They were so rude. Me and my friend ordered online and asked if we can dine in and she said yes. So 5 mins in, they kicked us out. Apparently, anyone who orders online can't dine in. Like we asked if it was okay and she said yes! We felt extremely uncomfortable and decided to leave! Rude! read more

I have been here only once, and that too for a carry out order of spicy Korean wings. I had known of bb.q Chicken before going to this establishment. They are a Seoul based international Korean fried chicken chain restaurant that serve delicious fried chicken. In my visit to this establishment, I ordered the eight (8) count of their Wings of Fire sauce fried chicken wings as I was in the mood for something pretty spicy. I asked if the wings could be made saucy and crispy, and I was told that they made them in just one way. Since the wings are freshly made to order, I was informed that there would be about 15 - 20 minutes wait before order pick-up. That wasn't a problem for me. My order was ready as informed. I had my wings soon after pick-up while they were hot and fresh. The wings looked super delicious and tasted as such as well. They were saucy, crispy, and meaty. Their flavor was very good, and the spice level was too my liking. The Wings of Fire sauce was finger licking good. Yum! I couldn't get enough of it. The wings hit the spot. It was money well spent. I loved them. Although I don't eat much breaded chicken these days, I world certainly go back here to try other sauces based wings. If you haven't checked out this establishment, then definitely give them a try or more. read more

They have a lot of chicken varieties to choose from. Their chicken tastes good compared to other chicken restaurants. Their service is fast and also you can dine in too. Try them and you'll love them! read more

Excellent chicken. I usually go with the traditional Galbi wings but today, I went with the half and half boneless. The original recipe is good. Great to dunk with sauces and the secret sauce boneless is very good as well. Service is great when I order online. This place has great food! read more

Fried chicken....not bbq chicken? Perhaps we tried the safe option of choosing the fried chicken with the sauce on the side since some of the descriptions had us fearing for our tastebuds. I like some heat and their special sauce was sweet and tangy as described. The honey garlic was too vinegary for me. It's likely authentic but I'm not a fan of guessing what part of the chicken I'm looking at when you get a whole bird. Breasts cut in threes look a lot like thighs and definitely don't taste the same either. The pot stickers were above average but the radish side was extremely vinegary. Service was passable and price reasonable. I'll keep exploring the area! read more

This chicken is phenomenal! I have been looking everywhere for a quality chicken wing and this is my new spot. Its a small place with two tables inside, so it's definitely more of a takeout place, but the staff we're friendly and helpful. We got the whole golden chicken and the spicy galbi wings(bone in). It took about 30 minutes, so place your order ahead of time if your in a hurry, but this is worth the wait. The chicken is juicy and not greasy at all, and it has a perfect crunch from the breading. The Golden chicken is perfect and let's the chicken shine by not over seasoning it. It's different from southern fried chicken, so if your looking for that flavor try elsewhere. This is Korean fried chicken, and it's done just right. The wings were just the right amount of heat and the flavor of the sauce was fantastic. They manage to be perfectly crispy even with the sauce coating them, an impressive achievement as most wings would lose that crunch after 2 minutes. Both orders came with a side of pickled radishes, a nice bright and tasty palate cleanser that helped tap down the heat from my wings. We got an order of coleslaw that was just okay, but with the pickled radishes on the side we didn't need it anyway. My only issue (and the reason its not 5 stars) was my order of wings was all drumettes, literally there was only 1 flat in the order. Normally that would be a big deal for me, but it was so good that I got over it quickly. Overall this place is great and I plan to come back and try every flavor they have. read more

We came here for a late lunch, we put our order in and it took 25 minutes(will called in our order next time)! We ordered two types of wings, Soy Garlic $13.95 and Gang Jeong $13.95 (medium size 9 wings)! I was truly surprised on how good the chicken wings tasted! The skin was crispy, I can taste the soy and garlic, and the Gang Jeong wings are spicy and sweet! It really wasn't too spicy at all! They also have a lunch boneless combo(6 wings) which includes French Fries and a soda for $10.95! It was a very pleasant surprise to find a good fried chicken place in the burbs! I will be going back to try other flavors! read more

I think the shop got a few new opening kinks to work through... Doordashed 3 items, only 1 showed up. Hubby drove to get the rest...sorta defected the purpose of delivery, isn't it? Food, however, is a solid 4 stars...the original chicken is crunchy and tender. Avoid secret spicy if you want any mild spicy chicken! It's NOT spicy at all...a mere ketchups glazed...the rice cake is really good! Spicy, chewy, good mouth feel! I would be back for the food...maybe not doordashing in the time being :p read more

