DO NOT ORDER HERE. They are currently closed even though their Uber Eats and DoorDash accounts show that they're accepting orders. I heard that they're closed for summer break, but I also heard that they're close permanently. Regardless, if you place an order on an app, good luck getting that refund! It took me over an hour chatting with different Uber Eats customer service, escalating the issue, and I finally received the refund days later because I refused to let it go. The food itself was just okay, but my husband was a fan. I didn't think the fried chicken was anything remarkable. If you want decent Korean fried chicken, go the little spot inside Paloma food court. read more

I ordered the K-Crispy Chicken "Whole Pieces" and really got ripped off. 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? read more

This is a tiny little slit but don't let that fool you into thinking it won't make a big impact on your life!! They have tons of fried chicken options, all are fantastic you can't go wrong. I ordered the seafood pancake for the first time recently and it came out piping hot and loaded with veggies which is my favorite. It was chewy yet crispy, incredible. There is also convenient parking right out front which I miraculously managed to get even on a weekend day! read more

Not just chicken... It's a fact that we love KFC Korean Fried Chicken...we I do but after some decision and E Chicken Ward has been on my list it wasn't for the chicken but they also have traditional Korean food as well that I seriously didn't know they serve as well. Getting there is easy it's right on Kawaiahao Street and they do have dedicated stalls right in front of the restaurant but what's surprising is that there's no one really to greet you as you order your food using the provided kiosk and a ticket prints out. I can hear the kitchen started to prepare my food which was #22 Spicy Beef Soup (yukgaejang) as it's starting to get cooler at nights and it was a rainy day thinking that soup will give me the much needed energy was needed and it was quite affordable at $15.65 inclusive. What I didn't like is that there's no interaction or modification on the kiosk though I'm sure I could've shout it out just that it was all very impersonal getting home the sides was basically your typical local plate lunch of rice, Mac salad and tossed salad nothing Korean about it and the soup not as hot as I hoped (both temperature and heat) loved that it had basically no green onion (strange it's supposed to be more of it) few beef chunks but did love that it was filled with various veggies. I still love to have choices of barchan and would be nice if the soup was pipping hot and zero interaction is a strange vibe. Thanks! read more

I know people love KFC. I am not people...I do not like KFC. It's always too sweet. That's why I like this one...it is not sweet. Yes, the sauce on the side is, but the chicken itself has a nice simple flavor and doesn't even need sauce. Hubs drove for lunch...good cuz had construction and trucks and traffic and it's just too much for me sometimes. Called in the order. We got there fast but only waited maybe 5 min. Hubs got the wings plate. Yum. But previously he had green salad and today was mac...we prefer green usually. She didn't ask. If you bring the brochure and show it you can get a free soda with your plate. She didn't ask what he wanted so he got some purple prebiotic drink. I didn't want rice and salad so just got chicken. Comes in 15 or 30 piece I think. I got the "small" size and ate 2 piece with a salad I had from somewhere else. Yum. Take out and still yet stayed crispy. Batter is light and not too overpowering. Not super oily. Probs the only KFC I really enjoy. Obviously not the person to ask about KFC...but I do like fried chicken and it is good fried chicken. read more

Takeout lunch from Honolulu, Hawaii... A relatively new business, E Chicken Ward is located on Kawaiaha'o Street, close to the Ward Avenue intersection. Pass Aloha Tofu and the Climbing place and it's on the right side of the street when approaching from Ward Avenue. It's challenging to eat an entire order of fried chicken by oneself... so, I got my baby sister to help me! My sister likes chicken wings. I like boneless. That's why I got both. Original flavored wings and boneless Shoyu Honey chicken! We tried both and there were good things about each. Chicken was moist and tender with crispy outer layer! Of course, I liked boneless the best! I would get Shoyu Honey flavor again! I had ordered online, so pickup was quick and smooth with a friendly smile from the guy at the window! I had parked in an unmarked stall (I made my own space). Street parking is rare and all stalls in front of the shop were taken. I just ran over and grabbed my package quickly! =) read more

