WOW Chicken Kensington

Their buy one get one free promotion is a lie. We ordered a seasoned half size fried chicken, expecting two order, but this is what we got: drumsticks, drumsticks, and more nuggets. Maybe a piece or two of breast? But this is literally just looks like one order.

I ordered wing meal online with sweet and spicy sauce, side salad and cheese fries. But I received plain fries with sauce on the side. I literally just wanted to have a nice meal after a long day at work. I just wanted my cheese fries because I paid for it.

they’re not lying.. this chicken actually made me audibly say WOW! 😩 i got the regular fries & the 10pc soy garlic chicken wings. these fries might be the crispiest fries i’ve ever had, and the chicken was awesome 😭 the soy garlic glaze was perfect, it was just the right amount. i’ve had chicken before that tastes great but only for like the first two before it gets sickening, but this wasn’t like that at all, i was drooling the *entire* time 🙂‍↕️ the ambience was so nice, i loved the seating and it was nice that there was an accessible outlet (idk if there were more.. but there was one for sure) bcs i was able to do some work as well. the service was great too :) i loved my first experience, i can’t wait to take more ppl with me next time and try the other flavours!!!!

Wow chicken is not wow anymore!! The manager “bryan” i hope im right i talked to him on the phone Asking why im complaining and he explaining to me the grams of the chicken. Idc about ur chicken grams !! What would i cared is the chicken u serving is unbelievable!! My fingers is bigger than the chicken !! Who will be happy about that!! They don’t deserved a star!! The only good thing i got atleast the cashier who’s stay positive!! After the complain that she needs to deal everytime 🙄🙄

This Wow chicken is going downhill. I ordered chicken thighs and chicken breast pieces yesterday, and when opening the boxes, I thought those pieces should be called chicken nuggets rather than thighs and breasts. It looks big in my picture, but trust me, it is really tiny. I didn't taste any soy sauce in my chicken pieces. $40 for those pieces it is not worth it.

This is my favourite place for Korean chicken in Calgary. The service was good overall (but took a long time to get water refills) and the food was excellent. Possibly the best fries in the city and the chicken was so crispy yet juicy! The original could have more flavour (tastes mostly like breading) but all the flavoured options were great. My favourite is probably garlic soy, but spicy was really nice too. The interior design of this space is by far the nicest of any Korean chicken restaurant in the city, and the prices are fair too. Will definitely be back!

Chicken is well marinated. I love their soy garlic flavor. I prefer the boneless thigh chicken than the bone-in chicken parts. It was juicy and I paired it with the cheese seasoned fries. The place was clean and service was fast. Best Korean fried chicken I’ve tasted so far in Calgary. I’m glad that their lunch meal extends till 4pm. I will be back for more of their flavors.

Amazing place for Korean fried chicken! My first time going here and I ordered their original chicken, and seasoned fries. The chicken was perfectly cooked and seasoned. It tasted delicious with the bulgogi dip. The fries were seasoned well with the garlic seasoning, slightly overcooked but still tasted great, and paired well with the chicken. The staff were amazing too. Great suggestions for the dip and flavour for the chicken and fries. Definitely satisfied my cravings for chicken, and I would go back here again.

My sister loves this place. Not sure why? But I have always wanted to try Wow Chicken. The restaurant itself is huge and it is great for large groups. I ordered the Gang-Jeong small chicken. It was not bad for $15. It was very saucy. I had it on the sweet end but there was a hint of spiciness in the chicken. It tasted some what like sweet and spicy pork but it is chicken. The chicken was really crispy. I don't think I will order the Gang-Jeong again. It was just too much sauce. I do like Korean fried chicken and Calgary has a lot of restaurants that serve Korean fried chicken. This place is really a 3 stars restaurant. Service was ok. They are in a good location near downtown and is in a neighborhood with lots of young people living in the area. Also this place is a perfect hangout place for young people. They are open late till 10pm.

Cheap and tasty I got the lunch meal with soy garlic sauce and chili fries. Definitely not the best korean chicken I've had but I still enjoyed it.

I ordered the spicy chicken burger. I know korean fried chicked are famously good and its the first time I tasted this. I like it because it is double fried from what I read. The burger is big. Bun is too small for the burger but its ok in this case. It has lettuce and sweet and sour sauce. It's really sweet. Sometimes I like em sweet but there are times I don't. Good thing I'm in the mood for it today. Crispy and freshly cooked. I also liked the fries which is plenty enough for a combo. The place is clean. The staff was friendly and smiling. I heard the owner interviewing applicants and he was emphasizing friendliness and making recommendations to customers. That's really good to hear. Yes I would recommend this place. Theres plenty of parking in the street.

