    Bulgogi Bowl
    Gabriela T.

    Ordered the bulgogi bowl for takeout and it exceeded my expectations! The bowl had a perfect runny yolk and the flavors were bursting. The bowl is also huge so you're definitely getting your money's worth!

    It wasn't very busy for a Friday night, but I don't know why because the food was pretty good! We loved the soy garlic chicken and it stayed crispy for our entire meal. We ordered the large combo and there was so much food. The rice cakes were ok. I would want to try the other dishes, but I can definitely see myself coming back!

    Crispy Chicken Bowl

    They have a small menu but there are a lot of options. They offer combo bowls , burritos, different types of chicken and sides. I will provide link to menu. 3 of us had bowls ( think poke bowls ). of us had the crispy chicken bowls. I asked for a different sauce in mine. It comes with a honey bbq sauce , I asked for teriyaki sauce. 1 of us had the chicken teriyaki bowl. My husband had the kimchi quesadilla. From the bar I ordered a soju orange cream drink which tasted so good. We also ordered the cider ale they had on tap which was also really good. The service was ok but all our food did not come out together. 2 bowls were served then we waited I would say between 5-7 minutes for the other 2 dishes. It was nice and clean as was the bathroom. They had a quite a few TVs up playing sports. The atmosphere was warm with wooden decor. Seating was comfortable and they had a downstairs area as well. All in all it was a nice experience and we really liked the food, so we will definitely go back I posted some pictures the crispy orange bowl and kimchi quesadilla pictures are from their website https://togoorder.com/web/5494#/o/2/f/1/m/18278//s/311111/items

    Bar style restaurant, plentiful of seatings, many anime and Japanese themed decorations! They weren't ready to open by 3PM like Yelp listed but I gave them a call and they informed that it'll be another 10 mins before they do. Service was quick and we were the first customers when they open that day. It was quite hot that day so we got some cold drinks, peach lemonade and mango iced tea. The lemonade was not good, probably used Minute Maid. The iced tea was aight, not much mango flavor but it was better than the lemonade. Both comes with a lemon wedge, which helped to brighten up the drinks. For appetizer, we got the kimchi fries, it's so damn good. The fries are fresh out of the fryer, with tons of kimchis, scallions, red onions, and spicy mayo on top. Bomb dot com. As for chicken, we got the 20 soy garlic wings(for 2 people), can't go wrong with that flavor, but try the half&half soy garlic and spicy combo if you'd like some heat. It'll get you sweating but you will be going back for more. Comes with a side of pickled radish to cleanse the palate. The wings are fresh out of the fryer as well, super well seasoned and not dry inside. This is my 3rd time coming to this location for MFC, hits the spot every single time, one of my favorites of all-time!

    Best korean fried chicken I've had in the area. We've ordered their 30 pcs wings twice for delivery/pick up already and they're always deliciously crispy and juicy. When our Uber Eats driver arrived though he said it took so long that he almost wanted to cancel. Just a heads up for delivery orders.

    In response to the owner, I've eaten at many Korean chicken locations. Pelicana being my favorite. Owners can't accept criticism where it's due. That shows a lot about your character. Don't tell me I don't know the difference. American chicken is not what I was aiming for, Korean flavor fried chicken is what I was aiming for. Pelicana remains my favorite. Have a pleasant day ma'am!

    The food here is amazing and the service is excellent. It's a Korean fusion spot and the fried chicken is great. Both boneless and bone in are delicious, and it comes with Korean radish. The tteokbokki is solid and the drinks are good. They also have a daily happy hour special!

    I really love their chicken. I ordered for delivery I got 20 chicken wings, some Parmesan fries, and a Bulgogi beef over rice. Delivery fees tax tip this cost me $93. I'm not sure if it's worth it. I definitely love mad for chicken and I will definitely go to the restaurant, but I will never get delivery again.

    Not the first time here and I have to say it not as good as it used to be pre pandemic. My daughter loves their Mac n cheese and we both were disappointed in it. The consistency of it was totally off. Super watery lacked in flavor. Fried dumplings were good. We got half hot half mild and if you do not like SPICY do not order the hot ones they will have your mouth on fire . We also ordered the scallion chicken which has been pretty good and it was still good. So they didn't miss on that. Service is terrible. No one came by while/ after we got our food to check on us. Our water was low and not to mention getting warm and until we asked did we get refills and more ice. Place isn't that crowded and pretty quiet. It was a Tuesday evening. And they didn't seem to be that busy inside. But.. I don't think I'll come back to sit inside. If anything I will order the chicken again but to go!! Not worth the tip for mediocre service.

