    Rose tteokbokki
    Sammy C.

    I can't believe it's taken me so long to try bb.q chicken! I know it's a chain, but this is some of the best Korean fried chicken I've had. There are many different sauces to choose from, in addition to other dishes like tteokbokki, ramen, fried rice, etc. We tried the rose tteokbokki and it was cooked perfectly. The sauce had a little kick and was the perfect pairing with our chicken. The chicken wings were excellent! The size of the wings were worth the price, the meat was juicy, and the outside was extra crispy and cooked to perfection. Honey garlic is a nice mild flavor and spicy galbi is a smoky spicy sauce that definitely gives galbi vibes. I also have to add that the service was incredible. We were there on a Saturday night, and the wait staff was on their A game. There was always someone checking in on us, and the food came out QUICK! There are a handful of tables, but I would call in advance if you have a big group so they can plan. You can also make a reservation on Yelp. There are a bunch of TV screens around the restaurant which was perfect for watching March Madness! I'll definitely be back to try more wing flavors!

    Soy garlic wings
    Trisha C.

    I have heard good things about this chain and wanted to try it. There is a self-serve kiosk for takeout, and I ordered their small soy garlic wings. What is unique about this place is that you can get a whole chicken here, but I just got their wings. It also comes with a side of radish. Their wings are a bit on the saltier side, but there is a really nice crunch when you bite into them. Their radish was not pickled enough, which would have been very nice, especially when eating the wings. I think overall their prices are a bit on the high side compared to other places, though I would come here again primarily because of the location's convenience. Ambiance is great to hang out with friends and family. I would love to try their other flavors in future visits. Also, best to order ahead of time as it took between 10-15 minutes on a slow day when I ordered it in person.

    Korean fried chicken

    The Korean fried chicken was so good with different flavors. The service was fine. The restaurant was clean and plenty of seats

    One of my go-to comfort spots. A must order for me every time is the honey garlic wings. They are just the perfect mixture of sweet and savory and this location always makes the crispiest wings. The marinated radish also provides the perfect refreshment each wing. Service is also quite attentive- they provide a container for bones and also a pair of gloves per person to help prevent the eating process from getting too messy.

    Rose Pasta

    They have a huge variety of different Korean Fried Chicken flavors, the most I've seen from a restaurant. I recommend ordering their Honey Garlic/soy Garlic Wings, super crispy and crunchy. My friends and I agreed that the best thing to order here is actually the rose pasta, super creamy, rich in flavors and pricing is very affordable. bb.q chicken actually has one of best pasta I've tried in Oregon I would argue it's worth coming here only for the pasta. 4/5 Stars since out of the 3 times I've been here, services are very slow even during an odd hour on a weekday. They also almost never have specific flavors of chicken we wanted. Their fried chickens are also a bit expensive compared to other restaurants.

    1/2 chicken with secret sauce
    Kurt P.

    This place is so much fun. Good beer, fried chicken with great sauces, big screen TV sets all around, what's not to like? Dinner for 5 tonight. I had the 1/2 chicken with secret sauce. The sauce was great, but do watch out for fine bones in the whole chicken entrees. We had a mozzarella stick appetizer which was fine, what can you really do with breaded deep-fried cheese? The youngster had the chicken Alfredo which was OK - the chicken and sauce was good, but was not the creamiest ever. Two orders of the boneless winger and the Gangnam style was the big winner. Service was fine, our beer arrived promptly and our entrees came in a reasonable time. The ambiance is nice with high ceilings, though it was a little chilly in there - bring a jacket. Hope to come back and try some more sauce flavors!!

    Allergy warnings, are they not careful about cross contamination in the kitchen?
    Angela E.

    I guess I got lucky when I ate here without an issue! The allergy list that the restaurant has posted is absolutely insane, it truly makes me wonder how serious they are about cross contamination for common allergens. The chicken itself was fairly good but extremely pricey for what you get. The staff were friendly and had nice suggestions for ordering and the restaurant itself was very modern and sleek.

    Overall, a 3.75/5. The wings were delicious and well flavored! They were bigger than expected, so full on wings, I anticipated like the bite size but it was equally as good. The atmosphere was super cute, spread out and looked even better in the evening. We went for a girls lunch date but would definitely return for a girls night out! The service was good, started off well but sort of declined as time went on. I understand given the influx of people but we did have to ask for water after multiple of us had empty glasses for a while. Overall, a decent experience and I'd be interested in giving more things a try.

    This is the fourth time I've been here and today I was very disappointed. The chicken was soggy and hardly crispy. Which is one of the main selling points of Korean fried chicken. The crispiness. Some of the chicken we ordered hardly had any breading on it at all. Just slabs of saucy chicken. So sad. I brought people from out of state here for a great experience and I was so sad we came here. The place was not busy there was maybe 1 or 2 other tables. It felt like the food was rushed and the quality seriously suffered. The service was not up to par either. It's like we got forgotten about and had to find someone to come help us. Again, not busy... I was really sad to leave this review but I only hope it will cause them to investigate what's going on until he kitchen cause what I was served was not the normal BB.Q!

