Left Wing - San Jose

Great service, clean place, nice menu.Ordered kimchi arancini and it was quite delicious. Loved the creamy sauce but honestly didn't need it as the balls were flavorful all by themselves.We did a mix order of soy garlic chili and honey butter garlic fried chicken with bone in. Well seasoned, meaty pieces and definitely enough to feed 3-4 people (we were a party of 2). I had the next day - popped in air fryer and still as tasty. The honey butter was the fav for me. Soy garlic chili had a nice kick.The only down side was our fries were a little cold and dry and the soju cocktail didn't quite hit the spot (tasted the syrup) so I guess mix well before pouring.Other than that I'd love to try the other fusion dishes.

THIS PLACE GETS 5 BIG BOOMS!!My friends and I went over to Santana Row to shop and we noticed that we were really hungry. We suddenly remembered hearing about a Korean fried chicken spot that was somewhere in the area so we walked around until we found it. We were seated right away and decided to order their Army Stew and Soy Chili Garlic Wings! The Army Stew was so good and flavorful! They gave us two whole packs of noodles and unlimited broth! The stew came with so many items inside it such as large dumplings, kimchi, sausage pieces, and much more! The Soy Chili Garlic Wings were also so good and came with fries! However, I do wish the wings were a little more crunchy.We were seated right away and got our food in about 10 minutes so not too long at all! My friends and I were also greeted by the owner of the restaurant! He kept making sure we were doing good and is a super nice guy. Since we were all 21 he gave us a drink on the house! He definitely made our dining experience great and we definitely hope to run into him again the next time we come to this spot.The place is very clean and modern. You can order on an iPad which makes things easy. The bathrooms were also super clean as well! I will for sure come back to grab food here!

Came on a Friday night, and the place is not very big with limited seating. It was pretty packed, with most tables taken, but we arrived just in time and managed to get seated. We ordered the rose tteokbokki and fried chicken in honey butter garlic, bone-in. The flavors were pretty good, and they provided gloves for the fried chicken, which is always a must! The bathroom was clean, and there is a parking garage across the street, though it might be hard to find a spot on a busy day.

Left Wing is a surprising find here in Santana Row. The BBQ Beef Bowl I got was great, don't forget to order it sizzling, where it comes out on a hot plate, fried egg on top and a whole lot of goodness! We also ordered the chicken wings with original recipe but all the sauces on the side, it made it easy to sample the different flavors without having to commit to one. The service really stood out to me here, they took great care of us and made suggestions if needed. The part of the ambiance we enjoyed the most was the outdoor patio section so we could bring our dog along.

Juicy, crispy wings and drums! I highly recommend getting the kalbi, so tender. The bibimbap was okay. I visited twice so far and both around 11 am to noon. There's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. You can find parking in any of the multiple parking garages at Santana Row. Service was inconsistent across the two times I ate here. During the first time, the server put the finishing touches to our kalbi and gave us gloves and wet wipes for our wings. She was not as attentive with water or our bill. During the second time we came here, we had a different server and we had to ask for a menu to order. He gave us a tablet and I didn't realize until after we ordered that the kalbi was on the menu on the wall but not available to order on the tablet. He was attentive with our water and bill but just gave us the bibimbap to mix ourselves. Perhaps that depends on the restaurant, more often than not, the server would bring the bibimbap and mix it for us at the table. I love coming to Santana Row and it's great to have a Korean fried chicken place here!

First time trying left wing. My friends and I went on a Saturday afternoon. There was a bit of a wait as the restaurant is limited on seating. We ordered the wings with fries and they were really good. They offer gloves and plenty of napkins. Definitely a competitive Korean wing place in San Jose. There is a clean restroom inside. The staff was really friendly and helpful. Parking is limited to the local garages.

Being located in Santana Row is great for business, with steady foot traffic throughout the week. The outdoor seating is always something I notice when passing by, and this place typically operates at about 80% capacity after 4 PM.My wife and I decided on the Soy Chili Garlic Fried Chicken and the Bulgogi Bowl. I was craving something crunchy, and she wanted something with rice and beef. The atmosphere was elevated by some fantastic Korean music playing in the background, so much so that I added a few tracks to my Spotify playlist to check out later. The waitstaff greeted us warmly and offered several pre-cleaned tables, but we preferred the counter seating along the wall since we didn't need a full table. The waiter quickly wiped down the counter for us and even asked if he missed a spot, which my wife found incredibly thoughtful.If you're into Korean fried chicken, this spot won't disappoint. While I'm a big BonChon fan, I'd say this place doesn't quite reach the heights of Von's Chicken, BBQ Chicken at Apple Park, or Modak Chicken--but it's a solid option for a quick bite in the area. It may have a smaller footprint, but the breaded texture of their chicken is on point--crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside, and never dry or overcooked. The flavor options are limited but straightforward, which makes choosing easy.One thing that caught us off guard was when we ordered a drink halfway through our meal. We wanted to take it to go, but it came in a bottle that you could easily get from a vending machine for much cheaper. We initially wanted to try the peach drink but ended up settling for a lemon one instead.As for parking, there's plenty around the restaurant, though I'd recommend parking near the Century Theater's underground lot. You'll probably have to navigate through some foot traffic to reach the entrance.Overall, I'd like to come back and try something different next time. Our visit was spontaneous, but there's definitely more on the menu we're curious about.

Everything was so flavorful, the arancini were crispy and the sauce was delicious. Everything was really very good. Chill music on the background, and the server was super responsive. Great holiday weekend lunch!

FoodKimchi Arancini - $14 Fried with a crispy breading, piping hot, and had a subtle Kimchi fried rice filling with cheddar cheese mornay sauce, and parmesan. It wasn't spicy at all and if you like cheese sauce, this is a good appetizer to order. Half & Half - Honey Soy Garlic, Soy Chili Garlic - $36Served with pickle radish and French friesThe Honey Soy Garlic wings were so good! It had a nice coating and wasn't too thick. The glaze had a nice sweet and savory taste. The Soy Chili Garlic was a bit too salty to my liking and would pass on this. The French fries were crispy and a good portion to accompany to wings. Kalbijjim (with cheese) - $35 It was served with authentic braised short ribs, radish, carrot, and mushrooms. The cheese was flame torched by the employee. The short ribs were tender chunks, the sauce was rich, slightly sweet and spicy. It was accompanied with rice. The dish can easily be shared among 2-3 people. Customer ServiceThe servers were very friendly, accommodating, attentive, and checked-in throughout the dining experience. Ambiance/Location There's both indoor and outdoor seating options. It was very casual with stool-like seats and a covered patio. It is located next door to Mendocino Farms and there's two under garage parking options within walking distance.

Dakgalbi is great! Nice ambience! Chef is from Hawaii creating the sauces by himself!