    This place is the damn deal! I was exploring Williamsburg when my Twitter feed started blowing up with #nationalfriedchickenday. Well, of course I had to get a good reel in! I opened up the Yelp app and googled fried chicken near me. Lo and behold this place popped up! The storefront is unassuming. Tinted plate glass with wooden signage. The immediate interior is one large room with a couple of large picnic tables out of an Eddie Bauer catalog and a few smaller tables beyond that. Temperature check! Just over 97. Where're the extra points as my Caribbean mother would say? A hostess led me to one of the picnic tables nearby. (There were only 2 parties there when I walked in at their own private tables.) I thought it was strange since I was a party of 1. I had a fleeting thought that this was one of those communal dining type of places. Not that I would have minded , but I just wanted a quick in and out. (Like everyone else in Wburg.) I ordered a small mixed combo - 3 drumsticks and 5 wings tossed with soy garlic and spicy soy garlic sauce - and a $3 Narragansett can. The back of the space is a split level. On the lower level is the kitchen and restrooms and the upper level has more seating. BTW it's unisex and very clean. They have both air dryers and paper towels. I waited longer than expected for the food, especially since one of the tables already had theirs. But I guess that really goes to show that everything is made to order, which I appreciated. I must make it a point to mention that the service was excellent. I'll make it a point to go the next time I'm in town! The chicken was delicious! Absolutely delicious. I've had plenty of Korean fried Chicken, BonChon and Krave in CA to name a few, but this was the best I've had so far. There was that extra crunch when you bit into the skin. I don't know... It released the spices and the aroma right away. If the wings weren't screaming hot I would have polished It off in about 5 minutes and probably ordered another set! These guys truly are mad about chicken, and now, so am I.

    Half and half wings and sticks

    Celebrating with friends in Williamsburg yesterday, the idea came up to visit Mad For Chicken, like in the old days, when we were young. We walked down Grand Street to the restaurant, asked for a table, and received a lovely 4-top right by the windows. First, Yelp check-in to get a round of free lychee soju shots. Complimentary popcorn was served, and swiftly devoured. After brief deliberation, I ordered large wings, sticks and thighs, half and half. (If it's your first time and you want the classic experience, this is what you want.) After munching through a basket of sweet potato fries, the wings showed up. Seeing those big, juicy pieces of chicken stacked on the plate made me so happy. Eating them just made me happier. When only bones remained, I cleaned my sticky fingers, then rinsed my mouth with a pint of IPA. It felt good to be back. Next time, I'm hoping to stay a little longer, maybe try something new from the menu. I'd forgotten how much I like this place. Can't wait to return.

    So I actually googled this place because I wanted to try a new wing place. I was not disappointed, the fried chicken was sooo good, fresh and hot. Had the right seasoning on it. We also had the traditional bone in wings which were also good! We had the fried dumplings they were ok, a little salty for me but still good. The drinks were also great. Ok so the reason I gave it 4 stars... the service was a little slow... took while for us to get the servers attention to get the check. The ambiance was good and the music was nice as well. I will definitely be back!

The burrata dish with the sweet potato, pesto and tomato jam was a hit too. The menu didn't even say I'd have a balsamic drizzle on top! All of that was just the warm up... My gnocchi dish was spectacular. I'm not even a big mushroom person, but those oyster mushrooms and charred kale were a hit in the pasta. My friends' gigli pasta and mussels were great too. We ended up sharing a bottle of white wine as well, and the dinner was truly a 5/5. 0 I would absolutely go back, and it seems like their menu changes every now and then.

I chose this place because I had visited a few times in the past and expected a positive environment. While there, I ran into an old friend who was accompanying individuals with special needs. They informed us about the R&B karaoke event, and we attempted to participate respectfully and supportively. Unfortunately, after participating, the DJ became rude and dismissive. My friends decided not to continue because each time they attempted to request a song, the DJ was unkind and impatient, seemingly unaware--or unconcerned--that they were individuals with special needs. The situation escalated when I attempted to calmly address the disrespect. Instead of listening, the bartender repeatedly accused me of being drunk simply because I was defending myself after a rude comment. I was not intoxicated; I was advocating for respectful treatment. Even the DJ's own companion appeared visibly shocked by the comment made toward me, as if anticipating a reaction. I remained composed and professional despite being deeply upset. What disappointed me most was the staff's decision to defend the DJ's behavior rather than acknowledge how inappropriate and disrespectful the interaction was. This reflects poorly on how this establishment treats people--especially those who deserve patience, understanding, and dignity. I came expecting an enjoyable brunch experience and left feeling ashamed for having trusted this place. It is clear that the venue prioritizes protecting mediocre DJs with minimal local popularity over treating customers with basic respect. Poor organization, lack of proper event management, and unprofessional staff behavior made this experience unacceptable. I have visited many establishments and have never felt so disrespected. I will not be returning.

The servers were friendly and attentive. Probably 3-4 different people checked in multiple times throughout the meal. Where I struggle is with the actual burger itself.

This place was perfect and its menu was choke full of bargains and bonuses. This place was cute; I mean the bar was front and center and was very impressive but the table seating was charming too. Their lunch menu has a great "build your on burger" which i had a blast doing: Burger Cheddar Cheese Bacon Grilled onions Lettuce Tomato Mayo / BBQ con The service was exceptional, the ambience was very "Taverny [sic]" and my lunch was delicious!
