CM Chicken

My go-to Korean Fried Chicken restaurant! The Snow Onion Chicken is my favorite. If you get it, I highly recommend eating the chicken with the onion and sauce all in a bite.If you really love super spicy food, I recommend the Tikkudak! Your mouth will burn so bad but it's worth it haha. Only disappointing thing is that when I've ordered delivery, sometimes it came with pickled radish and sometimes it didn't :/

I was recently here and had the garlic soy wings and my husband had half a chicken topped with green onions and lemon wasabi sauce. The batter was light and the garlic soy sauce on the wings was fantastic. I wasn't a huge fan of the lemon wasabi but my husband enjoyed it. I did not know this originally but for his order, only the green onions were tossed in sauce while the chicken underneath was served plain. Even though we dined in and ate the food right after it was served some parts of the soy garlic wings had already lost its crunchiness possibly from the steam and/or sauce.I didn't give a higher score even though I thought the garlic soy wings were pretty solid overall because towards the end of the meal there were 1-2 pieces of chicken that just tasted really off as though it was past due. I don't know if it was just me, but my husband's order seemed fine. Aside from that, the other pieces were great.

Delicious fried chicken! I recently went here to get the tikku chicken to go. The ambiance is plain but plenty of seating. Given the spiciness of the wings, I wish the store had pitchers of water available for customers if needed. I got my chicken within the promised 15 minutes and absolutely loved it. The chicken was crispy, flavorful, sweet, and spicy-make sure to have plenty of napkins! Although a bit pricy at over $18 after tax, I got a good portion. CM Chicken also has the added advantage of being by Drexel's campus and a four-block walk to 30th St. Station (and the best-looking restaurant nearby if you need food).

CM chicken is one of my favorite Korean chicken spots in Philly. I highly recommend every one visit if they're in the area! Their vibe is casual and there are plenty of seats for small and bigger groups. It is not a full service restaurant, so you order up front and wait for your food so tips are encouraged but not required! The chicken is always made to order so the food is very fresh, hot, and crispy. For a very reasonable price you can get a bunch of food. I recommend their tikkudak and crispy gizzard! Make sure to order a side of the pickled radishes because it pairs perfectly with the chicken! Highly recommend this place! They also have good deals that they promote on their instagram so make sure to follow them @cmchicken_philly

Delicious chicken with huge portions! Pro tip, tell them that you write Yelp reviews and they'll give you a free specialty drink! Each of us came starving, got either a half chicken or the tenders, and we all went home with takeout boxes. I read a number of reviews that said the chicken was mostly breading and very little meat, but we all felt that there was a good ratio of breading to lots of meat. I got the green onion tenders with soy garlic sauce. I have a terrible spice tolerance so I wanted something not spicy, but these still had a slight kick. It wasn't too bad (even for my weak taste!) but a kid with no spice tolerance would not want to eat it. I love green onion, but the way that they're sliced makes the onions a little hard to eat, so be prepared to feel slightly stupid trying to maneuver the long strands into your mouth.There's plenty of seating inside and it's all self service. They don't have complimentary water, so bring a water bottle or be prepared to purchase a drink.

Best chicken in the city. I've done several reviews of this restaurant. They hit every..........time!!!!!!!!!!, haven't had a bad thing yet. Service is excellent, expect a little wait about 20 mins per order. They cook everything fresh so it's well worth the wait. If your in a rush, order online and it will be ready when you arrive. Portion size is well the time and money. My favorite sauce for the chicken is the curry and mild garlic.

Ordering wings is better than the whole chicken. Tikku Garlic Soy has a spiciness to it, good flavor. Original Honey Garlic wings has a slight sweetness to it, but not much of a garlic flavor. The wings came out fresh and crunchy. The spicy gizzards are a must! Be warned that it has heat to it! I would pass on the Cheese Monster Fries... the cheese powder on top tastes very artificial and I didn't like that the powder was on the sweeter side.

I've been wanting to come here for a while now. I've got a couple of things to say about this place, lol. The chicken is delicious and very crispy, lol. I give them that. The only thing I didn't like was that I felt like there wasn't much chicken on the bone itself. Like I felt like I was eating a lot of flavorful skin. If that was different, I feel like it would put this place over the top. But I don't feel it's their just yet. I do like their sauces and flavor options, though. The honey garlic is delicious!The service here is good. If I were you, I would order ahead cause we ordered to go inside the restaurant. We waited about 15-20 minutes for it. That's seems to be the case if you order inside. Maybe I came at a busy time, but everyone else who ordered to-go was waiting a while.The vibe in here is chill. It's in a good location and close to cira Green. That's where we went to eat our chicken. Come check it out.

This is our favorite Korean fried chicken place in Philly - garlic spicy is a must try! Friendly service and spacious interior are bonus.

Lunch special still delicious and worthwhile -- I believe it's 11-2Also a place you can work at with WIFI and outlets for 3 tables