Soy and garlic chicken breast, Bulgogi and Cheddar fries are all good. I ordered drumsticks and unfortunately there were not cooked. One of them had blood coming out as soon I forked it. They refund me for my order.

I really like Wow Chicken, especially when I'm craving some fried chicken and really good fries. Pictured is the lunch special for $9.99 - 3 pieces of chicken (you can choose regular seasoning or upgrade to spicy/sweet for $1), a pop, and fries (which you can upgrade to bulgogi fries for $0.50 - you HAVE to do this bc the bulgogi seasoning is amazing). If we aren't doing the lunch special, we order half order of shallot chicken (comes with a honey mustard sauce, a container of shallots, 6 pieces of chicken), half order spicy chicken (it does get to be quite spicy by your 2nd to 3rd piece, but I love it regardless), a large bulgogi fries and a side of radish $1.99, which is super fresh. Their chicken is always super fresh, crispy and perfectly seasoned. Their servers have been friendly every time we've gone there. My only complaint is sometimes the service can be slow, even when they're not super busy, but it's something I can live with for those bulgogi fries!!

We were still hungry after our breakfast of pastries so we were on the hunt for something more substantial. I spotted Wow Chicken and their sign advertising KFC lunch specials sounded perfect. We walked in and ordered a box to go. Interesting that they have a takeout window (no one was manning it). Interior is modern and they actually have cute, comfy looking seating. Service was a bit odd; I think the lady told us to wait at the front after we ordered but we just sat down at a table and waited there instead. - 3 piece drumstick meal ($9.99) - one of their lunch specials. Comes with fries and a pop. Chicken was fresh, moist and not too greasy. Batter was satisfyingly crispy and the fries were excellent. 3.5 stars. They have a second location in Chinatown. Interesting that both are nearby/beside Quickly's, not sure if there's a connection?

I finally understood why men can't resist hot chicks because they are sooooo irresistible. I'm amazed at how these chickens are still so crispy when they are completely seasoned with the spicy sauce! Fried crisp on the outside, the meat is also juicy and falls off the bone tender! More on my IG: @annthefoodie

Ordered Wow Chicken via Ubereats. I would normally pick up but I had no time to go myself or send someone. I ordered a full order of Original Chicken ($24.50) and large Seasoned Fries ($7.50). This fed four of us, plus we had four pieces leftover. The chicken itself tasted like better quality than Popeye's - juicy and not stringy or fatty. Each piece of chicken had lots of skin that was battered high with crunchy crevices. The fries were covered in a sweet seasoning of bulgogi, chili, and cheese.

Ordered their seasoned soy garlic boneless chicken thighs and bulgogi fries for dinner from the Royal Oak location. Disgusting!!! It was so salty, almost like eating a hand full of salt in ever bit. I called them just to let them know, the owner/manager was in denial. Didn't even have the decency to call me back, instead got some kid to call back. Maybe change their name to Worst Chicken, definitely no wow in their chicken.

I like fried chicken as much as any southerner! This is great Korean chicken. I enjoyed the variety of all types of their chicken as I tried them all. I was definitely Wowed by WOW Chicken. Don't Chicken out- If you like fried chicken head on down. As Foghorn Leghorn would say. " If you want to catch a Chicken Boy you have got to do it right". and this restaurant does!

Bought chicken yesterday and warmed it up today and guess what ITS STILL FUCKING CRISPY!!! That is absolutely amazing. And the chicken is still juicy and delicious so whatever y'all doing keep doing it! 20/10 always recommend

I despise people and business that take advantage of the youth. 5pm on a Sunday, empty restaurant. 6 teenagers stop in and order food are asked to leave unless they order more. This is ridiculous! They were forced to take the paid items and eat on the street when there clearly are tables and shelter available to them. To top it off, their order wasn't even the full amount. Taking advantage of people that won't talk back is sickening

I arrived in Calgary and wanted to try a quick spot for food. I decided to check this place out. If you are looking for parking, there's side street parking, but it's in quite a busy area of Kensington. The place was not crowded and the service was quick. I ordered a half order of the Gang Jeong chicken with the spicy sauce. The half order was more than enough for just me. The chicken was very crispy! For being a fast food type of restaurant, the chicken was delicious! The spiciness from the sauce made my mouth water and was quite spicy, but it was so good. I would recommend this place!

