Shikamaru NaraSeptember 18, 2014The best chicken hands down!! Try the garlic soy! Food here is AMAZING!! It's worth the wait. Wish the servers were more welcoming though. That's one downfall, but I'll overlook that for their food
Mike WinstonMarch 3, 2015This Sunnyvale spot serves up Korean Fried Chicken that gives the NYC branches I know and love a run for their money. They use local chicken and it's so damn good. Read more on WinstonWanders below! Read more
Crispy skin on the outside and tender on the inside. Best fried chicken in the area. Definitely go for the spicy flavor if you can handle it.
Cheryl GomesApril 19, 2015Absolutely delicious crispy fried chicken..make sure to get the spicy stuff..I wonder if they make it spicier..but delicious all the same and with the beer to wash it down..yummy!!!
Tone MosleyJuly 23, 2017Get here early always a line. Chicken is actually good, Nice spices & not dry. IMO spicy isn't that spicy but I like Very Spicy food, so take that with a grain of salt if you don't eat spicy food.
Christina FerranteFebruary 18, 2013Absolutely delicious. Best fried chicken i have ever had in my life. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Definitely will go back the next time I'm in Sunnyvale!
Delicious chicken, fast order and Friendly Employees what can you ask for?
Whenever I'm here I always overestimate how much I can eat... Small wings half & half + kimchi coleslaw really is more than enough.
Jeremy BeasleyMay 28, 2017As good as i remember from the NYC location. Get the half and half. Your tastebuds will thank you. 😬
I like there salad and curly fries without cheese. There chicken is hit or miss. Sometimes fabulous, sometimes oil bomb and undercooked, sometimes miss a wing or two. Still love the place though.
My favorite fried chicken place in the area. Super crispy, super good sauce. Wings > drumsticks imo.
I love that their chicken is air-chilled. I enjoy their pickled daikon, don't really care much for the other sides.
Jonathan MayfieldJuly 1, 2019The boneless fried chicken is so good. It’ll be worth flying in just to have it.
Diane HoangJanuary 3, 2014The sauce is barely a glaze! If you like sauce, see if you can ask for some on the side
Bryan HuhJanuary 20, 2013Great fried chicken and the bulgolgi wraps are also great! Wait can be long especially for larger parties
Get spicy hot garlic flavor chicken. Ask for the sriracha mayonnaise dip. It's great.
Stephanie ChanAugust 15, 2013Not as good as before, too much breading and not enough sauce. If you get a mixed order of drums n wings, you won't really get wings. They give you some mini drums as well as wings without the tips.
Amy BNovember 11, 2017This shit of solid. Gets busy but with the wait. Don’t over order. Or so and take to go.
Cecille DolandNovember 14, 2014the sweet taste of chicken can be addicting; kimchi coleslaw to add balance to the palate
Ruby GarciaAugust 9, 2014Make sure that your not too hungry when you get here because there is an hour wait during lunch time 😞
Ross AllenNovember 23, 2014Chicken. If you're a wimp about spicy foods like me, stick to the sweet, non-spicy chicken.- Cheryl GomesMay 12, 2015Delicious fried spicy chicken is delicious. Make sure to wash it down with ice cold beer!!
- Craig BruceMarch 19, 2013A popular venue, and no wonder the fried chicken is very good, as are the bul-go-gi taco wraps.
Gustavo SantosAugust 30, 2014Order the curly fries and, for sauce, the spicy one. This place is fantastic!!
Shannon MadisonJanuary 7, 2016I personally prefer Von's, which has crispier chicken and more variety
David GaxiolaMay 7, 2014The amount of sauce on the chicken is good for me. Enough to give good flavor but not so much as to be a gooey mess like some other Korean chicken places.
Joshua RosarioMay 28, 2013Cali's strips are so much bigger than New York's. 10 pieces is actually a challenge.- Shirley LiuDecember 23, 2010The sweet fried chicken is great, so are the sesame chicken salad, curly fries, and rice pancakes
Pick the spicy option only if you can handle it, it's really spicy.
Call in advance if you want to order take out. Apparently it takes 30 mins to get you order, the same as waiting in the long line.
The door will slam you in the back on the way in, hold the door.
Good chicken wings. Not enough sauce on wings.
