    Peeps Gang Jeong
    Chris S.

    My friend had been raving about this place for a long time and I finally tried it. Unfortunately I was underwhelmed. I had higher expectations and was let down. Not that I didn't enjoy it. In facts I only have one complaint and I'll admit it's more of a preference issue. I got the gang jeong chicken which I was told was their specialty. Well, it wasn't for me. It wasn't gross or anything. It tasted fine in fact, just didn't do anything for me personally. I normally prefer spicy and more bold flavors. I actually do have a sweet tooth. Unfortunately this sauce really just did nothing for me. It barely had flavor for me and the sweetness wasn't much. Again, this could be a personal problem. As for the chicken itself, it was good. Decently crispy and fresh. It was good chicken. Peeps in my opinion isn't one of the best Korean fried chicken spots in the city. I've had others that I felt were better. So much so that I'm surprised at the rating this has on here. It's good chicken, nothing more, nothing less. I think different sauces could elevate it. I'm open to coming again.

    Peeps Padak (Scallion Chicken)
    Simon W.

    One of my new favorites! How is it that I just found out about Peeps Kitchen just now!? First off, let me just say no matter what fried chicken you choose, it will all be so tender and juicy, there is no bad fried chicken here. I personally go for the thrilling padak with the fried-crunchy-for-days chicken breast with dijon mustard-soy on the side and julienned scallions is my favorite. If getting this to go, the pro tip would be to put the fried chicken in a bowl when you get home and pour the sauce over it and mix well. Top with the sprinkled julienned scallions for a perfect padak. The Gang Jeong version with the house sauce is also a favorite. This sweet and spicy topped with sesame seed and almonds is a great contrast to the original. I have yet to try their chicken burger but it's on my list to try soon! There is no onsite seating but this fried chicken won't get soggy so not to worry. Get your hands dirty at home! Finally the owners are just beautiful people serving up fantastic delicious food with a smile on their face every time I walk in no matter how back breaking it is to run a business as a small mom and pop in the world today. Give these lovely people a smile and a break when you walk in and wait outside if possible because it's tight inside. Order ahead and wait patiently, great food is worth the wait!

    Service: ?/5 Food: 4.5/5 Ambiance: takeout only Mom + Pop run / hole-in-the-wall / hidden jem of a place. Solid Korean fried chicken, great for groups! Ordered 2 large combos to feed 5 people + we had so much leftover, everyone got a second meal out of it. Tip: I think the combos used to come w/ pickled radish, but not anymore, you gotta order it on your own! What I Ordered: - Combo B: stayed crispy even after a commute. juicy + I think the thighs come de-boned - Seasoned Fries: skip it, dry, stale + no flavor - Sweet Potato Fries: soggy, no other flavor besides its natural sweetness - Kimchi: fresh, not spicy - Scallion Ginger Sauce: tasted a little like honey mustard, my fav so far - Soy Garlic Sauce: classic - Sweet + Spicy Sauce: actually quite spicy (for a person w/ low tolerance) - Extreme Hot Sauce: I did not attempt, but friends said first bite was unexpected

    Good portion- got two regular sizes as a delivery order. enough for two people to eat it as a meal twice. Overall good food- (1) peeps gang jeong is a bit too sweet to me as a standalone dish. Personally would have appreciated a slight spicy kick. (2) peeps padak has a good crunch and pairs really well with the scallion. I would consider ordering again. Tteok Kkochi was all right. My companion really liked it. Fair to try once at least. Thought it was a bit pricey at first but its a relatively large in size so made sense for NYC.

    Amazing crunch on the fried chicken, great flavor all around, and super kind service. No place to sit inside as its very small, but a GREAT takeout option. That was some amazing fried chicken, solid fries and I'd recommend it!

    Moeka S.

    We got this delivered because our friends recommended this place very strongly!! We got medium size chicken thigh (6pcs of big thighs) and Gang Jeong Box. The chicken was crispy and delicious. And the sauces were delicious, too. I was just expecting more punch and oomph to the flavor, but some of the sauces were difficult to tell what the MAIN PUNCH flavor was. Loved the box deal but kimchi, too, I feel like could've had more flavors too it. The chicken were great but I feel that the flavoring could've been more bold!!

    My favorite Korean fried chicken in all of NYC. First off, Peeps Kitchen is run by the sweetest couple ever. They are the friendliest, warmest people you'll ever meet. You can really tell that their food is a labor of love, and you'll taste it in every bite! Like all the other reviews mention, there's no seating, so make sure to call ahead of time. They also don't start serving chicken until dinner, so plan accordingly. For lunch, they exclusively serve bento boxes (I have yet to try them, but it's definitely on my list). Now to the chicken--the glorious crunchy chicken that is Peeps. The crunch is just absolutely insane. If you get sauce, definitely ask for it on the side so that your chicken doesn't get soggy. After the crunch comes the tender, juicy insides, so fresh and delicious. The texture of their chicken is an experience in and of itself. Their soy garlic sauce is perfection, and if you want a little bit of a kick, they have a couple of spicy options. You also MUST get their tteok kkochi (fried rice cake w/sausage skewers). The texture of the rice cakes is incredible. Crispy around the edges but super chewy and soft on the inside. The sausage is also always grilled perfectly, and the spicy sauce that comes on top is delectable. It's also a perfect snack to eat on the go! Peeps is just THE place for Korean fried chicken.

