ChiKing City in Frankfurt am Main

By far one of the best Korean Fried Chicken I’ve had. Also very affordable.

Bad bad bad…. And grossly overrated. No, no, once and never again. The meat is a disaster, you have the feeling you are eating the remains of a rotten chicken that is covered in excessive breading. So with this shop you are making real Korean cuisine look really bad. Side dishes weren't particularly special either. Service well… I won’t say anything about it.

The food was okay. Had a brief glimpse into the kitchen… a disaster!! Totally unhygienic. Toilets stink and are as dirty as anything. Employee was in the toilet and went to the kitchen without washing his hands. My food came back up afterwards... NEVER AGAIN AND ABSOLUTELY NOT RECOMMENDED.

I just finished eating. The meal was incredibly good! The chicken is tender! I recommend it to you!! It reminded me of South Korea when I went in March 2024. The service is very fast! The dish was served in 10-15 minutes. When I'm in Frankfurt again, I'll come here to eat 😊

I love garlic soy chicken (very spicy 🌶️)

Super good Korean fried chicken! The lunch menu is really fairly priced and goes quickly. Great recommendation for lunch!

It tastes brutal, but it's gone way down, I've been going here for a year, at the beginning there were real chicken pieces in it, now 50% chicken 50% breading, we had gr. L and slda had maybe 10 pieces of chicken in it, the rest was just broken meat, skin and breading, usually early size. M = 12 chicken size. L = 24 Weak today, I'm going to the competition from today

The maximum meat overload - simply delicious! Korean chicken comes in all flavors here and all the ones I tried were delicious. The dishes are delivered quickly and the service is top notch. It's also very cool that you can eat something late in the evening

Staff is very friendly, shop is also fine. Unfortunately I don't like the food at all, lots of breading and little meat.

It used to be good, now it's a disaster! We paid €30 for a large pack of chicken parts. What arrived was a package of a lot of small chicken leftovers/fat/skin fried with sauce. It's unbelievable, but I even say that maybe 5% was actually meat (see photo, just fried leftovers). And the 5% meat tasted very bad, even stale. Not juicy but dry with a disgusting aftertaste which makes me think the meat was no longer good. But don't worry, 95% fried flour with extra sauce should comfort you. I wouldn't even eat this if I got paid for it. It used to taste good. I now warn everyone not to visit this store. I know halal makes it tempting, but as a chicken lover I even go so far as to say it's not chicken anymore. The name should be renamed "fried not-king". I would like to request a statement from the restaurant.

The food was unusually tasty and the service was really good, but the toilet smelled But still highly recommended And the main thing is HALAL

Food arrived very fast, but they rushed us to take our order. They run a tight ship! The base of the chicken seems to be the same for all dishes, with just added sauce on top, and it's not amazing, especially for its price (almost 20€ pp).

I went again... The desk chair was changed and little by little it got better. The food is still good. This is a very tasty chicken that is crispy on the outside and soft on the inside.

Best chicken in Frankfurt! Love all the side dishes as well

Why these good reviews? Lunch menu lukewarm and dry. Everything prepared and warmed up early.

I didn't have time to take pictures Because it was so delicious I went there because I missed the taste of Korean chicken, and I was impressed by the taste, atmosphere, and kindness of the owner. May you prosper 🔥🙂

I was looking for something tasty near the main station for my visit and this place didn't disappoint. Quick, tasty ,well seasoned food from polite staff who even guided me with my selections and amounts.

Very tasty Korean fried chicken

Very fast service with good taste & most of all halal

Great food, very friendly, super fast service. A bit crowded.

Es gab schon Tage, da war das Hühnchen richtig saftig und die Panade hatte genau die Stufe, dass es nicht wie ein Keks schmeckt. Aber heute hatte ich mal wieder den Pechtag: Die Panade war schon hart wie ein Keks und dadurch war auch das Hühnchenfleisch trockener als sonst. Ich habe noch nicht den Zusammenhang herausgefunden, an welchen Tagen es gut und nicht so gut ist. Ich will wieder einen guten Tag erwischen.

The Yangnyom Chicken was delicious and very crispy. I had the very spicy option, which in my opinion could have been a bit spicier, but otherwise the sauce was incredibly tasty. There was also rice, radish and sweet potato fries. That was all delicious too. The radish was only slightly chopped. The service was great, the ambience is okay.

We were so exciting to eat Korean chicken but disappointed this place.. chicken was so hard and frying powder was too thick and little meat. More disappoint was when we went to restroom. It was smell sooo bad and disgusting around bathroom. I thought weird that usually Korean restaurants restrooms are clean but not this place?? Then I realized the owner couple came and they are Chinese and some stuffs are also Chinese. Ttukbokki wasn’t good. I need to fine real Korean chicken place.

