Best Los Angeles Restaurants for Takeout and Delivery, According to Eater Editors | Eater LA

"While Koreatown has plenty of options for great fried chicken, including at Pelicana and BHC, Rice Chicken is one of the few that has gluten-free options. Stationed in a strip mall of eighth, this restaurant uses a rice batter to coat its chicken, resulting in an exterior that’s crispy and light after frying. There are only a handful of seats inside, and parking in the lot can be tricky at times, but luckily, the chicken here holds up well to travel. If avoiding gluten, make sure to ask which sauces are gluten-free. Order pick-up on Rice Chicken’s website, or delivery through Uber Eats or DoorDash." - Rebecca Roland

Rice Chicken - Review - Koreatown - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"There’s seemingly a Korean fried chicken spot on almost every block in Koreatown, but Rice Chicken is the only one that offers a fully gluten-free version. The rice flour batter used at Rice is light and crisp, even if doesn’t quite deliver the shatter-on-impact exterior you’d expect from double-fried chicken. Though mainly a takeout operation, the dining room is surprisingly large, and looks more like a brightly lit daycare than a traditional chimaek pub, with plastic chairs and walls covered in doodles. Though it’s not our first choice of KFC in K-town, Rice is a great option if you’re gluten-free or want to chase your chicken with a deep-fried tornado potato on a stick." - Cathy Park

Really tasty korean fried chicken with a ton of variety and flavors! The rice cakes (tteoks) were fantastic as well, well cooked crispy on the outside, soft on the inside. Gluten free friendly! Unfortunately the menu doesn't make it clear what menu items are gluten-free or not, but the owner was very accommodating and helped guide us through the options. And as someone who isn't gluten sensitive, I can't tell the rice flour breading is meaningfully different from wheat flour.

Chicken was nice and crunchy and moist. I heard about this newly opened kfc spot in Ktown and decided to eat in and give them a shot. The owners are really nice and has a mom and pop feel about it. I had the soy jade 10 piece wings and it was quite delectable. Heavier on the salty soy than garlic flavor. I would definitely come back and try their other flavors. ADA PARKING BEWARE: I am a disabled driver with a placard and I had an awful experience with the valet man coming into the restaurant while I was eating to tell me I had to pay the parking fee even tho LA county law is that handicapped patrons can park in the spots for free. He was quite angry and loud about it and it caused quite a scene because he profiled me for being young. I am a young disabled person who constantly deals with this layer of discrimination but that was quite over the top. It was an embarrassing restaurant to get yelled at like you’re doing something wrong when in fact that is my placard and I decided to leave my cane in the car. DO BETTER 🤦🏻‍♀️

Best fried chicken my partner and I ever had! Everything was great, and the owners are super friendly! If we weren't from out of town it would definitely be a regular spot for us.

Rice chicken is easily one of my favorite Korean fried chicken spots. The food quality is top notch, made fresh, and the crispiness is unmatched. You know it’s good when even the plain wings are extremely delicious. The service is also top notch! The owners are very kind and attentive. Would recommend this place to anyone

Being allergic of Gluten isn’t so bad anymore now that I’ve found this place. As a former Fried Chicken connoisseur, the rice flour chicken is delicious and even crispier than regular fried chicken. It’s great Fried Chicken in general, you’d never know. Super flavorful. I like the regular plain flavor or honey garlic. It’s all amazing!

This place has amazing food. The owner is super nice and accommodating. You can tell how much creativity and care he puts into his dishes. I loved my experience here and I’ll definitely be back.

Everything was made fresh to order: piping hot! The best chicken sandwich we have ever had, no joke!! (no photo picture because we were halfway done by the time I thought to take pictures for a review). The fries were crispy and delicious. Tornado potato is amazing. We got the wings were also great: crispy, saucy, juicy inside. The owners were so kind and friendly and gave us gloves so we could eat the chicken. If I could make this place blow up on tik tok I would!

Have to live in K-Town a few years before finding the good stuff I guess. This is so good. Being gf I’ve looked and looked for a legitimate fried chicken. Here it is.

The best Korean Fried Chicken in Los Angeles, and the most wonderful owner. My favorite flavors are the Honey Garlic and Soy Garlic. They use rice flour so the wings aren't as heavy traditional chicken wings. I've never eaten inside but the decor is quaint and chill. I always get it to go as it's a quick walk from my house. Oh and the spicy wings are the way to go, not terribly spicy but adds a ton of flavor.

