wow chicken

just visited for the second time, i enjoyed the different tastes, its not your average chicken joint, it trys to have a bit of class, pricing is a little on the higher end.....but i think its worth it, the complaints i would have are to do withservicewhich i found lacking in both efficient and competent work and class,servicestaff were quite rude and loud and frankly abnoxious, if it hadnt been for that i would have upgraded them to a 4

i would have rated 3.8 if i could, but it’s close enough to 4. i enjoyed my two pieces thighs (no bones) combo with garlic soy sauce seasoning. but you can choose crispy, garlic soy sauce or spicy seasonings. french fries was also freshly made and crispy. my husband had the spicy chicken as per photo, it was really really spicy, hahaha. simple and modern decor.servicewas friendly and pleasant.

the food here is always good, like a healthier/ less greasy kfc. the problem with wow is that the customerserviceis often poor and the servers are typically rude.

worst customerserviceever.

i had ordered for pick up half original and half sweet sauce chicken and pickled radish on dec 09 2016 around 9pm. i came back home and found a piece of original chicken undercooked as seen in the pictures and the pickled radish gone bad. however, it was already passed their closing time and it happened only one time out of many of experiences in wow, so i didn't care much.

i ordered today, on jan 11, 2016 around 8:30pm, the same food by phone and mentioned to the server about my experience for them to be more cautious when cooking. the sever said just 'ok' with no single word of apology.

i went to pick up food and she was busy on the phone. there was another server but the lady with the phone served us kept talking on the phone. moreover, she was too busy on the phone, so she recalled the price very impolitely in korean, '26, 26달러' (yes i am korean).

furthermore, she didnt give me the food because she's now too busy talking on the phone and talking to the another server. i had to wait as i didnt want to be rude just piking up my food on the counter.

i felt like i was being ignored the whole time while i was in the restaurant. i have never experienced this kind ofservicebefore. i don't know if i can call this 'service'.

i just lost my appetite and definitely will never ever go back to wow.

seriously, wow to the worst customer service.

thanks for reading.

went in on a saturday night at 10.11pm. we ordered our food and waited, i went to grab plates and cutlery and the server told me no, you can't stay to eat. i asked why they say they're open until 11pm if my husband and i can't stay to eat for 20 minutes. she told me it was because she had to clean the restaurant. at the same time, there were 3 other couples sitting in and eating their meals; one of which hadn't received their food yet. after she told us we can't stay to eat she brought the other couple their food, to stay. just the worst customerserviceever. i should have cancelled my order and walked out.. the food was alright, but nothing special and i won't ever go back. if you're looking for delicious korean chicken with great customerserviceas well, i highly recommend you head over to olive chicken!

food is ok , not many selections, only deep fry chicken and deep fry chicken . also over price.. andservicesucks. i don't think we will back again and won't recommend anyone to try.... sorry..

it's in the name.  wow.   very tasty.  crispy.  i won't say how may pieces i ate by myself but i wanted more.  the sauces they served with were delicious.  theservicewas a little awkward, maybe more of a language barrier thing, but overall a good experience.

very crispy chicken!! even the fries are extremely crispy. very friendlyservicebut also hilarious. the waiter made my day xd.

wow! is all i can say. this is the best *bad-for-you-but-i-don't-care* fried chicken restaurant i've ever been to. so far, on different visits, i've had the wings, the breast and the chicken fingers ... and all have been out of this world. the batter is highly unusual, and awesome. it's very crunchy, very tasty and not at all greasy (as you would expect from fried chicken). and it's real chicken! it's not some formed chicken meal; it's the real awesome thing. and the fries! i love the bulgoki fries. best i've ever had. and portions are surprisingly large. this korean alternative wins the day over anything else i've ever tasted. ever.the décor is also quite nice. it's not the usual sterile environment you find in other fast-food places. this place is meant to enjoy. the design is nice, it's clean, it's colorful, music is great,serviceis excellent (they'll bring it to your table), and everything is served up just perfect. couldn't be a better addition to kensington.i have to resist going here too often, 'cuz it's just that good!

never going back kfc again after my experience at wow. they have super tasty and flavourful crispy fried chicken, as well as addicting bulgogi seasoned fries! the original fried chicken is a bit plain and lacks seasoning for me, but that could just be a personal preference; i'd opt for the different seasoned chickens. interior is cute andservicewas good!

been here a few times, chicken is consistently tasty. well seasoned, crispy and never greasy. the $11 meal comes with a good portion of chicken, salad and fries. filling. the spicy chicken had a slow burn which compounds the more you eat. theservicewas quick and the decor is neat. they were out of the frozen bubble beer which i really wanted to try.

looking for something different yet the same to nom on this blistering hot summer day. i've been trying to go to wow chicken for a while now. 

i got me a lunch special; this consisted of 5pc wings with fries and a pop ($8.99). i opted to "upgrade" my fries to seasoned fries, i went for the bulgogi ($0.5) flavour.servicewas quick as i was the only person there at the time, the restaurant was very clean and modern looking. totally in love with their wow chicken logo on... everything. to me... its always the small details that count, and that'll always bring be back. i did find it a bit awkward to be sitting in the corner waiting for my food when there were so many empty seats around; i was happy enough watching the korean mvs playing on the television there as a distraction though.

the food was steaming hot when i got in my car. the chicken was crispy and tender with every bite i could get down without burning myself. the coating of the chicken was very crunchy, but there was little to no seasoning to the chicken at all; quite bland. i think it would've tasted much better if it had sauce. loved the bulgogi flavor on the fries, it was sweet and was a great change from "unseasoned" fries".

would come back on a regular basis if could find better free parking in the area...

always awesome. try everything.serviceis something to be desired but the overall experience is good. love the korean music videos playing on the big screen.

definitely the best place for korean fried chicken in calgary. it's atmosphere is warm and cute, they have a big t.v and play kpop which adds to its authentic korean ambience. their chicken is the crispiest, and least greasiest chicken you can find at the same time. the price is reasonable and theservicewas fairly good. this place is a great idea for hanging out with a few friends for beer + chicken,  or just going on dates.

love this spot. love the weird k-pop blasting on the tv screens. the chicken and fries are consistently good.servicecan be slow at times and inconsistent so that is why i don't give it a perfect score.

i bring a lot of my friends from out of town here. great local spot.
