Chicken Day

Pretty good Korean fried chicken. Half and half can’t go wrong. Didn’t have chance to take a picture. All the chicken was gone when i finally had my conscious back.

This is my favorite neighborhood spot. The Korean Spicy boneless and spam rice burger are my favorites. Service is always friendly. Everyone answers the phone quickly. Togo orders are perfectly packaged with care. Wonderful murals inside the restaurant and convenient parking in underground lot, easy to walk to as well.

The fried chicken here is PHENOMENAL. Cooked to perfection, with delightfully crispy breading. The wing flavors are great too - we tried Korean Pepper, Sweet and Spicy, and Garlic (my favorite of the day). No outdoor seating, but they did have an area with a big open window. Vaccine cards required for indoor dining.

It was good. My favorite is the garlic chicken.

What day is today? It’s Chicken Day of course. The chicken here is tender and fried perfectly. They are liberal with the sauce but don’t overdo it, creating a perfect slather of deliciousness. The whole chicken is cut up into smaller pieces so you’ll get a nice blend of white and dark meat. I recommend mixing and matching flavors with half orders. My husband and I were VERY hungry and consumed an entire chicken. For less than $20, we got far too full. The ambience is cool for a casual spot-artist murals and such. Open til 4am every night except Sunday which is til 2am. And they deliver! ANGELS FROM HEAVEN.

Omg, where do I begin? I am so sad that I cannot get food from them often. I was visiting LA and decided to get Korean. Deciding to go here was one of the best choices I've ever made. Delicious. Staff is super nice. You will like it a looooot.

If you like chicken wings, boneless or traditional, come here. The food is great and the lady that works here is always nice to her customers. Koreatown has a lot of choices, but def make this one of them if you're in town.

I discovered this place about three years ago and haven't gone to another chicken place. I get the boneless option and pick it up but they have a nice restaurant where patrons can enjoy the food and the chalkboard the restaurant has. I get the 양념통닭, which is almost like orange chicken but for those who enjoy sweet and sour flavor, their 청량통닭 is similar to that realm. I have gotten their rice cake once, their rice cake is subpar. If you like rice cake, go to 엽떡 on normandie and 6th.

WOW! I got one order of wings spicy Korean and they were the bomb 🔥🔥🔥 Definitely be willing be coming back for more wings were really crispy

Sooooo good I rarely go to fried chicken place Great taste Great service Good vibe Also, Toy vending machines We were having so much fun Try it 😊☺️😉😍🥰😻👍👍👍

They’re pretty busy in the evenings but most of their orders are takeaway, but we didn’t have trouble finding a seat. The ttukbokki portion was kind of small to be honest for the price, but it tasted pretty good, nothing special. As for the chicken, I recommend getting the whole chicken if you have a big enough party, it tastes really great with a variety of meat, just be careful with the bones. One thing is they forgot to give us the radish but it wasn’t a big deal. The chicken was crispy outside and really juicy and soft inside, the Korean spice chicken was really unique and not a traditional Korean flavor, I tasted some cinnamon! Wasn’t bad at all. My personal favorite was the garlic chicken.

You can quote me on this: ✨Chicken Day has the BEST Fried Chicken in Los Angeles’ Koreatown✨ and it doesn’t just stop there! They have the all-star supporting cast of sides and sauces, endless flavorful entrees & appetizers, and an entourage of beers and soju that we made drinks out of We had: Soju Bomb, Fried Chicken, onion rings, French fries, Corn Cheese, Deep Fried Dumplings, Rosé Dduk Bbok Gi, Rice Burger & Fried Rice

Went here during black friday and had the place to ourselves! I noticed that they do get a lot of to go orders. We tried garlic, bulgogi and sweet and spicy sauces. All of them were very flavorful and delicious. Service was fast and efficient and the place is spacious.

I always love going here at any time of the day! All orders they have is takeout so that means the dine-in area is always empty. The staff at night is always friendly and asks if everything is going well. The chicken it self is so delicious!! I hope to visit soon after quarantine.

The chicken menu here is delicious. The chicken menu here is special. It is very famous among LA residents and tourists visiting LA. 👍👍👍👍👍

Amazing chicken, especially the spicy kind. Now officially one of my favorite places to eat chicken! Considering how popular it is around midnight and after, I'd say getting the chicken to-go is more popular than actually eating there (lol).

