    Original Wings
    Anne P.

    Found this amazing spot while driving by Dublin. We were craving for some chicken wings and this place popped out. We were surprised to see that their chicken wings are bigger than usual. We had the original, galbi and soy garlic. All were awesome but my favorite has to be the soy garlic. Wings were completely smothered in sauce but remained crunchy! The Rose Ddeok-bokki was a perfect side dish. It was on the spicy side though so if you can't bear the heat, maybe skip it this time. Also love the Kimchi Fried Rice. Pairs well with the original-flavored chicken wings. The place was spacious, well-ventilated and tidy. I love that their water dispensers are always full of ice. Staff were fast, attentive and nice. Honestly wish they had a branch closer to home!

    Service was basic online order and pick up. Kimchi fried rice 3/5, too much bell pepper bits, not enough kimchi, not enough spice. Honey Garlic 4/5. Wings were good, drums had thick coating of flour. Well cooked. I ordered 'wings' but they also gave drums. 2/5. Good type of food for to go orders. Place looks suitable for single, group, and family. Very causal.

    Golden Original Wings
    Angeli S.

    Fried chicken! Mmm We ordered 3 flavors: golden original, honey garlic and soy garlic. All were so tasty and fried and crunchy to perfection. My fave was the honey garlic. The garlic and honey flavors were evenly distributed and not super saucy. The soy garlic was good and it didn't taste too sweet like some other places. And the golden original had a good crunch. Ordered these to go and everything came out fresh.

    I didn't realize that there was a bb.q in Dublin until we stopped by on our way home. I really enjoy Korean fried chicken so of course I had to stop by to try it out. I can't remember if I've ever been to a bb.q before, but I felt like it was my first time here. It was 8pm on a Friday evening and was quite packed but there were still a good amount of tables available. The restaurant feels like I ordered two small orders of their wings since I wanted to try two different flavors - Gangnam Style (savory and sweet) and Soy Garlic (soy sauce, garlic, and honey). Both wings were delicious (saucy and crispy on the outside), but I did enjoy the Soy Garlic more since it was savory and garlicky. I thought the Gangnam tasted more medicinal, most likely because of the cinnamon I think was what the staff told me? Overall, a great spot for those who enjoy Korean fried chicken. Their pieces are decently sized too. I would like to try different wing flavors that they have and even other items in their menu.

    The chicken was made to order so fresh & crispy ! We didn't like that the wings weren't tossed in the sauce but basically drizzled on. Bulgogi Japchae was hot , it didn't have mushroom more cabbage & shredded carrots pretty basic & a tad bland . Bonus - everything was hot & fresh . Don't like that you can't split flavors & you have cups for beverages. Suggestion you should have a water dispenser by your cups, they do have water for you to purchase which I think is a tad ridiculous offer your guest complimentary water. I'm sure tour guest's would truly appreciate. Your competitor brings water automatically. It could be that we're just spoiled & use to hospitality at competitor . The cashier was nice , it wasn't too busy there were a couple of tables a total of 4 & a couple of take outs . Fast & casual the interior very clean . Then we went to HMART & got desserts & WOW ! They have a bb.q Chicken in the food court ! Would we come back probable b/c it's convenient but we would rather travel the distance to eat on plates & silverware & not plastic & paper bowls .

    Love how there's so much seating here, its very open and we didn't have to wait for a seat. We got the soy garlic boneless 8 piece chicken and it was so flavorful. It's got a little bit of a kick and was so tender. They give free sides of pickled radish and it goes so well with the chicken. Free gloves are given to eat with and makes the eating experience more enjoyable! Would come again!!