My wife and I have ordered from this restaurant many times. The chicken is fresh, cooked to perfection, and delicious. The deep fried vegetables are very tasty. In fact, I ordered chicken again tonight from this restaurant. With extra soy garlic sauce, an order of chicken wings, and a salad. The food arrived in a reasonable period of time, it was delivered by just eat, and the chicken was still warm . The chicken was delicious, cooked to perfection, and fall of the bone tender. The salad was crisp, and there was sufficient Caesar dressing. Enough salad for two to share. I would have saved money if I had not ordered the wings. However, I have enough food for two meals, and a snack. Will definitely order again from this place.

Got the lunch special - 3 piece chicken + fries + soda for $9.99. $1 extra is you want sauce. I found the lunch portion to be smaller than expected. The chicken was pretty good, light and crispy on the outside and juicy inside. Flavour wise, it was a little bland but that can be fixed if you eat it with the sauce. Highly recommend the soy garlic sauce! I'm not usually a big fan of fries but these fries were excellent.

Looking for some quick deep fried chicken that's a bit different from your regular KFC? Well, that's what wow chicken is for. Just ordered a boneless chicken meal with fries and pop. Worked out to be just under $10. Pretty good deal (ignoring twoonie Tuesdays at some other chicken vendor). The taste isn't for everyone though. It's a bit light on the flavor, and it's best to come with more than one person to order a bit more and share (though there really isn't any argument to leftovers). Personally, I prefer the spicy gang-geong wings with a bit more flavor, but I don't mind the original recipe. They seem to put a lot of time in the esthetics of the place including place mats, plates, wet naps branded with the wow chicken logo. I would be surprised if the bathroom also had toilet paper with the branding. (Kidding!) This place seems to see people in waves and can be a bit busy so just depends when you come by. The Korean music videos are a nice touch and a nice change from Taylor Swift. With the loss of Lido Cafe, it's nice to see another Asian establishment in the neighborhood.

Wow! Delicious Korean chicken. I'll come back here. I don't get the haters. This is no junk kfc, diharrea for days kind of food. This is freshly cooked and yummy. I ordered a half of the original crispy and it was too much food. Good for sharing.

I'm torn on this place. When it's good it's great, but when it's not it's awful. It can be the best chicken ever, but if the oil is old you can taste it and the service is better at you average fast food restaurant. Like many comments reflect, they treat you more like an inconvenience than a customer and maybe should simply switch to a drive up window if they don't appreciate dealing with the customer service aspect. Like the Soup Nazi on Seinfeld, it's like they expect you to appreciate paying them for the honor of eating the food, but the food isn't consistently awesome enough to tolerate the attitude.

Had the Original recipe chicken - half and half so one half that was just the plain recipe with no sauce and the other half with soy garlic. Original recipe tasted and had texture of Popeyes chicken. Me who enjoys lots of sauce and flavour, I enjoyed the soy garlic. It wasn't drenched in sauce, just lightly dipped in it. Also tried their gang-jeong chicken which were very saucy and were popcorn chicken (boneless). They're spicy and sweet and a thick crispy layer of batter.

Their soy garlic here is my favourite in town so amazing and juicy and sweet and savoury . So so so tasty I 100% recommend coming here and trying . Their cheese fries are also really food or ask for bulgogi fries .

The food is great but the service can go from horrid to terrible. EVERY TIME we go there on a non-busy day (Tuesday) in person or call, they refuse to accept my friends and I. It is because they don't want to serve us and they just want to go home early. Their business hours say they close at 10 and we arrived at 8:30 and refused to serve us. I think they are doing this behind their boss' back. It is very unprofessional and makes the business look bad.

Set up cafeteria style, you place your order (in my case, crispy chicken wings and my friends got the Gang Jeong and we shared a large fries) and take a seat while you wait for your food. K pop music videos keep you entertained, as do their unique drinks (frozen bubble beer anyone?). The chicken comes out super crispy (not greasy at all!) and moist at the same time. Even though it's fast food, the staff still checks up on you to make sure you've got everything you need. This place is a win in my books!

