Gentle Chic

Ordered the Combo #1 that comes with: Chicken Sandwich w/Traditional BBQ sauce Korean Style Corn Dog Medium Drink with unlimited refills Total: $14.25 plus tax Being my first time there, I asked the wonderful staff what sauce to recommend for someone who doesn't really go crazy when it comes to spice, so he recommended the traditional bbq sauce which coats the chicken cutlet, but there is additional Buffalo sauce on the bread, which adds a building heat. It wasn't unbearable (the medium coke helped). The balance of the sweetness with the pickles and pickled radish was really good. The corn dog was nice and warm (not destructively hot that burns your mouth). I skipped breakfast that day, so when I ate here, I was more than stuffed. Will go back again whenever I'm buying some groceries.

We tried the half hotdog half mozzarella with sugar on it. Was excellent, the hotdogs part was okay but with ketchup or mustard is great. I would reccomend just getting the whole mozzarella

Pretty good fried chicken wich and corn dog Korean style, I can't get enough of those pickled radishes!

I love the mozzarella sausage dog. At first I thought I just got the mozzarella one but the sausage part is at the bottom. The batter is tasty. Never had this style of corn dog before. So glad I tried. The chicken and waffle is very good as well (not a fan of the cabbage) chicken juicy and flavorful. Waffle is crunchy and fluffy. Don't be in a hurry to get your food or else you will be frustrated. Plan accordingly.

two years ago I lost my spice tolerance where anything above Chipotle level heat just DESTROYS me but I love SPICY. I foolishly thought I could handle the 'mild' thinking it can't be that bad. I took the risk and when I received my sandwich I could tell this thing was going to wreck me. I could smell the HEAT-- could feel the tickle in my nose. The first bite set my mouth, throat, and stomach ablazed. I could feel the heat radiate within me. I pressed on even after the hellish first bite. After getting half the sandwich down I couldn't finish in one sitting. It was too much, easily one of the hottest things I've ate in the last 5 years. The intensity of the heat lasted for the next 24 hours. I'm for sure getting the regular next time 😅

wish i could give 5 but i’m tired of places that assume everybody likes spicy food. the sandwich would’ve been good but unfortunately i get allergic like reactions (lips swell, mouth burns and nose starts running). it’s torture and i couldn’t eat more than 2 bites 😩 I ordered the regular sandwich and didn’t ask for the spicy sauce. too late to go back but i still might give it another try

The menu is small but very efficient. Sometimes huge menu intimate us. Food was really good. Place clean and staff was not too polite not too rude but in between of both. My kid love it so we are coming back

It was overcooked too brown and the too hard. So terrible 👎

This place was actually really good for a long time where it maintained that "crisp" with pretty good sauces. However, my recent visit I ordered the 18 piece combo and, after a few wings in, we bit into one of the wings and immediately spat it back out. We saw a huge circle of light gray with white fluffy mold underneath the batter. I just threw the whole thing out and I didn't bother trying to refund it because we took it home to eat. This honestly spoke volumes in terms of their lack in quality checks and I probably won't be coming back. I really hate leaving bad reviews because it hurts businesses but I find it justified to especially when someone's health is on the line. Hopefully people are able to see this comment and reconsider because you can honestly get sick..

Ok. You're in Northridge (SFV) and you wear an AWESOME fried chicken experience? Gentle Chic. That's right. Gentle Chic located in the food court at Galleria Marketplace. South west corner of Devonshire and Reseda bl. Chicken is cooked to order and served piping hot! Condiments are provided including radish's or jalapeños w/ chicken orders The vibe is 90's Food Court The staff are friendly. The service is not fast but well worth the wait! Corn dogs are great as well! I'll be back! PS. For the crunchiest chicken go sauceless!

