Yum Yum Chicken & BBQ — Restaurant in Airdrie

I frequented some Korean chicken joints in Calgary and this was the first time I purchased Korean chicken in Airdrie. I thought that the chicken was overpriced for the quality that I got. I purchased a half order fried chicken 6 piece and it was boneless. Normally I have order is between 14.99 and 1799 in the city and they give you an option of seasoning it or not.

This establishment charges you different prices if you intend on getting the fried chicken seasoned or not which is what gives Korean fried chicken is charm. This was a little annoying because in Calgary you don't have to pay a premium for seasoned fried chicken, but we are in Airdrie after all and there's very limited competition.

I found the chicken for the price I paid to be small, crispy and not very meaty. I even found some of the pieces to be so small that I had to go get additional food for my boys. I ordered a small order of fries as well that were onion flavored. Although, they were good, they certainly could have made the portion size bigger.

I was happy to support a local business. However, I do enjoy getting great tasting food at a good price and neither of those two things were met. 😔

Sorry, but that's just my review. Enjoyed this restaurant's Korean fried chicken, but I did not. Please note that my review is only in comment of the Korean fried chicken. I did not try any of their other dishes so I don't want to comment on those so my review may change if I decide to purchase one of their other dishes other than Korean fried chicken...

This is the place my family used to like, but there is no reason to go this place any longer. We've visited there several times since a couple of years ago, but recently realized everything there has been going down. Nothing special with chicken any more. To be honest, KFC is better now. Today, we found a clear reason we don't need to go there any more. Very disappointed with keeping making an excuse and their attitude, never saying sorry. We ordered spicy and regular chickens separately. We realized that these two taste and look exact same, all regular. One of staff said two different chickens as we ordered. They took chickens back to their kitchen while we were working on them, put them back to our table with spreading spicy seasoning on them. The lady (working at kitchen) appeared, said "Again they were spicy chicken we served, but we put more seasoning on them, because you guys said it is not enough spicy. Also many of them visiting here can't eat if too spicy". Are you kidding? We are not talking about too or less spicy. We ordered both spicy and regular, but they are all regular. What they said is all three of us have ageusic tongue!

To store owner/staff, it would be better to say just one word "Sorry". If that, we would just say "No worries, we are okay with both regular, just mistake". You need to listen and admit fault if customer is not satisfied. Otherwise, you will lose more customers. Hopefully, it helps both store owner and someone who will try...

Overall, really good, I would rate it higher but found it a bit on the expensive side and value not the greatest. What I did get was really good food. I ordered the lunch special which was a half chicken with fries and a drink and I tried the grilled beef rice bowl as well. The chicken was really good but I thought I ordered too much but the pieces ended up being smaller than expected. The scallion chicken had a good sweet flavour but balanced and fries were generic crinkle fries but also well seasoned and had a bit of a garlic flavour to it. The grilled beef or beef bulgogi was really good, rice didn't have much flavour but the beef was tender and nicely seasoned and very savory. There was a sauce with it too which was a nice addition. Probably won't be back often but if I'm craving good chicken other than the usual generic fast food chicken I'll be there and I'll be back for the bulgogi. Please check this place our if you haven't yet P.S order the chicken ahead if you can because it takes about 15 minutes to make which I won't complain...
