I was craving fried chicken and BBQ chicken is hands down the best fried chicken place in Vancouver according to me. They do deliver but their prices go up by crazy for delivery so we decided to go pick it up. I got their jalapeno cheese korean fried chicken this time which was soooo good! It wasn't as spicy as I thought but it was still crispy and perfectly saucy. Also got their fries that are the best. The chicken + 2 fries was good for 3 people. Love their portions! read more

Well, it turns out the best wings in the city are right across the street from me. In fact, they're probably the best wings I've ever had. bb.q offers a variety of wings and boneless chicken, plus quite a few other dishes. I tried the Gangnam Style Chicken and the Caribbean style. Both were excellent. The former had a wet, spicy, slightly sweet sauce, while the latter was more of a Jamaican Jerk preparation. I loved how crispy the coating was around the succulent chicken meat, and the pepper coating was just the right spice level. Truly extraordinary wings! Service was friendly. You order at the counter, and then there are inside and outside seating areas. Note that because the wings are cooked to order, it takes awhile, so allow time. Better yet, enjoy a beer or sake while you wait. read more

This is, by far, the best fried chicken place in Vancouver. Hands down. I've tried lots of other places in the city for years, and my partner and I consistently come back to bb.q. This Robson location is closest to my apartment. We have ordered many takeout orders and have also eaten in a couple times and on their patio a couple times. They're open late until midnight throughout the week and then 1 AM on the weekends, which is great because not enough places are open late. The vibe inside is like 90s retro Korea. K-pop on the tvs playing music, k-decor, and the seating all make you feel like you're in Korea. My favs are the soy garlic or the honey garlic boneless chicken, kimchi fried rice, and fries with garlic mayo or spicy mayo. Tip: if you want to try multiple sauces, you can get the golden fried chicken, which comes with no sauce, and get sides of different sauces so you can dip the chicken. Since we do takeout orders mostly, we get the golden fried chicken + sauces bc by the time we get home and reheat the food, the chicken has lost some of its crispiness if there is sauce on it already. Still delicious, but we prefer the golden fried option bc it keeps the chicken crispier. So if you're going to order takeout, I would recommend that option. The photo is after we placed our takeout order. I sipped a bottle of soju while we hung out and waited for our order to be ready (their orders typically take 20ish min). Hanging out on the patio when the weather is nice is also fun. Save the uber/doordash/skip fees, order directly with them, and go pick it up. You can chill for a bit while you wait. Highly highly recommend if you want a) the best fried chicken in Vancouver, or b) you're wanting to try Korean fried chicken and other fun Korean foods in an authentic Korean atmosphere. read more

My friend and I were hungry and I suggested this place, as I've been before in the US. We shared combo B which came with 3 flavors: original, soy garlic, and cheesling. It was filling and definitely large enough to share between 2 people! So quite a good deal. The flavoring could've been a bit stronger, but the crispiness was perfect. This location id also say had a smaller menu compared to other ones I've visited in the past, but there are still plenty of options to choose from. All in all, friendly service and a great place for a quick bite to satisfy a fried chicken craving. I'd give closer to 4.5/5 overall :) read more

Fried chicken here is crispy, crunchy, lightly battered and so flavourful. They offer a great variety of dipping sauces to keep your chicken fun to eat. The best thing is that I never feel sick after eating the fried foods here! The cheese balls are an interesting concept, but they don't taste like cheese at all. Oh and they play nonstop k-pop on TV for your enjoyment. read more

I LOVE korean fried chicken and loved bb-q from watching K-dramas but I have to give a lower rating now. While they continue to innovate and come out with new flavours (the Galbi flavour is pretty decent - if you don't mind green onions) the ordering system has major kinks in it. The website is confusing, you first have to find a restaurant before finding an online order button hidden at the bottom. Not very friendly on phone. The last time I ordered, I got the order thru then got a call that the place didn't have the salad I wanted. If they don't have it why put it on the menu？ I asked them to just give me partial refund but they couldn't do that. They gave me full refund then asked me to pay for smaller number of items in the store. When I got to store I replaced the salad with a different one that they said they had. After they charged my card, then they immediately said they don't have jt!! Like, WTF？ So in the end I ended up being charged THREE times for my order. Just ridiculous. Not worth it. read more

Vancouver has quite a few Korean style fried chicken places and I finally tried this one during my last trip. This might be the best of the bunch. The whole fried chickens aren't too much or too big for one person (though for two if hungry you might want to get multiple orders), plus I like that they offer steamed rice as a side dish (most places just do fries and similar). The regular recipe has great flavor and the chicken is always really juicy, even the smaller breast pieces. The price at ~$20 for a chicken isn't too bad and sides aren't priced super high either. Staff is always nice and even when I order at the counter the wait isn't terribly long. Dining space is small but inviting, and their small outdoor seating area is nice when the weather cooperates, with a view of Robson Street while not being too close to the sidewalk. BBQ Chicken despite the generic name might be the best Korean fried chicken in the West End and is probably worth a visit. read more

Most tender fried chicken and amazing kimchi fried rice. Highly recommend! And don't forget the point of Sapporo!

Tried out the honey garlic and cheesling fried chicken the other night. Loved the breading and how crispy each piece of boneless chicken was. I liked the sweet and savoury contrast the honey garlic chicken had and prefered it over the cheesling which wasn't as cheesy as I thought it would be despite being covered with cheese powder. Overall service was quick, food was tasty and would come back read more

$11 for 7 wings. It's a good snack (or meal with some type of supplementation), but on the heavy side due to it's deep-fried nature, but the crispy crunchy texture is on point. The soy garlic is indeed garlicky, and the wings of fire flavor is spicy as hell. I got used to it by the 3rd wing, but that initial bite was a surprise! I think I would try different flavors next time. read more

We had such an awful experience at this place. The food was so salty as to be inedible. The chips and coating on the chicken was very heavy. Due to health reasons I could not eat the food there but my family had already ordered. When we visited the place was empty. That should have given us a clue. read more

I was told the robson location has different menu choices than the Coquitlam (smaller menu apparently) and the restaurant space is apparently smaller as well. I was a huge fan of the lemon Cheesling Chicken (was my first time seeing lemon fried chicken) and I was a huge fan! There was nothing particularly special about the Soy Garlic Chicken as well as the Spicy Dukk Bokki (veryyyyy spicy though, not for the faint heart). My only complaint, was that we waited nearly an hour for our fried chicken (ordered on uber eats as a pick up option) and it didn't seem busy at all while we were waiting so I'm not sure what the hold up was. They also forgot our requested pickled radish that would've came with the fried chicken but we didn't notice till we opened the bag when we got to our destination read more

Can be a little pricey but the good always tastes great. Service is great and I often go to various locations.

I dream about their lemon fried chicken every night. Sweet, sour, savoury, crunchy, tender, and not greasy - it's perfect.