Best Fried Chicken in Frankfurt

I've eaten chicken many times... even in South Korea! This one wasn't so good... too bad 😓

I didn't like the chicken very much, it was dry and not soft. The lunch menu at €11 wasn't bad for the amount of food but I wouldn't go back

The most delicious chicken wings, with a thin and crispy shell, they are still crispy when you get home! 😘😘😘😋😋😋 There were really too many people on weekend nights, and there was a queue outside. I had to take it home to eat. The young Korean male boss said that it would be 180 degrees and 10 minutes would be enough. After reheating the air fryer, the taste has not changed and it feels better😋😋😋

Don't understand the hype behind it. Food was anything but tasty!

Extremely delicious, especially the recommendation of the house 😍

There is only chicken here. There are no vegetarian dishes on the menu.

This was my second time, that I ate there and the fried chicken was just as good as first time. The classic golden fried chicken is very crispy and tastes delicious but personally the snow cheese chicken was too cheesy for me and cheese powder didn’t tasted that good. Other than that it’s 100% worth it!

Great food, not for vegans or vegetarians

We've never had any problems eating otherwise, but this time there were two hairs in our food. Once in the fries and once in our rice. Despite all this, we had to pay the full price and didn't get any offer.

Very very nice service Food tastes very good, huge portion

The chicken is served very fast and still warm. The place might be crowded tho so go there early.

Mega delicious fried chicken, try our bestsellers! Large portions, great value for money. Service was quick and friendly. The interior design and ambience could be improved, but I don't mind the delicious food and the snack bar atmosphere. Come back safely!

Chicken like in Korea, even the prices

The food was very tasty 😋🤤 always happy Kind regards

Super tasty chicken. The lunch menu has a great price-performance ratio.

The taste is good, but the service is not very friendly

- We order sweet spicy chicken at the spiciness level 2. But turned out it was not spicy at all. Even tobokki sauce was spicier. So in general, only sweet. - Garlic soysauce chicken: sweet bland sauce, nothing special. We liked the sweet spicy one more. - that tobokki costed 10euros… only some rice cake sticks and onion… we think that was too expensive for such a portion. - ginseng and jasmine tee were so good. Jasmine tee but they also added a few different leaves, so it has complex taste and really scented. The spotlight turned out to be the tea 😂 - Location: near willy brand platz. easy to find. quite a busy restaurant at lunch time. Frankly speaking, I think for such price and the food, it’s not 100% i will comeback.

THE BEST FRIED CHICKEN EVER! Love the food! The service was fast, and they gave us compensations when our take out bag got lost! Thanks 🩵

It's still hearty and delicious. The staff are very welcoming and take care of things very quickly, so there is almost no waiting time, which is nice.

I loved this korean fried chicken place. The chiken was tender and juicy inside and crispy outside. I got the yangnyam chicken with peanuts. The chicken portion was more than enough for one person and the fries a lot. They were very lovely and the lady packed everything in seperate boxes for me to take. Amaziiimh..Highly recommend

My idea of the perfect chi-Ken joint - crispy, steaming hot KFC (Korean fried chicken!) and speedy polite service in a bustling and authentic atmosphere by the train station that makes me want to pound bottles of ice cold soju with my friends and sing karaoke while crunching tasty spicy bites and cooling off with pickled vegetables.

If u like Korean Chicken, this is a must visit place, one of the best in Hessen.

For those who like fried chicken, I can highly recommend it. We ordered 3 dishes, No. 2 on recommendation (bestseller) which unfortunately tasted stale and soaked (probably before being fried). The food was on the table within 5 minutes, even though it was very busy. same with number 8 (chicken wings). No. 6, on the other hand, was very fresh and crispy. The portions are very large. What I didn't like about the ambience is that you can see boxes, crates and stored goods everywhere in the guest room. The door to the preparation room next to the toilets was open, which is not hygienic and appetizing.

You can't really talk about "chicken" anymore, because you actually only get 2% chicken and 98% breading. It just tastes greasy and like oil and they charge a cheeky 15 euros for it... The older man is super nice, but the women are very unfriendly. We were asked to wait outside when it was raining and weren't even allowed to stand inside. Clearly an unjustified price for food that can't even be described as chicken.

They gave me beer that was past its expiration date, so they tried to get money by saying I already drank it. Reheat the pre-fried chicken. Sweet potato. It's not run by a Korean.

too blatant. But service was too fast 😂

I was looking for a halal Korean Fried Chicken restaurant for a really long time. We came especially from Siegen and were definitely not disappointed. The food was just so delicious!!! The chicken arrived at our table after just 5 minutes and was perfectly marinated on the outside and so juicy on the inside. I will definitely come by more often, it's really worth it despite the long journey.