We come to this market frequently so that's how we came about this Korean hot dog place. There aren't many in the valley (might be a few more now) but it was nice to have this spot so close by for these delicious treats! Korean hot dogs blew up recently and slowly starting to come in the valley. Mochinut would be another one of the spots to grab these and there are different kinds! I usually go for the half mozzarella and half hot dog but sometime even just the full mozzarella is super good and filling. These hot dogs are huge and sometimes I can barely even finish a whole one. Great flavor and quality with that cheese pull you've always wanted. Love seeing the cheese pull because it's so satisfying! Will definitely have to come back and try their wings and chicken sandwich. IG: @ammysalamii

Went here for lunch today and it was a really nice. The whole galleria market is a pretty neat Korean cultural experience. I had the corn dog and the hot chic sandwich, at medium heat. Everything was delicious but that "medium" was spicy AF, probably needs a Caucasian warning. Service was friendly and relatively quick. Food came out hot and fresh.

Scrumptious Korean fried chicken! Located inside the Galleria food court. I highly recommend ordering ahead of time if you can. They fry the chicken to order and can take 10-15 minutes. I do my grocery shopping, tuck my cart somewhere, order at the food court, then checkout my groceries and put away in my car. By the time I get back, the chicken is almost great for pick up! The soy garlic is my favorite. They get the chicken glass shatteringly crispy. FYI, they do NOT serve the chicken sandwiches in WAFFLES anymore, just in brioche buns. Not bad, but the waffles were what distinguished them. Only getting the chicken from now on. Opt for the pink radish side dishes! They're the best to eat with the chicken.

WOW had no idea this was here. The most yummy fried chicken sandwich and at a reasonable price too. Definitely coming back frequently!! You must try if you haven't

Well I'll be damned. Came in to spend money on Asian market stuff and saw their Food court. Tucked in the front is Gentle Chic. Around it many many Asian type eateries. Lonely I had second thoughts about eating here. Was the food good? Why isn't there a lot of people eating here? Oh well I need a quick bite and I'm planning to eat with my kids so I don't want anything too heavy. Ordered the sandwich and corn dog combo. Hmmm. I wanted a quick meal but on the display there's a message saying that food is made to order so you may wait 15 minutes and it also says I won't regret the wait. So I waited patiently. Wow! This place rocks. A hidden gem. The sandwich is amazing. It has some sort of pickled onions with pickles and some other delicious things. AMAZING! The corn dog is covered with some sort of breading crumbles and was AMAZING. Serious this good is bomb. They also sell fried chicken but I didn't have that but I'm sure it's just as delicious. Come down and get some delicious food!

The corn dogs here are great, they have the best mozzarella dogs and the waffle chicken sandwich. Although there is not much room to customize your corn dog, you can't make a potato dog half cheese half sausage which sucks. You can ask for a side of honey mustard which tastes great. It wasn't busy when I went, so service was quick and wait time was around 10 minutes or less. They always had a staff member near the register so we didn't have to wait to get our order taken. It's located at the galleria food court so it's very busy and loud in the dining area. There is plenty of seating although during the busy hours there is no where to sit.

The corn dog with potato was not bad. I actually like it. Service was pretty fast and the place is clean.

It's located inside the galleria. I got a spicy gentle chic sandwich at lunch. It was pretty damn saucy and pretty spicy for someone who likes spicy foods. It was a great sandwich. Took about 5 to 10 minutes.

Hands down one of the best Korean fired chicken experiences in LA. Is it in a food court? Yes. Is it as good as the places with a stand-alone trendy location? Way better. Chicken sandwiches are amazing. Go for the Korean Spicy that has pickles and purple cabbage slaw. Perfectly cooked with the combo of crispy and juicy with a soft bun and the acid of the slaw and pickle matching perfectly with the spice of the chicken. Potato and classic corn dogs are awesome, potato dogs especially with the double fried diced fries on the outside. Their French fries are super good, and the potato wedges are the best I have ever had. I also get the side of slaw every time so I can mix it with rice for lunch during the week. Also, this place is one of the few that know how to package food to go. Anything that is fried they package vented so it is still crispy when you get it home, not soggy from the steam that continues to be released. Small detail - yes. But it is attention to details like that which tell you the owners and employees have standards they hold themselves to, which means pride in their work and awesome food.

