CooCooCachoo

The heaven for fried chicken lovers! The triple sampler is a great deal. For $15 you get tater tots, chicken nuggets and chicken tender. Fried wings were crunchy, juicy and flavorful. Grilled chicken was a great option for people who want a healthy but still delicious meal. The tropical burger was insanely good if you enjoy the combination of sweet pineapple and savory grilled chicken. Beijing style wrap was loaded with crispy fried chicken.

I was skeptical since there were some low reviews, but after eating today I really enjoyed my meal. For a combo meal of the signature fried chicken sandwich, truffles fries and a drink, the price is pretty cheap for LIC. Also, the amount of the fries they give you is a lot. I would come back again!

This is a new fried chicken joint in the Court Square area of Long Island City. There’s a couple tables inside but I just stopped by for takeout. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich called Coo Coo on Fire which was pretty good and not crazy spicy like the menu would imply. The slice of tomato and lettuce that were placed inside the sandwich looked very tiny and sad (see photo) - so a bit disappointed on that front for a chicken sandwich for $10. I’ll try other items on their menu but hopefully they don’t skimp on everything.

For a quick bite this is the place. We went during the afternoon wasn’t too packed. Order the popcorn chicken, truffle fries, and spam musabi. Popcorn chicken was cooked to perfection, it came out very crisp. (Would go back for chicken). The truffle fries are okay, the mayo is what gives it more of the truffle flavor. Also note the fries do not travel well at all and get soggy quickly so suggest eating fries when eating at the location, not take out. Spam Musabi was great, but I wish the rice to spam ratio was a bit more spam to a little less rice, personally. Smaller note: Wish the A/C could have been stronger, today was hot. Also very small dining in space for probably max 8 ppl, bathroom was clean.

we were excited to try coocoocahoo since it just opened, but there were so many issues with our experience - i assume because they are newly opened. the katsu doesn’t come with rice, so it’s only a big piece of chicken (not cut either- you have to ask them to cut it). the spam misubi did not have the right ratio of rice… it was a big ball of rice and the spam was not seared at all. the best thing we got by far was the wings (we got the garlic & the hot and spicy), but they forgot to give us half the wings.

Terrible customer service here, always make mistakes with orders. I ordered a chicken bowl and specifically asked if the chicken was the same as the friend chicken sandwich and got a “Yes”. Picked up my order and found that chicken bowl was grilled chicken. When I asked why I got grilled chicken, I got a “It’s grilled after being fried” which it clearly isn’t. Also almost forgot the truffle sauce and an extra soda I ordered. Quality also seemed not as good compared to the first couple times I went last year.

This is totally waste of my money.. just ordered a their “ signature” chicken sandwich however I couldn’t even eat more than two more bites after biting some weird part of brown meat. I started to question if this is even a chicken meat. I was hungry and this place was fast and close by but I would never order from here again. DO NOT EAT from here. So gross, the picture said all about it🤮🤮🤮

Came with a friend for dinner. It’s an Asian style burger place serving classic fried chicken burger and some special flavors. The fried chicken was outstanding. And the wrap was big! Fries was fine. I won’t recommend. It could be a little bit more crispy. I had yuzu roasted wings to go the other day, it was delicious too. However, I found some of the piece was a little bit bloody inside, near the bone.

Stopped by Coo Coo Cachoo after spotting Artisan on their sign, only to find out they only carry a small selection of Artisan drinks -- maybe about eight options? A bit of a letdown since I was hoping for more variety, especially their desserts (I wanted to try that tiramisu). The person behind the counter was super friendly. My friend and I both tried their mochi drinks I got the pistachio mochi, and he went with the taro mochi. Pro tip: asking for less ice doesn't cost extra, which is always a win. Flavor-wise, the drinks were solid. My pistachio mochi was a respectable 7/10 -- good but not mind-blowing. My friend rated his taro mochi an 8 or 9 out of 10, so clearly, he was more impressed. The mochi itself was great. Overall, I'll rate this place a 4 out of 5.

