I finally found Gold Chicken after missing it in the strip mall the first time I looked. The food is really good. I'm a bigger fan of the Korean Fried Chicken than the Honey Garlic. Make sure if you want to eat there that they close from 3-4. Friendly cashiers and a clean space. I'll be back for more chicken! read more

Gold Chicken - Honey Garlic Chicken! - Japanese Near Me - Everett, Washington

Really juicy fried chicken with great sauces and friendly staff! The little shop is putting out some of the best chicken and the bento gives you tons of variety for the best lunch! The interior can fit a few individuals, but I would not recommend a group to sit. If you work in the area, this should be a usual spot! read more

A tiny hole-in-the-wall business, but the owner was friendly, the food arrived promptly, and it was pretty good for fast food. I got the bibimbap ... beef was fine, sauce was ok, lots of veggies, plenty of rice - a big lunch. It's nothing special, but better than lots of the other nearby fast-food. read more

My bf and I stopped by here to grab a quick bite. She shared the Korean Fried Chicken Bowl. It was tasty. We really enjoyed it. There were many other items on the menu we wanted to also try. Service was great and very friendly. read more

Gold Chicken - Korean Fried Chicken Bowl - Japanese Near Me - Everett, Washington

This place is such a gem!!! The food here is amazing, the portions are great, the staff is incredibly friendly, and there is ample parking. We got the fried garlic chicken which was really great! It comes with cheese on it which I wish I would've known because I'm lactose intolerant, but I'm not even mad because it was delicious. The Korean fried chicken is also great and slightly spicy. The bulgogi is also really great but could use both more sugar and salt. We'd eat all of it again and again, so delicious!! Oh this is mostly a take out spot, there is some seating but not much. read more

Been coming here for a few years now safe to say they never have disappointed. There, Korean fried chicken, spicy chicken, and chicken Katsu are some of the best I've ever had and most unique must try read more

After our favorite teriyaki restaurant in the Everett mall closed, we were looking for a new go-to place. Gold chicken has a ton of options, we've gone a few times now and have been happy each time. The portions are huge, the price is reasonable, and wait time isn't too bad. The inside is cute, but really small so I recommend getting it to go. One thing that will always make me happy is when I order spicy (I always ask for extra spicy) and it actually delivers. Gold Chicken absolutely delivers on the spice, so if you can't handle spicy, be careful! read more

This is my second review. Just updating with some pictures and new dish. The owners, husband and wife Denny and Mrs. Young still helm the kitchen and front. They did some reorganizing and there are some chairs and counter space mixed in plus t.v. Menus. Denny is in the kitchen, constantly putting out great food and creating spectacular dishes. I've been privy to some in the works innovations. His newest dish was his take on a classic delectable: chicken tenders. There is a promotional poster out front stating a classic version and Korean inspired version. When I ordered the chicken tenders I was going to do both but only the classic was available. I did the 10 piece. I also ordered the Korean fried chicken plate as well. The tenders were moist, tender and had a very light crisp batter. I was given two sides of their dipping sauce. Not spicy at all. Very savory and paired well together. The Korean fried dish was heaping with a good amount of fried chicken pieces , slathered in a sweet, tangy somewhat spicy sauce. It was sided with white rice which is always a great accompaniment. The dish was served with a serving of miso soup and a side salad with sesame dressing. This place is a gem in Everett that if you know, you're in good hands. I highly recommend this place. read more

Don't even think about it JUST GO! read more

Love this place never disappoints my go to all time fav!! Get the Korean spicy bento box

I love all of their menu, service and ambiance! I will definitely go back and take the picture of my favorite menu!

It was our first time trying this teriyaki hole in the wall restaurant tonight. We did take out. The honey garlic chicken was unique in taste. We liked the garlic flavor of the sauce. The cheese on top of the chicken was a twist but couldn't really taste its flavor. It made the presentation unique though. The beef teriyaki was very mediocre in taste, although it was very tender. Overall it was a solid 3 stars for us but we look forward to trying their other dishes. read more

Definitely a hidden gem!! Soo well made and full of flavor especially on their platters so many options all on one plate really fun to eat!

