Great chicken – best gizzards since my Granny made them for me. The pickle sauce is the secret sauce but spicy honey sauce is the goat. Very chill atmosphere – friendly staff! Oh and please keep the okra on the menu! So good!

On business trip and this place was shown to have highest rating for Korean fried chicken. Did not disappoint! Got the soy garlic drumsticks with fries. The drumsticks were huge, very crispy, juicy and flavorful without overly salty. Just right. The fries are the thicker kind, crispy and seasoned perfectly as well. Sorry for horrible picture as I inhaled half my fries and realized I needed a picture to give this place a great review. I’m very happy and highly recommend this place to everyone.

I recently tried CM Chicken in Knoxville and ordered the garlic soy tenders. They were absolutely delicious — perfectly crispy on the outside with great flavor in every bite. The garlic soy sauce had a rich, balanced taste that wasn’t overpowering but still packed a ton of flavor.
At first, the price felt a little high, but once I tasted the food and could tell how fresh everything was, it definitely felt worth it. Quality and flavor made up for it. I’ll definitely be back to try more from the menu.

This place is a hidden gem & I just don’t understand why they don’t get the hype that they deserve! People please get out & try new places & new foods! Let me start by saying the male employee that was working there that day that we tried this place out for the first time last week was so friendly, welcoming, & so informative about their food & menu! You rarely find that kind of service & hospitality! Now let’s get to the food. This is the best fried chicken that me & my son has ever had. My son got the cheese monster chicken tenders. It came with eight huge chicken tenders that were so fresh that they would burn your mouth if you tried them right away! The flavor was a sweeter cheese flavor and the crisp on the chicken tenders was out of this world. I got the curry snow onion five piece chicken drumsticks. Those drumsticks were huge. The flavor was amazing. The chicken was so fresh. You had to wait for it to cool down to be able to eat it. The crisp on This chicken this was like I never had before! The curry flavor was delicious and with the snow onion on top made it even better! I highly recommend this one! I love that the chicken from this place is not greasy at all! Everybody needs to try this place out if you like chicken tenders or any type of fried chicken! They also have chicken wings & whole fried chicken pieces! They have several flavors & toppings for the chickens as well! we also got their gyoza dumplings And they were very good but the star of the place is the chicken! I can’t wait to take the rest of my family. I know they will love this place as well. Also, the atmosphere and the decor in this restaurant is like you’re in a Korean bar/restaurant! They also have a big selection of alcoholic drinks if you’re a drinker or like stuff like that!

We went to CM Chicken for the first time today because my brother said they had the best chicken he’d ever had, and he wasn’t wrong. It doesn’t matter what you order, everything is fresh and delicious. Quickly made to order and brought right to your table. Everyone was super friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. We all give CM Chicken and A+

This is the best fried chicken I have ever had anywhere! Better than chic fil a or kfc. And honestly, the pricing is comparable. Delicious sauces, and crispy chicken. What more could you ask for?

CM Chicken delivers an incredible Korean-inspired spin on fried chicken. Each piece is fried to perfection with a golden, crunchy exterior and juicy, tender meat. The sauces, while a bit sweet, perfectly balance savory and sweet flavors, making every bite irresistible.
I can’t wait to return and try their spicy selections. If you haven’t been yet, check them out—you won’t regret it!

Wife and I have been wanting to try this place for a few months now, and I’m glad we did. We ordered the fried pickles, curly fries, Garlic Spicy and Red Hot Chicken Tenders. The fried pickles were cooked great and not too greasy, the curly fries were shockingly good I was just expecting a usual curly fry experience but these really stood out to us. Both of those items were very fresh and hot.
We love spicy food so we ordered the 2 hottest sauces available for our chicken tenders. The spice was not were I was hoping it would be, it left much to be desired for sure. The Red Hot sauce was the favorite between each one and it did have a very slow building spice that after eating all of them left a little burn. The Garlic Spicy was definitely less spicy than the Red Hot so not spicy at all and had some very noticeable sweetness that I wasn’t expecting. I will also note that the chicken tenders by themselves were great.
Some interesting things I want to point out, is firstly and most importantly they don’t have ranch dressing at all so those of us who love ranch dressing with fried chicken and fries better bring your own bottle or use their ketchup. Also, the dip that comes with the fried pickles is not ranch and they called it a “Pickle Sauce” which is fine but they charged me extra for another serving of it because I thought it went well with the fries and chicken. I just found it strange to charge extra for an extremely cheap mayonnaise based sauce, but whatever.
Atmosphere was fine several tv’s with K-Pop playing and one TV making pastries… Service was also great very attentive and consistently refilled our waters.
Would definitely come back and it is also kid friendly because they have low spice options as well.
