    The food was excellent and very fast. The workers were really kind and helpful. Definitely coming back.

    Cheddar original large fries
    Cecilia A.

    Came here close to closing time for nostalgic food memories and this place didn't disappoint. Very generous serving of fries and tater tots with ample seasoning. The young girl working the counter was friendly and kind. This is the potato corner I remember, tasty with 2010s core mall Americana ambience. Yummy BBQ and cheddar flavors just how I remember.

    Sour cream & onion, Chili Bbq
    Kelly N.

    Good but not as good as I remembered. I choose the flavors sour cream & onion and chili bbq. The chili bbq had a slight kick and had some sweetness to it. While the sour cream & onions was very flavorful and onion-y. They were pretty generous with the seasoning and made sure that every fry was well coated in the powder. While the flavors were good, the fry itself fell short because they were not that crunchy. Most of them were floppy so I think that greatly effected the taste.

    The service was great, the food however was disappointing. Their fried potatoes are always a hit. However, when I decided to try the baked potatoes, they were so hard and undercooked. It felt like I was chewing on plastic, and tasted bitter. I didn't know whether to ask them to cook it a bit longer because I didn't want to be such a bother. Overall, just stick to the normal fried potatoes.

    Hold on now because those were the best fries that I have ever eaten... This is a small little stand in the middle of Cerritos mall with about three workers manning it. The workers were nice and I waited about seven minutes for my fries after ordering. I ordered the BBQ fries and I did not realize how many fries were going to be in the container! It doesn't look like a lot in the picture, but I felt like there were so many fries and that it was worth the price that I paid. The fries were warm and more on the floppier side (but still had a bit of a crunch), which I prefer over a stiff, crunchy over-fried fry. The BBQ seasoning was DELICIOUS. Definitely more on the sweet side. I wish there was a potato corner closer to where I live, but maybe that would be too dangerous for my health haha.

    These chili BBQ fries are out of this world! You are transported to fry heaven in each delectable, finger-licking, euphoric bite. Perfect snack portion in the middle of your mall excursion. Be prepared to get your fingers covered in seasoning. It's a messy affair, but one that leaves you content and wondering how you got to the bottom of the cup so quickly. Once you realize the last delicious spud has been unconsciously consumed, a feeling of deep despondency settles into your core and you can't help but dream about the next serendipitous encounter. Potato Corner is undoubtedly a fantastic corner, serving up your fry fantasies one fry bucket at a time.

    Mega Fries with Sour Cream & Onion and Garlic Parmesan

    DANG IT POTATO CORNER WHY ARE YOU SO ADDICTING Are they the best fries I've ever had? Nooooo BUT their customizability and tastiness keeps me coming back! I love the assortment of powders that you can choose from. I've tried almost all the flavors and like them all. The flavor powder that comes on the fries reminds me of the powder on chips..and I think that's what makes them so addictive! I know other reviewers have mentioned a powder shortage, but I didn't have an issue with that. In fact, my fries had SO much powder. I even had leftover powder after I finished my fries and I was so tempted to just eat a mouthful of powder haha This particular location was a little bit slow in serving their food, but they were friendly and nice. Overall, Potato Corner is on my list of Foods-I-Will-Always-Eat-When-I-Go-To-The-Mall, right up there with Cinnabon and Wetzel's Pretzels. LOVE YOU, POTCO.

    I recommend two different versions of the flavors that I'll be talking about. The first one is Sweet Potato Fries with Chilli BBQ. This flavor is sweet and savory. If you're not a fan of BBQ flavored things, don't you worry... It doesn't even taste like BBQ. I get it for the spicy savory flavor. The second version I get is Curly Fries with Cheddar & Chilli BBQ. This taste is very savory with a cheesy flavor. I would eat this right away because the powdery gets pretty sticky once your fries get cold. The service is amazing and I wish they had a bigger area in the mall since it is located at the center like a booth. There isn't any seating areas, but I recommend going to the cafeteria if you want to sit and eat.

    BBQ, Sour Cream Onion
    Uyen P.

    The reason for my existence, never change. My favorite combination is the regular fries with BBQ and Sour Cream Onion seasoning. One bite and my day becomes significantly better. I don't care about the service, just give me the fries. Unrelated but the mascot does look questionable, he looks silly in a scary way. I also don't like that he has hair, and only 4 strands, might as well go bald. I love Potato Corner, forever.

    BBQ Largest Size (~$10)
    Winn H.

    I haven't had Potato Corner in what felt like several years, and it's always a nice snack. I tried the BBQ with a friend, and the quality here wasn't as good as the other locations. I'm not sure if it was just the batch we ordered, but the fries felt flimsy, lacking of substance beyond the initial bite. There was also quite a bit of "air" inside the cup since they make a cone-shaped paper they use to fill the cup. At $10 for the largest size, it didn't feel like it was too worth it.

    Jessica N.

    Went here while we were at Cerritos Mall for a quick snack and it is exactly what I was expecting haha. You basically order a cup or bucket of fries and can order powdered flavors on top. I ordered sour cream and onion+bbq on the recommendation of my cousins. I really did enjoy these flavors but I feel like they dump way too much powder on top (and I usually prefer things more salty/flavored but this was a LOT) and then the fries get soggy so quick. Not as crispy or good as I was expecting but still a nice little snack while you're at the mall. If I go again, might go for the garlic/parmesan instead and ask for a light dusting of seasoning which may suit my tastebuds better.

