This place is absolutely amazing! Family owned, friendly, Halal, cute shop, and I crave their fried chicken at least once a day. The atmosphere is wonderful, I come in once a week and the staff are just a bundle of joy. My go to order is spicy rice cakes, a mozzarella corndog, and their lunch size fried chicken. My favourite hidden gem in KW, would recommend over and over and over again!

I discovered this new place and decided to give it a try. I ordered soy garlic boneless chicken and the quality of food was excellent: Crispy while well-seasoned. For its price(24+tax) i think it is reasonable(not too expensive nor too cheap). One thing i want to mention is that there is no A/c and thus would be very hot to dine in. So i recommend picking up food if ypu are willing to try food here.

Popped in for a corndog. I got the half and half with spicy mayo. Perfect fry. Not too greasy. The sausage was excellent. Can't wait to go back a try more on their menu.

I’m quite excited to discover this small, but amazing tastes to enjoy some of Koreans’ all time favorites school foods, late night snacks, triangle seaweed bab, and signature Korean fried chicken in one place. My wife and I tried 5 different menus, spicy ddukbokgi, Korean hot dog, shrimp tempura, cheese ball, and fried chicken. All of them were tasted excellent and extremely crispy outside and soft inside. Although here is the take out place, there’s 4-5 bar chairs to dine-in by the window side , so you can enjoy your order if you prefer to eat right out from the kitchen. I had a little chat with its owner chef and he was a head chef at various Japanese and Korean fine-dining restaurants previously and finally opened this place with his excellency of making authentic Korean foods. This is the place to enjoy really good priced Koreans’ favorite foods prepared by fine-dining chef with passion and love !

I loved the deep fried seaweed noodle rolls, they were my favourite. The chicken and corndog was also very tasty and they gave me 3 free cheese balls on the side. All of it was really yummy!

Ordered the crispy combo corn dog and a snowing crispy cup. The corn dog was really good, the cheese-sausage combo was very tasty, as was the juicy and crispy chicken. Great food, I'll definitely be back!
