Unidentified Flying Chicken (UFC) in Jackson Heights, NY - Best Korean Chicken Joint!

We recently tried out Unidentified Flying Chicken (UFC) in Jackson Heights, NY. The menu is mostly...CHICKEN as you would expect from the name. We actually thought the name of this place was weird, but the FOOD was definitely not! We were pleasantly surprised at how great the food was! It’s a small eatery nestled on a busy street, so it can be easily overlooked. The upstairs just have a few tables and just for take-out orders. However, if you do downstairs, it has cozy table settings for full service dinner.

We ordered the large chicken wings (in BBQ mustard – this was a little spicy & soy garlic) – both tasted awesome! There are 4 flavors to choose from, we plan to go back to try the other two. The chicken wings were fried to perfection – no grease dripping off, just light and crunchy. The chicken was perfectly seasoned with the sauces, so each bite was just so yummy! The chicken wings came with two sides, we picked the cold slaw and the radish – both were great.

We also ordered sweet potato fries – this actually really impressed us! The fries were very fresh, not the frozen kind you get at most places. They were peeled, cut, and fried on the spot! I’ve never tasted better sweet potato fries before! A+ for the fries and chicken!

We will be back! Go try it out for yourself! Here is a link to their website (its still under construction, but you can see the menu). http://ufchicken.com/
