KoChix

Utterly surprised I don't already have a review for one of my fav spots in DC! Kochix is a locally-owned Korean fried chicken spot. This should become one of your regular spots for ordering out.Their drumsticks and wings are ginormous and delicious. My go-to orders are the 10 wings, half hot honey spicy and half honey lemon pepper. They're always nice and crisp and easily heated up for a future meal in my air fryer. I don't love their fries, but their onion rings are tasty. Even better are their corn nuggets! They're corn fritters with whole corn inside, a corn lovers dream lolThis is a crowd pleaser as I've served them to friends and coworkers. Alas, there isn't really space to eat here aside from a short counter against a wall. It's located near the corner of Rhode Island and Florida, so not the most scenic corner of the city, but very much worth the trip or delivery order!

LOVE Kochix! I crave these wings often. Ordered on DoorDash but have also been to pick up an order on my own after that.The wings are a great size, as a ton of wing places are skimping and giving you the tiniest scrawny little wings.They're so crunchy and the sauces are good, definitely recommend the honey lemon pepper and soy garlic. They're not your typical wing joint chicken wings as they're more Korean style. Love the wings and will be ordering again in the future!If you want to grab them, be warned not a lot of parking in Shaw and no indoor seating or anything, just a counter. Great quality though!

I really don't understand the hype. I walked in your typical hole in the wall and was immediately greeted. Instagram and the world HYPED these wings. I ordered 10 fried high ended up being $20. Shocked the heck outta me. The "ADMIN" fee really bothered me. I can only imagine if I had a larger order. The wings were much larger than one would expect, came out piping hot but overall AVERAGE. Lacked seasoning. Simple carry out wings. I opted out of the sauce and I could do without honey and soy sauce on chicken.Decent spot but to expensive for carry out wings to me.

Very unsuspecting spot on the corner, but those are my faves! It's a carry out vibe for sure, but the gentleman who assisted me was extremely nice and had a welcoming demeanor. I had been there once before years ago and I must say that I recall the chicken being slightly more life changing. I ordered their new lemon pepper wings and their spicy honey wings. The lemon pepper wings were very good, 4.5/5; however, I am a spicy food fanatic and the spicy wings had little to no heat at all; making them a 3/5 for me. I also got a side of fries, which were amazing. Tasted like they were tossed in a light lemon pepper seasoning mix. Overall, chicken wings are my kryptonite, so I will be returning.

It was good and surprisingly quick. The meat portions for the wings were meaty. The flavors offered are more sweet than savory, but I think that's more so on me. I ended up getting lemon pepper and soy garlic. The soy garlic was too saucy and more of a glaze. I guess I could have had plain. Would go back

This isn't an eat in, but the service was good and to the point. Again, another restaurant that I've passed repeatedly and hadn't tried. I'm going to assume the owner was who took my order and he was very friendly, loved his energy! The food was great! Be prepared, you will smell like a fryer if you sit in and wait for your order lol; it's a small space. We got honey spicy and soy garlic wings.... SO GOOD. Got fries too... they were fries. I'll be back!

I've never tried Korean chicken and unfortunately, there's very few Korean restaurants where I flew from (Florida) so after picking coffee for a relative and while it was almost 8pm, I decided to visit and try some of their Korean chicken wings. I love me some chicken wings, but THESE wings? The best chicken wings I've ever tasted in my life! I myself am trying to eat more Korean dishes but wow, their chicken wings are immaculate. I kinda wish I took a photo of the wings but I was starving when I got my hotel lol. Thank you, Kochix! I'll be back next time I visit D.C.

Hands down the best Korean fried chicken I've had in the area. Crispy double fried juicy chicken and the sauces are delicious.

This shit slaps. As long as you're not an idiot and order your wings with sauce, you cannot be disappointed. Crunchy and sticky-- this is the best korean fries chicken you can get in DC. Garlic soy sauce is the best imo. Service was fast!

Definitely the best chicken in the DMV!!! Employees are so nice, and gave us a new box of wings after we dropped them. Highly recommend
