“ Here's the move...got to get BONELESS here not bone in. One of these is $20 each essentially and it's not a bad deal to share with some fries between 2-3 hungry people. ”
“ AMAZING FOOD! And the service was amazing. Very good vibes the entire time. I will definitely be recommending this place to anyone who visits Los Angeles. ”
“ Last time I was at chimac star was before Covid and wow to see the upgrade/renovation was amazing to see in person! It's a night life vibe without the night life lol. The musics isn't loud and when I went there was a mix of young and older crowd. It seems like they are under staffed as one guy was hosting all 4-5 tables. He was very sweet and helpful! The chicken flavors here are super amazing! I love that it comes with fried rice cake! Vegan options available! Loved the fries and crispy tofu! Definitely pair it with some Korean beer for that chimac experience! Definitely will be back when I crave Korean fried chicken and beer :) ”
“ Hidden KFC gem! I went here with a friend and got their small (8 pieces) honey soy garlic and snow honey butter wings. Loved the ambiance of this place, good for late night especially since they open late. Wings were flavorful and crispy, service was fast as well. Would come back again! Honey soy garlic wings - 8.5/10 Snow honey butter wings- 8.5/10 ”
“ In the star-studded cast of great Korean restaurants that is KTown, Chimac Star shines brightly as the Big Dipper in a constellation of fantastic offerings. The service is great. The whole restaurant has a dungeon-but-also-tavern-like layout that gives it a nice vibe, and the neon signs sprinkled throughout help build the ambiance even further. Their options for fried chicken is great: going from the heretic boneless wings, to the traditional bone-in, and there's even a wings option (I thought that would just be the bone-in one? But apparently not). Their sides are great too, and there's even buttons on the columns of the restaurant that you can use to call your server. I pressed mine by mistake once but they were super cool and friendly about it. Will definitely be back. P.S.: There is a free parking structure for Chimac Star on the corner of S. New Hampshire Ave and W 8th Street. I attached some pictures to help you locate it. ”
“ Post concert and searching for a late night meal, Chimac was the perfect find. Lots of yummy Korean food and drinking options with lively environment (lots of tables were filled when arriving and good music). My favorite was their tteokboki and ramen. I'd probably try their dry wings without the sauce because it was pretty salty imo. Otherwise great crunch on the chicken and fun vibes. Also free parking lot below the building which was super convenient! ”
“ Everything was delicious! Their kimchi fried rice definitely had a kick to it, which pairs well with the honey soy garlic that is on the sweeter side. Ambience: Really interesting and club like because there are rock artists painted on the walls, neon light signs and LEDs, and I also saw a life size cut out of Jennie. Service: Pretty quick turnaround for our piping hot food. Parking is easy since they have an underground lot. ”
“ I liked it. Good spot for some KFC (Korean fried chicken). Inside is kinda dark but looks pretty cool with all the neon signs. Decent amount of booth tables so it's good for groups. We got the spicy rice cake with cheese. Pretty good with only a mild spice. The wings are delicious. We got the soy honey garlic. Loved it. My friend wanted to try the pickle mayo. It's an interesting flavor. It didn't sound good to me but it somehow works. It's worth a try. Couldn't have KFC without some beer and soju. Service was good. Nice and friendly staff. Easy parking in the small lot beneath the building. Or you'll have to find meter parking. FYI they charge 50 cents per to-go box. First time I've seen that before. ”
