I recently visited this Chi Chicken restaurant, and it was a delightful experience. Firstly, the restaurant's ambiance is very comfortable, with a fresh and natural decor that makes you feel relaxed. The waitstaff were very friendly and provided excellent service. The highlight of the meal was definitely the coconut chicken. The chicken was tender and juicy, rich without being too heavy. The soup, made with fresh coconut, had a natural sweetness that perfectly complemented the chicken. The side dishes were also abundant, with a variety of fresh vegetables that were both healthy and delicious. Additionally, the restaurant offers a wide variety of dishes, not just the classic coconut chicken. Huajiao flavor is also highly recommended. The prices are very reasonable, offering great value for money. Overall, this is a highly recommended Chi Chicken restaurant. Whether for a family dinner or a gathering with friends, it's an excellent choice. I will definitely visit again!

Amazing broth and food, definitely would come back! The place is a bit unconventional. They have set combos that include the broth type and a bunch of ingredients. We got the chicken combo and it also came with a whole plate of chicken. We typically don’t eat chicken at hot pot but between all the other options this was the best choice. Plenty of a la carte options to pick more items and good sauce station too. Service was attentive and great, and the place is big enough where it doesn’t feel crowded. Only downside is I wish they had more combos or other smaller-sized options to choose from. We had four people and our one combo was still a lot. But given the broth is truly outstanding - more than most other hot pot places - I’ll let this one slide! Highly recommend giving this place a try!

Really yummy food and good service. The meat and veggies were super fresh as well. The coconut broth was new for me but it was good! I liked the sides/sauces too.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Chi Chicken, and it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was cozy and inviting, perfect for a relaxed meal with friends or family. The staff jerry and xi were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure our needs were met without being intrusive. The highlight, of course, was the food. We ordered a variety of dishes, and each one was more delicious than the last. The chicken was perfectly cooked just in 3 minutes – tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. Overall, Chi Chicken exceeded all my expectations.Will definitely come back.
