The growing Journal Square area of Jersey City will soon be home to an outpost of Don Chicken, a fast casual restaurant that has significantly expanded throughout the United States over the last four years.<\/p>\n

Set to take over the former Summit News space at 514 Summit Avenue, the Seoul-based restaurant bills themselves as the \u201cboss\u201d of Korean fried chicken. The company opened<\/a> their first U.S. outpost in San Diego back in 2022 and has since expanded to 15 locations in America in New York, New Jersey, Maryland, and Texas.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Their New Jersey presence has been particularly big, with existing restaurants in Fort Lee, Palisades Park, Ridgewood, River Edge, and Closter. The eatery is known for their crispy double-fried chicken and signature sauces, which include varieties like soy garlic, sweet and spicy, hot spicy, and green onion.<\/p>\n

Other notable items on the menu at Don Chicken include their Ppurings Chicken, which is sprinkled with chili powdered cheese. Sides at the restaurant include a ddokbokki, or a rice cake in Korean spicy sauce, tteokbokki, fries, and cheese sticks.<\/p>\n

The Jersey City location of Don Chicken has not announced an opening date just yet, but they are currently hiring for kitchen and front counter positions, according to a sign posted on the Summit Avenue storefront.<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Don Chicken will be opening their latest New Jersey restaurant in Summit Avenue in Jersey City.
