This is Korean fried chicken. If you like wings, this takes them to the next level with Asian flair and a special frying process that makes them addicting. Try to lunch specials or order some chicken Read more

I had the chicken strips, I liked the seoul sassy sauce but the bbq was good too.
Lisa KJune 25, 2014
The wings are huge here, baby birds. The radish is the thin, stringy type......NOT the cubes.
Jay PatelAugust 2, 2013
Best wings in the city hands down. Seoul Sassy is the way to go
BigTab R.N.June 17, 2012
I think the chicken's only good if you get a sauce-I got the regular fried chicken (b/c great FC doesn't need embellishment) and it's really bland. Also-it's a tiny, busy space w/ very little seating
Matthew HouserJune 5, 2015
A "crisp", delicious, saucy protein infused- delight, for your post work kickin' it

The chicken wings are HUGE and flavor is on 10!
Alicia JayDecember 14, 2014
Try all the sauces--they'll let you split an order of wings into two sauces.
Zachariah MuhlenkampJune 14, 2020
They are a wing place. and they have no napkins... Let that sink in. And they are seating people outside. Do they really care about their patrons if they don't even have napkins?

Come for the bibimbop stay for the wangs.
Kellen TerrettAugust 21, 2014
The wings are out of this world, but don't forget about the bowls!

The Baby Buddha bowl is plenty big for one person - no need to get anything larger.

Seoul sassy wings are the bestest. Crisp BBQ wings are almost the bestest.
Roberto FloresJanuary 7, 2013
Go easy on the wings, the smallest order could feed two if your not that hungry

Always dip your fries in atomic sauce for a kicker.
Leah HammerschlagAugust 7, 2017
I think it's overrated. Chickens kinda dry. Buffalo ain't real buffalo

Employees were very kind and helpful. I've had better wings at many other places; Crisp did not live up to the hype unfortunately.
