Oppa Korean Fried Chicken

OPPA has a fan for life. It took me a while to finally catch the pop-up out in the wild at the NOLA night market in Westwego. I was so glad when I finally sampled their chicken! It's so delicious, crunchy and saucy. The flavor is just right. Phi the owner is awesome as well. Super hardworking and really loves what he does. You can taste the love in the chicken! I can't wait for them to open up their storefront.

Even though the place was busy it did not take very long for us to get our to-go order. The place is small with few tables inside and a couple of tables outside. Our order was the Double Kombo, as recommended by the friendly cashier, which included 12 pieces of wings, 2 fountain drinks, 2 daikon, 2 sauces and fries. Instead of regular fries we added the Bulgogi fries. Unfortunately, they forgot to double on the daikon and the sauce.We did half of our wings in Spicy Korean and the other half in Honey Garlic. The Spicy Korean is not spicy and the Honey Garlic did not have much of a garlic taste. The flavors were not bold but I did like the texture of the batter they use. We did not use the sauce because it didn't add any additional flavor to our food and I am not sure of what the intended flavor is supposed to be because I can not describe it as sweet or spicy, perhaps more of a mayo, mustard and ketchup mix. The Bulgogi fries were a good portion and is topped with meat,green onions and cheese and is what we enjoyed mpre than the wings.

I had high hopes for Oppa KFC but it falls flat of being truly great. Their menu is very simple which is usually a good thing, but the flavors aren't that great. We got the family plan, which gives an opportunity to have one of each of the flavors. This also comes with four drinks and one of each of their fries (bulgogi and regular). The fries were very soggy and needed to be cooked a little longer. Fries pretty generic.Since the flavors aren't anything special, I would have much gather have a plain version with Korean spices similar to what you get at other KFC establishments like k.bbq. The amount of Daikon given is laughable. A tiny little cup of daikon. For the price it isn't worth it. Store is very small as it has taken over the store front that Wishing Town was in. There's a little bit of seating but not too much. I'm sad. I wanted this place to be good but it is just not that good. Would I eat here again? Maybe. But I would have to be pretty desperate.

Love love love these soy garlic wings. I decided to check out their pop up when they were outside of wishing town bakery a few months ago. I also ended up getting the kimchi fries. Everything was so good! I could finish all of my wings and had some left over for the next day. I think the best thing about these wings is that when you reheat them they still tasted great! I can't wait for them to open their restaurant !

Daughter and I chilling at Oppa on a Sunday afternoon. This place is great. The wings are super crispy and the Bulgogi fries are unique and flavorful. The wonderful staff makes the experience even better! Check it out!

Some of the best chicken I've had in New Orleans. That's a big deal considering I'm an avid Manchu & wingsnack person. Tried it at the fried chicken fest.

Some of the best fried chicken I've ever had. Really love the unique flavors and how crispy the chicken is. It's not super common to get this is type of crunch in most fried chicken joints. I've been to Korea myself and tried the chicken there and I have to say this is a pretty close comparison. Love the environment and how friendly and helpful the staff is. Really excited to see them grow in the future!!

The food is the best chicken in New Orleans and the service is unbeatable can't wait to go back for more it's in such a convenient spot it's my little ones new favorite place as well he loved the atmosphere, will be coming back

Tried this place on their grand opening, the only complaint I have is the prices. But this place just opened so hopefully in due time the prices can be more reasonable. I spent around $21 for a 6pc fries + drink, however the quality is spot on and you get your moneys worth in my opinion. Overall if you have the money, give this place a shot, the food is great, the ambience is great and the workers have a great attitude!

I went to Oppa KFC today. Wings ARE good - taste and quality I skipped any sides I'll say it below. I'm not sure how $11.95 for 6 wings is justifiable I'm not sure that $5 for fries (50%) the price of the wings is justifiable12 wings would have been $20!!! That's just ridiculous. So figure if you get 6 wings, fries, kimchi sauce (1) and IF you get a drink $3.5011.95 + 5.00+1.25+ 3.50That's $21.70Now imagine if you were buying for 2!At that price you can get a lot more with service. That's a bit steep for what the food is. BUT I suppose a lot of people are used to overpaying. It is a tasty wing but pricing needs some realistic adjustments. I personally will not be going back based on pricing alone. If they want continuous higher volume patronage, consider a better pricing structure. I left hungry.