Very cute place. Portions are massive. Wait time is a bit long but you get a good meal. Really good fried chicken and a good selection. I think the menu rotates fairly often. Space is not big but a couple of tables and decorated well. Confy. If it were bigger it would be one of those places people pull out the latop and work all day. Staff is polite whenever I go in there. Love having it right in town and easy to get to. Also right bear the bookstore so lunch there and then the book store is a good way to kill a few hours. Only taking a star off because sometimes the wait is more than I expect. But not terrible. Just dont be in a hurry and if you order ahead then you should be fine.

Yummy fried chicken! A lot more tender than Sweet Chick. I love that it's crispy on the outside and moist inside. Comes with a small side salad. I like to order the tenders to-go, and eat them with rice and Kewpie mayo.

For months I've been walking past CooCooCachoo staring at the delicious looking chicken in the posters and not stopping in to try it. Today I gave in to temptation. I kinda, sorta wish I hadn't. Here's why. I ordered the chicken thigh with the extra crispy skin-even though I'm not a fan of dark meat. The pics just looked sooo good. No sides. The chicken is very tender, much more juicy than crispy and it comes in a cute cardboard box. It appears to be more of a large quarter chicken portion than it does a thigh, pounded flat and prepared well done. Again, the chicken is wonderfully juicy but whatever brine or marinade that's used to season it was just not it. Too much rice wine vinegar, plain vinegar or something! The marinade was in fact so overpowered by vinegar that my taste buds felt stripped and I couldn't get rid of the aftertaste no matter what I tried. I actually bought a pint of white rice from a nearby food truck to calm some of the tangy flavor. It helped, a little. The chicken skin which was the draw was kind of thick and would probably taste better and have a better texture if it were just served crispy, without the sauce. I'm still glad that I tried it, instead of just guessing on whether or not I would like it. I would advise readers of this review to try CooCooCachoo. They have a chicken sandwich on the menu that looks pretty good. Maybe I'll try it myself. Hold the briny sauce!

Service is bad. The food is worse. The cashier is so rude and couldn't be bothered, poor customer service. Usually we don't care if the service is bad as long as the food is decent, but that isnt the case here. The wings are nasty. 12$ for 6 pieces wings, Charged too much money for soggy, overly sweet, mushy and gross. Even the hot sauce we had at home could not salvage it. Rank foul-ass wings Not surprised this place is always empty when we pass it in the street. The food is disgusting. Do not waste your money, do not waste your time. GROSS

A delicious fried chicken place with a fun vibe is now in LIC. Their fried chicken sandwich easily rivals all those others you've already tried. If you're looking for heat get you Coo Coo on Fire. You will not be disappointed. It was almost a little too spicy for me. Make it a combo for it to try truffle or regular fries (both pretty tasty) and a can of soda. Fun menu items like chicken and waffles or "cheese waterfall" were very tempting, but I guess that will be for next time. Back to the sandwich...the chicken was fried very well and very flavorful. They were also not skimpy at all. The soft bun was a nice touch. I also love their selection of sodas. It will definitely be a struggle deciding as they have a ton of options (not included in the combo, for the combo you must select from one of the cans at the register). The person staffing the register was nice and was happy to chat about some of the menu after we were done eating. Loved the insight. Here's too Coo Coo Cachoo!

A cute, cozy, and trendy place that looks very inviting from the outside and inside. An extensive menu ranging from sandwiches and platters. They have sandwiches, wraps, platters, wings, fries, and tenders. I ordered their chicken katsu over rice and it came with salad and French dressing. The chicken katsu was very fried, crispy, and tender! Love the skin a lot! It was paired with well cooked rice and broccoli that was a bit undercooked and raw making it hard to chew. Salad contained iceberg lettuce, arugula, tomatoes, and cucumber that were very fresh. Ambience of this place was pretty chill and quiet. The tables and chairs were rustic and farmhouse. Ceiling is decorated with patio string lights creating an eclectic and retro feel. One of the walls is decorated with a chicken wall art along with many beer bottles placed nicely like a piece of artwork you see in an art studio. Very decorative and great food. Highly recommend.

