A spot I am now beholden to. Every time I’m in LA a stop at GolTong is a must. Simply the best. The sauce feels fresh and fruity and the garlic chicken is amamzinh in their yellow sauce. Perfection ??

I had the chicken from this place in 2020 and it was good. I went there yesterday and the quality is the same if not better.

Owner was very nice and recommended a dish to us, food was amazing! The chicken with fruits really work together. I was surprised how flavorful the chicken was and how tasty the sauces were. Highly recommend coming here! I’ll definitely be back.
Who knew fruit could pair so well with fried chicken? At Gol Tong Chicken, Kil Chae Jeong offers the quirkiest fried chicken in Koreatown. An erstwhile South Korean film director and Seoul-based fried chicken shop operator, Jeong is the shop?s only employee. His signature bushy eyebrows and mustachioed visage can be seen all over the screen-filled strip mall restaurant, which blasts a combination of K-pop and Korean TV shows. Dine-in customers can slip on disposable gloves to chow down on Jeong?s saucy fried chicken, which comes in original, soy garlic and sweet chili. Each made-to-order plate comes topped with sesame seeds and a rainbow of fruits like pineapple, avocado, blueberries and strawberries.
Note: Takeout orders are only taken over the phone or in person.
