    C2. Lauren's Original Deluxe
    Mel T.

    I had high hopes for this place but they have been squashed. It might have been one of the worst chicken sandwiches I've ever eaten. Hubby and I stopped by on a Friday at around 2:30 for a quick bite. We were greeted with a musty smell, which I couldn't tell if it was coming from the kitchen or the bathroom. Either way, it was very unappetizing, and the place just didn't feel too clean. Still, we forged on and ordered. We shared the Lauren's Original Deluxe (cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, and Lauren's Chicken sauce) because we didn't want anything too saucy/messy, and we figured you can't go wrong with a classic right? Wrong! I will say that the batter was perfectly fried and not too oily for a fried chicken sandwich. However, there was SO much batter and it was unseasoned. The chicken was bland. The top offender was the cheese. Looks like they use Kraft singles, and it wasn't even melted! Cold cheese on a hot chicken Sammie. I'm glad we only had to endure one of these. You're better off going to any fast food chain that serves chicken sandwiches. You'll save a few bucks and at least you know what you're getting.

    I've been here twice already, and honestly I wasn't blown away either time. It is located on busy Route 17 with a small and somewhat difficult to navigate parking lot if the other businesses nearby are busy. Upon entering the shop is always clean and the service has always been good. The vibes inside are a little confusing though, as there is typically rock/rap music playing, but K-pop music videos on the TV. I have had the boneless wings, crispy chicken sandwich, and fries. I tried 4 of the different sauces and none of them blew me away. The prices are also a bit expensive for what you get. All of the food tastes fresh, but I would say the overall taste is just average. I will say though that my wife Frisca loves it, so I will definitely be returning here whenever she is in the mood for it. I however, would not go out of my way to go here.

    Was looking for a night time fried chicken fix. We ordered Lauren's chicken deluxe sandwiches for the first time. Overall, the chicken flavor was good and fresh. I think the chicken to breading ratio was a bit off though (thin chicken too much breading). As other people have stated the sauce is just ok, doesn't have a signature taste. I liked the mix of toppings. Fries were salty and crispy. Employees were nice. Seems like they sell an assortment of Asian snacks and ice-cream. Cool concept. They tables for seating inside.

    Just concentrate on the wings

    Okay I really love these wings. I've had the lemon pepper the hot and the Korean garlic all the flavors were on point and the wings were fried perfectly. I also got the Japanese matcha slushie, also on point. So before trying these wings I had eaten from two other supposedly wing spots here in New Jersey I was highly dissatisfied. I'm glad I took a chance on this spot.

    Had grub hub delivery tonight. Had the Crispy Chicken Teriyaki Rice Bowl,Dumplings Nuggets,Honey Mustard Sauce,& Coleslaw. Coleslaw was bit dry. Nuggets were REALLY doughy. Bowl was awesome. Would definitely recommend and go again....

    Stopped in here on a Friday afternoon for a little snack. The place was empty but I was greeted promptly by the friendly servers. you're almost overwhelmed by the menu as soon as you walk in, there's definitely a lot of choices. I just wanted something little so I decided to try the dumpling nuggets and a milk tea. The bubble tea I chose was the royal milk tea. It was actually very good, not too sweet and the Boba was really really fresh. The dumpling nuggets were great. Fried to perfection and the filling was also really good. I got two dipping sauces to try. I went with the Lauren sauce and their creamy ranch. Lauren sauce had a sweet tang to it and I could see that being good with wings. The creamy ranch was absolutely out of this world. They say their sauces are homemade and if this one really is homemade it's absolutely perfect. I've had their boneless wings before and they're really delicious as well. Super crispy and tender white meat chicken. I would definitely come back to try their burgers and more of the homemade sauces. This place is right off of Route 17 with a super convenient parking lot right in front. Definitely give them a shot!

