Hands down the BEST Korean Fried Chicken joint in town. If you want to have proper authentic KFC, visit Buza and try their Sweet Onion Chicken and Smoke Soy Chicken. I promise you won't be disappointed. Delicious, cheap and a huge portion - what more do you expect? Whenever I crave Korean Fried Chicken, this is my go to place
Been here a twice and both times it was great! Prices are pretty good and very tasty food. Recommend the boneless chicken (smoked soy), kimchi jigae and kimchi pancake! Even if you don’t like kimchi as much it is yummy. The tteokbokki is a very interesting dish: mixed with noodles, sausages, fish cake and an egg! Level 1 is already quite spicy. Overall a great place, good for groups of 4 bc of the booths.

The staff are very accomodating and kind. The food is so delicious and the different flavours of the food 🤩.
Buza said they only took bookings for groups of 4+, but when we rocked up as 2 we couldn't walk in. It doesn't seem to be beneficial to go in as less than 4... so we chose to get takeaway.
Ordered:
🍚 Kimchi fried rice ($15.00)
🥘 Spicy seafood soup (medium) ($33.00)
🍗 Half soy smoked chicken ($18.00)
🌽 Corn cheese ($12.00)
Review:
This was an unreal amount of food for 2. Yet we tried our best!
The seafood soup was sweet but the day 2 reheating only made things sweeter. The broth is genuinely delicious with lots of flavour. Highly recommend!
There's only so much they could do for presentation and taste on takeaway food, but it wasn't too bad.
When we went inside to order, the atmosphere was very cosy, pleasant and friendly. It seems like a great place to hang with friends to catch up and be rowdy.
Bring cash because there a credit surcharge!
Love this place! The roast chicken with abit of spice - so yum!
they seriously need more staffs.
I came during the dinner rush and have to wait about 15 mins to be served
This is my go to fried chicken place. I really enjoy the normal fried chicken. It’s nice and crunchy !
Back again cause it’s always packed and always open and always yummy ! This is our go-to late night chicken place!
This place is always crowded and a good place for get Fried chicken and beer.
One of my favourite Korean Fried Chicken with bone ( I have 2 favourite KFC) in Melbourne
Never disappointed with Friend Chicken, it’s always crispy, moist and well coated as well.
Also love their Tteok-bokki which we always order the most spicy and the staff advise us that Tteok-bokki is already spicy.
Well.. we love spicy food and we find the Tteok-Bokki is sweet spicy but it’s tasty.
Came here after midnight and it was still quite crowded. The place was quite spacious and it's just full on drinking vibe with people chatting and laughing. Staffs were friendly though our food did take a while.
The original fried chicken (boneless) was quite nice, there were some breast and thigh parts, with the latter being better as the breast was bit dry. We like the seasoning and the portion was quite good for half size, thigh was juicy and meaty but we just find the coating a bit too much.
We also had some extra sweet chili sauce which was quite nice, I do love the picked radish and slaw though the sauce can be bit much and they're refillable!
Also got the vanilla ice cream which was surprisingly good lol, came with some frozen berries and choco wafers.
Overall a pretty good place for chicken or just some late night booze and snacks

Fantastic Korean fried chicken shop.
Spicy, hot boneless chicken is a perfect level of spice.
We ordered a whole chicken portion, which is perfect for 2 people.
The seaweed roles were delicious.
I highly recommend here as a great Korean fried chicken shop, or KFC.
Service was okay, but they were pretty busy. Price was reasonable.
Some might say shop looks a bit rough, but I'm prepared to tolerate it considering the quality of food.
We will be back.

An overall amazing experience, with fairly quick service. We had Fried chicken with the smoked soy and sweet and spicy sauce, Corn cheese, Kimchi fried rice and Pork soup. The fried rice was a bit underwhelming but everything else was really delicious!
Perfect Fried chicken! All flavor are worth a try. However the rest on the menu are at just at average level. (pancake not good)I would definitely come for just Fried chicken and some beer.
Had a dinner with few mates here, seated around the back corner, which is perfect spot to bounce some banters with minimal foot traffic interruption.
Had the snowy fried chicken soy garlic fried chicken, seafood pancake and army stew. Personally i think their soy garlic fried chicken is FTW, probably one of the bests in Melbourne
Finally go to try Buza after hearing all about it and it did not disappoint! They’ve definitely got some of Melbourne’s best Korean fried chicken!
We got their whole fried chicken (with bone) with half original and half smoked soy flavour. The fried chicken here is so delicious - the coating is super crispy and not too thick, the chicken is juicy and tender, and the smoked soy sauce is to die for!
We also tried the hot pot tteokbokki which came in a huge portion. It’s cooked at the table and stays bubbling hot, so it’s perfect for a cold day. Beware of the spice though - if you can’t take spicy then I suggest you go the lowest option as they definitely take their spice level very seriously!
First time went here and the food 🍗 was amazing. So far it's the best korean🇰🇷fried chicken for me. Chicken tastes fresh, crunchy and so yummy! Highly recommended for those who like boneless fried chicken. Literally reminds me of the one I had while in korea. Great job! 🚩🚩🚩
