Don Chicken

Tried the soy garlic Korean fried chicken drumsticks today for lunch at Don Chicken located at the food court at HMart. It was . The chicken was so crunchy and crispy and moist. The sauce mix was delicious and not overpowering and just the right amount enough. Not to light and not drench or too much that it would be overpowering or leave your hands a mess. Also really liked the recipe they have for the coleslaw. Would return again.

THE BIG: Located in Cedar Park inside the H Mart food court. Tucked away in the corner of the food court, you can't miss the smells emanating from this food stall. Parking is relegated to the parking lot.THE BLACK AND WHITE: Everytime I go to the H Mart in Cedar Park, I always check out the food court and Don's Chicken KFC always wonder how good their chicken is. They have a bunch of different flavors like regular, sweet and spicy, spicy, cheese, spicy soy garlic. Since I'm slightly lactose, I try to avoid anything cheesey. I got the medium spicy soy garlic, and the sauce was great, however the crunch of the KFC resembled a single fry rather than the renowned double fried, super crunchy exterior with juicy chicken flesh interior. The sides were a sad portion of pickled radish.THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, for a medium spicy soy garlic wings, it came out to be around $18. Not a bad KFC place, however there are better spots in Austin in my opinion.

Was at H Mart to grab some last-minute groceries. Decided to eat in the food court and tried out Don Chicken. The person at the register was busy on his phone and didn't even acknowledge me until a minute later. Ordered my food and sat back down at my table. The chicken was kind of tough and dry. The sauce was decent, but they are heavy-handed with it. The fried chicken was okay-- nothing to special about it-- the coleslaw was refreshing and helped with the fried food. I don't know if I would try it again after this, just due to how the chicken was cooked.

Large portions the sauces are tasty. Second time coming here and the cashiers seemed bothered and rude. Weird that if you order the individual combos you cannot choose any sauce. Why are there 2 diff kinds of fries? Chicken is good sides are meh.

Review is for take-out via GrubHub with a travel time of less than 10 minutes.My order wasn't ready when I got there but I only had to wait five minutes. They brought it out to me where I was sitting in the H-Mart food court, which was very considerate.The value is quite nice for this Korean Fried Chicken. Five drumsticks (medium) easily fed two people. I made some vegetables at home to go with it, not realizing they included some complimentary pickled radish (great to cut the heat!)The chicken overall is a 3.5/5. It was still crispy even doing take-out, but some pieces were juicer than others. One was extremely stringy while another was massive and perfectly tender. I'd say it's hit or miss but overall, the value is great.

Great place for a quick, tasty bite - Hop Queen got the fried dumplings, and demolished them before I could get a picture. That ought to tell you about the how good they are - by the time I thought, "I should take a picture for my Yelp review", there were just some sad little crumbs rolling around in the tray. Order at the counter, take pager to table, return to pick up tasty, tasty snack when pager goes off. Then head into H Mart for more foodie goodness.

Average KFC in my opinion. The wings were huge so value wise it was good but the flavor was just okay. Definitely something in this chicken to be this big and unnatural. Did Soy Garlic as the rub, again it was okay but had better. Run of the mills fries. I actually really liked the coleslaw so that was surprising. There's a bb.q Chicken right outside Hmart which may be a better option but anyway, this was okay.

First time trying Korean Chicken and my expectations were pretty high. I ordered soy garlic wings and the hot and spicy drumsticks. Starting with the pros, both orders were beyond filling for one person each. While it was a bit pricey, definitely felt like I got my moneys worth based on the quantity.I ordered the meal via Doordash, so I was afraid the chicken would be soggy but was pleasantly surprised that it was still very warm and had some crispiness to it despite being smothered in sauce. What I didn't like: The chicken drumsticks were HUGE, as in unnaturally so. I've seriously never had a chicken drumstick so big and the flavor was definitely not hot enough. Instead it had more sweet undertones that overpowered the spice in my opinion.So was this the best fried chicken I've had? Not by a long mile but I'm interested in trying more flavors in the future to see what I like better!

Overcooked chicken. It's easy to burn chicken but it's harder to Cook chixken with crispy skin and juicy inside . Not worth my trip . Stay away. You guys are giving a bad name to a good Korean Fried Chicken !!

I used to love Don Chicken, but it was just really bad today. All of the coating fell off and so the meat of the chicken was exposed to the oil and burnt in several places. It wasn't moist at all. The fries were ok, but the chicken is why I was there and I was so disappointed. The guy at the counter could've been friendlier. He was sitting down and playing on the phone as I walked up. Fine, I get it. But he acted annoyed that I was ordering and not friendly in the slightest. He just kind of slapped my little beeper down on the cash register drawer instead of handing it to me. It was really weird. Then the chicken was naked 90% of the surface area and burnt (literally black) in several spots. I wish I would've ate somewhere else. Wasted money and food.
