I like the sweet and spicy sauce for the chicken. Haven't ever dined in, but I've gotten take-out quite a bit and it's always been good. One thing to keep in mind is they offer a small discount if you pay cash vs using a credit card. read more

THE GOOD ---------------- + Solid Korean Fried Chicken. Was it the best I ever had? No. But it was pretty good still. ++++ Kalbi Chicken and Soy Garlic Fried Chicken were good. A bit too saucy for my liking for Korean Fried Chicken, but had good flavor to them. ++++ Don Katsu was also pretty good - very crispy pork cutlet and it came with a soup, cole slaw and white rice. + It's tight around the entrance and cashier, but there are a few decent size tables inside the dining area to the left. + The entire staff were suppppper friendly to our family and the service was excellent. THE NOT SO GOOD ---------------------------- - The private parking lot is a bit tight as there are only 3 parking spaces for the restaurant. RANDOM OBSERVATIONS -------------------------------------- = For the Fried Chicken entrees, a small order of drumsticks consist of 5 pieces. read more

I put in a take out order for Galbi wings thru their website. Upon arriving at the store, I saw parking spots available right in front of the store. Right in front of the entrance they have the register counter. On the left is the dining area. Loved the dining area, specially the beautiful decoration with instant noodles on the wall. My order was ready per the estimated time given. The associate handed me the wings and I was on my way. The wings were delicious. They were big, moist inside and had perfect crispy layer mixed with the Galbi sauce. Will be getting more wings from them for sure. read more

- Service was excellent: staff is extremely friendly and very helpful; fast and attentive - Cute, clean, cozy joint with decent amount of tables suited for small groups, but tables can be joined together for larger parties - High chairs and boosters are available, but be careful when pushing your toddler in while on a booster--table frame has a rather thick bar running across the bottom of the table top (had to switch her to a high chair instead as her thighs were getting squished) - Interior wall lined with different varieties of ramen noodle packets: it's a "self ramen bar"--didn't try it but assuming you take a packet and cook it yourself at the stations by the microwave - Food was fresh and HOT: chicken drumsticks were saucy, cripsy, juicy and piping hot--be careful with that first bite; pork katsu was also crispy and tender, but the pork itself wasn't flavorful, the sauce had a nice tang, which the kiddos really enjoyed read more

Among the Korean fried chicken places in the area, I'd put Don chicken up there with Bloom in terms of crunch, flavor and size. Great quality food and I usually order via Doordash or Postmates for delivery. Went with the classic soy garlic and no sauce wings and they came out perfectly. read more

Ordered the original 10 wings with Sweet and Spicy sauce on the side. Idk why I never thought to do sauce on the side to preserve the crispiness lol The wings were crispy, yummy, and not greasy like some other places. The yangyum sauce was also good! I feel like it's hard to find good yangyum sauce, but Don Chicken did it right. The chicken came with pickled radish as well. just be careful that the lids are tightly shut so they don't leak when picking up. read more

Don Chicken - Original wings - Korean Near Me - River Edge, New Jersey

Korean fried chicken . First time here and I liked it . I wish they had a 6 or 8 piece lunch :) 11 piece was a little too much .. even with drumsticks they have 5 piece meals . Tried garlic soy chicken and it was good .... taste was awesome . I also got the spicy chicken .. and it was good . They charged 1.50 or 2$ for rice. Wish they include a rice bowl with this ... Parking is too small. They just have parking for 3-4 cars .. Overall we liked it . Good one ... 15$ lunch. read more

Ordered via Uber eats. We decided on the boneless chicken and the soy garlic chicken. Both were very good so no complaints. The soy garlic flavor was on the lighter side so it's different than other Korean fried chicken soy garlic flavor but not bad. We will definitely order from here more often. read more