4.8/5.0 The reviews do not lie. This place has amazing fried chicken. Taste: Very crispy, but not overly breaded. Lightly salted, just enough to be flavorful but not too salty. Not too heavy or greasy. And for essentially popcorn chicken, there was none of those accidental batter-only pieces. I know some people like that, but love when every piece has nice juicy chicken. Experience: Parking is not great. They do have valet but the lot was full. The vibes inside could be cozy if there were a bunch of people with friends. But it was empty. I think this would still be a decent place to get cheap beer and fried chicken if you don't want to be in too hip of a spot. I just did take out and that was perfect for me. Mood Before/After: A bit hangry before, and sated after. So much better. Fullness: The small batch of fried chicken could be split between two people, but I ate it all since I was super hungry. I think it's a good value though. What else did I eat/do today affecting my experience: Been cleaning out my art studio space and moving. So I was not having an exciting day

I generally enjoyed both times I've come to this restaurant. It's located in a strip mall with self and valet parking -- sometimes the tiny lot gets really packed. It really feels like more of a lowkey place and whenever I go there I'm pretty much the only one there unless I'm with a buddy or two. I enjoy that, but you may find it awkward -- really depends on your vibes and preferences. One thing I'll say before talking about the food is that I don't really like the quality of the plates and water holders since they're both made of plastic. It's really a big deal but it's something I do notice. The menu itself gives you many choices and if you like Korean style friend chicken, you probably want to try this place at least once. I've been here twice and the food has always satisfied me but the second time I came here, two people in my group did get upset stomachs after eating here. That could be a one-off but just something to keep in mind. The staff are alright and don't get in your way at all. If you know Korean it may be easier to express customizations if you need any.

I enjoyed the chicken here! We got 2 small boneless orders, one yang nyum and one soy garlic and both were good! I wish the spicy was more spicy though. The chicken was crunchy and the service was good. Bathroom was out of order and parking is either valet or street, but overall good experience!

Stumbled upon a new KFC spot in ktown that's dangerously close to home! Tried Korean oven roasted chicken for the first time and it's seriously a game changer! Super crispy, tasty, and a healthier option. Definitely try the soy garlic and honey garlic flavors when you visit and don't miss out on their food/drink combo deals!

Decided to stop by here after trying stagger coffee next door in ktown. The restaurant was pretty empty on a Friday evening which maybe should've been my first red flag. Prices are very affordable. They have tons of different combos and drink specials. I ordered a 10 piece bone in wing in their cheesy tiger to try for ~$20. Unfortunately, the wings left much to be desired. They were on the smaller end, were crispy but were under seasoned and I couldn't taste the cheese flavor at all :(. When I tried to communicate this to the owner and asked for more seasoning, she said no. Personally, I've had better experiences at other kfc spots in la but this is a decent spot for a cheap meals since they have dishes for under $9. There are ample tables with extra seating in the back. Parking is limited as they share the lot with several other businesses in the same plaza.

The food here was great! The rice chicken really is different in the way the crust is not too hard. Although the soy chicken was a bit heavy, but the chicken was so tender! The potato swirls were freshly made! The uncle here was pretty friendly! There is more seating in the back. The overall vibe takes you to Korea.

Mr. Paul and his rice chicken is the best! Stumbled upon this gem by luck because my mom and I were craving fried chicken and wanted to go where there was parking available lol. Walked into the cute green room and was greeted right away. We sat down and looked over the menu and Mr. Paul came to help us choose and place our order. We went with the classic wings with two different sauces plus sides of rice, radish, and coleslaw slaw. We were sure we'd have enough to bring back home, but after one bite into the crispiest but lightly battered chicken we've ever had, there was no stopping us until all the chicken bones laid before us haha! The sauces itself with the rice were even so yummy we ordered an another extra side of rice! The chicken was wonderfully marinated and the flavors were just so tasty! We'll definitely be back!!!

