Chan Chan

Chan Chan, where did you come from? I swear, this place popped up out of nowhere and blew my mind. My daughter asked for Korean fried chicken, so I took to Yelp and prayed for a miracle. Yelp, you came thru!!!! Walked in expecting a fast food vibe because it looked like it would be a fast food place but the server treated us like we were fine dining. We ordered the Combo 3 and damn, those wings were huge--heavily battered but somehow light and crispy. I know, it's an oxymoron, but they pulled it off. The spicy soy sauce was a game changer, and my daughter was all about that Chan Chan sauce. But let's talk about the rice cakes--I'll be dreaming about that sauce for the rest of my life. The beef kimbap? Solid.Food was on point, but honestly, the sauces stole the show. I knew it was legit when my daughter whispered, "this is so good," which is basically a miracle since she doesn't say that about any place-- except for my cooking (she's my fave kid). Only downside? No alcohol. Bruh, come on. Get it together.Other than that, Chan Chan is a solid 5/5. Catch us here regularly

Was craving korean fried chicken and stopped by this spot since it was close by. We were pleasantly surprised by the portion sizes and the delicious dishes!! We ordered two KFC (16pc) because we wanted two flavors. Honestly we over ordered and realized later that we could choose two flavors with one order (I think). The sweet garlic wings were my favorite. The wings are so crispy and HUGE, i loved every bite! I enjoyed that it didn't taste TOO fried. We also got the grilled beef kimbap and it was MASSIVE. The crispy and spicy fries were such a shock. They were super saucy but still very crispy, the flavor was very good!The servers were very attentive and took good care of us. The restaurant itself is kind of small but we got seated right away.

Came in at 3.05 pm but they still let us order from the lunch special menu (cut off time 3 PM)Was about to order three main course and the chicken side dish but the server informed us that portions was quite big. Luckily, we listen to her because our party of 3 couldn't even finish the two main course plus chicken dish. Food was great and portion size. Amazing. Definitely recommend recommended.

Chan Chan Huntington Beach. 헌팅톤 비치에 새로 오픈한 Chan Chan 한국 레스토랑을 가다. Surf City HB엔 한국 가게, 레스토랑이 드물다. HMart가 들어온다고 포스타 붙었지만 아직 오픈하지 않았다. 찬찬 레스토랑은 어바인에 이어 두번째로 비치 불르바드에 규카쿠 일식집 옆 비지니스 빌딩가에 자리잡은 깨끗하고 작은 식당이다. 영 한국 청년이 친절하게 서브한다. 어떤 집일가? 메뉴를 폰으로 찍어보니 해물 짬뽕류, 어묵과 김밥, 치큰 뎀부라.. 일식과 중식이 뒤섞인듯 모던 한식집이라 결론내며 Seafood spicy noodles/짬뽕 두 그릇, 어묵 누들과 김밥과 치큰 뎀부라를 주문. 반찬으로 무짠지, 흰무설탕초조��림, 마요캐배지와 호배추김치무침을 까만 종지에 이쁘게 내오다. 결론: 일식과 한식의 중간레벨의 짬뽕은 해물이 가득한 기름기없는 국물은 그야말로 일식 한식 중간에 스파게티 누들로 맛있었다. 맵고 짙은 한식 양념이 덜 댕길때나 달큰 일식도 싫증 날때에 꼭 맞는 스타일이다. 백인이 주 인구인 헌팅톤 비치에서 디센트한 에이시안 음식 찾는 비치 피플들에게 어필 할듯해 보였다.

I went on a Saturday for lunch and the place was pretty empty at noon. It got slightly busier as the day went on. I would describe Chan Chan as fast casual Korean food. Their specialty is the fried chicken but the menu had several other food items and plenty of pastas. We ordered the fried chicken wings and the rose pasta. The fried chicken has several choices for sauces, some sweet, some spicy. I opted to have the sauce on the side since I don't like my wings drenched in sauce. The waitress knew I was debating between 2 sauces so she brought both out on the side for me. I got the sweet garlic and the Chan Chan house special. Both were tasty. The sweet garlic was a non spicy sauce and the Chan Chan had a slight kick to it and I would describe it as more of a soy garlic sauce. The Rose pasta was very rich and creamy and spicier than the wings but very tasty. Portion sizes were on the large side.The restaurant is located in a strip mall next to a gym. One side of the parking lot is one hour parking and the other is 2 hours so choose wisely! The restaurant is not that big so I anticipate it to be crowded during the week for lunch. The staff was super friendly and attentive. I would come back!

An excellent Korean restaurant!The food here at Chan Chan is great! I tried the spicy seafood rice cakes and they were so yummy. The restaurant gives a generous portion that you could easily make 2 meals out of. It's not too spicy so if you're scared about the spicy title it's not too bad and doesn't hurt your mouth. It's a little salty, but when I reheated it back at home I just added a little more water and sugar and it was perfect. Their rice cakes are also so soft and chewy. The texture is really nice. I also tried the Chan Chan Kimbap which seems to be their house special Kimbap. It was very good. I loved how the ingredients are overflowing out of the sides so you get a little extra of the filling. Great rice texture and great nori texture. Another thing I loved about this restaurant is their sauces. If you get the chicken please make sure to try their house garlic sauce. It's delicious and super garlicky. The staff here are really nice and will ask any questions you have about the menu. They'll even be able to identify menu items based on yelp photos if you don't know which dish is which.I can't wait to return here and try more dishes.

Been recommended by family to try out Chan Chan.Located in the same plaza as Gyu Kaku/Subculture Sandwiches in HB, this little corner restaurant is a great new addition to the plaza.We ordered their gimbap for takeout. I opted for the beef gimbap. It came with a couple of dips and a side of pickled radish. The beef gimbap had really good flavor. Meat was very tender and not at all chewy. Ingredients used were very fresh. Only downside is that the gimbap is very pricey compared to the ones you can get in Garden Grove. Regardless, still very good!

We came on a Friday and there was no wait/line so that was really good! We ordered 3 things and it left us feeling very satisfied! The ambiance was a bit sad Idk, they played sad music and I was just really sad LOL Tenders: 3/5 the chicken has a tempura battered that were a bit plain and it wasn't super crunchy either. However, the sauce did make up for it but it was a bit runny so it did not stick the chicken Seafood noodles soup: 5/5 GET IT WITH FRESH NOODLES! This dish was so fulfilling and the taste has a STRONG seafood flavor which I really like. Perfect amount of spice and the proteins in there are pretty good and reasonable amount! Kimchi fried rice: 4/5 really kimchi fried rice but it didn't WOW me. Simple dish that left me feeling satisfied

Definitely my go to spot when I wanna treat myself to some GOOD ARSE FRIED CHICKEN!!! The crunch, the flavor, the juiciness!!! AHHH!! The workers here are so nice too! I usually order online for takeout and last time I just walked through the door and the person up front came to help me immediately! Lol they are very attentive and friendly :). I usually get the rose rice cakes with wide glass noodles and their Chan Chan chicken. This order will last me about 2-3 days because the portions are pretty generous. Whenever I walk in, it looks like there are a fair amount of tables available for anyone looking to dine alone or for a group of 6 or less. Chan Chan is honestly one of the few places I highly recommend for all my friends to try! It's just so good!!!!

Always get friendly service here. Our group loves to come here for good eats and catching up. The staff have been pretty patient with us and come to check up on us often to make sure we have everything we need