    How dost one mess up an order not once, but twice in a row?…read more Wing Ferno, we really wanted to love you. But it's clear some serious kitchen training -- and maybe a menu reevaluation -- is in order. Let's start with the spice levels. You used to offer a good range, with the infamous "Wing Ferno" heat reserved for those who truly wanted to test their limits. Somewhere along the way, though, you axed the regular spicy and a few other mid-range options, leaving only mild, medium, and Wing Ferno. No warning, no clarification. When we called to place an order, the staff casually said "spicy," which we assumed meant something tolerable -- not a fire-breathing, stomach-churning sandwich . And we can usually handle our spice -- we're Korean. But this? This had us both violently ill for days with stomach issues. (Sorry for the TMI, but that's the truth.) We chalked it up to a miscommunication and decided to give it another shot. This time, we explicitly asked for medium heat to avoid the inferno. And yet, one of our sandwiches showed up missing half a bun. How does that even happen? We really hoped to add Wing Ferno as one of our go-to spots, but after two back-to-back disappointing (and stomach-wrecking) experiences, we're going to have to take a long break -- if not call it quits altogether. Please do better, Wing Ferno. We want to love you!

    This meal was an absolute feast. Before we even ordered, our…read moreserver brought out waters and a bowl of cabbage salad for the table. It's a small gesture, but it immediately made us feel welcomed. We decided to go with one of the combo meals, which came with boneless crispy fried chicken, cheese tteokbokki, and fried potstickers. We also added an order of corn cheese because... how could we not? The chicken lived up to the hype. Perfectly crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and coated in a sauce that had me licking my fingers without shame. The cheese tteokbokki was exactly what I was hoping for. Chewy rice cakes swimming in a rich, spicy, cheesy sauce that kept me coming back for another bite. The corn cheese deserves its own paragraph because wow... I understand why Korean restaurants serve this. Sweet corn covered in gooey melted cheese is one of those dishes that sounds simple but somehow disappears before you realize it. The fried potstickers rounded everything out nicely and added another crispy bite to the meal. And because apparently we hadn't eaten enough, we finished with Dippin' Dots for dessert. It was such a fun way to end the meal and brought back a little childhood nostalgia. Overall, the portions were generous, the food came out hot, and the whole spread looked as good as it tasted. This is definitely a place I'll be coming back to whenever the Korean fried chicken craving hits.

Ambiance was clean and standard for a Korean fried chicken restaurant. Now onto the food... chicken was good but not the best Korean fried chicken I've had. The fish cake soup was $25 for only three sticks of fish cake which is MUCH too overpriced for what it was. The taste was solid but also basic and felt like something I could make at home... not special. The chicken gizzard had a good texture and flavor which was nice. The tteokbokki wasn't chewy enough so we weren't that big of a fan. The fries were freshly fried and good but it's hard to mess up freshly fried fries. Overall food was solid but not the best.

    We came here needing a quick Korean fried chicken fix. My thing is to always to compare to…read moresomething that I liked. So my base is K.bbq Chicken. I walked in and noticed they do have limited tables. I wouldn't say this is a big group kind of place. Luckily for us, we were a party of 4. I looked at the menu over and over and couldn't really decide what to order. I had the dilemma of trying to feed my kids. So of course something not spicy and some carbs. I ordered the fries and honestly they were a miss. I didn't like that dirty oil flavor on it. I also did the cheese balls expecting some cheese full, but that again was a little mochi like in texture with no cheese pulls and dusted with a sweet cheese powder. It's an acquired taste. Those are some of the ehhh dishes. However the star of the show were the boneless chicken. We did their ddeok bokki mala flavor. Dang, that thing hits! It's very spicy, but in a good strong salty and spicy flavoring. It's also not too runny like other ddeok bokki's I've had in the past. I was thoroughly surprised by that dish. Now back to the boneless chicken, just be extra careful on your first bite. It's oozing with juices and piping hot. I had to open a few ahead of time to peel the meat for my children. They loved it. Now, pro tip, I would order the original again and order a side of the flaming sauce. That was super sweet and spicy. The perfect compliment to the crunchy texture. I also ordered a side of the boned in wings and had the soy spicy flavor. That was really tasty. I would order beer next time bc these flavors were bold and needed a cold beer to cool down the heat. Now, the thing that impressed me the most were the crunch on every single piece of chicken. They are by far one of the most inquire flavors and texture combination I tried. One thing, that made me say, hey I'll come back here again, was their workers. My son accidentally dropped the fork and like a few parents, we would just pick it up and wipe it off and use it again. I know, not everyone will do that. If you have a toddler they can drop that fork like 4 times sometimes. Anyways, the waiter noticed that and quickly brought us a clean new fork. That's some fine dining detail that I have never experienced in a small restaurant before. Kudos for the wait staff on that. One item for improvement is to offer some carb options like rice or noodles. I know it's more bar or finger food, but can't really serve Asian food without rice.

For the sides, we ordered cheesy corn (which was just okay), tteboki (which was served with fish cake, and was easily my favorite side), and cheese sticks (satisfying). We tried two different draft beers (which is a must when enjoying fried chicken!), which were delicious and refreshing. The store is clean and spacious. Staff are friendly (shoutout to Luna!), hard-working, courteous, and service is quick. Would return again.