Rice Chicken es un lugar imperdible para los amantes del Korean fried chicken y los sabores auténticos de la cocina coreana, con el plus de ser gluten-free gracias a su uso de harina de arroz. Del menú, probé las oven-roasted alitas Korean BBQ, que estaban perfectamente sazonadas y jugosas. La spicy seafood soup ofrecía un balance ideal entre picante y sabor a mar, mientras que el sweet & spicy sotteok (brochetas de pastel de arroz y salchicha) era una explosión de sabores. Por último, la tornado potato no solo era deliciosa, sino también un placer visual. El servicio fue excelente, con un personal atento y amable que hizo la experiencia aún mejor. Además, cuentan con valet parking por solo $3, lo cual es muy conveniente en esta concurrida área. Rice Chicken es una joya en Korea Town para disfrutar de comida deliciosa, servicio de calidad y precios accesibles. ¡Definitivamente regresaré!

I'm usually boring and get kyochon for Korean fried chicken but Rice Chicken is SO MUCH BETTER. I got crowing rooster and cheesy tiger and I'm obsessed now. I like how you can pick spicy or mild for the chicken itself and then the sauce or dry rub goes on top. I usually can't do spicy food but we got spicy for both crowing rooster and cheesy tiger and they were SOOO good together. The spicy chicken with the cheese dry rub compliments each other so well and doesn't get too heavy since there's a little bit of a kick. The owner helped us out and he makes everything from scratch, which makes sense because it tastes so healthy and FRESH. We went during lunch time but they serve alcohol so next time, definitely going to get some beer with the chicken. OH and they have OVEN BAKED CHICKEN, which I really want to try next. The place is super clean and he even turned on the heater for us since it was kinda cold outside. Must try this place if you're looking for Korean chicken!!

I've been here twice now, and both visits have been perfection! I haven't ordered takeout yet, but the dine in experience is very nice for a casual spot. They bring a carafe of cold water, cabbage salad, and radish while you wait. I have gotten the Sweet Goblin boneless, and the spicy garlic boneless. Really tasty and a good serving. The fries are very well done and some of the best I've had lately. All their sauces are great. Definitely try rice chicken, it's the best!

Dude. I have fallen in love. I found this place on Yelp during a mini trip to LA from San Jose. I went as soon as they opened the doors at 11 to try their Gluten Free Korean Rice Flour Chicken. It. Did. NOT. Disappoint. The chicken was truly amazing. It was thee best chicken I have ever tasted. I could swear it was not gluten free. The owner was incredibly nice. I wish that he would open a store in the Bay Area. I would be there twice a week minimum! Parking is a lil sparse but DEFINITELY worth looking for a spot to park so you can try the chicken. The sauces were not gluten free. I wish they were. I got the regular mild flavor chicken. Damn I wish I had some now. This would be a driving force for me to go back to LA sooner. Again. Chicken was AMAZING. It held up its crispness for hours as we drove back home. The chicken. Well it was too good and we ate it along the way. I got the 18 or 20 piece. I made it home with 6 left lol. Ok maybe 5. Gluten free or not. You MUST have their chicken. (Chefs kiss!)

Rice Chicken is consistent with its high quality meat, always crispy exterior on the chicken and fresh ingredients. The owners are super friendly. There's a huge space in the back of the restaurant so it's a great place to have late night chimaek (chicken and beer). You can let the valet ppl know you're picking up food and they're cool with it. Or you can usually find street parking if you don't want to pay for valet. Maybe an unpopular opinion but I think I might like their oven roasted chicken more than the fried chicken. But either way you can't go wrong with your choice.

I have been wanting to go here since my friends showed me a photo of the tornado potato they ordered (fried potatoes on a stick). I feel like this food is common at state fair / carnival type places but I've never had it before, but I loved this tornado potato. You can get it with honey butter seasoning, cheese seasoning, or half and half. I love an opportunity to try all the flavors so we did half and half and we loved it. The cheese seasoning is my favorite but I would still get half and half next time because both are so good. I could not get enough of this lol I am basically writing a love letter to this fried potato / tornado potato menu item. The place is also cute inside and the staff is so nice and friendly. She was chatting with regulars and seemed to know folks and just what a great addition to the neighborhood. I haven't tried it, but my friends have also said their Korean fried chicken is good.

Perhaps our new go to Korean fried chicken spot This chicken is coated w rice flour and the flavors are delishhh. Plus their lunch menu options are a steal! (~$11) We will be back Boneless fried chicken (S $19, L $32) & wings (10pc $19, 20pc $34)- the large is doubled what's pictured and it was great for two people. Our fave flavors are soy garlic and their kbbq, highly recommend both Kimchi fried rice ($13) - my friends got this and it tastes like a good homemade bowl They have so many sides for such affordable prices (fries, cheese sticks, tteokbokki, tonkatsu, + more) I want to try them when I'm back!