Holy SHIT!!! I used to compare this shit-hole with Pec Pec Chicken????? I bought twenty Hot n Spicy wings and after raving about this place, it went the route it's predecessor Funk's did OMG I HAD TO LITERALLY CHOKE THEM DOWN The last disgusting wings that were as bad, was Hooter's Breaded CRAP!!!!!!!! Won't see me again!!!!!!' read more

When it comes to Korean fried chicken, the competition is fierce in Bergen County. There's no shortage of options from Bonchon to Pelicana to Boom Boom. Don Chicken is the latest challenger and unfortunately, doesn't quite reach the level of the upper echelon establishments. I tried the soy garlic, snowing cheese, and sweet & spicy wings. I also got snowing cheese fries and onion rings on the side. The chicken wasn't bad, but didn't really stand out either. The flavors were familiar and the taste was fine, but didn't quite have the oomph to set it apart from other KFC joints. The fries and onions rings were below average. Overall, I don't think Don Chicken is bad. I just don't think it offers anything that would entice me away from the Bonchon's and Pelicana's. read more

Roaming suburbia on Christmas, seeing no open restaurants and feeling the temperature become less spring-like as night approached, I did consider abandoning the excursion. I skipped the next train to Hoboken and the gamble paid off. The spicy garlic wings were superb. I knew the sauce would be serious when the table setting include a plastic glove. The pickled radish included with the chicken was a fine counterpoint, but one unexpected delight was the gimmalie appetizer, fried glass noodles wrapped in seaweed. read more

The closest Korean Fried Chicken place near my house that is always delicious. If you live in Bergen County towards Route 17, there is no need to go all the way to Fort Lee/Palisades Park to satisfy your Korean fried chicken craving. The wings have a sweeter flavor compared to typical southern style chicken but if you get the spiciest option; make sure to have water ready. I recommend trying the snowing cheese french fries too while you are there. read more

Good korean fried chicken. I think the best in the area. Service is always pretty quick and they have really juicy, crispy chicken. Sometimes they run out of certain things on the menu when you order late though. My favorite is either the plain crispy chicken or bburings (sweet, salty korean dry rub). The saucy chickens always get a little too saucy/wet for my taste. Warning! The spicy is pretty spicy. Can't really go wrong whether you get the wings, drumsticks, or whole chicken at this spot. read more

Don Chicken - Soy Garlic Chicken, Sweet & Spicy Chicken, Fried Pork Dumplings (6 Pcs), Ppurings Chicken - Korean Near Me - River Edge, New Jersey

I was really in the mood for (k)orean (f)ried (c)hicken, but unfortunately my go to spot is closed during the covid crisis. I saw the really good reviews and decided to order a 10pc soy garlic, 10pc sweet & spicy, & cheese snowing fries. They don't offer smaller portions so I had no choice but to order 10pc each. My favorite flavor from any (kfc) joint is the soy garlic, but the soy garlic flavor from Don Chicken was completely lacking. It seems like they're cheap with the sauce & drizzle it on like syrup. The sweet & spicy flavor was too sweet for my liking. It tastes like a sauce from something you would get at the chinese spot. What I don't get is is that why are the sweet & spicy wings covered in the sauce, but the soy garlic isn't? I've never had snowing cheese so I didn't know what to expect, but I thought it was going to be on the salty/tangy side. Instead it was sweet-ish. The only thing I enjoyed was the radish that it comes with. Don't get me wrong, the crispness of the chicken was on point, but the flavors just didn't hit the spot. I literally had to throw a lot food out which I don't like doing. I would not come back here. P.S- They have a tiny parking lot in front of the store. There are like 4 spaces, but I believe you can park on the street. read more

I last reviewed another Korean fried chicken wing spot to see the difference between the two. Must I say, holy chicken, these were gooood. The batter on the wings at Don Chicken was especially nice and light. I didn't feel gross after eating them at all, instead I was floating on cloud 9. Wings ordered as follows; - spicy garlic soy - hot and spicy - sweet and spicy - original The cabbage slaw that is served with the wings is a great side to have. Interior: Don Chicken is fairly new to the neighborhood. It has great lighting and is fairly clean. You also have the option to order out to enjoy the deliciousness on your couch! Tips: Don Chicken is BYOB! Such a plus!! read more