If you are in the mood for fried chicken - you can't do any better than WOW! Chicken! This place ONLY makes fried chicken. (fries and a few pickles and things on the menu as well). There is original recipe (think KFC but crispier, and more tasty), and their Korean spicy/sweet chicken as well as a few other flavours. No nonsense, straight to the point restaurant that specializes in fried chicken! Once you taste it, you'll be back again and again. Decor is very nice. Trendy asian cafe style, service is pleasant. I'll be back again and again!

Wow Chicken is awesome. I came here with one of my friends on Friday, the 9th of October and was really impressed. Not a lot of people because we avoided the lunch/dinner rush but it's a really cool place with an okay atmosphere and it's awesome that they play Korean music videos on the TV while you eat, haha. We both got the boneless chicken meal which comes with fries, salad, and your choice of dressing. The fried chicken was fresh and tasty and awesome, the salad was good, and the fries. Holy crap. The fries are AMAZING here. You HAVE to get them. I know this is primarily a chicken place but you have not truly experienced Wow Chicken until you get their fries. Genuinely some of the best fries I have ever had in my life, if not THE greatest. I was craving those fries hours later still. Portion size is big and I saw everyone who was eating there on Friday needed a box to do takeout for the rest, but whatever, it's so good. You'll be glad you took it home, even if the fries get soft in the box after. This place's service is seriously fast too. We got our food (gigantic meal) in like 10 minutes max. Kinda wish they'd pour out the soda in glasses, but just in the can was adequate enough for me. Oh, and it's so cheap and affordable. The boneless chicken meal together with pop for me was around 11 dollars! That's insanely inexpensive. I recommend you try this place out if you love fried chicken and fries. I definitely wanna come back!

Ever since my favorite Korean burger joint (Giant Burger) turned into Olive Chicken, I've been hooked on Korean sweet and spicy chicken. So I thought I'd try Wow Chicken in Kensington for lunch since I'd heard they had lunch specials during the week. My lunch date wasn't very hungry so we decided to share the special, which was 3 pieces of chicken breast served with fries and a soda for $8.99. We upgraded to the sweet and spicy sauce (because why else would you have Korean chicken without it?!?) and also added Bulgogi seasoning to the fries. The chicken came out hot and fresh, with the sticky glaze on the side for dipping. Now THAT is finger lickin' good! The meat was "basically boneless", and we got three big pieces. The seasoning on the fries was great too - subtle but had a nice sweet flair that made the regular fries rather special. I wish the special still came with the salad as pictured by former patrons on Yelp, but I still feel like it was a sweet deal. Really nice restaurant on the inside, too - beat that KFC!

It's a shame to what I'm going to have rate this place . To start off with the positives is that this place make some killer chicken . Probably one of the best I've had from a fast food restaurant. Unfortunately the place isn't well maintained . Tables were sticky and dirty and the service takes forever . Another thing to point on that really irritated me was how rude the waitress were . And they expected a big tip . I ordered food that was worth 60 dollars with a group of friends and she literally straight up said" that's it ?" You have to give us more and I gave a 6$ tip . That was way to generous considering what we got from the workers .

Tried this place tonight for the first time ever and I have to say I am super impressed! We got half and half and the chicken was moist and juicy and the sweet and hot sauce was simply delicious!! The gravy is absolutely amazing as well with great flavour and great consistency. Definitely a big hit and we will be coming back!!

This two star rating is based on the premise that this is a fried chicken joint, which despite the signage may not actually be the intent (details to follow). Off the bat, the half chicken (~$11) seemed pretty small...I polished it off and was still looking around for something to eat. The chicken itself seemed not to be marinated in any noticeable way. The coating was very crunchy, but not seasoned at all. Unlike at Olive Chicken (another Korean fried chicken spot in town), a sprinkling of salt did not bring it to life. Another subtle distinction is that the skin at Olive is crispy (a satisfyingly delicate hardness that yields once bitten), whereas at Wow it's just thoroughly crunchy (hard after each chew). I had to douse the Wow chicken with Frank's Red Hot to make it becoming, and noticed that it remained pretty crunchy. I'm going to give them the benefit of the doubt here and assume the lack of seasoning and the crunchy coating are designed to accommodate pungent sauce (like chicken wings, or the elusive Nashville hot fried chicken). The chicken can be ordered tossed with a sweet, hot, or garlic ginger sauce, and I'm suggesting this is the way to go. Maybe they were inspired by Anju's much fêted gojuchang wings? As I mentioned at the start, this is a two-star fried chicken place, but may be a higher starred place if you go in expecting and ordering wing style chicken.