Craving chicken, I remembered a post from Nadine C. Thanks Nadine. Located on Kawaihao St,just Diamond Head of Ward avenue. Parking in front,but limited. Basically a grab and go. They have a take out pick up window facing the parking lot. Inside there is a order window and benches for waiting. I ordered the 10 piece Spicy Chicken. The chicken was crisp and flavorful. It wasn't as hot as I expected. My wife had the solf tofu stew. She liked it and I got to try some. I also gave it a thumbs up. I believe that this is a mom and pop venture. Courteous and very friendly. Enjoy read more

Name change but same great chicken and service. I usually do take out here. The chicken of course are very good - crispy, tender, and great selection of flavors - K pop is my go-to but the other ones are good as well. But the salad is a sleeper. Those of you considering it, give it a try. We'll continue to come back here! read more

I quite like the new owners of this Korean fried chicken shop! Where Good Chicken once was is now E Chicken, 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! read more

This hit the spot! I was looking for food around the area and this place popped up. I got the K-Chili Spicy Yangnyeom crispy chicken wings, tteokbokki and fries and they gave me a salad too so that was nice! The chicken wings were SO GOOD! Great flavor and they were still crunchy so that was great. They were sauced very well and every part was sauced, thank goodness! Surprisingly, the fries were REALLY good like the way they fried it and whatever it was coated in if anything. I was expecting just regular fries but these were so good! I like tteokbokki and theirs is good! Atmosphere - It's only a take out window so there's no outdoor seating. There are seats if you're waiting but that might be for the massage/spa place next to it. Service - They are friendly and fast! I called them to check if they were open since it was Labor Day and said I would call back with my order. Then they texted me and provided me with the online Clover link to order. SoI ordered online, walked over (5 - 10 minutes) and then it was ready. I added the fries when I got there because I missed it and the fries were worth it! Cost - $42 - $45. I got 10 spicy crispy chicken wings, fries, and tteokbokki. Seems the same as other places. Parking - They share the space with a massage/spa place so there are about 5 spots right in front of the place. If not then street parking which can be a bit hard. But order online and go when ready then you'll be good! Location - It's on Kawaiaha'o parallel to Queen Street, across the street from Hana Koa Brewing. It shares a space with a massage/spa place. I would definitely come here again to get everything I got! SO GOOD! read more

Three and a half stars. This used to be named good chicken. They opened another place in Waikiki then closed this location. I happened to check out Yelp and figured out that they reopened this place under a new name. The chicken isn't completely the same and feels a bit sweeter. I spoke to the sweet lady named Sunny who said she is the owner. She also told me that next week there will be a soft opening to another chicken place which will include Korean style pizza. The name will be Eat Pizza Chicken Boys and is located near Yogurstory. Good luck to them and hope to go there after the hype dies down. I ordered boneless chicken wings (two sauces, but received one), tteokbokki (delicious), and all came with a cute little salad. As I said the chicken wings seem to be on the sweeter side. I wanted spicy and a shoyu. I think this time I only received shoyu. Good chicken used to slice jalapeño so I'm not sure by the pictures shown that that kept the original recipes. The flavor is tasty, just on the sweeter side for me. The tteokbokki was tasty and had good flavor. The salad is an element that I wish they will switch to a Korean pickle instead. I will return for I think I didn't taste the spicy chicken and Sunny graciously told me to reorder my order next time for they didn't give me the correct order. I appreciate that in a business and I think it can happen to anyone. I will return for I missed my Korean fried chicken. I am so glad it's also not very far away from home. read more