The food tastes good, but I had food poisoning after my last visit there. The toilets and kitchen look totally dirty.

Man kann hier immer lecker und günstig essen. Die vielen Koreaner sind immer ein gutes Zeichen. Was sehr schön ist: das Hähnchenfleisch ist normalerweise immer noch zart und saftig. Immer gut.

The food was okay, but the staff weren't very friendly. A woman smacked her gum while taking the order. I wish she had been friendlier, then we would have enjoyed the food more

Super delicious, authentic chicken, great side dishes too, very friendly waiter, atmosphere was really ok too, we'll definitely be back!

Very friendly and patient staff. The food is also fantastic and even the portions, which are very cheap for the lunch menu, are so large that we had the leftovers packed up. The next meal is then taken care of ;). We haven't tried the soju selection yet, but after the good impression the food made, we can't wait.

best korean fried chicken in frankfurt

The food was great but the decoration was little to nun i also find a hair in my good but server was nice enough to give me new one without question’s asked. We see each other again soon.

Am not a big fan of Korean bbq and not trying it out again after this. The chicken is was very dry and the frying powder was too much (very little meat inside). The sauce we choose was extremely sugary and made the overall eating difficult.

Tasty korean fried chicken in Frankfurt! available in a few flavours. There mid-day deal is really economical.

I discovered the restaurant through a friend and what can I say, the food was delicious and very authentic. Price performance is top. You can order the food in different portion sizes, and you can also choose the side dishes, which means you can easily share the food, which is really practical, especially for groups. So I can only recommend Restsurant.

This is my first time leaving a review, but this place deserves 5 stars!! I first learned about this Korean restaurant last summer. My friend and I came here by chance and were surprised by the price-quality ratio! The portions are large, the prices are good and most importantly - delicious chicken🥰🥰 Since then, whenever possible, I always go here with friends to eat chicken😁😁 My friends, by the way, also became fans of this establishment! I recommend it to everyone

We went there on a Saturday evening and even if that was crowded we just had to wait less than 10 minutes. The waiters were super nice and the food arrived really quickly after we ordered. It's not too expensive and it was delicious and spicy!

A small place always full of people offering space fried chicken in its spicy and super spicy version. The crispiness of the chicken is exceptional. I advise you to avoid the L and super spicy versions even if there are 2 of you and if you are used to eating spicy... you will certainly leave it forward! The environment is nothing special and the staff has to deal with a lot of people so they have very superficial contact with the customer.

The food was absolutely delicious. The portions vary in the lunch menu, there is significantly less on the plate. However, it was absolutely sufficient. The conditions are sometimes unfriendly.

Went there for the first time on Saturday and were thrilled. Everything went very quickly and we found everything super tasty and fresh. Since I have been avoiding flavor enhancers for years and react very easily to them, I can say that I have had zero problems after eating here (unlike fried chicken shops)! So a clear recommendation. Repeat 100%

You can't say anything against the staff, they were very friendly but the food was a disaster. You really notice that you are being deceived by the appearance of the food and that you are eating with your eyes. I don't understand how all these positive reviews can come about. I had gastrointestinal problems for two days.

Best Korean Chicken in Hesse and the surrounding area The food was very tasty and not too expensive. We were two people and paid a total of €32 for two pieces of chicken in size “M” and two drinks In addition, this amount of delicious Korean chicken will definitely feed two people. If there had been four of us, we would have ordered two sizes “L” each, which would have been enough

Best Fried Chicken!! It's worth it again and again 🫰🏼

We had garlic soy chicken, yang neum chicken, green onion chicken and fried gizzard. It was pretty good potions and tastes pretty good. This is pretty common Korean style fried chicken, goes well with beer!

This is a Korean fried chicken restaurant opened by Chinese. The chicken is very stale and even smells strange and smelly when you bite into it. The chicken nuggets were fried repeatedly and were very dry and unpalatable. The habits are very stale and rotten. There was hair in the green salad, so the waiter asked the waiter to change it. It's very unauthentic. They used sauerkraut instead of pickled radish... This is a terrible restaurant and I will never come here again.

Food is very nice. The portion is big enough for 2. Recommended!

Simple, authentic, tasty, quick and perfect for an evening followed by a few beers. I'm looking forward to the next time there!

Super tasty and cheap prices. Only recommended!

It was very tasty, would love to come back

I can only recommend it to everyone!! Super tasty food, fast and good service. Simply top!!

