Per this Austin Eater article: [Austin Korean Fried Chicken Spot Is Returning With A New Restaurant](https://austin.eater.com/2023/2/23/23601570/donkey-mos-austin-opening-restaurant-korean-north-loop)
I’m super excited about this, I was so sad when the Lakeline location closed. I’ve given Don Chicken, which replaced Donkey Mo’s when it left H-Mart, 3 different chances and it was consistently awful. And I love bb.q chicken but it’s a little too expensive for me to eat there as often as I’d like to (although I’m left wondering how much the Donkey Mo’s prices will increase since the last time I ate there, as both locations have been closed since 2021)
This new location will also offer an expanded menu, new sauces, and draft beer.
What do you guys think of this news? Are there better places to get KFC around here?

Donkey Mo’s had some good wings. Nice to see it returning.
> I’ve given Don Chicken, which replaced Donkey Mo’s when it left H-Mart, 3 different chances and it was consistently awful.
Agreed, glad I’m not the only person who felt this way. Consistently over cooked chicken, boring sauces, stale fries.
Don Chicken does not compare. And B.bq is pricey.
Donkey Mo’s is legit, I think it’s better than bb.q chicken at least for wings
Donkey mos was always lukewarm when I got it from Lakeline. It was always just OK. I like hi wings
I was always disappointed by donkey mos because the price was so outrageous and I didn’t like the fries if I remember
Donkey mo’s was mediocre. BBQ, hi wings, and Seoulju are so much better.
sounds exciting
hope the return doesn’t disappoint you or change prices to match the year 2023
My stomach says yes but my heart says no can do. Fried bad! Fried bad!
I’m excited. I loved Donkey Mo’s chicken.
I also like BB.Q, but it’ll be great to have this option available again.
BBQ chicken by 99 Ranch is awesome.
