Absolutely awesome restaurant that has huge portions for fried chicken! I had ordered Golden Cheese chicken, Gyoza, Snowy Cheese Fries, and another dish with a coworker and we had food for another person! I asked about a level 3 spicy dish and they explained how that's cooked and they don't recommend it. Sounds like a challenge for next time! Totally recommend!
Pretty decent Korean fried chicken! Had to wait a while for takeout since the seating is very limited but it's understandable for the size of the restaurant. One order is def good for two people. Got the classic which was very nice and crispy. The soy garlic was pretty good too. Will go back to try the other dishes one day.Food: 4/5
We got the soy garlic fried chicken. Chicken was super crunchy and flavourful. Between two people you would have at least one round of leftovers each, maybe more. It depends on how hungry you are and how much you eat. There's also four to five pieces of deep fried rice cakes mixed into the chicken and sauce, which was very tasty. Fried chicken also comes with a small side of picked radish which was really nice. We each got a cup of Yuzu tea and it was way more flavourful that I thought it would be; more like hot juice than anything. Super delicious after a long walk and sitting outside in the cold.
Amazing place to get Korean fried chicken downtown. Ate with a friend here and the portion size for one order of chicken was generous, more than enough to satisfy two people ~$20 per person. The soy garlic chicken was unique, with a salty/tangy sauce rather than a sweeter one usually given by other places in Ottawa. The sauce was made with chunks of stir-fried veggies and a blend of spices. Fried rice cakes were also added in the batch of chicken which was also a nice touch. Service was great. Complementary lemon water and pickled radish were given on side which helped cut through grease. Tip: There is no bathroom so if you prefer eating chicken with your hands rather than with cutlery, gloves can be given to keep clean !
Had a take-out fried chicken dish since you can't get a fresh order for 1 person. Was disappointed with it, it tasted like it had been under the heat lamp for quite a while. They are also rather deceptive with the portion sizes. It looks like a large portion, but they use foil as a horizontal divider and half of the container is actually empty space, which you can't tell until you've started eating. With tax and tip, it's about $23 for a mediocre lunch, so not a great value either.
Spent $450.28 after taxes last night. Friendly staff. Excellent service. The atmosphere is very family friendly. The XO fried crab rice was good. Went down easily and was very light to eat and not heavy. Fried chicken was delicious. Ordered a few different types. Japchae tasted good. As well as the Jjajangmen which I am glad this restaurant carried. It is very hard to find a place that actually makes it in house. Kimmari tastes good and the sauce complements it. Fried dough was good too. Bonus 2 boxes of fries included which was very nice of the staff/owners. Next time, we will enjoy eating there outside on the patio on a cool day. I hope one day they include more items like kimbap, spare ribs, bibimbap and/or Korean rice balls/triangles. Also seafood and/or kimchi pancakes would be a great addition. This is definitely one the best Korean restaurants in Ottawa. The location is nearby a open city parking lot and near many other restaurants and somerset. It's a nice walk down Little Italy to get to this location or if you take public transportation you can get off near Adult High School or Gladstone and walk the rest of the way. I'll be back next time.
Dropped by for dinner and tried the sweet chili fried chicken, XO crab meat fried rice and the bulgogi poutine. This spot is a order and pay first spot with table service where servers will bring the food and water to you though you can self serve water on the patio. It's quite a small but cozy location. The food we ordered all tasted very good and authentic to us. A few things could be improved: the xo crab fried rice was quite greasy and there wasn't much crab if at all, and the fried chicken could be a bit crispier to stand up to the sauce. They also have some grab and go items. Service was very friendly.
Had dinner at K, Let's Eat. A Korean place on Preston St. Ate the Hot Chili Pepper fried chicken. It is that, and how! Also an order of Japchae fried glass noodles with veggies. Everything was so brilliant, piping hot and fresh. The owner was effervescent and excited about everything they had to offer and kept our glasses of ice water full. Will definitely be back soon. @k_lets_eat #koreanfriedchicken #friedchicken
Quick, tasty takeout, crispy and moist inside fried chicken had original without sauce, tangy crisp radish and carrot pickles to go with it. The japchae was to die for, just saucy enough, noodles perfect texture, spice that builds, veggies sauteed to perfection : Only had takeout so far but plan to come back to try the large patio. There is a 'takeout station' with small portions of different items ready to go for walk-in takeout people if you do not have time to phone ahead.
We ordered the classic chicken, it was crunchy and not greasy. It’s different from other Korean fried chicken we had, it’s more like KFC than buttered chicken. The food came out quick and people are very pleasant.Food: 5/5
