Toby Chicken - North Chesterfield

Really great Korean fried chicken place. Really happy to have this in rva and hope to be back to support it. Miles ahead of the Bon Chon in Midlothian, which i dont think is very good.

Yesterday we tried Tobi Chicken for the first time. We were very excited to try Korean fried chicken other than Bonchon which has been our go-to restaurant. The restaurant is small, but so clean and beautifully decorated. There is a bar with a tv and the place was decorated with a bunch of what seems to be hand painted tiles with different drawings, cartoons, and messages. Each table had a cute little chicken as a napkin dispenser and the best smelling hand sanitizer. The lady that helped us was super nice and attentive. She gave us a side of pickled radishes. We ordered soy garlic chicken and the sweet chicken with French fries and onion rings as side dishes. The onion rings were good. I wish it came with a dipping sauce. The fries were okay, they are like the frozen French fries that you can fry at home. The chicken took significantly longer to cook (as expected) than the side dishes so it would had been nice to get all of the food at the same time instead of getting the sides first and have them get somewhat cold by the time we got the chicken. The fried chicken was good. We enjoyed it. However, I think it was slightly saltier than what I like. The chicken was cut in smaller pieces which doesn't bother me at all, but it bothered my husband because he likes to know which pieces he's eating before he takes a bite. I can't say that I necessarily like the chicken better than Bonchon, but you can't beat the ambiance and the kindness of the lady that works there. It gave me the vibe of a family owned restaurant and I rather support a family trying to make it with good food versus a big corporation. I will be back to try all of their different options of fried chicken and bring my kids along. I'm sure they will love it.

Food is always great, best place to get chicken. Staff is always nice and helpful, the interior is well decorated as well.

Delicious chicken (but we also ordered a beef dish). As spicy as you wish, or ask them to make it milder. Steamed dumplings also very good. Enjoyable. Friendly staff. Will definitely come again.

Absolutely delicious food, great service and cozy atmosphere. Will definitely go back and tell friends to eat here as well
