Lately when it comes to fried chicken, chain places like popeyes, KFC, etc. are just not doing it for me anymore. Luckily, there's a new KFC when it comes to fried chicken, Korean Fried Chicken!! Korean fried chicken has become kind of my go to for my fried chicken needs. Koryo has a great fried chicken that you must try if you're a fan yourself!
This place has a lot more seating then you would think looking from the outside. Being a bar, they can easily merge tables for larger groups as well. We were a party of 8 and there was no trouble at all merging tables for us. There were 2 other groups of at least 8 or more to at the same time and there were plenty of seats for everyone during the lunch rush.
Koryo's menu features items you would normally find at a Korean restaurant with a few extra items like KFC, samgetang and surprisingly, a millefeuille tonkatsu! There should be something for everyone here. Myu family ordered a bibimbop, an order of mild KFC, and the millefeuille.
I was very impressed with the KFC here. It's crispy on the outside, very tender and juicy on the inside. The mild chicken still has a hint of spice so my little ones didn't take to it to well, but any adult fried chicken lover will love it. The millefeuille was pretty good as well. The pork was a little dryer than I would of preferred, but the spinach and cheese stuffing more than make up for it. Someone else in our party ordered a whole fired cornish hen and that was amazing as well!
Service here is super friendly. We had two servers who were very patient and helpful throughout our meal. Their English wasn't the strongest, but they took the time to make sure they understood everything.
My only gripe is the parking situation. You're either stuck with paid street parking which can get pricey or a side street that's not particularly close to the restaurant. In cold weather with two children, not the most ideal.
All in all, I am really a fan of Koryo. That KFC was darn good. The quality of the food here was very impressive. I totally recommend this place to any fried chicken fan!
