About Chicken V West Ryde

Tucked away along Walkley Pathway, this West Ryde joint dishes out crunch-heavy Korean fried chicken with serious seasoning. Settle in beneath walls lined with superheroes and quirky Gundam figures—it is casual, dimly lit, and built for sharing.

Friends cluster around chilled Somak towers, washing down rich bowls of slow-simmered pork neck bone stew.

  • Crispy Korean Fried Chicken: Coated in distinct seasonings from sweet soy to numbing mala, served piping hot with crackling skin and tender meat.
  • Somak Towers & Group Plates: Tables frequently share towering beer-and-soju dispensers alongside hearty kimchi pancakes and bubbling hot stews.

    the kimchi stew is the best I've had in Sydney and that's not an exaggeration. It's a thicker soup, with a sweet chilli flavour that you absolutely will finish.
