“Very kind staff and great chicken! I highly recommend getting the lunch special.”

“Got the chicken sandwich and tteokbokki to share. Sandwich was so good and rice cake was authentic. We got a combo and the Portion was bigger than I thought.”

“This Chicken place in Evanston completely surprised me. The chicken sandwich was perfectly crispy, sauced just right, and tucked in a soft buttery bun. Every bite hit that sweet-spicy balance that makes you instantly want another. Even the onion rings were spot on. Not your average chicken spot—this one’s a keeper.”

“Amazing place Food was so delicius I will go back again for sure . 10/10 Me gustó mucho el lugar la comida está riquísima y sus precios son muy buenos”

“Korean fried chicken will always hit the spot! This restaurant is the perfect place to come to take a break from your studies and enjoy a delicious meal. The restaurant is super casual and a fun place to share heaping loads of chicken with some friends. We tried the spicy garlic chicken, the snow onion wings, and the tteokbokki. The chicken was incredibly crispy but still juicy and tender. Both of the sauces were good and balanced well with each other. If you’re seeking out Korean fried chicken in Evanston, CM is the place to go!”

“사장님 너무 친절하시고 스노우 어니언 치킨은 사랑입니다~!!😍😍 5살 아들이 있는 세식구 배부르게 잘 먹었어요~^^”

“Awesome Korean style chicken. Crunchy and delicious flavors. All white meat tenders were so good. The bone in half was delicious in Sweet Korean sauce. Honey garlic was pretty good too, definitely going back. The service was very welcoming and kind.”

“Staff is too friendly and nice to be true. We arrived when there was literally no one (3pm) and they were not only fast, but super nice! Regular fries are extremely crispy and not oily at all, and the chicken is something else. Please get the snow one or the one with green onions, must try!!! Decoration also on point, so we will be back!”

“We tried the Curry Tikku and Sweet Korean sauce, and it was amazing! Thank you again for the great food and service; we will be back soon!”

“Great customer service and even better food!!! A MUST try for sure!”

“Came in for the first time to try it out. The place was busy during lunch, and I waited 20 minutes for my sandwich and fries. I picked up the Spicy Garlic Chicken sandwich. Nice thick cut of fried chicken but not all that spicy. The highlight of the sandwich was the creamy slaw and warm soft bun. The curly fries weren't half bad either. Will need to come back and try the rest of the menu.”

“I ordered 2 of the lunch COMBO 5 piece tender with fries and a drink for $13.95. That is what it is listed for on the website AND in store. While ordering at the kiosk I found that it charges extra for the fries and drink EVEN THOUGH it is listed in the COMBO. How is it a COMBO meal if you pay extra for the things that make it a COMBO? My 2 meal lunch that should have been around $30 shot up to $50! The lunch COMBO price is blatant false advertisement.”