Awesome chicken,ordered garlic and lemon pepper wilbtry the sweet and spicy next time. Cheaper than kyochon.

Great value, $24 for 24 pieces of boneless wings (large pieces). Tastes extremely good as well. The chicken was also crispy despite being drenched in the sweet and spicy sauce. The waiters are nice and friendly. As for the atmosphere average. Nothing too special about it, but nothing bad about it either.

Pioneer parking driveway from Western going Southbound pulling better elevator also come Wyatt parking is free you can make it to go also find Thanksgiving I dine in but I still have to wait over an hour hot chicken I don't mean spicy hot I mean steaming hot

Arguably one of the best Korean fried chicken joints in town! Pan fried squid and pan fried korean sausages are a must. Service can be spotty but better than most Korean places.

We ordered the spicy tuna, beef, and chicken rice burgers as well as half orders of the honey lemon pepper, Korean pepper sauce, and boneless Korean BBQ sauce chicken. The rice burgers had great flavor but were a bit too oily. I loved the honey lemon and pepper chicken while the kids liked the boneless Korean BBQ chicken. Would definitely go back to try other flavors and food fare. Food hit the spot though, after a long period of not getting take out.

I ordered the original fried chicken wings (후라이드) and the honey lemon wings. I like the original fried flavor. It has a strong egg yolk taste which I love! And most importantly, it is not overly salty. I did not have to drink lots of water after eating them like the ones from some other fried chicken places. The honey lemon flavor tastes very interesting. It’s a taste that I’ve never had elsewhere. Lemon makes it really refreshing. It is not greasy (느끼해) at all, but at the same time, it doesn’t really satisfy my craving for oily fried chicken Lol. It also tastes more like roasted than fried. So if you are looking for a “healthier” fried chicken, this is for you.

I liked it. Good spot for KFC (Korean fried chicken). Inside is simple. Just a few tables. There's a small patio area. Seems more popular as a takeout option. The chicken was delicious. Great flavors. I also liked their kimchi fried rice. They also serve beer and soju. Service was ok. There's street meter parking or a small lot under the shopping center.

Very friendly lady welcomed us. Nice. What we have was honey lemon chicken and kimchi fried rice. Oh and we have taro drinks and black coffee.

Based on my experience being a regular customer here for quite some time, their fried chicken and ttukboki are just amazing. Maybe one of the best fried chicken places in K-town. Their decor is really nice as well as they have remodeled it and its much more modern compared to what it used to be before. Every time I have been here their chicken has always been fresh and crispy. Parking can be problematic sometimes as the it is limited compared to how many places they have inside the plaza. Overall, amazing food.

I got some fried chicken to go. It was a bit too saucy for me but the flavor was good. You can't just eat the chicken, you'll need something like rice or bread to go with it. I might try it again at a later date but I think it was over hyped and I felt a bit let down.

We've had many Korean style fried chickens from different places and we expected more, but this wasn't it. They served as chickens that were mammoth size, and it was scary and my wife didn't even eat it. It's like one of those Flintstone size. Plus the flavor wasn't all that great but they can always improve.

Nice big area to eat and lounge around. Good service. Chicken is ok, probably average flavor compared to Kyochon chicken.

We have been coming here for the past 6 years. Nothing has changed except the quality of the food. It’s made well but there’s nothing special to justify the pricing. Waitresses/host are always changing and some are miserable and others not attentive. For example , our last visit, we weren’t brought courtesy water. We had to ask twice aside from the drinks we ordered. The service is very slow. The place mainly stays empty, at most 3 clients at a time yet be very late with serving orders, I think they have 1 person cooking and doing the dishes alone to justify the slowness. Either way, we won’t be going back in a long while.

Let's start with the positive. The service. That's it. Boneless wings were greasy dark meat. Some chunks were actuality several smaller pieces mashed together into one larger breaded piece. Not crispy. That's why I crave Korean fried chicken, that signature crunch. Korean chili wasn't very hot Teriyaki had no flavor. When we asked for more teriyaki sauce she said no and said she could only bring ranch. Won't return. No comparison to places like Papa's on Olympic.

