Reviews for Jesse Boy Korean Fried Chicken (Hollywood) in Los Angeles, CA

Came here for dinner before a performance. I don?t eat meat so I bought the cauliflower and fries. OMGOODNESS delicious! I wish... I could have eaten the whole thing. The employees are really nice. Parking is in a lot. I will be coming back! Read more

I'm leaving a negative review at this restaurant with usually great food. I make a 30 minute commute just to come eat their... chicken, which shows how great the food actually is. But I have had multiple issues when I make an order for pickup, whetherthey getting my order wrong like giving me wings instead of tenders. Or when I picked up my order for 3 tenders and rice, I cometo a surprise to see they only put 2 tenders instead of 3. Why it might not seem like a big deal, I expect to get what I pay forregarding my meal, and keep in mind it's a 30 minute drive home for me with the anticipation of eating their delicious tenderswith ponzu sauce and white jasmine rice. I tried to contact the store about this issue but they didn't pick up the phone, and itled me to their voicemail which was full, which leads me to believe that they don't answer any feedback. This isn't a knock onthe food. It shouldn't be up to me to check my food to make sure everything is okay, but it seems that there might be anadditional step in the future if I come back here again.

Kind understanding staff and amazing food. Due to communication issues and being a newbie at the location, I ordered chicken... options when I really wanted the cauliflower options. After waiting for the order and upon checking that there was a mistake dueto our miscommunication, they happily agreed to remake the order, this time with the cauliflower version. I half expected that Iwould have to pay again but the staff was so kind, accommodating and understanding. If you guys are reading this, I appreciateyou all! And thanks for being amazing. Read more

Disregard photo because I took it half way into eating it! Got the chicken bowl and cauliflower dish. A unique kick to fried... chicken and cauliflower. Food was overall good. Good portion for the price. Loved the sauce but it was too salty. Prettyfilling. The radishes were bad. Got it delivered on DoorDash! Was sad because the dried food was soggy (due to heat beingtrapped). Would try this place again! Unsure about service or cleanliness since mine were delivered. Read more

Ordered on Grubhub, and it came very quickly. It was packaged and sealed nicely. The chicken tasted really good. I got the 3... spicy chicken tenders with fries and added an extra tender. They were pretty spicy. I didn?t finish the food so I had leftoversthe next day. Also, do NOT hesitate to get the aioli dipping sauce. It?s $0.50. Do it - It?ll be worth it. Good prices for whatyou get. Would definitely order again online or even in-person! Read more

I have been hearing a lot of positive things about "Jesse boy Korean fried chicken" but kept forgetting to try it. They are in a... small location in the middle of a forgettable strip mall at the intersection of Vine and Santa Monica Boulevard. When I saysmall location, I mean small. They do not have a dining room. You therefore must get your order to-go. As with all modernrestaurants, they do have an online presence where you can place orders for pick-up or delivery. Since all orders are made freshwhen you place your order, it is highly recommend that you place your order in advance and pick it up once it is ready (if notdelivery) simply because there is very little space to wait for your order and it takes around 15 minutes on average to prepareyour order. If you find yourself waiting there for your order to be prepared, you will also find yourself trying to be as smallas possible while waiting for your order. Is the food worth the effort and the wait? You bet it is! I had the fried chicken bowland an order of Jesse boy fries. The fried chicken bowl was delicious. Fried chicken tenders on sticky rice with a very healthymixture of fresh vegetables on top. The chicken tenders were plump and perfectly cooked (juicy not dry) and it all went togetherto make a healthy meal. I couldn't just stop at healthy though so I had to get their version of cheese fries. Cheese fries arenot exactly unhealthy for you but they are fattening. These cheese fries were heavenly so I know that they had to be fattening.Anything that is this delicious has to be bad for you. It is one of the rules of dining. The better it tastes, the worse it isfor you. These cheese fries were so good that I must have been taking years off of my life while eating them and I honestly didnot care. Bring on the cheese fries and I will gladly die young. I will try to balance things out by eating a healthy maincourse from "Jesse boy Korean fried chicken" but you better believe that will be followed up Read more

The only reason I?m not giving a five star and I almost gave three stars is because the chicken is sometimes way smaller in my... sandwich so I suggest making sure the sandwich has chicken entirely not half the sandwich with a small tender piece. The tastewas good and we enjoyed out meal! Anyways, the food is really crunchy and there is a distinct Korean flavor profile. Business isfriendly but again I?m like wanting to give three stars but I?ll just give four because I want to support the small business. Read more

Hands down the best fried chicken! The bowl is literally everything you can ask for in a meal. It has delicious light salad and... this crispy but juicy chicken on rice. Chefs kiss! Read more