Personally I can only speak about the tofu soup which was SO GOOD. Different than others I've had, but this one had a clam base which made the flavor just delicious. I'm full already but I'm still eating it. Comes with rice, tossed greens, and macaroni carrot salad. Others in my family had the chicken wings and boneless chicken and they were both making yummy noises all the way through. Generous portions: leftovers for tomorrow for everyone. Reasonable prices, easy parking in front. Also, delicious fries and yummy guava lemonade. Hit the spot! Will definitely be returning. read more

My husband is in this chicken crave. So since I was going to pick up things at target ala moana he said some yelpers went to this chicken place on Kawaihao street. Came about 10:30am and parking stalls were available in front of their kiosk. They don't have indoor seating but have 1 small table outside either to eat there or wait for your take out order. I ordered the soft tofu stew and my husband ordered the chili spicy chicken wings. My tofu stew was good even though it look red but not that spicy I could handle it. My husband said he's chicken wings was good not to spicy The couple inside maybe is husband and wife. The lady took the orders and take care of money. The man does customer service. Thanking everybody who comes to their shop. Lol... all in all its good. Shout to Nadine for reviewing this place and her pictures read more

E Chicken Ward did not disappoint. When we arrived, there was no line at all. I think the owners were the ones helping out, and they were super friendly and answered all my questions. My husband and I ordered the chicken wings with fries and guava lemonade. We asked for the honey shoyu and k-bbq yangnyeom sauces on the side. It only took about 15 minutes for our food to come out, and it was hot and fresh. There was a table outside, but we just decided to sit in the car instead. The chicken and fries were cooked to perfection, and the lemonade was just right. We're really glad we made it to E Chicken while visiting Hawai'i. Be sure to check them out! read more

I didn't realize they took over good chicken but I assumed the menu would be the same. The lady working the register had the hardest time understanding that I wanted to order 20 pcs and make sauces half and half for the $37.95 but kept ringing me up for 2 separate 10 pcs at $19.95 each. She just couldn't understand. When it finally somewhat clicked she said they can't do more than one sauce for 20 pcs even though she initially thought I only wanted 10pcs and she let me order with 2 sauces...Then proceeded to say it was her first day and she didn't know how to work the POS. So, she didn't know anything but that rule of one sauce per chicken order? She was SO certain of it because she made up the rule herself LOL. I saw the self-order kiosk after placing my order. FYI you CAN order a max of 2 sauces per the 10 OR 20pcs (see pic) read more

Good food and comes recommended by several people. Review needs 85 characters so added another line.

I recommend trying E Chicken in the location formerly called Good Chicken. I was very happy with their boneless chicken: crispy with a perfect amount of batter. Portion size was good. I'm glad that the location is under new ownership. I am definitely encouraged to go back again. For several years I was enjoying the wings at this location. Back then it was called Good Chicken. The batter was not too heavy & the wings were consistently nicely seasoned & crisp. Then about a 6 months ago I ordered their wings & it was no longer "good chicken". It was rubbery with no batter. I tried again & it was the same-- bad. Then I realized although it was called Good Chicken it was being operated by different people. Yuck! I wrote them off vowing never to go back. But last week I was driving by & noticed the name changed to E Chicken. I walked up to the counter & verified it was now under new ownership. The man at the counter was very friendly, the chicken was excellent & I will definitely return to E Chicken soon! read more

Second time I went there wasn't as good. I ordered the same wings but it was not fried the same way. Unfortunate their quality isn't consistent. read more

It used to be Good Chicken, but now it has a new name and owner. The food is really delicious and the owner is so friendly!

Absolutely loved this crispy Korean chicken! The coating was perfectly crunchy while the meat inside stayed incredibly juicy and tender. Every bite was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. Easily some of the best Korean fried chicken I've had and I can't wait to order it again the again.. read more

Last minute pick up and the K-Pop chicken was great! Got it with a spicy sauce that was flavorful but unfortunately not spicy. But, even though it was spicy, I'd totally get it again. Had the rose tobokki and it was ok. I like another place better. Bi Bimbap was tasty as well and the proportions and prices were really good. I'll go back again! read more