The best value bento box I've discovered in the PNW. Great amount of food, very tasty and well packaged. Service was great too!

Tried for the first time tonight, Small, lovely & friendly take out restaurant. We ordered the Orange Chicken and Honey Garlic Chicken Bento Boxes. Amazing, generous, beautifully presented food , everything tasted PHENOMINAL. We will definitely go back again and highly recommend. Randi & Jeff read more

Food was amazing!! A very unassuming place, very small. However you'll realize really quickly this isn't any ordinary food spot Ordered 2 of the chicken teriyaki bento boxes and was blown away. Normally I don't except too much from a teriyaki bento box, it's a quick bite. However this was notably better than any place I've ever been to, including high end restaurants Food came out fairly quickly and the service was great! Chicken was juicy, sushi was very good. Every bite I took had consistently delicious flavor and I was very much beyond satisfied Highly highly recommend read more

The food here is so good! Very well balanced. I got the Korean fried chicken bowl. The gyozas were plump and juicy. The rice was super wet. The salad was fresh. The chicken was crispy and tender. With garlic and spice. read more

Having been to this restaurant several times now, I can say for sure this will be my go-to place in the area for anything teriyaki. If you walk in or order for delivery, the food is never cold and always tastes great! Would recommend the Korean Fried Chicken Box or the Chicken Katsu Box. read more

We don't deserve you Gold Chicken!!! Haha. So this is probably my newest and most reliable go-to lunch spot. Cute spot inside. Not too many places to sit but it's perfect for the space. I usually get the Korean Fried Chicken Bowl. Honestly its soo good. Also soo much Crispy Korean fried chicken, always fresh rice and a salad. It's so much food even when I'm starving it hits the spot or it could really last me all day and I'm so happy about it. The staff have always been so kind and friendly, ready to help as they can. Also if you're wondering, they have the good wood chopsticks! I honestly wana keep this place a lil secret in the Target parking lot. But they truly deserve the praise and everyone's business!! Side note: They did have sushi, not sure about now. But I have been too torn between the Honey Garlic Chicken and the Korean FC to notice . read more

Update: I don't know what the owner is talking about, because this is very obviously glass and it made the roof of my mouth bleed. Notice how he doesn't even offer to refund my meal. I still have the glass piece. This used to be my favorite place, but I literally just pulled a sharp piece of glass out of my mouth from a to-go box with Korean fried chicken. I'm really fortunate it got stuck in the roof of my mouth and I didn't swallow it. Be careful. To the restaurant, throw out any food that was around broken glass or open bags of rice. read more

Subject: Disappointed Review of Gold Chicken in Everett I wanted to share my recent experience at Gold Chicken in Everett, as I believe it is important to provide feedback. After hearing about the rave reviews on Yelp, my family and I decided to give it a try. We always have a friendly competition where we rate all the food and restaurants we visit. To begin with, I would like to mention that Gold Chicken is a carry-out only establishment, as there is limited space for dining in. As a family of four, it felt quite cramped once we entered. In terms of taste, as a family, we collectively rated the food a 7 out of 10. However, I must admit that the presentation of the to-go bowls and the way the food was packed was impeccable, earning a solid 10 in that aspect. Unfortunately, the question we asked ourselves as a family was whether we would return, and regrettably, the answer is no. It is difficult to explain, but there was something off in the flavor of the beef and chicken dishes; they did not meet our expectations despite their appealing appearance. Additionally, I want to make you aware that Gold Chicken is more of a "hole in the wall" type of establishment, where cleanliness does not seem to be a priority. In conclusion, sometimes appearances can be deceiving, as something that looks good may not always taste good. I felt it was important to share our honest feedback so that improvements can potentially be made. Thank you for taking the time to read. read more

Food has always been delicious when we order from here. We like the Korean chicken and chicken katsu the best. The yakisoba is DELICIOUS! The honey garlic fried chicken is good as well however it doesn't taste the same the next day if you have leftovers so it's good if you'll finish it on the same day. We usually order online and pick it up there. Their online ordering system works well read more

So good! I haven't had a single thing I didn't enjoy. You have to try the Korean fried chicken. There bento boxes are huge, you can definitely share one and have plenty to eat read more

Their Korean fried chicken is so good!! And a good price as well. Giant portions. Nice clean establishment.

