    The chicken was very tasty but I was disappointed that they advertised dine-in as an option but when I arrived with a sista friend , all of the table.and charis were pushed aside. I I quite with the staff and the response was, we're take out only for now. Of note: the restroom was closed off as well! Once you enter, there's supplies piled on either side making one feel closed in. Grab your food and go is what I get from this establishment.

    Galbi Wings

    I'm convinced that I've now found a best fried chicken in Delco candidate here. BB.Q Chicken is the name and they specialize in Korean-style fried chicken. I went with 6 Galbi-flavored wings. The double-fried technique makes this the most perfect crunch in chicken I may have ever tasted. The wings are huge and juicy. The flavoring they describe as, "Sweet, savory and smoky with green onions and a sesame seed garnish," was amazing. If you want hot they have it. But this was loaded with flavor and didn't need heat. They have a website where you can order in advance. They make each order individually and it takes 20 minutes but very worth the wait. It's pickup only so take it into account.

    Spicy Original Wings and Honey Garlic Boneless

    Service: good, just an fyi though they make it fresh so wait time after you order is 20-25 mins if there's not a rush. Food: spicy original wing combo 4.3/5 great crunch, juicy chicken, seasoned well, honey garlic boneless 4.2/5 great crunch, large portion, seasoning was good! Ambiance: a to go spot, contemporary decor Parking: it's upper Darby, it's kinda rough, a lot of transit points there, parking is hard to come by Cost: 2 combos under $30 Overall: definitely going again but would order before arriving as to not wait around

    Love the packaging

    First time here and it was delish! I got the spicy sandwich (the not so spicy one) and it was soooooo good! Fresh and crunch chicken with a tasty Cole slaw, super yummy sweet & spicy sauce, and soft brioche bun. I got the lunch combo wichi ha comes with fries, which were really good and crispy, and a Can drink. The packing was really good and staff was friendly and helpful. I'll be back!

    Crispy fried chicken with tossed in some Korean sauce sauces It was a hit! Good crunchy Korean fried chicken ..got the soy garlic & Gangnam style. The Gangnam style were the best of the two. The soy garlic was a bit on the salty side. Chicken is worth it but there is a long wait time because they get busy (not their fault but does lower my rating to 4 stars). I was told 20-25 mins but ended waiting 40 mins. I'd go back but I'd call ahead next time instead of ordering while there.

    Take out for the first time. Ordered 10 each Bb wings which are listed with 2 hot pepper icons, the honey garlic and Gangnam style. Exceptionally fried, cooked through and crispy on the outside. The BB is not very spicy, would order the 4 hot pepper next time. The honey garlic are sweet, even more than I expected but not too surprising. The Gangnam style are sweet and sour. All good, even very good but not overly remarkable. 4 solid

    I ordered the soondae guk, a traditional Korean blood sausage soup usually served hot in stoneware…read morewith sliced soondae, veggies, and a rich broth. The best thing here is the price -- it's cheap, which is rare for Korean food. The food came out fairly quickly, but since it was served in stoneware, I expected it to be piping hot -- instead, it was just lukewarm. Even worse, the broth was incredibly bland, lacking the depth and seasoning you'd normally expect from this dish. The portion of soondae itself was also disappointing -- maybe 6 inches max, cut up, which felt stingy for a dish centered around it. The banchan (side dishes) included store-bought kimchi and sweet soy peanuts -- nothing special, but not bad either. Overall, it's one of those "you get what you pay for" experiences. The cafeteria-style seating area was a bit dirty, but that's likely not their responsibility. Still, it impacts the overall vibe. Also, no napkins or hand sanitizer available -- both are kept behind the counter, which makes the place feel a bit unwelcoming and overly cautious. After eating, you're expected to place your tray on a rolling cart, which is fair, but reinforces that this is more fast-food than full-service. Overall: A cheap meal that arrives fast, but the soup was bland, the portions were small, and the dining setup could be friendlier.

    If you're looking for a quick, filling, delicious, no-frills lunch, this is your spot! Stopped in…read morehere and ordered the spicy pork bulgogi. I was pleasantly surprised that the meal included a miso soup, side of kimchi, white rice, and boiled peanuts. You can easily split this between two people! The bulgogi was so flavorful and had great heat without being overpowering. I also loved the miso soup. I'd try other items on the menu next time.

    The place is small and parking is difficult... the price is pretty high for the all you can eat…read moreKorean BBQ... If I were comparing this to LA BBQ I would have to give it 1 star... if I were to compare it to NY, GA or even VA K-BBQ then it would get 2 stars. But if you are just judging things from Philly proper... I can give it 3 1/2 stars for the attentiveness of the staff and making sure that all the different meats are available and brought quickly. I just really think for the price, the quality of the meat should be much better. I don't know if people are eating too much and the restaurant needs to compensate for it, but some of the meats were cut too thick and the steak tasted a bit older. The best part of the meal were the 2 stews on the side. They were well seasoned and tasted great! I'll be back to try it again and see if there are any improvements.

The meats were good - in particular I enjoyed the Hawaiian steak, shrimp, and squid. I wish there were more vegetable options than just the mushrooms and onions, since there is just so much meat, but since we ordered the 'unlimited,' we just kept asking our server to bring out more mushrooms and onions. My only complaint is that the same tongs were being used to handle both raw and cooked meat - I always learned growing up to not cross-contaminate, and even when we have hot pot at home and similar dining in other restaurants, there are always at least two sets of utensils for this reason.
