Nestled in the vibrant heart of Flushing, NY, Mad for Chicken Flushing offers a delectable fusion of Korean and American flavors, brilliantly celebrating the beloved staple: chicken wings. This gastropub-style restaurant excels in transforming classic comfort food into an exciting culinary journey that satisfies cravings and excites the palate.

From the moment you enter, the lively and inviting atmosphere amps up the anticipation for a delicious meal. The bustling space buzzes with energy, yet the attentive and warm staff ensure you feel right at home, delivering prompt service without ever rushing you. Whether you're here for a casual bite or a lively night out with friends, Mad for Chicken strikes the perfect balance between relaxed dining and vibrant social vibes.

The menu is a treasure trove for chicken aficionados and adventurous eaters alike. Signature traditional wings come in a mouthwatering variety of sauces—from the smoky depth of Golden BBQ and Hickory BBQ to the tantalizing heat of Kicking Bourbon, Buffalo, and Mango Habanero. Each wing is perfectly crispy on the outside with juicy tenderness inside, making every bite a harmonious dance of textures and flavors.

But the delight doesn't stop at wings. The Kimchi Fries, a crowd favorite, are topped with layers of spicy, tangy kimchi and drizzled with spicy mayo, creating a bold, savory bite brimming with Korean-inspired zest. For something heartier, the Bulgogi over Rice showcases tender marinated beef paired with steaming rice—a comforting yet sophisticated dish that pays homage to traditional Korean flavors. The Mozzarella Kimchi Fried Rice stands out as an irresistibly rich and cheesy twist on a classic, while the Parmesan Truffle Fries elevate the humble fry with aromatic truffle oil, garlic, and parmesan, perfectly paired with a side of spicy mayo.

Starters such as the crispy fried calamari and the addictive popcorn chicken tease the appetite with savory crunches and flavors that hint at things to come. For those seeking variety, the Fried Dumplings or Korean-style Scallion Chicken serve as delightful complements to the main courses, bursting with authenticity and finesse.

Families are well catered to here, with a thoughtful kids’ menu featuring favorites like the crispy Chicken Bowl Rice, Bulgogi Bowl Rice, and classic Mac & Cheese—all served with a juice box, making it a convenient and enjoyable experience for younger diners.

What truly distinguishes Mad for Chicken Flushing is the palpable enthusiasm among both staff and guests. As one happy patron shared, the staff "made a conscious effort to keep up and check in with everyone" amid a packed Saturday night, enhancing the convivial atmosphere with genuine hospitality. Another diner raved about the crispy chicken bowl and quick service, highlighting the generous portions that promise excellent value. The exciting AYCE (all-you-can-eat) option has also garnered praise, with customers considering the experience well worth the premium pricing, allowing you to indulge extensively in your favorites from wings to bulgogi.

    Ever since I saw the AYCE flyer, I have been wanting to come here. Finally, I had the chance to come with my friends. We came on a Saturday night, which means we have to pay $45.99/person rather than $29.99/person. While this is much more expensive, I'll still say it was worth it. Depending on your party size, that is the maximum amount you can order per section. This means a party of four can order up to four items in each section. Do not worry, you can always order a second or third or more rounds! Just do not order too much as they will charge you food waste charges. My suggestion: do not order the drumsticks unless you are hungry! Personally, I prefer drumsticks over wings. When I ordered the drumsticks, though, I didn't expect them to be massive. It is still very delicious and I would recommend you to try it, but, as I mentioned, it is quite large! For the seafood boil, the Garlic Butter sauce was tasty. However, my all-time favorite has to be the Lemon Pepper sauce. The sweet and tangy flavor definitely accentuates the seafood, sausages, eggs, and vegetables. All-in-all, come in with an empty stomach and prepare to feast on flavorful chickens and seafood boil.

    Came here a while back, but the food was amazing we came to try the Wings we got the spicy soy and soy garlic flavor wings and both were really good and was super crispy and packed with flavor. Also tried the kimchi fries and the kimchi fried rice which both I never had before was both good too especially the fried rice. Good vibe and good place to hang out with your friends and family!!

    I had been meaning to visit Mad for Chicken for the longest time, and I finally made it out to their Flushing location and let me tell you, it was absolutely worth the wait. While their à la carte menu looked solid, I couldn’t resist diving into the All-You-Can-Eat option. It was the right call ,we went all out. We kicked things off with a lineup of appetizers. The avocado salad was fresh and creamy, with a good balance between richness and crisp texture. The crabmeat salad was chilled and subtly sweet, light enough to ease into the heavier dishes ahead. The edamame, though simple, came out with just a touch too much salt ,not overwhelming, but enough to notice after a few handfuls. The tteokbokki which is a Korean rice cakes were coated in a classic gochujang-based sauce, spicy and slightly sweet, with that satisfying chew you expect. The fried dumplings, while beautifully crisp and golden on the outside, fell a little flat flavor-wise. The filling seemed sparse ,mostly just glass noodles and lacked that savory punch. I couldn’t help but think a mix of meat and veggies would have brought more depth and dimension to each bite. Then came the main event the fried chicken, served in all the right forms. I stuck with wings and drumsticks, and they nailed it. The skin was incredibly crisp, the meat tender and juicy. But what really stood out was the sauces Spicy Soy Garlic hit a great balance between salty, garlicky, and spicy. Serrano Chili was sharp and green, with a lingering heat that sneaks up on you. Mango Habanero was sweet at first, then fiery, with a fruity brightness that kept you reaching for more. Kickin Bourbon had this deep, smoky sweetness with a smooth, subtle burn. And Sweet & Spicy was sticky, bold, and dangerously addictive. Every flavor had its own personality and brought something different to the table they weren’t just spicy or sweet, they were layered. But the highlight? The seafood boil. We ordered it not once, but twice. The first round was bathed in a spicy garlic butter sauce rich, aromatic, and packed with flavor. It came loaded with snow crab legs, shrimp (head off), black mussels, green mussels, corn, potatoes, and hard-boiled eggs. Everything was cooked just right the shrimp were plump, the crab legs tender, and the mussels fresh. As an Asian, I couldn’t pass up pairing it with rice to soak up all that buttery sauce, and I also added a bulgogi over rice bowl on the side. The bulgogi had that classic sweetness, but this version leaned a bit too sweet not the usual balanced savory-sweet flavor I’m used to. It needed a sharper, more distinct note maybe a hint of soy or sesame to cut through and elevate it. Round two of the boil brought a totally different flavor profile. We went for the spicy lemon pepper sauce, and it was incredible. Bright citrus met warm heat, and together they made the seafood shine. This version came with baby clams, more shrimp, mussels, potatoes, kielbasa sausage, and eggs. The sausage soaked up the sauce beautifully, and every element had a bold, zesty edge that made it completely different from the first round. It felt like we were experiencing two entirely different dishes both excellent in their own way. To wrap it all up, we ordered the molten chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream. A classic pairing, but done right the cake was warm and gooey in the center, not overly sweet, and paired perfectly with the cold, creamy vanilla ice cream. It was indulgent without being overwhelming a smooth finish to a feast. Even with a few minor hiccups, the meal was overwhelmingly satisfying. The service was quick and friendly, and despite how much food we ordered, everything came out hot, fresh, and beautifully plated. The space had a casual vibe, but the food felt like it belonged somewhere more elevated. Overall a good experience and will be back.
