Kokio Korean Fried Chicken in Albuquerque began in 2023 as a result of a diagnosis. The owner, Minsoon Kim, shared his story with us.

"Kokio began when my wife was facing a serious health battle with cancer. Our whole family came together and started the restaurant out of a shared desire to support her through her fight in every way we could. Pouring ourselves into this work became our way of facing it together as a family, and that spirit is in everything we serve."

Today, Kokio is one of the most popular places to get Korean fried chicken in the state of New Mexico. The food provided is known to be delectable, delicious and worth a repeat visit. Check it out sometime soon! ✨
