    Worth trying! Had lunch here and was very happy with the taste and service probited. Good ambiance for lunch family friendly. Service is quick and prices are very reasonable. If you are in the area give it a try and enjoy every bite! Cheers and Buon Appetito!

    Boneless wings with secret sauce
    Johnnie C.

    On the recommendation of a co-worker I visited this place for lunch. While not far from downtown Cincinnati office, I hadn't noticed it before. I over ordered because I couldn't make up my mind (so I have supper too). The aroma and visual were excellent and the flavor matched. Service was very attentive. I'll be back again to experiment with the menus options!

    Spicy Original Wings

    Love bb.q franchise HATE this location. Ordered pickup for lunch and I was about 3 flats in before I noticed pink in my meat close to the bone. It dried down to a clear red since I set it aside. It's a chicken restaurant that served me undercooked chicken. I hope I don't get sick. Also the sweet potato fries were all either too thin or too short. It's like I got a bag full of the ends of the fries.

    This is based off a pickup order. I placed an order online for 8 boneless spicy wings and cheesling fries. I wish the cheesling fries had a description. I was going off the picture. With that being said these ended up being straight cut fries with a sauce drizzle and lots of powdery cheese. Super tasty. $8.95 seemed appropriate for the portion although I work a few blocks away and wouldn't get them again unless I was splitting them with someone. I'm usually a bone-in wing person vs boneless but since it was a work lunch I didn't want to deal with using my hands. The boneless Nuggets were very crispy. The spicy sauce was good but I wanted a tiny bit more. I might try the Mala ones next time. Also it was disappointing that the picture online showed the boneless wings completely coated with sauce but when I got them the sauce was just drizzled on. I would have appreciated more sauce. A big wishlist though was a smaller portion. The smallest amount you can get it 8 pc which I think is $14. I'd love an option of wings and fries - maybe 4 PC with fries for $12ish? My meal was $22.95 and it's too much food for me to make this a go to lunch spot. With that being said I think it's be a good carryout dinner spot but I know that can be hard downtown. If I were bringing dinner home after work I could see myself picking up a to go dinner here.

    Hot spicy. Nice kick.

    Decent. Pros: Chicken is really good - crisp and flavorful - I had hot spicy and it had a good kick Nice location - high ceilings, decent ambiance Cons: Soda was flat Fries were mediocre at best, especially for $6 Long wait time - about 25-30 at a weekday lunch Expensive (check prices in advance) I would consider returning if they can decrease their wait times and up the service a bit. And I would only order chicken.

    Been wanting to try this new fried chicken place downtown Cincinnati on 4th street and it did not disappoint. Came in on a Friday for lunch and the space was clean and staff were so friendly and patient. Ordered the half original crispy and half and spicy original wings with a side of fries. Love the crunchiness of the wings. I prefer the spicy wings because it has just the right amount of heat. The food took a little bit but that's how you know it's made to order and that they don't make the chicken wings in bulk sitting in the back under a heat lamp. Highly recommend!

    Honey Garlic Wings (I requested all flats)

    bb.q, a super cool concept with the appeal of a korean restaurant and feel of a modern sports bar. The staff were amazing - though obviously busy with delivery and takeout orders, they were attentive and accommodating. Denise and Markeith both helped me last night and were incredibly energetic, informative, and proactive. I loooved the honey garlic wings. They were absolutely delicious! I am a garlic fanatic, and appreciated the authentic garlic flavor. They came out hot, crispy, and juicy - everything I crave of korean style fried chicken. I also enjoyed the cheesling fries. The flavor of the cheese dusting is subtly sweet, and nicely compliments the secret sauce. I picked up on a hint of cinnamon that nicely plays well with the cheese dusting. It's good alone, but I recommend it with ranch. Lastly, the rose ddeok-bokki. I ordered it after seeing another customer having some when I came in. It looked so good that I asked her what it was, and she raved about it. For me, it was a bit spicy. It's described as a fish and rice cake, but seemed more like a dense noodle in texture. It has a rebound to it that makes it chewier. It's for sure worth trying, especially if wanting something new or authentic. Pro Tip: bb.q is a no brainer for a weekend dinner run, especially for large parties. I was surprised to see such a cool spot in OTR with availability. As I dined, a large group came in and was quickly seated and served pitchers of beer. Shortly after, they're enjoying wings and watching the game. #winning I'll definitely be back and would recommend.

    I'm giving this four stars and possibly being a bit generous because the food is outstanding. The wing sauces are unique and the chicken itself tastes good. The sides are solid as well. It's pricy (think $15+ per person for lunch), but I don't mind if the quality stays high. The big issue here is service and timing. While the servers are extremely friendly, there is no indication that table service is available, and the "to-go line" frequently takes several minutes per person to move through. We went around 11:30 on a Friday and waited probably 20 minutes in line and another 60-75 minutes for our food. They were out of several items on the menu, and the fountain for drinks doesn't work, so they only have cans. There also does not appear to be any way to order ahead via phone or online, as multiple phone calls went unanswered. I'm hoping most of the critiques here are kinks that can be worked out in the process, because the food is worth it. But I would probably give it some time.

    New Korean BBQ spot in downtown Cincinnati. Their fried chicken is amazing. The crispiness and spice levels are near perfect. The menu has a lot of choices. First you choose your chicken, choices are whole or half chicken, boneless or traditional wings. Then comes the fun part choosing your sauces. They have over 13 sauces to choose from at differing heat levels and flavorings. Our chicken came out hot and tasty and there were certainly good portion sizes. Tips to make your visit a success: 1) It is busy. We went on a Sunday afternoon and it was busy. The food is cooked fresh so it could take a while for your food and the table service isn't the best. When you come in you order automatically if you're doing takeout or sit and wait to be seated for table service. Perhaps takeout would be a quicker option when it's really busy. 2) More than just Chicken. Kimchi fried rice, fries, cheese sticks and much more excellent dishes. Give them a try and explore all they have to offer. Come check out this great tasting Korean BBQ that recently opened.