The chicken sandwich here is soooooo good! The chicken sandwich had the perfect amount of crisp on the outside and was juicy and tender on the inside. So delicious and fresh! We had the BFF special which included 2 sandwiches (the spicy chicken sandwich and the regular chicken sandwich) for $18.99. Definitely worth it. I ate inside the restaurant but not much to say about the restaurant itself. It's small and quiet. I just came here for a quick bite. I also ordered takeout and received the same quality.

If you plan on having a sandwich you need to eat with a fork this is the place. The chicken was good and crispy. My problem was the guacamole you can tell came from a package and I don't know how old it was. It had a very strange flavor and smell. basically a slab of green glob. It made the bread so wet it fell apart. The fries were really good. The wait time was long. It was ok but I wouldn't go back.

No seasoning at all.. chicken and crust was bland. It's a shame because the chicken was juicy. Don't bother eating here

Got the combo which included sandwich, fries and drink. It was a decent order...more expensive than other fast food combos which I would compare this to. The chicken was pretty bland and could've been seasoned better or maybe I should try a spicy version. The fries were very salty...I think for the price, not necessarily worth it.

As an LIC local, after seeing the middling soft-to-early opening reviews on Yelp for many months, I was hesitant trying the sandwich options here given the nearby competition that I frequent often. Gave it a shot for takeout lunch today and I was impressed! Something must've changed between the early phases and now--I got the original "Rock CooCoo" with a side of Garlic Aioli wings--in both, the chicken was dry and crunchy on the outside, but super moist on the inside, and had a touch of (what I think) is a Taiwanese flavor touch to it, which is a nice differentiation to the other fried chicken sandwich options in the area--I believe Kuku is Korean-influenced, and Hot Chicken Takeover is straight out of Nashville. It was really tasty! I'm definitely coming back, and would give my full recommendation for what it's worth to give this place a shot.

Service good Food below average. I had wings garlic and spicy style. Not good. I don't recommend their wings at all. Just fried. Garlic aioli sauce on side and sprinkle powdered pepper on top of plain old fried wings. Blah blah blah . Not good! Ambiance ok Did not have chicken sandwich, so my review is only about crappy wings! Maybe try chicken sandwich and let us know. I live wings and this was a huge disappointment!

Honestly super solid burger. If you eat it fresh that chicken is insanely juicy and tender and portions are solid. The price is a little bit high for a single sandwich but the chicken is so solid I'd say it's worth it. Definitely will be coming back

海岛照烧鸡肉堡非常的美味。汉堡肉是比较清爽的口感，汁水多，但不是多拌了黄油的那种汁水，是鸡肉自带的汁水，鸡肉质量非常好。推荐给喜欢嘴里满是肉香的人。而且不单单是肉多，菠萝，生菜和酱料都很多很相配。蔬菜量是我见过最多的！一口咬下去，鸡肉的汁水在舌尖上绽开，岂是一个赞字了 得！

Fried chickens and wrapper coocoo are the best, taste very good. First time to visit here and the front desk dude gave many good recommendations for their fried chickens, they are awesome.

Great chicken sandwich & great customer service. This small local business is a great place to grab something unique in NY!

Got the Rock CooCoo Signature Chicken Sandwich and was pleasantly surprised! I ordered from here from an app promo and decided to go with one of their most popular items. Amazing chicken sandwich! The chicken itself was very juicy and flavorful. It wasn't soggy and was also perfectly crispy despite being a pick-up order. A pretty simple sandwich (standard lettuce, tomato, chicken, and sauce), but for some reason the simplicity helped in it being a really well-executed sandwich. No fluff, just a good chicken sandwich (even better than a lot of famous chicken sandwiches I've had). Looking forward to trying their other items!