I like doing stuff like reading books to my Nana and bringing her treats she probably has no business eating. My son called in an order for 4 meat and cheese corn dogs, one for each of us including my aunt. What can I say about Gentle Chic? Wow!!! My grandmas favorite descriptive word "different". These certainly are different, but in a very Yummy Yumm Yumm way. I'd never in life had a corn dog of this size or one rolled in sugar then dipped in honey mustard sauce. My son and his girlfriend are familiar with this here little hidden gem of yumminess, and brought me my first tasting a few weeks back. I knew I wanted to surprise my grandma with something savory today versus the usual sweet treats I bring her. We all enjoyed them and they surely hit the spot for a filling afternoon snack. They're a hit and so inexpensive ($16 for 4). One is plenty, two is like food coma for hours to come. I figured go one today if I'd be laying around in a bikini. All I can say is Disneyland could never, these are next level corn dogs and you should go try this place if you haven't yet.

Okay, so I gave this place another chance because I thought I just ordered the wrong thing. This time I just ordered the wings (recommended flavors were traditional and garlic soy) but it was so ..... not magical. Korean fried chicken is known to be in a class of its own, but I didn't get that wow factor when I bit into the wings. The classic crunch was there, but the flavor was not so much. I am genuinely puzzled why people like this place as much as they do. As a Korean... I'm genuinely puzzled.

Pretty good chicken sandwich place that also serves Korean corn dogs. I've come here a few times and I'm always impressed by how great the value is! The combo that comes with two big chicken sandwiches and lots of fries is cheaper than most hot chicken places for even one sandwich. It is a great deal and an interesting Korean twist on the classic hot chicken sandwich. They have two types of sandwiches but I prefer the one that is closer to the classic Nashville hot. This location is located within the Galleria food court.

We need more chicken 'n waffles around here!!! For first timers, please note that this shop is located in the galleria lobby (GPS sends you to the wrong side of the plaza). Anyways, back to the food. They found a way that really makes a fried chicken waffle sandwich. So far, I've tried the original and the mango habanero sandwiches. The original was delish. Chicken was a good size for the half-waffles and the pickles were spot on. The flavor of the mango habanero isn't for everyone, but I can see some people enjoying it. In either case, Gentle Chic has the waffle-to-chicken ratio just right. This in itself is a great selling point. Not sure if this is just me, but it seems like they are more generous with their sides since the whole outbreak. Got a sweet potato side recently and they really filled the box to the top. Kind of reminded me of Five Guys generously giving their fries. I know my photo shows like a half-full box, but that's because I was snacking on it vigorously. Surprised I didn't finish before taking the photo. In terms of price, I thought the waffle sandwiches were slightly high, but the wings are very well priced. If they continue giving generously with their sides, it's definitely worth it, but their previous portion size was very underwhelming. This place looks really promising.

First timer here! I ordered the mozzarella and sausage corn dog. It was very interesting as the sugar coat outside is something new to my taste buds. The savory flavor of the sausage combined with the sugar was a good contrast but the mozzarella was very subtle which makes me want to try the cheddar next time. It's a great snack and filling. The store is located inside the food court in the Galleria.

This location is at the galleria. Lots of parking. You can order KFC (Korean fried chicken), and chicken sandwiches and my favorite, the cheese dogs!! The Korean cheese dogs are fried in a rice flour batter and they roll it in sugar before it is served. You must try the sugar on the cheese dogs, it's very good. I would recommend calling in or ordering in the cheese dogs on Yelp.

I really enjoy the corn dogs here. I love the batter a lot. Not only does this place have corn dogs, but they have wings, and waffle chicken sandwiches. The chicken comes in different sauces and spices as well as different heat levels. Corn dogs: 1. Mozzarella - the cheese pull is delicious and perfect. 2. Potato - regular hot dog inside and contains no cheese 3. Cheddar & sausage, and mozzarella Always add sugar to these, it makes them taste so much better. The chicken wing flavors are the same for the chicken sandwich flavors, but I do find some flavors are better as a chicken sandwich than wings and vice versa. Chicken wing flavors: 1. Soy garlic - perfect flavor with a slight spice 2. Mango habanero - not too hot at all 3. Spicy gentle chic (hot) - it's hot! Chicken waffle sandwich: 1. Spicy gentile chic in medium spice - SO GOOD. The sauce isn't too wet where it makes the waffle sandwich. 2. Soy Garlic

I always get the soy garlic chicken! Great food inside the korean supermarket. I always order here whenever I crave some korean chicken

Corn dog itself was good and a good price! It's in the food court inside the Galleria. The customer service was a little strange. Not too friendly. However the corn dog was good! I got the mozzarella and the regular dog and 2 were less than $7! I love the take of this kind of corn dog. Yummmmmy!!! The cheese is so good fresh.

