Nothing against Waikiki Chicken in Paradise, but I'm not going to lie - I had no idea the mini food…read moretruck park they're located in even existed, let alone had them on my list of bookmarks. However, after having to abandon our original dinner plans, we were no less intrigued after randomly stumbling across this place. While they may not have been our first choice for dinner, coming here was far more appealing than eating fast food or at the nearby IHOP! Although seeing so many folks at this mini food truck park may have been what caught our attention, it was the boxes of fried chicken on nearly every table that swayed us to try Waikiki Chicken in Paradise in particular. After skimming the menu, it wasn't hard to see why they were such a popular choice - everything on it sounded great. Granted, that's not overly difficult when there are only eight items to choose from, but tough to argue with the likes of fried chicken loco moco, fried chicken curry rice, fried chicken sandwiches, chicken & croffle, and fish & chips! Since we saw how big the portion were and didn't want anything too heavy (read: sadly, no loco moco or Japanese curry), we opted to split a FRIED CHICKEN RICE PLATE ($16.95) which came with a Fried Chicken Cutlet over White Rice with Mac Salad & Green Salad. Funny enough, despite already having a sense of how much food they give, I was still surprised by the generous portion size. As for how it all tasted, this was great. The breading on the chicken reminded me of Popeye's (though, without the spice), the batter was crispy, and the chicken itself was rather moist. As for the sides, the mac salad was pretty good, but the salad was a little heavy on dressing. If there was one thing I could change about our order, I think I'd want to see how it would taste with a sauce or glaze. At the very least, I'd definitely go with a different dipping sauce, like their Pineapple Ginger, Lilikoi Mayo, or Guava BBQ, as the Honey Mustard we went with tasted a bit generic. Of course, we could've solved both problems if we had gone with the Fried Chicken Loco Moco or Fried Chicken Curry Rice instead! I guess I'll just have to wait until the next time I'm in Waikiki!

I quite like the new owners of this Korean fried chicken shop! Where Good Chicken once was is now E…read moreChicken, which is run by a sweet Korean couple. Be sure to call ahead, it usually takes ~30 min per order if you call. Takeout only. Service is very polite. Parking is tough because of the area but there are a few spots out front, would generally recommend calling ahead so parking is less stressful. Their menu was a little confusing to me so here is some explanation: K pop chicken- boneless chicken pieces K chicken wings- flats and drumettes (the two parts of a larger chicken wing) K chicken tenders- boneless tenders only K crispy chicken- full wings, thighs, and breast pieces They offer each of these items as a plate lunch too, with a smaller portion of chicken that comes with rice and salad. I personally like the K chicken wings for the variety and higher meat to skin ratio but my husband really likes the K chicken wings. The skin is shatteringly crispy and flavorful and the meat is juicy. Their honey shoyu sauce is the perfect balance of sweet and salty. You can also request the sauce on the side. I've also had the fried rice which was decent and generously portioned. We once had a complimentary house salad given to us which was unexpected kindness. Overall they do a great job serving up a delicious craveable food that keeps us coming back!

I ordered the K-Crispy Chicken "Whole Pieces" and really got ripped off…read more Out of the 10 Piece box, only 3 pieces, 1 leg, 2 wings were complete pieces. They actually cut in half 5 pieces of the Chicken Backs and each 1/2 counted as a piece of overcooked chicken jerky! I also got a 1/3 of a breast section with bones and not even a 1/2 of a thigh. That totals my 10 pieces. More bones and excess crispy flour then consumable meat. NOBODY gives a Chicken back (or 1/2 a back)! Not Popeyes, not KFC or Zippy's who will remain my Favorite because I will only get ripped off the 1st time, never again. Additionally, they make you buy the sauce, the reason is due to no seasoning on the over floured bread...but it IS Crispy! The Chicken tenders were overcooked and REALLY Chewy around the edges. Just a LOT of breaded Crispy with no flavor, what "Chef" doesn't even use salt? Really, if you're going to risk testing this food, PAY for some sauce! I hope the Owner reads this and realizes that ripping people off by selling broken pieces that most Chef's throw away because they have so little meat on them, isn't going to keep him in business. The profit margin may be up while folks are trying it, spending their hard earn $$$'s, yet not coming back will be the ultimate demise of this business as many other have come and gone doing the exact same thing, not putting themselves in he patron's position. Ask yourself this: When was the last time you saw a bowl of whole chicken pieces and immediately grabbed one that was back bone chopped in half?

