Guest sentiment
A snapshot of what local diners frequently mention about this location.
"JUICIEST CHICKEN EVER! We really love the chicken here. They freshly fried the chicken for us and you can definitely tell the difference. It was so juicy and crispy but not oily. The sauce flavor also good. My personal favourite will be the soy garlic. The sauce flavor and the chicken texture is definitely a good combo. We will definitely come back here for a good set of korean fried chicken. Plus point, the owner and the staff are super super friendly! Looking forward to see this shop grow and succeed"
"We tried ChikenbyJamal for the first time today and loved it! The fried chicken was crispy, flavorful, and not greasy at all, and the tteokbokki had the perfect balance of spice and sweetness. The right level of chewiness. We had ordered 2x for tteokbokki :)) Portions were generous — plenty for one adult and two kids to share. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and the food came out quickly. We’ll definitely be back for another meal soon!"
"Super friendly owners, the chicken was one of the best and most delicious i have ever eaten. Place felt like home, highly recommended to go here and must try the fried chicken."
"Will be my go to korean food for now. The owners are extremely friendly and explain the dish well. Fried chicken is very juicy good amount of sauce"
"Thank you Miss Jezlyn for patiently answering all my questions in detail and for letting me try a small bit of each sauce before I ordered. The chicken tenders were soft, juicy and moist instead of dry as they dont use breast. The size was decent enough but if its small they will give you one extra. The batter was crispy and has a nice crunch like goreng pisang and not too thick or thin that you lose the crunch. Its a bit like cellphone tepung with korean twist Their specialty is their many sauces. I prefer spicy so my favourite is Hot Lava sauce. It has a slight sweet , cinnamon taste initially and then.. wham! the pedas / spiciness hits you. For me, its just the right punch to get your blood pumping and not too sweet that it kills the punch. My second favourite is the soy mustard sauce which has a pungent and citrussy taste that gives a nice asam kind of flavour to the chicken. All in all a good place to try locally made korean chicken by Mr Ahmad Jamal who has been serving people in Kuantan since 2019. Thank you Jezlyn and I'll be back to try the dips next and other dishes."
"Big piece, juicy, chicken tenders. Comes with thick fries. Delicious handmade sauces. Must try all d sauces esp Hot Lava"
"The chicken is objectively very good, and I'm comparing vs both western (Wingstop, 4Fingers, Hotbird) and korean (kyochon, BHC, chickenplus). The fact that it's fried on the spot is a big plus, leaving it juicy and fresh. I've only tried the soy coating so far, and that's good. The kimchi ramyeon also pairs well with the chicken. Service is great, as the staff/owners are friendly. The only downside is: as a result of being fried-to-order, it might take a while (abt 15mins) before food is served. If you're in a hurry, suggest to place your order ahead of time. Will definitely be back"
"Unbelievable great K fried chicken. Excellent and very attentive service by the cashier. Surprising chicken tenders, which is not made of chicken breast but the real deal chicken tenders part. Chicken is very juicy and moist. Trust it is fresh chicken rather than frozen chicken. Not to mention the variety of home made sauce which brings the fried chicken to another level. 100% will come back again."