On a beautiful, crisp early Spring day, there isn't too much better than a nice bit of Teriyaki. I decided to try a fairly new place. They are currently take-out only, so I only took out. The restaurant itself is clean and welcoming. I am not sure certain if they'll have dine-in once this pandemic crud is over, but I'm grateful they are here. I really appreciated the kindness of the gentleman behind the counter. Like a dingus, I forgot to bring a mask. In fact, I didn't even think to bring one, which is an instant Pandemic Party Foul. He graciously handed me what I needed for safety. I had the choice to wait iside the restaurant, or to wait outside and have him bring the food outside. I had my little doggie with me, and it was a beautiful day, so we waited outside. The food came rather quickly, and we were ready for the hike home. I got the food home, and was still warm. It was presented in a very cool way. It was in a bowl, and had everything from sauce, to rice & salad with 3 or 4 gyoza for good measure! What I know for sure is it got in mah belly, and was deeelish! I can't wait to explore more of the menu! Like Arnold said, "I'll be baaack..." read more

Food and service from here is always great. They have a lot of great options for their plates. It's perfect for people like me who can't decide on one thing and want to have a variety of options. They have lots of combo plate options for that. It's a bit pricey though. It's also worth noting that this isn't a place for dine in. It's really small inside so you can only do take out. It's also best to call ahead for your order. read more

Great service quality very tasteful food chicken tenders I ordered weren't dry and cold they were very fresh and hot my only problem i had was their sign which was the old teriyaki business which was still up I drove around a few times tryin to find the spot but the restaurant was very clean once I entered read more

All around great teriyaki spot! I ordered the Spicy Chicken & Beef Teriyaki. The meal came with white rice (no substitute for brown rice), side salad and miso soup. The chicken & beef were cooked perfectly, both very tender and properly coated with teriyaki sauce. The rice and miso soup seemed to be extremely fresh. The only complaint I have was that they didn't have sushi available when I went. I believe they were short staffed and there was no way for them to keep up with the demand. This was a bummer but is completely understandable. I will definitely be visiting Golden Chicken again in the near future! Thanks for the great food and service! read more

The teriyaki chicken was just so-so. Kind of tough and not much flavor. The servers didn't seem to care if I was there or not - a bit dismissive. There's not much room, thank goodness there wasn't any one else in the place. read more

Randomly found this place! After looking at the reviews, I tried their new fried honey garlic chicken and it was amazing. Big portion and packs a bunch of flavor, just like other reviews said. The unagi bowl was a little bit too salty. Gyoza was OK! Due to the staffs shortage, I couldn't try their sushi today. The place is very tiny btw so you should be prepared to not having a table to eat. And it's quite weird that they don't have water for customers. You will have to buy a water bottle if you want some. That's why I deducted another star. read more

Excuse me, why didn't anyone tell me how freaking delicious Gold Chicken is?! We've gone 3 times in 2 weeks because of how good it is! It may not look like much from the outside but trust the reviews and go. The portions are huge and the prices are great. The Honey Garlic Chicken is amazing - it's definitely my favorite thing I've tried so far. The second time we went, we tried a few different sushi rolls and the fish was all so fresh, it was delicious! Easily some of the freshest and best sushi in Everett imo. There really isn't much indoor seating, it's really just enough to sit while you're waiting for your order to come out so keep that in mind. The owners and friendly and service is fast. Gold Chicken is definitely one of our new favorites and we'll be going often! read more

