We went to the new location in Waikiki. Seems to have a expanded menu with even more amazing goodies. I tried the tteokbokki for the first time. Loved it. Everything was perfect. Definitely coming back. Also they offer a kamaaina discount.

The flavours were just average and they didn’t give us the fries that we ordered. The “plate” just consisted of 3 portions of dry rice and 1 portion of dry chicken. We were also told that the boneless pieces were chicken breast, but they were most definitely not.Overall, this place was not worth the time to go out of our way from the Waikiki strip and definitely not worth the money.

It's all in the name. GooD chicken... space is thick and flavorful. Price is right. Chicken is jucy and perfectly sized. With a little crunch. Just wish they had a spot I kailua. It's definitely on my list when ever I go to town. It's a must have favorite.. Ono chikien.

Not just "good chicken", the best damn chicken on island! My mind was blown by the quality, and if I could eat this every day I would die happy. I highly recommend the BBQ chicken (yangyum), sweet, savory and a little spicy is the perfect balance.

Found this place on yelp and decided on it because it was open late and they offered online ordering. My job was to pick up the food and it was very easy. I followed my GPS and found a parking spot right out front. They have a sign and it was easy to find, but it is kinda located in a random area that I wouldn't have expected to find a fried chicken counter. It may be on the bottom floor of an apartment building? or a hostel/hotel? Idk, I was a little confused and would have been sketched out, however, there were nice chairs to sit in to wait for my food order and it was clean and brightly lit. When I got home, we dug in immediately. The chicken was good, but in the future, I think we will order just chicken. We ordered a combo or something that came with fries and the fries weren't that good. The chicken was good though, I'd get that again. We also got the deep fried seaweed rolls. They were ok, but, again, I would have just stuck with the chicken. Come for the convenience, especially because a lot of places close way earlier. Order ahead (online) and pick up your food. They guy working behind the counter was nice
Dan GangJeong is Boneless Chicken w/Sweet Gochujang Sauce, but they put way too much Sauce in it. Sauce gets sickly sweet and I don't really enjoy it tbhHoney Shoyu was kind of confusing since I was expecting sweetness but I just got regular fried chicken. Was still good but I wonder if they actually make it like thisBut the Garlic Chili Chicken is absolutely great. Slight sweetness and savory flavors. Almost Perfect crunchiness that keeps the fried batter together with the juicy chicken. Eat it together with fried garlic and green chili pepperThis is the 5/5 right here

Finally I found it! A place selling the Korean chicken I've been searching all over the island for! Itchy Butt has good Korean chicken too but no boneless option so will not go there again. This place on the other hand made me feel like I was back in Seoul. The last place I checked out, Kyochon 1991 is a rip off compared to this place. I paid if not the same price less here and got so much more value and the chicken was actually juicy and delicious. You have a new repeat customer, Good Chicken.

Kimari: glass noodles wrapped in nori, battered and deep fried. Very good when fresh. Eat this quickly because it is not as good after 2 hours. Order this and snack on your way home. Fried pork mandoo: very delicious and one of the best I have had, perhaps because it is homemade. Fat and juicy. Wish they had a sauce to go with this. Still delicious eaten naked. Chili garlic plate was delicious. The garlic and jalapeno sauce drizzled over the chicken wings was the highlight of this plate. I wish they sold it in a bottle. Prize is descent for a plate, but for all you chicken wingers out there, there was only 5 wings, so you will need to order sides. Parking is limited on property. Take out only. I would return to try the other plates, and to get more mandoo.

Good chicken, the name says it all. Although, the chicken isn't just good, it's amazing! The crispy, sweet and savory batter can't be compared to anything. You seriously have to try it out for yourself to understand. I'd definitely start with the original to enjoy the OG and then try the different flavor offerings. We also really enjoys the kimchi mandoo which packs a punch of flavor and spice in each bite. The owner is always so friendly and greets you with a smile. If you don't know where good chicken is I'd definitely map it out before you go. You could drive right past it as it shares the same building as a massage parlor. Parking can be at a premium but there is also a lot of street parking available in the area. Anyhow, if you are in the mood for the best fried chicken of you life, check this place out. Aloha!
