I was driving by, noticed the sign and thought āwhat an interesting name, I wonder what the concept is!ā I pulled them up on Google Maps, saw the words āKorean fried chickenā and a perfect rating with over 200 reviews. So, I went back for dinner later that day! I donāt really know if I have the words to accurately describe how good that chicken was. Iām literally salivating as I write this review, just thinking about how good that chicken was! This is hands down the best chicken Iāve ever had in Atlanta. We got the whole bone in chicken with 1/2 tossed in sweet & spicy level 2 sauce and 1/2 tossed in honey garlic sauce. It was served with a mini salad and some pickled radish. Even if you donāt like radish, please try the pickled radish, itās unlike any radish youāve ever had! I also ordered a side of kimchi to eat with the chicken, and I highly recommend you try their kimchi, because they make it fresh in house! For appetizers we ordered the mochi donut cheese balls and fries with truffle oil. Both were epic! The cheese balls tasted like mozzarella sticks with a slightly sweet and chewy coating. The truffle fries are like a flavor explosion in your mouth, especially when you dip them in the truffle mayo. My friend I was with hates mayo and he was dipping every fry in it! Shoutout to Max and Amy, who went above and beyond to make sure our experience was top tier! They should have their liquor license soon, and with that will come an array of handcrafted cocktails I canāt wait to try! Also, the interior is super trendy and they have great music! This is my new spot and I will be trying EVERYTHING on the menu!

This is easily a new top 5 favorite for me. I just left there a little while ago and omg I loved it. The decor is absolutely beautiful. The staff is so kind and the food was amazing! Every thing tasted so great. For the appetizer we ordered fried shrimp and mozzarella sticks. The first bite of shrimp instantly let me know the rest of the food would be delicious. The shrimp was fried perfectly and tasted great. I couldāve literally just ordered that and been satisfied. Iām not a huge mozzarella stick person but these tasted really good! For the meal I ordered the bone in 10 crispy fried chicken and got honey garlic sauce on the side with an order of fries. Guys the chicken was absolute perfection it was so golden and crispy. Like literally everything youād want in fried chicken. I couldnāt imagine it getting any better, but when I dipped it in the honey garlic sauce, I was shocked! The honey garlic sauce was sooo good! Itās like the garlic was freshly pressed. It was just so sweet and garlicky. I had never had a sauce like it. Finally the fries were really good and crispy but what was surprising was the sauce it came with. Honestly I have no idea what it was but it tasted great ! It was like thick mayo dill something ! Whatever it is they should sell it in a bottle ! Overall this place is so great and I love that it stays open late. We will be back very soon!

Best kimchi hands down!! I loved it!! We gave this place a shot because I was craving Korean fried chicken. The style reminded me of my time living in Korea, but the chicken there was in pieces, not wings. Think boneless nuggets with bones. The water was so refreshing! It had mint and lemon. It came out quickly, but it was a while longer before our order was taken. It was Sunday any we got the buy one get one free soju. Try the grape! The bulgogi came out about 30 minutes before the chicken. We think it was someone else order, maybe canceled because it was brought to us in less than 5 minutes. The after dinner coffee was great! As we were about to pay, the waiter asked if we are giving them 5 stars. We felt put in the spot because of the timing. Didn't want any issues with our check. While the food was good, the wait was very long. Also, I thought the garlic dipping sauce tasted "off". Told the waiter and he proceeded to SNIFF it! Then said he would go check in the back. He came back in less than 2 minutes. Not enough time to go all the way to the back to verify and return to our table. Plus he brought back the same sauce lol! I had a piece of parsley that landed there when I first tried it. don't want your nose sauce!! But that's our experience maybe yours will be better. Again, the food was great! Lots of traffic for carryout orders.

Food: We had the half chicken with sweet and spicy level 1 and honey garlic. The sauce on the chicken was really delicious and chicken was also really crispy. We also had the spicy rice cake with cheese and ramen added for an additional price ($6). The spicy rice cake was one of the best rice cakes I had in awhile. Udon fish soup: Light but also very flavorful. The umami and broth tied everything up together. I really enjoyed the different types of fish cakes in the broth. The udon noodles tasted fresh and chewy. Service: The service at Pelicana was second to none. The staff was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely enthusiastic about the cuisine they presented. From recommending dishes that suited my preferences to explaining the intricate details of each course, their expertise and warmth enhanced the overall experience. The waitstaff's professionalism and efficiency ensured a seamless dining journey from start to finish. In conclusion, my dining experience at Pelicana was nothing short of extraordinary. From the awe-inspiring menu to the impeccable service and inviting ambiance, every element worked harmoniously to create an unforgettable gastronomic journey. I highly recommend Pelicana to anyone seeking a remarkable culinary adventure. Prepare to have your taste buds delighted, your senses awakened, and your expectations surpassed.
