So happy to finally have a proper Korean fried chicken joint in NW Seattle!…read more Zip Dak Express recently took over the spot on the side of the Shell station off of 46th & Fremont, which has previously been home to a Mexican truck (Chayote) and a Brazilian burger spot (Capital Burgue). I drive by that Shell pretty much every day during my commute, so I noticed the new truck pop up and made it a point to swing by. Drove up on May 30 and found out they had just soft-opened the day before - so I was basically there from the jump. I ordered a half size of the soy garlic along with a side of curly fries. They're currently only running boneless chicken and tenders during soft opening, which honestly worked out fine since my partner prefers boneless anyway. Before ordering, I asked about the difference between their mild and medium heat levels, and they offered to coat the chicken in mild and serve the medium as a dipping sauce on the side - super accommodating. Good thing too, because their medium is no joke. Think a tad hotter than Wingstop's mango habanero. That's coming from someone who can usually handle spice. The two people running the truck showed a lot of love. I pulled up with my dog in the car, and the kind lady working was quick to come over and give him lots of attention, and a treat! She mentioned that they're hoping to stick around in the neighborhood for the long haul and have plans to build out the seating area - including a fenced section for people who want to bring their dogs and let them hang out. Seems like they're dog people, I'm already looking forward to it :) I'll be honest - I might be a little biased here haha. Fried chicken is probably my single favorite food, and Korean fried chicken is on the top tier. So take that for whatever it's worth. But this was a great first impression, and I'll definitely be back once they open up the full menu, or hell even before that since they're so close.

The sandwich was delicious, and you can tell they focus on the details that matter. For a great cheesesteak, it all starts with high-quality bread, and they absolutely nailed that. The roll was fresh, soft, and held everything together perfectly. Combine that with well-seasoned meat and the right balance of ingredients, and it makes for a fantastic sandwich. If you're craving an authentic, well-made cheesesteak, this spot is definitely worth checking out.

I'd say the price is on the higher side but the quality and care they make for their food is there. The restaurant has table and bar seating looking out the front window. Give this place a try when you have the chance!

Okay, fair. Ordered the celery and carrot sticks only and it was not fresh at all. Carrot pieces were brown and celery sticks were very stringy and you can see from the pic. I can't believe they are serving this to humans. This is definitely my last time here and I'm downgrading to a 1 star. If I could give negative stars I would. FYI also paid for 3 ranch dressings and received only 2.

Located in Redmond, WA, the Third Place is a full-service Korean restaurant with a full menu of…read moreKorean favorites, known for their Korean Fried Chicken (KFC). Our family took advantage of the chicken's ability to maintain their crispiness, even for carry-out. It was OK, though a little confusing. Once we settled on KFC for dinner, our hosts (daughter and son-in-law) suggested carryout from 'The Third Place', which was a little out of the way from where we were. It is the Third restaurant opened by the owner, all Seattle area locations known for her KFC (Shin Sung Korean restaurant with Underground Kitchen and the since closed Yeon's Chicken). The chicken was ordered beforehand, and because it is prepared fresh when ordered, it took a bit of time for the order to be complete. There is a limited amount of sauce choices, so we chose Honey Garlic ($23.99) and the classic Yangnyum ($23.99), both marked as Whole Chicken size. Also a side order of french fries ($7.99) completed the order. The fries were good: nice and hot, heavily battered potatoes, providing a nice amount of carbs to go with the fried chicken. The chicken came with pickled radish (chicken-mu) which for me is a must, and it was good. In terms of the chicken, they were all wings, which isn't what I expected: getting the breast and thigh pieces chopped into bite-size pieces, battered and sauced, is what makes it KFC, vs all wings which is more like a Buffalo wing restaurant. So we still got the expected 14 pieces, but they were all wings (flats and drums). I thought the sauces were fine (intentionally ordered mild), and the chicken did maintain a crunch (though not as shattering as the best we've had).

This is my favorite place to get Korean Fried Chicken, specifically the Honey Garlic Chicken. The chicken is always fried to perfection and maintains its crispness even while it's covered with sauce and surviving the drive home (takeout). Honey Garlic is my favorite flavor, but Yangnum is good as well. The Creamy Rice Cake is not your typical spicy, red Teokkbokki (although they do also have that). It's like they put rice cake in alfredo sauce with slices of fish cake and onions. The texture of the rice cake is superb! So tender and chewy. I order takeout via their website and food has always been ready by the specified time. There are street parking and lots available, but at times can be a pain to find an available spot.

Good deal as I brought 4 wings home with me. I got the lemon pepper seasoning and it was perfect, not really wet but very crispy and tangy. The fries were actually really good too, thin and crispy, not just an after thought. I get what people say about the blue cheese. It's not a dressing or dip really. Hard to tell what to do with it. Press the blue cheese crumbles against the chicken. With my leftover wings at home I used my own blue cheese dressing to dip. But really the wings are so flavorful on their own, they don't need dip. The bartender was friendly and gave great service. Dark bar atmosphere but clean and as a person alone here in the middle of the afternoon, I was very comfortable sitting at the bar.

We sat in a booth, the inside was so cool, clean and the server was so chill. We knew we're going to order fries and wings. The only qualm I had was with the loaded wings was that they stayed "blue cheese" not blue cheese dressing or sauce. We were expecting crumbles or something along that nature. The melted cheese and blue cheese sauce made it very wet and hard eat... you had to dig... don't get me wrong it was still good. Just misleading. The wings were good they do tell you that it's going to be a wait and they are small. And they are. So don't be surprised, make sure you order more or you will be hungry. I would go back! It was fun And the wings were yummy!
