The best chicken hands down!! Try the garlic soy! Food here is AMAZING!! It's worth the wait. Wish the servers were more welcoming though. That's one downfall, but I'll overlook that for their food

Clement Ng

Crispy skin on the outside and tender on the inside. Best fried chicken in the area. Definitely go for the spicy flavor if you can handle it.

Mike Winston

This Sunnyvale spot serves up Korean Fried Chicken that gives the NYC branches I know and love a run for their money. They use local chicken and it's so damn good. Read more on WinstonWanders below! Read more

Absolutely delicious crispy fried chicken..make sure to get the spicy stuff..I wonder if they make it spicier..but delicious all the same and with the beer to wash it down..yummy!!!

Tone Mosley

Get here early always a line . Chicken is actually good, Nice spices & not dry. IMO spicy isn't that spicy but I like Very Spicy food , so take that with a grain of salt if you don't eat spicy food .

Christina Ferrante

Absolutely delicious. Best fried chicken i have ever had in my life. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Definitely will go back the next time I'm in Sunnyvale!

Kat 🐱

Whenever I'm here I always overestimate how much I can eat... Small wings half & half + kimchi coleslaw really is more than enough.

Hyde Motta

Delicious chicken , fast order and Friendly Employees what can you ask for?

Jeremy Beasley

As good as i remember from the NYC location. Get the half and half . Your tastebuds will thank you. 😬

Eric

My favorite fried chicken place in the area. Super crispy , super good sauce. Wings > drumsticks imo.

Judy M

I love that their chicken is air-chilled. I enjoy their pickled daikon , don't really care much for the other sides.

Cheryl Gomes

Delicious fried spicy chicken is delicious. Make sure to wash it down with ice cold beer !!

Duy Tran

I like there salad and curly fries without cheese . There chicken is hit or miss. Sometimes fabulous, sometimes oil bomb and undercooked, sometimes miss a wing or two. Still love the place though.

Venkatesh Hodavdekar

Get spicy hot garlic flavor chicken . Ask for the sriracha mayonnaise dip . It's great.

Amy B

This shit of solid. Gets busy but with the wait. Don’t over order. Or so and take to go.

Jonathan Mayfield

The boneless fried chicken is so good. It’ll be worth flying in just to have it.

Bryan Huh

Great fried chicken and the bulgolgi wraps are also great! Wait can be long especially for larger parties

Diane Hoang

The sauce is barely a glaze! If you like sauce, see if you can ask for some on the side

Craig Bruce

A popular venue, and no wonder the fried chicken is very good, as are the bul-go-gi taco wraps .

Cecille Doland

the sweet taste of chicken can be addicting; kimchi coleslaw to add balance to the palate

Gustavo Santos

Order the curly fries and, for sauce, the spicy one. This place is fantastic!!

Atef Chaudhury

Spicy chicken for sure. Try the kimchi coleslaw too.

Heather Melnyk

Spicy is very spicy but good! Potstickers are delicious.

Ross Allen

Chicken . If you're a wimp about spicy foods like me, stick to the sweet, non-spicy chicken .

Ruby Garcia

Make sure that your not too hungry when you get here because there is an hour wait during lunch time 😞

Charles LI

Spicy chicken wings are AMAZING! So hot. Can't stop eating.

Shannon Madison

I personally prefer Von's, which has crispier chicken and more variety

Stephanie Chan

Not as good as before, too much breading and not enough sauce. If you get a mixed order of drums n wings , you won't really get wings . They give you some mini drums as well as wings without the tips.

Raymond Peck

Not your typical fried chicken . One meal will fill you all the way.

Praveen

Pick the spicy option only if you can handle it, it's really spicy .

John Clover

The door will slam you in the back on the way in, hold the door.

David Gaxiola

The amount of sauce on the chicken is good for me. Enough to give good flavor but not so much as to be a gooey mess like some other Korean chicken places.

Yvonne Barter

Get the half and half sauce for the wings .

Joshua Rosario

Cali's strips are so much bigger than New York's. 10 pieces is actually a challenge.

Nora Tarano

The chicken is consistently perfectly crispy .

Shirley Liu

The sweet fried chicken is great, so are the sesame chicken salad , curly fries , and rice pancakes

Shannon Russell

Spicy garlic chicken is the best!

Emily Leung

Get drums (it's -sticks, not -ettes) in your set, or you'll regret it! Closed Tuesdays.

Vicki Tran

Call in advance if you want to order take out . Apparently it takes 30 mins to get you order, the same as waiting in the long line .

Frances

Garlic soy chicken with siracha mayo

Tammy Nguyen

Medium, wings with both flavors.

Travis McGee

White meat is tempting but wings and drums are so much better

Klee

Must get Soju with peach flavor in the pitcher !

Cindicupcaking Nguyen

Good chicken wings . Not enough sauce on wings .

Arnold Valentino

Try the Bon Chon (Korean Fried Chicken )

Pawel Pietryka

My favorite fried chicken place.

Ivan Lee

Boneless is a bit bland. Go for the wings !

Sean Boileau

Best. Fried. Chicken . Ever.

Arnold Valentino

Try the Sesame Ginger Tofu Salad
