone in there were African people and seemed to be speaking African language. We sat down and looked at the menu. Menu is small but offer authentic Ethiopian dishes. I ended up getting some samosas to start, spicy lentil, mixed veggie and beef. Had chai tea. Chai tea was nice and hot, chai flavor with subtle sweetness and creaminess. The samosas were fresh, steaming, crispy, and hot on the inside. Came with a dipping sauce the has bit of acidity. All the types were good but beef was my favorite. We got Ethiopian platter with meat. It came with large anjero which is a spongy fermented flat bread which feels and look like a pancake. It came with 5 different dishes on top which consisted of lentil mix, beef and vegetables, cauliflower and eggplant, chicken and veggie, and collard greens and vegetables. You scoop up the dish with anjero and eat them together. I've never had this kind of dish but it was very interesting and tasty. It had lots of vegetables and was large portion so even sharing with another person, I feel like i got really full and got my vegetables for the day. Everything was spiced and flavored well and reminded of authentic home cooking. Even though that taste of the food wasn't mind blowing it was hearty, soulful and healthy food that leave you feel satisfied. The service was excellent. The server which i think is the owner was very nice and helpful. Being relatively new to Ethiopian cuisine he was able help us navigate what to expect and order and answer any questions. He was very friendly and almost felt like a fatherly figure. Overall this place is definitely a hidden gem. If you want to try authentic Ethiopian soul food. I highly recommend visiting. Food and service were excellent. I enjoyed the experience and i was glad that i was able to try new type of food i've never tried before. These kind of family owned local restaurant are what i like to and want others to support.

The man working there was friendly and welcoming and we got an Ethiopian anjero platter with three vegetable stews, beef, and chicken. Everything was delicious and tasted healthy and fresh. I think I preferred both meat stews and the mixed vegetable stew over the lentils and eggplant stews, but everything was great. I'm going to have to clarify this next time maybe, but the stews came atop a large anjero that tasted a bit more sour than the smaller ones that came on the side. We remember the bread from the other Ethiopian place we've tried in the past to be more sour than both of the ones we had here. I looked it up and it seems there's a difference between the Ethiopian anjero (larger and more fermented/sour) and the Somali one. I like both, but it was just interesting to learn.

A menu board is posted over the order counter and two soft drink coolers to choose a bottled beverage from are next to the cashier. The menu offers a variety of sandwiches, salads and soups. There are a lot of sauces you can add to your sandwich if the menu doesn't specify what condiments are included. You can also make your sandwich a 'platter' if you want to add fries, onion rings and coleslaw to your sandwich. I ordered the roast beef and asked for horse radish sauce. There was a *lot* of sauce on this sandwich. So much so, that was all I could really taste so I'm not sure if I actually like their roast beef or not. I should have asked if I could get it 'on the side' I suppose. Live and learn. From what I could see under the sauce, the roast beef is cooked very rare. It was difficult to chew through and with all that sauce it made for a very messy meal. We ate in their dining room which is a small, pleasant space with lots of old photos of Worcester. The napkins available at the table are kind of useless. They smear the mess, they don't mop it up. I used a LOT of napkins trying to keep tidy while eating my sandwich. The fries were very good when hot. Crispy outside, fluffy inside. The coleslaw was almost without flavor. Salt and pepper are on the table. You're going to want those. Just watch that salt shaker, it comes out FAST! There is one restroom for all guests at the back, past the kitchen. It's clean and in good working condition.