Prices are okay, the service was great and the chicken was very tasty. The location is not ideal, but you get significantly less of the Assis in the train station district than some other restaurants in the area.

I really wanted to try some good fried chicken that wasn’t kfc and I’m not disappointed, the chicken was more than enough I couldn’t finish it , but I really liked the flavor of it , medium hot is also kind of hot 🔥, so beware , I loved how sweet the workers are , and the atmosphere was also not bad. I will definitely visit again and try more things ☀️

The atmosphere was really good and pleasant. The chicken was good too, but I was expecting a little more in terms of the sauce. Still, it was a good experience.

A very crowded shop with many people waiting in line. The satff was nice and generally it was just way too full and loud, with tiny distance between tables, so it was not comfortable at all. As to the chicken itself, we only experienced deep disappointment. The meat was too dry and covered with too much fry powder.

It was my first time in ChiKing City and I have to say, everything was delicious. Tteokbokki tasted very good. Golden Fried and Soy Garlic Chicken also tasted delicious. The staff were also very friendly. I would really recommend it, overall I really liked everything.

Absolute recommendation. I don't know what could be done better. The Korean Fried Chicken is super tasty - crispy, juicy and a very generous portion. Not too greasy or anything like that at all. It was honestly some of the best fried chicken I've ever eaten. The service is quick and attentive and the food is on the table extremely quickly. You wait at the entrance until you are assigned a seat - the table is cleaned and off you go. Of course it's not a "fine dining experience" - but the ambience is right and you feel comfortable. I'll definitely come back.

While eating, steel wool came out...

Great KFC! Best in Town! Beer from the tap! What else do the lads need :)

Very tasty lunch with a good price/performance ratio.

I rarely give 5 stars, but this place deserves all 5. It was a wonderful discovery for us. We are becoming passionate about Korean cuisine, and we wanted to try fried chicken for the first time. There was no better place than this. Everything is handmade and really delicious. The staff is very friendly and kind. The prices are really great and worth it. We will definitely be back very soon!

I was there for the first time today and the food was great! Prices very humane! Luckily for us, we still have the lunch menu.

Best fried chicken that I’ve had, simply delicious.

Best Korean Chicken in Frankfurt!

Best fried chicken that I’ve had, simply delicious.

Man kann auch die Sauce extra bekommen. Das ist gut, weil so die knusprige Panade nicht durchweicht. Auch im Test einmal eine andere Sauce (hier mit den Frühlingszwiebeln), aber irgenendwie schmeckt es am Besten ganz ohne Sauce. Der Krautsalat war sehr sauer. Immer sehr freundliches Personal

Super fast service. Really awesome and delicious food!! Definitely try number 2 with sweet and sour sauce.. super cool! And very, very nice staff. Always my pleasure ⭐️

Very tasty food. Staff very accommodating. The waiting time for the food is very short. Only parking is a little more difficult.

The Chicken was very good. The sweetness compliments the saltiness. The Portion is large too.

Became aware of this through the YouTuber Bernd Zehner. The Korean fried chicken is "abnormal"! So solid crunchy and soft and juicy on the inside! I ordered a small portion and medium hot... the portion was decent, I almost couldn't have done more and medium hot numbed my mouth quite a bit, and I often eat spicy food. The restaurant is decorated quite soberly, the only drawback in my opinion, maybe a little more Korean flair, but a sensation in terms of price and cuisine. Will definitely go again!

Green onion soy chicken and Yangnyum chicken (very spicy) are the best order combination. The umami, sweet sauce and freshness from green onion couldn’t be any better. And the spiciness of Yangnyum completes the whole meal. Be ready for some queues during peak hours.

There may be better chicken in my dreams, but not in Frankfurt! Unassuming from both the outside and the inside, Korean Fried Chicken joint Chiking City serves large portions of perfectly seasoned chicken pieces. The service is very attentive. When my friend dropped a chopstick from the table, a replacement arrived within seconds without asking. I have been a guest here several times and each time I have been impressed by Chiking's taste. The chicken is nice and juicy and the breading is crispy. The sauce is flavorful and never too spicy (which you might expect from Koreans!) The portions are really big and therefore quite affordable. In my opinion, however, the lunch menu is a bit lean due to the significantly smaller portion.

Delicious! Personally, I thought it tasted really authentically Korean. There are tons of others where it doesn't taste authentic.

A "Korean" KFC, what a great idea. The food was very tasty and spicy here also means “German spicy”😉 The lunch menus are relatively cheap and the quantity, good for me, too much for others and so on. Just try it yourself. Gladly again.

Even though I was there just before 1:00 a.m., the chicken was soooo good!!! I have to go back there.
