Sam Sam Chicken Box Hill — Restaurant in Melbourne

Authentic Flavors: The dishes perfectly recreate traditional Korean flavors, from classic kimchi and doenjang soup to Korean fried chicken and grilled meat. Especially their Korean rice cakes and stone pot bibimbap, the sauces are perfectly balanced, with rich and diverse textures! Fresh Ingredients: The meat used in the fried sauce noodles is tender and juicy, with the pork belly having a perfect balance of fat and lean. One bite and you'll be super satisfied! The pickled cabbage and radish are especially appetizing. Thoughtful Service: The staff are very enthusiastic and will proactively help with grilling the meat, changing the grill plates, and patiently explain the eating methods. The serving speed is also very fast, and there is no need to wait for a long time. Ambiance: The interior decoration has a strong Korean drama vibe, being clean and tidy. The background music playing K-pop songs makes one feel like they are on the streets of Seoul. It's perfect for a group of friends to have a meal or for a couple to have a date. High cost performance: Generous portions, reasonable per capita price, and sometimes there are group-buying discounts. After the meal, they will also offer Korean traditional rice juice or ice cream.

Tried this new place in Box Hill, you ordered online via the QR code. Had their special 2 fried chicken for $29, soy garlic flavour and (accidentally)soy mustard. The fried chicken came with cabbage slaw and pickled radish which is nice. Lots of sauce on the chicken. It was boneless chicken, I dont know if that special was only for boneless, I didn’t see the option when ordering. Also came with a few potato wedges mixed with the chicken. Chicken was nice and crispy. However the soy mustard chicken was a bit strong with mustard, so I wouldn’t get it again. The soy garlic was so yummy though. Overall happy with their fried chicken, will come back and try other flavours.

Edited:

Tried their lunch special, which is jjajangmyun and boneless fried chicken. Also tried kimbap for the first time. I haven’t had many jjajangmyun before, but this is definitely the best. Has nice sauce, pieces of veg and meat in it (not just onions like other places I tried). Fried chicken was in sweet and spicy and it does have a kick of spiciness, but very nice flavour. Kimbap was also nice, it was spicy pork one but I dont feel it was spicy. Also it’s nice that they have free ice lemon tea and ice coffee, although i didnt like the ice coffee. Ice lemon tea...

Great food, great customer service, staff are very friendly and hardworking.

I especially recommend the "Chic ❤️ Kim 64".

Probably the best value for money thing that you can order there.

I do have a few criticisms though.

The place is wayyyyy too loud. This is a restaurant not a club. On the few occasions I ate here, I didn't feel like I could enjoy my meal because the music/speakers here are so loud that if i sit at the store for any extended amount of time my ears start to hurt a lot and i get a really bad headache.

Also a lot of the items like the sides are a little overpriced and not really worth the money like the kimchi fries or mozzarella sticks.

There were a few occasions I wanted to eat here but decided not to because I didn't want to have my ears assaulted by the speakers.

I don't have a problem with music at a restaurant but it really doesn't need to be THAT loud. I know it's probably to attract customers, and to market your business, but your customers aren't deaf, even if you reduce the music volume by 20-30% we're still going to be able to hear it, but the difference would be we won't have a headache from eating at the restaurant.

If the music wasn't overbearingly loud, I would've...
