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 :)

Ok...so I liked this spot a lot but they just introduced some bulgogi corn cheese fries to the menu since I've been back. MUST TRY. The bone-in chicken was a little less great. Just kind of dainty pieces and some were actually chicken breast with just a little bit of bone rather than a whole chicken thigh.

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.

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.

This was my first time at ChiMak - but why have I never heard of this place before?? The menu is amazing, and because I wasn't super hungry but craving korean fried chicken, we pulled up! Read in another review that there's a parking lot so we pulled into New Hampshire ave ! It's a Monday so it was pretty quiet- but better for us. Really fast, friendly service and chicken cronchy af!!! I already called the besties about this place so we'll def be back for the rice burgers and the combos they have! They also have really cute led lights all over the place that say really cute shit !!! Bathrooms are very clean and this is definitely gonna be the next hot spot in Ktown!! Can't wait to be back

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.
