Soban Korean Eatery - Providence

I used to eat at Soban in the past, but now I get takeout from here every week. I really enjoy their food and I hope they remain in the area for a long time. I especially love the BBQ Chicken and the secret spicy wings. This time, I tried the cheeseling chicken for the first time and I was pleasantly surprised.

The food at this restaurant is simple, quick, and delicious. The quality is pretty good and the service is efficient. My only suggestion is that they should offer hot stone dishes on their menu.

When Soban opened their bbq chicken franchise, we were all thrilled. Whenever I am in NYC, I always make sure to visit that location. However, I must say that the Providence location surpasses the one in NYC in terms of crispy chicken, flavors, and wing size. The owner really knows how to double fry and season the wings perfectly. Just be prepared for a wait, as it takes at least 25 minutes to prepare for the double fry and season process. I recommend placing your order online if you are in a rush, as the owner is usually the one taking orders and cooking. Expect to wait 30-45 minutes, but trust me, it is worth it. Keep in mind that this is a small, family-owned establishment, so please be patient and understanding.

Honey Garlic boneless fried chicken is SUPREME: the perfect amount of lightweight crispy breading, juicy meat and flavorful sauce. This is a bit of waiting but that’s because everything is made FRESH. I wolfed down everything so fast and forgot to take a picture lol. I am super impressed!! Bonus: they take Alipay and Paypal

Tried their beef bibimbap and soy garlic flavored wings, so good. Flavor and texture was perfect.