We got take out from bb.q because there's really not a lot of seating. We got 4 types sauce: the golden original, honey garlic, galbi and soy garlic. The wings are nicely breaded, good amount of sauce and flavorful. The outside is nicely crispy. Definitely coming back for more wings. read more

Very friendly service and tastes great! I ordered the spicy galbi and French fries. It's a little small restaurant tucked away by a busy street so only 2 tables for dine in. read more

Small establishment with only two tables, but put out some really delicious chicken. I tried the honey garlic option and it was great. I just wish they had a bone-in lunch special option instead of just boneless. That would have made it 5 . The sides are great and so is the chicken. I recommend it. read more

It is very good, crunchy, fresh and big portions. The cashier was pleasant and the service was fast. I ordered pick up so dining experience but will definitely go back on this location, a lot more choices as well than the Waukegan location. read more

Crispy and flavorful! The spice levels are good, not overwhelming. I like the secret sauce the most. I've had their Ddeok Bokki before, and that has a great kick after several bites. read more

Tell me why they don't give radish to "DoorDash" orders when I ordered off their website. Don't bother coming to this one, go to the Waukegan location. What's Korean fried chicken without the radish?! Disappointed is an understatement. read more

This is the third location I have tried and I can confidently say it is my favorite for service and taste! My typical order is a half order of secret sauce chicken, veggie dumplings and rice. This location has the most flavorful secret sauce! I can just drizzle some of that sauce on rice and finish a bowl easily! The chicken is juicy and well cooked. I love how crispy the skin is. Surprisingly it does not get soggy either. Other places I have tried the chicken has a little gamey taste and skin isn't crispy. But this location has always been consistent with the quality. I've ordered online and over the phone and ready times are always prompt. The lady at the front desk is always friendly and the service is consistent, no matter how busy she gets. I've never had any issues with orders here either. This location is smaller than the other places but there's still adequate space for groups of 4. There's 2 tables that can fit 4 chairs each, I think. There's plenty of parking available in the plaza. It's in such a convenient location, there's plenty of shops next door as well. read more

Got takeout. A little pricey but totally worth it! BB wings had the perfect amount of spice. Honey garlic were crunchy and perfect amount of garlic and sweet. Wings were fried perfectly with a light crunchy batter and super juicy meat on the inside. I was surprised the chicken travelled really well. Even leftovers next day after warming up in the oven was delicious. Looking forward to trying more flavors. read more

The place was very tiny inside but we were the only ones there so, it wasn't a big deal. The cashier was friendly. The food was delicious. Only problem was that they charge a 15% fee for eating inside. I found that to be odd. read more

I've been to quite a few bb.q chicken franchises. This was my least favorite thus far. It's an extremely small establishment so we weren't expecting much. The cashier that took our order looked so sad about being there. You are automatically charged 20% for dining in, I've never heard of this before. We ordered two small 8 piece wings which usually come with a small container of the pickled radishes and she was adamant that it only came with one so we ordered a second. She didn't check on us, didn't give us more water after we finished the jug and didn't bid us farewell. For paying a required 20% gratuity, some form of service would have been appreciated. read more

Great ambiance and atmosphere! We are from LA and we're excited to have this franchise in the midwest read more

The garlic honey and special spicy sauce is very good. The regular fried chicken definitely lacks flavor. Overall a good alternative to regular fried chicken. read more

The best Korean-style fried chicken in town! I tried several other places around Vernon Hills and this is the best place there are. I do recommend placing an order in person or over the phone vs. ordering through Yelp, as prices are more expensive if you order directly on Yelp. I told this to the owner of this place and they had no idea. My recommendation from this place is their Cheeselings :) read more

Best Korean fried chicken. We tried a number of others, but BBq ruled. Perfectly crispy and garlicky (get the honey garlic or soy garlic). The kimchi fried rice is delicious too. I'll maybe take a half star off for the no personality lady who works there, but, as I usually get takeout, she doesn't bum me out too much. read more

Did a quick pick up. Efficient, reasonably priced and delicious fried wings! Will definitely go back.

To start off, to not sound biased I will say the chicken is decent. However, everything else was terrible here. There was one lady working in the front who was terrible. She was so rude to us for no reason. She would not let us sit inside even for a couple minutes to eat (even though the store was empty) and would not give us any silverware. She was just telling us to leave because we ordered carry out. I never write reviews but this was the worst restaurant experience ever. Such a cold women working in the front. WOULD NOT RECOMMEND COMING HERE. Go to the one in Arlington Heights. The store has such a sad vibe to it as well. read more
