" CHOOK was a delightful surprise! The fried chicken was everything I hoped it would be: tender, crispy, and seasoned perfectly. We also loved trying the bulgogi fries. Great job blending flavors! The wait staff were attentive and friendly. I will definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited CHIKO on a friend's recommendation, and it did not disappoint. From the moment I walked in, I felt welcomed. Tried the BBQ ribs and was amazed at the tenderness and flavor. Prices were fair for what you get. I will definitely be back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Very good fusion restaurant. Service was fast and friendly. I was very excited to try the full monty but was slightly disappointed as I thought it was going to be a little bigger. The flavors were good, so I might try it again. A bit noisy on a busy Friday night, so consider timing. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about CHIKO! We shared the pork belly bao and the crispy Brussels, and both were out of this world. Even our picky eater friends were impressed! If you're looking for a new go-to spot, this is it! " (*Curated Review*)

" Inconsistent experience. The food has potential but falls short in execution. The kimchi fried rice was bland and the pricing felt a bit high for the portions. The service was perfect though; our server was very kind and helpful. Unsure if I’ll return for food. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a lovely dining experience at CHIKO! The combination of Chinese and Korean cuisine is executed brilliantly. I especially loved the XO shrimp porridge that was rich in flavor and comforturing. The staff was friendly and made us feel welcomed. I can't wait to come back and try more dishes! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you love Asian food, CHIKO is a gem! The Korean fried chicken had the perfect crunch, and the flavor was spot on. We ordered several dishes to share, including veggie dumplings and the brisket rice cakes. Everything was rich in taste and reasonably priced. Plus, outdoor seating added to the charm!