    Literally the best Korean fried chicken I have ever had! My best friend and I both shared the mango habanero croffle, wow I think that might be my most favorite thing on the menu and one of the best things I've ever eaten! We also had the volcano sandwich, caution good but HOT. You don't realize it at first because the sandwich is so good but then the heat creeps up on you. We also shared an order of fries, and I had the Laurens original chicken sandwich deluxe no tomato. Wow, they even have an array of bubble tea and fantastic ice cream for dessert. If you were in the north jersey area you have to stop by it's a must!

    Chicken sandwich with Lauren sauce
    Alison K.

    Saw this place on IG opening near me so we decided next time we go by we should try it. The chicken sandwiches and wings were both delicious and very crispy. Big pieces of chicken on the sandwiches. My favorite sauce was the Lauren sauce. We got the plain wings so we could dunk them in different sauces rather than try just one. The Korean sauce was a bit sweet but still good. The bbq sauce was really good! We didn't choose ranch so it must have been automatic when we ordered online. I was curious about trying the croffle, which was a buttery and slightly sweet end to the meal. Will be back for sure.

    7 small shrimp for $8

    Update: I really want to like this place, and this was my third time going. I have tried different things to see what they do best. I got the fries again and still there is not a bit of seasoning, not even salt on them. Which is a shame because they are cook nicely and could have potential. I got wings and asked for flats only, they definitely did not listen. I was sitting right there, they could have said they couldn't do it if that was the case. Then the shrimp, $8 for 7 small pieces?! That'll be the last time I get those. They were okay, nothing amazing so definitely not worth the price.

    Korean chicken sandwich

    I first reviewed Lauren's over a year ago ( original review below) but felt the need to follow up. Ive been back a few times. Still a 5 Star, most excellent place. Again, do not think of the prices as being a little high for a semi fast food restaurant. The quality and taste far exceed the manufactured food found at McD's, BK, or Popeyez. The sandwiches are worth every penny although i wish they gave more french fries per order ( they are very good). Tried a few more items since last review. Menu Item C3---Korean Sauce Sandwich- sweet and Tangy garlic infusion with a hint of spice. .....very good. BBQ wings...very good and packed with sauce ( going to need plenty of napkins. But the item that made me write this is Menu Item C3----OH Shrimp--Highest grade crispy Shrimp burger --Shrimps Lettuce, Onion, Pickles, Lauren's Sauce THIS IS THE CLOSEST I've had to a real Po' Boy sandwich outside of New Orleans. Packed with approx 6 large fried shrimp, bursting with freshness. A meal in itself. And as always Lauren's changes their oil regularly to insure a light, crispy, coating that just says EAT ME. Already craving one now and its been only 4 days! Lauren's is a must stop. everyone I've sent there loves it too

    Korean garlic boneless

    Visited Lauren's Chicken Burger for dinner on a weeknight. They're kind of like a fast food place that serves Korean fried chicken. They have burgers, chicken sandwiches, fries, and of course fried chicken. We placed our order on the tablet at the counter (i have also placed an order for pickup online) and waited for it to be ready. Once it was ready, they called us to the counter and we grabbed the food. We got the shrimp nuggets (really just fried shrimp), golden original fried chicken, boneless wings with Korean garlic sauce, and regular wings with Volcano sauce. Everything was very good. My favorite item was the golden original fried chicken. The meat was very tender, juicy, and flavorful. The breading is light and not too greasy. The boneless wings were a little more breading than meat, i wouldn't order them again. The regular bone in wings were great though. The Korean garlic is a little sweeter and more garlicky and the volcano sauce was less sweet and more spicy than the soy garlic and sweet/spicy sauces you'd find at other Korean Fried Chicken spots. Fried chicken is my favorite food and they're the best place within 10 minutes of me lol

    I don't really have any complaints. Giving them 4 Stars simply because I only tried couple of items from their Menu, and not sure how consistent they are. Lot of good options for Fried Chicken and Appetizers. Do try the Lauren's Sauce, which was just too yummy.

    Mango Habanero Spicy Sandwich

    The food was delicious and pretty decent portion size as well. Great customer service. Will definitely visit again when I'm in NJ.

    One negative...off-brand ketchup...always provide Heinz Ketchup please...one can taste the difference!

    See all
