“ The food here is so fresh and very good. The crisp on the chicken is like no other. I love the honey garlic flavor. The service here as really good the waiter was very nice. They had a mildly upbeat music playing while the televisions are going with different things playing which was kind of nice. My kids enjoyed it and so did I. ”
“ My fav Korean fried chicken!! These are the things I've tried over multiple visits: - golden fried chicken - soy garlic fried chicken - honey garlic fried chicken - rose deokbokki - kimchi fried rice - Caribbean spice rice bowl - pickled radish My faves are the fried chicken (all the flavors ive had are sooo good! The golden is a plain flavor but still delicious), the rose deokbokk, and the kimchi fried rice. Everything I've had has been delicious though so you probably can't go wrong. I haven't tried any of the bulgogi or beef options since this place is known for their chicken, but I might someday. An 8 piece wings is a lot of food for one person - especially with some kimchi fried rice shared amongst friends. Hit this place up if you're in the area!! I'm fortunate to live close by, so it's definitely one of my go-tos. ”
“ I was pumped to see a bb.q Chicken when I was out and about the other day - you can't go wrong with some Korean fried chicken! I went with my go-to fave, the soy garlic wings, and they were delicious as always, even after my 30 min commute home in the cold/snow. I was feeling particularly hungry and got their kimchi fried chicken but I wasn't a fan - the rice was a bit undercooked and just left me wishing I'd picked up more wings instead. ”
“ This Korean fried chicken spot is a solid cheat-day pick! I ordered the half-and-half whole chicken (original and hot spicy). They cut the breast into wing-sized pieces, which I didn't mind. The original was my favorite--crispy, juicy, and perfectly cooked. The hot spicy had good flavor but didn't win me over as much. The cheese ddeok-bokki was indulgent and packed with salty, sweet, spicy, cheesy goodness--definitely a comfort food splurge. I didn't care too much for the side radish but its radish. A whole chicken easily feeds 2-4 people. I was stuffed after just three pieces and some ddeok-bokki. ”
“ I've ordered takeout here a couple times when I got marooned in Ballston and was feeling KFC (Korean Fried Chicken) and bb.q definitely hits the spot. The portal is not-Doordash but otherwise it was super easy to schedule pickup. Chicken-wise it's pretty solid - the breading here is crispy and light without being overly oily, and they have plenty of sauce options. Just so I remember later, Gangnam style sounds great on paper but had zero spice as a "spicy sauce", felt mostly sugary. Shoutout to the poutine tho - great drunk food but I don't know why the picture has tater tots when it's just bland frozen fries. It's not my favorite chicken but in terms of value it's one of my better options closer to DC. ”
“ I really like this location of bb.q Chicken. I've been to a few other locations, but this one is consistently good, and the quality is always reliable. I usually get the Spicy Original Wings, which have a slight kick, and the Honey Garlic Boneless Wings--both are delicious, and I find myself craving them often. The Classic and Rose Tteokbokki are also tasty. Plus, when I order through Uber or DoorDash, the delivery is relatively quick. ”
“ So fresh, piping hot, crispy and super saucy. Wait time after ordering was about 15 min but you can tell from the chicken it was MTO. I got the whole chicken that includes wing and leg but they are not full sized pieces of chicken like from a KFC bucket. I wish they were; They are more wing sized. Some pieces were just batter so I don't think the order was fulfilled to its highest potential. But the pieces that did have meat were great. Plenty of seating inside and full bar ”
“ This establishment is easy for me to walk to, I love stopping by to get a midnight snack or quick dinner. My go to is the rose tteokbokki with pickled radish. I think my only gripe is that the pickled radish doesn't come with any dishes, especially the fried chicken, it's an add on side. ”
“ We got several types of chicken and they were all really good! I especially liked the hot spicy, honey garlic, and soy garlic flavors. Service was great and fast. Vibes were very casual-- good to come with friends for some chimaek (chicken + beer) during the week! ”
