Don Chicken Little Neck /돈치킨 리틀넥

Ordered takeout from Don Chicken on Northern Blvd and went for the Spicy Soy Garlic Chicken and it did not disappoint. The pieces were pretty big, juicy inside, and had that trademark Korean fried chicken crunch: thin, shatter-crispy, never greasy. The soy garlic glaze was spot on savory, garlicky, with just enough kick to keep me reaching for another bite. I also tried the Sweet & Spicy flavor not bad at all, just leaned sweeter than what I usually like. What I really appreciate is how Korean fried chicken is different from the fried chicken most of us grew up with. Instead of a thick, heavy batter, it’s double-fried a method that actually came about in Korea in the 1960s and 70s when fried chicken started getting popular alongside beer ("chimaek," short for chicken + maekju/beer, is now a whole culture). That double fry gives you the crunch without the grease, and the sauces like this soy garlic add layered flavor instead of just salt and breading. For takeout, it traveled well too the chicken stayed crisp even by the time I got home, which tells you they’re doing it right. Generous portions, bold flavor, and that authentic K-fried crispness make the spicy soy garlic the clear winner for me.

Ordered the soy garlic combo and received 6 drumsticks and 2 wings (Suppose to come with more wings and 2 drumsticks). Chicken and flavor was good but I would not recommend the rose dukbokki! Not spicy at all and tasted like cream and water with an overwhelming amount of cabbage.

Ppurings chicken: 5 out of 5. Delicious, unique flavor. On par with spicy soy fried chicken. Cheese fried chicken: 2 out of 5. It's fine but overshadowed by the Ppurings chicken. It's a less tasty, and similar dish to the Ppurings chicken. Sweet-&-Spicy chicken: 3 out of 5. It's pretty tasty, but an underwhelming flavor when compared to Ppurings or spicy soy. Coleslaw: 4 out of 5. Pretty tasty, hint of sweetness. Ambience: 3 out of 5. Clean, spacious, 1 private bathroom. Service: 5 out of 5. Very helpful, polite, and accommodating staff. You can choose between ordering drumsticks or wings for the fried chicken. You get fewer drumsticks than wings.

Don Chicken Little Neck is amazing! The chicken was juicy and had the perfect amount of sauce and crunch with each bite. The house made corn cole slaw was really good and went well with the chicken! All the side menus were good including the cheese tteokbbokki. If you’re looking for Korean fried chicken in the area, Don chicken is the place!!!

Don chicken never disappoints! Every time I crave fried chicken or takeout, Don chicken always hits the spot! I always order the soy garlic chicken with a side of fries. The chicken always stays crispy even after being drenched in sauce and kept in the fridge. The fries are always crisp and delectable. I also recommend getting a side of coleslaw as it is lightly sweet and refreshing! Occasionally I'd also get a cheese tteoboki. The tteoboki sauce is nicely flavored and the cheese cuts the spice!

This spot is my new favorite chicken place. Taste of crispy chicken and sweet&spicy sauce was exactly like I had in Korea when I was young! And also side menus🤩cheese ddokbokki! Snow fries!!! Lychee punch!!! 🫠Staffs were amazing and loved the atmosphere✨ I am so excited finding this place and can’t wait to try different menus🤤🩵

New chicken spot that open up recently. The chicken and french fries were fried to perfection and super crispy! Flavor wasn't too bad and the spice has a nice little kick. The punch flavors were all refreshing (we got lychee, mango, yuzu and lime) and delicious. Personally enjoyed the lychee the most. Straightforward menu and they're working on getting their liquor license. Happy to have such a quality Korean Fried Chicken spot nearby me
