I like the soy garlic version better. We had ours from the Mountain View branch. As @tm.tm mentioned, they were well fried with a thin crispy skin. I didn’t have the chicken with beer but I suspect that the spicy chili version goes better with beer since the spicing were more in your face whereas the soy garlic was a bit more laid back and . Luke Tsai’s blurb this week on SF Mag said that they were double fried.
Also had the bibimbap, japchae, and Korean tacos. The bibimbaps and japchae were decent. I am having these as leftovers right now as I typed. I don’t think they were better than a typical Korean joint in Oakland or Santa Clara, however. But its nice to have options other than KFC. Or, one can order a plate of KFC and a bowl of white rice like the guy at the next table, and call it a day.
The Korean tacos (3 in an order) with spiced chicken were massive and massively disappointing. The tortillas were bland, the chicken was dry and tough, and the tacos were overdoused with sauces. I like Roy Choi’s version but these were totally different.