This place is absolutely amazing!! I first got the regular plain chicken sandwich. The chicken was so juicy, crispy, and fresh. Although I wish the cheese was a little more melted, it was absolutely amazing. The coleslaw and pickles complemented it perfectly. The fries were also crispy and steaming hot. The ruby jade wings are packed with so much flavor. The food here comes out fresh everytime. The crunch in every bite goes well with the radish. It's amazing that there is a delicious place that does gluten free wings. A very rare find in LA and a must try! The owner is also extremely nice and puts a smile on everyone's face. Service is amazing and this place deserves more customers!

I know there's a ton of chicken places all throughout Ktown but I truly believe this place had the best crunch out of them all. Don't let the construction around the plaza deter you from going. When you walk inside and turn a corner, it's a lot larger and have multiple tables/seats with a nice ambiance/decor. Got the half/half whole chicken, half original and half soy garlic. It had a baseline spice so you can choose mild or spicy. The rice flour they coat the chicken with allows the skin to be so crunchy and crispy while the chicken inside is so moist and juicy. The soy garlic, although tossed in sauce, remains crispy and is perfectly salty/sweet. The mu (white radish cubes) are free on the side, but you need to pay $1.50 for more. I think you can do without the fries though. Not the best, but not the worst. They have an array of alcoholic drinks if you're looking for a specific type. Definitely coming back!

Good quality chicken and good service ! The young lady who served us was very accommodating they give a starter cabbage salad and radish with the wings and I love that they give you gloves before your wings come cause the wings are sauccyyy ! Heads up They charge if you wanna split flavors. They have a bomb chicken sandwich I got the sweet goblin which was my favorite flavor of them all and the slaw on it was actually very complimentary to the sandwich and wasn't super heavy on the mayo. Next time i go I will try the basic fried chicken and report back ! The ambience was very casual and they have a back room that has a wall that the costumers can draw on / sign

Incredibly friendly service. Met the owner and he was very kind. We got the Crowing Chicken, unflavored fried chicken, and oven roasted rice chicken (spicy). It was all good, and the oven roasted was completely worth the wait (they warned us when we ordered it that it would take 30+ minutes compared to the 15 or so minutes for the rest). Will DEFINITELY be back, and get more of them all, especially the oven roasted!

I dined in on a Monday evening and was pleasantly surprised! I always pass by this place and have always wanted to try it, and I'm glad I did! We ordered the Honey Garlic fried chicken wings and the original fried chicken (whole)! The honey garlic fried wings were so delicious! Sweet with lots of sauce and the inside chicken was juicy. I enjoyed it a lot. The original fried chicken was great, and really got all the parts of the chicken. I like the batter, the spices, and the crunch is amazing! The service seemed like it was just one lady working up front most of the time, but we ordered and got our food in good time. There's lots of tables to choose from inside. It's not super fancy but I enjoyed the atmosphere. There was kpop music playing. Unfortunately though it was annoying because some of the napkin holders weren't filled but they refilled it while we were there. Monday nights, I guess. Overall I would come back. $40 for a good amount of wings. Could do better but honestly, it was good so I didn't mind. Could definitely share between 3 people, but there was only two of us and we both took some leftovers. I will definitely be coming back!

This place is AMAZING. I'm not local but was in LA for a small community event. I decided to grab dinner afterward and went here since I had come with my aunt who is celiac. The chicken was delicious!! I got the crispy chicken wrap with fries and I felt the value was really good for the amount of food I got. I was satisfied after. The fries left a little bit to be desired, but honestly that's not why we came, so it's hardly worth the mention. My wrap was delicious, the chicken is crispy and flavorful, and it paired really well with the korean hot sauce. The interior is pretty inviting and the staff were very friendly. I will definitely be keeping this place in mind the next time I'm in LA!

The food was delicious. Partner was so happy to be able to have a favorite food since going gluten free. We had the original fried chicken wings with sweet chili and honey mustard sauces on the side. All gluten free. Amazing cronch which is better than regular old crunch. Staff was so friendly too. Plenty of space inside.

