K Soul Chicken

This is the best Korean fried chicken I've had! They use high quality, fresh chicken that's fried with a nice crispy crunch and the inside is still kept really nice and moist. I highly recommend the #1. GALBI CHICKEN.I was shocked by the quality of this place and I will DEFINITELY be back. What a wonderful gem of a business!

Drunken chronicles - once upon a time I was bar hopping with some friends and obviously get the munchies. Stumbled into k soul chicken to satisfy (in reality absorb all the alcohol) the crave. This place is like an oasis - feed my Seoul! I got the original with no sugar please with hella mustard. Ommm nom nom nom - nummy nummy. Piping hot, crispy and perfectly cooked in the middle. I actually couldn't taste it, so I need another one... Yup! It's that good! Service was quick or maybe I didn't notice because of the good company.Will I come again? Sure, but it's not one of those places to go on a regular. Fried food everyday can't be good for you, or maybe it is?

Tell me why when I first opened the delivery box of galbi boneless chicken and stabbed what I thought was a French fry with my fork, I literally did a chew double-take and removed the tteokbokki from my mouth because my taste buds were so thrown off from what I was expecting. I really should've known better, but I'm accustomed to seeing tteokbokki drenched in a gochujang based sauce, so they deceptively resembled fries. To be fair, from this experience, I learned they taste way better dry and seasoned, but I digress. Onto the main part of the review...As I've written in a couple other reviews this week, I'm "researching" the best Korean fried chicken spots in San Francisco to determine which to order from for an upcoming Friendsgiving. I looked up a ton of options in the city and narrowed them down to a shortlist of 3 spots, this place included. A few things I examined to create my short list were varieties/flavours of chicken, quantity to price ratio, other customer ratings, images of the chicken, and proximity to my neighborhood or deliverability to my friends' neighborhood where the Friendsgiving will be hosted. When I took the first bite of K Soul chicken, I knew I'd found a winner. I'm very particular about KFC having spent the last few years living in LA and Orange County, home to copious dedicated KFC restaurants. K Soul's chicken tastes the most similar to my favourite spots in SoCal. It has the perfect texture and crunch, the meat is neither dry nor greasy, and the umami flavor is on point. They've created a perfectly balanced KFC, and that's why I'll be taking this to Friendsgiving.

A bit salty but tasty! The chicken has a rich flavor but is a little too salty for my taste. If they adjusted that, it'd be perfect! The place is comfortable and clean.

Delicious flavor! The seasoning on the batter is great, and the meat stays juicy. I love the drumsticks--soft yet slightly chewy. Reasonable price and spacious seating.

While the overall chicken tasted OK, the outside of it lacked complete flavor and it really did not justify the ten block walk that we did there. As this is a KFC place, they heavily promote the fact that you can add sauces to your chicken, but I feel like your chicken should be able to hold its own. So the fact that I needed to add sauce to make it taste good, made me really uncomfortable.We didn't add anything extra to our meal. We just had the chicken and they threw in some Yucca fries which were kind of weird tasting. I won't be back, but if I do come back, I'll probably try the one with the cheese on it.

The K fried chicken was saucy, sticky and delicious!! A great place to share chicken with friends! The corn dog was okay, but a fun experience. I am a big fan of this place after a couple drinks with friends. I highly recommend! We were a loud bunch, but the service was kind and helpful!

As a Korean who's constantly disappointed by Korean food in the states, this was the first time I actually felt transported back home. The ddukbokki flavor is spot on, just like how my mom makes them. The rice cakes that come with every chicken order are such a fun touch too. I ordered through Uber Eats and was surprised to find the chicken still crispy. I personally liked the garlic seasoning over the yangnyeom.

I came here with a group of 4 on a Friday night around 6:15pm and we got seated right away. There aren't too many tables though, maybe enough for 5-6 groups. I did see many people just order take out. We ordered: - half Galbi chicken- half yang nyum chicken- ddeokbokki - 3 beers and 1 soju I liked the galbi chicken the most! It was very flavorful with lots of garlic on it. The yang nyum was good as well and also quite flavorful but didn't have a special taste to it, I felt like it was similar to a lot of other flavored korean fried chicken that has go chu jang as a base in the sauce. The ddeokbokki was quite delicious though! It got more spicy as we ate and came with other things like dumplings which was nice. When the shot glasses were brought over, we also asked for beer cups and the waiter was nice he explained the lines on the cup to help mix the beer and soju.Service was pretty fast too, overall this was a nice place to satisfy our korean fried chicken cravings.

Fried chicken isn't just fried chicken. So many different cultures have their way of doing it. I haven't decided which way is my favorite yet. It would be hard to say that Korean fried chicken wasn't in the running. You can see everything I had here. Before I've also had one of their original fried chicken offerings with the jalapeño and garlic sauce. I tried a few new things this time. The chicken sandwich didn't stack up to the elites in the city. The fries were fries. The corn dog was great. You don't find these everywhere. These put regular corn dogs to shame. Highly recommend. I like the regular fried chicken the most but the price is a little high. They do know what they are doing in here though. It's a no frills place. They get you your stuff pretty quick and hot. Can't complain about that. Just a real solid neighborhood fried chicken spot. What's not to like?(4.0 Stars)
