" I visited Chimac on a rainy day and it was the perfect comfort food spot. The spicy chicken soup was flavorful and just the right amount of spice. The fried chicken, however, didn't match the hype; it felt oily and a bit overcooked. Service was fast and the server was very accommodating. The vibrant atmosphere really lifted my spirits. Not sure I'll return, though. Looking to try other spots next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely love this place! It is a hidden gem in Victoria. The interior has a warm vibe, making it a great spot for gatherings. I went for lunch and ordered the spicy chili boneless chicken with a side of kimchi. It was perfect! The chicken maintained its crunch even with the sauce. I can't say enough about the service; our waiter was attentive and friendly. If I lived closer, I would be a regular here! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have been visiting Chimac for years now, and it just keeps getting better! Their new menu additions have been fantastic. I tried the creamy onion chicken and it was delightful. The service was top-notch too; our server was very nice and made great recommendations based on what we liked. It's always a welcoming spot to relax and enjoy good food. I would recommend Chimac to anyone looking for quality Korean cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I definitely had a mixed experience. The fried chicken was excellent—perfectly fried and delicious! However, we had a long wait time for our order to be taken and the staff seemed overwhelmed. Despite the chaotic service, I would consider going back for the food alone. " (*Curated Review*)

" Loved the vibe of Chimac! It felt cozy and family-friendly. We ordered a variety of dishes and everything was so tasty, especially the fried chicken and kimchi. Even with a slightly long wait for our food, it was totally worth it! I would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for a bite of delicious Korean cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Tried Chimac after hearing rave reviews, expecting a top-tier experience. While the fried chicken was indeed good, I found the flavors to be a bit muted. The service was friendly, but we did wait longer than anticipated for our food. Still, a nice spot to consider for casual dining. " (*Curated Review*)

" I finally made it to Chimac after seeing ads everywhere, and it did not disappoint! The fried chicken was unlike any I've ever tasted—flavorful, crispy, and just the right amount of spiciness. The service was friendly, and while the atmosphere was lively, it wasn’t too loud. Can't wait to return and try more items from their menu! " (*Curated Review*)