Food is just not that good. Everything lacked flavor and didn't really have good taste. Definitely better fried chicken places elsewhere

This chicken shop is great -- tasty food served up quickly. Inside, the space is modest with enough seating for about 8 or so. Rock CooCoo: There's some serious crunch with this sandwich -- I was quite surprised by how crispy and delicious the breading was. The chicken itself was seasoned well and juicy. The sandwich had a tomato slice, lettuce, and sauce (maybe a kind of mayo). Overall, this sandwich was great (especially for the price) and gives Popeyes and Chick Fil A a run for their money. At $10, this is fairly priced. One suggestion is to be mindful of the bottom bun, which was falling apart when I was eating. Spam Musubi: At $4.50, the Spam Musubi is a bit pricy for what you get -- one musubi (rice and spam, wrapped in seaweed). Still, it's a musubi and not bad. Value: 4/5 Quality: 4/5 Quantity: 4/5 Service: 4/5 Atmosphere: 3/5

Honestly don't know why the reviews for this place are so low, it's a pretty solid chicken place imo. Favorite thing I had were the wings (garlic aioli). Not sure where the aioli part came from but they had plenty of garlic flavor, were perfectly crispy on the outside, and juicy on the inside-- zero complaints. Had the marinated pineapple chicken sandwich. They definitely could have given more pineapple and the bun got soaked pretty quickly but the chicken itself was incredibly juicy and I liked the marinade they used.

It's a pass for me. Disappointed as I love fried chicken and always want to support local businesses. The food was mediocre; my wrap was overly sauced and the chicken was not even hot. The fries weren't hot and were bland. The diet coke they gave me was warm and when I opened the can, it exploded and spilled everywhere. They didn't even offer me a new one as they watched me struggle trying to contain the explosion whilst cleaning it up at the same time. If you're going to open up a business in LIC, make sure you fine tune the small details or risk being closed within the next several months.

Buns are cold and fried chicken sandwich is unmemorable. The store concept is pretty cute? Vivis has better fried chicken and The service is pretty impersonal here.

For fast food, the quality is great and service is good. Just wish they had better seating. There's usually 3 people taking up all 8 seats. They should arrange it better.

Ordered the original chicken sandwich through Doordash pickup, the one positive thing is the food was ready fast. As far as the taste I can honestly say this is one of the worst chicken sandwiches I have ever eaten. The meat was very tough and stringey, and the batter had a weird taste like peanut butter, ugghh...Wouldn't have eaten it if I wasn't hungry...you are much better off walking 2 blocks North on Jackson Avenue and going to Bob White Counter at the Jacx food hall for much better chicken sandwich.

The wings tasted delicious and juicy. I would recommend trying all the flavors. The staff was super friendly. They also sell reusable tote bags in case you want to buy one.

Food is a solid 3 star. Removing a star, as the newly opened restaurant already has health/food violations according to Haze Analytics. Had the spicy chicken sandwich. The chicken was very mild and not spicy at all. The chicken itself was pretty nice, but the very dry bread and lack of sauce just killed it. The snacks are generic, which is underscored by their signature sauce just being sriracha and mayo. Also the 3 recent reviews, all giving this place 5 stars, and no other reviews is sus

Got the tri-tasty box of musubis and it was very below average. The spam musubis were tiny - a sliver of spam along with a small spoonful of rice. Definitely not worth $4.50 each. The fried chicken musubi was larger and tasted much better, although I think it would have been better alone, rather than as a musubi. The third type was not memorable at all. For all three, the seaweed wraps tasted stale and made it very difficult to eat. Overall, a disappointing experience. Would rate it as 2 stars based off this once visit but leaving one star since I haven't tried the rest of the menu yet.

On the menu they advertise fried chicken so I ordered the sandwich and the meat looks under cooked I showed the worker and he said oh it's because it's duck but on the menu it advertised chicken the response was oh well it's duck chicken what is duck chicken?

This place is pretty good! The chicken sandwich ($10) is really juicy, and spicy version wasnt too spicy. I got the combo A (like $15) which comes with regular fries (looked like mcdonalds and tasted a little better) and a canned soda- next time id just get the sandwich by itself tho! Bathroom is nice, and there are around 3-4 tables. Would come again!

