I ordered an UBerEats from Donkey MO's for the first time because after watching Netflix Korean cooking shows ... the craving of Korean fried wings was real. First time trying Donkey MO's and I was so surprised how good it was... even for take out delivery! I ordered the 10 Wings combo with French fries . The wings was super crispy and still hot! The plain French fries was good but nothing special. It paired well with the wings and to dip it in the wing sauces. Flavors Soy Garlic: super delicious! Highly recommend! and holy donkey : my gawdddddd I died eating this! It was so freaking spicy I couldn't feel my mouth, started sweating immediately, and my stomach was turning. Somehow it was addictive and I was able to eat 2 before surrendering. This wing sauce is definitely for those who love spicy. it's hot! And that is coming from a person that can eat somewhat medium spicy. Do I recommend this place? I definitely want to try this place in person instead of take out. It was really good and I feel the wings were good size and the perfect amount of crispy even being coated with sauce. It's good! I definitely recommend this place ! If take out was great .. I'm sure sitting down at the restaurant and eating will be even greater! read more

Donkey Mo’s - Soy Garlic and holy donkey flavors : 10 Wings combo with French fries - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Three stars after our first visit this past weekend, but with several asterisks because the food here is pretty darn good and we can definitely see ourselves coming back. *The girl working the register was really unfriendly and really unhelpful. Then menu itself was a bit confusing, so when one of us asked if it was possible, when ordering 10 pieces, to get 5 wings and 5 nuggets, she said YES. So, when we proceeded to order that way, she got all flustered and was like, no, no, no you can't do that! Oh, and then when we asked about any of our dishes coming with sides, only *then* did she suggest that we turn it into a combo. So, yeah, welcome to AI generation! (Needless to say, the two kids working were both on their phones a ton the whole time that we were there.) *It was cold outside and the A/C was on, so it was freezing. *Re. the K-Buffalo sauce: nothing very K about it! It was straight buffalo sauce. *Charging for a side of ranch sauce that clearly tasted like it came out of a bottle? Seriously? Lame-o. Other than the above complaints, we actually really liked this place. The vibe is chill and, as aforementioned, we enjoyed most of the food. The dumplings are 100% not homemade, but they toss them in a decent sauce so they can be more palatable (we would skip those). The fries are nice and crispy, and the brussels sprouts are excellent. So, so good, and a decent amount as well. The radishes are the typical ones you get at these joints, and they are a must. As for the main star, the chicken, it was as it should be: with shattering layers of breading and hot meat on the inside. The coating was almost a bit too thick, though. We liked the soy garlic sauce and just wished there was some actual Korean aspect to the buffalo. Prices were consistent with portions, and they do have respectable beers on draft. We have some quibbles, yes, so it's 3 stars for now, but we'll definitely be back because it's close to home and will hopefully have a more overall impressive experience next time. read more

I recently tried Donkey Mo's Korean Wings and ordered the 10-piece with soy garlic and sweet & spicy flavors. Overall, I really enjoyed it. The wings were cooked well and had a nice texture, and the sauces stood out in a good way--they weren't overly heavy or drenched, just a light, balanced coating that let the flavor come through without being too much. The soy garlic had a nice savory touch, while the sweet and spicy added a little kick without being overpowering. It's not the absolute best wings I've ever had, but they're definitely solid and satisfying. For a small spot, it really hits the spot when you're craving something flavorful and different. The store was small inside but it was dimly lit and had a vibe to it not bad a for a date night if i say so myself, the customer service was great and the food comes out quick ! Highly reccomend and will be back soon. read more

