You know how you find a restaurant that’s a hidden gem and you want to be your secret forever but you also want their business to thrive? Yeah, this is one of those places. The food is soooo good! They give wonderful portions and the best part is it isn’t expensive at all!I ordered the grilled chicken rice bowl with soy ginger sauce and I couldn’t stay away until I was overstuffed. This place is heaven on 11st. GIVE IT A TRY!

Hotdog + cheese crunch dog + hot Cheetos topping. First off .. great cheese pull! ? I always forget how filling one of these can be. I like that it was cheese, hot dog, a bit more cheese, then hot dog. Not just cheese then hot dog cause I miss the cheese by the time I’m at the bottom.Crunchball - the sauce that came with it was so good! Dipped some of my hot dog in it. The beef inside the ball was soft, moist, and flavorful. Personally not my type of favor so I wouldn’t get it again but I can see others enjoying it.I wanted to also get the kid size popcorn chicken that was on the menu on the wall but not available on the ordering machine. Not sure if they got rid of that. Was a bit confusing.

Service: Friendly and quick.Atmosphere: They have a modest eating area at the back of the store. Although the area is not big, it is definitely comfortable enough to dine in with some friends/family.Food: I ordered two Korean corn dogs, pictured below, and tteokbokki. I found all three dishes to be mediocre.Parking: Street parking

As a person who was born and raised in Cali, there was no shortage of good Korean food. I was visiting Philly with my friends and we were craving authentic Korean food. We heard of this place from our in-house chef back at home and he highly recommended it. They were able to sit all 15 of us with no issues. It’s a fast casual restaurant but the service there had us questioning if it was a sit down restaurant. The server, Jennifer (big boss man if you’re reading this she deserves a raise) gave us her recommendations and it did not disappoint!! The fried chicken had the perfect ratio of dough and chicken. The popcorn chicken was also delicious. We also got the japchae and fried kimchi rice balls which were a great balance with the savory flavors of the chicken. They also had cards and crayons for us to draw on while we waited and they displayed them on their walls which was cute and fun to do! Overall, this was a great experience and the next time we’re in Philly, this is the place we’re going to.

Good chicken, a little dry, but still tasty ? the service was good
On a downtown Philly run, we stopped to check out Crunchik’n. We ordered the 3 Tender Combo (2.5/5), 2 ChruncgDogs (4.5/5) and a Melon Strawberry Fruit drink (3/5). The Tenders are giving general tso and the fries were very greasy and hard. The Chrunchrogs were really good. We could not decide which we liked best (with or without the hotdog). The Fruit drink was a bit different. It’s not sweet and the aftertaste is giving perfume but it’s good at the same time. It’s a tight spot and could get crowded quick. They have a cute space for dine in as well and a Great Cashier named Mark who was very patient, helpful, knowledgeable of the menu, and well spoken. If you happen to be downtown Philly you should check them out. (6.5/10)

This is our go-to spot for Korean fried chicken. It’s the best! Love to support these fine people. The menu has so much more than just chicken, as well. The rice bowls, the noodles, the crunch dogs… all are excellent!

Wow , just WOW ! Bonchon finally found some competition! I didn't think I could find any other place to rival the Korean fried chicken I have had at Bonchon but this place is on par if not better than the famed award winning Korean fried chicken chain which I have been frequenting for almost 4 years now. Crunchik'n serves a nice variety of Korean dishes such as bulgogi, japchae noodles, and of course spicy kimchi along with sandwiches. They have fried tofu for the ubiquitous vegetarians and vegans here in Philadelphia too. The deep fried dumplings which I added on to my Popcorn Chicken Rice Bowl were to die for! So delicious , they are a must have with every meal. If you love Korean cuisine and/or fried chicken this little spot will not disappoint you.
