Parking can be a little tricky, but same can be said about the whole neighborhood, so it's worth it to find a spot. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating to dine fora casual atmosphere with cool music playing.. and you can ask the staff, but they also told me they have a trivia night! Speaking of the staff, they are all very kind and helpful making the experience that much better. The drunken wing plate had insane flavors, I can't say I've had any wings like them, it is the priciest item on the menu, but there is a ton of wings and rice and you will be very satisfied. I also highly recommend the peppered Bulgogi hot plate, outstanding flavors! And the rice gets a little crispy, sitting on that cast-iron plate!! Don't forget to wash it down with a beer, I highly recommend the hazy Ube IPA!

Came back to the restaurant as my friends mentioned that their other dishes were worth a try…read more Decided to give the restaurant another try to see if it was as good as they said it was. We ordered the beef stir fried udon, mapo tofu, eggplant dish, pan fried dumplings and cucumber dish. The food was as good or better than they said it was. The mapo tofu was the highlight of the dinner. The heat was good and the numbness from the pepper corns was apparent. It was a delicious dish to have. The pan fried dumplings were more juicy than the soup dumplings I had at my first visit and would definitely recommend that over the soup dumplings. The service was good as they would occasionally check up on us to make sure nothing else was needed. The relaxed atmosphere made it more welcoming. Overall it was a vastly different experience than the first time I was here.

And as expected, the chicken wings ended up being hit at my friend's housewarming party. Everybody kept asking who brought the chicken, where it was from, what do they need to ask for, and I'm over here like: "Girl I got you!! Salt & Pepper wings from Golden Chopsticks!!" For a party tray, they have 2 options: small and large. To my surprise, the small tray could also be considered a large tray since they're generous with their portions. The chicken also still tastes great a day later when you reheat it in the air fryer. Will I be back? Most definitely.

The shop is connected to Mad for Cheesecake so it's super convenient to grab a dessert on your way out.

I don't really like the sausage since it was too salty in my opinion, but this tteok is actually kinda insane since it is just crispy enough on the outside and qq on the inside. The caramelized spicy/sweet sauce pairs quite well with the rice cake. This was maybe $5. Wings and Drums - 5/5 - I got the Yangnyeom and Spicy wings. I like how their wing/s drum's quality is consistent and they have this crispy skin and spicy sweet sauce with different level of spice (I think koreans like to add sweetness to most of their foods). I think Boncho is probably my top 3 fav kfc (korean fried chicken) spot. Overall Thoughts: Best Thing I ate: Everything here is pretty solid but the big drums is textually my favorite. Something to Improve: Make the sausage less salty there is plenty of flavor from the sauce alone but keep up the quality!

This place is low key the best fried chicken I've ever had. I prefer boneless so I got the chicken…read moretenders, and the meat quality was great (I hate tendon-y weird bits which is why I avoid dark meat) and it was the most moist chicken tender ever too. And somehow so hot that it nearly burned my mouth (this is a good thing, as so many fried chicken places bring out lukewarm chicken). This place clearly fries to order (it does take a bit longer to get your order because of it, but it's absolutely worth it). And the size - these are the biggest chicken tenders ever! My husband and I could barely finish 8 pieces together, and he eats a lot. The generous serving size makes this place the best deal in town, in addition to being the best quality and best tasting. We got the Gold King which was the perfect sweet-garlic-soy flavor, and the spicy chicken (can't remember what it's called but it's one of the "basic" non sauces options). The spicy wasn't that spicy (and I can't handle very much spice at all) so some people might not think it's spicy enough. Definitely flavor over heat. The batter is so light and crispy, great texture. You can't get the special flavors when you order a 4 count unfortunately, you have to choose between "plain" fried chicken or spicy, but then they give you a free sauce to go with it (but the sauces are different than the special flavors that are available for the larger count options). I wish I could get any flavor in the 4-count orders. Service: Everyone is SO NICE here! Super friendly, and when they found out we wanted to watch the basketball game, the manager logged into his own personal Amazon prime account to stream the game for us (and brought out cheese balls for us too!) This is our new favorite fried chicken place. Well done all around!

The soy garlic was my favorite flavor. The chicken was crispy, juicy and well seasoned. The original was not far behind with an equally good crunch expected from a good spot. My least favorite was the spicy variety as I found it a little bit off-balance between the sweet and spicy favoring the sweet side. I would certainly return and get the original and soy garlic varieties again and I think this is one of the top Korean fried chicken places in San Diego. The staff was attentive and friendly, and the restaurant has inside as well as outdoor seating with a cool new modern vibe. Prices were reasonable for the current market, and chicken pieces itself were bigger than some competitors.

This one has soysauce flavor, with a hint of sweetness. Honey garlic (7.5/10): Pretty good but I was shocked from the STRONG garlic taste. I really like the sweetness of the honey but I think it was overpowered by the garlic. Spicy Galbi (8/10): These tasted really meat-y, like kbbq. It also had a lot of soy sauce and was a little salty. Secret sauce (7.5/10): These tasted just like sweet and sour sauce was poured all over, but still pretty good tbh

But my friend kept raving about it so I finally checked it out. 7pm on a Wednesday night, there was no crowd. Walked in and there was plenty of seating. While the dining room was empty, our entire time there, we saw so many people coming to pick up "to go" orders. There are several flavors to choose from on the chicken. We opted for the original and the honey garlic, which are 2 of the most popular. WOW!!! The honey garlic was by far the favorite, but both were equally good. I definitely want to try the other flavors now. In addition to the chicken they also have several different ddeok-bokki bowls. The Rose ddeok-bokki had a little bit of spice, but not to bad. You can go hotter if you can handle it. Overall, this place was great. They do not have a soda fountain. Everything is bottled or cans, which is disappointing. Only because I need a lot to drink when my mouth is on fire. So I had to take it easy with my canned coke. But I will definitely be back again soon to try something new.

And I was happy with the results. The wings are great sized and had really good flavor on all their sauces we had. My fav so far was the dirtyblue. I do however wish they were a lil bit crispier. Was disappointed in the mac and cheese balls though. Good flavor. Just a ball of soft mush though.

So I can't speak for the entire menu, but I have to shout out the Dirty Chicken Fries Tots --…read morethey're absolutely amazing. I love the whole concept: crispy tots, seasoned chicken, ranch, and all the good stuff loaded together. It's messy, flavorful, and exactly what I crave when I want comfort food. I'd give those fries an easy 8.5/10, and honestly, they're the main reason I keep coming back. Now for the rest of the experience: I first visited Dirty Birds back in 2022 and tried their wings. I think they're often listed as a local favorite, but they just weren't it for me. Maybe it was the flavor I chose or just an off day -- not sure. Unless someone else gets them and I try a bite, I probably wouldn't go for them myself. Customer service was just okay. Not rude, just kind of... meh. The workers were young and It didn't feel like anyone was especially engaged or welcoming. On the bright side, the signs around the place are actually pretty funny (especially the water one), and there's plenty of seating, which is a big plus. One thing I didn't love was the shared restroom setup. Even though the door closes, I personally didn't feel super comfortable using it. If you're into sports, this is probably your vibe -- they had games playing and a group fully tuned in when I was there. Prices are fair, and I'd still be open to exploring more of the menu in the future. Bottom line: If you're gonna try anything here, make it the Dirty Chicken Fries Tots -- they're 100% the star of the show.
