PONKO Chicken

I didn’t like it

The chicken is Teriyaki flavored and fried. It's a bit too salty for me. The batter is crispy and the meat inside juicy. Beware that the potato fries are beer battered FYI.

Ponko's Chicken in Alpharetta has proven to be an absolute hit-or-miss, and unfortunately, this visit was a major miss. While I've had genuinely great experiences here, the inconsistency is a real problem. This latest order was downright disgusting. The sheer amount of grease in my to-go container was inexcusable. There was literally enough oil pooled at the bottom that I could have re-fried the chicken myself! It makes me wonder if the chicken was even drained properly after frying, or if someone just poured a half-cup of oil over it before boxing it up. This level of sloppiness is unacceptable.

Very yummy food, I love that they had vegetarian options as well. Also got to try Ramune drink. There is a bar inside as well, will have to go next time to try that

Clean and nice atmosphere to taste chicken meals.I enjoyed their chicken plate with spicy sauce, chicken sandwich and salad. I recommend Japanese drinks too.

We had a catered lunch here at SpecialT for our company. Lori Sincere the catering manager was wonderful. Her communication was outstanding and the service was great . She was early and helped me set everything up and make sure I knew what everything was. She brought everything we needed to make sure this group lunch for 50 people was super successful. The food was gone..... which is a good sign! We will absolutely be using her services in the future. Her last name describes her very well....She is very sincere and loves what she does!
