The Crispy, Juicy Chicken at Don Chicken Carrollton

Don Chicken is a popular Korean fried chicken restaurant chain with multiple locations across New Jersey New York Maryland, and Texas. They recently opened a new location in Carrollton, Texas, much to the delight of local fried chicken lovers. I had the chance to visit the Carrollton Don Chicken and wanted to share my experience along with some mouthwatering photos.

A Taste of Korea in Carrollton

Stepping into Don Chicken Carrollton truly feels like you’ve been transported to Korea The decor is modern yet homey, with warm lighting, wood accents, and colorful wall art The menu features classic Korean fare like bulgogi, japchae, and different banchan options. But the star of the show is obviously their Korean fried chicken.

Don Chicken marinates their chicken for 24 hours in a homemade sauce before frying it up crispy Their chicken comes in different cuts like wings, drumsticks, and boneless strips You can get it plain or tossed in one of their signature sauces like Soy Garlic, Spicy, Honey Butter, or Half & Half (half soy garlic/half spicy).

Crispy Outside, Juicy Inside

I ordered the Soy Garlic Boneless Fried Chicken. As soon as the crispy golden pieces arrived at my table, I couldn’t wait to dig in. That first bite was absolute heaven. The chicken was perfectly fried with an ultra crispy outside and moist, juicy meat inside. The soy garlic sauce glazed each piece, adding a sweet, salty, garlic punch to every bite.

I also appreciated that the chicken was cut into nice, large chunks rather than small nugget-sized pieces. This allowed me to really savor the crunch of the batter and soak in the juicy flavors. Each bite was an explosion of textures and flavors – crispy, crunchy, sweet, savory, garlicky. Absolute perfection.

More Than Just Chicken

While the chicken is the highlight of Don Chicken Carrollton, I was pleased with all the side dishes I tried as well. The kimchi was delightfully sour and spicy. The japchae glass noodles were savory with bits of vegetables. I also enjoyed the pickled radish, which had a refreshing, tangy crunch.

They have a variety of banchan options beyond the usual suspects too, like braised potatoes, seaweed salad, and marinated beans. There are also specialty Korean dishes on the menu like cheese corn, seafood pancake, and army stew loaded with sausage, spam, and rice cakes.
