" The atmosphere is solid, and the food selection is good. I tried the sweet and spicy chicken and, while it had a good taste, I was hoping for a bit more seasoning. The prices are reasonable, and the portion sizes can definitely fill you up. Overall, it was a nice night out, but I can’t help but feel the flavors weren’t as vibrant as they should be for Korean cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" My friends and I are regulars at Dakgogi, and it never disappoints! We love the friendly staff and the chicken, which is always fresh and crispy. Try the spicy garlic chicken; it's wonderfully flavorful. Despite the busy atmosphere, we always feel looked after, and the portions are generous. I can’t recommend this place enough! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had high expectations based on the reviews, but my visit fell a bit short. The chicken lacked the crispiness I hoped for. The vibe was youthful and fun, but the service lagged during peak hours. I would say give it a try, but I might not rush back immediately. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Dakgogi last weekend and I was not disappointed! The food was delicious, particularly the soy garlic wings – they were so flavorful and crispy. The atmosphere is great, too, like being at a fun party! Even though it got busy, our server was really friendly and helped us navigate the menu. Portions were quite ample for the price, and I’ll definitely recommend this place to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place is a delight! We shared the half and half chicken and were thrilled with the flavors. The soy garlic was especially good! The atmosphere has a cool vibe, and our server was friendly. I will remember Dakgogi for my next group outing – definitely worth the visit! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic fried chicken! I visited after hearing rave reviews and was not disappointed. The colors and decorations in the restaurant make it bright and inviting. The staff was helpful and friendly. I got the soy garlic chicken, and it did not disappoint! Definitely a new favorite spot for me and my friends. " (*Curated Review*)

" I enjoyed my meal, but I had a completely different experience than I expected. The chicken was perhaps over-done, and it arrived with hardly any side options, which was disappointing. Service was friendly yet felt a bit disorganized. Overall, I might give it one more try in the future. " (*Curated Review*)
