    The menu (Sep2024)

    I was a bit skeptical about this place because it replaced Furai, who moved out of the Zion Market to a nearby free-standing location. But, I am now regretting that I didn't give this place a try sooner. The two places (Two Dak and Furai) have notable differences: --Flavor: Furai wins here. The crispy coating was similar for both, but Furai's meat was better seasoned, as if they left the meat in seasoning a bit longer. Two Dak's meat gets a bit bland, especially for the breast area. --Price: Two Dak wins clearly here. A whole fried chicken at Furai is over $31, close to $32 with tax. Two Dak is $26.93 with tax. --Portion: Two Dak wins again, clearly. Furai has potato wedge fillers. Two Dak is just pure chicken pieces filling your box and over the lid (take a look at the picture). --Sides: Furai wins here, as they make their sides in-house. For Two Dak, they are, to me, clearly bought wholesale. This place will be my go-to from now on for Korean fried chicken. The price and portion justify the visit. The friendly staff was a plus.

    The best Korean fried chicken I've ever had! So juicy and crispy, I couldn't ask for more. I love how you can get sliced green onions and sliced onions on the side to pair it with the chicken. It goes so well together. It's located inside of Zion Market and we ate inside. I'd highly recommend.

    Two Dak is located inside Zion market in the food court. I ordered the half sweet and spicy and half soy garlic. They put each flavor in separate boxes. It's about a 15 minute wait because each order is made fresh. Flavors are limited unlike other places but what they have is very good. It's not in my normal travels but I would definitely return if in the area.

    Last weekend, I went grocery shopping at Zion Market, and saw that Two Dak Two Dak had opened at the Food Court. Since it was my first time trying it, I tried basic Fried Chicken. I guess the raw chicken was marinated properly so the chicken didn't have any bad smell. When I evaluate chicken, the most important things I consider are the crispy texture of fried chicken skin and the juicy meat inside. The chicken sold at Two Dak Two Dak met both conditions. I was so satisfied with two dak two dak's fried chicken. I'll definitely come back to try seasoned chicken and green onion chicken soon. Highly recommended!!

    Chicken is perfectly seasoned and cooked. This place knows how to do chicken. Since they hand bread and fry from scratch, it takes a little while to get your food, nothing crazy slow but if you're used to american fast food, it will be slower than that (and that's a good thing FYI)

    Best fried chicken in Irvine!! Located inside of Zion.. used to love Furai but this place is better! Juicy big chicken wings and price is right

    I love the chicken here, especially the original and garlic soy flavor. The chicken is juicy and has Just the right amount of crunch. The owner is very nice and service is consistently good. They used to be located in the Zion off Michelson and relocated here. A farther drive for me but I still come here for their chicken!

    2. Sweet and Spicy Chicken and French fries
    Chris M.

    I got the sweet and spicy chicken and French fries. The chicken was moderately spicy, spicy enough that you could feel the heat but not so hot that I couldn't really taste it. I thought it was perfect!

    7. Half Fried and Half Soy and Garlic Chicken

    This is supposed to be $32 half & half chicken? What a rip off....I wonder who's giving all the good reviews. Unbelievable...

They start off by giving us cups with a jug of water and thermos that has broth from gomtang inside. The menu is pretty extensive a good variety of cold and hot soups and entrees. After you order, they give you a variety of sides to complement the meal which is great to snack on while waiting for the meal. If you have a bigger group, the kalbijjim is perfect to share as it is huge and comes with a lot of braised short rib, veggies, and noodles that have soaked up the sauce. The short rib is so tender and is very rich in flavor. The naengmyeon is cool and refreshing especially on a hot day. The seolleongtang is warm and soothing with salt to adjust to your liking and the purple rice to soak up the depth of the soup broth.

If you're going with a few people, the Braised Spicy Premium Beef Ribs with the flat glass noodles is definitely the move. The portion easily feeds two to three. The meat is super tender and just falls off the bone, covered in a rich, spicy sauce that has a nice kick to it. The flat glass noodles soak up all that sauce, and the chunks of kabocha squash add a slight sweetness that balances out the spicy, heavy beef. Service is super fast. You get your banchan pretty much the second you sit down, and the food comes out steaming hot without a long delay. If you're looking for a quick group lunch spot where you can split something huge and spicy, it's definitely worth coming here.

The part I want to really emphasize was the service. The young man that took care of us was very attentive and most importantly, treated my kids so well. He provided them with all their usual needs like plastic silverware, extra bowls for soup, and even offered extra soup when he saw that they devoured the galbi soup. He went out of his way to give them some BTS Edition Oreos and little bags with stickers in them. I am always very grateful anytime people take care to treat my kids well. I'm glad we decided to give this spot a try.

While I've noticed some dishes have definitely improved in quality, I can't help but feel that the portions and overall experience don't quite match the rising prices. One major gripe I have is the banchan portion when you order takeout--it's definitely lacking, yet the price remains the same. I get it, this is a premium spot, and part of what you're paying for is the ambiance. But when you're just grabbing food to go and the service feels a bit off, it starts to make me question whether it's worth it. Honestly, I've been feeling like the prices have crept up a bit too much lately, likely due to the landlord hiking the rent. Plus, I've noticed a bit of pressure to finish up quickly, especially when I'm dining solo, which can be a bit off-putting. That said, this is my go-to place when I'm under the weather--I can't get enough of their soups! However, with the rising costs and what you actually get in return, I've found myself stopping by less frequently. It's a bit of a disappointment, as it used to be a staple in our family's dining rotation.

My friend also let me try the beef bone soup that came on the side, and I had the same impression. After the meal, I felt sick and nauseous from its artificial tastes. The condiments and everything we ordered were also extremely sweet, which overwhelmed the flavors and was disappointing for Korean food. Overall, the food simply did not taste authentic or made with the quality of ingredients I expected. I really dislike leaving negative reviews because I genuinely want to support local restaurants. However, based on what we were served, I cannot recommend this place. The restaurant presents itself as an authentic seolleongtang restaurant, and one entire wall is covered with large advertisements emphasizing its authenticity. Unfortunately, the food did not live up to those claims. I was also confused by the restaurant's name, YiGah, because it sounds essentially the same in Korean as the well-known LeeGa name in Los Angeles. That initially gave me a different expectation of the restaurant. Unfortunately, the food was simply terrible during our visit. I hope they will improve the quality, especially the broth and seasonings.