Although the sauce for the wings was pretty good and spicy, the chicken itself was just okay quality under the breading. $7 for a can of beer is more expensive than a fine dining restaurant in downtown. You can't be serious? Chimaek is a whole point of getting Korean fried chicken, and this pricing is insane. Also up-charge for a side of a dipping sauce is unheard of for a fried chicken establishment. It's. Base-line item. Coleslaw and fries were average. You have to come to a counter to ask for a soft drink refill, you can't just do it yourself. What was a complete killer is an entitled mom who decided to change the diaper on a DINING in the dining area RIGHT IN FRONT OF OTHER COUPLE EATING. Literally. Photo attached lol. I'm concerned as of why employees didn't say anything? This is so disrespectful to the other guests that had to see and smell this whole ordeal. This must be a major health-code violation too. read more

I know Donkey Mo is on the list of one of the best Korean Fried Chicken in town but since I'm rooting so hard for BBQ chicken lol, I just havent make my way here yet until recently Ordered the KJ thigh nuggets and chicken sandwich. Pros: All their chicken is fried fresh, oil doesnt taste old, chicken is moist and juicy inside. Chicken sandwich has a homemade Thousand -like sauce that I like. Cons: Their fried chicken sauces options are limited and taste more or less the same (The sweet sauce is very similar to Donkey Mo, just not spicy) Also I feel like their chicken taste a bit bland, more like American style fried chicken than Korean imo. Anyway, it was overall good. Place is nice and clean, good for a casual meal. We didnt have to wait on Thursday night but it got more crowded around 8:30pm. read more

Donkey Mo’s - 12 KJ Thigh Nugget and Chicken Sandwich - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

The chicken here is pretty good and crispy. The sweet and sour spicy sauce is very manageable while the 7/10 donkey sauce was very spicy. The bone in wings are quite large. Fries and coleslaw was average. They ran out of cream corn, I really wanted to try that. Prices here are a bit above average especially at $7 a beer for an order at the counter type place. The employees here are very on top of cleaning. Especially when a mom decided to change her baby right on top of a table in front of another table that's eating.... The employees wiped it down right away. I would like to try the nuggets next time. read more

Donkey Mo’s - shrimp basket - we really enjoyed our meal especially the corn - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Lunch today took me to Donkey Mo's, and listen--those six wings were locked in. Fried just right: shatter-crisp on the outside, still juicy where it counts. And here's the real flex--the chicken had flavor before the sauce showed up. You know how some wings are basically sauce delivery systems? Not these. The meat spoke for itself. Now, if I'm being honest (and I always am), my palate would've loved a little more garlic and black pepper in the seasoning. And while the sweet & spicy sauce was tasty, the "spicy" part was whispering when I prefer it to holler. I'd absolutely ask them to turn that heat up a notch next time. Still--very good eating. The onion rings were dialed in too--whole rings, light crunch, no grease hangover. Clean bite, clean finish. And that cold Dr. Pepper? Baby, it tied the whole plate together like a good chorus. Service was smooth: friendly cashier, kitchen crew locked into their rhythm, place clean and easy to find. Parking might be better on the other side of the building, but nothing that'll stop the mission. And let me tell you what's already calling my name for the return trip: chicken thigh nuggets. A nugget... made from thigh meat? Say less. Add sweet potato fries to the lineup and I'm sold. Bottom line: I'd definitely go back. Highly recommend you give this spot a try--at least once, y'all. Some places surprise you quietly. This one earns a second verse. read more

Solid spot for Korean fried chicken! I'd say this spot is more of a 4.4/5. The 10-piece jumbo wings and an item from the snacks portion of the menu is the perfect amount of food for two people. The holy donkey sauce was the perfect amount of spiciness, which I'd rate as a 5/10 spice level--not too spicy if you're a spice lover like me. The classic soy garlic was also delicious! The wings themselves were so juicy and perfectly tender, with the breading crunchy and even. The shishito peppers were freshly blistered--they could've used a bit more cooking (personal preference), but the seasoning was just right. You also get a very generous amount of peppers for the price. Order at the counter, and pick a spot at one of the many tables. Your name will be called when the order is ready. Ambiance is causal but the decor/music is vibey. read more