    I came once and that was all I needed! But I was def back for more it's worth the walk too. The food stays crispy and it's bursting with flavor. ESP with their option to choose 2 sauces on the side. Their gang jeong chicken is fried perfectly and topped with sauce or they have wings without sauce. I had their beef dumplings , banging The food prep takes a min like 45min so call ahead! Check them out! A lovely couple in the kitchen, giving you great tasting food and so sweet in person.

    Theresa L.

    This is a take out only spot. Ordered the Korean fried chicken wings with the sweet and spicy sauce. Would definitely order the wings again! Wings were crispy and sauce was good. The only drawback is that you have to pay for the sauce separately. One of the top places in the Greenpoint/Williamsburg area for Korean fried chicken wings.

    Decided to order from this Korean mom & pop restaurant after reading other Yelp reviews. Opens late in the afternoon till as late as midnite. The couple owner were very friendly and service was great. The restaurant is takeout only. It may look large from the outside but there was hardly any room inside to wait for takeout. Best to order online for delivery or to pickup. I decided to try the popular recommended dishes. I ordered the Peeps Gang Jeong (fried boneless chicken chunks glazed with house Gang Jeong sauce), Peeps Padak (fried boneless chicken chunks with shredded scallions and house Padak sauce), and the Tteok Kkochi (grilled sausage and rice cake skewer). Food took a while to make but worth the wait. Padak had no seasoning nor taste until mixed with the sauce which made it unexpectedly very tasty. Gang Jeong was also very good with the slightly sweet glaze. The Tteok Kkochi sausages were deliciously smoky and rice cake chewy; dipped in the plum flavored sauce made them even better. Portions were large and neatly packed. Overall, an enjoyable experience.

Last night we decided it was time she try Korean food, and specifically he wanted to choose a Bib Gourmand restaurant. We booked this reservation the same day, and watched spots get taken as we booked on the website! Street parking wasn't hard to find and we were greeted and seated immediately. We loved the calming atmosphere inside and had a table with a view of everything. After offering us water, we decided on drinks. I ordered the Velvet Reviver, which was described as an espresso martini meets a White Russian. It was delicious and almost like a dessert drink. My boyfriend ordered The Squid & The Whale which grew on all of us, especially paired with our food. To start, we shared the Yache pajun (vegetable scallion pancakes) and the Dukboki fundido (a Mexican inspired spicy, hot, cheesy dip with my favorite chewy Korean rice cakes inside). The scallion pancakes were delicious and had much more texture than once I have tried in the past, paired with a perfect vinegary sauce you can spoon on top. We all loved the dip and it was the perfect amount of spicy and comforting chewiness. I then was recommended a white wine to pair with the appetizer I chose as my entree, the Yeoneo. Each slice of salmon was incredibly fresh, and they were very generous with the amount of row that was served as well. The greens and avocado slices were great as well to add more texture. My boyfriend then ordered a yummy beer and the Daegu jorim. We absolutely adored this dish and noted that the cod had perfect structure to it, that almost mimic that of the deliciously cooked radishes in this dish. His mother ordered the ultimate comfort dish of the night, the Kalbi jjim (with no jalapeños). We were in awe at how the meat fell apart due to how tender it was. If you like melt in your mouth beef and stew like dishes, this is the dish for you. Our food was served with some banchan: amazing kimchi, myeolchi bokkeum (dried anchovies, much more mild than you'd expect), and kongjang (soy beans, also mild and with more chew than a typical edamame you might expect). We absolutely loved our dinner here and how helpful and kind the weight staff was, explaining different dishes and flavors, and clearing and switching out our plates at every turn.

    As frequent KBBQ eaters, my boyfriend and I decided it was time to try a more refined take on…read moreKorean dining. Since I was staying in Brooklyn for work, Haenyeo was an easy choice for a date night dinner. We went on a Thursday evening around 8pm. We didn't have a reservation but were seated immediately without a wait. The restaurant was fairly busy; if you're planning ahead I would consider making a reservation. We started with an order of the Japchae. Then we ordered the Bibimbop with chicken and the Bulgogi. The Japchae was underwhelming. Not a strong flavor profile, leaned sort of bland. The entrees were much better. The rice in the Bibimbop had a really yummy crispy layer. When all mixed together, it's a great melody of flavors and textures. The Bulgogi was equally enjoyable. Definitely recommend the red spicy sauce it comes with. We shared both entrees among 2 people and felt the portions sizes were decent - neither left hungry. The service was okay. We didn't seem to have a dedicated server. It felt like all the wait staff takes care of everyone simultaneously? Everyone was friendly; there was just a long wait for someone to come for our food order. If you're looking for an authentic experience with Korean food, this may be the spot for you.

Happy to report that I was pleasantly surprised! Almost everything we ordered was delicious! Both Korean Fried Chicken orders had good flavor and great for sharing. I rarely see Soy Ginger as an option (usually it's Soy Garlic) but I like the slight sharpness it added to each bite. The Seafood Pancake was crispy, loaded with seafood, and paired nicely with the ponzu. The Slow Loris Roll was incredible! The rice ratio was just right, there was a good variety of fish and it was all fresh, the avocado and sauces added nice creaminess, and torching the roll was the cherry on top. The Spicy Bulgogi Fried Rice with Cheese was super savory, the sunnyside egg was cooked perfectly, and the portion was solid. I didn't care for the cheese and honestly could've done without and not noticed. It did need something to cut through the richness. I did enjoy the Beef Galbi much more! It is brought to the table sizzling and smelling amazing. It's savory, sweet, and smoky. I like that it's paired with kimchi & rice making this is complete meal. All in all, I was impressed with everything here! We were also a large party (7 people) yet everything was served correctly and in a timely fashion. Definitely recommend stopping by!
