Logistics & Planning
Parking: Street parking is very limited in SoHo; paid garages within a few blocks are the most reliable option.
Dress code: Casual — jeans, sneakers, and relaxed attire fit right in.
Noise level: Moderate to lively — conversation is easy, but expect some buzz during peak hours.
Weekend wait: 20–40 minutes during peak evening hours without a reservation.
Weekday lunch: Little to no wait most days.
Dietary Options
Vegetarian options: Limited — sides like fries and some small plates, but the menu is chicken-focused.
Vegan options: Very limited — mostly fries or non-meat sides only.
Gluten-free options: Limited — fried chicken is breaded; some sauces and sides may work but cross-contamination is likely.
Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Yes, if you want something casual and low-pressure — it’s more fun and relaxed than romantic.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Usually yes, especially on weekdays, but expect a short wait on busy weekend nights.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes — older kids who like fried chicken will enjoy it, though there’s no dedicated kids menu.
Best For
Better for: Extra-crispy Korean fried chicken that stays juicy, plus easy sharing for groups.