    This was a last minute decision to have a quick lunch here. We had an appt and had to make it quick. This fast food Korean place was nice and open. Still looks new. Very visible from the street and plenty of parking. Staff were ok. We tried their Rose' pasta and small order of asst Garlic wings. So the wings were way too bready and a little fatty but good flavor. The Rose' pasta had no flavor but had a hint of spice. Pretty quick service and decent prices but not sure I would come to eat here again. [7R,2026]

    Ordered dinner online and food was ready by time promised. Online ordering was easy and website was easy to navigate. Restaurant was clean, shared parking lot had enough empty spaces, and an employee helped me quickly. Chicken was juicy and moist and their fries were delicious! Fried potstickers were good and not dry. I would def come back!

    Had a chance to try out this place on a Saturday after lunch rush hour. I was hoping they would do a half and half sauce with 8pc because all the sauces looked interesting. But unfortunately that's a no no. We tried Rose tteokbokki 3.75/5 It's a creamy tteokbokki. A little less spicy than the regular one. But it's yummy. I would prefer the spice level to be a little higher. Secret sauce 8 wings 3.5/5 The batter crunch is amazing. The sauce is yummy but a tad too sweet to me. It has garlic, some sort of citrusy taste (orange?) and pepper. It's listed at 2 fire level but honestly we couldn't taste the spice. The chicken pieces cooked well and tasted very fresh. The pickled raddish tastes just ok, I've had much better one. I don't know if it's because the wings are so sweet that the pickled raddish tastes muted or what. Fries 4/5 These fries are so crunchy. It's one of the best fries we've ever had in the area. Overall it was very enjoyable. The service could be better. I know everything is made fresh to order. However, just to warn people, took our chicken order over 20min to arrive during non rush dining hour. So keep that in mind and don't expect a fast food order experience. Overall I would give the place a 3.75/5

    soy garlic
    Vivian P.

    Glad to see a location in the East Bay! We ordered a small order of the golden original and the soy garlic. Came out piping hot after about 15 minutes. Safe to say the quality is the same - very crispy and flavorful chicken. Comes with side of radish which is a perfect addition. Fries were super crispy. Seating is ample and the restaurant is very clean. Overall, a great experience.

    Came here on Sunday at 6pm and lots of tables open! Easy to order! We got the half and half whole chicken! Great deal!

    bb.q Chicken opened 5ish month ago where Starbucks once was. Walls retrofitted with 5 flatscreens: 3 for sports, 1 for K-pop videos, one for ?. Beer themes, chicken promos on walls. bb.q Chicken has been around for 30 years in S. Korea. Not all Korean Fried Chicken are alike. Each has its unique, artisan cooking techniques. Was acknowledged by service person at counter upon my entry. Ordered. Paid. Food brought to table in 20ish minutes. Not busy. 2 big take out orders ahead of me. Offerings (Chicken): wings, boneless wings, whole chicken, combo specials, Western specials, Korean specials, drinks. Rice bowl, D-deoki-Bokki(rice cake), half & half (chicken/wings) Bites: boneless combo: 6 pieces boneless wings-gang jeong flavor, French fries, Diet Coke (14.99) -French fry-straight cut. Crispy texture, semi-soggy innards. -boneless wings had "wet" texture, sauce added after frying process. No "crispy" crunch. 2 star spicy not too spicy, had sweet & soy sauce ambiance. Innards very juicy/tender. More like a "tender" than boneless wing. Very fresh tasting from fresh refrigerated chicken, not frozen. 4.5 stars Worthy. Quality: unique boneless wings similar to "tenders". Quantity: similar to other KFC. Pricier, takes longer to prepare. *parking lanes very narrow. Use caution.

What shocked me is that they serve us a huge portion of desserts especially the green tea ice cream. I thought that it's only going to be one scoop but they gave us 3! I think the one scoop is for someone's birthday? I don't know. And the vanilla ice cream with grilled pineapple is so yummy and it had a lot of cinnamon flavor I believe. It's one of the best vanilla ice creams I'd ever had. I probably never tasted vanilla ice cream that good before! I also appreciate the staff for helping with us with our orders! They were so helpful and kind to us. If I ever bring my friends over, it'd be this place. I highly recommend for others to try this place because the food here is really amazing!