Beer, korean fried chicken, fried sides. All perfect after a long day of work. This place is pretty solid compared to the other korean chicken places in Austin. The 6-piece wing combo is more than enough for a person and there are a lot great sides like the fried pickles and sweet potato fries that are perfect complements to the crispy chicken. It's definitely on the heavier side but I know what I'm getting into when I come here. The workers are helpful even though it's not a full-service establishment which I appreciate. I'm also a fan of the decor and R&B vibe. The spiciness isn't too crazy unless you had the chili flake rub which elevates the taste. The only thing I wasn't a fan of was the bacon kimchi fries but I'm generally not a fan of loaded fries anyway since all the ones in the middle and the bottom become soggy. read more

Damn good giant wings! Rings were ok. We got the dry rub with sauce on the side. Great service. I think it gets real busy at lunch. read more

Decided to try this place instead of going to BBQ chicken, and tbh I kinda prefer it over Donkey Mo's! The wings are big but the batter felt quite greasy. We got the holy donkey sauce and sweet and spicy. Holy donkey was actually pretty spicy, but not that much flavor besides that. Sweet and spicy was pretty decent! We also got the tteokbokki and it was...unique? The tteok was fried and it was topped with gochugang sauce, ranch (???), and fried onion. It was very different than traditional tteokbokki. We had a hard time deciding if we liked it or not lol. read more

Donkey Mo’s - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

We've been waiting for another Korean Fried Chicken spot to open up since there aren't many options in the area, and this one did not disappoint. It's a bit tucked away and not surrounded by many other restaurants, but it's absolutely worth the trip. We ordered the 6 jumbo tenders with both the sweet and spicy and soy garlic sauces. Both were packed with flavor and delicious. We also tried the rice cakes; they weren't super authentic, but still really tasty. Prices were reasonable, which was a nice bonus. The vibe is somewhere between quick-serve and sit-down, and the person at the counter was super friendly and helpful. If your only experience with Korean Fried Chicken is BBQ Chicken, this place is a must-try. Highly recommended. read more

Donkey Mo’s - 6 Wings, Spicy Fried Rice Cake - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

This place is ok but I was hoping it would be better. The menu is limited. I ordered a chicken sandwich and the bacon & kimchi fries. The chicken sandwich, though it comes with "a special sauce," is nothing special. And the special sauce is just 1000 island dressing. Borrrring. The sandwich was not good. It was devoid of any flavor. Apparently what makes it "Korean style" is that it's fried twice; it's not because of any special seasonings or flavorings. I won't order it again. The bacon & kimchi fries were extraordinary! Highly recommended. I will order them again next time I'm in the area. I don't live in Austin, so it could be a while. I just stopped there today and I have already recommended the fries to a coworker. read more

I was too broke to tip so here's the next best thing. Honestly 11/10 We had the chicken dumplings we loved that they came sauced up We also had the chicken nuggets and with sweet and sour sauce , the crunch and the flavor it's just like picture Had a side of onion rings they were good nothing crazy. read more

There was a short wait and a simple menu. I ordered the soy garlic chicken wings with sweet and spicy sauce on the side. The chicken was crispy and the sauce was the perfect mix of salty and savory. The spicy sauce on the side was the perfect addition. There's not that much seating so I wouldn't come here during rush hour with a big group. This place is definitely worth going to if you are craving Korean chicken wings. read more

I came in with a couple friends and overall felt it was good Korean fried chicken. You can choose two different sauces for the 10 piece wings or 20 piece nuggets, so I had the wings in soy garlic and sweet and spicy. My friend got the nuggets and it seemed like way more than 20 pieces so I think that was really worth it. The breading is super crispy despite the drizzle of sauces. The sweet and spicy was surprisingly not very spicy at all but flavorful. Of the sides, we tried the corn and the cole slaw. The corn was sweet but kind of plain and I liked the slaw but felt the portion was a bit small. One thing missing is Korean friend chicken places often give pickled radish with an order of fried chicken which they don't give here. Service was friendly enough and the seating area is nice. There aren't any condiments to self serve though. read more

