Great small and hidden place at lougheed’s korea town owned by a family. The place is a bit hard to find but well worth your time! The fried chicken is tender and the portion is good for the price. We also tried the soup and it was also really good!!
Once upon a time I would’ve given this place a 5 star rating, but today everything seemed a little off. It’s been a minute since I’ve been here (maybe 6 months+) and I usually come for dinner, but today’s lunch service was pretty mediocre. I remember the chicken being super crispy and juicy.Today, the chicken was a mild crunch at best with a serious lack of flavour/sauce. I’ll give the benefit of the doubt and will come back again, but sadly it wasn’t up to par this time around.
The fried chicken tasted amazing, the seafood tofu soup was tasty and services was excellent. One of the pretty server was nice enough to give a cookie to me god son which was very cute and thoughtful of her ( thank you). Very nice servers and very courteous. I will go back for more chicken ??
This place is waaaaaaay over hyped. With the myriad of fried Korean chicken joints out there this restaurant does not even come close to being at the top. Also as the other reviews have noted, the beef bone soup is on the bland side; the meat was flavourful but the broth tasted watered down. Honestly I thought the free bone broth at Kimbab Cheonguk is even better :/ Oh and the fillings in the dumplings (half & half) were dry and crumbly in texture.
Sweet spicy ??♀️??♀️(nicely battered, not too thick and fatty. The sauce is at an appropriate amount without any wired flavour, won’t feel bad after eating. The meat is okay
The food is honestly mediocre, the place is overrated.Pros:- staff are nice- seating is spaced apart between tables- fried chicken has light fried batter which doesn't taste very oily/heavy- the dumplings are worth trying, good taste, must eat right away to avoid the wrap getting hardened- meat comes off the bone easily from galbi tang- the potato side dish is niceCons:- due to the location, there were quite a few flies disturbing us during the meal (not the end of the world but worth mentioning)- the staff are far away, so it's troublesome to flag someone down. Rather you'd have to walk up to get service.- the galbi tang does not have enough of a beefy flavor / bland- the white pickled radish is very small, which is inconvenient since it's hard to cleanse the palette- the Kimchi stew is too sour- the japchae is mediocre- OG fried chicken tastes bland / no salt or anything to accompanyUnfortunately, I probably won't be coming back here.
Delicious shareable Korean fried chicken, many flavours, highly recommend this place, on top of the friendly service
snowing fried chicken is a bit cold.The pork soup is weak, if you like light soup you may like it.
I have been a regular of this place since me and my wife discovered it more than a year ago. Nadri does more than just Korean fried chicken, but that's what we keep coming back for. The chicken is always hot off the fryer. The sauces are never cold and always flavorful. I just had an unpleasant experience today where the KFC from this other place, the sauce was served ice cold and when we approached the staff about it they refused to change it. It just makes me appreciate more for the attention Nadri puts into their food. Keep up the good work people!
This place is really a hole in the wall in a fairly hidden and the least expected place. It’s located in a large Korean open mall at the far end of the parking lot which is right beneath a staircase. It’s a food stall inside a ‘food court’ which it is the only stall there serving food. When I walk in the 8 tables were already occupied which says this place is quite popular. As we had dinner an hour ago we ended up ordering the Korean fried chicken which we think must be signature since it is the name of the business. We had #17 Half & Half which is original flavour and a choice of another flavour. To keep the Korean flavour we chose the Sweet & Spicy. For $26 + tax the portion is quite decent since it is boneless as well. The chicken are crispy not oily and juicy on the inside. I can imagine this would go well with a nice pint of beer which would be a nice take out option for next time. It also came with some white pickled radish which complement well. We only ate a third there and end up packing to go. I also like that they serve in stainless steel chopstick, cups and dishes instead of disposable.
