from GoogleI really love this place and the food is always great. I have had it before when the takeout containers were smaller but the sauce used to be more generous giving the chicken full flavour. This time the full size Honey Garlic chicken was a massive portion, easily 14 to 15 pieces in total, and the crunch was absolutely spot on. My only little critique is that the glaze would have been much better if the chicken was actually tossed in it because this time it just looked like it was poured on top. Also, I would probably skip upgrading to the Large Fry for 6.99. As you can see in the photo, it is a nice large box but it was barely filled so it felt like a bit of a skimp for the price. The chicken itself is always amazing, just hoping for a bit more sauce and a fuller fry box next time!
Visited on April 4, 2026 We ordered the half fried chicken with spicy BBQ sauce, and the experience was thoroughly enjoyable from start to finish. The food took approximately 15–20 minutes to be served, which is always a positive sign that everything is prepared fresh. The portion size was generous, offering great value. The highlight was definitely the spicy BBQ sauce—something unique and memorable. It delivered a perfect balance of heat and sweetness, leaving a rich, tangy flavor that lingered pleasantly. A special mention to Irfan, who managed everything single-handedly—from cooking to serving—with impressive efficiency and attention to detail. His dedication truly enhances the overall experience. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and highly recommend this place. A well-deserved five stars. Please note: Seating is very limited (only suitable for up to four people), and there is no washroom available. This makes it more ideal for takeout or delivery rather than dine-in.
We recently visited Kokoriko Fried Chicken to celebrate Valentine’s Day with our family, and it was an absolutely delightful experience! From the moment we walked in, the warm and inviting atmosphere set the perfect tone for the evening. We chose the "Trio" combo, and it was nothing short of marvelous. The chicken was perfectly cooked—crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside. The seasoning was spot-on, adding a flavorful punch without overpowering the natural taste of the chicken. And the portion sizes? Extraordinary! We definitely left the restaurant feeling satisfied and well-fed. Not only did we enjoy a fantastic meal, but the service was top-notch. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure that everything went smoothly throughout our time there. It was clear they took pride in both the food and the customer experience. In addition to the excellent food and service, we felt that Kokoriko truly helped make our Valentine’s Day celebration special. The combination of great food, impeccable service, and a welcoming atmosphere made for a memorable evening with the family. Highly recommend it!
Kokoriko Fried Chicken is definitely worth trying! We ordered the solo combo for 2, and honestly, the quantity was so generous—more than enough for both of us. The chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, just how it should be. The combo comes with 2 spring rolls, crispy chicken pieces, French fries, and a drink, making it a complete and satisfying meal. Great taste, great portions—highly recommended!”
Great service. Employees were very kind and generous. Allowed us to try several different sauce flavours before ordering and made great recommendations based on our tastes. Filling portion sizes and reasonable price. 5/5 would recommend. 🍗
One of the best Korean fried chicken places in Calgary!
Best Korean chicken we have had. The gentleman was incredibly thoughtful, humble and kind! The banana milk tea was delicious and so fresh - best I have ever had I’m not even exaggerating. We will be back! ‘ Bestest fries, bestest chicken and bestest smoovie!’ - our 6 year old
About Kokoriko Fried Chicken
Double-fried Korean-style chicken with a long list of sauces is the specialty at 720 Nolan Hill Boulevard NW, where the chicken is halal throughout. The sauces run from soy-garlic to spicier ones.
What to order
The Spicy BBQ is a standout, with a good balance of heat, sweetness and tang, so it is a safe pick if you cannot decide. If you still cannot choose, ask to split a batch between two flavours. The solo combo for two is generous for the price, with spring rolls, chicken, fries and a drink. The Trio combo suits a family meal, and the banana milk tea is fresh and worth a try too.
Things to know
Ask for extra sauce on the honey garlic chicken if you like it saucy. Diners say the banana milk tea is the best they have had. Seating is small, about four people at most, so takeout and delivery work well. Staff are friendly and attentive, and diners say the chicken is crisp and juicy.