THE BIG: Located in North Loop and in a small quaint shop. Very industrial inside and functional. Few seats inside and a bar. Plenty of parking available in the lot. THE BLACK AND WHITE: Honestly, one of the best Korean fried chicken spots in Austin. Ordering is simple at the front, you grab your number and sit down or take out. We got the 6pc KFC soy garlic wings boned. They have thigh nuggets, however I'm more boned in guy. I think it's juicier. We weren't able to do half and half on the 6 pc however, the 10 pc, you can do half and half with other sauces. That'll be the move next time. The wings when they came out was nice and hot. They were also big and plump with great flavors! THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall for a 6 pieces KFC soy garlic wing it was around $18. Very delicious and I'll definitely be back to try some other stuff on their menu. read more

Both the bone in wings and thigh nuggets were crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside. The portions were pretty large. We tried the buffalo, soy garlic and donkey sauce. The soy garlic was a perfect balance of savory and sweet. Basically not too sweet and tasty. The other two sauces were fine but I'm not a fan of those types anyway so don't take my word on those. We also tried the shishito peppers which were good but the husband got one that lit him up so be careful! Overall a 10/10. We will be back and definitely recommend if you like Korean fried chicken. Oh and the girls working there were nice too! read more

Donkey Mo’s - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

The Korean fried chicken here is so delicious! My friend and I each got the 6 jumbo wings - Sweet and Spicy and Holy Donkey (spiciest). The Holy Donkey was spicy but it wasn't overbearingly spicy, but everyone's spice tolerance differs. But the wings were really crispy, and sauces were really delicious! Also, the sides, especially the sweet potato fries, were really good too! I kept eating the sweet potato fries haha. Service was relatively quick, and even though it's a small space, there are a number of tables to sit at. I liked the low lighting, especially during dinner time. I guess it gave cool vibes. Restrooms are clean too btw. TLDR: Donkey Mo has very good sides and fried chicken. I would highly recommend! read more

They know how to fry things really well. Onions rings and chicken were soooo incredibly crunchy. The onions rings come with ranch and you can add more ranch for 50 cents but I recommend you don't because the ranch tastes like it's gone bad. We got the 20 thigh nuggets with the soy garlic and the donkeys mo's spicy sauce on the side of naked ones. The soy garlic was sweet and kinda lacked the garlic flavor but it was solid dipped into the spicy sauce. The spicy sauce was okay spice wise and I liked that I could dip and control how much I was getting but the chicken kinda lacked some flavor/the sauce didn't really have much flavor. It was acidic like tabasco kinda. I wish they had a couple more sauce options. Creamed corn is delectable. Overall good price for the food and I'd like to try the french fries and the churros next time. read more

I remember when Donkey Mo's was just a small shop at the Hmart in Lakeline, but now they finally have a long awaited dedicated store. They've come a long way and the proof is in the chicken. Certainly one of the better fried chicken places I've tried. Atmosphere: Smaller brick and mortar type shop. With plenty of Donkey Mo centric theming, fried chicken and donkeys. Food: I came with a friend and pretty much any chicken centric item is going to be the top winners here. From chicken wings and or chicken thigh nuggets. All chicken comes out crispy and their original sweet and spicy is a delectable balance between the two flavors. Bonus that the wings come out reasonably sized for the price, bring on the juicy. Service: Really great service, counter top style but the workers there when I went were very friendly and accommodating. Highly recommend Donkey Mo's if you're in the mood or cravings for korean fried chicken. Can't go wrong. read more