Truly a hidden gem in K-town. I chanced upon Rice Chicken on a rainy Monday only due to my first choice chicken joint being closed, but the takeout here ended being one of the highlights to my trip. The cheesy tiger was phenomenal: their powder cheese was a perfect mix of savory and tangy notes that accentuated the classic fried chicken umami, and I never got tired of the taste bite after bite. Rice Chicken prides itself in the use of rice flour for frying, and each bite felt lighter (yet still addictively crispy) as a result. Personally, I enjoyed their rendition of this cheese powder fried chicken more than the popular bburinkle chicken from BHC. Despite the construction at their entrance, Rice Chicken has a cozy but chic interior with seating within, and there was plenty of open tables during my weekday evening visit. Their pink and green box design was also stylish and perfect for surprising a friend gathering. Will definitely be back again.

Rice Chicken is hands down the best Korean Fried Chicken in Koreatown and Los Angeles. The absolute perfect amount of spice. The Bulgogi Fries are crispy and incredibly flavorful. And the owner, Paul, is hilarious! You need to come here!

As a starving actor coming off a historical strike and counting pennies while the industry wakes up, I rarely go to restaurants but my fridge was empty and it was too late to go grocery shopping so I treated myself to a chicken wrap from Rice Chicken. I've lived on the block since 2019, so I've seen the dilapidated strip mall on eighth get a facelift and I've watched new establishments like Rice Chicken rise from under the scaffolding. And though I wish I could eat my way through the menu, money is tight and SNAP doesn't cover restaurant food so my ability to treat myself is limited. So when I saw Rice Chicken had a chicken wrap for $9.99, I gave it a try and OMG, I've never had such a delicious wrap. It's spicy, it's juicy, it's crunchy, it's savory, it's teeny bit sweet. It's like a Cubano but with spicy fried chicken, pickled salad and a very special sauce that I want to have on everything. But don't take my word for it, do your own research and visit Rice Chicken LA and say "Goodbye Regular Flour, Hello Rice Flour!"

My new gluten free korean fried chicken spot! This crunchy fried chicken tastes almost the same as the regular flour fried chicken, and might be actually better. Service is always great and timing is pretty accurate from their estimates. They have plenty of seating so will dine in next time. Parking lot is valet at certain hours on the weekends. I got the Crowing Rooster and the Soy Garlic Chicken full chicken. This is a lot of chicken, I think approx 12 pieces each and we had this for about 3 meals. I love both sauces and would recommend them both. Also you can make them spicy! They also have rice on the side if you want as well!

Was craving some fried chicken takeout and this newly opened store was conveniently near our place. We were attracted to the rice flour the store boasted to use, and wanted to compare it to other popular fried chicken chains. We ordered the 20 pcs Ruby Jade (soy garlic) along with the Deokbokki. The chicken was packaged nicely for takeout, with holes for ventilation and radish provided. Upon first bite, first notice was the crunch of the chicken skin, and the unique flavor the rice flour added to the wings. Combined with the tenderness and juiciness of the flesh, we could tell immediately that the wings were cooked with detail and care. The soy garlic flavor was not overwhelming, and at times felt like could use a little more of the garlic flavor for the hardcore garlic lovers. The Deokbokki was a nice and welcome addition to the meal. Not much to say here, except it was a solid dish that provided a little spice to the meal. We did not add the ramen noodles, but would definitely consider it in a future visit. Overall, the chicken was the best I've had in a while, and felt a lot less heavy and greasy than other chicken places do. I wish they allowed 50/50 on flavors, especially with higher wing counts, as I would have definitely wanted to try the Crowing Rooster (Yang Nyum) flavor. For a newer, less reviewed chicken spot on the block, this place is an undiscovered star.

Boneless fried Chicken. L ($32)시켰는데 너무 건조하고 딱딱해서 이빨 아플정도.사이즈가 너무 잘잘해서 어떤건 진짜 딱딱함 . Soy garlic 시켰는데 이멋도 저맛도 아닌 맛. 소스는 $1 추가 . 술 파는곳인데 화장실 없다고 함 . 불법임 . 맥주 마시고 화장실가고 싶으면 큰일남 . 재방문 의사 없음 . 맛이 별로면 Customer service 라도 좋아야하는데 일하는 알바 여성분 화나 있음 .그래도 서비스업인데 좀 웃으세요 .

Fantastically crispy chicken and friendly service. Chicken was fried fresh to order and very juicy. Even the side of radish tasted so fresh and crunchy! There was a lot of seating in the store, which seemed very clean and well-maintained. One of my favorite fried chicken spots in ktown now!

