Definitely visiting again! It was so good. We got fried chicken tenders and fries, the spicy kind and it did not disappoint! AND THEY GAVE GLOVES! So elite we loved it!!!
Very good place to eat at if you are in Andersonville. The honey mustard chicken sandwich was really good and so was the pineapple passionfruit drink. It was a reasonable wait and decent pricing, it is normally not crowded and is a great place to stop by in Andersonville.
I found the sweet and spicy chicken sandwich substantial, balanced, and flavorful. The chicken was coated with a thick and very crispy breading layer and was noticeably tender through the entire sandwich. The breading and lettuce provided a great contrast of fresh and savory crunchiness against the soft and sweet bread, and the sauces, while piquant, never overwhelmed the other flavors of the sandwich. The chicken sandwich was a very happy experience. I also had the pork buns, which I found blatantly mediocre. The buns were very dry at some points and almost wet at others, as though parts of the buns were steamed selectively. The pork belly inside tasted plain bad, and was tougher than any other braised pork belly I've had from an Asian restaurant. I'd stick to the sandwich.
We stopped in for a bite and were pleasantly surprised! The restaurant is small but it's so cute and has a lot of fantastic choices from wings, bibimbap, and various don. There are also a lot of choices of teas and smoothies with several tapioca options! I got the katsu don, delicious. And my girlfriend got the honey butter tenders, which were fantastic! Both of us got fruit teas and they were super yummy. You can customize the sweetness. We are really excited to come back!
Easily the best chicken sandwich I've ever had. I got the soy and garlic sandwich - perfectly marinated, juicy and not oily, the flavour is just divine. Crispy but not overly hard. The portion size is huge, like a whopper, the bread was fresh and yummy. Tip: sandwich takes about 10-15 minutes to make, so if you're not dining in, call ahead to order. I didn't take a photo of the sandwich before I started handling it - hence the unflattering photos. Do yourself a favour and try one. (My bff, a Korean Fried Chicken aficionado, said the coconut curry and plain wings were 🔥🔥🔥)
This is my quiet place when I need some serenity from work. Happy music is playing, and the entire place is bright yellow with plushie chickens on the tables in yellow buckets. In the employees' downtime, I see them washing the space down and cleaning up. Hand sanitizer is on each table for before or after your meal if you make a mess of yourself. Guilty! I always come for the Korean fried chicken and was just tickled the first time I came in and they served the wings with a pair of gloves to keep your hands clean. At first I thought it was silly and I wasn't going to use them, but then I was like f that! I walked out of that place as clean as a whistle after guzzling down my fried chicken and pickled radish. The Snow onion flavor has a lightweight batter with a peppery sauce. I've never had a cheese cloud before and was obviously intrigued like any American citizen would be. I quickly learned that a cheese cloud is made of cream cheese, whipping cream, milk, and sugar. So duh, who wouldn't like it? There was plenty of crystal boba to get you through the entire drink. The cheese foam is like a special treat at the end, almost like your dessert at the end of a meal.
🐥🍛🧋Cute, casual spot in Andersonville with east meets west comfort food menu. There’s Korean fried chicken, rice bowls, Japanese dishes and bubble tea. While the menu selection is pretty good not all the dishes hit the mark. We liked the rice bowls,buns and takoyaki more than the fried chicken. It’s all fresh and cooked great but we prefer punchier flavors for the sauce as compared to the mild ones Cuckoo has. They have a coconut curry sauce that’s unique. Ordering experience is a breeze with the digital kiosk or the counter. This location is self-serve. However, the staff is warm and friendly.