Donkey Mo’s - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

4.5 stars I was pleasantly surprised by Donkey Mo's, and it's safe to say this spot will definitely be part of our rotation when Korean fried chicken cravings hit. Parking had me a little nervous at first, but we found plenty of spaces behind the thrift store next door, super convenient once you know where to look. We started with the spicy rice cakes (tteokbokki), and my boyfriend (who is Korean) and I were both surprised and impressed. Instead of the traditional soft and chewy texture, each rice cake was lightly fried to perfection, giving it a slightly crispy bite. The sauce was the perfect balance 50/50 spicy and sweet. Honestly, these alone are worth coming back for. For the chicken, we tried the garlic soy and sweet & spicy flavors. The garlic soy sauce was a bit thinner than expected and didn't stick to the chicken as much as we'd like, but the flavor was spot on. The sweet & spicy sauce, though, really hit the mark and will definitely be a go-to next time. Regardless of the sauce, the crispiness of the chicken was next-level, easily among the best we've had in Austin. The space itself is clean, minimal, and has a trendy, modern vibe. When we visited, there was just one staff member working the front, but she was super helpful, especially for first-timers, and kept everything running smoothly. All in all, Donkey Mo's is a solid choice for Korean fried chicken lovers. Great flavors, perfectly fried chicken, and a welcoming vibe, we're already looking forward to our next visit! read more

On our way to Kome, I saw the sign for Donkey Mo's and immediately said "korean fried chicken sounds amazing!" we made a quick pivot and changed plans to try this new place out. You order/pick up food at the counter. Dining space is small, but still has ample seating. The menu had just enough variety (not just friend chicken) without being overwhelming when staring at the massive screen menus. You can either order ahead, at the kiosk, or with an employee. At a glance, prices all seemed reasonable. But when our food arrived the value went WAY up. The servings are HUGE. Biggest wings and tenders I've ever seen. We couldn't stop commenting on how massive the portions were. For being Korean wings, I preferred it to be a bit more oily. Sounds crazy, but they had a thick breaded coating and lots of meat. A little grease would've been helpful. My husband added the buffalo sauce (6/10 heat) and I did the sweet and spicy (3/10). I didn't care for mine. A sauce was needed for the wings but I would opt for the soy one instead. My husband said he was glad he got the buffalo on the side to control the heat. It packed a punch and was full of flavor. We also got the kimchi bacon fries. Wow! It was loaded up and was very sweet forward. For kimchi, I was expecting a ton more heat but at least the ingredients were fresh and didn't make the fries soggy. On Yelp, I saw they had soft serve but it looks like they took it off the menu. Bummer. But we did try the churros. I wouldn't get them again. They were pretty tough, but the condensed milk + cinnamon was a yummy twist on basic churros. Small parking lot that's kind of tricky to get in/out of due to construction and some pot holes, but still convenient. I hope this place does well! Fair prices, friendly service, and generous servings! read more

Decided to finally cave and try out the chicken at Donkey MO's! Got the order to go with both the sweet and spicy sauce and the holy donkey. The sweet and spicy sauce visually is thicker than the holy donkey and definitely more up my alley. Pick up was really quick and easy. The chicken is nice and crisp-- much more than I woulda thought! I saw pictures that had sauces on the side so I was thinking I would have to manually add it to the chicken (keeping the sauce on the side is a smart way to keep it crisp) but the chicken was still really crispy with the sauce on!! All in all, would love to try this place again. Wanted to dock a point just because there was no distinguishing between the two sauces (I know it's nitpicking-- they even separated it) read more