My boyfriend and I ordered the Spicy Garlic Chicken and sweet and sour chicken with a side of pickled radishes and a side of hot and spicy sauce. Everything was delicious if you are a spicy person like me definitely get the spicy chicken and for intense heat add the hot and spicy sauce on side it is amazing. Will definitely order again. read more

I seen great reviews about this place and I wanted to check it out while I was in the area. First time having this chicken and it was crispy like the others said. I had the soy garlic and sweet spicy and man I agree with the other yelpers who made a review about it. Price was great and the chicken was worth every penny I'm not over exaggerating neither. I know good chicken and I know the smell of good chicken but the taste isn't something I can explain to you. Go go go and try it out yourself. Won't regret it. Crispy , nice and hot , well packaged. They also give you gloves to eat with so that you don't mess up your hands but see I was hungry and I didn't have time to go through the bag. I had to burn my upper lip lol next time I'll let cool down but not to much bc you must eat while in the middle of hot and warm to taste the great crisp. They also did a great job from not letting the wings touch just incase people don't like when they wings touch. I'll definitely be going back again soon I want to try the other wings but make sure you get the fan favorite ( soy garlic ( barely taste the garlic & the sweet and spicy ) you'll enjoy it ! read more

Solid chicken! I'm thrilled that Don Chicken now has two locations - the original in Pal Park and now this second one in River Edge. Compared to the Pal Park location, the interior here is much bigger. They have ample seating so it really makes for a good outing with friends (a big plus for after-church crowds since they open at 11 am!) Chicken comes out fast, hot and crispy and there's no shortage of meat! For a group of 4, we ordered 2 combos - soy garlic chicken and crispy chicken. I don't remember exactly how many pieces came out but the quantity was sufficient - we walked out pretty full and that was w/o any sides! In terms of flavors, I highly recommend the soy garlic chicken. Crispy chicken was good but I definitely prefer chicken with sauce. Will try the sweet and spicy next time! read more

Don Chicken - Korean Near Me - River Edge, New Jersey

I can't lie the wings here are great. But can I say that they're better than BBQ chicken (an amazing Korean fried check enterprise) ?? Absolutely not. Don chicken and BBQ chicken both offer many different flavors and spices. In terms of just wing quality- they're tied. But Don chicken is always packed and the servers aren't as friendly as the ones at BBQ chicken. So you're probably asking why I'm giving it five stars... It's because of their side dishes!! You must get the cheese snowing french fries!! And I find that their pickled radishes taste better than the ones at BBQ. I can't offer you any pictures... I always forget to take them before I dig in LOL read more

Crack chicken! Thanks to a co-worker's recommendation, I tried Don Chicken. It's now my official go-to korean chicken spot. Nice crisp, tender chicken, well seasoned. Bon Chon who? Soy Garlic is my fave but their sweet and spicy is a nice change of pace. I've turned about a dozen people onto Don Chicken in about 3 weeks. read more

Consistent quality food. Chicken is very tasty. Always a go to place when I crave Korean fried chicken.

Love this place and it's our go to. We usually order the plain and soy ginger and regular fries. Always crispy and yummy! Oh and the cole slaw is a must We order this on a regular Friday movie night or if guest show up and it's always a winner. read more

Tasty chicken with crispness and juicy meat! I am thankful don chicken was opened up few miles from my home.(no need to go pal park any more) I ve ordered via uber eats and carry out, and they keep outstanding quality regardless of app based food delivery or carry out. (Some places give out small portion or too dried fried chicken via uber eats!) If you want the place with crispness and sweet soy flavor, Don Chicken will be it. read more

