Mouthwatering! Whenever I'm craving fried chicken, I Got My Sound is my #1 go-to. I've been coming here since I moved to the area a couple years ago and the quality is fresh and consistent. I've dined in, done takeout, and introduced to friends - Gim Ballad and Honey Luv Rap wings are reliable crowd-pleasers. The seaweed-crusted Gim Ballad is a unique take with great crisp texture, and Honey Luv Rap is the perfect balance of sweet and savory. These are my household's personal favorites as well, but we've had all the available flavors and would not say no to any of them. For 2 of us, we usually get the Billboard Top 3 (3 flavors, 2 of each for 6 total wings) and a fry or My Salad.
My Salad is a top-notch flavor and texture bomb. There are apparently 2 styles of dressing (not noted in the menu), but we've only had the default "Caesar" option. The quinoa and fried Asian noodle offer crunch, and the dressing is bright and umami.
Poppin' Chicken is their version of popcorn chicken, which comes in 4 flavors: Original, TNT, Lemon Curry, and Spicy Ramyeon. If you're expecting Taiwanese-style popcorn chicken, this is not that. My personal favorite is lemon curry, unexpectedly, since I also think it leans more lemon than curry - but personally, the TNT is tangy and not spicy, and Spicy Ramyeon has good flavor but also does not have any kick that I can tell (but I like spice and have a slightly higher tolerance). The pieces are also a bit too big to eat in one bite, which doesn't make it "poppin'" in my opinion...
Both the regular and spicy Carbonara Topoki are good fusion dishes that satisfy cravings for something like pasta, that is rich and creamy yet flavorful without being overpowering as you would expect in an Italian dish. It's all about balance. Portions are definitely for sharing between 2-4 people.
As for the service, the food appears to be made fresh to order, so expect a wait of 20-25 minutes for dishes to come out. I think it's well worth it, and the servers themselves are friendly and accommodating.
Ambiance: Casual; music-themed but it's not distracting. The menus are crafted with old vinyl record covers, which is great for vibes, but there are times when it seems there are not enough to go around. Based on the video clips playing in the dining area on repeat, I believe the owner is a real dance-enthusiast that's passionate about music and food.
Overall, 10/10 would recommend. My suggestion for the restaurant would be to perhaps add customizable spice levels to the Poppin' Chicken, and make the pieces smaller to be more bite-size. Other than that, keep doing your thing!