Our second time to eat in this place, and t"was all good. They mainly sell chicken wings, waffle and chicken and corn dogs the korean style. Their sauces are good especially the garlic soy that goes with their wings. Chicken is fresh and crispy when served. Their corn dogs are unique. We had the sausage and cheese and the potatoe corn dogs. They are not the best but really good. Pricewise is reasonable, could have been better if they are a dollar cheaper than what each menu are priced. Very crunchy and tasty. Place is located inside the galleria korean market food court in devonshire and reseda. Lots of parking outside so it's not a problem.

The crispy chicken sandwich is a big chicken and they really didn't skimp on that. The flavor was spicy but not killing your spicy. The waffle was delicious and sweet. It was a good place of flavor and size. They're located in Galleria in the food court.

We have been waiting for Gentle Chic to open for weeks. When they finally opened during lunch time....we were told they were not ready until 2pm. So we ordered our lunch from another vendor. While we were sitting and eating we saw a bunch of people ordering food from Gentle Chic. Obviously confused I went up and asked how was it possible that other people were buying food from them. They said these were a select group of people to test out the food. I just wondered why on their big opening day....1.) they're not even ready 2.) why they did not pass out a few samples to curious customers. Two days later we came back...again during lunch time. The guy at the register said that the kitchen won't be ready until 1pm. Well that's past our lunch time and we need to go back to work. Maybe three times the charm (sort of). I went up again and asked if they were ready. The girl gave me an uncertain answer....maybe they'll be ready in an hour and that we should come back. That's when I kinda lost my cool. I made a big deal about being here for the third time and each time being sent back. The lady next to her checked the kitchen in the back...she came back and said ok we are ready. Finally!!! So we did overdo it and got a lot of food. The spicy chicken wings was actually really good and super spicy. I was not crazy about the soy garlic chicken wings. The mango habanero chic sandwich was a bit sweet for me. However I will be trying more items on my next visit. I'm sure its not easy opening up a new restaurant. But I feel they should've handled it better. If you're not sure about when the food will be ready just be honest and maybe pass out a few samples so potential new customers can get a taste of what you're offering. Don't open to the public serving to others while telling other customers you're not ready....not cool.

Just stopped by and got a Mango Habanero chicken waffle sandwich and an original corn dog with light sugar. The good Portion Size A I was pleasantly surprised by the size of the waffle sandwich. It is a pretty good size. Quality A Quality was good. I had no complaints. The chicken was crunchy. My son really liked the corn dog. He said it was "yum." He is a picky eater. Value A Total came out to around $12. $9 for the sandwich and 2.50 for the corn dog. Other corn dogs cost about a $1 more. The bad Wait time was a bit much. I would recommend you order before shopping at the Galleria Market or call ahead. I was the only one there and it took a while to get my food. This is where I took a star off. Overall A- I do recommend this place as long as you call ahead.

Super cheesy and delicious. I usually don't like sausage but this was very good. Nice flavor. The outside was crunchy. I put ketchup and mustard on it and it was perfect. Perfect little snack. Will be coming back to try the chicken sandwiches

Located inside the Galleria Market Food Court lies this hidden gem. A friend told us about the corn dogs and we decided to order take out. However, we were surprised to find... Hot or Not? Spicy Gentle Chic: Hot! item in all sense of the word. I got heat level Hot ( my tolerance for heat is high if yours isn't i recc the Mild) this fine juicy chicken is coated in a crispy crunchy spicy breading topped with spicy drizzle and pickled cabbage. And gently placed between the sweet Waffle buns. (beware they will eventually get V soggy). It's a large portion you could def split and get a side. This is hands down better than any hot chicken spot I've tried in LA. There's Mild, Medium, Spicy for the Spicy GC but there's also a no spice ad Mango Habanero option!? would def return to try the habanero. Mozarella Sausage CD: So, I have never had a KCorndog before& the breading is a hit! crispy and everything you want in a corn dog breading. The filling was different: So the sausage was actually 1/2 a sausage just in the bottom half and the mozz just in the top half. I didn't expect that but it was tasty. you can add sugar but I didn't, I may try in the future visit. The wait was about 26 min Ordered via yelp, picked up and the boxes were marked.