Don Chicken - Soy garlic half chicken - Korean Near Me - River Edge, New Jersey

Did takeout for last 2 of 3 NFL Playoff weekends. No complaints from the group. Pick-up was ready at requested time, and wings were still hot & crispy 20 minutes later. Packaging was very good. Spicy Soy Garlic, Hot & Spicy and Crispy (plain) were all excellent. Wings have good meat to skin ratio and they are crispy. Some wanted traditional Buffalo Sauce - the Crispy made an excellent base. Looking forward to the Super Bowl in two weeks for another round. read more

This place was actually way better than I excepted! When I called to order 60 wings for takeout, I was worried that the taste and quality would be bad when they told me itll be ready in 15mins. However, after my first bite into the wing all of my worries went away lol! Perfect place for takeout! Quick and tasty! read more

Don Chicken - Store front - Korean Near Me - River Edge, New Jersey

This place is a hole in the wall. You would normally never notice the store front from the street because of how small it is. However, the size of the front does not account for the back. I have been ordering here more frequently. This is the best korean fried chicken place in the area. Pelicana fried chicken does not compare to Don Chicken. This place gives you pickled radishes and coleslaw to start if you order a meal. To my surprise, I learned that I like pickled radish. I'm like a child in a candy store every time they are given to me. The drumstick meals are also huge. They come in 5 or 10 pieces. They're not normal wing ding drumsticks and have a lot of meat on them. They also do have normal pieces of wings, which come in 10 or 20 pieces. I specifically like the spicy soy garlic and sweet and spicy sauce on the chicken. The spicy soy is perfect in heat and doesn't pack too much of a punch. The hot and spicy is alittle too much in heat for me, but is a nice option for those who want more of a spicy flavor. read more

This is a great new addition to the area for Korean Fried Chicken. Many people might compare it to the Pal Park location and say that one is better, but I find them similar. It's located across from the old Chinese Market, so parking is a little tight. You might have better luck parking across the street at the old market and crossing the road. Inside is well lit, decorated, air conditioned and clean. I placed an order for take out via phone, and the woman assisting me was very kind, concise and polite. I ordered 10 pieces of the crispy ($10) with a side of the hot and spicy dipping sauce ($1). The chicken was a tad bit over fried to my liking, and the hot and spicy sauce could have been a little more spicier. I'm also biased because I like everything abnormally spicy, so it might be okay for others. My family gobbled up the chicken, so I probably should have gone for the larger size! They have a variety of chicken and sides, so it's an inexpensive meal for the family. I hope this place sticks around for awhile! read more

I'll get straight to the point the chicken is banging I wish I could give 10 stars just on crispiness alone!! I took some chicken home it was still crispy hours later!!

Bergen County is a tough market for Korean restaurants. There is just so much competition that what would be a great choice elsewhere just isn't making it in the Bergen County Korean big leagues. I tried the garlic soy, the spicy hot, and the gimari. Some of the wings were silly small in size. I'd say in terms of size Peck Peck has monster wings, Bonchon is average to slightly small, and Dom Chicken has mini wings. Some of them were literally the length of two quarters side by side. The chicken was definitely crunchy even though the spicy hot were soaking in sauce which was impressive. However the flavors of everything was just ok. They give you radish with your order which a lot of others charge extra for it (but frankly I don't like the sweetened radish to start with). I gave their gimmalie a try which was a novel for me to try. Not sure I'd reorder it but nice to see the creativity. That being said I'm spoiled by the options in Bergen County from the king of them all Peck Peck to the usual suspects like Bonchon and Boom Boom. This place has an upper hand in that it's local and has delivery but if I had a serious KFC itch I'd be back to my usuals. read more

I'm so excited to have Don chicken in my town now! I used to go all the way up to palisades park to get this korean style fried chicken, but now it's so much closer to where i live. :))) As a Korean, I've tried many other korean fried chicken places in bergen county, and by far Don chicken has the best soy garlic and sweet and spicy wings. They're flavorful and unique. I definitely recommend this place to my friends and family! read more