When you're always on the hunt for great fried chicken, you can't really pass up a place literally called "Good Chicken" and they definitely lived up to the name! The establishment is cute and cozy with tables available for dine-in. As soon as we walked up, we were kindly greeted and a table was set up for us immediately. After getting settled into our hotel, we were starving, and everything on the menu looked incredible. We ended up ordering the Garlic Chili and the Honey Shoyu chicken. It was exactly what you want when you're craving KFC. The sauces were spot on, chicken had a perfect crunch in every bite and the meat was incredibly tender. To make our dinner feel like a complete, we also added a few other items to the table. We had the pork mandoo and loved that it was clearly homemade, you could really taste the difference. Those extra sides were the perfect finishing touch to the feast. To be honest, if it weren't for this staycation, we probably wouldn't have headed into this part of Waikiki, but I'm so glad we did. Next time we stay in the area, this will definitely be on our list of places to repeat. If you are in the Waikiki area and looking for delicious Korean Fried Chicken (and a Kama'aina discount!), look no further.

My favorite is the garlic chili chicken wings plate lunch. The rice is just right - not too much and cooked just right. It comes with a healthy green salad. I did try their kalbi plate and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was - soft, tasty, thin, easy to eat. This is my go-to place for potlucks - I order the 20 piece garlic chili chicken wing pan. But, like I said, the location - in Waikiki - is not great. I park at the Ross parking lot across the street for 2 hours validated parking (buy a 99¢ shopping bag and get the stamp) and walk over. One day I was running late, it was a Tuesday (senior discount day at Ross), parking was not existant so I had to wait and wait. When I told Jay (the owner) about it, he said that next time I can just call and they can bring the food up to my car on the street. Next time for sure!

The duality of the place is exceptional because you can get customized malatang with all the add ins you could want but also a whole chicken, shrimp burger, and even chicken feet. One of my biggest pro tips is getting their spicy chicken rolls for the plane when traveling. It's super compact, can last overnight, and is flavorful without having a strong smell. I'm also a big big fan of the spicy chicken sandwich which is pretty simple with just lettuce added on but so good. Don't miss out on the popcorn chicken either.

It feels like many of the high reviews are from fans excited to dine in the same place BTS once sat. As for us, the food was pretty mid and the service wasn't very warm. It was also difficult to get anyone's attention. When we first walked in, it almost seemed like they assumed we were ordering takeout, as if dining in was an inconvenience. After we finished eating, we sat there for quite a while before being told to pay up front at the small window. We ordered the meat jun, which came with rice and banchan. It was overly oily and didn't have much meat. I had the soy garlic fried chicken, and again, the batter tasted greasy. There was even an extra charge for pickled radish, which is usually complimentary with Korean fried chicken. Overall, the staff seemed slow and unenthusiastic, and the experience just didn't leave a good impression. I wouldn't recommend it.

Confession time, we were introduced to Jollibee's at a kids birthday party. Before that, never…read morereally thought twice about going to Jollibee. The first time we went to the drive through, we ordered the 2 piece Chicken joy meal, which includes 2 pieces of chicken, a side, a drink, and a fruit pie. Hubs wanted the spicy, and I opted for the spicy chicken sandwich. We got home, and his face fell flat because they did not give him the spicy chicken. They also did not give him the fruit pie. Next visit, I ordered the Chicken joy meal, 1-2pcs regular, and 1-2pcs spicy with mash potato and cole slaw. We got what we ordered, yeah! So far a 50/50 chance of a successful order. Fast forward a week to hitting up Jollibee on a Sunday. I'm not sure if it was because it was the weekend, or if we got there when they just opened, but ordered the Chicken joy meal x2, one spicy one regular. Hubs wanted their cole slaw, the cashier said there wasn't any available. Got to the window, and my husband says, did you get the pie included? We wanted 2 ube. She gives us the total and it was $26.07. I looked at him funny, because the meal is $13. There should've been much more for the taxes. Hubs asks about the pies and the cashier says, "ok, that will be $7". Hubs had no time for this, and asked for the manager because there was some communication issues, as the pie is included in the meal deal. The manager comes in, fixes the order (cashier input it as a 2 piece meal--no joy in that). They ask us to pull forward to wait for our order. The line started gettting longer, and more people were waiting for their orders in the parking lot. After a painful 10 minute wait, I hopped out of the truck and headed to the counter. One of their workers was running a bag out, so I asked if that was ours, and she said no. Headed to the counter and handed the cashier my receipt, and told her we have been waiting for nearly 10 minutes. She checked the bag on the counter and apologized because they were waiting for the gravy. (insert head blown emoji). I checked for the pies, and headed out to hubs. I should've checked the chicken, because they failed to give the spicy one. gah! Maybe we have to go in the store to get the order right? The chicken is delicious, the ube pie is amazing. It's the service at this drive through that has got me less than joyful. But I am a glutton for punishment because I will probably go back because it is that good.
