What our guests are saying

My husband and I had an incredible dining experience at this chicken and rice restaurant! The food was absolutely delicious—every bite was flavorful and perfectly cooked. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal. The service was excellent, with friendly and attentive staff who made sure we had everything we needed. We will definitely be returning. Highly recommend!

Some of the best Korean fried chicken I’ve had! From tenders to the steamed chicken bowl for a more healthy option, you can opt for race and broccoli as I did, I also got my choice of sauce, so I picked the spicy green one! It was also a delicious fried chicken sandwich even better than Chick-fil-A. I might say! I love their array of sauces from the sweet chili pie to the spicy mayo.

We got a salad and crispy chicken, roasted chicken and rice and chicken tenders and fries. Everything was full of flavor, and the dipping sauces were nice additions. The veggies on the salad and rice dish were fresh, the rice dish came with a chicken broth that had a kick to it, and the fries were exceptional. We will definitely make this place one of our go-to places now that we have tried it.