The chicken skin was good but the chicken seemed undercooked for like 60% of each piece

They changed owners and got rid of a majority of the menu. Used to be the absolute favorite place, from their scallion/seafood pancake to how their fries used to be. Idk. I miss how it used to be.

The old asian lady treat costumer badly.. she gave my friends and I a look that like why we are staying in the store late. We just tried to stay eat rest then eat.. She thinks like she has all you can eat restaurant.

I just came here a while ago (2am), the guy who was working that time is rude and cocky. He was busy outside smoking and chatting. The guy who is in-charged that cant even wait for my order, he was rushing me to make my order and he doesnt even want me to dine in! When my order was ready, he was just shouting at 'hey, hey', he doesnt it want to bring it to me. I hope not to see that guy again in the restaurant. If only i can just cancel my order and return it to him, i'll be glad to slap everything at his face

Honestly, it wasnt good all! I tried 3 different meals... Everything tastes like canola oil. My friend liked it, but then she had an intoxication and didnt sleep all night. i hate giving a bad review but this was bad.

Great chicken!!! I go here frequently. Update: my original review was from over 10 years ago. They must have a new staff here as I met the most horrible human beings working here yesterday (10/15 @6:15pm). WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE AND NASTY, UNHELPFUL ATTITUDE. The person working at the counter was so rude and hateful I walked out and did not get my food. Mind you I have been a regular here for over 10 years! This is the first time I’ve ever seen this person working here. This restaurant used to have a chicken Caesar salad on their menu. I guess they recently updated their menu and took it off. When I asked if they still served salad (as it’s no longer listed on the menu) she yelled at me about “homeless people like me coming in her restaurant all the time” and I could get a chicken salad but it would cost extra (this is the standard in LA) so why would she act like I couldn’t afford $6 extra for chicken 😭 she is working in a restaurant and I am owning multiple businesses…. What a joke!!! Seemed maybe like she has a problem with LGBT. When I was asking about placing an order to go I was screamed at. I kept asking her “why are you being so nasty and rude I am trying to order food and support your business”. She continued to yell and scream at me for about 5 minutes and literally jumped over the counter at me. She should never be dealing with customer and should be taught basic manners and customer service. Or given a tranquilizer to calm down. I am a restaurant manager and would be so embarrassed if she was my employee. If she worked at any of my restaurants and treated my customers like this, she would be fired on the spot. When I asked what her name was she and her co-worker from the back of the restaurant (an older woman who I recognized) acted like she didn’t speak English all of a sudden. 🙄Will never return to this business. Bad attitudes and bad customer services doesn’t get my business. Please train your staff to be respectful and help customers instead of YELLING at them. Totally unacceptable and embarrassing. 🙈 the food is actually tasty but I will never support businesses who are rude to their customers.

Chicken coating was very mushy and was falling apart as well as mozzarella cheese sticks. Chicken was also very salty and the spam balls were awful as the rice tasted old. I only ordered it because of the time but rather buy it from somewhere else with better quality. I come here often but food quality seems to drop.

DO NOT EAT HERE IF YOU HAVE ALLERGIES TO PEANUTS!!! I placed a pickup order and when I got home my chicken had finely chopped peanuts on it. No where on their menu says their food is topped with peanuts. So i called the restaurant to see if I can get it remade and the employee said I can just pick it off. I explained to him that is not possible due to it being contaminated with peanuts and Reiterated that I’m allergic to peanuts he simply just repeated what he said, that i can just take it off since its only on the top. As someone who works in restaurants I’ve never experienced this behavior before and will not be dining at this restaurant ever again.

I really was so eager to try this place, as I work in the area. Stopped in to enjoy a nice dinner. The waitress was VERY inattentive and uninterested. I asked for a specific item on the menu and was told that it's not available. Not even another recommendation was offered. Very strange behavior from her. I just got up and left. The place was a ghost town, as I was the only one there. Maybe she was having a bad day? Do yourself a HUGE favor and go upstairs to the Thai spot. Trust me, you will not be disappointed. Excellent food and service there.

I wish I could give 0 star. This place went downhill in the last couple of years. There are better fried chicken options in and outside of K-town.
