My wife and I were looking for a pizza spot to grab takeout during the kids' spring break and…read morewanted to try something different from our usual go-to, Papa John's. That's when we came across Cup N Char and noticed they offered Detroit-style pizza--something neither of us had tried before. We stopped by to order in person, and right away the staff made a great impression. Everyone was friendly and helpful, and the restaurant itself was very clean. There were also a few groups dining in, which gave the place a nice, welcoming vibe. Since we wanted to try a variety, the staff recommended ordering a half-and-half medium pizza, which turned out to be the perfect suggestion. We went with half Italian Mob (pepperoni, onions, banana peppers, and sausage) and half Grassy Chicken (chicken, onions, and banana peppers). Both sides were flavorful, with the Detroit-style crust really standing out--crispy on the edges and soft inside. We also ordered the chicken wings with the original hot sauce, and those were a great addition. The flavor was rich and buttery--definitely a must-have alongside the pizza. Overall, the portions were generous, and we loved being able to mix and match flavors. This is a spot we'll definitely be coming back to for takeout pizza and wings.

Why 4 stars? Because I enjoyed this Detroit-lite pizza…read more --- --- --- I am a big fan of Detroit style pizza, but Cup N Char is kind of its own thing. It's not cut into squares like traditional Detroit pizza and it's not quite as over-the-top thick. It's more like a slightly thicker than normal crust with charred edges. When I first arrived, my brother and his friend had been there for a bit and already had a couple of pizzas. I nabbed a slice of each and thought both were perfectly fine, but not really remarkable. In fairness, they had been sitting out for about 20 minutes at that point. I then ordered a supreme for me and my friend to share. At first, I had kind of a similar outlook as the slices I'd tried earlier: just okay. But as I kept eating, it really grew on me and I enjoyed it. The table shared some pizza rolls and some fries, which I snacked off of and enjoyed. Overall, I wish this place wasn't so far from my house because I'd love to try it again, but it was a good experience for our group overall.

We ordered the 10 piece wings in hot honey and spicy soy, per recommendation of the manager/owner. The wings were really big and so flavorful! There was a good kick to the spicy soy and both were wet sauces. The wings took about 17 mins to make, but were well worth the wait. I would definitely order both flavors again, but really liked the hot honey the best. You could hear the crisp of the wings each time you took a bite. We aren't near here but the drive back would be worth it! The owner/manager checked up on us while we ate and there lots of people coming through for to-go orders as well. Cant wait to come back for more!

Very disappointed with my experience at CM Chicken. I was pretty excited to try this place in Texas…read moregiven that I have tried other locations across the country. When we first entered, the smell of the restaurant was not pleasant, something like dirty water being used to clean the place. We went to the cashier to place our order and felt that he was not well versed with the menu and was confused with what we were trying to order. We ended up getting the 10 tenders, half w/ garlic spicy with snow sauce, and the other half w/ soy garlic. Lastly, we ordered the rose tteokbokki. The rose tteokbokki was sad. When it came out, the tteokbokki pieces were the smallest rice cakes I have ever been served in a restaurant and there was very little of it. Tasting it, I could tell that it was prepackaged rose tteokbokki that was most likely microwaved prepared. Many of the rice cakes were undercooked. The curry sauce tasted sour, borderline rancid. Keeping in mind that I have tried other CM Chicken's, this did not taste on brand. The spicy garlic sauce was fine. We brought it up to the management telling them of our concerns with the tteokbokki being undercooked and the curry sauce tasting sour. They offered to re-prepare the rose tteokbokki and the curry sauce chicken but we opted to just change to garlic soy. When the rose tteokbokki came out for a second time, it was definitely overdone in the microwave. The rice cakes were dried out, leathery, and overdone. For $14, it was the tiniest serving I have ever seen from a Korean restaurant, and we could've gone to hmart and gotten a better version for less. The garlic soy sauce was okay, but tasted watered down/diluted compared to what I've had before at other chains. My friends and I were very disappointed with CM chicken at Richmond, and definitely won't be coming back.

We ordered Beef Suya (steak) with jollof rice (2), oxtails with rice (1), crawfish & turkey wings with plantains (1). Everything is made to order so it's always hot. Service was fast, around 25 min, for a lot of food. The menu has been updated since my last review. Previously the sides were a la carte but now each meal includes a side. It was delicious!!! Wow. This is really one of my favorite spots. Everything was seasoned to a tee, everyone loved the food, I literally don't have one complaint. No exaggeration. The ambiance is still the same; clean, casual, not loud but not super quiet. TV's going for background noise and just an overall chill spot. More food options now though. You've gotta check it out.

