Group Friendly

Ordering Strategy

Portions are enormous—a single half-and-half chicken order is easily enough for two or three people. Go with a group to share multiple dishes.

What to order

Safe first

Pa Dak (Spring Onion Fried Chicken)

The absolute benchmark here: crispy chicken doused in honey mustard sauce and topped with a small mountain of thinly sliced spring onion.

Hungry

Seafood Pancake

Succulent batter generously stuffed with octopus; a filling and easily sharable accompaniment.

Wildcard

Yang Nyeum Fried Chicken

A crowd-favorite alternative KFC flavor that balances sweet and sticky heat, pairing perfectly with a shot of soju.

What to skip

Skip
Bulgogi DumplingsReviewers report they taste store-bought and frozen; save your stomach space for the outstanding fried chicken instead.

Good to know

They don't take reservations past 6pm, so expect to queue in the cold during peak times. Service is friendly but they will turn tables quickly once you finish eating.