I love the chicken here :) Would recommend if you are in the mood for some Korean fried chicken! My personal favourite is the fried chicken with the shallot on top and also the chili sauce one. I opt out to get the half half so I can eat both flavours :D I don't particularly recommend the fries or the veggie tempura. Not that they are bad but I don't think they are anything amazing and I would rather fill my tummy with more chicken instead :D I like the cute little interior inside the restaurant. I also like that they serve Korean beer here. My only wishes are that they delivered and/or stayed open a bit later. Beer and chicken would be a pretty good late night meal with friends! Street parking in Kensington, it's always a bit of a struggle finding any but if you get lucky, you can park right in front of the restaurant.

Ok so this is my first review for 2014. I guess Korean fried chicken has finally made its way to Calgary, Alberta. I found out about KFC (Korean fried chicken) in Anaheim, California and damn it was good. Beats Colonels recipe and Church's. I have yet to try Popeyes. So this isn't my first rodeo with KFC in Calgary. I have tried Olive Chicken. I prefer wow for many things. Let me start with the fascility. Wow....very nice decor and Korean music videos playing. Staff was alright, you know...attractive young ladiea. The management team have their own table and just watch these girls. Downside to this place is one restroom. Wanted to wash my hands but their was a guy doing his business. Ok so let's get to the food. Side of fries with bulgogi spice. SO GOOD! And washed it down with a frosty bubble beer. Nice touch. We ordered the shallot chicken and the gang jeong (warning, pretty spicy). So the wings came with this sauce that was highlighted with thin slices of green onion strands. The crunch of the skin with this nice oniony salad. Really good. The gang jeong. ...have your drink ready for this boneless spicy chicken nugget. Really good! Yes I know I said that already, this is a must try place in Calgary.

Fried chicken with a Korean flair. What do I mean? You ever travel to a another country, and they have the same thing, but it's just...different? This is Wow Chicken. It's hard to explain, but like foreign travel, I enjoyed every second of it. Wow Chicken didn't seem like I was at a Korean restaurant in Canada - no, in fact it goes one further. Wow Chicken feels like you're at an American restaurant in Korea, in Canada. It has all the southern specialties like fried chicken, french fries, and Coca-Cola, but it's all just a little...different. Some "differences": - There's a 'fast food style' over-the-counter menu, but when I walked over to order from it, I was intercepted by a server, shown to a table, and given a menu. I still don't know what the counter is for. -The asian style feel-good slogans like "New Food New Happy!" on the outside of the building, and "It's Amazing Taste!" on the menus. - Being the only guy in the restaurant who had to drink Pepsi. This made me laugh - I ordered a Coca-Cola, and was asked if Pepsi was ok. "No problem" I say, only to see other people drinking Coke. No, they didn't run out, the people who came in after me were allowed were allowed Coca-Cola Why couldn't I have one?? I feel like something got lost in translation... - It's a classy looking place and confusingly so! With sleek looking rustic modern wood tables and walls, I found myself thinking "this is a fried chicken joint?" All in all a fun experience with really tasty chicken! Definitely check this place out, and write a review! I'm still a little confused by it, and I really want to hear what other people thought. Maybe you can shed some light on what, for me, may have been a little lost in translation. Enjoy!

I was in Calgary for the weekend in Oct. 2014. I was disillusioned with all of the suburban sprawl and icky American style corporate restaurants. So I went to Kensington and stumbled on Wow Chicken. This has got to be fried chicken nirvana. I had the Original wings one evening and they were so good I went back for lunch the next day! The 2nd time I had the breast strips. Also original, they were juicy, juicy inside and crunchy crispy outside. I don't know how they do it but the best fried chicken of 2014! You can sit inside in a comfortable and tasteful dining room or do take-out. I think they also have some Korean staples on the menu but let me tell you, the chicken is what knocks it out of the park. You gotta try it if you are in Calgary. (Plus, Kensington is a cute older, leafy neighborhood that is enjoyable to walk around and window shop.)

I havent visited this restaurant in a while and the service has gotten a lot better! Service from here was not the greatest from my past experience, however everyone seems to be very knowledgeable and kind The food has always been great, very crispy, even with the sauce on the chicken Will definitely come back soon!

