“I caught myself cleaning up these chicken bones way too much so had to post a review. Chicken is crispy and moist with good sides also. Highly recommend 👌”
“If you like Korean-style fried chicken, don’t miss this shop! 🤤🤤🤤”
“근래 먹어본 피치킨 중에 제일 맛있음 It's the best chicken among all the chicken I recently had. Better than KFC.”
“Food is good. Chicken is well cooked and spicy. (Curry onion chicken)”
“We order kids nuggets, onion sweet soy, yangnyum chicken(sweet spicy) . They use fresh oil so taste clean, crispy and flavorful! Its lots of chicken so its great deal for price wise too. Owner was very generous take care of us what we need. Highly recommended anyone 진짜 한국에서 먹는것 같은 맛!! 너무 잘먹고갑니다”
“This place was great! Seemed to offer to take your order via register, and also on a tablet if you so choose. It could use a tad better house keeping, the tables were still tacky, and some still had coke rings on the table. Overall a great visit and the food was awesome. 7.2/10 on the food!”
“CM Chicken is amazing!! The food is so fresh and crispy. The workers are very sweet and helpful. I enjoy the honey garlic tenders! Also, they provide gloves for eating and toothpicks. Great drink selection! 감사합니다!”
“New choongman location! My other favorite go-to is in Glenview. This one was is now my go-to in Chicago vs the other Chicago CM locations. They have a small parking lot so if it is busy hours, I would get chicken to-go. The interior is pretty small so only about 3 tables for four people and a single window seating area. The water and utensils are self-serve. The chicken tenders were tasty and crispy. I always get spicy garlic with radish and snow sauce and onions on the side. I felt like the sauces here were healthier tasting/home-made vibes. The curry tenders were good too. Overall, would highly recommend!”
“Spicy garlic chicken fingers were amazing. Friendly staff, good price, and good amount of food. A welcome addition to the neighborhood and will definitely be back!”
