The interior of CHIMEK
Chimek, nestled in the vibrant area of Porto Arabia Drive, specifically at 12 La Croisette, brings a taste of Korean cuisine to Doha. Known primarily for its Korean fried chicken, this restaurant offers various service options, including delivery, takeaway, and dine-in. Chimek is relatively under-the-radar when it comes to restaurant directories, with limited online presence beyond a minimal profile on Google.

The restaurant features a comfortable ambiance with wheelchair accessibility throughout, including the entrance, seating, and restrooms. For those with a taste for refreshment, Chimek serves alcohol and beer, offers halal food options, and hosts happy-hour drinks in its private dining room. Families are welcome with facilities that are good for kids and high chairs available. Notably, dogs are allowed in the outside seating area.

Visitors have had mixed experiences, ranging from accolades for the atmosphere and friendly staff to criticisms over service mishaps and incidents of alleged discrimination. Parking is convenient, with a free multi-storey car park and additional parking available nearby. However, it’s worth noting that the restaurant generally lacks updated owner-provided information, which potential patrons might consider when planning their visit.

A great spot for enjoying Korean cuisine, especially if you’re a fan of chicken. The menu offers a wide variety of chicken dishes, making it difficult to choose just one. The restaurant is equipped with large screens, making it a good place to watch sports while dining. Ms. Diana provided attentive and friendly service and was happy to recommend some of the restaurant’s most popular chicken dishes. It’s not often that you find a place serving rooibos tea, but here it was presented in a traditional Arabic dallah, which added a unique and memorable touch to the experience. A creative idea that blends different cultures beautifully. Price per person: QAR 50–100 Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 5

nice place and ambiance. our server was Diana. lovely girl and always smiling. She knows how to take care of customers compared to the other male staff who were there when we went today. We ordered original fried chicken with bone and boneless green onion chicken. original was okay. quite bland to my liking but they have salt that goes with it so you can adjust up to your taste. green onion chicken was tasty and juicy despit it being boneless. it was definitely on the pricey end. 65 and 80 qr respectively but I guess because of the location. great to be able to have it with alcohoic drinks as well. nice location and chill ambiance.