Goodness gracious. The fries were crispy and had a good amount of flesh in it! The chicken was so darn crispy. The size of each piece was a little small but that's been happening a lot these days I think. So overall pretty good!! Interior was clean and nice. I think bc it's newer the wait wasn't bad but I really think the food is gonna make this place stand out. Service was friendly and helpful! This is gonna be my new place

i tried this spot due to a tiktok recommendation (shoutout itshelemelon!) and yummmmm ive found a new fave! i did an online order pickup for their spicy oven roasted wings and man, im obsessed. the spice is burny and the crunch on the wings is perfect. the flavor is so good also - definitely did not expect it to taste so simple but its actually so good! i only got to try this one flavor this time but im more than excited to come back - especially knowing that this version of chicken wings is ~healthier~ small parking lot out front! there is a valet that will let you park on your own you let them know youre just picking up

First time trying this spot and it did not disappoint! Owner is extremely kind and friendly. The location is a little tough to spot right now because of the construction work happening on the building, but don't give up! Just follow the signs to the door you'll find it. The chicken is incredibly delicious! Super juicy and the sauces are on point. My personal favorite is the goblin sauce! Slightly spicy, sweet and garlicky. Perfect combo. They have great lunch specials as well! Got a chicken sandwich with fries and a drink for $12! Update as of 02/08 - lunch special sando comes as original (moon rabbit) only! NO SAUCE

So happy I got recommended this little chicken shop. Their gluten free fried chicken is great for my friends with allergies - and bonus points because it is actually bussin. From their spicy strips to wings to Korean street food - there are options here sure to make anyone happy. I wanna come back and try all of the wing sauces, but I started off with just the soy garlic and was quite the fan. The packaging and general aesthetic is also on point - they seem to care about the full package.

I've found a new spot for gluten-free Korean fried chicken, and it's quite impressive! The crunchy fried chicken here rivals, and in some ways, surpasses the taste of the regular flour-fried chicken. During my visit, I ordered the Crowing Rooster and the Soy Garlic Chicken in full chicken portions. It's a substantial amount of chicken and it ended up covering about three meals for us. Both sauces, the Crowing Rooster and the Soy Garlic, were delicious, and I'd recommend trying them both. You can even request them to be made spicy if you like a bit of heat. What I appreciate most is the consistently great service and nice ambiance, and they're pretty accurate with their timing estimates.

The chicken was fantastic! We got the 10 piece with soy garlic, a side of honey garlic sauce and a side of Korean hot. The chicken stayed crunchy. The honey garlic was good. The Korean hot was not spicy at all- so do not fear if you can't handle heat. We placed the order to go, and it was ready quickly. Fast and friendly. The place looked very clean. The parking lot is not accessible to the public without paying. There are guys out there who charge for valet. We had to park on the street and order to go, but would have liked the opportunity to eat inside and have some Korean beer with the chicken.

I've been in California for 4 years and this is hands down the best chicken in LA, crispy chicken angry zombie and crowing rooster are simply amazing sauces . Please come support. The place is clean and the service is amazing as well.

Love love their food! I'm keep coming back here for their crispy chicken and cup bap! Their fried chicken is made with rice powder but it tastes not the same but better than regular fried chickens. Their portion is pretty generous and me and my friends couldn't finish the cup bap.

First time trying Korean fried chicken. I didn't know what to go with. Everything on their menu looks tasty. I asked the cashier and she explained what I can expect from their flavors. I went with the Honey Garlic fried chicken sando. It was delicious! Outside of their deliciously juicy fried chicken. The slaw, pickles and bun brought it together with their savory taste. Complimented the sweetness of the honey really well. Definitely would recommend you try that flavor sandwich. I wanted their spicy flavor which I will be back for!

Rice Chicken hits the mark in every area, providing the ideal experience for anyone looking for Korean fried chicken. Matching a cozy, clean store interior with warm, friendly service, Rice Chicken really excels in making the customer feel at home, and that's before getting to the food. We ordered the original chicken and the honey garlic chicken. To be honest, I wasn't really expecting the rice flour to make too big of a difference. It absolutely did. The chicken was super crispy, even more so then your traditional Korean fried chicken, while still being mouthwateringly juicy on the inside. The honey garlic sauce had the perfect balance between sweet and savory which was simply yum. Rice Chicken is a hidden gem for Korean fried chicken which deserves some real spotlight