Solid 3.5 stars. Seems to be a Korean tradition, they sure know their fried chicken, even better than those Taiwanese nuggets at the bubble tea places, but I digress. For $7.99, you sure can't beat the value, comes with regular fries and a can of pop, but feeling generous, I upgraded to the sweet chili fries, which was a terrific choice. A good tang to it. but of course, the highlight is the chicken; it's not as hard-crispy as KFC or Church's...a bit more tendier breaded skin... Good atmosphere for a Sunday lunch, casual atmosphere with a bit of a modern decor. no amex. Friendly service, nice Korean server even asked how was it ;) Liked the bench seating.

Came in at 9pm, rude and refused to serve us because they were closing at 10pm. Have enjoyed the food here before but this isn't the first time service has been lackluster. Will not be returning! I should add that there are PLENTY of excellent places in town to get Korean fried chicken, and be treated with respect at the same time. Olive Chicken and Bonga come to mind.

Crispy chicken, loved the shallot chicken and spicy specialty chicken with a combination of beer. Tastes great! 2 small chicken +beer +zero coke about 38 bucks. You can dine in or order take order, and it closes at 9pm. So if you arrive late, probably take out only.

Every time I get chicken from here it's always in appetizing. Not quite what you would expect from a place that specializes in chicken. If you're on the hunt for some good fried chicken you'd probably have better luck at Mary browns.

Chicken was so bland, no flavour, so greasy, and not worth the price but the fries where ok.

I've been here a numerous amount of times. The chicken is always fresh and delicious. It's never over cooked and very crispy! You must try all the sauces! They always play Korean music videos in the background which is always a plus if you're a KPop lover. :)

Food was amazing and you get so much for such a good price! It's really high quality chicken and the batter is out of this world. Not sure why they only have 3 stars because it was so yummy.

Compare to other fried chicken places out there, this restaurant offers good korean style fried chicken. I don't understand why bad review. Anyways, I like this restaurant and I hope it lasts long enough that I can stop by when I feel like eating Korean style fried chicken. I hope my review doesn't annoy others since I am not one of those professional reviewers out there :p

The chicken was gross. Tasted like dried up, frozen, rubbery, pop corn chicken garbage. The fries were alright. Pricey for what you get...

Wow chicken has the best fried chicken in the city. It's too bad their service is so horrible. I've been forgotten numerous times regardless of how full the restaurant is. They told me what I would like and what I wouldn't and wouldn't let me order what I wanted. It's so good though! I wonder when I'll have had enough of the bad service to stop eating there.

I decided to check out WOW Chicken for lunch today and i ordered the shallot chicken and a small garden salad and fries in bulgogi flavour. the chicken was not as crispy as i was hoping and the flavour was a little weak. they pour a spicy mustar sauce on the chicken, but i could barely taste the mustard. The fries was pretty tasty, it was not really crispy but the bulgolgi seasoning made the fries taste sweeter and the seasoning was good. Overall i had better chicken at Yum Yum, but the atmosphere at WOW was more loungy and hip a great place to hang out with friends, they should expand their menu with more sharing apps and tapas style, that would give the place a ultimate hang out foody lounge type feel.

I ordered half chicken extra crispy last week and it was horrible. The chicken was still raw inside and we got really sick. I will never order from this place again

Over priced, small chicken pieces, batter tastes like nothing. I tried for the second and last time tonight, I just don't get what people see in the chicken here. To the people here who think this is 5 star chicken go check out KFC, you'll probably want to give it the Michelin Star!

Went there for the first time today and ordered the spicy wings. Didn't like it because the spicy glaze was rather sweet and salty and not spicy. The sauce was too complex and it ruined the wings. I had imagined spicy to be like the KFC hot wings but no they're more like a sticky glaze. But the wings themselves were of excellent quality and very fresh, so I'll still give this place a second chance as I think the original flavored wings are better than the flavored ones.

I was so excited to see this place in kensington growing, every time i walked by thinking of how amazing this new place will be. For the few months its been in the making, its a huge dissapointment. These people have put all their money into signs and napkins/trays/plates with their logo and branding, skipping the main thing : food. They are right next to CPU where I can get a massive slice of pizza for 3$ or a whole pizza for 12$, I went in here one day and checked the menu, ordered some wings for 15$. Thats it people, 4 wings for 15$ - total ripoff. The wings had the asian flavourings and were crunchy and fatty, but not worth it when I can head to any bar and get 10 cent wings all night. I was expecting the wings to be so phenomenal that I'd have a heart attack ont he spot. Sorry to dissapoint, they weren't.

Great restaurant facilities. Clean and modern. Service is prompt. Food came out quick. The fries are awesome. The chicken is good also but the fries are the star.