Donkey Mo’s - 10 Wings - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

Hands down the BEST Korean fried chicken in the city!!!!!! We were the huge fan when they were in Hmart and the food court at Lakeline Mall. When they closed both locations, we were devastated! After 3 years of holding hope and dream that one day they will reopen again, it finally came true!!!! There are a lot of Korean fried chicken places popping up in Austin but nothing is as great as Donkey Mo's. The wings surely live up to its names - jumbo wings. KJ bites are more like 2 bites in one piece. The portion is great and pricing is reasonable! The chicken is fried to perfection - crumbly and crispy on the outside but tender and juicy inside. The coating here is very light and crumbly, which makes Donkey Mo's so unique and delicious. You can ask for a complimentary small pickled radish for each order. They also have a larger container of pickled radish for purchase. Sweet & spicy and soy garlic are my favorites!! Please don't make me pick one because they're like my children. I normally rotate the sauce - get soy garlic this time and sweet and spicy next time. They also have sweet & sour sauce which is homemade and accommodates for folks who don't like the garlicky taste in soy garlic and cannot handle any heat (even mild) in sweet & spicy. They also have Holy Donkey which I tried when they were at Hmart 3 years ago and it was spicyyyy. If you just like a nice little kick, go for sweet & spicy. They also have other side dishes like onion rings, fries, sweet potato fries, fried dumplings, shishito peppers, etc. There are beer, soda, etc. The restaurant is clean. Great spot for a casual date or a gathering with friends and family over a delicious meal. One of the owners - Charlie is very friendly and has genuine care for his customers. If you're in the area, be sure to stop by and try it. Donkey Mo's will definitely change your perception about fried chicken. If you're not in the area, make a trip here. Thank you, Donkey Mo's, for making my heart and tummy happy every single time! read more

This is basically a small neighborhood restaurant where it's probably better to get it to go than to dine in. There's only eight tables and 4 stools to sit at. There's no table service here, you order at the counter and wait for your name to be called. Yes the tip screen will be waiting for you after you place your own order and busing your own table. I played it safe by getting the chicken sandwich and fries. They do have 8 sides to choose from and I have to admit the fries are somewhat disappointing since they are clearly previously frozen. The chicken sandwich was good and I appreciated the fresh lettuce, but there was really nothing about it that stood out flavor wise. It definitely could've used a slice or two of tomato and perhaps a slice of pepper jack cheese to help it pop. They do offer draft and bottled beer along with fountain drinks. It seems they better shine with their wings and tenders. I'll try those items next time, but I'll probably get it to go. 31/2* read more

Yum Korean fried chicken in Austin! Donkey Mo's is small but the chicken packs a punch. Located in airport, the restaurant has a few seats inside and plenty of parking outside. You order and the counter and wait for your name to be calls. By husband and I shared 6 wings in soy garlic. The chicken was crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside. Pretty good for Austin. Next time I'll try the sides and another flavor. read more

Donkey Mo’s - Korean Near Me - Austin, Texas

It was my brother's bday and he wanted to check this place out. I'm sure glad we did. It's a small place so be prepared for a wait if you come at a busy time of day. You order at the counter and they will call you for pick up of food and drinks. Speaking of drinks, they have beer (several on tap) but no wine- which is a bummer. :( We ordered the perfect amount of food for four people and for the table- we couldn't have fit one more tray! ;) We ordered wings, tenders, shishito peppers, and pickles. We asked for the sauce on the side so we could try them all on what we wanted to eat. The sauces were all on the sweet side. Even the hot sauce was a bit sweet. The garlic soy was a bit watery. I wish it had been thicker to stick to the chicken. It was our least favorite sauce. The tenders were huge and super crunchy. The wings looked great too. Everything we had was delicious. It was a revolving door and the place had a constant line of customers. It's certainly a well loved neighborhood joint. If I lived near here, I would definitely be a regular and just order take out. It's tough finding a table when it's busy. Be careful as you walk towards the bathroom/get a to go box. There's a ramp up to the bathroom which leaves a small raised section of concrete. I tripped on it and I watched another girl trip on it as well. It needs some brightly colored tape or paint for a visual before someone gets hurt on it. read more

Been missing Korean fried chicken ever since I moved from SoCal and this place hit it on the spot! Ordered a 10 piece with soy garlic and sweet and spicy. I hate when wings are overly sauced and they were not! The soy garlic was super umami and savory and the sweet and spicy was the right spice level for me! The wings were huge and juicy and the skin was nice and crispy and not overly floured. Small spot but I ordered for take out. By the time I got there under 10 mins, the food was ready to go! Great service and great food! read more

