A friend of mine recommended this place as the best Korean fried chicken and I would agree that one of the best for sure!

As for the 🍗, we took the “Easy” and “Tiger” versions. 🍗 Easy: Excellent fried chicken that I suppose was prepared in an air fryer which gives a lot of crispiness, but at the same time some dryness that could easily overcomes with some Kewpie (Japanese Mayonnaise). Grade: 4,6🌟 🍗 🔥 Tiger: Juicy pieces of hot fried chicken, hotness builds up with every eaten piece. #Best spicy chicken ate so far out of all my reviews! Grade 5🌟

For the fried 🦑. 🦑🔥: Crispy, Chewy, Spicy Powder, and Spicy Kewpie = 5🌟

Drinks 🍺🍹: Strawberry soju cocktail: Excellent cocktail, light, refreshing, with fresh fruits = 5🌟 Mango Passion soju cocktail: Rather good, but a little bit too sweet for me. 4.6🌟 Draft beer “Kirin”: nothing particular to say.

Side dish 🍟: Sweet potato fries: Nothing like what I was expecting but it’s ok in its own way. (Very...

Positive: 👍🏻 +many choice for chicken's sauce, i recommend magma chicken, spicy but more special. +The staff is nice and welcome, we are the group of 6 arrived early at 18h30, although we were waiting the last 2 people, staff still let us wait in the table. Love the side dish, fry potato, salad, radish,.. give you a fresh taste while having the chicken. +Reasonable price, we have tried mostly full menus of chicken + side dish + 1 soju and payed 24€ per person.

Negative 😶 +As i mentioned, even though they have varity choice of sauce, it's taste kinda same same... In general taste: sweet a bit, salty a bit, i can not make much difference, or maybe it's just me feel that. +Boneless chicken was a bit dry for me but the wings were good +Small restaurant: Our table is outside the restaurant as we were a big group so it was comfortable however the table inside is small and next to each other, i guess it's much be noisy...

In general: if come back i would take chicken with bone and magma sauce with many side dish :p

Thanks...

Be careful if you go to Olive Chicken, several items on their menu are misleading.

I had the “missing skeleton caramel” fried chicken with “ugly sweet frites” (described as sweet potato fries).

The “missing skeleton caramel” fried chicken is not a plate of caramelized pieces of fried chicken, it is a plate of standard fried chicken on which they will add industrial caramel sauce (exactly the same as the one you would get on your caramel Sunday ice cream for instance).

The “ugly sweet frites” are not sweet potato fries but those are cold sweet potato crisps.

Finally, I don’t think the portions are appropriate. Excluding the lunch menu, the smallest portion you would find for one person is a massive plate of chicken pieces priced at 17/18€ (sides and drink not included). That day, none of the tables did finish their plates…

I won’t come back. Service was...