HUGE portions/CHEAP EATS! Gold Chicken popped up on my home page and I was shocked to see that it was so close to home--yet I had never heard of it. It's the kind of place you pass all the time but don't realize it's there. I'm here to tell you, if you're in the area and hangry for a chicken bowl, you've got to stop by. I called to place my order ahead of time and the woman who answered the phone was super sweet. When my husband stopped in to pick it up, she included an extra miso soup on the house--so nice! We ordered the honey garlic chicken bowl and the honey BBQ chicken bowl. We both got miso soup. My husband also wanted to try their chow mein. It was so much food I could only eat half of my chicken bowl. Things I like: -Unlike some places, they don't skimp on the rice. -Each bowl comes with 3 gyoza -The chicken is well done and flavorful -Huge portions -Bowls start at 9.99! -The chow mein was tasty -Packaging is more eco-friendly than most Things for improvement: -The gyoza was good but soggy -The bowls were a little on the salty side I'm putting this on my list of Cheap Eats and will definitely return to try their Korean Fried Chicken bowl. They have a couple combos that cost more but give you TONS of food. This is a good choice for a family meal. read more

Good food at the right price. All the different sauces I've tried here I liked and the people working there are super sweet

Delicious! Plentiful! Definitely going back another time! And quick and friendly service.

Let me start by saying that my parents recently moved to Everett, WA and I'm out here visiting. My first instinct anywhere I go is to look up local food spots. As I made a visit to Target I noticed Gold Chicken and made a point to yelp and make sure to check it out before I left town. There were several things I wanted to try on their menu but after looking at the pictures and reviews I decided to try the Honey BBQ chicken combo. I could not have made a better decision. I ordered through the yelp app and my order did take about 40 mins to be completed, but I was in no rush and it ended up being well worth the wait. Service was quick when I arrived and when I got home and opened up my bag of food I was in heaven. First, the teriyaki sauce that came with the rice and the dressing for the salad were exceptional and enhanced my experience. The salad was fresh and the miso soup was light but flavorful. The honey bbq chicken was so good and I did not leave a spec of food on my plate. If you live in Everett this is absolutely a place to try and I'm looking forward to future visits so I can explore the rest of the menu. I simply cannot see any of their contemporaries in the area having better food than what I tasted today. My experience today is why I Yelp read more

Gold Chicken is tucked away in the plaza next to Target on Everett Mall Way (the old Toshi's). Love the food and the choices. I'm super picky about the quality of the chicken and their chicken is great! My favorite is the spicy chicken teriyaki bowl. The bowls come with a salad and 3 gyoza. The service is pretty fast and the couple running the restaurant are always friendly. The restaurant is small and there is not really any place to sit, just plan on ordering it to pick up or using a delivery service. It's a little hard to find an online menu because all the delivery services pop up first and then you are viewing inflated prices. I prefer to just call in my order for pickup. read more

Update: I've been coming here for a couple years, and it's still a 5* experience in my book. I think I've tried everything on the menu now, and I've enjoyed everything. Current favorite would be the tofu bowl, but I usually just go with what ever seems good that day. Tip: Get the Bowls- its a lot of food, and I always save half of it for left overs. At around $15 its a great deal for this quality and quantity. read more

What a cool little local find, for weekday dinner take out. This is the taste and texture of Korean style fried chicken, and boneless too. Really tasty sauces and cooked to a perfect crisp. I got just chicken, no sides. They have other Japanese style 'Terriaki' items too. There was an empty sushi counter with a sign that says "Due to staff shortage, sushi has been discontinued, maybe soon." I never tried it. read more

Unfortunately, we found a long black curly hair in our food. I don't think we'll be back.

I've ordered from here three times. The first time the food I received was great, the second time it was mediocre (I remember the chicken being soggy), and tonight what I received was disgusting. I ordered the honey garlic chicken bento box and everything was fine except for the chicken. There was no honey flavor and the chicken tasted bland, it looked like it was covered in mayonnaise. Maybe it's because I ordered right before closing but there is no acceptable excuse for serving a customer the quality of food I ate tonight. read more