    Came on a weekday when it wasn't busy. The restaurant had some tables that needed to be bussed. Other than that it was clean. We were seated immediately. The waitress came and brought water. Looked at the menu and decided on what to order. took a good 20 minutes before she came back to take the order. The slushy was too sweet for my taste. The orders came out after another 20 minutes. It was fresh and tasty. It took another 20 minutes after finishing for someone to come check if everything was okay, and to bring out the bill. They weren't understaffed so that wouldn't be the issue. Hopefully the owners have worked with their staff to strengthen their customer service.

    This is my favorite spot for Korean wings in the Portland Metro area! I'll be comparing this place to Chimcking which is just across the street. What I love - the BIGGEST Korean wings I've ever had - really good crunch and comes out HOT - lots of different flavor options - rose ddotboki is creamy and not too spicy, try dipping the wings in this!! - reasonably priced at $1.80-$1.88 per wing depending on if you order S/M/L What can be improved - Soy garlic is almost there, but I prefer a stronger garlic taste. Chimcking does soy garlic better! - A lot of the other flavors are very similar tasting even though there is a variety of flavors. Would be nice if they were better differentiated. - I've really only ever gone on weekdays, but pretty much wait times are around 20 mins or more. Other thoughts This place and Chimcking are my go-to Korean chicken spots. However, I like this place a little better for the size of their wings and the batter crunch quality. Their classic soy garlic is ALMOST as good as Chimcking's soy garlic but everything else keeps me coming back here.

    Rose Tteokbokki
    Priya P.

    Another AHMAZING tteokbokki place, a little sad that you have to pay extra for cheese but its definitely not that big of a deal considering how absolutely flavorful this dish is. I loved the consostency of the sauce and the spice level was perfect. we got this for takeout and the wait time was not long. Also i might have finished the whole thing in one sitting...

    Nina N.

    I was super excited to try this place out for date night as I've been craving some crispy fried chicken and I will tell you that the texture that they get on the chicken wings is something that would be truly difficult to create at home. Whenever I try a new place out, I always wonder if my expectations fall short because I just ended up ordering the wrong thing. We got their secret sauce wings, as well as as their spicy Gangnam Style. But to us, we just felt like the flavors blended together and were a little lackluster, it seems like the chicken should've been marinated in more salt before being coated with the batter. It felt more like a sticky glaze without any real kick to it. We even thought the server just put in the wrong order since he forgot my drink for 20 mins as well. The ambience of the place was nice. The service was alright for a Friday night. Would love to try this place again sometime and maybe other things on the menu.

    I had such a bizarre experience here that I just had to write about it on yelp…read more This Chimcking usually has 2 different BOGO offers on UberEats, each for a 10pc chicken wings. I usually buy both of the BOGO offers, and I've done this a few times in the past, and they've all gone fine, no problems. I get my 4x10pc wing orders without issue. Yesterday I did the same thing - I ordered 2 BOGOs, expecting my usual 40 wings. But when I walked into pick it up, the Asian lady at the counter (I think she's the owner, maybe?) chastised me and told me to limit myself to just 1 BOGO order in the future. Huh? I only got 2 BOGOs, and it's not like the price was so cheap that the restaurant was losing money or something. And besides, I've ordered these 2 BOGOs numerous times in the past. That's when I saw that the restaurant was treating any SINGLE 10pc order as a BOGO. So when I checked out with my 4 10pc orders, the restaurant took that to mean 4 BOGO orders, or in other words, EIGHT 10pc orders. No wonder the lady was upset. Of course, it's not my error, as the restaurant was interpreting the order incorrectly. I even tried my best to explain this to the lady, as well as explain that I've ordered these BOGOs multiple times in the past (and this same lady was at the desk when I picked them up!!), and it's never been an issue. Still, the lady kept insisting she was correct, and that 1 10pc order constituted a BOGO in itself, which makes absolutely zero sense, and not how literally any other merchant I've ever bought from on UberEats has done their BOGO promotions, which I also told her. Anyway, in the future, I'll still continue to order as many BOGOs as I want, I'll just probably order delivery so I don't have to deal with this nonsense. EDIT: I see the owner has responded to my review. I can certainly see how someone exploiting multiple BOGOs to order 100+ wings at a time would be harmful to the company and completely against the spirit of the promotion. But I did nothing like that. Two different BOGOs were being offered, and I simply purchased 1 of each. I've done this multiple times both at this restaurant and at numerous other restaurants that offer different BOGOs, and this was literally the first time that any restaurant worker has mentioned a word about it. The biggest issue is that the Chimcking workers are apparently a bit undertrained when it comes to processing ubereats BOGO promotions, which is why I received 80 wings instead of the 40 I was supposed to get.

    I've gone here a couple times and really feel like the chicken is so crispy and flavorful. This…read moretime we got the whole chicken and eater beware of the bones, but there was a lot of delicious meat and it was a good eat!

I think their appetizers are good and I think I'll just stick to these even though the corn dog is 75% cheese, 25% dog. I was also disappointed that japchae is not ontheir menu.