Having Gentle Chic a few times now, I would have to give it this rating. Today we ordered the mozzarella corndog, the potato corndog, and the mild soy garlic wings. This visit I forgot to add sugar, but I usually get my corndogs with sugar. The batter for both corndogs had really good flavor. The mozzarella corndog was really delicious. Salty from the cheese and the sweetness of the batter. The potato corndog was also really good. The potato has a little subtle flavor when biting the corndog. Though the hotdog itself was thin, and not so juicy. Adding ketchup and other condiments made it a nice treat. The soy garlic wings were very delicious. Though, I found it to be a bit overcooked. This led to the chicken being a little dry. The skin was incredibly crispy. The soy garlic was incredible flavor. The sweetness and the garlic pungency works well together. The quality of the food was ok. Like stated, the hotdog seemed like s cheap brand. The order was presented nicely in cute boxes. The portion with the price is semi fair. Each corndog was around $4. Though, it was delicious and worth the $4. The soy garlic wings, although seems expensive, were really large wings. The wings were big. The service is nice. The staff is always friendly. It seems like a long time to make the corndogs. Though, I realized it is because it is always made fresh to order. They have a pager so you can walk around the galleria while you wait. They have a shared dining spot with other restaurants there. I find it to usually be a bit messy. The parking is well because they have a large parking lot. Gentle Chic has delicious Korean corndogs. Will come back.

Took a day off to hang out with my nieces. We decided to have lunch a couple of places, ordered to go and went to a park to enjoy the food we bought. Gentle chic is located in the Galleria Market within their food court. They have an interesting variety of chicken menu items. Items such has waffles, korean corn dog, chicken and waffle sandwiches and of course wings. We ordered a hefty amount of wings just to try the different flavors. I liked that with the orders they gave some sides of pickled white radish and some jalapenos. The sauces for the wings were good but im not so sure of the texture. Parking: huge private lot VERDICT: One and done

Went during covid. Tables were all taped off. We had the soy garlic wings (mild) and the original corn dog. The wings were so crispy but still moist and delicious! I wish there was a bit more garlic in the flavoring though. The corn dog was good and had a good crunch to it! Not that greasy either! The batter to sausage ratio was perfect and I was iffy on adding the sugar but had requested a light coating and I'm so glad I did it. I ended up really liking it! Had to request for the ketchup and mustard but it really completes it.

I was super excited that Korean corn dogs was just in the valley as myungrang hot dog is quite the drive and was pleasantly surprised the first time. From my past two experiences, it's been a bit more miss. They're crunchy and soft and chewy on the inside, but slightly too sweet for my taste. I do think the quality of sugar matters. Their straight up fried chicken wings is where it's at. Flavor was good and perfectly crispy. Their mango habanero was reminiscent of the many powdered Mexican candy I used to eat and their soy garlic packed a punch of deep flavor of garlic. Their wedges were sadly not great. It was slightly wet and soggy for me more than crispy. The verdict: for the valley, it's sweet to have something like this, but I'd probably stick to myungrang hot dog for future cravings.

Instagram worthy! Really delicious and filling. The young man that works here told us how good it was and he was right. He told me that people sauce their corn dogs with ranch, ketchup and mustard and he was right about the sauce combo! The food is good and I'm glad we got a chance to try it!

The best chicken sandwich I've had in Northridge, the flavors are insanely delicious.

Amazing fried chicken! At his is now my new local Bon Chon. Step aside Chick fillet and Popeye's... we have a new chic in town! So flavorful and crispy batter! To top it all, they also serve a variety of waffles, corn dog and chicken sandwich Korean style! Definitely a MUST!!!!! Located inside the Galleria on Reseda/Devonshire.