We got the whole chicken ($30) with two sides (it's hilarious that these are called sides, it's just a small thing of pickled radish and pre-made cole slaw). We picked the soy garlic and sweet and spicy flavors; they're a little bit sweet but decent flavors. The chicken was cooked well and tender and the batter was crispy. The restaurant was completely empty besides us and it doesn't feel very Korean anymore. Service was quite minimal but it was fine for a sit down meal. Now with more Korean options in town than when Hoodadak first opened, the flavors here doesn't quite stand out amongst the crowd anymore.

(Combo meal). They told me it was going to take a few mins so after I paid, I told them I'll go park and come inside. There were people behind me and I didn't want to hold people up. After parking and going inside. I didn't have my cup to get a drink yet so I was waiting at the front just... kind of watching the staff. I think two of the three, including the one who was at the window and took my order, must of been on break because they literally did not do much but stare back at me and the food/drink they were eating/drinking. The manger was running back and forth. After he gave me my bag, it was just the biscuit sandwich. So I asked "where was the side? " . He passed me the side, then I asked" where do I get a cup for drinks?" The manager didn't realize I never had the cup because he thought the staff member at the window gave me my cup. In the bag, there was no napkin or spoon for the side. Or maybe I just didn't see them next to the soda machine because I was getting annoyed at this point and just wanted to leave. As for the food, barely any icing. The chicken was mid. The meat has a reddish tint to it like it's supposed to be a spicy chicken ? It was confusing to look at. The biscuit was slightly sweet and crusty along the edges (the best part of this whole thing). Mac and cheese was mid. The whole combo was overall mid. Admittedly, tables and chairs are clean. Lots of space. They have an outdoor area too. They have a small window in the kitchen area where you can watch them make the dough. Free parking out front. I would take out the ai in the drive through. I did not like it at all. If I have to wait for a bit, it would be good if they have a spot I can go to while they take care of the customers behind me and I'm not holding up the line for 5 minutes.

We may go back and try their chicken since that's getting good reviews; however, the increased prices are a turn off. We took a star off for the wait and price.

That said, my go to order is the Soy Garlic and Honey Garlic Wings. They're crispy, juicy, not over sauced and cooked perfectly. I love the pickled radish though be forewarned if you're not used to them. They will stink but trust me. They taste better than they smell. One important note about Korean wings: since they're double-fried, the bones will break and splinter pretty easily so BE VERY CAREFUL about giving them to younger kids unmonitored. Other items I've tried and while good, not what I would drive here to get (especially with how expensive the wings are). Traditional Original: Reminds of me Hooters wings a little. A bit too plain for me and while they're good, the flavored wings are why I come here. Boneless wings - Tried a couple and while they're good, not worth the price. But we do get these for the younger kiddoes. Secret sauce wings: I'd skip these. Flavor isn't bad, but way over-sauced and the wings are borderline soggy. Needless to say, they don't have the same crisp the Soy Garlic and Honey Garlic wings have.

What stood out the most to me was the flavor selection! I ordered the hawt honey and hot lemon pepper chicken tenders with curly fries, and my friends got the wings. All the chicken was perfectly crispy and well-coated with the sauce (which was so tasty). The curly fries were super crispy, too! My only complaint is that I should have added an extra ranch.

They've built a loyal and local following by making comfort food the centerpiece of their many talents (#2). When the food is as tasty as the customer service is friendly, it's hard not to love all they to offer. The shop is so small that seating is non-existent, (#3) thus it's strictly a takeout and delivery establishment. Their display case of hot foods changes throughout the day, depending on availability. Anything after the late afternoon is a huge gamble, so when in doubt, call ahead of time to confirm whether an item is available. I love to pop in just to get a good visual of my choices -- and I've always managed to walk out with something delicious. Of all the items I've tried, there have been standouts across the board. The oxtail, stewed chicken with gravy, smothered rib tips, meat loaf, and their über famous honey glazed wings and meatballs are fabulous. Their sides of dressing, sweet candied yams, mac and cheese, and fried green tomatoes make for a perfectly complete meal. Even the cornbread is outstanding, which is really saying something. I'd be remiss not to mention their incredibly underrated desserts. The peach cobbler is fire, pound cake and banana pudding are excellent, and their triple layered German-chocolate cake floored me. It was decadent, a tinge savory, and extremely addicting. The fact they offer catering for every item mentioned above means my future potlucks are going to be next level. When they're ready to open another location in a different part of town, I can only hope it'll be closer to me.
