Don Chicken of Cranford is officially open for business! In the short time that the Korean fried chicken restaurant has been open, customers have already been raving about it! Don Chicken serves up 8 varieties of chicken and customers can choose from wings (their signature item), boneless, and drumsticks. Owner Will, whose brother in law owns a Don Chicken in Ridgewood, says that the Soy Garlic and Sweet and Spicy varieties are most popular. If you’re a heat lover, he recommends Spicy Soy Garlic and Hot Spicy. Sides include Ddukbokki (spicy rice cake that’s a traditional Korean street food), dumplings, Gimmari (glass noodles wrapped with seaweed), and more. “A great combo order is our coleslaw with fried chicken,” said Will.

But I love being a restaurant owner. We’ve received such good feedback and everyone has been so welcoming. I’m thrilled to join the Downtown Cranford community.”