The food is delicious !!! All the staff are friendly. I got the whole mozzarella corn dogs, melted cheese, and good crunch. I Would recommend it 10/10

Was heading to my regular spot at the Galleria Food Court when I noticed this new place. I was intrigued by the spicy Korean Fried Chicken, and even more curious about the waffle sandwich. With a couple of orders ahead of mine on a relatively not-so-busy lunch hour, it took 15 minutes to get my order (if you're in a hurry, may be a consideration). Orders are called using pager system, served in recycled brown cardboard boxes and trays for fries. Food is piping hot! At $9 for the sandwich, $3 for fries, and a free drink for the Yelp review, portion is on par with food in the court, but I think Gentle Chic should have combo meal deals to make things easier to order. Fried chicken was really tasty, cooked well, and has decent spicy kick (for reference, I ordered medium and it's spicier than Chip Fil A's Spicy Chicken Sandwich). Waffle was neither crispy, nor soggy and complemented the chicken well. My opinion: Worth a try if you like fried chicken!

Spicy Gentle Chicken Sandwich! Chicken was perfect - not too greasy, very juicy! Not sure what was in the waffle but it's pretty good. We'll probably come back again.

Delicious freaking corn dogs!!! I also always get Mango Habanero chic chicken waffle sandwich! The manager is also very nice with professionalism. Always my go to !

Great mix of spices and flavor on the sandwich. The corn dog had a great crunch to it with its panko crust.

Excellent service from Deysi. Great food! Yumss Definitely try their corn dogs. Chedder + Sausage is my favorite.

One of the best corn dogs out there! I always go to this market but never tried it before just because corn dogs are pretty common and they almost taste like the same. Not too mention, this is located in a Korean Market and so the other food stalls are basically Korean foods. Well, one is Japanese Cutlets but they also serve some Korean dishes. Gentle Chic's version looks very simple BUT VERY TASTY! Btw, I got mine without any sugar or other drizzles. Just wanted to try it plain. Their batter is really good! The crunchiness is heavenly! I am actually on my way back there to try their Mozzarella and Sausage and maybe something else! Just try it!

Gentle Chi's is one of the first Korean Chicken/ Korean corn dog shops in the valley. I ate at Gentle Chis a few days ago (chicken and corn dog) and was able to compare the taste with other shops that opened. The positives first: the corn dog is really good. Crispy on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside with a decent "cheese pull". The only thing was ther was no sugar coating on the outside...and you need to coat the outside with sugar for this to be a true Korean dog. Now to the chicken. I ordered the soy flavored chicken and it was okay. Good crispy batter, but the soy garlic sauce was a bit overpowering for my taste. It tasted "healthy", by which I mean "herby"(if that's a word). The pickled radish had a similar "herby" flavor that I personally don't associate with Korean fried chicken. Worth a try, if you tried other Korean fried chickens first. This is my opinion anyway. I always tell my friends to get recommendations for mid-grade Korean food so that it can set a standard (point of reference) for the type of dish they are trying. That's why I suggest trying others first.

Was there yesterday and the chicken wings were so delicious, lots of sauce, meat was not dry! It was just perfect flavor. The traditional mild flavor is highly recommended for a delicious treat. Cashier Daisy was nice, as well as the cook that day. Will be back to try the other flavors.

Service was great, Korean corn dogs and Korean fried chicken is must. The gentle chick is absolutely huge and will fill you up

This is located in the Galleria food court section! The food looked bomb and smelled so good! I definitely will have to come back again

Korean Corn dog in the valley?! Yup! The best! I'm so glad that there's finally good korean chicken wings and corn dog around the area! It's now my go to place!

This pace has not only the best customer service but also has the most amazing chicken and Waffles I have ever tasted !!!! You guys made my day !! Thank you

Highly enjoyable fried chicken /Korean fusion Waffle burger. The waffle was the perfect complimentary size in the burger. The Coleslaw is a unique fusion mix. Good size portion. Found inside the Galleria.

Super impressed. First time trying this place and pleasantly surprise how good their corn dogs are. Love the potato and mozzarella corn dogs! Will return again for more.

One of the best spicy chicken and specially their signature sauces plain crispy chicken spicy gentle check soy garlic check traditional check or mango habanero that's their signature sauces. Happy eating!!