I have been seeing so much about Donkey Mo's so I've been so excited to try them out! I was able to try all of the flavors and hands down, soy garlic was my favorite by far. We got takeout, so when we ended up eating it, the skin had gotten a little soggy. But I'm sure that if you ate it right away, it would have been a lot crispier. These wings, although Korean styled fried chicken, reminded me of American wings because it seemed like they were fried with the skin whereas I feel like other Korean fried chicken doesn't really have the skin and is just batter so it was a good medium between the two. I also really like that they give you a good amount of sauce so you can really dip your wings into it. read more

This ranks 3rd for KFC on my list. I'm glad there's a KFC place in the neighborhood that is so close I can walk to it. I ordered the 6pc to-go with the sauce on the side. 6-pc is allot of chicken since these aren't little pieces you find at wing shops in town. The breading was, ok. Not really flavorful and it looked a little over cooked. The sauce not really enough maybe I made a bad decision getting it on the side. I got the pickled radish which is my favorite to munch on with KFC. You can't go wrong with this side. The deep fried pickles were ok but I don't remember much about this so I would say it's just ok. I guess I'll try them for in store dining and with the sauce next to see if it's any better. read more

I have tried Donkey Mo's at the H-Mart location and didn't have the best first experience there (undercooked chicken). I decided to give it a second try after hearing good things about their new brick & mortar location. Parking is not hard to find, a narrow strip in front of the storefront but there is more on the side. What is a bummer is that there is more parking spots than seating inside! I did not like their ordering system. Seating is first come first serve. Seating is very limited, roughly 10 tables and you bet they will be busy during rush hour. It is best if you find a table and then stand in line to order. The wings and tenders were very crispy and both had a nice crunchy layer to them but it wasn't jiving with the sauces. The garlic soy was on the watery side and could have been thicker to cling to the tenders. The sweet and spicy had nice flavoring but the wings weren't tossed in the sauce, more like poured on. The fries were very under seasoned! If I do return, I hope they do improve on execution. I still prefer BBQ Korean wings and Hi-wings IMO. read more

3 years of wait since the HMart location closed down. And it was so darn worth it!! Donkey Mo's is on the top of my list for Korean Fried Chicken! Food: Yummy and plenty. Their chicken is crunchy but still very juicy inside. Different from other places where the coating is thick, at Donkey Mo's, it is crumbly which makes it fun to eat and not overwhelming. Portion is HUGE. When they said Jumbo wings, they mean it!! KJ Thigh pieces are also huge. So, personally 12pc KJ and 6 pc Wings are good portion for me. Very filling and very reasonable prices for the amount of food. Very generous with the sauce. My favs are Soy Garlic and Sweet and Spicy. If you order 10pc Wings, you can have 2 options for sauces. Price: Very affordable considering the huge amount of food you get. You go up to counter, order, and choose your seat. When the food is done, they will call out for you to get them. The staff is really nice! They would clean up for you after you eat. Quite limited seating, so if you have a huge group of 15-20, it may be challenging to fit all! For people who haven't had Donkey Mo's before, I'm sure you will love it! For people who have known about it since HMart, iykyk!!! Same amazing taste like it was! read more

Gimme some Mo, Korean Fried Chicken. Been waiting for this spot to open up for a while. Koreans make some of the best fried chicken in the world and these folks didn't disappoint. The tenders were thicc and crispy. The wings were meaty and the sauces were on point. Next time I want to try their KJ bites which are basically dark meat, elevated mini nuggets. There's a small parking lot out front and the interior has enough space for 20+ diners. They also have several beers on tap to wash down the fried goodness. P.S. Please add rice to the menu. read more

Their soy garlic sauce is exactly that-- the perfect combo of soy sauce and garlic, thicker consistency, not too overwhelming. The type of sauce I'd like to buy in bulk! Holy donkey sauce is just the right amount of spice for me, a spice wimp. Sweet & sour sauce was also good. And the chicken!!! We got 10 wings and the KJ thigh nuggets. Crunchy outside, moist inside.
