The beloved eatery, known for its crispy fried chicken and diverse menu, is moving to 6301 W Parmer Ln, Suite 502, following its successful debut in 2018 at the H-Mart food court.
Founder Young Noh confirmed the exciting news earlier today, stating, “We have been doing great. Charlie, my partner, and I are trying to expand our concept.” The new brick-and-mortar restaurant will build upon the popularity of the original location at 5312 Airport Blvd, which has become a go-to spot for Korean cuisine lovers.
Donkey Mo’s has garnered a loyal following with its signature fried chicken served with a variety of mouthwatering sauces, including Sweet and Spicy, Soy Garlic, and Holy Donkey.

Noh revealed that the new location will maintain the beloved menu but with some exciting updates. “The menu is going to be the same, but updated a little bit,” he said. Additionally, the new restaurant will include a bar, introducing a late-night menu with bar snacks, enhancing the dining experience for patrons.
In a bid to keep things fresh, Noh mentioned that new sauces are also in the works, hinting at possibilities like a honey mustard sauce and another Korean-style sauce.