I don't like to give negative reviews, especially to a new restaurant, so I've given this place some time and now I've tasted nearly everything on the menu. Had high hopes for this place. Don't want to be a broken record but I agree with the issues brought up. The only thing that's good is their wings. If I just consider this a wings place, it's a 4 stars, but taking everything into account it's more of a 3 stars. Worst issue is that some of the stuff is overpriced for what you get.

Decent size rock coocoo chicken sandwich but didn't have sauce or much flavor. Truffle fries are just gris and mayo dusted w a little truffle powder. Disappointed

We have been here twice, both with big mishaps and extreme long wait times. Spam musubi is an absolute joke and tasteless, shouldn't the rice be properly cooked at least? If you like popcorn chicken it's worth a try but go in with a mindset of waiting at least 15 minutes just for 1 sandwich, if you order more than 1 item then good luck. The food isn't even hot, let alone warm. You have to reheat it when you take it home. The kitchen seems unorganized, maybe they just opened too early. They also need to pick up the phone when customers call to check on an order, your inbox shouldn't be full..We will try again in couple months after they figure the kinks out.

Chicken sadwich was really bad.. kinda pink too so not sure if it was cooked well? Chicken's not crispy at all.

I live in the neighborhood and always want to try and support new local businesses, but this place really needs to step up. Ordered popcorn chickens, it's not even close to popcorn chickens. Not enough crunch, flavor is meh (if not seasoned well then give us some sauce?), the portion is really small for the price. Tbh ViVis foodtruck's popcorn chickens is way better.

Food below average, rice way overcooked and small portion of chicken in the Katsu plate, "salad" I included a couple arugula leaves.. waste of $18.50

Pro: great flavors, great crunch Con: small portion I very much like the flavor of the crunch, but it was a bit more than I would've liked for that size. Overall it'll be worth ordering again.

This place is usually pretty good. I get a chicken sandwich combo with fries and a drink. I'll take out two stars though since today I found a small piece of metal inside my chicken. So, wondering if their quality control missed it.

My go to spot. Love the cheese water fall with hot pot lover. Nostalgia taste with the burger.

Came here Friday night for what I thought would be a quick pick up. Took over 25min to get our meal. Sandwich was okay, nothing special. Fries were cold. We also ordered 2 sodas that they just didn't pack for us (and we didn't realize till we got home). For two sandwiches, 1 fry, and 2 soda cans - it was almost 40$ - pretty pricey Also while we were waiting in line, a customer accidentally knocked over a beer bottle that they have lined up on the floor along the wall. The bottle opened and spilled. This was clearly a mistake (and horrible design concept by the restaurant). The employee then essentially guilt tripped the customer into "paying for it since she opened it". Absolutely appalling. The poor customer walked out with a warm half spilled beer... Not really worth it in my opinion. Maybe they just have to work out how to function properly, but the food left something to be desired

best chicken in the worldjuicy&fresh better than any chicken in lic have to eat yuzu coocoo wings

Got a chicken sandwich combo from here when visiting my friend in LIC. It was very filling. They have lots of different flavors so I'm excited to try more.

One of the best fried chicken place in LIC. In particular great chicken wings and fillets. Highly recommended!

I don't know what people are talking about. I've been here three times and every time solid. Chicken sandwiches are so damn juicy. Fried chicken is delicious, flavorful garlicky and juicy. Would not go anywhere else in this area. This place is not 3 stars it's way better than that.

Came here during my lunch break and ordered Combo A with the chicken spicy sandwich. The sandwich is juicy with a good amount of heat. The fries looks and taste exactly like McDonald fries. The can of coke was room temperature. I had to get ice and a cup from work to make it drinkable. Overall the meal was okay but the cost was on the pricier side ($15.xx)

Service is great really nice and food is always good , the rock coocoo sandwich is really good one of my fav places to stop and get a quick bite !!

Really excited for a new restaurant to open up in LIC. Sadly the chicken wrap I got was more wrap than chicken, and the fried chicken and shoe string fries were cold and felt like they were cooked and left out for too long (despite the wait for takeaway being ~15min). Really hoped the place would be great to come back more often. But still holding out hope they do get better!
